"Xiao Yu, why do you carry rheumatism ointment with you?"
Feng Lingyu was stunned.
This is really hard to explain. It's normal to carry something to stop bleeding, but carrying something to treat rheumatism...
You can't say that she was a prophet and knew in advance that she would meet someone with rheumatism.
What a bad decision.
Feng Lingyu was really embarrassed to take advantage of the old lady, and thought that it would be basically impossible to see the old lady again in the future, so he lost his mind for a moment and took out the ointment from the space in front of Shen Huaiyu.
I forgot how sharp Shen Huaiyu is.
"This... I took the wrong thing today. I originally wanted to carry some sleeping pills with me..." Feng Lingyu explained dryly.
"So that's how it is..." Shen Huaiyu lowered his eyes and didn't continue asking.
Xiaoyu, no matter what secrets you have, I am waiting for the day when you are willing to tell me in person...
The two of them returned to the garden smoothly along the same route.
The garden was still the same as before they left, with everyone socializing with each other.
After a while, a voice came from the crowd: "Here they come!"
Everyone's eyes were looking towards the garden entrance, waiting for today's protagonist to enter.
Facing everyone's gaze, unexpectedly, the first two to come in were two middle-aged men.
A man with a medium-length beard, wearing a Zhongshan suit, with two furrows between his eyebrows, which showed that he frowned frequently.
The other one was wearing a standard suit, with a smile on his face, and seemed to have a good temper.
But Feng Lingyu could see that there was no smile in his eyes.
"These two must be Master Xiao's two disciples. The one with the beard is the eldest disciple Xu Wenyuan, and the other one in a suit should be the second disciple Xie Lai."
The two disciples that Xiao Zongqi accepted in his early years were also successful in their careers and had long since become bigwigs in their respective fields.
So everyone present had heard it.
"It seems that Master Xiao attaches great importance to this disciple recruitment... He even called back his two favorite students."
"Have you heard that Mr. Xiao originally had a candidate in mind this time, but others said that Mr. Xiao shouldn't be so hasty. That's why this selection was made."
Some people knew some inside information and were whispering about it.
A flash of displeasure passed through Xue Xinqi's eyes.
According to this group of people, did he get this opportunity because of other people's help?
"Uncle Zhao, do you know who the person they are talking about who was originally going to be accepted as a disciple by Master Xiao is?" Xue Xinqi turned around and asked Adjutant Zhao who was standing behind him.
"It's a boy named Shen Huaiyu, who is said to be only sixteen years old this year. His family was originally in the army, but later something happened at home, so..."
Adjutant Zhao naturally knew all the people who came to participate in the selection this time, and he also talked about Shen Huaiyu in detail.
"Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" Xue Xinqi was very unhappy.
From this point of view, this man named Shen Huaiyu is his biggest opponent this time.
The worst thing is that Mr. Xiao originally favored him...
Zhao Yong had no words to express his pain, as Mr. Xue had not allowed him to tell Xue Xinqi the news.
He was told to make his own way with his own abilities and not to do anything behind the scenes. After all, the fact that Xue Xinqi was Commander Xue's grandson already gave him some advantages.
Now that the selection is about to begin, it doesn't matter if Zhao Yong tells the news, and Xue Xinqi can't do anything.
Xie Lai poked Xu Wenyuan with his elbow and said, "Big Brother, do you think the teacher can find a satisfactory disciple this time?"
Xu Wenyuan had always been very well behaved in front of others, but when he sensed Xie Lai's actions, he glared at him with a dark face.
"It's been a long time since we last met. Where are your manners? The teacher has his own ideas. Why are you guessing so much?"
Feeling that the majesty of the senior brother was the same as before, Xie Lai straightened his back unconsciously, "Oh, I see, senior brother."
"Teacher, you are here!" Xu Wenyuan saw Xiao Zongqi and hurriedly went up to him, wanting to support him.
"Big brother, the teacher is still very strong. He even had the strength to hit me with two sticks just now! Why does he need you to help him? Right, teacher?" Xie Lai also came over and said with a grin.
Seeing that Xie Lai was being naughty in front of the teacher, Xu Wenyuan wanted to scold him again, but Xie Lai was so smart that he immediately jumped behind Xiao Zongqi and hid.
"Okay, you've made Wenyuan angry again. How come you're still acting like a child after all this time? You deserve the two beatings I gave you. It's obvious that when people get older, they can't stay married..."
When people get older, they like to be urged to get married, and even big shots like Xiao Zongqi are no exception.
Seeing that the topic was about to turn to his marriage, Xie Lai quickly interrupted: "Okay, okay, I know I was wrong. Teacher, today is the day for you to accept a disciple, so you should do your job. You can punish me anytime..."
The people around were watching Master Xiao Zongqi and his two disciples chatting animatedly, so how could they be so tactless as to interrupt them?
"I heard that Mr. Xiao and his two disciples have a very deep relationship. It seems that what he said is true..."
"Yes, yes, but they have been master and apprentice for many years, so it is natural that they have a deep relationship."
"Not only that, when he was young, Old Xiao raised these two disciples as his own sons and always kept them by his side. It was only in the past few years that they went out to develop their own careers."
Feng Lingyu and Shen Huaiyu listened to what these people said and tried their best to extract some useful information.
"In the future, if you become Mr. Xiao's disciple, you will have two senior brothers." Feng Lingyu joked.
“What, Shen Huaiyu, are you also one of the people who came to participate in the selection of Master Xiao’s disciples today?”
Qin Baolin happened to squeeze in and stand next to Shen Huaiyu, and heard what Feng Lingyu said.
He was very surprised that Shen Huaiyu, with such a status, could come to participate in the selection?
Besides, he went to the countryside for two years. Did he ever touch a book?
Some people around also heard Qin Baolin's exclamation and looked towards Shen Huaiyu.
My first impression was that this boy was really good-looking.
But this time, Master Xiao is selecting disciples based on their knowledge, not their looks. What’s the point of just being good-looking?
In fact, this world is not only biased against good-looking women.
I also look at good-looking men with tinted glasses.
Feng Lingyu looked at the eyes of the people around him and his face darkened.
Why is this person everywhere? It's so annoying.
Qin Baolin also realized that his exclamation just now attracted other people's attention, and he felt a little embarrassed.
He didn't mean it, and he didn't mean any harm, he was just surprised.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that. Just stay with me for a while. I'm here to participate in the auditions, too."
Qin Baolin thought about taking better care of Shen Huaiyu in a while, so that he wouldn't be embarrassed by not being able to answer Mr. Xiao's questions.
