Chapter 12: Invitation

Tao Taifu opened his mouth to accept a disciple, but no one else in the world dared to compete. Afterwards, Zheng Yuanpei laughed along with him at the dinner table, carefully poured wine for Tao Taifu, and then made a toast. In the end, Zheng Yuanpei was helped back by a servant.

"Xiao Yanyan, bring the rice wine you brewed. These are all fake goods." After Zheng Yuanpei left, Tao Taifu stopped holding it. He lifted up his meticulous clothes and put his left foot directly on the leg of the stool.

Now, how can you feel comfortable?

"Are you really Tao Taifu?" Wang Yajie still couldn't believe it.

"I didn't see Zheng Ba's attitude towards me just now, how can I still pretend?" Tao Taifu rolled his eyes, "You kid, just have fun, you can be my disciple, study hard, don't lose me.

Face, I am the emperor’s teacher. If you can’t study well, the emperor will be embarrassed.”

Wang Yajie's face turned a little pale, and he suddenly realized that Alexander had never dreamed of becoming Tao Taifu's disciple.

Chen Xiuyan came in with a pot of rice wine, "I have drank a lot, and I can only drink one pot of rice wine today."

"Hey, I accepted your husband as my disciple, and it's worth a pot of rice wine!" Tao Taifu said in disbelief.

"Stop pretending. Didn't you say that after inspection, my husband's ability to attract your attention has a lot to do with my rice wine?" Chen Xiuyan teased.

"Ahem, it has a lot to do with it." Mr. Tao couldn't look directly into Luo Wenqian's eyes. He always felt that the boy's eyes were somewhat similar to that of the person in his memory, and what he couldn't stand the most was that person's eyes.

"Hey, can you stop staring at me? No matter how old I am, just look at your wife." Mr. Tao glared at Luo Wenqian, then took the wine bottle in Chen Xiuyan's hand and poured it for himself.

Take a cup, take a sip, and have a sweet aftertaste.

He wanted to pour more, but the jug was taken away by Luo Wenqian, "I'll pour it for you. Just have another drink."

"Hey, you..." Tao Laozhen wanted to retort, but when he saw Luo Wenqian's deep eyes, he instantly shrank, "You are so unkind, I just helped you out. From now on, when others hear that you are mine,

Disciple, who doesn’t look up to you? Why don’t you even give me one more glass of wine now?”

"You are allergic, have you forgotten?" Luo Wenqian raised an eyebrow.

"Your wife said I can drink it," Mr. Tao shouted.

"You may not have heard everything. You should drink a little." Luo Wenqian frowned slightly, with a look of disapproval.

"Okay, okay, pour me another cup, just two cups." Tao Lao blew his beard and stared, but fortunately he agreed.

Luo Wenqian poured a glass and then stopped pouring him any more.

After Mr. Tao had eaten and drank, he went back to his house to rest. Wang Yajie couldn't come to his senses for a long time, "Brother Ziqing, is it really Mr. Tao?"

"Zheng Daru's attitude is the best proof, don't doubt it." Luo Wenqian said with a smile, "This is not a good thing. We don't need to be apprentices to Zheng Daru, and we have a master as our master."

"I, don't I feel like I'm in a dream?" Wang Yajie said with lingering fear, "Brother Ziqing, we didn't treat Tao Taifu too casually before. Oh no, the house in the front yard is a bit crude, how can we let Tao Taifu

If I continue to live here, I have to..."

"I think it's best to maintain the status quo." Luo Wenqian stopped Wang Yajie and said, "After getting along with each other these past few days, I feel that Tao Taifu is a casual person. He probably doesn't like to be too heavy on vulgar etiquette."

Wang Yajie didn't take any action after hearing this, because he could see that what Tao Taifu really wanted to take over was Luo Wenqian. He should just be passing by, but he was so excited. Being taken by him like this made his ancestral graves smoke, and he had to write a letter to his family.

"Then we should go back to Yijiang County in a few days?" Wang Yajie suddenly thought that Zheng Daru was going to Yijiang County to teach Ning Youjin. What about Tao Taifu? Can he follow them back to Yijiang County to teach?

"I'll ask you tomorrow." Chen Xiuyan said, "Since I want to accept you as a disciple, you must follow the apprenticeship etiquette. You can't do it casually. I will be responsible for these. You two can just become a disciple in peace."

Chen Xiuyan was extremely happy.

When she sobered up the next day, Chen Xiuyan went to see Tao Taifu in person. Of course, she didn't go empty-handed. She went with shredded chicken porridge, small siu mai, red bean paste buns, and steamed dumplings.

He warmly entertained Mr. Tao after breakfast before getting down to business, "Mr. Tao, when do you think the apprenticeship ceremony is appropriate? Should it be done in Fucheng or when you return to Yijiang County?"

Tao Taifu took a sip of the digesting tea and glanced at Chen Xiuyan, "You don't want to suffer at all. You just sent me away with all these things. Now you've even given me the apprenticeship ceremony and asked me to go to Yijiang County!

"

"Mr. Tao, you may not know that I haven't fully displayed my good skills. The most important thing is that the pastries made by a neighbor at home are excellent. I haven't tasted anything better than her since I came to Fucheng.

Food.”

"Oh, and our Yijiang County, Linjiang, has a lot of river fresh food. You are allergic to seafood, but river fresh food may not be like this. What's more important is that I am a powerful doctor. You may be able to treat it during my treatment.

I won’t be allergic anymore after taking it.” Chen Xiuyan blinked her eyes and said.

"Let me ask first, have you ever been allergic to seafood?"

"I didn't really have allergies before, but I don't know when I will start to become allergic." Mr. Tao sighed.

"Then there's a better way." Chen Xiuyan smiled. It's not just a natural condition. Use the water from the space, add traditional Chinese medicine for conditioning, and cooperate with appropriate exercise. Once the physical condition improves, the allergic reaction will be eliminated.

"Can you cure my allergies?" Mr. Tao was a little surprised. After all, even the imperial doctor couldn't do anything.

"You'll know if you try it," Chen Xiuyan said seductively, "Mr. Tao, are you going to Yijiang County?"

"Tsk, tsk, go." Mr. Tao hummed. Anyway, he wanted to travel around, and it would be good to live in Yijiang County for a while.

"What about the apprenticeship ceremony?" Chen Xiuyan asked in a low voice.

"Go to Yijiang County to do it. This is not your home. You won't invite anyone to come anyway. I will let those who should know know." Mr. Tao thought about the breakfast and said, "Tomorrow.

I want to eat soy milk fried dough sticks. I heard that this is a southern delicacy. Can you make it? I plan to go to Jiangnan later."

"Of course I will." Chen Xiuyan said matter-of-factly, "I also plan to make wine in the future."

"Wine? You mean the kind of dark red fruit wine that foreign countries pay tribute to?" Mr. Tao asked in surprise, "Can you make it?"

"Yes." Chen Xiuyan nodded, "I think Mr. Tao's life in Yijiang County will be extremely comfortable and exciting. I know a lot."

"Then let's set off back to Yijiang County tomorrow." Mr. Tao couldn't wait.

"We originally planned to go back three days later, on September 25th, so some friends in Fucheng would have to say hello loudly." Chen Xiuyan asked with a smile, "I wonder what Mr. Tao thinks?"

"Tsk, you've already planned it. How can I feel about it?" Mr. Tao glanced at Chen Xiuyan, "Don't forget my soy milk fried dough sticks for breakfast tomorrow, and I'll have snow jade dumplings for dessert in the afternoon, and I'll have garlic flavor in the evening.

Elbow."
