When the two figures appeared at the entrance of the village, Yun Cuihe finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly waved to them.
"Xinghe, Yueyue, you are finally back."
"mother."
When the two of them saw Yun Cuihe waiting at the door, they both walked faster.
After entering the courtyard, Chu Yue hurriedly introduced to Yun Cuihe, "Mom, this is the master introduced to me by Dr. Zhu. His surname is Zhang. I'm afraid he will have to stay at our house for the time being."
Wang Xuelan, who was not far away, heard this and said hurriedly: "Hey, we are still an honored guest. My third daughter-in-law, hurry up and give Dr. Zhang a glass of water."
Yun Cuihe sighed, asked Zhang Zheng to sit down in the yard, and then poured water into the kitchen.
The family had a simple meal, and after the workers left, Chu Yue brought a cup of tea and knelt down in front of Zhang Zheng respectfully.
"Master, please have tea."
Zhang Zheng calmed down and reached out to take the tea brought by Chu Yue and took a sip before saying, "They say that master brings you in, and cultivation depends on oneself. In the future, I will teach you what I know, but I can How much you understand depends on your own destiny."
After a pause, he continued, "No matter how many things you can master, I will always have only one request for my apprentice, and that is the original intention. You must not use the skills you have learned to do harm to others. Once you find out, you will No longer my disciple."
Chu Yue listened carefully, and at the end, she nodded sincerely.
"Disciples have remembered this and will definitely live up to Master's instructions in the future."
Zhang Zheng smiled and said, "Get up."
Chu Yue kowtowed three times before getting up from the ground.
This is considered a formal apprenticeship.
Yun Cuihe on the side asked quickly, "Doctor Zhang, I wonder how much money my family will have to pay to study medicine with you every month?"
Zhang Zheng waved his hand, "There's no need for Shu Xiu. I'm not good at yellow and white things. I just have to take care of the food."
Hearing this, Lu Yufang, who was originally envious of Chu Yue, was startled, wondering why Yue Yue, a master with such great medical skills, couldn't even get along with someone who stutters?
Can a doctor be so poor?
Suddenly she didn't yearn for the doctor that much.
The rest of the people just thought that Zhang Zheng was embarrassed to be a monk because he saw that his family was poor, so they thought that when Doctor Zhang was around in the future, they would just entertain him.
Lu Tiesheng hurriedly ordered: "Fourth daughter-in-law, go and clean up a house for Dr. Zhang to live in. The third daughter-in-law's new house has just been completed and will be vacant for a few days. She needs to let the smell in the house dissipate before moving in." "
Jiang Xiuqin nodded quickly, "Okay."
Then he looked at Yun Cuihe and said, "Third daughter-in-law, while it's still daylight, you should go back early. Don't have to walk in the dark at night."
Yun Cuihe stood up hurriedly, "Hey, okay dad, Doctor Zhang, please take care of me."
Lu Tiesheng patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, dad is here to take good care of Brother Zhang."
Zhang Zheng tugged on his beard and looked at Lu Tiesheng.
"Wait a minute, which one of us is older?"
Lu Tiesheng chuckled, "It doesn't matter who is bigger, you are more capable than me anyway, so I won't lose anything if I call you brother."
Zhang Zheng raised his eyebrows, "Is this a question of loss or loss? If you are older than me, wouldn't you call me old if you call me brother?"
"How? You are obviously older than me."
Seeing the two old men blushing because of their age, everyone present covered their mouths and laughed.
Wang Xuelan and Yun Cuihe winked, indicating that they should go home first, and then went inside.
When I was young, I used to compete to be the boss, but now that I am older, I compete to be the younger brother. This man is really childish sometimes.
Yun Cuihe led Lu Xinghe and others away from the old house. When they passed by a well in the village, they saw four or five women standing under a big tree not far from the well, chatting. As they passed by, their eyes changed. He also glanced in their direction intentionally or unintentionally.
"There are only two wells for drinking water in our village. Today, one of them can no longer draw water, and the water level of the other one is obviously much lower. I don't know if there is any unlucky person coming to the village recently."
"Really, these two wells have been used in our village for hundreds of years, why did they suddenly dry up?"
"Hey! If you ask me, we have to find this kind of broom star and drive it out. We don't want to harm the people in our village for nothing."
"Hey, who are you talking about as the broom star?"
"Who else could it be? Whoever's family has added a new member in the last two or three months, that's the fault of that family."
Originally, Yun Cuihe didn't want to pay attention to it, but after hearing what these women said became more and more outrageous, she took a few steps back.
"Chen family, Lu family, and Lin family, what do you mean by what you just said? We all live in Banpo Village. We have no grudges in the past and no grudges in the recent days. But don't gossip behind people's backs."
A woman rolled her eyes and said, "Why are you just talking nonsense? What we said is right. The wellbore is dry. Maybe it's a disaster coming to our Banpo Village."
Yun Cuihe's body is now stronger and her temper is much stronger than before. Seeing the woman glance again and again in the direction of Chu Yue, she hurriedly pinched her waist and said, "Originally, this year has been particularly dry. Maybe it's underground. The river may have dried up, so why is it an ominous person and a disaster star? Your hut was not built well and you crawled out? It's full of excrement."
After saying that, he even took a sip at her.
The woman got angry and said, "You are such a nosy bitch. When we were talking here, did we mention you by name or something? Did you even start scolding people?"
"Who are you talking about? You know what? Or you just close the door and whisper in a low voice. Don't let me hear you. Are you really thinking that I can't hear you when you are criticizing Huai one by one?"
The woman's voice became louder and louder, "It's a fact that the well is dry. There are fifty or sixty households in Banpo Village. How come your family is the only one who is better off? Isn't this obvious? Maybe it's our village. All my good luck has been sucked away by your family."
When Yun Cuihe heard this, she immediately got a little excited. She pointed at the woman and cursed, "Who said such nonsense to you? I will tear his mouth apart."
There were only these two wells in the village, and now there were dry lotus ponds everywhere, and there was nowhere to fetch water. This shrew made it clear that she didn’t want her family to fetch water from the well, and this was really going to end her life.
The noise of several people attracted all the people nearby, including the three sisters-in-law Wang Xuelan and Jiang Xiuqin. After the few people understood the situation, they started scolding each other with their words.
Tian Chunyan raised her eyebrows and looked at Mr. Lin who was causing trouble, her eyes full of sarcasm.
"Hey! Lin Xiangtao, it's not enough to show off in front of the head of my family and I punished you in the past. Now you come here to talk nonsense again? I'm sorry that all the traditional virtues of Nanyuan Kingdom have died on your face? How can people be so careless? Face?"
