Mu Yunxiu glanced at Xiao Tiandou. He felt that no one in Tang Miaoxin's family, from the oldest to the youngest, was a fuel-efficient lamp.
Little Sweet Bean's voice was soft and cute, but what she said was not cute: "If you didn't expect it, it's because you didn't think carefully."
"I understand that you are angry, but I think you should be angry with yourself, not me."
"After all, I sincerely want to learn, and although you are willing to accept me as a disciple, you don't think carefully about it."
"Grandpa Huang said that the way of a gentleman lies in his mind and courage, not in his ability."
Mu Yunxiu looked at Little Sweet Dou in shock. In the past few days, he had seen Little Sweet Dou look like a monkey, and he had also seen his eagerness to learn.
He was not too surprised by this because these were still in the category of children.
But at this time, Sweet Pea's words and other aspects were telling him that this child was smarter and more transparent than he expected.
From now on, we can no longer treat him as a child who is ignorant of the world.
He bowed to Little Sweet Dou seriously and said, "I have learned a lesson."
Little Sweet Pea was also a little surprised by his attitude, feeling that he was a little different from ordinary adults.
He put his hands behind his back and looked at Mu Yunxiu with his big eyes: "Why do you want to salute me?"
Mu Yunxiu replied: "Because what you said is right, but I am obsessed with it."
"You pointed out my mistake. I think you are right, so I have to thank you."
Little Sweet Bean blinked and said, "But you are an adult and I am a child. The adults I have met rarely admit that they are wrong in front of children."
Mu Yunxiu smiled and said: "The way of a gentleman is to admit your shortcomings and mistakes first."
"You can't refuse to admit your mistakes just because the other person is a child or for the sake of the so-called adult's face."
Xiao Tiandou laughed when she heard this: "Now I understand a little bit why my mother praised you and said that you are a smart and transparent person."
Mu Yunxiu smiled gracefully: "You are complimenting me, right?"
Xiao Tiandou shook his head: "No, she praised me. Don't look at her being out of shape all day long. She is a person who never hesitates to praise others."
Mu Yunxiu's eyes were thoughtful, and he stretched out his hand to rub Xiao Tiandou's head again.
He saw good upbringing in Xiao Tiandou, and also saw the shadow of Tang Miaoxin and Ning Guzhou.
Such a child is really lovable.
Mu Yunxiu has no plans to marry in this life, but he feels that with Xiao Tiandou as his disciple, he will probably have no regrets in this life.
At this time, he had vaguely felt that no matter what happened during the three years he stayed with Tang Miaoxin, he would probably be unable to leave this family.
It's not that they need him, it's that he needs them.
He asked Little Sweet Pea: "I know Little Sweet Pea is your nickname, what is your first name?"
Xiao Tiandou replied: "The name my mother gave me is Zhong Wudi."
The corners of Mu Yunxiu's mouth twitched. This name indeed seemed like something Tang Miaoxin could come up with.
Xiao Tiandou continued: "My grandpa Huang thinks she is too uneducated. The name I recorded on the jade plate of the Gui Qian royal family is Zhong Buqi."
Mu Yunxiu murmured: "A gentleman has no power, and the king has high hopes for you."
Xiao Tiandou chuckled and said: "That's natural, my grandpa Huang loves me the most."
The master and the disciple smiled at each other, saying nothing.
The last time Xiao Tiandou accepted Mu Yunxiu as his master, he was somewhat in a hurry.
After returning to Guiqian Palace, they have been busy again, and Xiao Tiandou has not yet performed the formal apprenticeship ceremony like Mu Yun.
Mu Yunxiu felt that after accepting Xiao Tiandou as his disciple, there would be a lot of trouble in the future. He felt a little regretful in his heart, so he kept putting off the matter.
At this time, the master and the disciple completely talked about the matter, and their moods were completely different from before.
Mu Yunxiu thinks Xiao Tiandou is very good, and Xiao Tiandou thinks Mu Yunxiu's teacher's character is also very good.
At this point, the two of them truly recognized each other's identity.
Mu Yunxiu looked at Xiao Tiandou and said, "You can go find a piece of bacon and longan later and officially come to become a disciple!"
In Guiqian, bacon and longan are used as apprenticeship ceremonies, which are the most commonly used by scholars.
Little Sweet Bean asked him: "These two things are quite cheap, and my family is quite rich. How about I use gold to buy you a piece of bacon and a bag of longan?"
Mu Yunxiu: "..."
Xiao Tiandou is indeed Tang Miaoxin's son, and the way he expresses his feelings is the same simple and crude way.
He smiled and said, "No, I'm not short of money."
He has never had much interest in these external things.
At this time, I took the initiative to bring this up, but it was because I really liked Xiao Tiandou.
Xiao Tiandou smiled and said: "Okay, then I will definitely prepare the best bacon and longan."
However, it was already June, and the bacon cured last winter was now spoiled.
Not only can I find the best bacon, but it's also hard to find a piece of bacon that's broken.
In the end, Tang Miaoxin came forward and helped him find a piece of smoked bacon.
Longan is not in season right now, so dry longan can only be used instead.
When Xiao Tiandou saw this shabby apprenticeship ceremony, she felt a little conflicted, and in the end she had no choice but to give in.
Mu Yunxiu didn't care much about these customary rituals, nor did he care about what kind of apprenticeship ceremony Xiao Tiandou gave him.
He asked Xiao Tiandou to prepare these things just to confirm the master-disciple relationship between the two, and he needed to go through the motions.
The apprenticeship ceremony was held at the inn the next morning.
Xiao Tiandou obediently and conscientiously bowed, and then served Mu Yunxiu tea and the apprenticeship ceremony. The relationship between master and disciple was officially decided.
When Xiao Tiandou saluted, Tang Miaoxin said softly to Ning Guzhou: "Have you noticed that Xiao Tiandou's attitude towards Mr. Mu has changed?"
Ning Guzhou nodded: "Mu Yunxiu is kind-hearted, but he is not decisive in killing. Xiao Tiandou will not suffer any loss if he becomes his teacher."
Regarding Mu Yunxiu's character, both Tang Miaoxin and Ning Guzhou recognized him. He was definitely a powerful person.
The whole mess in Rongzhou was basically handled by him alone.
Even though Princess Dingbei killed his whole family, he had no intention of killing all of Princess Dingbei's children. His hatred would stop at whoever he was, without involving others.
Although all Princess Dingbei's children were killed by Lu Xianchen in the end, this matter had nothing to do with Mu Yunxiu after all.
At this point, Tang Miaoxin felt that she was not as good as Mu Yunxiu.
Tang Miaoxin sighed: "Why do I feel that Mu Yunxiu seems to have figured out a lot of things? He may already know that he will not be able to leave in three years."
Ning Guzhou said warmly: "I'm afraid he doesn't want to leave at this time."
Tang Miaoxin felt that Ning Guzhou's words summed it up perfectly.
Mu Yunxiu's mentality during this period has been much calmer than before, and his attitude towards Xiao Tiandou has also changed a lot.
She said softly: "It's not enough for Xiao Tiandou to have Mu Yunxiu as a master. Now that Cheng Lixue and Jing Shiyu are here, we can't leave them idle."
