The person who was saluting waited until he walked over before he straightened up and took two steps before being called back.
"Uncle Master, what are your orders?"
Qiao Yu looked him up and down: "Xin Feng, where are you going?"
The boy named Xin Xuan looks like he is thirteen years old, and his youthful spirit still contains a hint of childishness that has not faded.
He replied respectfully: "I'm going back to my uncle because I want to go home."
Qiao Yu nodded. Xin Xuan's parents were from the sect. They were apprentices to Master Qitong of Chu Gongfeng. They were all acquaintances. They were the nephews and nephews they had grown up with.
He said: "From your master?"
Xin Heng didn't understand why Uncle Qiao Yu, who rarely dared to speak after seeing him, was so peaceful today. He nodded: "Yes, I served the master today and now I'm going home."
Qiao Yu nodded again: "Do you go home every day?"
Xin Heng was confused: "Back to my uncle, of course I go home every day. My peak is not far from my master's place. Oh, don't worry, I have training caves on both sides, so I won't delay my training."
The corners of Qiao Yu's lips curled up: "Very good, let's go back."
Xin Feng let out a cry, and then dared to turn around and touch his head after seeing him leave. Uncle Qiao Yu was so strange.
Qiao Yu returned to Caixiu Peak, feeling relaxed. Oh, other people's disciples go back to his own home every day, but his disciple only goes back once every five days. Why should he be angry? As long as the disciple practices well, that's all.
Other disciples: Master, do you want to know the thoughts of us children who have never been home since entering the sect?
Qiao Yu: I can’t hear you.
Hu Nuan landed and Huan ran over: "Master, I'll give you some meat."
This is a jar full of big pieces of meat.
Qiao Yu took the jar and touched her head happily: "Well, go clean it up and come back to practice."
Hu Nuan ran back to his room, as if the confrontation between master and apprentice had never happened before.
Qiao Yu also happily opened the jar, looked at it, and tasted two pieces.
Seeing this, Yanshan had only one thought: worry about it blindly and never care about his master and disciple's affairs in the future.
On the second day of school, a group of young disciples gathered together after class. Hu Nuan brought out a jar with braised pork and a food box with flower cakes.
As soon as the lid of the jar was opened, the meat was still warm, and a strong aroma of meat came over. The disciples surrounding him said: "Wow——"
A few days ago, Hu Nuan was eating secretly, and they discovered that he had eaten a few pieces of meat among them. The cold meat was so fragrant, and now the hot meat seemed to be even more fragrant, and his soul was gone.
.
A male disciple swallowed his saliva and said: "Hu Nuan, I have a ring. It can keep things fresh inside. If you put it in, it will still be hot when you take it out. If you put it in, it will still be cold when you take it out. I give it to you. You can use it.
Specially here to hold the delicious food your mother made."
Sure enough, he took out a silver ring from his belt and gave it to her: "As long as you remember that your mother will give you a share of the delicious food."
Hu Nuan glanced at him and grabbed the ring: "Okay."
What's his name? Little Seagull?
She looked at him coldly: "Xiao Yu, was this ring given to you by your master? Does your master agree with you giving it away like this?"
Xiao Yu: "This is my thing and I make the decision." He looked a little unhappy.
Leng Ruo stopped talking. She was just afraid that Master Xiao Yu would have a problem with Hu Nuan.
She said to Hu Nuan: "You can't use the ring now, put it away, and you can use it when your cultivation level improves."
Xiao Yu: "By the way, I forgot about it, Hu Nuan, otherwise you can practice with me."
As soon as he finished speaking, other children also shouted: "Hu Nuan, you can practice with me."
Qiao Yu, who often came to take a peek, said: "The apprentice's popularity suddenly improved, but it was not due to him, so he was a little sad."
Watching the young disciples sharing food and eating, it was time for the next lesson. The gentleman who came to teach actually didn't do anything and shared a piece of cake and two pieces of meat. Qiao Yu thought, why don't I have a cake?
Qiao Yu specially waited until noon and went to the cafeteria to take a look. He saw that his apprentice had eaten a portion of meat and vegetables that was no less than others without any delay. He observed that her belly was a little bloated.
Qiao Yu thought for a while and waited until school was over in the afternoon. The disciples went to the cafeteria. He saw clearly that Hu Nuan's belly was deflated again, but it was round again after eating.
He looked back at Xiufeng thoughtfully, waited for two full cups of tea before bringing the person back, pretending to give him a casual glance, "Very good, his stomach is flat," and pushed the snacks on the table forward, as well as the bamboo knot.
A carved water cup filled with honey tea.
Hu Nuan first called the master, washed his hands and wiped his face, ran over, sat on a small chair, picked up some snacks and ate them.
Qiao Yu began to seriously think about his apprentice's appetite. Can other young disciples of the same age eat like this?
I couldn't help but ask her: "How much do you eat in a day to be full?"
Hu Nuan didn't have any idea and answered directly: "You can grow taller by eating more."
Qiao Yu thought about the amount of food he saw at noon: "Like lunch, how much can you eat to be full?"
Hu Nuan was confused for a moment. She was full. She had three meals a day, snacks in the morning, afternoon and evening. She could also eat something else secretly in between. How much could she eat?
"a lot of."
Qiao Yu was depressed for a moment, wishing that he could be five years old so that he could talk to her normally.
Hu Nuan was biting her snack and suddenly realized something. She seemed to have eaten more than before.
In the past, when she and Hu Qing were together, Hu Qing would certainly not starve her. In Xiaoguan's back house, even though he was not taken seriously, he was still his biological blood. The food would not be good but it would never be less. She had never been hungry.
Then when will she not have enough to eat?
By the way, after being separated from her mother, she could see her mother when she closed her eyes but couldn't reach her side. She saw her mother being chased by monsters, fighting with others, and being hungry.
Hu Nuan would feel hungry even after eating at that time, but she was young and scared to be alone, so she subconsciously ignored this feeling.
Then the petty official's house was raided, and the whole family was imprisoned, and then sold into ravines, where they never had a full meal and suffered from hunger all the time.
Then Hu Qing came and took her out of the mountain village, and then came to Chaohua Sect. Hu Nuan could eat as much as she wanted. Her appetite increased, and she thought it was because she was growing.
She recalled these things, vaguely aware of something but unable to express it. Moreover, this was a secret between her and her mother, and the master could not tell it either.
Hu Nuan: "Eat a lot of meat, a lot of rice, a lot of vegetables and fruits, I want to grow the tallest." She gestured: "As tall as the sky."
Qiao Yu: As a teacher, I don’t have such big expectations for you.
He laughed: "Why are you so tall?"
Hu Nuan thought of what Hu Qing had said to her, and translated it in her own language: "I'm very tall, and I can't hear people scolding me."
Qiao Yu: "..."
He stopped laughing and looked at Yu Shan: "What's going on?"
Yanshan was in a panic, how could I know? I can't stay and make people uncomfortable when mother and daughter are getting along. Her mind was working quickly and she quickly answered: "The place where Madam Hu lives is full of mortals. Mortals are talkative and will get into trouble no matter what."
"Fei, Madam Hu lives alone, and Xiao Nuan is still young, so it is common for some rumors to spread among the people."
