Chapter 372 Becoming a Master



There were three rooms. Originally, the son had one room, the daughter had one room, and the couple had one room. However, the children were too young, so they lived in one room so they could keep each other company. The extra room was used as a study.

When Mu Chenggong married Ye Jiang, Ye Jiang did not want to live in the room he had shared with his ex-wife. Mu Chenggong felt this was understandable, so he changed the original children's room into their wedding room, while leaving the original main room unchanged.

After getting married, Ye Jiang never went into that room.

Mu Chenggong left many of his personal belongings in the original main room.

He didn't knock on Ye Jiang's door this time, but went straight to the main room.

I changed my clothes and took my two children out.

Ye Jiang kept listening to the sounds outside the door until the three men left and slammed the door shut. Ye Jiang was stunned.

Shouldn't Mu Chenggong have come to her room to comfort her?

Ye Jiang couldn't believe it. When she was dating Ouyang Changshan, he would always coax her whenever she was unhappy. Why was it different with Mu Chenggong?

Ye Jiang, feeling annoyed, ran to the window and looked down. She saw the father and his two children chatting and laughing happily as they walked towards where the bicycles were parked. Then Mu Chenggong rode the bicycle, his son sat on the front bar, and his daughter sat on the back of the bicycle, hugging Mu Chenggong's waist. The three of them disappeared from her sight.

Ye Jiang was furious!

But seeing Mu Chenggong's attitude, she dared not damage anything in the house.

Ye Jiang was confused!

Why did she marry this older, divorced man?

Xu Xinning was unaware of Ye Jiang's situation, and even if she knew, she wouldn't care; she never paid attention to unimportant people.

After a period of recuperation, the Lü family's daughter is in great health.

Mu Jingheng suddenly became busy again. The domestic and international medical exchange conference was coming up soon. Considering Xu Xinning's situation, Du Zhong told her to rest at home for a few days.

Du Changpu and Ouyang Changshan also returned from the earthquake zone.

When Xu Xinning saw them again, she almost didn't recognize them.

He used to be fair-skinned and clean-cut, but now he's dark and thin, with dark circles under his eyes that are almost as prominent as a panda's. He looks completely different from before.

Xu Xinning knew how difficult things were in the earthquake zone, and that it must have been really tough for the two of them to be there for so long, but seeing the two of them like this, she really wanted to laugh, what should she do?

Although Du Changpu and Xu Xinning are master and apprentice, he is very comfortable in front of her and often relaxes himself, which is in stark contrast to Ouyang Changshan's always upright attitude.

Du Changpu leaned back on the sofa without any regard for her image, muttering, "Just laugh if you want to, be careful not to hurt my junior brothers and sisters."

Du Changpu knew his current state. When he returned home, his brothers and sisters burst into laughter.

What are you laughing at?

It's just uneven tanning, isn't it?

But he wears a mask all the time, so isn't it normal for it to be uneven?

Oh! He also wears glasses.

They were fighting in the earthquake zone and had no time to groom themselves, let alone look in the mirror. However, he found Ouyang Changshan quite amusing. Not only was his skin tone uneven, but his face and body were also peeling from sunburn.

He also secretly laughed at Ouyang Changshan.

It seems like what goes around comes around; he's been laughed at for days now.

Ouyang Changshan looked at Xu Xinning with a strange expression and swallowed back what he wanted to say.

Qin Yao and Kuang Meizhu returned from outside hand in hand. When they saw Du Changpu and Ouyang Changshan, they didn't recognize them at first. But when they got closer and realized it was the two of them, they couldn't help but burst into laughter. They pointed at the two of them and said with a laugh, "You, you guys... Hahaha, how did you become... Hahaha... This is too funny, how did you become like this?"

Xu Xinning's funny bone seemed to have been activated, and she also clutched her stomach and laughed heartily.

Kwong Mei-chu laughed along, and the auntie who came out of the kitchen also laughed non-stop.

Du Changpu and Ouyang Changshan couldn't help but laugh along with them.

Laughter, like undulating waves or splashing water on the shore, sometimes smooth and sometimes violent, spilled out from the Mu family and spread joy to passersby.

Out of curiosity, passersby would always crane their necks to peer into the Mu family's house, eager to know what they were laughing about.

Ouyang Changshan also brought news with him this time, which was about Ye Jiang.

Ouyang Changshan recounted what Ye Jiang had done, as well as how Mu Chenggong and the middle-aged man at Bright Peak had handled the matter.

Ouyang Changshan apologized, "Teacher Xu, I'm sorry! I really didn't expect her to be this kind of person."

Xu Xinning sighed: "Although this matter was started by you, the process has nothing to do with you. How can you say you owe us anything?"

Ouyang Changshan said embarrassedly, "If I hadn't had such poor judgment, I wouldn't have gotten involved with someone like that."

Xu Xinning: "Mu Chenggong is quite surprising. It seems that every time you get to know him better, you discover a different side of him."

Ouyang Changshan: "When he was young, he was a passionate and spirited young man. However, his wife's situation had a huge impact on him. But perhaps it was just a way to protect himself and his child. He was still devout in his attitude towards medicine."

Xu Xinning: "Even when you're not around, he's always by my side. Aren't you afraid he'll replace you?"

Du Changpu: "You are our master, you can't confuse the inside with the outside."

Xu Xinning suddenly felt like teasing them, "I didn't drink your apprenticeship tea, so what do you mean by 'inside' and 'outside'?"

Suddenly, with a thud, Du Changpu knelt down in front of Xu Xinning, holding a cup of water in her hand. She solemnly held it above her head and said, "Master, please have some tea."

Seeing this, Ouyang Changshan did not back down and knelt down beside Du Changpu with a cup of tea in hand.

Xu Xinning was stunned for a second, then thought, "Why not just do it? I already promised the elders of both families. I'll have to drink this cup of tea with my master sooner or later. Since the atmosphere has been set up this way, it's not unreasonable to drink it now."

But looking at these two now, it feels like they're getting married and serving tea to their parents.

Xu Xinning drifted off into her own thoughts again. She knew she shouldn't, but she just couldn't help it.

Upon seeing this, the aunt readily brought over a chair for Xu Xinning to sit down.

This looks more like a newlywed couple serving tea to their parents. (?′?`?)

After sitting down, Xu Xinning took the tea from the two people and drank it.

Seeing that Xu Xinning had drunk her tea, Ouyang Changshan said apologetically, "Master, things happened so suddenly today that I didn't give you a red envelope. I'll definitely make it up to you later."

Actually, it's not always necessary to give a red envelope when becoming an apprentice. In ancient times, the master might give a token to prove that the disciple is a member of the sect.

Later, as times changed, apprentices began to give red envelopes to their masters as a sign of respect.

Both the Ouyang and Du families have disciples, so they would have a better understanding of the situation.
