Upon hearing that Jiang Hua was learning to make shoes and clothes from Aunt Lin, Old Man Jiang didn't say much.
In addition, after Zhao Genlin came to our house, he worked hard and didn't talk much.
He nodded secretly when he saw this, and then when others asked him to do carpentry, he would call Zhao Genlin over to help.
Normally, this kind of work would have to wait at least three years.
After all, when you come to apprentice and learn a skill, all you get is a bag of coarse grains, nothing else.
In normal families, the apprentice would work at home for three whole years. This is usually because the master smooths out the apprentice's rough edges and temper.
After all, people who do this kind of craft work need to have a good temper first and foremost.
Otherwise, offending the customers would be like throwing away your own livelihood.
Although Zhao Genlin had only been there for a few days, Jiang Laojiu saw that his granddaughter always returned happily from Aunt Lin's house, which proved that Aunt Lin had no secrets.
So, it's a give-and-take situation; since the other person's grandson is learning from him, he won't do the kind of thing that cheats people out of their money.
Given the current situation, it's good to learn it sooner and graduate as soon as possible.
However, he called Zhao Genlin over to help out, because if Zhao didn't have the aptitude for carpentry, even if he taught him, it would be useless.
Although Zhao Genlin was honest and didn't like to talk, he wasn't stupid.
When his master asked him to help, he listened intently to every word his master said.
Then I carefully observed my master's every move while he was working, afraid that I might accidentally miss a step.
After half a month, he was able to help with some heavy work.
However, accuracy and some techniques still require careful study and practice.
As the saying goes, "The master leads you through the door, but the practice is up to you."
He asked his master about some things he didn't understand, and his master explained them. How he interpreted them was up to him.
Ning Jing only learned about Zhao Genlin's carpentry training half a month later, when Zhao Genlin returned home, from Wang Guihua's words.
She thought for a moment, then took a bag she had sewn herself, filled it with ten pounds of flour, and delivered it to the Zhao family.
Although Ning Jing didn't know what it took to become an apprentice, the Dragon Boat Festival was just over a month away, and Gen Lin had to send something as a festival gift.
When Wang Guihua saw the bag of flour that Ning Jing had personally brought, tears immediately streamed down her face.
Hearing Genlin say that his master taught him real skills as soon as he arrived, he was happy but also very worried.
The gifts given when becoming an apprentice weren't very good. Now that Master Jiang is teaching the children so sincerely, it would be really unreasonable not to give them gifts during the holidays.
But given their current situation, where could they possibly offer any decent gifts for the holidays?
The bag of flour that Ning Jing sent was a timely help.
This is something that you can't necessarily buy even with money.
This flour is snow-white and fine, several times better than any high-gluten flour.
It wasn't just Wang Guihua who was thinking about getting gifts for Genlin; Zhao Dazhu was too.
After walking around the rice paddy and seeing that the water hadn't leaked out, Zhao Dazhu was about to go home.
Unexpectedly, on his way back, he saw a gray rabbit dart past him.
His hands and feet worked faster than his brain. He swung the hoe he was carrying down and hit the gray rabbit squarely on the forehead.
However, the gray rabbit was fast, and although it veered slightly to the side, it still couldn't completely avoid the attack.
He was knocked unconscious and fell to the ground. Zhao Dazhu quickly stepped forward and saw that the gray rabbit only had a small cut on its ear, but was otherwise unharmed.
