MTL - Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World-Chapter 595 apprenticeship
Gu Jingyun stopped, looked up at the deserted sunshine in the sky, and said with a small smile, "Then let's take a detour for the next two days."
Erlin and Dongfeng hurriedly stopped their work and saluted Gu Jingyun, Erlin whispered: "The New Year is not over yet, it will definitely snow in the future, I'm afraid we will have to detour until February next year."
Gu Jingyun withdrew his gaze, glanced at the smudges on the wheel, shook his head and said, "No."
Erlin saw that the master had left these words and left, his husband-in-law turned his head in confusion and asked Dongfeng, "What do you mean by this, master?"
"You ask me who I ask?"
The capital just had a heavy snowfall. Although the sun came out, it didn't have much temperature. Instead, it made people feel colder.
The main street is cleaned by handymen hired by the yamen, and then the snow is shoveled into the car to be transported away, while the other streets are cleaned in front of the door by each house, and the snow is piled under the trees or on both sides. If you walk, you will shovel to the side of the road if you are not careful, so that the snow will not melt into water, and it will be stained when you step on it. Moreover, on such a cold day, it is easy to form thin ice after the snow melts into water. When people step on it, water is underneath. , the above is thin ice, and it is easy to fall.
The child is fine, the three-headed body hurts at most, but the adult may break a bone or even die.
Therefore, it is common knowledge for almost every family to sweep the snow in front of the door, but these families in the second half of Lingsheng Street obviously do not have this understanding.
Ever since Gu Jingyun settled down on Lingsheng Street, they can count the number of days they shovel snow every winter with two slaps.
The situation this year was good, because Mr. Gu's students came here to sweep the snow not long after the snowfall. Most of the street in Lingsheng Street was swept by Chu Yi and Chu Yu. Sweep clean.
The people in the second half of Lingsheng Street were happy, saying that Mr. Gu's students are really good children, and then Chu Yi and Chu Yu didn't come today, and other people consciously took their own brooms and went out to sweep the snow. The doors of those houses were silent, and there was no movement at all.
The next day, Chu Yi and Chu Yu still didn't come, and the New Year was approaching, so everyone had to prepare the New Year's goods. When other people went out and saw the snowy road that was already muddy, they sighed and then took a detour.
Those families also opened the door, glanced at the road in front of the door tangled, and finally took out the stone and stepped out the door as before.
On the third day, Chu Yi and Chu Yu still didn't come. Someone couldn't help but ran to Gu's house to ask, "Why don't those two students from Mr. Gu come to sweep the snow?"
Old Li Tou, the gatekeeper, got the master's order early, and said slowly: "Students are also celebrating the New Year. The academy is on vacation, and they all went home."
"Isn't that road going to be closed again?"
"Everyone sweeps the snow in front of their door. As long as everyone obeys this rule, how can the road be blocked?"
These words were passed on to those families. This street is a neighborhood. When they came out, they were looked at with strange eyes. They were almost drowned by euphemistic advice and bitter irony. They were very thick-skinned. Sometimes can't stand it.
Moreover, they have already enjoyed the convenience of the smooth roads, and it is difficult for them to endure such dirty roads.
When the sun rises in the new day, a few families can't help but come out with shovels and brooms to sweep the snow with everyone. Although so-so, the road is open again.
When Chu Yu and Chu Yi came out of Gu Mansion again, they didn't need to take a detour. They looked at each other and Chu Yi asked, "Brother, you said that Mr. Gu asked us to sweep the snow here to train and test us, or to educate us. How many families are these?"
Chu Yu thought of being questioned about her knowledge and being buried in the test papers these days, she couldn't help but sighed and shook her head: "I don't know."
Chu Yi couldn't help but sigh.
In the past few days, their nerves were tense, thinking that Mr. Gu would decide whether to accept them as disciples after finishing the examination papers, but they were still thinking too well.
Mr. Gu took the test paper but threw a book to each of them and asked them to take it back and read it. When he came to the door the next day, he began to inquire about knowledge. Do not open your mouth to accept them as disciples.
The heartstrings of the two of them were tense. Seeing the changes on this road today, the two of them were even more unsure that what Gu Jingyun had done before was really the level they set up to accept them as apprentices?
Maybe it’s really to solve the stubborn ailments on this road?
The next day, the two of them came to the door with a little bit of confidence that they had done their homework. Chu Yi was okay, he was only eleven years old and could keep working hard, but Chu Yu couldn't help but be shaken. , he wasn't sure that he could hold on to Gu Jingyun's mouth.
Both stood silently in front of the Gu residence, Chu Yi turned to look at Chu Yu and said, "Senior brother, let's go."
Chu Yu didn't move.
Chu Yi stretched out his hand to grab his hand and said solemnly, "Mr. Gu said that there is no end to learning, and I also think that reading is not just about getting into the jinshi examination. My second uncle also said that as long as you persevere, you will always get something, even if you can't achieve it. Even if you reach your original goal, you won't stick to it for nothing. Senior brother, haven't you made progress during this time?"
The hesitation on Chu Yu's face gradually disappeared. He learned a lot from Gu Jingyun in class, but he learned more from him. Chu Yi was right. Even if he failed to ask Gu Jingyun as his teacher in the end, he actually Can also learn a lot.
He smiled gratefully at Chu Yi and stepped forward to knock on the door.
Lao Li opened the door and grinned when he saw the two of them, "The two young masters are here, come in quickly, the master has been waiting for you."
"Sir, are you waiting for us?" Chu Yu and Chu Yi looked at each other with curiosity.
Old Li Tou smiled and nodded, "Yes, it was passed down early in the morning that if the two young masters came, they would go to the flower hall to find him."
In the flower hall, Gu Jingyun was listening to An An reciting the Three Character Classic with a smile, while Li Baolu was planning to check the accounts.
The end of the year, the Grange shop and the mansion's account books have to be checked, and this year, Master and mother-in-law went to Yazhou to celebrate the New Year, and she had to calculate Master's share of the dividend and send it to them.
Tourism is also very expensive, especially for comfortable and comfortable travel.
Chu Yu and Chu Yi first gave Li Baolu a salute when they entered the door, and then stood aside respectfully, waiting for An An to finish reciting a paragraph of "Three Character Classic" before they came forward to greet Gu Jingyun.
Gu Jingyun patted An An's head, pulled her aside to stand, and then looked up at the two people in front of him.
Chu Yu was born in a poor family, and he stood proud in a light-colored cloth. His talent was not very good, but Gu Jingyun admired his strategy theory, which is an article that can best understand a person's personality.
As for Chu Yi, Gu Jingyun felt that the child was brave and very lucky. Not everyone who falls into the hands of traffickers can be rescued, and not everyone who suffers such an injury can survive.
He is brave, determined, and has great luck and talent. These four points are enough for him to make a difference.
Even if these two do not worship him as a teacher, their future achievements will not be low.
Gu Jingyun took a sip of tea, and the two people standing in the hall tensed their backs at the same time, only to feel their spines tremble.
Gu Jingyun put down the teacup, the eyes of the two of them could not help falling on the table along the teacup, and a heart was raised high.
"You two are very good, you are willing to worship me as a teacher and be my disciple..."
"Yes!" The two of them nodded vigorously before Gu Jingyun finished speaking, for fear that there would be a turning point behind him.
Gu Jingyun couldn't help but chuckle and said, "What I can give you is not as much as you think. Except for knowledge, I am very stingy, but don't think that when you enter my door, you are the same door as the emperor, you can go straight to the sky."
Chu Yu knelt down with a serious face and said, "Sir, students don't dare to feel this way, I just want to learn from the teacher, so that I will be worthy of the world, the king, the people, and my parents and ancestors in the future."
Chu Yi also knelt down quickly, he murmured for a long time, and finally blushed: "Sir, knowledge is priceless, and what Mr. teaches us is the most precious."
Gu Jingyun nodded slightly, "Then you should do the apprentice salute."
Hearts came forward with two cups of tea, Chu Yu and Chu Yi offered tea to Gu Jingyun, and they all kowtowed and called "Sir".
Then he went to kowtow to Li Baolu and offered tea, and called out "Shi Niang".
Li Baolu was already prepared, one of them gave them a big red envelope, and said with a smile: "I have already prepared this red envelope, but your husband has not made up his mind, so I have not been able to take it out. I finally gave it today. Senior brother lives not far away, you can come to visit later. Second senior brother, he is currently trapped in the deep palace, and we will see you later. As for third senior brother and your senior sister, they will go home and will come after the year. They are not allowed to despise them when they are young."
Chu Yu said no, and Chu Yi said that at his age, there is no obstacle at all for sister and brother Qu Weizhen to be senior and junior.
An An ran to her mother and squeezed hard in front of Chu Yu and Chu Yi, looking at them with bright eyes.
Chu Yu gave her a slight smile, An An was younger than his daughter, so she couldn't help but want to pay for a gift.
Chu Yi saw that Chu Yu had given it all, so he also began to dig out his wallet.
An An looked at the silver handed to him, and couldn't help but puffed up her cheeks, straightened her chest and said, "I want to call you Senior Sister!"
Chu Yu and Chu Yi felt a thunder strike, and they were stunned.
Seeing that they were gone, An An turned around aggrieved and threw herself into her mother's arms, shouting, "It's clear that I started before them, why didn't they call me senior sister?"
Li Baolu was also silent to her daughter who was about to turn two years old.
An An immediately cried out with a "wow" when she saw that her mother was not comforting her.
Gu Jingyun's face flashed with distress, and he took three steps forward to pick up his daughter, and said to the two new apprentices: "An An has been enlightened by me since she could speak, and now she can memorize half of the Three Character Classic. ."
Chu Yu held it back for a long time, and finally whispered "Second Senior Sister" to the child in her husband's arms. After all, Chu Yi was so young that she didn't react for a while, she raised her head and stared at An An.
