Chapter 6 Because You Are Poor

Li Dioudiu said excitedly as he walked: "Master, you don't know. That big man came over with a combination of faces. It's really not easy to avoid it. Hehe...he cried."

The long-browed Taoist stopped, turned around and looked at Li Dio and said seriously: "You should understand why Master did this, but you broke the path that Master wanted to pave for you because of your willfulness."

Li Dioudi subconsciously took a step back, a little panicked. He did deliberately anger Gao Shaowei. He didn't want to enter the Four-Peace Academy, so he wanted to rely on his master for his life.

“Master…”

Although the Taoist Changmei was not fierce, he became scared because he saw disappointment in his master's eyes. He would rather his master scold him and beat him. However, this disappointed look made him feel more uncomfortable and more scared.

"Forget it."

The long-browed Taoist sighed, touched it in his arms, and took out a handful of copper coins: "Let's go for a good meal, it's enough for each person to cook a bowl of braised rice. After eating, you have to find a way to make money...Silly child, if you don't leave Yangguan Avenue, you insist on following me along the path of loneliness."

“What is braised?”

Li Diudiu asked.

The long-browed Taoist smiled and rubbed Li Diudou's head: "The world is delicious."

The next morning, the master and apprentice who could not afford to stay in the inn came out of the pile of firewood outside the wall of a family. The two stood there and shook the hay on their bodies at the same time.

"Di'er, come with me to Mr. Zhou's house later. Although you can't enter the academy, you have to thank others. This is etiquette. We are poor but we cannot say that we are not etiquette."

"I know Master."

The two of them turned around at the same time and urinated at the place where they could sleep last night, and then shook at the same time.

"Are you hungry?"

Master asked.

Li Dioudi shook his head and smashed it, "The braised thief chicken is delicious, it's delicious in the world, and it's still hungry."

"No, it's all meat, how can you not bear to be hungry?"

After urinating, the master and apprentice turned around to face each other to tidy up their appearance, took off the hay on their bodies, and then used their fingers as combs to smooth their hair. Although the clothes were dirty, both of them carefully tidied them up.

"It's a pity that I have no money. If I have money, I should bring some gifts to others, even a pack of snacks."

The long-browed Taoist raised his hand and knocked Li Dioudi's head: "Prodigal child."

Li Dioudi chuckled and suddenly hugged the master's thighs, hugging him so tightly. The long-browed Taoist wanted to say a few more words to him, but the child hugged him like this, and his heart was warm, so he could not say anything else.

Soon, the two of them arrived outside Zhou Huaili's door and looked at it early. The two of them sat down across the street, one big and one small, and their sitting postures were exactly the same.

At this moment, the old housekeeper opened the small door and looked out. When he saw the master and apprentice, he immediately smiled: "What a coincidence."

The long-browed Taoist pulled Li Dioudi up: "Unfortunately, we came to thank Master Zhou and also to say goodbye."

"Goodbye?"

The old housekeeper asked, "Where are you going?"

The long-mei Taoist said, "There is no goal, let's be your home in all directions."

"You can't leave. My master just told me to find you. I was worried about where to find you. I saw you as soon as I went out. This is my luck and your luck."

He stepped forward and pulled the long-browed Taoist: "Hurry, the master is still waiting for you."

The two followed the old housekeeper into the Zhou Mansion. Zhou Huaili heard that the person was found and came out of the house with excitement.

"I'm so lucky. I just returned home yesterday. Someone from Siye Academy sent me to let Li Chi enter the academy today. I was really afraid that I wouldn't find you. I didn't leave an address when you left."

"Ah?" Li Dioudiu and his master looked at each other, and both of them thought they had heard it wrong.

Zhou Huaili said: "Mr. Gao decided to accept Li Chi. Why do you have such a look? Shouldn't you be happy about this great joy?"

"Happy!"

The long-browed Taoist immediately started to laugh, and the folds on his face were more than twice as many, but Xiao Li couldn't laugh, and his face became dimmer and dimmer.

When the Taoist saw his disciple's expression, he knew that he was afraid of losing himself, so he squatted down and held Li Dioudiu's shoulder and said, "Have you safe, Master won't leave. I've inquired about it. The academy will be on vacation every ten days. Then you go to the Taoist temple to find me, and I will wait for you there."

"You really won't leave Jizhou?"

"Really, Master lied to you to thunder."

"All right......"

Li Dioudi took a deep breath: "Master, have you really been in that Taoist temple all the time?"

"Of course, the host and I are old acquaintances. I can keep me as a guest of honor with just one word."

The long-browed Taoist suddenly picked up Li Diudiu. It was obvious that it was very difficult when he straightened up. He hugged Li Diudiu and thorned him in the face with his beard: "You have grown up, and you can't hold you like this again in the future. Be good at it and don't embarrass your master."

Li Dioudiu suddenly hugged the long-browed Taoist's neck tightly and hugged it tightly.

Four-page Academy.

Gao Shaowei looked at his granddaughter helplessly. He really had no choice but to do anything. He was spoiled by himself. Who would he blame?

He looked at his granddaughter Gao Xining and said seriously: "I agreed that although I promised you to let that kid go to the academy to study, you can't go to him too blatantly to learn martial arts. You are my granddaughter, so it's not okay for people to see it."

Gao Xixi was thirteen years old and was not yet in her hair. She wore this tender green long skirt, just like the tender buds that had just emerged from the willow branches in early spring. The little girl perfectly inherited her mother's beauty. What's different from her mother is that her eyebrows are too heroic, and only this is more like her father.

"I know, I know."

The little girl chuckled: "That boy's martial arts are really amazing. He obviously hits people, but every move looks like the other party hitting his face. How old is he? How can he practice such good martial arts?"

"He is eleven years old, two years younger than you."

Gao Shaowei said, "Remember that men and women should not be too close to him. If you want to learn his martial arts, I will arrange for you to watch it. Remember that he is not your master, and you must not be his apprentice."

"Know, know."

The little girl smiled and said, "Actually it's nothing. Look, you are my grandfather, he is your disciple, I am his disciple, you are still my grandfather."

Gao Shao is: "..."

He sighed long and said, "You...when will this active temperament be changed? Your mother was different from you at that time. She was born in a scholarly family and was gentle and filial. You are so good. She followed your father's bad habits and did not follow your mother at all."

The little girl shook her hair and turned around and left: "I'll go and see if that stupid guy is here, by the way..."

She suddenly remembered something and looked back at Gao Shaowei: "Does that silly boy have no money to buy hospital clothes?"

Gao Shaowei: "Is this something you should worry about?"

The little girl frowned: "It's dirty, I don't like it."

Gao Shaowei shook his head: "Just give him all."

The little girl nodded: "Don't give it so obviously."

Gao Shaowei: "What else do you want?"

The little girl said, "First, you can't let him think that it's what he deserves. Three sets of courtyard clothes, spring, winter and summer, three sets cost two taels of silver. For ordinary people, two taels of silver should be a lot... Second, you can't let him take care of why others can take care of things, you can't let him develop the habit of asking for them. Third, don't let him think that it's a gift."

Gao Shaowei felt that his head was too big, and his granddaughter was weird, and he thought so much in his mind in a flash.

"He was born in a bad and poor family. Let him clean the classroom part-time."

"Then he is going to be looked down upon?"

"See what he thinks."

The little girl left with her hair shaking, waving.

Li Dioudi followed Zhou Huaili to the academy for the second time. In addition to him, the other three children had already arrived. After all, the academy could not inform them, but Li Dioudi could not be notified. If Li Dioudi and his master did not go to Zhou's mansion to thank him, he would have lost the opportunity to enter the academy. He thought it would be great that he had not gone to Zhou Huaili's house.

Zhou Huaili said while walking: "Although I don't know how you impressed Mr. Gao, I hope you can cherish the opportunity. Entering the academy does not mean you can graduate from the academy. You are not outstanding enough and you can even expel you. Think about it, how easy is it for your master to enter the academy for you?"

"knew."

Li Dioudi nodded, feeling very sad, feeling so sad that he was thrown away. In this world, he only has his master, and he has depended on each other for many years. Now he can't meet each other every day and feels uncomfortable, especially uncomfortable.

Zhou Huaili couldn't help feeling a little painful when he saw this child's indifference. There were so many sufferings in the world, but Li Dioudiu was the only one in the academy. The students in the academy were all from a wealthy family. Li Dioudiu was an alien. Zhou Huaili could imagine how many difficulties he would encounter, how cold he looked at him, how much looked down upon him.

"This was given to me last time, and the remaining money was left besides the tuition fee."

Zhou Huaili took out a purse and handed it to Li Dioudiu: "There are a total of three taels of silver inside, two taels of silver should be used to buy hospital clothes, one tael of silver should be used to buy books, and the academy should control food and accommodation."

"oh......"

Li Dioudiu took the money bag and stopped.

Zhou Huaili walked a few steps and saw Li Dioudiui following him, and looked back: "What's wrong?"

Li Dioudi took a deep breath, then leaned over and bowed seriously: "Thank you, Mr. Zhou, this silver was considered to be borrowed from you. I will return it to you if I make money in the future. Where can my master have the remaining silver..."

Zhou Huaili walked back to Li Diudiu and subconsciously raised his hand to touch Li Diudiu's head, but he held it back.

"You are so kind to do it yourself. You can see that you are actually a sensible child. Since you are sensible, you should understand your master's painstaking efforts."

"I see."

Li Dioudiu bowed again and said, "Let's go."

The two walked outside Gao Shaowei's study room. Gao Shaowei was not here, but a young teacher who looked about thirty years old. He was very tall and thin, holding a file in his hand, but he was not very literary and popular, with a cold face, and he looked more like a swordsman in the world.

"My name is Yan Qingzhi, it is your tutoring lesson. You entered the academy late. I am responsible for teaching you to catch up with the courses of the big class. If you can pass my assessment within a month, you will return to the big class to study with other students. If you can't pass my assessment, you will leave the academy."

He paused for a moment and looked down at the four children, and added: "I am a first-class teacher in the academy. If I fail to take you to follow your studies within a month, it is naturally not my problem, but you are useless. The academy does not need to be useless."

He asked, "Who is Li Chi?"

Li Dioudi leaned over and said, "Sir, I am."

Yan Qingzhidao: "You are responsible for cleaning the classroom."

Li Dioudiu frowned: "I am alone? Every day? All the time?"

Yan Qingzhi nodded: "You are alone, every day, always."

Li Dioudiu asked: "Why?"

Yan Qingzhi looked at him with cold eyes: "Because you are poor."
