Chapter 33 Apprenticeship
It's no wonder that old man An uses honorific titles. In this day and age, scholars and medical practitioners are all called like this to show respect.

Lao Liao repeatedly waved his hands: "I don't dare to call you Mr., I think you and I are about the same age, why don't you call me Lao Liao, how about I also call you Lao An?"

"Sure, you can call it whatever you want. My two useless grandsons told me along the way. If it weren't for you, they would probably have died. You are the savior of our family. Thank you no matter what. Although there are no delicacies at home, there are still some simple meals, and I hope you don't refuse."

Thinking of what the two grandsons said about what happened at that time, old man An is still terrified. It can be seen how dangerous the situation was at that time. Fortunately, Lao Liao arrived in time, otherwise the grandson and granddaughter might not survive.

Mr. Liao didn't refuse, he nodded in agreement with a smile, pointed to the black leopard in the corner of the yard and said: "Who said there are no delicacies from mountains and seas, then there are ready-made ones, Xingyi, scraped this leopard for me and sent it to the next door. Tonight we will also eat the leopard meat, as for the skin, after peeling it, I will make a jacket for this girl, it must be warm."

"Oh, I can't help it, I can't help it, this is the prey you two killed, how could you give it to us," Old Man An hurriedly refused.

Mr. Liao waved his hand indifferently: "What are you doing so politely? We are all neighbors. We will get along with each other for a long time. Besides, I don't want to eat rough food. I just want to eat this leopard meat today. I just want to trouble your family to make it. , my Xingyi's cooking skills are really not good."

Xingyi silently killed the leopard: (/￣-￣/)
Seeing that the old man was talking about this point, he had no choice but to give up, just remembering his kindness in his heart.

Seeing the little girl covering her mouth and giggling, Mr. Liao was immediately amused. He pinched the face that he wanted to pinch for a long time, and said cheerfully: "Little girl, why are you secretly laughing, remember what I just said? "

An Zhinan nodded repeatedly, showing two front teeth: "I remember, thank you Grandpa Liao."

"Just remember, I heard that you are studying in the school, did you gain anything?"

An Zhinan raised his head, his face full of arrogance: "I have gained a lot, Mr. Ji often praises me, and said that it is a pity that I am not a man, otherwise I would definitely be able to get a degree and win glory for my family."

Old Liao smiled instantly, looked at An Zhinan lovingly and said, "That's right, you are so powerful."

As he spoke, he looked at old man An and An Chongyuan, and said seriously: "It's a good thing for a girl to read and write. It's hard for you to let her learn, but the school is full of men. As the old saying goes, men and women have different seats at five years old. The peasant family doesn’t pay much attention to this aspect, but you should pay attention to it, you must have heard some of the gossip in the village, if this girl is older and still goes to school, her reputation may be hindered.”

Old man an and his son were silent at the same time.

An Zhinan was in a hurry, fearing that his grandfather would not let him study, he quickly said, "Grandpa, I want to study, reading is fun, I can know many things that I don't usually know, and I can learn a lot of truths, I don't want to give up. "

"What your grandpa Liao said is not unreasonable. After all, the school is full of men. It is not suitable for you to go as a little girl. Now you guess that when you are five years old, someone in the village will talk about it. If you are older, you will not want to marry in the future."

An Zhinan replied without thinking, "Then I won't marry and will stay with you for the rest of my life."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, several people laughed.

An Chongyuan looked at his daughter lovingly: "Nan Nan, we are doing it for your own good, and we don't want people to ruin your reputation. You are still young, so you don't know how important a girl's family's reputation is."

Looking at the stubborn girl who pursed her lips and said nothing, Old Liao's heart moved slightly: "Is that why you want to study?"

An Zhinan nodded heavily.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to go to the school in the future. Your grandfather and your father are also thinking of you, but you can't help but want to study."

An Zhinan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took Elder Liao's hand and asked, "Grandpa Liao, what can I do?"

"I will."

An Zhinan stared: "What?"

Elder Liao rolled his eyes in disgrace, stretched out a finger and pointed at An Zhinan's forehead: "I said you look very clever, why are you so stupid now?"

After speaking, without waiting for An Zhinan to react, he coughed twice and straightened his posture, and continued with a high-spirited appearance: "I am not talented, I was a Jinshi when I was young, and I have taught a few students with some skills over the past few decades. .”

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking, straightened his shirt and waited for someone to come up.

In the end, after waiting for a long time, there was no response. Turning around, the little girl was whispering to her grandfather and father, and even glanced at herself from time to time.

"Ahem, what are you talking about?"

An Zhinan said obediently: "I just asked my grandfather what a Jinshi is, hehe."

Old Liao:
Just as Mr. Liao was thinking about how to tell the little girl tactfully, he almost didn't come up after hearing what she said next.

An Zhinan looked at Elder Liao innocently and asked, "Grandpa Liao has said so much, but he still didn't say anything."

"I said, you girl, why are you so stupid? Mr. Ji from your school really praised you for being smart? Why don't I believe it so much?"

Seeing Mr. Liao blowing his beard and staring at him, An Zhinan burst out laughing, stood up and gave Liao a favor, and said with a smile, "Grandpa Liao calm down, I was just joking with you, I know What Grandpa Liao meant was, hey, he just let me learn from you, you see that you are so powerful, and I am so smart, it is not easy for you to teach me."

Mr. Liao, who was successfully shunned, was in a very happy mood, especially when An Zhinan said that he was amazing, and the corners of his mouth couldn't hold back: "Well, this is true, since you know, you are still standing here doing it." what?"

The old man An and his son had been watching anxiously for a long time. Hearing these words, they kept urging: "Nan Nan, what are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and kowtow to worship your teacher. It's rare that Grandpa Liao is willing to accept you."

An Zhinan knelt down towards Old Liao in the expectant eyes of the three, his small face was rare and serious, after kowtowing three times, he took the tea brought by Xing Yi from the main room and placed it respectfully in front of his forehead, The voice was crisp and clear: "Master, please drink tea."

Old Liao drank it with a smile, stretched out his hand to help the girl whom he valued a long time ago, and said kindly, "Okay, good boy, get up quickly."

An Chongyuan and old man An smiled brightly, even Xingyi, who was usually expressionless, smiled at this moment.

It's rare that Mr. Liao has taken in an apprentice again, and he has been with him to observe An Zhinan for the past two months. He has good conduct in all aspects, but he is a little playful and mischievous, but isn't this just the child's nature.

The reason why An's father and son are happy is because Mr. Liao is kind to An's family;
