Spring is in full bloom

Chapter 37: learn from others The Xu Xing'er is still sitting on the wheelbarrow, and on the other side is a teacher worship ceremony for the Wu family. She always felt a bit flustered when she was sitting in the car. She didn't know why. Her eyelids also began to jump. She couldn't help turning her head and asking Xu Laosan, "Dad, how do I always feel uneasy? What's going on?" "What can happen? There are people walking on the mountain road every day, and you can't get lost if you don't meet big animals. You can just sit down." Xu Laosan didn't take his daughter's words seriously. It was just that she was too nervous to go to a teacher, and he kept comforting her. "Yes." Xu Xing'er also thought that he was too nervous. His eyelids may have jumped because he didn't sleep well the night before, and he was squinting on the beam in the middle of the unicycle. The car pushed by Xu Laosan was stable and fast, and it would go around when it encountered stones or potholes. So Xing'er was very comfortable on the top, and fell asleep like this. It was almost to xishan'ao. Xu Laosan woke her up and said: "get up mentally, and you will be there later." Xu Xing'er got up and looked at the house in front of her not far away. She couldn't help but be a little nervous. She also ignored the upset in her mind just now. Xishan Aozi is a village in the mountain. According to legend, there were people who collected herbs in the mountain. They thought it was a good place, so they settled down here. At first, some people were just passing by to stay. Later, someone moved to settle down. After a long time, they formed such a small village. Although the number of people here is less than that of Xingyuan, the size of the village is much better. After entering the village, most of the houses that can be seen are tall tile houses. In Xingyuan village, only one member of the hometown has such a good house. Xu Xing'er looked at these tall and beautiful houses and couldn't help but smack his mouth: "when can you and your mother cook such a good house?" This was heard by Xu Laosan, who said with a smile: "your mother and I live well now. After Xing'er married a family with a big house, he also lived in it." "No matter how many other people's homes are, they are all their own. How can they not be more reassured than their own things." Xu Xing'er's mouth was lifted, and then he looked left and right and asked, "which courtyard is Shanzi Ge's home?" "I'll ask someone." Xu Laosan said that he stopped at the edge of the ground and asked a man working in the field, "elder brother, I'll ask you how to get to Wu Laosan's family in our village." "You walk along the road beside the field to the jujube tree over there, and then turn left, and walk for a while. His house is newly built, and there is no couplet on the door, so you can see it at a glance." the elder brother in the field is very enthusiastic and points out the way. "Thank you!" Xu Laosan was just about to leave when he saw Shanzi coming. Shanzi was so far away that he shouted: "Xu San Shu, Xing'er, this way! Then he came running fast. "You, Shanzi, are you here to be your son-in-law? It seems that the elder brother working in the field is familiar with Shanzi, and he made a joke without hesitation. "Don't bullshit Uncle Li, this is my third uncle's Apprentice." Shanzi didn't take these things seriously like Xu Xing'er, and explained earnestly, "I don't care, don't spoil the reputation of a little girl." The uncle originally saw that Xu Xing'er was young and thought he was only seven or eight years old, so he just made a harmless joke. But seeing Shanzi's serious look, he knew that his joke was a bit excessive. He rushed to Xu Sangong to apologize. Xu Laosan waved his hand and said he didn't mind. Xu Xing'er also got off the car and walked to Wu Laosan's house side by side with Shanzi. "The body is not good yet?" Shanzi asked with concern, "it seems that your face is a little bad." "Last night, I had a low fever again. I was scolded by my mother. Today, I almost couldn't come." Xu Xing'er said that he suddenly asked, "how do you know that we are coming today? Also specially come out to meet us?" "I'm not a prophet. How can I know that, but I want to go up the mountain for a walk, and I'll see you as soon as I go out." Shanzi refused to admit that he planned to come out every day to meet you, so he said, "my third uncle is ready to meet you. Guess what?" Xu Xing'er was stunned for a moment, and then tentatively said: "stone carved herbs?" "Poof!" Shanzi chuckled, not saying yes or no, but just raised his hand and patted Xu Xing'er's head, "you'll know when you see it." "Don't say it's a drag, I'll know later anyway." Xu Xing'er saw that the two people said that they were all separated from Xu Laosan and hurriedly stepped up. Turn from the jujube tree and walk not far away to see a row of high wall courtyard. The courtyard wall is made of stone and clay. One person is more than one height, and the gate is also made with great style. You can see the brick houses in the courtyard vaguely. "Ho!" Xu Xing'er was startled. Although she had seen many tile houses when she entered the village, she still did not expect that Shanzi's family would be so imposing. She could not help looking at Shanzi standing beside her. The Tibetan blue jacket, black trousers, leggings from the ankle to the leg, a pair of self-contained cloth shoes on the foot, are all half old, you can see that they have been washed many times, all slightly faded, the cuff, elbow bend and other places have been worn a little rough. "What are you looking at?" Shanzi was a little hairy when she looked at her. She looked down at herself and didn't think there was anything wrong with her. "Nothing, it's just..." Xu Xing'er said, "the real person doesn't show his face. I can't see that it's still a rich two generation..." her last sentence was very low, only she could hear it. "My house is better, and it's also an industry left by my ancestors. Only the third uncle married this house is newly built in recent years. Do you think I'm like a rich man?" Shanzi directly pulls Xu Xing'er to the courtyard, "don't mutter, go to the teacher first, what's more, wait until the teacher's ceremony is over." The courtyard is obviously just swept, and the ground is still wet. The layout of the house is really simple and clean. Wu Laosan stands next to the table. There are incense burners, tributes and statues on the table. The statues are covered with red cloth. There is no ancestor. There is a futon in front of the table. Xu Xing'er went up and knelt on the futon as Xu Laosan had taught him before. Mr. Wu went up to uncover the red cloth, revealing the statue of the medicine King Bodhisattva inside, and let Xu Xing'er go up to the ancestor. Xu Xing'er was confused. He didn't expect that it was the medicine King Bodhisattva, but he still kowtowed three heads respectfully, took three incense from Wu Laosan, and came forward to offer incense. Then Mr. Wu sat down on the main seat, sat upright, and looked at Xu Xing'er with a serious expression. Xu Xing'er knelt down and kowtowed three heads. He took Xu Laosan's prepared apprenticeship gift. There was celery, lotus seeds, red beans, dates, longans and a piece of meat in one package. There was also a package of Dim sum at the bottom. Wu Laosan took over something and nodded: "I said before, it's my own to accept you as an apprentice, and it's nothing to do with our Wu family. Although I'm not as skilled as my hometown, if you want to learn steadfastly, you can get along well in this mountain, it's also enough." He said here for a while and continued: "but we also need to say the ugly things in front of us, first of all, we should be honest and upright, not do things that are unconscionable; secondly, we should always have good thoughts, not ask you to help the world, but not to save, at the expense of others; finally, we should not go into the mountain to pick herbs, not to damage trees, not to Ye Shanggen, not to take, not to take, not to take, not to take, and to leave everything on the front line, not to kill." "Yes, I must remember that." Xu Xing'er kowtow again, and then he took the tea from Shanzi. He walked up to Wu Laosan and said, "master, please drink tea." Wu Laosan took the tea cup, drank a sip of tea, then put the tea cup back on the table, picked up a red cloth bag from the table, and handed it to Xu Xing'er, saying: "this is a meeting gift for you. Today, there are many rites for teachers, so you don't need to be so restrained. When you are free, you can follow Shanzi to run the mountain. Although he only learned a little, it's enough to enlighten you." After listening to this, Shanzi can't help making a face at Wu Laosan, "if you let me hear it, I'll definitely have to smoke you." Wu Laosan glared at him, but it was soon broken. The serious expression just now disappeared, and he recovered the ruffian smile he had before. He raised his hand and slapped him falsely and said, "you know that the master loves you, and you have taught me how to press the bottom of the box?" "I'm still in the red. I don't dare to learn things at this level even if I'm willing to teach them to me." Shanzi quickly shook his head. Although he learned a lot of know-how from the master, after all, his experience is too shallow. Many things can't be useful on paper. Only by going to the mountain more, can he know how to deal with various things. Xu Xing'er is holding a red cloth bag sent by Wu Laosan in his hand. He wants to know what is in it, but he is embarrassed to open it, so he can only wait to go out. Three people chatted a few words, and someone outside shouted: "old three, come out to Zhang Zhangyan!" "Here we are!" Wu Laosan replied, patting Xu Xing'er's head, "do it well, you have more to learn!" "Master, I will learn from my senior brother." Xu Xing'er smiled and glanced at Shanzi, "senior brother, you can't hide your privacy and not teach me!" "I'm still not teaching you the same way." in fact, Shanzi also wanted to know what was in that red cloth bag, so he hurriedly pushed Wu Laosan and said, "uncle, I'm calling you outside. Let's see." After watching the person walk out of the courtyard, Shanzi turned to Xu Xing'er and said: "when the third uncle bag was still hiding from me, he quickly opened it to see what good things it was." Xu Xing'er put the cloth bag on the table and opened it gently. When she saw what was in it, she couldn't help but whine and was incredibly dull.
