Chapter 282 The Best Apprenticeship Gift
Seeing her stubborn expression, Yun Erlang became anxious: "You said you want to learn embroidery and not study anymore?"
"……read."
Yunhua responded, but she didn't feel confident.
If I decide to learn embroidery from Grandma Yu, I will definitely not be able to go to the academy, just like my second brother went to Tiger Tooth Mountain to learn martial arts from his master.
At this time, Baoya said, "Third sister, even if you don't go to the academy, you must study. You can't be illiterate, and you can't be without knowledge."
"Yeah." Yunhua nodded. She was not Yun Chenglu, so she understood this.
"Hua Ya, tell grandma why you suddenly want to learn embroidery from Grandma Yu?" Zhao Zhilan suddenly said.
Yunhua kept her head down, not daring to look at Yun Erlang and Li Rongyue. Only when she heard Zhao Zhilan calling her did she slowly raise her head.
When she looked up, she found that the whole family was looking at her.
But there was no criticism or complaint. Everyone was waiting for her answer and explanation with great anticipation.
"I...actually, I didn't suddenly want to learn it."
Yunhua spoke, pursing her lips nervously: "Grandma, Dad, Mom, ever since Grandma Yu gave Yueya, Baoya, and me embroidered handkerchiefs, I...I've wanted to learn."
"But at that time, Grandma Yu didn't say she wanted to take in an apprentice. Grandma's skills were so good, I didn't dare ask her to teach me. What if it was Grandma's unique skill?"
"But a few days ago, my mother-in-law said she wanted to take in an apprentice..."
"So you've been thinking about it, right?" Zhao Zhilan said in a gentle voice.
Yunhua nodded, as if she remembered something, and quickly said, "Grandma, it's not that I don't want to study! But this opportunity is rare, I... don't want to miss it."
Zhao Zhilan nodded, looked at Yun Erlang, who was frowning beside her, and said angrily, "Second Brother, listen to this!"
Yun Erlang also knew that he had wronged Yun Hua and scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "Well, I didn't... I got anxious when I heard she said she didn't want to study!"
"But even if we let Hua Ya go to study, what about the academy?"
Li Rongyue held her waist and looked at Zhao Zhilan: "Mom, Baoya is right. Even if Huaya goes to learn embroidery, she can't fall behind in studying and learning to read."
"Second aunt, how about we go and ask eldest brother and Mr. Xiao Qi tomorrow?" Bao Ya said from the side.
"Big brother is smart, and Mr. Xiao Qi is generous. They will definitely understand Third Sister and help her come up with a good solution."
Based on the principle that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, Yun Yue has liked Mr. Qi even more since Qi Mo drove Xu Jiaojiao away.
When Baoya mentioned that she would ask Mr. Xiaoqi for his opinion tomorrow, I almost agreed with both hands and feet.
"I also think we should ask Mr. Xiao Qi! He's different from the average old-fashioned person, maybe he can come up with a better solution!"
"Okay," Zhao Zhilan thought that what Baoya and Yunyue said was a good idea. "Then when you three go to school tomorrow, you can ask them."
"But, if Mr. Qi is unhappy, you must talk to him nicely. Don't be stubborn and offend him."
"I know!" the three little girls answered together.
Yunhua slept very soundly that night.
Just before tonight, she had prepared herself for a severe scolding from her parents, but to her surprise, not only did no one at home scold her, but everyone was actually thinking about her.
Even if Dad got angry with her at first, it was because he didn't understand why she suddenly didn't want to study. After all, it was for her own good.
This was the first time in her life that she had decided something on her own, and it was a big deal.
Moreover, she succeeded and no one in the family objected.
Yunhua hugged her quilt tightly in her sleep and laughed out loud in her dream.
Baoya slept soundly that night. Not only did she sleep soundly, she also had a dream which she hadn't had in a long time.
In the familiar darkness, a huge strange bird broke through the darkness and flew towards her.
The bird looks a bit like a pheasant, and its outstretched tail looks like a banana fan.
But the way it flies is very strange. It does not fly with its two feathers, but with the whiskers under its throat.
Baoya stared at it intently, watching it slowly fall in front of her.
"Danghu." She said the name of the strange bird very accurately.
Danghu held its head high and chirped once, as if responding to her, then bent its neck and put its beak in front of Baoya.
Baoya understood and stretched out her two little hands, palms facing up.
When Hu opened his mouth, a small piece of soft black thing fell into Baoya's little palm.
She stared at the object, her eyes suddenly lit up: "Thank you!"
Danghu shook his head, the hair under his throat flickered, and flew away.
It was getting light outside, and the little girl lying on the bed blinked her eyelashes and then opened her eyes.
She sat up and spread out her clenched hands. A small black object lay quietly in the palm of her hand.
"That's great." She jumped out of bed, took out a plain white handkerchief, and wrapped the small black block in it.
"Now Third Sister has a gift for becoming a disciple, the best gift for becoming a disciple!"
Danghu looks like a pheasant. When it flies and swallows, its feathers and tail are like banana leaves. It will not blink when people eat it.
Because of this dream, Baoya seemed particularly happy when she went up the mountain to practice martial arts today.
Jingzhen met her at the foot of the mountain. Seeing her rosy little face with a smile on its face, he asked, "Are you so happy?"
Baoya nodded: "Brother Xiaojing, Third Sister has also found something she likes!"
"oh?"
"My second brother likes to learn martial arts, I like to cook, and my third sister likes to embroider patterns!" Baoya explained when she saw that he didn't understand.
Seeing her happy look, Jing Zhen reached out and pinched the small hair on her head, and said with a slight smile: "This is a good thing."
"Yeah! I think it's a good thing too!"
The two of them walked through the peach blossom forest, and Baoya was still happily saying, "Third sister has such a soft personality. She seems to follow everyone's opinions on everything. I don't even know what she likes."
"But she actually told grandma last night..."
She suddenly stopped mid-sentence.
Jingzhen raised his eyebrows and followed her gaze towards the bamboo-fenced courtyard.
Then I saw Yun Chenglu being beaten.
Nan Xuan sat at the stone table, holding his wine gourd and enjoying the food with great interest while sipping a sip from a plate of fried peanuts on the table.
The man who beat Yun Chenglu was a young man in black shorts. He attacked fiercely and quickly.
Just after the man punched Yun Chenglu hard on the left cheek, he suddenly shook his head to avoid Yun Chenglu's attack.
Baoya saw his face.
It was actually someone she knew!
It was the person she had met here last time, just before the Chinese New Year. His name seemed to be... Ling An!
“Master!”
Seeing Yun Chenglu's face bruised and swollen from being beaten, Baoya felt distressed and said to Nanxuan, "He's beating my second brother, why don't you do anything?"
Nan Xuan leaned lazily against the stone table and threw a peanut into his mouth.
Then he said, "What do you know, little girl? Do you understand actual combat training?"
