Chapter 19 Apprenticeship
Author: Yueyinyin
The night is getting darker and everything is silent.
Mr. Zhou squinted his sore eyes, lowered his head and noticed the ink-stained letters on the table, and sighed deeply.
He picked up the paper and balled it up, then spread out a new piece of letter paper, picked up the pen and carefully wrote word for word:
[Lu Yao’s nephew arrived in Qinghe in mid-February, accompanied by four people.
One of the boys surnamed Song is a disciple of Mr. Piyou and a disciple of ancient medicine. He also has some connections with me. Unfortunately, he was poisoned by a strange poison. He is a mirror flower of the Miao Kingdom. He is afraid that his time will be short. This boy has outstanding talents and a tough mind.
, it is a pity that such a young and heroic man died young. I hope that my senior brother, out of the spirit of friendship, can find a senior Wangyou for that child.
They will pass through Luyinmen on this trip. If you have any news, please send it to Master Yanfeng, and I will also send a letter explaining the situation.】
After writing this, Zhou Laoben was about to stop writing. Then he thought about something else. He frowned slightly, looking angry, and then wrote:
[Nephew Lu Yao is really naughty. He not only demolished my roof, but also secretly drank my secret wine. How unbecoming of me to chase after him even at my age!
I also hope that Junior Sister Yuying will discipline her well and not pamper her children.]
After finishing writing angrily, Mr. Zhou twirled his beard and thought again and again. After thinking about Yuying's bad temper, he added another sentence:
[After all, Lu Yao’s nephew is young, so it’s normal for him to be a bit naughty. Junior sister should talk to him nicely and not use force.]
After stopping writing, Mr. Zhou waited for the ink to dry, folded and rolled up the letter paper, put it into a small bamboo tube, tied it to the leg of the homing pigeon that had been waiting for a long time by the window, smoothed the hair, and said softly: "Go!"
The homing pigeon cooed twice, spread its wings and disappeared into the darkness.

Early the next morning, after Chu Lian Dong washed up, she went to the kitchen to do some work. It was just a pretext to see what was for breakfast, but in fact it was to avoid people.
The events of last night were still fresh in her mind, and she firmly refused to admit that the person who followed her like a demon could be her.
Oh my god!
She actually imagined that she was a female scholar, and Song Jibai was the male monster who seduced her! Such a fragrant plot was imagined from her extremely pure brain.
Chu Liandong wailed and covered her face with both hands. Red clouds covered her covered face, and she could only see a little through her hot ears.
The cook who was kneading the dough was startled by her and asked cautiously: "Is the girl okay?"
It was still impossible for Chu Liandong to show her face, and she replied in a muffled voice: "It's okay, ma'am, don't worry about me, I'll just stay by myself for a while!"
The cook was always a gossip, and seeing her young age, she took a curious look at her. She didn't know what she thought of, and while working, she joked: "Isn't the girl having a sweetheart? Otherwise, why is her face so red?"
!”
I don't know what connection these words opened. Chu Lian stood up suddenly and fell into some kind of mysterious state.
Something's wrong!
She thought that Chu Liandong had been single for more than 20 years and had never been attracted to any man during this period. How could she fall in love with Song Jibai in just a few days?
Her brain was running rapidly, and she carefully recalled the entire experience of last night, not letting go of any detail, from seeing the person to leaving...
Great! Nothing wrong at all!
Hiss...this is embarrassing.
It shouldn’t be!
The expressions on Chu Lian Dong's face changed back and forth, which was really exciting. She could see the little cook next to her having her heart pounding, and she thought to herself: This girl has a good appearance, but she doesn't look very energetic.
How's that?
She didn't care what image she had in the eyes of others, so she ran away in a hurry.
In the courtyard, Jiang Lingxu was talking to Mr. Zhou who was doing Tai Chi. When he saw Chu Liandong running past in a hurry, he quickly called someone to stop him.
"Little sister! Ji Bai was looking for you just now! He's at the pavilion. Go quickly and don't make people wait."
After listening, Chu Lian stopped moving. She thought for a moment, walked to Mr. Zhou, and imitated him, slowly practicing Tai Chi.
A big watermelon, cut in the middle, half for you, half for me...
Mr. Zhou looked at her with a smile and admiration: "The little girl dances very well! Very few young people nowadays are willing to learn this."
Chu Lian Dong smiled brightly. She had a good impression of all the kind-hearted old men with white beards: "The old man was so complimentary. My father taught me this. He is a barefoot doctor and said that Tai Chi can not only strengthen the body, but also
In the process of practice, you can understand the nature of life, and do everything without doing anything."
"Hahahaha! You are quite enlightened at such a young age." Mr. Zhou laughed loudly. He had no sense for this little girl at first, but now these words made him like her as much as he liked.
"You're a little girl that I quite like. How old are you? How many people are there in your family? Are you willing to learn medical skills from me?"
Jiang Lingxu was puzzled by Chu Lian's actions, but suddenly he was a little surprised and a little happy when he heard Mr. Zhou's words.
If the younger sister can become a teacher of Mr. Zhou, she will have no worries about food and clothing from now on. Even if she travels around the world, being able to learn three-thirds of the true teachings will be a guarantee. Not to mention Mr. Zhou’s wide network of contacts, this will become her
of asylum.
Chu Liandong was also a little surprised. She didn't expect that her casual words would make people think of accepting a disciple.
She hesitated several times in her mind. If she just accepted Mr. Zhou as her teacher, it would be best to follow him to learn medical skills in Qinghe. After all, staying away from the protagonist group means staying away from the center of danger, and her life can be guaranteed.
But if she really stayed here, then it would be meaningless for her to pack herself up and come here to seek refuge.
Moreover, Chu Liandong could not confirm whether there would really be no more danger after leaving the protagonist group. If there was no danger, Shi Qing would no longer predict the plot in advance and would not fall asleep again.
Then, will we never see each other again...
These thoughts passed through her mind one by one, and Chu Lian was filled with regret, and finally refused: "I'm sorry, old sir! I have something I must do, and I have to leave with Brother Jiang and the others, and I can't stay here anymore.
"
Mr. Zhou nodded in understanding. Apprenticeship and apprenticeship are all about fate and will not be forced. It seems that the fate between him and this little girl is a little shallow: "No problem, no problem! In this world,
It’s all about fate. Maybe your opportunity is yet to come! You can’t just hide in a corner with an old man like me.”
Chu Liandong bowed to the old man: "If this junior has the opportunity to come to Qinghe Town again in the future, he will definitely come to visit you!"
"Hahahaha! That's very good, I have written it down!" Mr. Zhou still smiled, but there was a little emotion in his tone: "Xiao Jiangdu told me, after you finish breakfast, pack your luggage, then
Leave on your own!"
"I...won't give it away!"
Woohoo, goodbye Mr. Zhou!
The next destination is about to set sail~
