Chapter 154: Opening Disciple



Chapter 154: The Open-Door Disciple

Qin Wang Zhao Defang hid in the renovated construction space, listening attentively to the movements in the room with bated breath.

: "Ruhua is busy with business matters, Yingchun, Wu Meizhu will be handed over to the four of you in charge.

Lock her up in the yard next to Ning Xinyuan and don't let her step out of the yard.

But you four have to serve her well, just... treat her according to the standards of a distinguished guest!

Don't let her suffer in terms of food, clothing and other expenses. Except for not allowing her to contact outsiders, try to meet her requirements in other matters."

Yingchun agreed, but said worriedly, "Princess, even if you don't take all of us with you, you should still take Miss Tingting with you! Let her cook for you and take care of you at any time."

: "Yes! Miss, you should take Tingting with you! Otherwise, she will definitely cry secretly." Ruhua also persuaded the lady.

: "I am going to travel and enjoy life. There are many delicacies from all over the world waiting for me to taste on the way.

There are too many things to do in the capital, so Tingting will stay and help Luo Ning manage the business of the hot pot city and the wine shop.

With Honggu, Siyu and Yuli, can't they take care of me?"

The King of Qin in the tunnel thought to himself, "I am still worried that the princess will not be wary of Wu Meizhu, it seems that there is no need to be so!

My princess appears to be silly and stupid on the outside, but she is cunning and calculating on the inside.

Not only did she detain Wu Meizhu by her side with a contract of sale, but she was also very careful about her defenses. ]

: "Ruhua, after you finish making Kou Zhun your apprentice, you and I will go to Heshenglou to complete the acquisition of the paper mill in the west of the city, lest we waste our time and energy on losing the fat chicken we have got!"

: "Miss, doesn't the second young master think that the other party's price is too high? Why don't we not delay for a few more days and lower the price?"

Luo Li mischievously splashed a stream of water onto the curtain opposite and watched the water droplets slowly drip along the light blue curtain.

"Ruhua, remember one thing, time is money!

To do big things and make big money, you must not care about small profits and make decisions decisively. Don't be like my second brother who dithers for a few thousand taels of silver.

The sooner this papermaking workshop develops sanitary paper to promote and sell it, the silver it earns a day will be more than a thousand taels!"

Yingchun asked happily, "Princess, does sanitary paper make money so much?"

Luo Li playfully flicked the water droplets on her fingers towards Yingchun's pretty face, and said confidently, "A thousand taels of silver a day is my most conservative estimate! When you use sanitary paper to wipe your butt after taking a shit, you will know its magical attraction."

Ruhua spit at the young lady with a reproachful sound!

: "Miss, you can make it sound vulgar and

unbearable!" Luo Li smiled and corrected herself.

"Going to the toilet! Going to the toilet! Going to the toilet is a thousand times more elegant than taking a shit. The shit you take out may be fragrant."

Ruhua and Yingchun were amused and laughed. ...

Kou Zhun had memorized the six gifts early in the morning. Celery, lotus seeds, red beans, red dates, longans and ten pieces of lean dried meat.

Dressed neatly, he was excitedly waiting for Brother Luo to arrive at the door.

Luo Li, dressed in men's clothes, brought Hong Gu and Yu Li, and rode to the door of Kou Zhun's house.

Kou Zhun and Kou An, the master and servant waiting at the door, hurried forward to greet them.

Luo Li waved his hands on the horse, "Brother Kou, let's not waste time on the ceremony. My father is waiting at home. Let's set off quickly!"

Knowing the carefree and unrestrained nature of Mr. Luo, Kou Zhun agreed without any hesitation, and rode the donkey carrying the gifts to follow Mr. Luo.

Luo Li glanced sideways at Kou Zhun's donkey, and asked Hong Gu, who was pretending to be a long-term servant beside him, "Uncle Hong, can you ask Mo Wen for a horse for Mr. Kou to ride?

It's not a good match for this young talent to ride a stupid donkey. He also looks as stupid as the stupid donkey."

Kou Zhun quickly declined, "Brother Luo, I'm just a scholar in white clothes. I only need a donkey to ride. After I pass the imperial examination, I will naturally be able to ride a donkey. I will change to a tall and handsome horse."

Luo Li glanced at him with dissatisfaction: "Why? I gave you a horse and you still refuse it. Do you want to distance yourself from me after you become a Jinshi?"

Kou Zhun had no choice but to bow on the donkey's back and said, "Brother Luo must give me a horse, and I am sorry to be disrespectful to Old Kou. Then let someone send it to me as soon as possible, so that I can ride a tall and handsome horse to show off."

"That's right! We are brothers and have a deep relationship, so don't be polite to each other. Just accept whatever I give you.

When I ask you for something in the future, you can also ask without hesitation, right? You can't find an excuse to refuse, right?"

[When I need you in the future, you should think about my investment in you with a clear conscience. 】

Moved by the brotherhood, Kou Zhun generously promised, "Brother Luo, just speak up when the time comes. If I say no, I'm not worthy of being a human being!"... There was

a large flow of people on the main street, and the government had ordered not to ride horses at full speed, so they could only walk slowly, passing through a busy commercial street, and taking a shortcut through several streets and alleys, and arrived at the gate of Luo's mansion.

Today is a day off, and the father and son of the Luo family are at home. Luo Wen'an is already waiting in front of the Luo's mansion.

Seeing that his younger sister was dressed in men's clothes, Luo Wen'an, who had been trained many times, stepped forward and said with a smile, "Second brother, this is Mr. Kou, right? Father is waiting at home!"

Luo Li, who jumped off the horse, winked at her eldest brother proudly!

"Brother, this is Mr. Kou. What do you think? He is a talented young man, right?"

Kou Zhun, who jumped off the donkey, stepped forward to greet him, "Little Kou Zhun has met the eldest son."

Luo Wen'an was a little curious about the disciple that his younger sister had found for his father. He looked up and down at the handsome Kou Zhun, and said gently after returning the greeting, "Brother Kou, don't be polite. We are family from now on. Brothers, we are as close as brothers!"

Luo Ji and his wife sat steadily on the armchair and received Kou Zhun's three kowtows to pay homage to his teacher and his wife.

Luo Ji received the letter of acquaintance, and after six gifts and tuition, he handed Kou Zhun a copy of the Analects, green onions, celery and other gifts.

He took the fragrant tea offered by Kou Zhun and took a sip.

"Kou Zhun, I don't like the officials forming cliques and factions, and I have never accepted any students. You will be my first disciple, and you will also be my last disciple!"

So there are no rules of the master's sect to tell you. You just need to abide by the etiquette and work hard.

If you become an official in the future, think more about your fellow villagers and old friends when you were in obscurity, put yourself in their shoes and think more about the hardships of ordinary people in the Song Dynasty. It would be good to be an official who is upright, honest, not greedy, arrogant, or impetuous, and has a good conscience. "

Kou Zhun said respectfully, "I have learned from you, and I will keep your teachings in mind!"

[It's done! From now on, this high-ranking official with great power in the Song Dynasty will be a member of my Luo family faction!]

Luo Limei's heart was filled with joy!

"Dad! Mom! Big brother! Little...brother, what are you doing?

Didn't Dad never accept disciples? Why did you set up a ceremony of apprenticeship? "Luo Wenhao yelled as he rushed in.

Luo Ji glared at his useless and unruly son!

"Father admires Kou Zhun's character and talent, so I made an exception and accepted him as a student. Why don't you come over and greet him."

After hearing this, Luo Wenhao walked up to Kou Zhun and patted his shoulder, "Your name is Kou Zhun? From now on, we are brothers, you can just call me second brother. "

Kou Zhun looked at the second brother who suddenly appeared with a confused look on his face. He

wondered in confusion, aren't there only two young masters in the Luo family? The master called himself father in front of him, and he asked me to call him the second brother. What is the identity of this person?

Luo Li was anxious!

[Luo Wanku, you came here at this time, why didn't you come earlier or later? I abducted Kou Zhun by pretending to be you, Luo Wenhao, so don't ruin my good deeds.]

Luo Li hurriedly stepped forward and pushed the second brother away, and introduced with a wry smile, "Brother Kou, this person is... an illegitimate child born by my father outside...ah...no! This person is the adopted son my father adopted outside! Yes!

Adopted son. Foster son, not a biological one, but a foster one.

His name is Luo Er, you can just call him the second brother! "

Luo Wenhao was almost driven crazy by his sister's words!

[I haven't been home for a few days, how did I become dad's adopted son? I almost became dad's illegitimate child outside?

Every time you disguised yourself as a man and did bad things outside in the past year, you were impersonating me. I was beaten and scolded by my father and mother. Isn't it bad enough that you have harmed me?

Now you have even deprived me of my identity as a biological son!

My father, mother and eldest brother blushed and didn't say a word to clear my name. Is there any justice in this Luo family?!]

Kou Zhun was confused, but he couldn't lose his manners. No matter whether he was the master's illegitimate son or adopted son, he just called him second brother. He bowed to Luo Er, "Kou Zhun has met second brother! "

Luo Wenhao was so angry that he was going crazy, but he knew he couldn't afford to offend this sister who had the final say at home and was willful and capricious. He had to bow in anger and return the greeting, glared at the little sister beside him, turned around and ran out to find a corner to be sad. Mrs.

Luo was conquered by the outstanding on-site performance of her precious daughter and secretly admired her wit. Her face turned red from trying to hold back her laughter. She covered her face with her sleeves, and couldn't cover up her laughter even after coughing repeatedly!

"Ahem...hahaha...ahem...hahaha..."

Luo, who almost had an illegitimate child and whose reputation was ruined, was trying to hold back his laughter with a hint of shame, but he couldn't bear to blame his precious daughter. In his heart, he cursed his second son for coming back at the wrong time, saying that he was a guy who could do nothing but cause trouble. He stroked his beard in embarrassment.

Luo Wen'an couldn't control his laughter any more, and hurriedly She turned around and went out to talk to her second brother and enlighten him.

Luo Li felt a little guilty about her quick thinking. She found a topic to talk about in order to divert Kou Zhun's attention. It also helped her father, who was known for his integrity and uprightness, to ease the embarrassment of having an illegitimate child.
