Chapter 811 Master and apprentice
Although Li Nai has not become an official, he has been with his father since he was a teenager. He has never heard anything, so he can naturally hear the threat.
But unexpectedly, the Cao family and the prince's mansion were involved behind him. Li Nai originally wanted to discuss the matter with Cao Yong, but now he has changed his mind.
He said a few words in his mouth, and was very polite, and sent Yang Ruixue away.
Yang Ruixue thought he was moved, so she took him a little proud, so she went out to get on the carriage. When she got on the carriage, she remembered the Li Xu who looked kind and was very cruel in her words, and she couldn't help but shudder.
Then she comforted herself that she was thinking too much. In her early years, she had a narrow horizon in the south and thought that the Cao family and the Li family were powerful. When she arrived in the capital, she saw the wealth of the bannermen, and realized that in the eyes of the capital, the Li family was not worth much...
Cao Yong only stayed in the capital for one day, and left the city early the next morning to go to Changping Zhuangzi.
The other ones were also Zhaojia, Jade, Fourth Sister, Wuer and Wuer. The "Five Seven" had already been burned in the Shangshu Mansion. Zhaojia was thinking about going to Changping to find Li's family these days. Knowing that Cao Yong happened to be back, he took Jade and his two daughters out of the city with him.
Jinghui has to take care of her two daughters and manage housework, which is inseparable. Chunhua offended Zhaojia because of the incident of Baodie's concubine last month, so Zhaojia would not like her. Zhaojia was reluctant to take her away with her remaining Suxin. After all, her son was studying and needed someone to take care of her.
Therefore, no one of the three wives was brought with me.
Although Marhan is older, his status is still there, and it is considered to be the reliance of Zhaojia's family. Now that the old man has passed away, Zhaojia's family is also quite hit, and he looks much more honest.
In addition, there were only two elders of the same age as Li in the family. They got together and talked about the past in Jiangning in their early years, which was also relieved.
Although Cao Yong didn't like her, Cao Song, who wanted to go to Qinghai, could not argue with her.
The years in the villa have been peaceful.
In a blink of an eye, it was early April.
Fang Zonggong took Qi Niang to the village to say goodbye, and Vanilla already knew about Qi Niang's return home. Although he couldn't bear to let go, it was related to Qi Niang's lifelong affairs, and Fang Zonggong was the master, so Vanilla couldn't say anything.
She held back her tears, took out a large plain satin package and gave it to Qi Niang, and said, "This was prepared for you two years ago. I originally wanted to do it more finely, but my skills were limited, and I was a little rushing to work these days. It's somewhat my wish, so Qi Niang should not dislike it."
Qi Niang was a little curious and hesitated to open it or not to see it. Then she heard Fancao say, "Come on and try it. I think you have to be longer, so I'll make it bigger. If it doesn't fit, I'll change it for you in the next two days."
When Qi Niang heard this, she opened the bag in her hand and saw that it was bright red and beautifully dressed in a beautiful wedding dress.
Seeing this, Qi Niang had already pounced on Xiangcao's arms and choked and said, "Aunt Xiang, Aunt Xiang..."
Vancao felt bitter when she heard this, touched her head and said, "Don't you be angry with Aunt Xiang? If you had known you would have returned to your hometown with your father, and you would have picked you up as soon as possible."
Qi Niang buried her head in the arms of Xiangcao and said with a sob: "It's all Qi Niang, it's not. We shouldn't be competing with the little kid. My father is old and wants to go back to his hometown. I have to obey, but I can't bear to part with Aunt Xiang..."
Vanilla lived with her for several years, and she was reluctant to see her growing from a yellow-haired girl to a graceful girl. However, from Fujian to the capital, thousands of miles away, I am afraid that I will never have the chance to meet again...
Qi Niang said goodbye at the vanilla place, while Fang Zhonggong was talking to Cao Yong.
Cao Yong felt guilty about the father and daughter of the Fang family. They were originally idle Yun Yehe who was free in the world, and for their own selfishness, they were stranded in the capital for several years.
Before leaving, in addition to the other things such as silver and money, Cao Yong also carefully prepared a gift for Mr. Fang Zhong.
Flipping through the books in the box in his hand, Fang Zhonggong's hand trembled slightly. This is a royal collection of medical skills. People have always only heard of it, but now it has fallen into his own hands.
"Master Cao..." Mr. Fang Zhong raised his head and looked at Cao Yong, feeling that the word "Xie" could not express his feelings.
"Old Fang, although Fujian is far away from the capital, if there is something to do in the future, don't forget Cao's side. Brother Wei has a good relationship with Sister-in-law of Xiangcao and Qi Niang. Cao Jia and Qi Niang are also known as master and disciple, so everyone is worried about her." Cao Yong said.
Mr. Fang Zhonggong thought that he was nearly 70 years old and his relatives were withering in his hometown. He put down the box in his hand and said solemnly: "In this way, the old man has thanked Mr. Cao."
When Cao Yong saw him respond, he felt relieved. It was not that he had thought of persuading the old man to choose a son-in-law in the capital, but at this time people pay attention to "returning to the roots of fallen leaves". The old man insisted on returning home, in addition to his daughter's marriage, he also had his own funeral.
As Qi Niang said in her early years, the Fang family was just a civilian, and Fang Zhonggong was in the world in his early years. If he offended the government or provoked some enemies, Cao Yong could help him whenever he could get news.
Mr. Fang Zhong was very grateful for Cao Yong's kindness, but he was quite worried about his daughter's master-apprenticeship with Cao Jia.
Fang Zhonggong’s hometown is in eastern Fujian, and the customs there are different from those in the capital.
The capital is at the foot of the emperor and the bannermen are noble. In the east of Fujian, the people are strong in customs, and most of them live in Hakkas and Fujian mountain people. In their eyes, if they are not of our race, their hearts will be different. In private, they all call Manchus "Tartars".
In the early years, the base camp of Hongmen was Fujian.
Later, there was an internal strife in the Hongmen Sect, and the leader of the Hongmen Sect disappeared. The eight inner sects were divided, and the eight outer sects were unable to leave. No one mentioned this "reverse the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty".
Although Mr. Fang Zhonggong was not from the Hongmen, his friends he met in his early years were all from the Hongmen, and he knew more about the Hongmen.
Even so, in the eyes of the Jianghu people in the south, the Manchus and the Han people who defected to the court cannot be considered the same clan.
If it was spread, the master Qi Niang worshipped was from a bannerman's family. When Fang Zhonggong thought of this, he always felt something was wrong. But he was not a ungrateful person. The Cao family treated Qi Niang very well. Although Cao Jia hid his real name, he taught Qi Niang in recent years and taught many unique skills.
After all, Cao Yong was not a man from the martial arts world. He didn't know what those of the martial arts world people were saying. Seeing that Fang Zhonggong was not saying anything, he just thought he had nothing to say. He had already given what he should give, and he had also explained what he should explain. Cao Yong had nothing to say, so he asked someone to take Fang Zhonggong down to settle it.
Qi Niang saw Vanilla and Wei Hei again. Although Wei Hei was reluctant to let go, it was hard for a big man to show everything on his face.
He handed the box of golden beads that had been prepared into Qi Niang's hand and said, "Take the pocket flowers."
Qi Niang felt heavy in her hands, and felt uncomfortable in her heart, and murmured: "Uncle..."
Seeing that she was about to cry, Wei Hei felt unbearable and stood up and said, "By the way, your master heard that you were coming and asked you to see him at Zhuangzi School. Go out of this yard and turn left, and pass two yards."
Qi Niang handed the box in her hand to Xiangcao to collect it. He listened to Wei Hei's words and went to the schoolyard to look for Cao Jia.
Although Cao Jia is usually cold, Qi Niang is still grateful to this master.
I don’t know if it’s because of the separation, Cao Jia looked much more kind than usual. Seeing Qi Niang coming, his expression was much softer and said, “How are you practicing Baihe Fist? Let’s take a look.”
Qi Niang wore a half-length gown on the upper body and tight-legged pants on the lower body. It would be fine to practice fists and feet.
After a fight of boxing, it was like flowing water.
When Cao Jia saw it, he had no intention of complimenting. He picked out a few mistakes and gave some advice.
Qi Niang had a stern face, listened carefully, and remembered it one by one in her heart. Occasionally, she also raised several doubts, and some postures and movements were performed in a different way, which was cheaper than the commands taught by the master at first.
Cao Jia listened and thought. The master and apprentice occasionally demonstrated it. In some places, Cao Jia nodded, while in some places, he shook his head, pointing out Qi Niang's fallacy in understanding boxing.
After Cao Jia finished preaching, he looked over there with his hands behind his back, and said, "Back to Fujian, if someone asks about the origin of your boxing, there is no need to mention me. After today, I will no longer be your master."
Qi Niang was shocked when she heard this.
Not only scholars emphasize "a teacher for one day and a father for life", but people in the martial arts world also attach great importance to mastering. Not recognizing masters is a great evil to deceive teachers and destroy ancestors.
"Master, is it Qi Niang who disappointed the master?" Qi Niang thought that Cao Jia had just picked her fault and regretted it. It was because she was too self-righteous and learned the boxing skills taught by her master in a mess.
Cao Jia shook his head, and after a while, he turned his head and said, "Qinniang is a brilliant skeleton. She is only in her teenage years, and she has achieved success now. She is much better than when she was a young master. Why bother with her reputation? As long as you think I am a master in your heart, you are not treated by outsiders, so what's wrong?"
Qi Niang remembered what Cao Yi said in her early years that the master was a celebrity in the martial arts world, and in the southern green forest in her early years, she was also a person who called the wind and rain. She hid in the Cao family, because she was tired of fighting in the martial arts world, and she also owed the favors of the Cao family.
She is also an open-minded person. She thought that since her master lived in seclusion and did not want to become famous, she would not refute his intentions.
There was only one thing she had to ask. After all, Cao Jia took back his master and apprenticeship, but when she was alive, she would remember that she had a master in the capital.
"The master doesn't let Qi Niang tell others that the master is the master, but Qi Niang doesn't say it, but can the master tell Qi Niang what the master is? Qi Niang won't tell anyone else, Qi Niang will remember it in her heart." Qi Niang looked at Cao Jia and said with a little prayer.
Cao Jia was quite surprised when he heard this and said in a deep voice: "Name...I'm already dead..."
I usually feel that my master is not as happy or angry as a wooden man. Now that I see his true feelings come out, Qi Niang feels very sad.
That kind of confused and sad expression is really not suitable for your master.
Qi Niang was already very regretful. Since the master was lying in seclusion and had no relatives around him, he was destined to have something sad, so he really shouldn't mention this.
