Warm spring enters Hou's door

Chapter 109 Du Yi Apprenticeship

Gu Caiwei raised her head and met a pair of soft eyes.

Her heart softened at once.

"I'm really jealous this time." Du Junqing said in a low voice, "but I didn't intend to separate from you. I went out yesterday, just to let myself be alone, and to think about how to deal with this matter. Who knows the result Wu Chongxun and Wu Yanji seized this opportunity... I was wrong. I shouldn't have left you in this environment surrounded by wolves just because of impulse. It is God's blessing that you can survive now. Will not do such a thing.”

"It's not God's blessing, it's Brother Fang who protected me." Gu Caiwei corrected him.

Du Juanqing frowned again. "You're right, it's mainly Fufengzi's credit. I'll have to thank him later."

Seeing his ugly face when he was talking, Gu Caiwei couldn't help but said: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't go, anyway, he did it to help me. No matter when and where, as long as I encounter difficulties, he will stand up and help me of."

Du Juanqing took a deep look at her when he heard the words. "It's because of this that I want to go even more. Since he has always cared and cared for you as an elder brother, then I have to treat him like an elder brother. Otherwise, it would be too shameful!"

Gu Caiwei couldn't help laughing.

Where is this guy going to say thank you?He simply wanted Fu Fengzi to recognize his identity, and then retreat in spite of the difficulties.He wants to take an oath of sovereignty again!

As expected, the man she chose had no intention of backing down.

Du Junqing did what he said.

After dealing with the matter in front of him temporarily, he hurried to Fufengzi's residence again.

But when he got to the place, he saw Du Yizheng and Gu Tianyuan standing outside the yard, both of them were motionless and did not whisper to each other, they just stood there obediently, like two small wooden sculptures.

Du Juan frowned, and he strode over. "What are you doing?"

"Shh!"

Du Yi hurriedly turned around and made a silent gesture to him. "Father, don't make a sound, senior Fufengzi is busy, he said not to be disturbed."

Du Yi looked at the guard at the gate of the courtyard. "What is he up to?"

"Don't guess, it must be taking care of his precious hatchet!" Gu Tianyuan said lazily, "His knives and axes are his heart, and he must clean them and oil them after each use. Maintenance. This time, this hatchet has been cut so many times, including two people, the knife edge must be seriously damaged, and he needs to take care of it."

Du Juan frowned slightly when he heard that, but he still stood firmly at the gate of the yard.

These people stood for a long time before they heard a clear voice from inside: "Come in!"

Only a group of them crossed the threshold.

When they walked inside, they saw that Fufengzi had cleaned the bloody hatchet clean, and even put a layer of oil on the blade. Now the knife was as bright as new, and he was carefully placing it in the shade. Ventilate to dry.

Seeing this, Du Juanqing immediately stepped forward: "Thanks to your help, brother, I can protect my wife and children. I will always remember your kindness, and I will definitely repay it back in the future."

"Who allowed you to call me brother? Did I admit your identity?" Unexpectedly, Fu Fengzi immediately turned around and asked lazily.

Du Juanqing's face changed slightly. "But she is my wife. This is a well-known fact. And we have a very good relationship now, and we plan to be together for a long time. If you really love her and hope that she will be happy for the rest of her life, shouldn't you Do you respect her opinion?"

"I want to respect her opinion. But the premise is that you are absolutely reliable and can protect her for the rest of your life." Fu Fengzi said coldly.

"Of course I—" Du Juanqing was about to say that he could, but Fufengzi interrupted him, "But you have already made a big mistake today. And I have already asked, before in Chang'an City, she I also encountered danger several times, and you helped her get through it a few times. On the contrary, she helped you a lot! You can even be said to be because of her today. As a man, Don't you feel ashamed?"

Du Juanqing's shoulders shrank from his harsh words and lessons.

"You're right. I was really useless before, but she made her worry about me and stood in front of me to shield me from a lot of wind and rain." Du Juan said in a deep voice, "But it is precisely because of this that I will be able to do it in the future." Treat her well and give her double compensation for what I owe her."

"Do you want to double the compensation, or let her continue to pay for you?" Fu Fengzi asked coldly again.

Du Juanqing replied firmly: "Double the compensation. In the future, I will not let her be hurt again, not anyone else."

Fufengzi snorted immediately.

"You are not very capable, but your tone is not small. Then tell me, how are you going to protect her next?"

"You just have to wait and see." Du Juanqing only said.

Fu Fengzi's eyes were slightly cold again, he stared at Du Juanqing, and Du Juanqing also stared back proudly, and the two of them fought silently for several rounds with their eyes.

Gu Caiwei really couldn't stand it anymore.

"Have you two had enough trouble?" She growled unbearably.

Immediately, Du Juanqing was shocked, and Fufengzi also changed his aloof image in front of Du Juanqing just now. He looked at Gu Caiwei cautiously: "Awei, I am helping you."

"Help me! You're just bored and looking for something!" Gu Caiwei said angrily.

After finishing speaking, she glared at Du Juan again. "And you! This is obviously my business. Why do you throw me away and want to rely on the two of you to decide my final destination? I'm not a kitten or puppy. Who can let you say what you want? You can have it if you want it? And you won’t let me suffer any harm in the future? Can you stop talking in front of me? No one in this world can do this, and I have never been weak enough to need others in every way Protection. Do you understand?"

Both men were burnt weak by her anger.

Someone as stubborn as Fufengzi nodded quickly. "I see."

Du Junqing also lowered his head. "I was wrong."

"If you know you've made a mistake, you should reflect on me! Of course, you should make up your own mind about my wife's affairs!" Gu Caiwei said in a cold voice, then turned around and left.

"Ma'am, wait for me!" Seeing this, Du Juanqing quickly turned around and followed.

When Fu Fengzi saw this, his eyes dimmed, and he looked at Du Yi and Gu Tianyuan who were still standing aside. "You can go."

Du Yi immediately took a step forward, he wanted to say something, but Gu Tianyuan grabbed him. "Let's go! Let's talk about it next time."

But at this time, Gu Caiwei and Du Junqing returned to the bedroom one after the other, and the maids and servants along the way saw the cold aura lingering around these two people, and they all backed away in fright, letting them indulge in Go fast on the open road.

After returning to the room, Gu Caiwei sat down, and Du Juanqing hurried over.

"Sorry, I was wrong."

In one day, he made mistakes three times!

I'm afraid that before this, he didn't admit so many mistakes in his life, right?

Gu Caiwei smiled lightly. "Master Hou, don't you admit your mistake and admit it? You say sorry so easily, it seems that the three words sorry are too worthless."

"I was really wrong." Du Juan shook his head, "You were right just now. Even Her Majesty the Empress is not capable of protecting everyone, let alone me, a mere Marquis of Changning. I Just now I was so excited by Fu Fengzi that I deliberately bluffed in front of him. I really can't keep this promise. Besides, you are not a powerless little lady, so what I say is also a sign of your ability. Big insult, you're right to be mad. I shouldn't have said that in the first place."

Gu Caiwei's temper that was rampant in her heart immediately disappeared completely.

This man always does.Obviously, her every move just now made her very angry, but in a blink of an eye, he was able to deeply analyze his mistakes, and he said every word to the point, and he also attached a way to correct it.

He had already lowered his posture so low, how could she have the nerve to fight with him?

This man really grasped her weakness to death, so he knew that she was a person who was soft but not strong.

Gu Caiwei pursed her lips. "Since you know you are wrong, then you should know what to do in the future."

"Of course I know." Du Juan nodded quickly, "Besides doing my own thing well, I will also use practical actions to let others know that I have the ability to protect you, and I will be strong enough so that they cannot take it away from me. You. Only in this way can those people give up completely."

Gu Caiwei blinked.

"Can you really do it?" she asked softly.

"I can." Du Juan nodded firmly.

Gu Caiwei immediately smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck. "It's just that this journey is destined to be very difficult. But if you change your wife, you don't need to be so troublesome at all."

"No change!" Du Juanqing's expression darkened when he heard the words, and he quickly put his hands around her waist again, "I want you in this life, not any other woman!"

Gu Caiwei felt warm in her heart immediately, she quickly lowered her head and buried her face in his neck, and finally couldn't help giggling.

Feeling her twitching laughter leaning against him, Du Juanqing slowly relaxed the corners of his tightly pursed lips, and he also took a low breath, with a slight smile on the corners of his lips.

However, right now he and Gu Caiwei have reconciled, but there are still a lot of things waiting for him.

For example, at the time of lunch, Fu Fengzi claimed that he would not come to eat if he had something to do, Du Juanqing couldn't ask for it.Although he has accepted the fact that Gu Caiwei has many fiancés, and that Fu Fengzi is here for Gu Caiwei this time, it doesn't mean that he is happy to see this person!
Not to mention that Fufengzi has never had a good face towards him, and even now he has not agreed with him in his heart.If this person came out to eat with them, he would definitely try to choke him with words.

It's not like he's full, so of course he can't like someone treating him like this.

However, what he didn't expect was that just after everyone sat down, when the food was served, Du Yi casually took a few bites, and he put down his chopsticks.

"Father and mother, I have something I want to discuss with you."

Du Juan nodded. "you say."

"I want to worship Fufengzi as my teacher."

Du Juanqing immediately sank. "no."

"Why?" Du Yi whispered unhappily.

"I should ask you that." Du Juan asked coldly, "Why do you want to worship him as a teacher?"

"Because I adore him!" Du Yi replied loudly, "He is so powerful! He is also a master swordsmith, his hands are still so sharp, and today's hatchet dance is so beautiful, even better than the sword dance I saw in Chang'an. Be more vigorous. I want to be like him in my life!"

When he spoke, his eyes became bright, and the stars in his eyes were shining, extremely bright.

"Becoming like him, you will have to suffer a lot, it's not worth it." Du Juan reminded him coldly.

"I know, I'm ready!" Du Yi said hastily, "I can endure hardship!"

Du Juan frowned tightly.

"No." He still refused.

Fufengzi can be regarded as his rival in love now!And they had just finished arguing today, and then he turned around and sent his son to be an apprentice, what's the matter?

He still needs face!

"Father!" Du Yi yelled anxiously.

Du Juanqing immediately lowered his face. "You don't have to call, I can't agree to this."

Du Yi's face immediately collapsed, and he looked at Gu Caiwei eagerly. "Auntie..."

"You don't need to ask your mother to plead. If I don't agree, it's useless if she agrees." Du Juanqing interrupted him again.

Du Yi suddenly pouted his mouth so high.

"I'm full, I won't eat!" He threw the chopsticks angrily, turned his head and left.

Seeing this, Du Juanqing paused for a moment while holding the chopsticks, and then put them back weakly.

This is really interesting for father and son.Obviously knowing that if such a quarrel continues, it will definitely end in a loss for both sides, but the two of them are still unwilling to back down, insisting on their views.

These two stubborn cows!

Gu Caiwei sighed secretly, and she couldn't help but said: "Actually, the two of you are arguing for no reason."

Du Juanqing immediately turned around. "yes?"

The voice was icy and cold, and Gu Caiwei, who had been sleeping with him for so long, couldn't help but feel flustered.

Gu Tianyuan, who buried his head down and finished a bowl of rice, hastened to speak at this moment. "Brother-in-law, sister is right. It's not like you haven't inquired about who Fufengzi is before. His reputation in the world is no worse than his two senior brothers, and he will definitely catch up in a few years. Yang Mingzi, such a person, how many people all over the world are crying and shouting to recognize him as a master! This phenomenon has started since he came out of the mountain, and more and more people chase him every year. He has a haughty personality and a vicious vision, so far he hasn't taken a fancy to any of them! In fact, there have been many good seedlings in the middle, but he can't take a look at them, so with his nephew's small stature, he can take a look at him. Strange!"

"That's right, that's the reason." Gu Caiwei nodded quickly, "Brother Fang's vision is outrageous, he doesn't look down on Ayi, so don't worry about it!"

The corner of Du Juanqing's mouth twitched.

Obviously the two siblings were speaking to comfort him, but why didn't he feel comforted at all when he heard it, instead he felt even more panicked?
"My son is not bad either. He is smart and his health is much better than before." He said in a deep voice.

"Yes, yes." Gu Caiwei nodded, "Ayi is indeed much better than himself at the beginning. But after all, he is congenitally deficient, compared with those children who are born fat and eat delicious food since childhood. It’s still too far away.”

She was seriously reminding him to recognize the gap between people, and Du Juanqing also understood.But when he heard these words, he felt that his ears were pierced and panicked.

Originally, having a Fufengzi in the family made him panic, but now his sons and daughters-in-law have come to add to his troubles, and even his brother-in-law has come to step on him!
Du Juanqing was in an extremely bad mood. "I'm full too."

He stood up and left too.

Then only Gu Caiwei and Gu Tianyuan were left in the dining room looking at each other.

"Sister, did we say something wrong?" Gu Tianyuan asked cautiously.

"No." Gu Caiwei shook her head without hesitation, "It's just that honest words are harsh, and they hurt people the most. They won't be able to accept it for a while. But it doesn't matter, they will eventually accept it."

When she said this, Gu Caiwei still felt that Du Yi was just on a whim, and didn't take his request too seriously.But soon, she knew that she was wrong——

Since Fu Fengzi came to join Du Juanqing in the name of a master swordsmith this time.Then after resting in the Hou's house for the whole night, in the afternoon, he put his precious tools in the back basket and took the initiative to ask to go to the mine.

Du Juanqing immediately arranged for Du Ren to send him there.

But as soon as Fu Fengzi left, Gu Tianyuan rushed to report: "Sister, brother-in-law, it's not good! Just now, Ayi took advantage of us not paying attention, and secretly changed clothes with Azhong, and then dressed up as a member of our Houfu. The servant followed Fufengzi to the mine!"

Gu Caiwei was stunned for a moment, and Du Junqing also lowered his face.

"This kid wants to fight with us first, right? Well, let him go! If he wants to go to the mine to suffer hardships, then let him go, I don't care!" Du Juanqing flicked his sleeves and shouted angrily.

Gu Caiwei also pursed her lips. "This matter has now become his obsession. He will definitely not be willing to give up if he is not allowed to try it. Then let him try it. He should come back when he is hungry."

As a result... Du Yi didn't come back.

He has been in the mine for three full days, and until now he has no intention of giving up.

Du Ren quietly went to see it several times, and when he came back, he described it to Gu Caiwei and Du Junqing: "The prince is really determined this time! He has been discovered after he followed the mine, but no matter who persuades him, He refused to come back desperately, and insisted on worshiping Fufengzi as his teacher. Then, he followed Fufengzi every day. When Fufengzi went to work in the sword casting room, he stood and waited outside; when Fufengzi came out, he Follow him step by step; when Fufengzi eats, he serves the bowls and chopsticks; even when Fufengzi sleeps at night, he directly lays a bed outside Fufengzi's house!"

In the end, he couldn't take it anymore. "Master Hou, it's rare for the son to be so sure about one thing, so you just promise him! It's already autumn, and the weather is getting colder and colder every day. The son is not in good health, and he still sleeps on the floor every day. He doesn't know how much damp and cold he will be exposed to, and when the time comes, it will be you and your wife who will suffer and suffer?"

Du Juanqing's face was gloomy, and he didn't speak for a long time.

It was Gu Caiwei who asked, "Then how did Fufengzi react?"

"Uh, this..." Du Ren hesitated immediately.

Du Junqing raised his head when he heard the words. "Tell me, what did Fu Fengzi say?"

"He actually didn't say anything." Du Ren replied in a low voice, "From the very beginning, Fu Fengzi told Shizi clearly that he would never consider accepting someone who was not brought by his parents to visit him. But since Shizi won't give up, He pestered him life and death, and he just tossed around with the prince, but he never said a word to the prince since then."

So, in fact, from the very beginning, it was Du Yi who was acting affectionate!

Du Juanqing's face now looks like a paint shop opened, red, yellow, blue, purple, blue, black, all kinds of colors flashed on his face one by one.

"Presumptuous!" He slapped the table, unable to bear it any longer, "Why should he beg a craftsman in such a low voice? He tore off the face of our entire Changning Hou Mansion and threw it on the ground for others to see." Step on it! And after the others stepped on it, they just left without any sign at all!"

It’s tolerable, it’s unbearable!

After all, he is also a person who wants to save face, how can he bear such treatment?
So, Du Juanqing couldn't take it anymore. "Come on, prepare the horses, the Marquis is going to the mine!"

"Prepare one for me too, I'll send some food to Ayi." Gu Caiwei said hastily.

I haven't eaten well for three days, and the poor child doesn't know how hungry he is!

"No need to send it to him. If he really wants to eat, he can go back home, no one will send him there!" Du Juanqing immediately scolded again.

Gu Caiwei stuck out her tongue helplessly. "Yes, I know."

Poor Ayi, your father is really going to be tough this time.

However, before they had time to go out, something happened to Gu Tianci again.

The servant girl who served him hurried over. "Master Hou, madam, Mr. Wulang started crying and howling to go back to Chang'an just now, but the two servants couldn't hold him back. The servant girl gave him a bowl of calming soup, but it didn't work, he was still there Struggling and shouting!"

That day in the back garden, watching Fu Fengzi chop a servant from the Wu family in half with a knife, Gu Tianci was terrified.

He passed out on the spot and didn't say anything, but after finally waking up, he started crying and shouting to go back to Chang'an, refusing to stay here even a moment longer.No matter how much the servant girl tried to persuade him, he just didn't listen, and his actions became more and more intense every day.The next day, he even packed his bags and wanted to run away!

After being captured, he even wanted to forcefully break through.

And then, crying and yelling to escape from this devil's lair became something he had to perform countless times a day.Gu Caiwei specially prescribed Anshen Decoction for him, but it only worked at the beginning, and now the dose can't last for a long time.

No, now this kid is making trouble again!

Du Juanqing was in a bad mood at first, but now that he heard the news again, he immediately scolded: "Since he wants to leave, then let him out! This Marquis will take him away!"

"Ah? Brother-in-law, are you really planning to send him back?" Gu Tianyuan whispered in surprise.

Du Juan sneered. "of course not."

"Then what are your plans?"

"Didn't he feel that he was in a purgatory on earth just after seeing a person die? Then I will send him to the real purgatory on earth right now!"

Gu Caiwei immediately understood. "Are you planning to let him go to the mine permanently?"

Du Junqing nodded.

Gu Caiwei pursed her lips, but did not object.

Mining has always been a hard job, especially for those folks who quarry, their life is extremely hard.Now their iron mine is supported by the imperial court, and the money is still sufficient. Du Juanqing also paid for someone to raise a flock of sheep on the mountain, and added some meat to the dishes of the peasants every day, but this can only ensure that they have enough to eat. .

They go into the mine every day at dawn to work, pick or carry out the heavy raw iron piece by piece, and work until dark before they can catch their breath.Dashan is moody, and accidents often occur due to excessive and rapid mining, and the lives of many civilians are accounted for in it.The scene was a bloody mess... Gu Caiwei couldn't bear to watch it a second time after watching it once.

And if one life is gone, the imperial court pays ten or twenty guan, which is considered as the utmost benevolence, and the family of the civilian husband should be grateful.

Every time a mine is opened, hundreds of lives are left there.

Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that this place is a purgatory on earth.

After Gu Caiwei thought about it, she nodded. "Wu Lang is indeed too pampered. Now that he is here with us, I, as a sister, really have to let him seize the opportunity to make some achievements. Otherwise, how can I explain to my uncle and aunt later? If so, Marquis, you can just arrange a place for him to work! It’s okay to be a little bit hard, anyway, as long as you don’t have to worry about your life.”

Du Juan nodded. "That's what I planned too."

So, Gu Caiwei ordered to go down, and the two servants quickly brought out Gu Tianci, who was still mad, without even saluting.

When Gu Tianci heard that they were finally willing to let him go, he was overjoyed. "Brother and brother-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely not tell anyone about what I saw that day, I will rot in my stomach! I will definitely not betray you!"

Gu Caiwei frowned.

Until now, he has been talking about this matter, which means that he has not let go at all.

In this case, this person really cannot be sent back to Chang'an.That was a brilliant choice to keep him in the mine.

Immediately afterwards, they all got on their horses, and Gu Tianyuan also got on his pony, and they all walked towards the forest together.

At first, Gu Tianci was happily dreaming of going home to reunite with his father, but as the team walked slowly into the depths of the forest, he heard the sound of beating call signs ahead, and he began to feel that something was wrong.

"Where are you taking me?" He asked hastily.

"Of course it's a place where you can see bigger scenes!" Gu Tianyuan replied with a smile.

Gradually, the chants of the men who carried the ore became louder and louder, and the knocking sounds from the sword casting sheds around the iron mine became more and more obvious, Gu Tianci felt that something was wrong.

He turned over and wanted to jump off the horse.

But Du Ren has been staring at him!Seeing his actions, he immediately stretched out his long arms, threw Gu Tianci to catch him, and threw him back on the horse. "Mr. Wulang, please be careful. The jungle is dense here, and snakes, insects, rats and ants will come out of the mountains at every turn. Be careful if you step on them and get bitten."

Gu Tianci immediately didn't dare to move.

He was lying on the horse's back, holding the rein tightly with both hands, wanting to cry without tears.

But no matter what he thought, their team finally came to the mine anyway.

"Master Hou!"

"Seventh brother!"

As soon as they heard that they were coming, Mr. Qin Shiliulang and Du Junhong, the sixth son of the Du family, immediately put down what they were doing and ran over to meet them.

In the past few months, they have been busy in the mine, and they have completely made the mine their home, and live here directly at night.Over time, they all became dark and thin, but they were in good spirits.

Du Juanqing nodded to them one by one, asked about the situation in the mine, and learned that the overall operation here was still normal, of course, some minor situations were unavoidable, so he nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he asked Du Ren to bring Gu Tianci over.

"My little brother-in-law is naturally timid. Two days ago, I was frightened when I saw the two brothers of the king of Gaoyang County go crazy in the Hou's mansion. I still tremble when I think about it. Now he urgently needs a place to practice courage. Do you know if you have any recommendations?"

As soon as Du Junhong heard it, he immediately said: "There are many places to practice courage in our mines. But I think the best thing is to take care of the peasants. This job is easy, and you don't need to do anything every day. You just follow him all day long. Those folks, keep an eye on them and don’t allow them to be lazy. Once there is anything in the mountains, he can come back and report. If he encounters excellent iron ore mined, it will be a greater contribution! My son has made several contributions these days If I hadn't been too old to run up and down the mountain, I would have wanted to do this!"

When Gu Tianci heard it, he immediately shook his head like a rattle. "You let me stay with those dirty folks all day long? I won't go! I won't go if I'm killed!"

"Then why don't you go do chores for those swordsmith masters? Send them iron ore and pick up firewood every day, and you have to wash and dry the clothes that the masters have replaced. And these masters forge iron ware, I often forget to eat and sleep, and you will remind them when you have time." Qin Shiliu Langjun also said immediately.

After a pause, he added: "However, masters generally have a violent temper. Especially if they are interrupted at a critical moment in the forging of weapons, they must be very angry. If you are not good, you will be kicked out, kicked It is also possible to break a few ribs. Many handymen here have been kicked and vomited blood, and there are still a few lying in the mine doctor's place!"

Gu Tianci suddenly felt a dull pain in his ribs.

"I'm not going!" He immediately shook his head even more vigorously.

"If you see this, then choose the first one." Du Juanqing immediately nodded, "Where is the Fourteenth Lang? Let him come over and bring him there."

Du Shishilang is the son Du Junhong brought to Yongxing County this time, and he is now considered a small steward in the mine.

Du Junhong nodded quickly, and hurriedly asked someone to call his son over.Du Shishilang went into the mountain every day, and he was as black as a lump of carbon.However, his strength grew stronger and stronger.

After coming over and hearing Du Juanqing's request clearly, he nodded readily: "Uncle, please rest assured, since he is your brother-in-law, I will definitely take good care of him!"

After finishing speaking, he lifted Gu Tianci by the neck and carried him away like this.

Gu Tianci was still struggling and screaming.But in Du Shishilang's eyes, his struggle was as useless as a little chick kicking his legs and flapping his wings. As for his loud cries... Amidst the continuous forging sounds all over the place, there were also endless screams on the mountain. Covered by the sound of the trumpet, his cry was worse than the humming of a mosquito, and many people didn't hear it at all.

Gu Caiwei has not been to the mine for a long time.When she came here again today, she found that the place had changed a lot, which was completely different from the sparsely scattered and only a few people going back and forth when she came last time.

I saw that a large corner of this tall mine had been dug out, and more iron ore was exposed.Many passages have also been manually dug on the mountain, and there are many folks who dig or transport iron ore.There is also a large piece of flat land at the foot of the mountain. On the east side of this place are sword-making rooms piled up with red bricks, and on the west side are bedrooms.All the places are fully occupied, and there is almost no place to step down.

As far as I can see, there are people everywhere, and everyone is busy back and forth, a vibrant scene.

"Where is your son?" At this moment, Du Juanqing suddenly asked another question.

Qin Shisanlang quickly replied: "It's over there! Look, the one standing at the door of the sword casting room at the end, the one who is the smallest and thinnest is him!"

With such a point, Du Juanqing and Gu Caiwei could see clearly.

But just because she saw it clearly, Gu Caiwei's heart couldn't help but ache.

Back then, as the son of Marquis of Changning, although his status was not considered too noble in Chang'an City, he was also raised by Du Juanqing in the palm of his hand.The little guy was dressed in silk and satin all day long, clean and refreshing, and he didn't even do heavy work.

But now?He was wearing a set of dusty clothes, his hair was just tied up with a piece of cloth casually, and the little flesh that was so easy to grow on his small face was gone, so thin and thin, the dust on his body seemed to have not been washed for a long time , the small face is white and black, like a little beggar.

Seeing this, Du Juanqing immediately strode over, pulled his son up and was about to leave.

Du Yi was standing at the door to observe the movements of Fu Fengzi inside!Unexpectedly, someone came to pull him, he turned his head and kicked Du Juanqing's knee.

Du Juanqing's knee immediately felt a sharp pain, and his expression became more gloomy in an instant.

"Father? Why are you?"

Only then did Du Yi realize who he had kicked, his shoulders shrank immediately, but he still withdrew his hand. "Father, why did you come here?"

"I'll take you back." Du Juanqing said, he stretched out his hand, "You've had enough trouble, you can go home."

"I won't go back!" But who knows, Du Yi immediately put on a serious face and shook his head resolutely, "I said that I want to worship Fu Fengzi as my teacher. Then as long as he doesn't agree to accept me, I won't leave for a day!"

Du Juan frowned tightly. "He won't accept you, your qualifications are too poor."

Du Yi's face collapsed.

But he still said stubbornly: "Even so, I have to hear him tell me personally, otherwise I won't give up!"

"Really? That's good." Du Juan nodded, and he immediately strode towards the sword casting room.

"Father, don't! Fufengzi is forging a sword!" Seeing this, Du Yi hastily yelled.

Gu Caiwei also frowned.

But fortunately, Fufengzi is not very busy right now.Du Juanqing went in and said a few words to him, and Fufengzi came out.

The temperature in the sword casting room was extremely high, so Fufengzi only wore a pair of shorts, and his upper body was naked.Although he doesn't look very good when he puts on his clothes, but once he takes off his clothes, all his lumpy flesh is exposed outside.He tossed and tossed in front of the stove for a long time just now, all the muscles in his body were in a state of excitement, which made his figure look more robust and powerful.

Gu Caiwei and Gu Tianyuan saw it, and they both let out an exclamation at the same time.

"Brother, you are getting stronger and stronger!" Gu Tianyuan gave a thumbs up.

Gu Caiwei also nodded. "So lovely."

It was only three words, but it hit Du Juanqing's chest hard - his figure was far worse than that of Fufengzi.

However, he immediately cleared his throat, and said with a cold face: "Fu Fengzi, the son of the Marquis said that he needs you to reject him in person before he is willing to give up. You should give him a good time now!"

Fu Fengzi glanced at Du Yi. "Your aptitude is indeed extremely poor, and you are the worst among the people who have taken the initiative to come to my sect these years."

Du Yi's face turned pale immediately.

"Besides, you came to me on your own initiative without getting permission from your parents. I don't even have to think about an apprentice like you, and I will reject you." Fufengzi said again.

But Du Yi immediately seemed to have grasped at straws. "Does that mean you will think about it after I get my parents' permission?"

With that said, he quickly turned around and took Du Juanqing's hand. "Dad, you heard me. It's still possible for me to worship under his sect. I know I've got your consent! Talk quickly! As long as you say you agree, then no matter whether he agrees or opposes, I will admit it!"

Du Juanqing sighed helplessly. "Okay, I promise."

Du Yi hurriedly looked at Fufengzi excitedly. "Master, listen, my father has already agreed!"

"Alright then, since you sincerely want to worship under my name, I'll promise you." Fu Fengzi nodded.

As soon as these words came out, there was silence at the door of the sword casting room.

Du Juan's face darkened suddenly, and Du Yi's eyes widened.He stared blankly at Fufengzi for a long while before asking in a low voice: "Master, what did you just say? I'm sorry I didn't seem to hear clearly."

"I said, I promise to take you as an apprentice." Fu Fengzi said every word.

Du Yi immediately jumped three feet high.

"Great, Master, you are finally willing to accept me!"

He screamed and jumped, and he turned around and hugged Du Juanqing and Gu Caiwei one by one, jumping and jumping. "Father, mother, did you hear that? Master has accepted me! He has accepted me!"

"I heard it." Gu Caiwei responded in a low voice, and couldn't help but secretly glance at Du Juanqing.

It doesn't matter if you look at it, this man's face is as dark as the bottom of a pot!

"You don't count what you say." Du Juan stared at Fu Fengzi coldly.

"Is there? I don't remember that I said that I would never accept his words!" Fu Fengzi replied with a smile, "I just said that I would not accept a child without the consent of the parents. But now that he His parents have already agreed, and this child has been very well-behaved and motivated recently, which is completely different from your unmotivated elder, so it doesn't matter even if his qualifications are poor, I am confident that I can teach him well."

After that, he said with a smile again. "Of course, if you, Marquis Changning, want to go back on your word, I won't stop you. Just take this child away."

"Father, don't!" When Du Yi heard this, he quickly shook his head at Du Juan.Tears welled up in those bright eyes.

Seeing his son like this, Du Juanqing's eyes gradually turned serious.

"Ayi, is this really what you want? You have to know that once you choose this path, you must persevere to the end and never give up halfway."

"My son knows, this is the path I want to take." Du Yi lowered his head and said word by word.

Du Juanqing closed his eyes again and let out a long breath. "Well, since this is what you want, then you can go to apprentice."

After speaking, he nodded to Fufengzi again. "It's just that this Marquis's eldest son is going to be a teacher. This matter must be cautious. Benhou will hold a teacher apprentice banquet immediately, and invite all the respectable people in Yongxing County to participate. I also ask you, Fufeng, to make preparations."

When Fufengzi heard this, his expression suddenly changed.

"Marquis Changning, you set me up!"
