The reputation of a girl is very important. Even if Song Wanyue and Gu Yi get married, if she stays in the Gu family, she will definitely attract gossip. Song Si doesn't want Song Wanyue to be discussed.
"Don't worry, brother, I'm a good person."
Song Si was satisfied and got up and went back to the house to supervise Song Shen to practice calligraphy.
The Song family had dinner early and rested early, but when they thought that Song Wanyue would become a disciple tomorrow, everyone tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
Grandma Song lay in the quilt and poked Mr. Song with her elbow, "Old man, do you think, did our Yue'er suffer that hardship?"
Mr. Song couldn't sleep at all, so when he heard her ask, he sat up, put on his clothes and got off the kang. The moonlight from the window penetrated into the tobacco pipe, lit it, and then picked up the cotton curtain and exposed a crack. He took a few slaps and then replied in a muffled voice, "You have to bear it if you can't bear it, and you have to bear it if you can't bear it. Since you have become a teacher, you have to study hard."
Seeing him like this, Grandma Song knew that he was worried, so she comforted her, "Our Yue'er looks soft and follows the eldest daughter-in-law, but she is tough at heart and can definitely stand it."
Mr. Song finished smoking a bag of cigarettes before he said "hmm".
Song Lin couldn't sleep even more, so he lay down excitedly and lie down. Xu was so amused and laughed, "If you are troubled like this, if you catch a cold, you can't watch Yue'er become a disciple tomorrow."
Song Lin immediately lay down and covered the quilt tightly again, "My mother, did she see the master Yi'er invited today?"
Xu shook his head slightly, "I only heard the sound. He is a female master and should be very strict."
As soon as she heard the sternness, Song Lin couldn't help but sit up again, "Then, that......"
"We don't have to worry about the strict teacher."
"Yes, yes, yes..."
Song Lin was very reluctant to leave Song Wanyue to learn martial arts. If Song Wanyue and Erya were not nearly abducted, even the master Gu Yi invited would not agree.
"Let's sleep, tomorrow we will all look at Yue'er and become a disciple."
...
The next morning, the Song family got up early. Song Lin drove the ox cart to the butcher's house next door to take back a clean half-pan pig, put it in a basin, and cover it with red cloth.
Grandma Song prepared snacks and hot pot bases of various flavors. Then she picked a good cloth from the cloth hired by the Gu family. Finally, she took out the earrings and bracelets that Song Wanyue bought for her when she went to Fucheng, and put together six gifts.
After a simple breakfast, the family went back to their house to change their clothes and got on the ox cart to the Gu family.
They went there early. When they were almost at Gujia Village, they met Xiaosi who was riding a carriage to pick them up. They didn't let Xiaosi get off the carriage, and they directly made the coachman turn around. They followed the carriage and then arrived at Gujia.
Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu came out to welcome the people in person and ordered the maid to serve hot tea, "In-laws, you warm up first, I'll let them prepare."
It was already November. Even though they were dressed very thickly, everyone felt cold and picked up the hot tea and held it in their hands.
Gu Yi sat next to Song Wanyue. Seeing that she was the same, he felt distressed and asked the maid to rinse another charcoal basin at her feet.
Mrs. Gu saw it and looked at Mr. Gu, and smiled at Grandma Song, "Grandma, I still have an idle carriage at home. Why not rush back when you go back."
"Thank you."
Grandma Song put down the teacup in her hand and did not refuse. "I originally thought that I would buy one at home after Yue'er became a disciple. Since you have idle ones, we are not polite."
In the past, it was useless to refuse to pick up Gu Yi. Now Yue'er has to come here to learn martial arts and medical skills every day, so she can't let Gu Yi go here to pick up every day.
"Okay, I'll tell someone to clean up the carriage."
Grandma Song thanked again.
Everyone was chatting for a while, and the maid came in and reported, "Master, Madam, you're ready."
Everyone stood up and went to Dr. Yao's yard.
There was a large table in the yard, and the things brought by the Song family were placed on the table. The woman and Dr. Yao sat on the chairs on both sides of the table. The woman was wearing white clothes and holding a sword, and her whole body was cold. Dr. Yao was wearing a dark red robe, full of joy, sitting straight, not even stroking his beards.
The maid took a cushion and put it in front of the woman. Song Wanyue walked over and knelt down, took the tea brought by the maid and handed it to the woman, "Master, please have tea."
The woman took the tea expressionlessly, raised her head and drank it dry, placed the tea cup on the table, reached behind her back and took a box out, "Hold it."
Dr. Yao's smile froze on his face. He had never heard of the master giving his apprentice things when he was a disciple. While everyone was not paying attention, he took out a silver note from his arms and placed it behind him in pain. The woman gave it, but he had to give it, otherwise he would appear stingy.
The maid had already put the cushion in front of him. Song Wanyue came over and knelt down and also brought him tea, "Master, drink tea."
"Okay, OK, OK."
Dr. Yao took it with a smile, took a few symbolic sips, placed the teacup on the table, and took a silver note behind his back, "You can hold this silver note, buy whatever you like."
Song Wanyue, who could clearly see the denomination of the twenty taels of silver bill...
"Thank you, Master."
Dr. Yao stroked his beard and laughed happily. After laughing, he said, "I have discussed it with Miss Chu. You can follow me to study medicine in the morning and learn martial arts with her in the afternoon."
He finished speaking, the woman stood up, nodded slightly to Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu, and walked straight out.
"Master Yue'er wait..."
The woman stopped.
Grandma Song walked to the table, picked up the earrings and bracelets, then carried the cloth, and walked to the woman, "This is Yue'er's apprenticeship, please accept it."
The woman did not dislike the silver earrings and bracelets. She took them, held them in her hand, and easily carried the cloth, nodded slightly to Grandma Song, and turned around and left.
"The rest is mine."
Dr. Yao automatically pulled the hot pot base on the table to himself. As for pork and snacks, he didn't even look at it.
Everyone shook their heads and laughed.
After laughing, Mrs. Gu asked Grandma Song and others to go out for a while. Grandma Song waved her hand, "No, we haven't made the ingredients used in the workshop in the afternoon, and Sier has to go back to the college."
Mrs. Gu did not try to keep her, and asked someone to drive the carriage over. It was a half-old carriage, and the tent was not conspicuous. The Song family thanked her and left Song Wanyue and Xu family. Song Lin drove the carriage, and Song Shu drove the ox carriage out of Gujia Village.
Grandma Song asked Song Lin to stop, "Second, it's cold, you drive the carriage to see Si'er off, let's go back by the ox carriage."
"Need not."
Song Si stopped him, "I can just go to make a ox cart and talk to my father by the way."
Grandma Song couldn't resist her and told Song Shu to slow down on the road.
Song Shu responded. After Song Si got on, he covered the quilt on the ox cart on him, and then drove the ox cart to the county.
The father and the other two talked while walking, mostly Song Shu talked about what happened when he set up a stall. Song Si listened and asked occasionally a few questions.
As he was about to reach the city gate, a carriage suddenly rushed over from the opposite side. The horse seemed to be crazy. The coachman couldn't hold it back. He was so shocked that he kept shouting, "Doway, dodge it!"
Passers-by avoided the ox cart, but the ox cart couldn't be allowed to move for a while. Seeing the cart hitting straight towards the ox cart.
