Chapter 556
He hurriedly smiled respectfully to the old man: "Master, this is my second brother!"
"Oh, it's your brother!" Mrs. Ding swept his beard and smiled, and nodded to Lianze.
"In Xia Lianze, I met the old gentleman!" Lian Ze hurriedly saluted.
He did not know Mrs. Ding.
Ah Jian knew it.
Ajian was about to go up to see Mrs. Ding, and by the way, he mentioned Lian Ze a few words in case he said something wrong and it would be inappropriate, but when he saw Lian Hai slamming into it, he was quite reproachful to Lian Ze. He frowned and said, "What old gentleman? This is Mrs. Ding!"
Saying that, he hurriedly bowed his hands and bowed deeply and said, "Mr. Ding, the student Lianhai is polite!"
A-Jian raised her eyebrows, then did not step forward, and avoided the side.
"Master Ding?" Lian Ze was taken aback, he couldn't help screaming in surprise, his face full of disbelief, he looked at Master Ding and said: "You, you are Master Ding! The one from the capital Say goodbye to Mrs. Ding, who has returned home!"
Taifu Ding was startled, he couldn't help laughing, nodded and said with a smile: "Well, it's this old man!"
Lian Ze's face was slightly red, he scratched his head embarrassedly, and hurriedly stepped back two steps to salute: "Xiaomin is rude, please forgive me! How happy are you!"
As Lian Ze spoke, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, everyone could see the joy in his heart, and he couldn't help being affected by his flamboyant emotions.
"It's okay, it's okay! Those who don't know are not guilty! By the way, why didn't your sister come?" Mrs. Ding couldn't help but smile when he saw this, and sighed in his heart: The brothers and sisters of this family are very close. In such a family, I think there will be no people with corrupt behavior. I have accepted this apprentice right!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Ding felt even happier!
You must know that after students pass the Tongsheng exam, they will usually enter the county school to learn from their teachers, and they will be able to take the exam next year.
Today, the dean of the county school and several gentlemen are here. The main purpose is to meet the new students in the exam and select apprentices by the way.
Lian Che, as the first place in the Tongsheng exam, at such a young age, is like a piece of first-class rough jade, with great potential to be discovered and carved.
Several gentlemen in the county school, including the dean, are all eyeing him! Everyone worked hard and wanted to bring him in today.
If you think about the future, if you can cultivate a No. 1 champion, what else can make a teacher more gratified than this?
But no one thought that this person, he had already taken a fancy to!
He wants to be admitted under the door, who dares to rob him?
Thinking of the disappointment, surprise, and depressed expressions on those people's faces, Mrs. Ding couldn't help but burst into joy.
When Lian Ze heard Mrs. Ding ask about his sister, he felt very strange, and hurriedly laughed: "My sister is busy today, so she didn't come!"
Mrs. Ding nodded and said with a smile, "Your sister is very good, and so are you!"
Lian Ze didn't expect that Mrs. Ding would praise himself so much. He was a little overwhelmed for a while, and his face became more and more red, not only embarrassed, but more excited.
After a while, he stammered and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Xie Ding for compliments! I, I don't have a sister..."
Mrs. Ding was stunned for a moment, but couldn't help laughing.
He secretly praised in his heart: What a pure heart! This Lian Fangzhou really has some skills, and all the brothers who have been taught are good!
Mrs. Ding smiled at Lian Ze and said, "Your family's Che'er has already bowed to my door, so you don't have to be restrained in front of me!"
Lian Ze's face was hot again, and he hurriedly smiled and said in a low voice.
Lian Hai was so angry and stuffy by the side, he opened his mouth several times to say something, but didn't dare to interrupt it at will, for fear that Mrs. Ding would be angry, and Lian Ze couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart.
Mrs. Ding couldn't stay for a long time, so he smiled at Lian Che and said, "Do you remember what the teacher told you before?"
Lian Che nodded hurriedly: "Students remember it!"
"That's good," Mrs. Ding said with a smile: "Go back and prepare! I'll be waiting for you in the Ding Mansion!"
"Yes, the students respectfully send off the master!" Lian Che said hurriedly.
Mrs. Ding smiled and nodded at his brothers, and walked away with his entourage.
Lian Hai opened his mouth, but didn't have time to say anything.
Today, I heard that Mrs. Ding will also attend. He tried his best to perform well in front of Mr. Ding, but he had no chance at all when he arrived at the scene, because Mrs. Ding was sitting next to the county magistrate, surrounded by all the people around him. It is the famous squire, the dean of the academy, the gentleman, etc., where can I get him?
It would be great if there was some talent competition! It's a pity that there are talent competitions, but it's between the children, and it has nothing to do with their talents.
Looking at Lian Hai is a hatred, wishing that he was also a child of this session.
That's not all, but Lian Che is in the limelight again, and has been praised by everyone. Is suffocating! And I always feel that this compliment is actually irony!
After that, Mrs. Ding actually accepted Lian Che as his apprentice on the spot, and everyone was so shocked that their eyes almost fell to the ground!
Lian Hai was dizzy for a while, his face was so pale that there was no trace of blood! After this, is there still his place? In the eyes of the villagers, he is probably the only one Lian Che!
Master Ding actually accepted him as a disciple! how can that be!
He's just a little kid who doesn't understand anything, isn't he just a child student? What an amazing! There are so many talented people here! Why did Mrs. Ding choose him!
Lian Hai was so depressed that he almost called out "unfair", but fortunately, he wasn't too daring, and he wasn't completely confused, so he didn't dare to disturb the scene.
But the grief, anger and bitterness in his heart are indescribable.
The county magistrate, the dean of the county college, and the squires and celebrities all joined in the fun, and smiled and congratulated Mrs. Ding and Lian Che. The county magistrate ordered the master to pour tea on the spot, and Lian Che did the apprenticeship at that time and sat in Mrs. Ding's seat. around.
Seeing everyone holding and praising Lian Che like the stars holding the moon, Lian Hai can't wait to leave immediately!
But he can't leave! Mrs. Ding is still here!
Since Mrs. Ding can accept Lian Che, why can't he accept him? In no way is he stronger than Lian Che! Mrs. Ding must have missed him!
Even if you don't accept him, it'll be fine if he has a few praises and pointers!
Lian Hai even suspected that the reason why Mrs. Ding accepted Lian Che was whether Lian Fangzhou did something behind his back, or whether she did something wrong! She has always had a lot of bad ideas!
The more Lian Hai thought about it, the more he felt that it was, and he couldn't help but blame Lian Fangzhou.
He was just so cranky, worrying about gains and losses, and he was still confused until the end of the banquet. If Sun Ming hadn't kindly pushed him and reminded him, he still didn't know if he would have made any unconscious rudeness!
Lian Hai followed him all the way out. He wanted to use Lian Che's relationship to talk to Mrs. Ding, but who knows that damn Lian Ze, who is usually honest, but also a rotten insider who robbed him of his life. Chance!
I watched helplessly as Mrs. Ding left, but I didn't even catch a word with him!
