Chapter 295: Giving the Apprenticeship Ceremony
This journey goes from dusk to dawn.
Finally seeing the border of Liangzhou, Meng Changqing thought that since he became a disciple on the third day of junior high school, the apprenticeship ceremony has been delayed.
Just take this opportunity and take a trip to Luojiang County.
"Everyone, I will take Bafang to Luojiang County. Brother Yang, could you please go to Liangzhou Prefecture? I left Liangzhou without permission and I have to apologize to Mr. Futai. Please bring me a message saying that I will be here tomorrow. Hold the apology letter and go to apologize.
Mr. Qi, you go back first. ”
"My lord, I've been traveling all night. If it's not something urgent, why not go to Luojiang County later." Qi Renli also felt sorry for Meng Changqing.
"Nothing, Mr. Ding from Luojiang is my master. When I go to Luojiang County, it will be the same as when I go to Beishan County."
Qi Renli was stunned. Was it because he had inaccurate information? There is a rumor in the capital that Lord Meng wants to join the Taifu family. Who is this Lord Ding?
How did he know that Meng Changqing had many masters?
The group of people split into three groups here. Yang was going to Liangzhou Mansion to deliver a message. Not long after leaving, he found a person following behind him. Upon closer inspection, it was Wang Xun of the Royal Forest Army.
"Master Wang!" Yang Zheng waved to the person behind him, "We have come all the way to this point, why not continue to walk together?"
Yang Zheng didn't know if he had seen it wrong. Why did he feel that Wang Xun felt guilty.
The more this happened, the more Yang Zheng was stuck in the middle of the road, waiting for Wang Xun to come over on his own.
Unable to avoid it, Wang Xun had no choice. He came to Yang Zheng, laughed awkwardly, and said his temporary excuse, "I didn't want to go to Liangzhou City, but later my brother reminded me that it was dried meat." No more, I have to buy some.”
Yang Zheng could tell something was wrong at these words, "Oh, the jerky is gone. Didn't the jerky you eat come from the capital?"
"Ahem!" Wang Xun swept away the ashes on his face, "I also bought it in Liangzhou City."
"I see. I wonder where the dried meat is delicious in Liangzhou City? Just tell me and I can take it back."
"I won't bother you anymore." Wang Xun wanted to go around Yang Zheng, but was blocked by Yang Zheng. "You haven't told me where the dried meat is delicious. I want to try it too."
"The post house is just fine there."
Yang Zheng laughed heartily twice, "Thank you for informing me. Mr. Wang, why don't you wait for me and let's go together. Maybe if we buy more, the inn can be a few cents cheaper."
"No." Wang Xun controlled the horse to avoid Yang Zheng, "We have a lot of money per month, so we don't need these few pennies. See you later."
Yang Zheng stared at his running back and did not catch up rashly.
Let’s talk about Meng Changqing.
She went to give the apprenticeship ceremony, regardless of other good or bad things, the most important thing was that the six etiquettes were present.
She has been apprenticed many times and is very experienced, but this time it is useless to have any experience. At this time of year, there is no celery seller in Liangzhou.
Passing the mountain along the way, she asked Bafang to go to the county town to buy other things first, while she climbed up the mountain. If there was one in Luojiang County, it could only be in the wild and had just emerged not long ago.
Sometimes, Meng Changqing's luck is really good.
I didn't wander around the mountain for long when I saw a handful of them, which were no taller than Meng Changqing's hand, but I couldn't care less about how beautiful they were at the moment, just have them.
She dug it out by the roots, shook off the soil, and found a piece of cloth to wrap it first.
When they arrived at the county townhouse, they were handed over to Bafang for unified packaging. She took the time to take a shower and put on the newly bought clothes from Bafang.
After packing everything up, I went to Luojiang County Government Office. When Ding Aixue saw Meng Changqing coming over, his eyes lit up with joy. He grabbed him before he could finish the salute, "I thought you would come back after the spring plowing, but I didn't expect that our master and apprentice would meet again so soon."< br>
"Master, Changqing came here this time to make up for the apprenticeship ceremony." Meng Changqing took the boxes carried by Bafang's two hands and placed them on the table next to her. In addition to the six gifts, there were also the pen and ink she usually gave. Inkstone, medium grade. Given her age, it is reasonable to give such a thing to her elders.
Ding Aixue looked at the gifts on the table and knew Meng Changqing's sincerity. Everything was packaged very delicately, "Okay! I'll send someone to tell your wife to get ready now."
Tea and mats were quickly delivered to him, and Ding Aixue accepted Meng Changqing's kneeling in the main hall.
After the ceremony, Ding Aixue greeted each other enthusiastically, "It's almost lunch time, so I'll stay here to eat. Your master's wife has already gone to prepare the meal."
"Thank you, Master and Master."
When Meng Changqing is left to eat, of course she is not the only one who has to take care of her food. Bafang, Chu Mufeng, Zhou Qiwen and others also have to take care of it.
A square table was just full, and Meng Changqing offered tea instead of wine to his master and his wife.
"You're welcome. I don't know if the temporarily prepared meal is to your taste." Meng Changqing's new mistress said.
The new mistress is a seemingly quiet woman, with delicate features and generous manners.
Meng Changqing replied: "They are all good food, very suitable to my appetite. Thank you for your hard work, Master."
Xifang smiled and said: "It's commonplace, not hard work."
After being polite, Meng Changqing began to eat formally. There was nothing wrong with her eating appearance outside. Ding Aixue watched her every move and was quite satisfied.
Just after careful observation, I noticed that Meng Changqing was asking, "Did you not sleep well yesterday?"
Meng Changqing put down his chopsticks, "It's not that I didn't sleep well, it's that I didn't sleep at all."
"What's wrong?" Ding Aixue asked. Xifang, who was sitting next to him, also looked at Meng Changqing curiously.
"I rushed back from Dazhou overnight and passed through Luojiang County. I came here to pay my respects to Master."
"Dazhou?" Ding Aixue was even more confused, "What are you doing in Dazhou?"
"Due to some things, my county government officials were in danger in a county in Dazhou. I rushed to rescue them. Fortunately, they were rescued."
"You kid, why don't you explain clearly why the people from your county came to the state? And why are they in danger?"
Meng Changqing did not hide anything and told all the reasons, process and results of the trip.
She was somewhat eloquent, and she said that Xifang didn't even have the heart to eat.
Unlike Xifang who took the words seriously, Ding Aixue frowned when he heard it and didn't say anything after that.
He sighed: "You are really reckless about this."
Meng Changqing knew in her heart that the reason why she told this matter was to let the new master know that although the relationship between the two was a master and apprentice, it was best not to publicize this relationship, otherwise she might offend her again. People, hurting Master and his family.
"Yes, Master Nawen is destined to hate me."
"It doesn't matter whether he hates you or not." Ding Aixue said: "Master Wen is like Xu Wen, I have dealt with him.
He is a very vengeful person, but maybe he has too many enemies to remember, or maybe he is too motivated to remember. In short, it is rare to hear that anyone has actually taken revenge from him.
Moreover, he also has quite a temper. Only those with higher official positions than him would he be willing to calm down a little and talk to others normally.
If you don't do this, I'm afraid it will be difficult. ”
