Chapter 104 Kiryu Apprenticeship
Zhou Bingshu is a poor student from Nanxun Caotang.
At that time, the Master of Caotang suggested that he go to Huajian Bookstore to communicate with other scholars and students. The Bookstore held school meetings or policy gatherings in the first few months of the State Examination to hear that it would be helpful for him to participate in the imperial examination.
He is good at doing good, constantly absorbing information like a sponge every day. When the learning is over, he will organize the knowledge and eliminate irrelevant and useless information.
He found out that he had started the noodles with green onion. It was cheap and big bowls. It tasted good and would not bring too much burden to him. Later, when his classmates saw him, they vaguely heard them laughing at the country bumpkins for their stinky smell. Only those who were so poor that they ate the noodles with green onion every day.
Scholars and students are also divided into different levels.
After stepping out of Nanxun’s Thatched Cottage, I felt that after staying in heaven for a long time, I forgot that the malice in the world is everywhere.
Since that time, Zhou Bingshu and the people in the book club have staggered meal times. He brought steamed buns and pickles with two cents a bowl of white porridge. He studied harder. He was in a state of anger. He waited for him to pass the exam and waited for him to make a comeback...
"Brother, brother?" The shouts of the Zhou sister made him come to his senses. He looked around and remembered that he had taken her sister through Taixu Temple and came to Wenfang Street at the back door, not Huajian Bookstore: "What's wrong?"
"Sweet cake, it's sweet cake, brother, I want to eat sweet cake... delicious." The little girl of the Zhou family pointed to the store not far away, with crystal saliva flowing from her mouth, and looked at Zhou Bingshu with her eyes.
this--
Zhou Bingshu showed a embarrassed look and pinched the money bag around his waist. He didn't have much money. He planned to buy some rice paper and pen and ink on Wenfang Street. But looking at his younger sister's longing eyes, he went to Taixuguan to set up a stall and wrote a letter to others to earn money back.
"Okay, let's have sweet cakes."
After entering the sweet cake shop, Kiryu came up to bring the person to his seat and introduced his own food: "I guess they were a little hungry at this time, right? The shop often serves rice today, with green onion noodles and soup buns, and special crystal shrimp cakes. One porridge a day is porridge." Seeing that Zhou Bingshu's expression was slightly wrong when he heard the green onion noodles, he added: "In addition to the soup, he also provides mint green orange tea for free, so you don't have to worry about having any odor left in his mouth after eating it."
"I want to eat Bozi cake." said the young girl from the Zhou family.
Kiryu was a little surprised. His boss's daily life - Taixuguan Hawking, finally achieved results? "Yes, what kind of pot cake do you want to eat? We have red beans, mung beans, mixed beans, and two-color pot cake."
The little sister of the Zhou family was drooling. "I want two-colored ones! I also want red beans!" She looked at Zhou Bingshu again.
After reading the water card, Zhou Bingshu knew the price and it was not particularly expensive. He said, "Then let's just mix the noodles with green onion, a portion of porridge, and one of the two-color and red bean bowl cakes."
"Okay." After Kiryu shouted, Zhou Bingshu asked him what was inside the porridge. How did this name come from? "It was the first time I heard that the name of this porridge was named by our boss."
As soon as he finished speaking, A Yao brought Jidi porridge, boiled green onion noodles and bowl of cake from the kitchen. Hearing this, he explained: "It contains slices of meat, pork liver and powdered intestines. It's not good to cry in the water, so it turns into Jidi. If someone eats Jidi porridge, in the future, wouldn't this name be confirmed in high school? Hey, Senior Brother Zhou?"
"Do you recognize me?" Zhou Bingshu hesitated and looked at A Yao repeatedly, but he really didn't have the impression of this girl in his mind.
"Well, I met you when I was studying in Caotang. I still learned your name from Yingniang." A Yao explained, putting the food in front of them.
The little sister of the Zhou family couldn't wait to reach out her hand and pick up the bamboo stick, turn the bowl cake, exclaimed and was stunned.
Zhou Bingshu also remembered that the Master once mentioned that a student in Jucaotang opened a pastry shop near Wenfang Street. The price was affordable and he could eat there. He was full of Huajian Bookstore at that time and did not listen to the following words. "So that's the case. The Master also mentioned it to me, but his studies were heavy, and he always forgot about this when he went to the Bookstore."
A Yao couldn't sit for long and went back to the kitchen to practice spoons. Even if she came out to open a store, the homework assigned by Wangyue would still be completed.
Zhou Bingshu has been brought to eat sweet cakes by his younger sister and has become a regular customer.
After dinner, Kiryu always asked him for a word and asked him what the word meant. Zhou Bingshu didn't mind explaining it to him, as a review of the past and learn about the new.
Finally, after another meal, Zhou Bingshu used to writing words in tea on the table, waiting for the studious Kiryu to ask. Unexpectedly, he saw Kiryu holding a bacon and a dou of rice noodles wrapped in red paper, and a wallet was placed on it.
Zhou Bingshu was so scared that he jumped up: "What are you doing?"
"Mr. Please accept me as a student. Don't bother me. I just need to teach me one or two words after dinner. I don't have much money, but I prepare a gift for the meal during the holidays. I don't know if the teacher is willing?" Kiryu said sincerely, "If Mr. Don't want to, these are my apology gifts. I disturb my review these days. If it affects my participation in the scientific examination, it's really my fault."
When A Yao heard the movement outside, she sighed that Kiryu was really a talented person.
I have to pay him a salary. I wonder if he can tell Zhou Bingshu to be his husband?
"I am a dull person, so how can I be a teacher?" Zhou Bingshu wanted to refuse, but Kiryu explained that he did not need to recite poems and write articles like a literati and poet. He did not need to be an official after going to the scientific examination. He wanted to learn literacy, read more books, and understand all the gossips.
A Yao staggered and thought to herself that Kiryu, your dream is also great.
Zhou Bingshu was also shocked by his dream, and after a while, he agreed.
At night, when I had dinner with Wangyue and Bird's Nest, A Yao mentioned that Kiryu became a disciple and his admiration for Bird's Nest was to a higher level: "Bird's Nest knew heroes with keen eyes! Kiryu was smart and capable, so he brought me a list of Zhenbaoxuan. Now he learned calligraphy from Senior Brother Zhou from Caotang. In time, I think my sweet cake shop can't keep him. My Bird's Nest Sister is super amazing!"
"Ahem." Wangyue showed her presence on the side.
"My Bird's Nest Sister is so powerful because my Master Wangyue is well-teached. The disciples she taught are very powerful." A Yao continued to praise him as if she didn't notice it.
Wangyue: "You girl will praise yourself in a corner. Since my apprentice is so powerful, you can add another 100 taels to the assessment. By the way, let me show you your spoon training?"
"Master Wangyue!"
Laughing and playing, autumn is coming unknowingly, and there is another very grand event in Nanxun County this year-
