"Oh, you are so confident."
Lin Xianyu was happy. Both his apprentice and Ye Xiaotian were full of confidence.
However, Lin Xianyu felt that it was not difficult for his apprentice to become a scholar. Although he had only been studying seriously for more than a year, his mother had never given up on letting him read and write. She had taught him since he was a child, but she did not have systematic learning. That¡¯s all.
But thinking about Ye Xiaotian, Lin Xianyu couldn't help but feel a little worried. He should be taking part in the provincial examination soon, and he didn't know if the final result would really satisfy him.
¡°But Master, you have forgotten that the county examination is in February and this year¡¯s exam has already passed.¡±
Wu Tianchang then hit Lin Xianyu again.
"I'm really confused."
Lin Xianyu smiled: "There is still half a year left, only success is allowed and no failure is allowed."
"Don't worry, Master, it's just Master, are you really going back to the capital at the end of this year?"
Wu Tianchang was a little unhappy.
"Yes, this has been decided a long time ago. If you want to go to the capital with me, I can take you with me. You can also have someone transfer your household registration to the capital to take the county examination."
Lin Xianyu never thought of his apprentice's situation.
"No, Master, I will take the exam here. I don't want to leave my mother during the Chinese New Year. If Master really doesn't come back, after I finish the county exam, I will go to the capital to continue studying medicine with you."
After all, Wu Tianchang still couldn¡¯t bear to part with his mother.
"If your mother is willing, you can go to the capital with us."
Lin Xianyu didn't think so much when he accepted Wu Tianchang as his apprentice. He just accepted Wu Tianchang because he thought he was suitable. Now it seems that he is really in trouble.
"My mother won't be willing to leave. She just wants to guard my father, even if it's just the grave."
Wu Tianchang sighed: "But my mother is in good health now, and my master is here, and no one dares to bully her, so I can rest assured and follow my master to study medicine. Can I come back during the New Year?"
"Of course you can, you are a good and filial boy."
Lin Xianyu laughed: "I'll think about how to arrange this matter."
Lin Xianyu then gave Wu Tianchang a test, then asked Wu Tianchang to leave, and then asked someone to call Zhang Xiaoyue.
"Mrs."
Nowadays, Zhang Xiaoyue has grown up and has matured into a big girl. She is tall and graceful. Moreover, the prejudice brought against her because of her appearance has basically disappeared. Moreover, because of her appearance, Zhang Xiaoyue always looks cold to strangers. A distant expression.
Because Zhang Xiaoyue¡¯s eyes are so beautiful, looking at her posture and smiling a little will give people a kind of affectionate look, so Zhang Xiaoyue also restrains this, and only shows her lively side in front of acquaintances.
"Xiaoyue, why do you seem to rarely come to me recently?"
Lin Xianyu said softly.
"There are many people to serve Madam, I just need to take good care of the flowers and plants."
Zhang Xiaoyue answered respectfully. She always remembered her position very clearly, gardener.
"Pfft, you really don't need to be so cautious. Xiaoyue, how are you doing with your homework recently?"
Lin Xianyu was a little helpless, but she could also understand Zhang Xiaoyue's thoughts. After all, Zhang Xiaoyue was not like Wu Tianchang. Wu Tianchang was a serious apprentice, and his servants called him Young Master, and he was protected by his mother.
As for Zhang Xiaoyue, although Lin Xianyu took care of her, he did not specifically say what kind of treatment he would give her. She has always been a gardener. Although she has learned a lot, unlike ordinary maids, no one bullied her. He even sent her to school, but she was an orphan after all, so she felt that it was inevitable to be dependent on others. More importantly, she was afraid that others would think that she didn't know how to behave.
After Grandma Wang and Chun Yu came, Zhang Xiaoyue came less often. After all, when there was only Hongying as a maid, sometimes Hongying would call Zhang Xiaoyue to help when she was too busy, but now it is impossible. There is a problem of not enough staff.
In addition, the grandmothers from the Dongfang family are very organized in everything they do. Although they have no discrimination against Zhang Xiaoyue, they don't like Zhang Xiaoyue very much. Of course, not only Zhang Xiaoyue, but also other people in the courtyard do not like anyone. Except for Wu Tianchang, he was Lin Xianyu's apprentice.
But it was hard for Lin Xianyu to say anything. After all, on the surface, Grandma Wang and the others were already doing very well, but deep down they looked down on the people here. Lin Xianyu could not force others to do so.His calm appearance makes people feel very reliable at first glance.
"Mrs."
Hong Ying bowed respectfully.
"Hongying, what do you think of Xiaoyue?"
Lin Xianyu never beats around the bush and speaks directly.
"Xiaoyue is very good."
Hongying¡¯s answer is always so straightforward.
¡°I will be your apprentice and learn from you, will you accept me?¡±
After Lin Xianyu said this, Zhang Xiaoyue looked at Hongying nervously.
"Just follow me and learn. As for whether to accept a disciple or not, there is no need to mention it. I am not qualified to accept a disciple."
Hong Ying looked at Zhang Xiaoyue: "You don't need to be a disciple, you can learn from me, but you still have to learn. This is Madam's rule."
"Yes, Sister Hongying."
Although Zhang Xiaoyue was a little depressed when she heard that Hongying would not accept a disciple, she became excited again when she heard that she was willing to take her to learn.
"It's not that I don't accept you as an apprentice, but I really don't have the qualifications to accept you as an apprentice. Besides, Madam really thinks highly of you, so don't betray Madam's trust."
After Hongying finished speaking, she stood aside respectfully. She knew Lin Xianyu best. She felt that Lin Xianyu had other arrangements for Zhang Xiaoyue, and according to the rules of the Dongfang family, she was indeed not qualified to accept a disciple, so she Speak out frankly.
"Okay, Hongying, you can continue your work. I still have some things to ask Xiaoyue alone. As for Xiaoyue, you must learn from Hongying well in the future. Although Hongying has not accepted you as his apprentice, you still have to Respect her as your master.¡±
Lin Xianyu thought about asking Zhang Xiaoyue about Wu Tianchang later, so it was better to get rid of the others first. After all, the little girl was thin-skinned.
"Yes, ma'am."
The two of them agreed in unison, and Hongying left. After all, she really had a lot to do.
"Xiaoyue, there is one more personal matter I want to ask you."
Lin Xianyu then looked at Zhang Xiaoyue very softly.
¡°Madam, please ask.¡±
Zhang Xiaoyue was a little confused. Did she have any personal matters that Lin Xianyu should ask specifically about.
"If I remember correctly, you should have passed your thirteenth birthday."
Lin Xianyu vaguely remembered that Zhang Xiaoyue's birthday should be in the first half of the year.
"Yes, madam, I just turned thirteen two months ago."
Zhang Xiaoyue never expected that Lin Xianyu would remember her birthday, and she couldn't help but be touched.
"Thirteen is neither too old nor too young. If you have someone you like, tell me, madam, I will make the decision for you."
Lin Xianyu stared at Zhang Xiaoyue. After hearing this, Zhang Xiaoyue's face turned red with embarrassment.
"Madam, I"
Zhang Xiaoyue hesitated for a moment: "Madam, I haven't actually thought about this."
"Is that so? Have your parents arranged a marriage for you?"
Lin Xianyu looked at Zhang Xiaoyue and couldn't help but ask, after all, it is not uncommon to get married on the fingertips.
"No, actually it's not no, it's just"
There was a little sadness in Zhang Xiaoyue's tone.
"I know. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned it."
Lin Xianyu was a little embarrassed and mentioned Zhang Xiaoyue's sadness again.
"Madam, you don't need to apologize. I want to thank my wife and the general for avenging my family. Regardless of whether they are among those people, tens of thousands of people are enough to comfort the souls of our village."
After Zhang Xiaoyue heard this, she quickly knelt down and kowtowed.
"Okay, Xiaoyue, get up."
¡°I¡¯m just asking you if you have a sweetheart, because I should be returning to Beijing at the end of the year, and I may not be back for a long time.¡±
"If you really have it, while I'm still here, I can help you make the decision."
Lin Xianyu asked again. She had already given Zhang Xiaoyue the opportunity. If she insisted not to say anything, Lin Xianyu would not force it.
"Ma'am, I'm not worthy."
Zhang Xiaoyue finally spoke.
"Nonsense, our Xiaoyue is so beautiful and outstanding, how can she not be worthy of her?"
Lin Xianyu didn¡¯t expect that there was really someone in Zhang Xiaoyue¡¯s heart.
"But both my parents are dead, and I am just an orphan."
Zhang Xiaoyue is actually very inferior: "She still has the face of a foreigner."
"So who does Xiaoyue like?"
"I said I would make the decision for you, and I will make the decision for you. Of course, if others are not interested in you, I will not force it, but I will definitely find a good home for you."
Lin Xianyu looked at Zhang Xiaoyue seriously. With her three-dimensional facial features and deep eyes, Zhang Xiaoyue clearly looked like a beautiful mixed-race beauty, but she did not expect that Zhang Xiaoyue would be so inferior to her own appearance.
