Chapter 127 Old Man
Feng Lan suddenly became very idle and had a lot of free time. She stayed at home every day to tidy up things and had nothing to do.
"Mom, you guys aren't going to eat the chicken anyway, so I'll take it." Erya said as she was about to pack it up and put it in her cloth bag.
She felt a little sneaky in her heart, and silently put the thing in her pocket and patted it twice.
Hearing this, Feng Lan's eyes showed a hint of surprise, and she subconsciously asked a question.
"Can you finish such a big chicken by yourself?"
Her living conditions are better now, but she doesn't waste money and basically spends only as much as she eats.
When Erya heard this, her body stiffened slightly, but she quickly returned to her normal state and nodded.
"I'm sure I can finish it, otherwise how could I take it away? No more, I'm in a hurry, so I'll leave first."
After she finished speaking, she left in a hurry. Feng Lan stood behind her with a puzzled look on her face, but did not ask any reason.
Erya went all the way back to the restaurant and got a pot of wine. She carried the things in the cloth bag and walked around in circles until she came to a dilapidated house.
She stayed in there for half a day before coming out. This had been going on for several days. Feng Lan felt increasingly strange and followed her secretly.
"Master, please accept me. I am very diligent." Erya's voice came from inside.
Feng Lan stood at the door and looked at the situation inside, her eyes narrowed into slits, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
A ragged old man was staggering on a chair, drinking and eating meat, and his tone of response was filled with a hint of disgust.
"What's the point of you being diligent? I don't want a diligent girl, so you'd better leave quickly."
Although he said this, his hands never stopped moving and his mouth was full of oil while eating.
Feng Lan found it very irritating, her eyebrows narrowed, and a hint of coldness flowed into her eyes.
"At least someone makes your life better." Erya packed up her things indifferently and took out all the old man's clothes and put them in the bucket.
Seeing this, the old man was used to it and didn't object. He just watched her do it and shook his head slightly.
Erya was not discouraged at all. She packed up her things and cleaned the house, making everything spotless.
"Master, I have already cleaned up this place for you. Please accept me as your disciple, okay?" Erya spoke.
The old man's brows were furrowed into a shape of a "川" (川) and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in his words, and his tone was full of disgust.
"Forget it, you're too stupid and have no natural talent. You won't learn anything by staying with me."
When he thought about having a relationship with such a girl, he felt unhappy and subconsciously refused, drinking the wine in his hand.
Upon hearing this, the expression on Erya's face instantly became a little ugly. She didn't know what to say for a moment and stood aside feeling very depressed.
"My situation is a bit special, but I will work very hard. Although I don't have any talent, as long as you are willing to teach me, I will definitely learn seriously."
She has always been very hardworking, but unfortunately her brain isn't quick enough. Fortunately, she is very obedient.
When the old man heard this, he was still a little dissatisfied. He just shook his head and revealed a hint of helplessness in his words.
"Just give up on this idea. There's absolutely no way I'll accept you. Leave now!"
He felt at ease eating these things and enjoying Arya's kindness, but he had no intention of giving in.
Erya suddenly didn't know what to say. She stood there with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
"Is there really no way to keep him?" Her heart was filled with turmoil and she couldn't help but let out a breath.
The old man looked disgusted and didn't want to pay any attention to her. He glared at her and then started talking loudly.
"Why are you so persistent? I've told you many times that you're not suitable at all. You're not within my range of choices. It's not possible!"
He has his own standards for accepting disciples. There is no point in accepting people like this, so it is better to forget about them. His standards are very strict.
Erya was very disappointed and stood there not knowing what to do. Everything had already been cleaned up.
"Then I'll come back tomorrow. What do you want to eat? Or the same as today?"
She is like an indestructible cockroach all day long. No matter what happens, she will respond and come back again tomorrow.
When the old man heard this, his face suddenly turned gloomy. He put down the chicken and wine in his hands and wiped his clothes casually with his hands.
"I don't want anything. Just don't disturb my life in the future. I can eat well without you." He said indifferently.
Erya felt even more upset, lowering her head and not knowing what to say. Suddenly, a voice interrupted the atmosphere between the two of them.
"If you don't want it, forget it. My child is so outstanding, he doesn't necessarily have to have you as his teacher!" Feng Lan came in at the door with a look of heartache on her face.
Hearing this, the old man heard the noise, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and without much warmth in his eyes, he said directly.
"Okay, okay, please take your daughter away right away. She stays here all day and won't leave no matter how hard I try. I'm already fed up with her."
Don't be fooled by the dirty and messy appearance of this place. You can smell a faint herbal scent in many things.
Erya was a little surprised. She looked at Feng Lan silently, then quickly walked over and said something.
"Mom, why are you here?"
She was extremely frightened and didn't know whether she should speak. She just stood there silently, feeling a little uncomfortable.
The old man's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at the mother and daughter silently. He turned over and looked indifferent.
"If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have known that you were still suffering here. Come with me now." Feng Lan cursed angrily.
Upon hearing this, Erya immediately shut her mouth, not knowing how to refute, and just glanced at the old man.
"I……"
"Okay, okay, just listen to your mother and leave quickly. Don't disturb my life here!" The old man said disdainfully.
Feng Lan became even angrier. She looked at the old man with such anger that her hands were shaking slightly. She gritted her teeth and finally left.
"Go, don't waste your time on this kind of person!"
The thought of the child she held in her hands being treated like this made her feel uncomfortable. Erya couldn't refuse, so she could only follow and secretly observe Feng Lan's face.
