The other party raised his eyebrows proudly, "Isn't this dress nice? I just stole it."
Gu Lingze looked at it with a more complicated look, and Xu Mingyan frowned beside him.
"What do you mean by that look? It's only been two days, and you don't remember me, do you?"
The weasel knew that the other party could see its true form at a glance, and he didn't understand why Gu Lingze had this expression.
Zhao Chengmo opened the door, turned around and said to the others, "Let's go in first."
As soon as he entered the door, the weasel looked around, and when he saw the teapot on the table, his eyes lit up, and he picked it up and drank from it.
"Hey!" Before Gu Lingze could stop it, the weasel spewed out.
"Pah, pah, pah, what a disgusting thing! You people have such weird tastes."
Gu Lingze curled his lips. That was the overnight tea from the day before yesterday. It would be weird if it wasn’t so unpalatable.
Xu Mingyan was pulled to the bedroom by Zhao Chengmo to explain the whole story. Now they were the only ones in the hall with the weasel.
The weasel scratched its face, jumped onto the chair, squatted on it, picked up the orange on the table and started eating.
"I wanted to eat the sesame cakes I used to love today, but I didn't expect the old man who made the sesame cakes had died. I say, you people..."
"May I ask what brings Senior Huang to my humble home?" Gu Lingze interrupted him.
"Tsk," the weasel threw the orange peel in his hand to the ground, "I will protect you from now on, and you only need to give me a drop of spiritual milk once a month."
Gu Lingze was at a loss for words. Who was protecting whom? If he remembered correctly, the weasel couldn't beat him, right?
Apparently the weasel was a little lacking in confidence, so he cleared his throat and said, "Although I am a little bit inferior to you in a fight, you are better than me in other aspects."
Gu Lingze was trying to hold back his laughter, but when he heard what he said, a sudden inspiration came to his mind and an idea flashed through his mind.
Seeing that he was unmoved, the weasel's shoulders drooped a little.
"Okay, one drop every two months should be ok, right?"
"One year." Gu Lingze bargained without changing his expression.
The weasel immediately gnashed his teeth and said, "Three months."
"Eight months."
"Four months."
"Seven months."
The weasel slammed the table hard, "Half a year."
Gu Lingze snapped his fingers, "Deal."
The weasel sat there angrily. Gu Lingze went over and patted him on the shoulder. "Young man, don't be discouraged. If you do well, you will get a year-end bonus."
The weasel's eyes lit up, "What's a year-end bonus?"
"As for the year-end bonus..." Gu Lingze touched his chin, "it depends on your performance. During the New Year, I will decide whether to give you a few more drops of spiritual milk."
"That's good!" He then snorted, "You know how to respect your elders."
Gu Lingze looked at him inexplicably, "Why did your voice change after you transformed?"
The weasel said with some pride: "That was just to scare you, just pretending."
"You'd better stop considering yourself an elder."
The weasel opened his eyes wide and stood up. "Why?"
Gu Lingze ran up to the other person, measured the top of his head with his hand, and then moved his palm horizontally to the bridge of his nose.
"After you transform, you only look like a teenager of 16 or 17 years old. Do you still want the bearded Minister Cao to call you senior?"
The weasel made a "tsk" sound and said, "You people are troublesome. Forget it, forget it. I won't bark anymore."
Speaking of Minister Cao, Gu Lingze thought of something.
"Minister Cao said that the son must pay the father's debt, and he and his descendants will serve you in the future."
When the Cao family was mentioned, the young man in front of him lost his cheerfulness. After looking at him, he lowered his eyes.
"Let them be."
Gu Lingze also knew his conflicting feelings towards the Cao family, so he changed the subject, "Then you will be my junior apprentice from now on."
The weasel looked at him angrily, "Why is he your junior fellow apprentice instead of your senior brother?"
Gu Lingze took out the jade bottle from his sleeve and shook it. The weasel immediately wilted. "Junior brother is just a junior brother. It's no big deal."
"Did you give yourself a name when you transformed into a human form?"
When asked this, the weasel looked very proud again, "Of course it did, and it sounded very nice."
"What's your name?"
"Huang Shulang."
I say, you monsters are doing this on purpose, right? Gu Lingze was not sure whether to laugh or cry and complained in his heart.
Before came a koi spirit named Li Jin, and now here comes a weasel named Huang Shulang. Are you afraid that others won’t be able to recognize your species?
The weasel raised an eyebrow, "How is it? Doesn't it sound really nice?"
Gu Lingze laughed dryly twice, "As long as you are happy."
At this time, Zhao Chengmo and Xu Mingyan came over.
Zhao Chengmo nodded slightly at him, and Gu Lingze understood what he meant.
He put his arm around Huang Shulang's shoulders and said, "This is Huang Shulang. He will be my junior fellow apprentice from now on. Brother Xu, you must help me keep this secret."
Hearing the name, Zhao Chengmo clenched his fist and put it to his mouth and coughed, while Xu Mingyan pursed his lips.
"It's a good name." Xu Mingyan maintained the last bit of etiquette of a scholar.
Huang Shulang raised his eyebrows proudly at Gu Lingze. Gu Lingze just wanted to say, Shulang, you should be more careful.
As a benefit for new employees, Gu Lingze cooked fried chicken and vegetable soup at noon.
Huang Shulang touched his round belly and looked at the warm sunlight in the yard. "Can I change back to my original form and take a nap in the yard?"
When Gu Lingze heard this request, he immediately made three rules with him, the first of which was that he could not change back to his original form easily.
Huang Shulang made a "tsk" sound and said reluctantly, "I understand."
"Cheng Mo, can you give a message to the eldest prince?"
After Gu Lingze finished speaking, Zhao Chengmo set off.
He picked up Huang Shulang who was dozing off beside him and said, "You are a guard who is lazy here after eating your fill. Come with me now."
The two came to a restaurant and went up to the private room on the second floor.
Gu Lingze opened the window, pointed to the north courtyard and said to Huang Shulang, "Go in here and help me teach a man named Qin Zhantian a lesson. Stay hidden so that no one can find you."
This house was where Qin Zhantian lived after he moved out of Siyi Pavilion. It had been empty before.
Huang Shulang rubbed his hands with interest, "Just teach him a lesson?"
Gu Lingze's eyes flashed with a cold and sharp light, "Don't be too harsh, just don't let him have an easy time."
If possible, he would also like to beat Qin Zhantian up with his own hands, but he couldn't do that.
Huang Shulang rolled his eyes and said, "Tsk, let me show you what I can do."
"Cheng Mo and I are not at home these two days. If you have anything, just tell Brother Xu."
Huang Shulang waved his hands impatiently, "Stop talking so much, just go away."
When Gu Lingze arrived home, Zhao Chengmo had already returned from the eldest prince.
The other party glanced behind him and asked, "Where's Huang Shulang?"
