For some reason, he felt an unusual closeness to the little girl from the very first moment he saw her; perhaps it was fate!
The little girl seemed to know he wasn't a bad person, so she wasn't too scared and softly called him grandpa.
Seeing that the little girl was clever, he wanted to take her back to Hundred Flowers Valley. When she saw that he was going to take her away, she was so frightened that she cried and hugged his neck, crying so hard that she could not catch her breath. She said that her father was a great general, that she had sneaked out and then got lost, and that she needed him to help her get back.
Seeing how pitifully she was crying, he couldn't bear to take her away and sent her back to the General's Mansion.
However, she wasn't brought in through the main gate; instead, she was secretly taken back by scaling the wall.
Because he felt a connection with the little girl, he visited her twice more, each time bringing some herbs to teach her to identify them. To his surprise, the little girl learned them very quickly each time. Seeing how intelligent she was, he decided to take her on as a disciple.
Fortunately, the girl herself also liked learning medicine, so she formally became his apprentice.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, they kept their master-disciple relationship a secret from everyone, including the girl's parents. He would secretly bring her out to teach her, or he would sneak into the General's mansion to teach her.
I never imagined that I would be teaching for so many years. He only stayed in Dongchu for more than ten years.
Bai Shi never expected that he came to Dong Chu because of his maternal grandfather. His connection with Ning'er was also partly due to his maternal grandfather.
Thinking that her maternal grandfather had mentioned Doctor Luo before his death, Bai felt a pang of regret.
The two people who cared about each other never actually met.
"I never expected that kid to be your son, Heming's great-grandson. It's quite a coincidence," Pei Luo said with a sigh.
He never expected that he and Heming would have such a connection!
So he's Heming's great-grandson. No wonder he's quite fond of that kid.
Upon hearing this, Madam Bai immediately laughed: "How can that not be? A teacher for a day is a father for life. You are like Ning'er's father. Our two families have become related by marriage, which is of course the greatest fate!"
If my maternal grandfather were still alive, he would surely be happy to know that his great-grandson had married Doctor Luo and the others.
Pei Luo also felt that fate was very strange, and he should go and meet that old friend when he had time.
When Xuan Yuanzhan returned after accompanying Su Xuening on her walk, Pei Luo and Bai Shi had already finished their game of chess.
Moqi and Granny Shang prepared a table full of dishes for us. Although it was a table full of dishes, it was still quite different from what we had at the Prince's Mansion because it was a rural area with limited ingredients.
However, it was definitely much more lavish than what Pei Luo and the others had eaten before.
Seeing the two return, Youyi greeted them with a smile, "You're back just in time, dinner is ready."
Everyone sat around the stone table, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Granny Shang, Mo Qi, Ye Yun, and the others brought out another wooden table, which also filled the table.
Looking at the two tables full of people, Youyi was extremely satisfied: "Senior brother, this is the first time this bamboo house has been so lively!"
Pei Luo seemed to be in a good mood today: "Indeed, it's a rare treat to have such a lively atmosphere!"
He was a quiet person by nature, but he didn't find the lively atmosphere too noisy and thought it was quite nice.
You Yi, on the other hand, really enjoyed the lively atmosphere: "Isn't it more lively with more people? I always told you to take on more apprentices, then we could have a few tables full of your disciples and their descendants, and that would be quite a spectacle."
Pei Luo was speechless: "If you're so eloquent, why don't you take on a disciple?"
He at least accepted two, while he didn't get any, yet he started lecturing him.
Speaking of taking on apprentices, You Yi recalled something: "Why wouldn't I take them on? I would!"
You Yi suddenly turned to Su Xuening, looking at her expectantly: "Girl, would you like to become my apprentice?"
Before Su Xuening could answer, Pei Luo slapped her across the face: "You want to die? How dare you steal my disciple!"
Even though Youyi was hit by Pei Luo, he didn't dare to cry out in pain. He even said with a grin, "I didn't steal it. Wouldn't it be better if we were both the girl's teachers? At worst, you can be the eldest teacher and I can be the second teacher."
Since he's his senior brother anyway, he'll just have to take a loss and become the second master.
"Don't even think about having a master or a second master!"
Second Master Pei Luo also disagreed!
Seeing Pei Luo's autocratic attitude, You Yi got angry: "Hey, that's not what you said when you begged me to remove the curse from the girl!"
Pei Luo feigned innocence, asking, "What did I say?"
Su Yun'an chimed in, "My master didn't say anything!"
Youyi was instantly enraged by the two of them: "Ugh, you two scoundrels!"
Youyi turned to Su Xuening and complained, "Girl, look at this old man and this child, they're so mean. Just tell me if you'd like to become my disciple!"
Su Xuening blinked and said, "But I already have a master!"
Su Xuening had never really thought about becoming a disciple of her martial uncle.
She's a true martial arts master, after all. She already has a master, how could she possibly become a disciple of her martial arts master?
Su Xuening's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over him, instantly leaving You Yi feeling dejected.
Seeing this, Su Xuening thought for a moment and then said, "How about this, after my son is born, you can ask him for his opinion."
Although she has a master, her son doesn't have one yet.
...Upon hearing this, Youyi's eyes lit up instantly; this was indeed a viable solution.
"That's good, that's good." You Yi stared at Su Xuening's belly, his previous disappointment replaced by a broad smile.
He was already looking forward to his little apprentice.
With both the girl and Xuan Yuanzhan being so good-looking, his little apprentice is bound to be incredibly beautiful in the future!
Moreover, with the girl's high talent for medicine and Xuan Yuanzhan's excellent martial arts skills, their child would definitely be a master of both medicine and martial arts!
Fortunately, he could teach both medicine and martial arts.
If he also enjoys studying unorthodox methods, he can teach him a Gu technique. In short, whatever his little apprentice wants to learn, he can teach him.
Just thinking about how he was about to have an incredibly beautiful little apprentice made You Yi so excited that his heart was about to soar, and his gaze towards Su Xuening's belly became burning hot.
Su Xuening felt her scalp tingle from You Yi's gaze.
Oh no, it seems her martial uncle has his eye on her son. What if her son doesn't want to become his disciple in the future?
After everyone had dinner together, Youyi didn't see Pei Luo anymore.
"Have you seen your master?" You Yi ran over to ask Su Yun'an.
Su Yun'an was meditating in the room when he heard this, and shook his head: "I didn't see him, Master probably went out for a walk."
"That's possible." Youyi muttered to himself, wondering what his senior brother had eaten that evening. Did he need to go out for a walk to eat?
Bailong Temple.
Even though it was late at night, the chanting of Buddhist scriptures continued in Master Daoyi's room.
Suddenly a figure flashed past in front of his house.
Master Daoyi kept his eyes closed and continued striking the wooden fish, as if he hadn't noticed anything.
The figure that was originally outside had somehow entered the house and chopped down at Master Daoyi's head.
