As soon as Nie Xinghua and his party left, Pan Wanxing, the farm manager, brought people over to pay New Year's greetings.

Another polite greeting.

Pan Wanxing didn't stay at Zhang Junping's house for too long, but after a brief chat, he said goodbye and left.

It's not suitable to talk too much about New Year's greetings.

After seeing off Pan Wanxing, Zhang Junping drove a jeep to Wangfujing.

Wu Xinping lives in a small alley near Wangfujing.

Chinese New Year is the most important festival among the three festivals and two birthdays. As long as the disciples are not in other places, they must go to the master's house to kowtow to pay New Year's greetings.

Because of Nie Xinghua and Pan Wanxing's delay, when Zhang Junping arrived at Wu Xinping's house, it was already dawn.

Wu Xinping's house was very lively, there was no room to sit in the main room, and many people stood in the yard.

Wu Xinping's daughter, Wu Xin, was also standing in the yard, chatting with a group of people who obviously came to pay New Year's greetings.

As soon as Zhang Junping came in, Wu Xin saw Zhang Junping.

"Little brother, Happy Chinese New Year!" Wu Xin stepped forward to give Zhang Junping a blessing.

"Happy New Year, Junior Sister!" Zhang Junping smiled and cupped his fists at Wu Xin.

"Little brother!" Wu Xin looked at Zhang Junping and shouted again.

"Little sister, is master and wife in there?" Zhang Junping didn't understand for a moment, and asked with a smile.

"Little senior brother!" Wu Xin shouted again, this time extending a hand towards him.

When Zhang Junping saw it, he immediately understood that this little girl was asking for a red envelope.

Zhang Junping smiled, took out the prepared red envelope from his pocket, and handed it to Wu Xin, "I wish my junior sister grows and becomes more beautiful, and my painting skills will improve to the next level."

"Thank you, brother!" Wu Xin smiled sweetly, and gave Zhang Junping another blessing.

It's different when I take the red envelope. This time I omitted the fine print.

Just as Zhang Junping was about to go into the house, he was stopped by Wu Xin and introduced him: "This is my father's closed disciple, why don't you hurry up and send New Year greetings to the uncle?

Brother, these people are the apprentices of other brothers and sisters, that is, your nephew. "

"Happy New Year, Uncle Master!" A group of people clasped their fists and bowed to Zhang Junping to wish New Year.

"Happy New Year, fellow nephews!" Zhang Junping smiled and cupped his fists in return.

"Brother, you can't just say auspicious words, these are all your nephews.

People give you New Year greetings, are you embarrassed not to give red envelopes? "Wu Xin said with a smirk.

When Wu Xin mentioned it, all the senior nephews looked at this little senior uncle who had just met with hope.

This little girl is really eccentric and can play tricks.

Money, Zhang Junping is really not short of money, but the problem is, he didn't prepare so many red envelopes at all.

There is a stone table in the yard with four stone benches. Zhang Junping sits on the stone benches.

"Then follow the rules!" He took out a dozen brand new ten-yuan bills from his bag, and patted them on the stone table.

According to the rules, what is it?

Naturally, only by kowtow can there be red envelopes.

Now, it's everyone's turn to be embarrassed.

Come on, Zhang Junping is not a few years older than them.

But if you don't knock, today's matter will really be difficult.

If you don't knock, then there are no rules.

The situation was a little stiff for a while.

At this moment, a very energetic child of thirteen or fourteen ran up to Zhang Junping, knelt down and kowtowed, "Happy New Year, Uncle Master! I wish you good health and spirit."

"Okay! Uncle Master loves you, so I'll take it to buy some painting supplies." Zhang Junping smiled and took out a ten-yuan bill and handed it to the child.

Then another four or five-year-old girl ran up to Zhang Junping, knelt down and kowtowed, "Happy New Year, uncle!"

"Okay! Uncle Master loves you, I'll take it to buy some painting materials." Zhang Junping smiled and handed the little girl a banknote.

It would be easy with the leader, and the rest of the nephews lined up one by one to kowtow to Zhang Junping to pay New Year's greetings and receive the lucky money.

Zhang Junping felt so refreshed!
Although it cost a little money, it feels really good to be surrounded by a group of boys and girls kowtowing and paying New Year greetings.

After the New Year's money was handed out, Zhang Junping stood up, "Okay, let's chat outside first! I'll go in and pay New Year's greetings to your master and grandma."

Zhang Junping walked into the main room, which was also full of people.

Wu Xinping and Zhou Yuzhen sat on the Taishi chairs on both sides of the Eight Immortals table in the middle.

Then come down on both sides are eight grand master chairs and four tea tables.

There are people on the eight grand master chairs, and there are still many people standing behind the grand master chairs.

"Master, Madam, Happy New Year! Student Zhang Junping kowtows to you!" Zhang Junping stepped forward to kowtow three times to Wu Xinping and Zhou Yuzhen.

"Okay, good boy!" Zhou Yuzhen quickly got up and helped Zhang Junping up, then took out a red envelope and stuffed it to him.

"Junping, come here and let me introduce you.

This is my eldest son, you call him Senior Brother, my second daughter, you call Senior Sister, this is my third son, you have to call Senior Brother too.

This is..." Wu Xinping took Zhang Junping and introduced them to him one by one.

Good guy, Wu Xinping has quite a few apprentices, and the ones he can solemnly introduce are all in-house disciples.

Otherwise, I wouldn't come to pay New Year's greetings at this point.

Not counting his sons and daughters, there are sixteen disciples who entered the house.

Wu Xinping's eldest son, second daughter, and third son are all between 30 and [-] years old.

It should be the child left by his ex-wife.

The eldest son looks about the same age as Zhou Yuzhen, and even looks older than Zhou Yuzhen in appearance.

However, the art circle is like this, it is normal for old couples and young wives.

Counting from his master's generation, they are all of the same virtue, old husband and young wife.

In fact, not only Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian, Xu Beihong, but also their apprentices are the same.

There are fewer couples of the same age.

People who engage in art are idealists, and it is normal to pursue romance.

It is normal for some young and beautiful female students to turn into admiration out of admiration.

Just like that sentence, there is no cat that does not eat fishy.

Not eating is the condition is not met.

Compared with other seniors in the art world, Wu Xinping is considered a good man.

He married Zhou Yuzhen after his wife died, not after divorce.

It turned out that the children of Wu Xinping's ex-wife were dissatisfied with Wu Xinping's marriage to Zhou Yuzhen, and refused to enter the house for many years.

Looking at it now, it is still very harmonious, and the family is happy and harmonious.

It is estimated that after entering the art circle, after learning about the things in the art circle, they didn't care much about their father's reunion.

Zhang Junping didn't care about Wu Xinping's family affairs, he just came to pay New Year's greetings today.

Under the introduction of Wu Xinping, Zhang Junping greeted all the brothers and sisters one by one.

Unexpectedly, since he received a lot of lucky money again.

The New Year's money that was just sent out in the yard can be worth one-third of it when it comes back.

With so many senior brothers and sisters standing, he, a little senior, naturally had to stand.

Zhang Junping stood at the door, listening to the brothers and sisters chatting with the master and wife.

Zhang Junping originally wanted to be a quiet and handsome young man.

As a result, Wu Xinping refused to let him go.

"Junping, don't you have any words yet?" Wu Xinping asked with a smile.

"no!"

Zhang Junping thought to himself, is this a gift?

"Then let me pick a word for you! It can be regarded as arty, and now famous artists all have a word, it's a name."

"Thank you, master!" Zhang Junping could only agree in front of so many senior brothers and sisters.

"Hmm! Flying with the phoenix, it must be a handsome bird.

Just call Tongfei! " Wu Xinping stroked his beard and laughed.

Zhang Junping was taken aback: Is it so casual?
"Tongfei, I like that you can bring your brothers and sisters to fly together." Wu Xinping continued.

"Don't look at your junior brother as young, his talent in painting far surpasses all of you.

The current level is not much worse than that of an old man like me.

You don't have to have any psychological burdens. Talents are rewarded by God, so you can't envy or envy them.

Just like your master, he didn't learn to paint seriously, but he finally became a master by virtue of his talent and hard work. "

"Master, how could we be jealous of Junior Brother!
We hope that the little junior brother can become a generation of masters like the master in the future. "The elder brother said with a smile.

"I said these things today, not to hurt you, nor to cheer you up." Wu Xinping's name for Zhang Junping became more and more fluent.

"Tong Fei will take over from me next year as the store manager of the painting shop.

He has a very grand plan, that is to promote our traditional culture and traditional art to the world.

Organize a world tour exhibition of traditional Chinese art.

Fly together!I hope that when you implement that plan next year, you can give more consideration to you brothers and sisters.

Over the years, I, the master, have not done them any favors.

Other people's masters always take their apprentices to hold art exhibitions, symposiums and so on.

Only my master will only let them bring their paintings to the art shop again and again to enrich the warehouse. "Wu Xinping became quite emotional as he spoke.

Zhang Junping frowned secretly.

He has a plan, but this plan needs to be carried out step by step, in order to achieve a real win-win situation in the end.

However, now Wu Xinping directly revealed this matter in front of so many apprentices.

It is estimated that tomorrow, or even this afternoon, the BJ art circle will know that there is such a plan.

This is tantamount to disrupting one's own plan.

"So, fly together! I hope you can fly together with your senior brothers and sisters. In the touring exhibition, push more works of your senior brothers and sisters.

Although they can't become phoenixes, it's not a problem to be handsome birds. "Wu Xinping is still immersed in his own world.

The other disciples, at this time, have changed from being resentful and dissatisfied at the beginning to being grateful to Wu Xinping.

"Master, you are wrong! Brothers and sisters are the phoenix, and I am the handsome bird flying with the phoenix.

You forgot, my name is Zhang Junping! "Zhang Junping suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and said with a smile.

"Haha...ha!" Zhang Junping's words made everyone laugh out loud.

I don't know if it's really funny, or it's just for show.

Anyway, they all laughed happily.

Only Zhang Junping laughed loudly, but his heart was full of bitterness.

This master worshiped him, but he didn't see the benefits yet, so he created a big trouble for himself first.

Among other things, who wouldn't want to participate in an art tour organized by the state?
They paid for it and rushed to participate.

Not for the sake of making money, after a round of touring exhibitions, it is to enhance their academic status in the art circle.

Everyone wants to participate. There are hundreds of artists at the same level as Wu Xinping, Wu Guanzhong, and Qi Gong.

In addition to bamboo and wood carving, jade carving, root carving, sculpture, porcelain, silk, paper cutting, etc., at the same level, there must be hundreds of people who can be called masters.

With so many artists, it is certainly impossible to participate all at once, and they will be divided into [-], [-], [-], [-], [-], [-], [-], and [-] batches for promotion and promotion of touring exhibitions.

Well now, the news is out.

Look, it's time for the Eight Immortals to cross the sea and show off their magical powers.

Not only him, but even Wu Xinping, the instigator, couldn't be free.

If one is not good, it will offend others.

Not to mention anything else, after Wu Xinping finished talking about the matter, the brothers and sisters all started to make friends with Zhang Junping.

Zhang Junping kept his posture very low, talking with his brothers and sisters

In his heart, Zhang Junping shook his head secretly. Wu Xinping had cheated himself.

Zhang Junping just chatted with his brothers and sisters, not saying a word, not even reminding him not to spread the word.

It's useless to say it!
This is human nature.

After about an hour or so, the brothers and sisters bid farewell and left one after another.

Zhang Junping also took his leave and left.

Drive back to the courtyard.

"Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu, happy new year!" Zhang Junping knocked on the door of Uncle Liu's house and wished the two of them New Year's greetings.

"Pingzi is back, happy new year to you too!" Uncle Liu responded hastily.

After leaving Uncle Liu's house, he went to Aunt Wang's house. In the courtyard, Zhang Junping went door to door to pay New Year's greetings.

Then go home and wait for others to give him New Year greetings.

Zhang Junping took out a large bag of fruit candies, milk candies, and chocolate candies from the space, all of which were imported candies.

Those purchased at Double-Headed Eagle for zero yuan should also belong to imported candies.

Double-headed eagles are notoriously sweet-toothed and love sugar.

Of course, their sweets are also very famous.

Zhang Junping took out another large bag of melon seeds and peanuts.

After a while, the Huaizhi brothers and their younger sister entered the house.

As soon as he entered the door, he knelt down, kowtowed three times to Zhang Junping, and said blessings in a decent manner, "Uncle Pingzi, Happy Chinese New Year! I wish you a wealth of wealth and prosperity."

"Happy Chinese New Year to you too!" Zhang Junping helped the three of them up, handed out a red envelope to each of them, grabbed a handful of candies, and stuffed them into their pockets.

There was not much money, only ten cents in a red envelope, and Zhang Junping prepared the same red envelopes for all the brats in the yard.

A dime is enough to make the children happy.

No matter how much it is, even if it creates conflicts, it will be taken for granted.

In fact, for children, lucky money is not as popular as candy.

Because, even if it is a dime, it may be confiscated by my parents in the name of me saving it for you.

Only candies, melon seeds, and peanuts really belong to them.

Before Huaizhi and the others could go out, a group of brats squeezed in.

After entering the door, he fell to his knees, kowtowed to Zhang Junping, and said New Year's greetings in a chaotic manner.

Each of Zhang Junping received a red envelope, a handful of candy, and a handful of melon seeds and peanuts, filling their pockets to the brim.

Just as the brats were being sent away, Li Wenjuan walked in.

"Master, I wish you New Year's greetings! I wish Master a prosperous official career, and wish Master and Mistress an early birth of a son." Li Wenjuan respectfully kowtowed three times to Zhang Junping.

"Get up! Master rewards you!" Zhang Junping gave Li Wenjuan a thick red envelope.

This is a real apprentice, Zhang Junping naturally can't be stingy, there are ten brand new ten yuan bills inside.

"Thank you, Master!" Li Wenjuan happily accepted the red envelope.

"Master, is Mistress not at home?"

"Why? Want to ask your wife for another lucky money?" Zhang Junping asked back with a smile.

"How can it be! If my wife is willing to give it, I can't refuse it, can I?" Li Wenjuan stuck out her tongue mischievously.

"Then I'm afraid you will be disappointed. Although your wife and I have obtained the certificate, we haven't held a wedding, so she is at her house." Zhang Junping laughed.

"Xiao Li, do you know what Shu Xiu is?"

"I know! It's the ancient apprenticeship ceremony!

There are six things, including six kinds of gifts, including dried meat, celery, dried longan, lotus seeds, red dates, and red beans.

Dried meat is to thank the teacher, celery means hard work, and dried longan means..." Li Wenjuan pointed with her fingers.

Zhang Junping looked at her with a smile, but didn't speak.

"Ah! Master, do you want to tell me that I didn't send you the six rituals?" Li Wenjuan suddenly realized and shouted.

"It's not that I don't have any teachings if I'm self-cultivated." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Master, what do you mean by that?" Li Wenjuan rubbed her head, unable to understand what it meant.

"How did you go to high school?" Zhang Junping smiled and knocked Li Wenjuan's head off.

"This is a sentence of Confucius recorded in the Analects of Confucius, which means that as long as you give the ceremony of apprenticeship, no matter how high or low you are, I will teach you seriously.

Shuxiu first came from the Analects, referring to ten pieces of dried meat bundled into a bundle.

The dried meat here refers to dried pork or bacon.

In ancient times, pork was a cheap meat, and the gentry and scholars would not eat pork.

Therefore, ten strips of dried meat are a very humble gift.

The meaning of what I said just now is to tell you that it's time for you to give the ceremony of apprenticeship.

It doesn't matter how expensive the gift is, what matters is a heart.

understand? "

"Understood, Master!
I'll send you a bunch of repairs tomorrow! "Li Wenjuan said happily.

Zhang Junping beat Li Wenjuan again, "Let your parents come and send Shuxiu!
It didn't matter if I was in the material bureau before, I was just a master who taught you how to purchase, and I didn't pay attention to those ancient rituals.

However, now our master and apprentice are in the art circle, we have to pay attention to ancient etiquette.

You go back and tell your parents that if they want you to worship me as a teacher, let them write a good teacher invitation post.

On the morning of the sixth day, I waited for them in the Dashilan courtyard. " Zhang Junping said seriously.

"Understood, Master!" Li Wenjuan was also infected and became serious.

"Did you practice calligraphy at home these few days?" After finishing the business, Zhang Junping began to test his studies.

"I've practiced, one big character every day, and I haven't missed a day."

"Write a few words, let me see!" Zhang Junping pointed to his book case and said.

"Master, Happy New Year!" As soon as Li Wenjuan picked up the pen, Xia Guoxiang hurried in, knelt down and kowtowed three times to Zhang Junping as soon as he entered the door.

"Why did you go here? Why are you still sweating?" Zhang Junping helped Xia Guoxiang up, stuffed him with a red envelope, and asked with a smile.

"Master, I rode to Red Star Farm early in the morning, and Grandpa said that you went to the city to pay New Year's greetings to Master.

After kowtowing to my grandparents, I went to the master and said that you just left.

After kowtowing to my master and grandma, I came to you. Xia Guoxiang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smirk.
