Chapter 414: How about the inkstone
Qian Liangzheng was not busy at the Yamen today, so he came to the restaurant, thinking of packing some snacks to eat with Mr. Wen on the way.
During this confinement period, Shanshan ate very light food. After confinement, she was finally able to eat some food from outside.
Unexpectedly, he met Xiao Mochen and Lu Lingxi. He deliberately sent someone to deliver a message to the house and asked Wen to take the child out to eat.
Come to think of it, Afu has become a little too lively since she had her younger brother.
I don’t know what kind of family I should tell her in the future. Qian Liangzheng is a little worried before he reaches that age...
"After entering Beijing, do we need to tell Mr. Xiao Guo?"
Lu Lingxi's question made Xiao Mochen a little confused, "No need, my good stepmother is the best at showing off."
In the last life, when the two of them entered the capital, they were blocked at the city gate by people from Duke Xiao's palace, and then they put on a good show for the people in Shengjing.
Thinking of Zhou Lan and her good daughter, Lu Lingxi's eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
She and Xiao Mochen are no longer the poor little people they were in the previous life.
"We've settled in, and we're just looking for a chance to see grandma."
Xiao Mochen's tone was cold. The only family member who belonged to him in that cold home was his grandmother.
Others, hey, nothing.
What happened to Lingxi, he wanted to pay back bit by bit.
And how did his mother die?
Died in childbirth?
Who believes it?
The time has entered May, and half of May is the time Xiao Mochen and Lu Lingxi discussed to go to Shengjing.
In this short period of time, several people have made arrangements for the handover of the business. The business in Fucheng must be handed over to reliable people. In the past few months, several people have deliberately started to train managers.
Fortunately, several people have good tastes, and the people selected so far are all very reliable.
As for whether it's still reliable after that, let's leave it to time.
Xiao Mochen went to Dean Cen's house alone. Because of Cen Jingshu, the number of times Xiao Mochen went to Dean Cen's house decreased a lot.
Mrs. Cen couldn't believe how the girl she raised had become like that.
It was only after Dean Cen was ill and bedridden that she saw clearly that some people were not spoiled by her, but were born with bad roots.
She didn’t have much to do with them. Mrs. Cen believed that she had never treated Cen Jingshu badly in life and raised her carefully. When she took her from her elder brother’s house and raised her under her knees, there were many scars on Jingshu’s body.
Fortunately, she has taken good care of her over the years. Even the scar removal cream was bought by Dean Cen from outside.
Dean Cen had no idea that any woman could not read. He taught Cen Jingshu to read and read since she was a child, and taught her how to read step by step.
She had learned all the principles of benevolence and righteousness in those books.
Mrs. Cen was completely heartbroken, but she still tried her best to take care of the last thing for Cen Jingshu - her marriage.
It can be regarded as a time of happiness that Cen Jingshu brought to them by being raised under their knees for so many years.
Master Cen felt very proud when he saw that his most proud and favorite disciple had lived a peaceful and prosperous life in Fucheng these days, and had his own connections.
Some time ago, I found out that I had taught Cen Jingshu crookedly and I was disheartened. After seeing how good Xiao Mochen was, it was diluted a lot.
He actually sees people very accurately.
He knew that Jingshu was not worthy of this disciple.
"You will do well in the capital. Don't forget your original intention, and you will always succeed."
Mr. Cen’s words were serious and sincere, and he gave his master’s instruction for the last time.
Xiao Mochen listened to the teachings with an open mind. The teacher-student relationship between him and Master Cen actually didn't last long.
After he was dismissed for the first time, he was known as a child prodigy. In the end, he interrupted the exam because of his health.
After that, he left the academy and has been recuperating at home, but the care, love and gifts from Master Cen were never left behind.
"Master should also take good care of his own body."
"ah?"
Master Cen's eyes widened and he scratched his ears again to see if he heard wrongly.
He finally heard Xiao Mochen call him master.
"Did I hear wrongly?"
"Did I hear that right?"
"Mo Chen, you just called me master, right??!!"
Master Cen's voice was a little louder, but suddenly the excitement faded away.
He used to be shameless and claimed to be Xiao Mochen's master, but now he really doesn't want to take advantage of his master's name.
After Xiao Mochen went to Shengjing, he could find more powerful teachers and help him in the officialdom.
"I heard wrong! You should call me Master."
"I can't teach you anything in the future." Master Cen still has a very clear understanding of himself.
I have a clearer understanding of Cen Jingshu.
Cen Jingshu:....
Whose surname is Cen? Don’t turn your elbows too far!!
Xiao Mochen seemed to understand the master's reaction.
He immediately let out a deep sigh.
"Since Master doesn't want me, then——"
"You can't forget it." Master Cen replied fiercely. Hey, his heart aches when this apprentice is let out! Master Cen covered his heart, oh, it hurts so much!
I can't even open my eyes.
"Master is here, please accept my disciple's bow."
Xiao Mochen obeyed his kindness, knelt down and paid homage to his master, and skillfully served him the apprenticeship tea.
Mr. Cen drank the apprenticeship tea with a glowing face. This tea was extremely delicious.
"Okay." Master Cen was not without good things. He took out a few volumes of books from the box with care.
His eyes were full of nostalgia.
"Here, apprenticeship ceremony."
Seeing that Xiao Mochen didn't refuse, Master Cen glanced at his apprentice and immediately took it back.
His apprentice is just what he likes, hey, his vision is still good.
"Apprentice, I remember that you are about to reach the crown." Master Cen asked.
"Master, I don't have the words yet." Xiao Mochen said with a smile on his lips. His master's personality was sometimes awkward and very arrogant.
