The second day.

Huanglong Martial Arts School, back house.

After the children were sent away, Duan Chong and his wife Ning Shuhua talked about something that happened today.

"There is a disciple named 'Cao Ren' in Brother Huang's martial arts school. Have you ever met him?"

Duan Chong looked at Ning Shuhua.

"Maybe I've seen him before, but I can't match the name to the person." Ning Shuhua shook her head.

She had been to the martial arts training ground in the front yard several times and met seven or eight disciples from the Huanglong Martial Arts School, but as a woman, she didn't need to find out who their names were.

"It's the one with a black face and few words."

Duan Chong gave a brief description, and before Ning Shuhua could recall it carefully, he smiled and said: "When I first saw this man, looking at his face, I thought he was a young, mature and steady man. But I learned from Brother Huang that this Cao Ren himself

Since last year, more than 20 martial arts schools have been replaced."

"How can I practice martial arts with such a temper?"

Ning Shuhua frowned slightly.

The first thing to focus on when practicing martial arts is the mind. The mind is unstable. If you have to go to Longwangshu, you will have no long-term nature, and it will be difficult to achieve anything.

For example, this is Cao Ren.

After changing more than 20 martial arts schools in one year, I am afraid that each one will only learn a superficial lesson, and all the time will be wasted, and there may be no real progress at all.

"Martial arts are indeed mediocre."

"However, Brother Huang mentioned this person to me a few days ago, and his attitude was quite interesting. In the past, Cao Ren never practiced martial arts in various martial arts schools for more than ten days. But now he has stayed in Brother Huang's martial arts studio.

Seventeenth."

"Ha ha!"

"Brother Huang is actually quite flattered."

Duan Chong couldn't help laughing when he mentioned this paragraph.

"Is there anything else?"

Ning Shuhua was stunned for a moment, with a smile on her face, and then asked curiously: "Brother Huang is the person I mentioned to you a few days ago, why did Senior Brother mention him today?"

Or come back and talk about it on the same day a few days ago.

Or don't mention it.

After a few days, I kept mentioning it from beginning to end, what is this?

When Ning Shuhua asked, Duan Chong also had a strange look on his face: "Cao Ren came to see me today and said he wanted to become his disciple."

"Apprenticeship?"

"Sure enough, he has a temperament that looks as high as the next mountain."

Ning Shuhua smiled after hearing this.

Neither Duan Chong nor she would accept such a disciple as his disciple.

But looking at Duan Chong again, there was hesitation on his face.

Ning Shuhua thought for a while and asked: "Is this Cao Ren's qualifications better?"

If you have excellent qualifications, temperament issues can be polished.

Can--

"no."

"Extremely mediocre."

Duan Chong shook his head.

Ning Shuhua was annoyed by his hesitant look and said angrily: "Say it in one breath!"

"Why--"

"I said I said."

Duan Chong smiled bitterly and said: "Cao Ren is not qualified, but he is rich and sincere. As long as he can become his disciple, he is willing to offer twenty taels of silver. From now on, he will pay five taels of filial piety every month. If he teaches two martial arts, then ten

Two, three doors and fifteen taels.”

"..."

"..."

Ning Shuhua was stunned for a moment, and finally understood.

It turns out it wasn’t hesitation.

But I was blinded by money!

"Twenty taels of apprenticeship fee!"

"At least five taels of filial piety every month!"

Ning Shuhua opened her mouth and had to admit that she was also stunned.

The couple faced each other and were silent.

After a long time.

"What do you think, senior brother?"

Ning Shuhua looked at Duan Chong.

"I--"

Duan Chong hesitated for a moment and then said hesitantly: "Since Cao Ren is sincere, I can accept him as a disciple. In the past, many wealthy families donated money to Qishan, so that their children can go to the mountain to learn skills."

Collect money and recruit disciples!

This is not a shame!

At present, their family is almost at the end of their rope, and they are living in a friend's home. Although the friend is open-minded, it is inevitable that he will be dependent on others, which is not a long-term solution.

If Cao Ren is accepted, twenty taels of silver can temporarily solve the problem of money expenses. From now on, it will be at least five taels per month. Even if it is only March or May, earning dozens of taels can enable the family to settle down smoothly in Xijing City.

At that time, the couple's injuries may have been properly treated, and there was no need to worry about livelihood issues.

This is a stopgap measure.

It is also the rain in the midst of drought.

only--

"How can this person be willing to put so much effort into his senior brother?"

"But Brother Huang——"

Ning Shuhua thought of another thing and felt suspicious.

"Shuhua!"

Duan Chong looked solemn and interrupted.

"I did not mean that."

Ning Shuhua also knew that she had made a mistake.

Her husband's friend Huang Long kindly took in their family, but here she suspected Huang Long of revealing their identity to the outside world. This is not what a gentleman would do.

Duan Chong also knew that his wife made an unintentional mistake and did not follow the instructions. He only patiently said a few words of gratitude and trust, and then continued: "Cao Ren said that he was limited by his qualifications and had no way to join the big martial arts school.

, can only hang out in a small martial arts school, but they are not powerful people, and their martial arts skills are also ordinary. When they saw me a few days ago, they thought it was an opportunity for a master to suffer. I also saw that I have a close friendship with Brother Huang, and he learned that I am a good person.

That's why I'm willing to place a bet. It's only a few dozen taels of silver. If it doesn't work out, I can change it at that time, so that we can get together and get together easily, and we won't suffer any loss."

Mentioning Cao Ren's words, Duan Chong was secretly proud and couldn't help but blush.

But Cao Ren's words were open-minded and transparent. Although he was throwing money at people, in line with his dark-faced and kind image, his words were a little awkward, which made people not disgusted at all.

At first glance, he looks like a good person.

"Then answer him."

"If you take people's money and teach them carefully when the time comes, it will be considered a good conscience."

Ning Shuhua breathed a sigh of relief.

…

"It's finally done!"

After receiving Duan Chong's reply, brothers Cao Xin and Cao Ren also breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially Cao Ren!

This year was simply not a life for human beings, and I suffered a lot physically and mentally.

Now!
