Chapter Fourteen, Accepting Apprentices

Yang Zhao tidied up her things and put her power bank in the sun. It was already afternoon. She lay on the bed, stroking her hungry belly, and started to look at her phone.

Yang Yun sent a few daily greetings and reminded her to make a new video to show her parents her current situation. The two elderly people were very worried about her.

Yang Zhao put the power bank away again, opened the phone camera and put it into his schoolbag, put the schoolbag lock on his back, and wanted to find the canteen.

But as soon as she left the room, she met the two sisters Yang and Mai. One girl was holding Hu hot water in her hand, and the other was holding a plate with several steamed cakes on it. As soon as Yang Zhao came out, she started laughing.

"Sister Yang Zhao, are you hungry? We just happened to bring you two steamed cakes from the kitchen. Please fill your stomach."

"It's already past dinner time, and there's nothing good to eat in the kitchen."

Yang Zhao had no choice but to take the steamed cake and turned sideways to let the two sisters into the house.

But the two of them waved their hands and said, "I won't disturb you, sister. We'll clear the dishes later."

Seeing that the two of them had left, Yang Zhao quickly took a photo of the food on the table and sent it to the loving family.

She tasted the steamed cake in her hand and found that there must be fat in it, and it tasted much better than the ones sold outside. She was also hungry, so she ate it with big mouthfuls.

As soon as we finished eating here, the two sisters came, but Yang Lu had a few small wooden plates in her hand.

"Sister Yang Zhao, I saw that you didn't buy anti-insect medicine, so I brought you some. We will sprinkle it on you later so that there will be no bugs when you sleep at night." It was Yang Mai who spoke again.

Yang Zhao nodded gratefully, she really didn't expect this.

Seeing that she agreed, the two sisters sprinkled the medicinal powder into small wooden dishes and placed them one by one along the wall. They also placed a few under the bed.

After they were done, they both felt a little embarrassed when they saw Yang Zhao looking at them with a smile. Yang Lu rubbed her hands nervously, took out a money bag from her arms, and put it on Yang Zhao's table.

Ever since I started contacting the two sisters, it was Yang Mai who did the talking. However, I didn't expect that the financial power of the two sisters was in the hands of the shy and introverted Yang Lu.

Yang Zhao glanced at the money bag, then smiled and waited for the two of them to speak individually.

This time it was Yang Lu who spoke up.

"Sister Yang Zhao, you can tell by our names that we come from the countryside. Our family is poor, and my father does not have enough money to help us both, but he loves us both very much.

At that time, he specially sent us both to school so that we could read and write, otherwise we would not have been able to work in Shandefang."

Yang Lu licked her lips nervously and said: "You are new here today. You don't know the local language and can't write yet. Shopkeeper Rong wants to find a young man to be your apprentice alone. When your eyes and

mouth."

"Both of us sisters have no problem reading and writing, so we came here shamelessly and want to become your teacher. This is our apprenticeship ceremony. If you accept us, we sisters will definitely honor you well in the future!"

Saying that, Yang Lu pulled Yang Mai and knelt down.

Yang Zhao was startled and hurriedly helped them stand up. The two of them did not embarrass her and stood up obediently.

"Sister Yang Zhao, you don't know that I am seventeen years old this year and my sister is fifteen years old. Although we have attended private schools for several years, it has already taken a lot of effort for us to be able to work in Shandefang. If

If we can't find a way out this year, we will go back to the village to get married."

Yang Mai's tears fell as he spoke.

"My parents have been suffering for so many years and gave us two sisters up. We are really unwilling to end up going back to get married. Now I am becoming my teacher because I want to take the lead in arithmetic."

When Yang Zhao saw her crying, she couldn't help but think about it secretly.

She understands what shopkeeper Rong means. She is currently unable to speak the language. If she wants to get into work quickly, she must find someone to be her translator. Then letting her accept an apprentice is the best way. The interest relationship between master and apprentice is always better than others.

The relationship is closer.

Shopkeeper Rong is optimistic about the Yang Mai sisters.

How else would the two little girls who were cleaning the yard know the news?

Seeing that Yang Zhao didn't nod, the two sisters were a little nervous, and Yang Mai's tears flowed faster. However, both of them had a sense of propriety and did not push her to the limit.

Yang Zhao admired these two little girls very much, smiled broadly, and nodded in agreement.

The two sisters were ecstatic and knelt down together.

"Thank you, Master, for taking us in. From now on, we will treat you as filial to our parents. If we do something wrong, you can beat or scold you as you like."

Yang Zhao saw them kneeling down and kowtowed, and quickly helped them up.

She was just 22 years old and didn't want to have two such big children, but she didn't know how to say this, so she could only smile and pat them on the shoulder.

"Master, please rest first. You are tired from all the busy work for the past half day. When it's dinner time, we will take you to the dining hall. We will move to the room closest to you in the afternoon.

If anything happens later, just tell us both."

Seeing that the two wanted to leave, Yang Zhao hurriedly picked up the money bag on the table and tried to give it to them.

"Master, this is our apprenticeship gift money. How can we take it back?"

The two men pushed away the money bag in Yang Zhao's hand, bowed, turned around and ran away holding hands.

Yang Zhao looked at the purse in his hand, but couldn't say what he wanted to say. Seeing the two of them walking away, he could only put it away first.

Carrying her schoolbag and locking the door again, Yang Zhao went out again. She always wanted to find a place to record a picture for making a video. Today's short video has not been updated yet.

The area where she lives should be the accommodation area. The workshop is currently under construction and there is no one here at all.

Yang Zhao went to the lobby where he applied for the job in the morning. When he got there, he found that shopkeeper Rong was not here now. There was only a teenage boy cleaning the room.

The young man looked her over and said with a smile, "Who are you? What's the matter with coming here?"

Yang Zhao took out his waistband and showed it to him.

"You are the arithmetic master who joined today. I'm sorry. If you need anything, just ask me."

She shook her head and pointed to the various weapons and armor placed on the wall and on the counter.

"You want to see these weapons?"

Yang Zhao nodded.

"Then you can take a look at it as you like. These are weapons that our Shandefang has built in previous years. They are placed here specifically for people to see."

The boy put down the tools in his hands and happily introduced the weapons on the wall to Yang Zhao.

The first thing I refer to is a big bow hanging on the wall.

"Look at this big bow. It's called [Tao]. It's made of deep-sea red copper. Although the bow is slender, it has four magic circles embedded in it. It can shoot twelve rockets at a time, with a long range.

The attack power is particularly high. If used with real arrows, the lethality will be even higher. Due to its complicated production process, only our Shandefang in Cangcheng can produce it."

It can be seen that he is very proud of these, and his eyes shine when he introduces the weapons.
