"Master, we have arrived at Duke Weiyuan's residence."
Outside the carriage, the waiter's calm and respectful voice came, and Xu Shoufu suddenly opened his eyes.
"Master, we've arrived at Master's residence," Minghua said.
"Yes." Xu Chieffu nodded, "Get off the carriage."
Minghua opened the curtain and got out of the carriage first; Xu Shoufu got out from behind, and the boy stretched out his hand to help her, "Master, be careful."
"Master."
"Master."
Ji Jin and Cui Changhe led their respective servants forward, received the courtesy first, and then stood aside quietly.
Xu Shoufu nodded lightly and led them to Duke Weiyuan's Mansion. As a frequent visitor to the mansion and a disciple of his old master, they entered the Duke's Weiyuan Mansion smoothly without being informed.
"Master." Entering the old man's courtyard and seeing him in the main room, Xu Shoufu bowed to him first.
No matter how high his official position was, Xu Shoufu always adhered to his duty as a disciple.
"Teacher Public Security Bureau."
"Shizuan."
Minghua and his two senior brothers greeted each other, then the senior brothers of Xu Shoufu's generation greeted each other in the hall; then Minghua and other junior disciples greeted each other; and finally, Minghua and other junior disciples greeted each other. .
We all knew each other yesterday, but today we don’t have to introduce ourselves so much. Minghua can roughly remember these people, except for the ones she knows, she doesn’t know them.
"Minghua."
Minghua followed the sound and saw that the person calling her was her husband. She hurriedly left and walked to him, "Master, are you calling me?"
The old man smiled kindly, "I called you. Are you still used to living in your master's house? No one bullies you, right?"
"It's very good. The master took good care of me and considered every aspect. The master gave me two rooms as a gift the day before yesterday, but it helped me a lot. I got two new yards. I don't know when my mother and I will be able to clean it." When I came out to move in, I had two rooms with servants, and my mother moved in the day before yesterday." I said this without adding to it, speaking it truthfully.
"That's good. You're still young. If you have any problems, go to your master. You can't resist alone. It's true that you are smart, but you are still young and you still need a lot of help. You have to learn to let others share the burden for you. "At such a young age, I was forced to become an all-rounder.
Xu Shoufu raised his eyelids and looked at the eaves. He didn't have much of a disciple, right? The master came out and said these words; it can be seen that the gap between male disciples and female disciples, the disciples under the names of senior brothers have never been treated so well.
"Yes, Master, I listen to you; if you have anything to do in the future, please contact the master and senior brothers." She planned to be good and at least win over the elders' hearts. "Master, after the banquet was over yesterday, I asked the senior brother to help me print the sales message. Book; when the time comes, I will give 20% to Senior Brother, and the rest will be mine."
"Oh?" The old man and others turned to Ji Jin one after another.
Ji Jin straightened his back slightly and replied solemnly, "It is indeed true. The storybook written by my junior sister is very interesting. Although it is not a popular storybook nowadays, it is unconstrained and very exciting. It tells the story of ancient mythology."
"Have you brought it?" This is the focus of the old man's attention.
Minghua said: "Give it to senior brother."
The old man stared at Ji Jin.
Ji Jin was furious. Master had never paid so much attention to him before. He shook his head and said, "Master, the script has been printed. I will send you a copy first after it is printed. Do you think it's feasible?"
"Boy from the Ji family, don't forget about your uncle." Ning Fang, who was sitting at the old man's desk, spoke in time.
Dean Fan said happily: "I can't be left out."
"Give me a copy as well, so that I can read the masterpieces of our little nephew and see the children's imagination." Luo Mingsheng, the fourth uncle, had a short beard, bright eyes, a majestic and elegant demeanor, and a lot of ridicule in his words. meaning.
Minghua was generous enough to let them tease her. She didn't think there was anything wrong with the story she wrote, but because it was written in advance and then polished. It was definitely better than the previous three books, which were handed over to the bookstore owner after they were written. She didn't even polish her pen seriously.
Ji Jin responded repeatedly, "Yes, I will print it out and send it to all the elders as soon as possible."
When all the elders were satisfied, the old man asked again, "Minghua, my master didn't attend the apprenticeship banquet yesterday. Are you dissatisfied with your master?"
"No." Minghua shook her head without thinking, "Master must have some motives for not coming. Although I don't know the reason, I won't be dissatisfied with Master."
Xu Shoufu smiled slightly, but quickly stopped.
The old man was very satisfied with her answer. He didn't look like she was trying to deal with him. "Good boy, if you don't understand something in the future, just come to the master. If your master dares to treat you badly, come to the master too. The master will give you some advice." You decide."
"Thank you, Master, but Master will not treat me badly." His innocent eyes were clear and pure, as if he could see through the darkness of the world at a glance.
"Good boy." The old man took off a jade pendant from his body, "Here's this for you, take it. If you have any difficulty, you can go to the shop with the patterns engraved on the jade pendant for help; they will spare no effort to help you when they see the jade pendant."
Ning Fang and Luo Mingsheng's eyes flickered slightly. Their disciples and grandchildren didn't know the importance of this jade pendant, but they knew it.
My husband once accompanied the late emperor's holy cavalry and saved his cavalry many times. He was awarded a gold medal to avoid death, a title, a high official and a generous salary, and this jade pendant. The pattern on the jade pendant seemed to have other meanings, but the old man never said it, so they had no way of knowing.
The only thing I know is that the pattern on the jade pendant represents the old man's private property. All shops with patterns on the jade pendant were developed by the old man.
Of course, these are only on the surface. No one knows how much property the old man has secretly.
"Master, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to give such a valuable thing to Minghua." So many disciples and disciples were watching.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Shoufu choked. He couldn't say that you were trying to stir up trouble for Minghua. Minghua had just become a disciple and not only got the master's black and white jade plaque, but now he also got the master's industrial chain symbol. I won’t say what these disciples and descendants think, but if the descendants of the Duke know about it, Minghua will be in constant trouble.
"You can't say it, can you?!" The old man snorted coldly, "I am willing to give it to Minghua, let alone a token, it is not a bad idea to even give Minghua my property; you disciples, each of you is a good thing. In my hand, my little disciple is poor and useless."
Xu Shoufu was slightly embarrassed.
Dean Fan said with a smile: "Third junior brother, the master gave it to him as he gave it. It was the master's sincerity. It was also the master who was compensating Minghua. Yesterday, Minghua paid homage to the master, and it was not convenient for the master to be there. After all, it caused people's imagination. Although the master did not have anything else to do, he said with a smile. I mean, after all, I owe Minghua."
"Yes, that's what it is." He insisted that it was like this, and gave the third disciple a disgusted look, "As long as you are cautious, I will give my things to whomever I want; if someone comes to ask me for an order, see if I can't kill him .”
Xu Shoufu was too lazy to argue anymore. He couldn't change what his master had decided.
