Probably because he wanted to let Yun Jing have an adaptation process, after accepting him as his disciple, Li Qiu didn't tell him too much about his expectations or rules.
Li Qiu was very good at grasping the rhythm of his speech, and under his guidance intentionally or unintentionally, he started a family conversation with Yun Lin and the others.
During the conversation, Yun Lin and the others gradually calmed down from their excitement. However, even if Yun Jing and Li Qiu had a master-disciple relationship, it would not be so easy for them to adapt to Li Qiu's concept of class gap quickly.
There is restraint.
As he spoke, Li Qiu emphasized many times that his whole family would be here on the day when Yunjing officially became his disciple. He said that since Yunjing became his disciple, it was not just a master-disciple relationship between him and Yunjing, but Yunjing as a link between the two.
The families are all tied together in a sense.
Of course, he tried to speak as straightforwardly and euphemistically as possible so that Yunlin and the others could understand and not feel any pressure.
After understanding what Li Qiu meant, Yunlin and the others were at a loss. Before this, they had never dreamed of having a relationship with someone like Li Qiu.
Zhang Changgui, who was accompanying him, was extremely envious. He said to himself that with this relationship between the Yunlin family and Mr. Li's family, it could be said that they were soaring...
As a junior, Yunjing did not interrupt, but he looked at Li Qiu as a master with more respect.
It seemed that the other party was just asking Yunjing's family to attend the ceremony and explain the relationship between the two parties. In fact, if you think about it more deeply, Li Qiu must have more thoughts about protecting Yunjing's family.
Think about it, when Yunjing becomes a disciple in front of so many people, Li Qiu introduces Yunjing and his family to everyone. After people know about this relationship, the news spreads, even if something like this happens that deliberately targets Yunjing's family.
The incident at the farmer's home is trivial, but if it really happened, people who had that kind of thinking would probably have to reconsider Li Qiu and have to pass his test first!
Perhaps this will slightly affect the current living conditions of the Yunjing family, but with Yunjing's apprenticeship and this bond, this kind of thing is inevitable. Rather than hiding it, it is better to put it in the open. On the contrary, if Li Qiu doesn't
Such an arrangement would actually make people feel that he didn't pay enough attention to Yunjing, his apprentice.
In short, with Li Qiu's arrangement, he must be able to take care of Yunjing's family.
Scholars take one step at a time and see three steps at a time. Yunjing does not believe that his master cannot see this, and there is definitely more than he thinks...
The time came to the afternoon unknowingly. Li Qiu persuaded Yunjing and the others to stay for lunch, and then personally sent Yunjing and the others to the door.
Of course, as a disciple, Yunjing is not qualified to have his master send him off in person, but out of etiquette as a scholar, Yunjing is his disciple and Yunlin is Yunjing's grandfather. In this way, Yunlin can also be regarded as Li Qiu's half.
Since he is an elder, it is reasonable for him to send him off in person.
In the previous chat, Li Qiu learned that Yunjing's family had a short distance to go back and there were certain safety risks, so he specially arranged for two nursing homes to see each other off. The arrangement was very thoughtful, and he truly regarded Yunjing as his inheritance.
Disciple, rather than perfunctory.
After bidding farewell to Li Qiu, Yunlin and the others did not set off home immediately.
When he was some distance away from the gate of Li Qiu's house, Yunlin deliberately pulled Zhang Changgui aside, took out a bunch of copper coins from his arms and handed them to him, saying: "Brother Changgui, my little Jing can become a disciple of Mr. Li, and it's all because of you."
The matchmaker, I remember this kindness. I don’t know how to express my gratitude to you. Please accept the money first. I can’t promise anything for my grandson. If there is anything I can do to help in the future, just come.
Come to me and I will do my best.”
"Uncle Lin, what are you talking about? How can I accept your money? Besides, I didn't put in much effort. It's all your grandson's ability to become a disciple. You should put it away quickly. I'm leaving. You have a long way to go back.
Be careful..." Zhang Changgui was unwilling to accept the offer, so he sternly refused, then turned around and ran away.
It's not that Zhang Changgui had any ulterior motives, he simply felt that he had not helped much. Instead, he felt that taking this opportunity to go to Li's house and see his skills would be a blessing.
Seeing Zhang Changgui disappearing in a hurry, Yunlin was helpless. He just sincerely and simply wanted to express his gratitude, but he couldn't accept it, so he had no choice but to give up.
All in all, after this incident, the relationship between the two parties who were already familiar with each other became closer...
Riding Dahei on the way home, Yunjing looked back at the direction of his master Li Qiu's home, and then at the two Li family nurses carrying his grandfather and father on horseback.
a feeling of.
This time, a group of people from the town succeeded in becoming a teacher. I don’t know how many troubles they have solved for the purpose of studying. If I just relied on myself, I don’t know how much energy and countless troubles it would take to pay for someone to teach me how to read.
, that was just literacy, but now, everything is easily solved.
The above is secondary. The main thing is that Yunjing is temporarily unable to adapt to the change of identity.
Yes, he worshiped Li Qiu as his disciple, and his status could be said to have jumped from a mud-legged person to the circle of scholars. It was simply a magnificent transformation.
The most intuitive manifestation is that the two Li family horseback guards, Kong Wu and Lili, treat them with respect. In the past, how could you be so virtuous? No one would even look at you!
Especially when they were ordered to come to escort him, when they walked up to Yunjing and bowed slightly and called out "Young Master", Yunjing was shocked on the outside and tender on the inside, and at the same time extremely embarrassed.
What the hell, you have become the young master that others call you?
I became a master, not a godfather.
However, despite all the talk, they did not change their words, and even said plausibly that Yunjing was their master's apprentice, and he was the only one at the moment. He was given high hopes by his master. At some point, Yunjing could even represent Li Qiu's master, and his status was equal to that of his master.
Real young masters, if they don't address them like this, they are breaking the rules and will be punished.
Yunjing couldn't laugh or cry about this, but at the same time he had no choice but to let them go.
Wow, this life encounter is so wonderful.
On the way back, Yunlin Yunshan and the others did not have to walk. They were led by the two nursing homes on horseback. They could not adapt to the sudden change. They did not know how to communicate with the two nursing homes and could only remain silent.
Yunjing's keen senses felt that the two guards sent by Master Li Qiu were definitely capable. Although he did not see them taking action with his own eyes, Yunjing vaguely felt that their skills were probably not as good as those in the town.
Wang Captou, but definitely not as good as the senior brothers who Wang Captou had when he went to Xiaoxi Village!
This feeling is very mysterious...
The road was so boring that Yun Jing looked at the nurse on the left. He was in his thirties, his surname was Liu, and he had a long knife hanging on his waist. He was so tall that his muscles in his gray clothes were so bulging.
Looking at him, Yunjing asked curiously: "Uncle Liu, are you also a martial arts practitioner?"
"Young Master Yun, just tell me to be strong." The other party turned around and smiled, and then said: "We can be regarded as martial arts practitioners. We are not lucky enough to join a sect and learn advanced martial arts. However, the martial arts passed down from our family are quite popular.
On the way to martial arts, I was barely getting started, but I was almost at the end, so I went to the master’s home to work as a nurse to earn some money.”
Seeing that his arms are almost thicker than my waist, is this just the beginning?
Slightly surprised, Yunjing asked again: "How does your martial arts compare with the king of the town, Captou?"
"Of course there is no comparison. He is a disciple of the Feng Dao Sect and has learned advanced martial arts and has been a martial artist for many years. How can we compare with him? We are no match for him," Liu Dazhuang shook his head and said.
Yunjing thought about it and was not too entangled. After thinking about it, he asked curiously: "Then Wang Baotou must be the most powerful in Niujiao Town, right?"
The reason why he asked this question was because Yun Jing felt that if he was not good at it, how could he protect the peace?
"He? Haha, in this three-acre area of Niujiao Town, his skills may be considered top-notch, but he is definitely not the most powerful." Hearing this question, Liu Dazhuang chuckled, seeming to be vaguely looking down on him, not knowing that he
Where did that sense of superiority come from?
After a pause, he spoke in a tone of great awe, and looked at Yun Jing with admiration: "To say that the most powerful martial artist in Niujiao Town is your master, who is also my father. Let alone Niujiao Town, just
Even looking..."
Just as he was chatting, the guard on the other side coughed twice and said, "Brother Liu, be careful, don't talk about the master's affairs!"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Dazhuang quickly shut up, and then smiled at Yun Jing and said: "Forget it, I can't say more, and I don't know much. Anyway, Master Yun will understand in the future. You are my disciple, in terms of civil and military matters.
In the future, it all depends on your own ability whether you can get his true inheritance."
Although he only heard Liu Dazhuang say a few words about his master Li Qiu, Yunjing had a vague feeling that his master seemed not simple.
Do you want to be so ridiculous?
But then again, Yunjing inexplicably felt that this was somewhat reasonable. After all, just judging from his master's speech, behavior and treatment of others, it was not the average person who could have that kind of cultivation.
Moreover, if he is just a weak scholar with a great reputation, and so many people have gone to become apprentices, there is no reason why he has not accepted apprentices for so many years, right? There must be something extraordinary that allows those who want to become apprentices.
Can't catch his eye.
And if there is nothing extraordinary and he has no official position, how can he maintain such a large family fortune? It is unreasonable to just rely on his status as a scholar. Don't think that everyone is a gentleman.
Especially when he asked himself the question of whether to choose a rich girl or a fiancée, maybe it was actually related to his personal experience!
But that's not right. No matter how you look at it, your master doesn't look like he has practiced martial arts. Instead, he looks more like a weak scholar. Is it possible that his skills are already so good that he doesn't show it to others?
Then Yunjing thought of another question, that is, the status of scholars in this world is too high. Do scholars really govern the government and manage the country just with the pen in their hands?
Carefully recalling the details of his previous interactions with Li Qiu, Yunjing suddenly noticed a place that he had ignored before, and that was Master Li Qiu's right hand. In addition to the calluses on the fingertips, the tiger's mouth was no exception!
If we say that as a scholar who writes all the year round, it’s okay to have calluses on his fingertips, but there are also calluses on the tiger’s mouth, so it can’t be caused by holding a pen, right?
After thinking about it, Yun Jing realized from these analyses, that the mystery of why scholars in this world have such a high status was faintly revealed in front of him.
However, no matter what, what kind of person the master is, or what the world of scholars is like, that is a matter for the future. What Yunjing wants most now is to return home and share this joy with his mother.
She will be very happy when she learns that she has succeeded in becoming a disciple, right?
