Rebirth of farming for a living
Chapter 102
Master Mei pondered for a while: "It's not okay to be illiterate."
"That's not true. But we have agreed to send my brother to school in the spring." Li Qiuyan thought about it, it would only be a few months, and by then he would be able to legitimately read.
"Studying is serious. How old is your brother? Has he found a good school?"
Li Qiuyan was worried when he thought about this. He probably had to be sent to town: "Not yet, I was just thinking about asking. My brother is over four years old, and Sister Congcong's brother is over five years old."
Master Mei looked at Li Qiuyan with disapproval: "That's not a big deal. You should be sent to school this year."
It’s not like he has no money, Li Qiuyan complained silently.
Master Mei pondered again: "If you don't find the right one, I can recommend one to you."
Li Qiuyan was overjoyed when he heard this: "That's great, the person you recommend will definitely not be bad."
Master Mei thought deeply and said deliberately: "That may not be the case."
Li Qiuyan didn't care. Since Master Mei proposed it, there must be a suitable candidate.
As expected, Master Mei continued: "The newly moved family is an old acquaintance of mine. They are very knowledgeable and are planning to open a school."
Li Qiuyan happily agreed: "Then I will bring my brother over to see you another day? When will the school start?"
Master Mei said: "I will ask you in detail some other time."
Master Mei usually had the habit of taking a nap. Seeing that what he said was similar, Wang Congcong said goodbye to Li Qiuyan.Master Mei didn't stay much longer.
"Yanyan, why did you agree to become a disciple without consulting me?" Wang Congcong was still in a daze, and there was always an unreal feeling.
"Sister, Master Mei wants to recruit you, can't you tell?" Li Qiuyan just smiled.
Wang Congcong shook his head. Master Mei had been very kind to her recently and would sometimes stay with her to eat.But I didn't think about it that way.
After all, Master Mei is a master of embroidery and had said before that he did not want to accept apprentices.
But of course she was happy: "Master Mei is amazing."
Li Qiuyan smiled and said, "I will call you master from now on."
Wang Congcong smiled shyly.
Wang Congcong was going to the embroidery room, so Li Qiuyan returned to the shop.
When he got home in the evening, Wang Congcong told his parents about becoming a disciple.
Wang Daniu and Cheng were both overjoyed.
Mrs. Cheng was even more excited: "This is a great blessing."
She had no other thoughts. She heard that Master Mei was a master of embroidery and that her daughter would have a future following him. Wouldn't she be overjoyed?
After calming down, we discussed what apprenticeship ceremony to give.
Wang Congcong thought for a while: "Master is lacking in everything, he just loves sweets."
Mrs. Cheng scolded her: "If there is no shortage, I will give it to you. Let your father go to the town tomorrow to find out what to give as a apprenticeship ceremony."
Li Qiuyan answered: "I have inquired about it. The general apprenticeship ceremony consists of six rites. Let's just follow this example and add some others."
Wang Daniu asked hurriedly: "What are the six etiquettes?"
Li Qiuyan elaborated: "There are six kinds of celery, lotus seeds, red beans, red dates, longan, and dried lean meat strips."
Wang Daniu hurriedly agreed: "The red dates are ready-made, I will buy the rest tomorrow."
Li Qiuyan pondered: "Master Mei liked the mooncakes he made last time. I'll think about it and see if there are any suitable snacks to go with it."
Wang also answered: "I think we should let Congcong make clothes for her master again. This is a big deal."
Li Qiuyan gave a high-five: "Yes, there are still three days left. I will go to the cloth store to buy fabrics tomorrow."
Yes, this is a serious apprenticeship, not as good as going to school.
You should also be cautious.
Wang Congcong felt hot in his eyes when he saw his family making plans for his apprenticeship.
Here, Li Qiuyan is still thinking hard. Master Mei likes to eat snacks made from milk, but there is nowhere to get milk. It's better to take things from Master Mei's house and give them to her.
What snacks should I make?Li Qiuyan was still thinking about it in his sleep.
"That's not true. But we have agreed to send my brother to school in the spring." Li Qiuyan thought about it, it would only be a few months, and by then he would be able to legitimately read.
