Because Yun Jing was still young, he lived directly in the backyard of the Li family, and it was right next to the main house where the master and his wife lived. This not only made it easier to take care of him, but also fully reflected the importance that master Li Qiu attached to him as his apprentice.
.
Yunjing's status in the Li family was equal to that of a young master and a young lady, and with Li Qiu's arrangement, the servants were very polite to him and did not do anything beyond his status as a farmer's son.
Li Qiu told him to just relax in the next few days. As expected, he did not arrange any studies or things for him, leaving him to familiarize himself with the surrounding environment.
The Li family has a dedicated cook, but after Yunjing moved into his house, every meal he ate was cooked by his mistress. Yunjing felt comfortable eating, and his mistress was also very happy. She often said that her children were no longer around when they were older.
In the past, she had never been interested in cooking, so Yunjing's arrival made up for the joy of being a mother.
Their family truly treats Yunjing as their own child.
In the past few days, Yunjing could not see his master Li Qiu except when eating, and did not know what he was busy with. However, he would eat with Yunjing at every meal time and never missed.
Then, Yunjing's three senior brothers and sisters would take him everywhere to play every day, eating delicious food, listening to music, listening to books, watching movies, and watching juggling...
If time hadn't allowed, they would have even wanted to take Yunjing to the county for some fun.
Here, Yunjing really felt as warm as at home. Everyone took good care of him. They probably took into account his emotions of leaving home for the first time when he was young, and they tried their best to make him happy.
Although his master and his family cared for him, Yun Jing still felt a little homesick in the dead of night. He wondered whether his grandfather was weaving bamboo under the moonlight again, whether his mother was still working with a big belly, and whether his father was worried about the paddy fields.
I couldn't sleep due to the situation inside, wondering if Xiao Yundong was being naughty, and wondering who would take care of the big black guy at home.
Obviously Xiaoxi Village is only a few dozen miles away, but Yunjing feels so far away...
The days always passed quickly. Li Qiu said that the day to officially start teaching Yunjing came soon. It was also on the first day of this day that Li Qiu's three children all said goodbye to their parents and left one after another because they had their own lives.
When watching the children leave, the mistress couldn't see their figures and turned around to secretly wipe her tears.
After returning home, Li Qiu first comforted his wife. After she calmed down, he found Yunjing alone.
He handed Yunjing a set of well-fitting coarse cloth clothes and said: "Starting today, my master will officially start teaching you. You put on this suit of clothes and follow me. You don't need to bring anything else."
To be honest, this is completely different from the learning situation Yunjing imagined. I don't understand what kind of medicine Master sells in the gourd, but Master should have his own special way of teaching. Yunjing didn't ask why, so he just followed it, so
I took my coarse clothes and went to my house to change.
It is worth mentioning that in the past few days, Li Qiu specially arranged for a maid aged fifteen or sixteen and a servant in his twenties to serve Yunjing's daily life, but he had never enjoyed this before. He was not used to it.
Normally, he would do all the dressing and washing himself, so the two servants responsible for his daily life were a little uneasy at first, but Li Qiu and the others didn't say anything, so they felt a little relieved and just did some cleaning.
The easy job of running errands.
After more than six years of hard life in this world, Yunjing has long been accustomed to that kind of life. Although everyone at Li Qiu's house tried their best to be nice to him these days, he was still a little uncomfortable. Now he put on
The coarse cloth clothes given by his master actually made him feel more friendly.
After changing clothes, he came to the living room. To Yunjing's surprise, Master Li Qiu himself also changed into a pair of coarse cloth clothes. There were even patches on his clothes. The hosta that usually tied his hair was replaced with a wooden stick. Look.
When you go up, you look like an old farmer in the country.
Seeing Yun Jing change his clothes, Li Qiu stood up, looked at him and said with a smile: "Let's go, come with my teacher. My future teaching will not be in this family. I will tell you in detail later."
Yun Dingding nodded and just listened to him, the master would never harm him.
"Jing'er, come and see Master Niang more often when you have nothing to do. It's not far anyway. If your master is usually too harsh on you, just come and tell Master Niang and I will support you!" Shi Niang, who was in a bad mood because the child left, was already in a bad mood.
After calming down and seeming to know something, she gave instructions when she saw Yun Jing and Li Qiu leaving.
Yunjing looked at his wife and said with a smile: "I can do it. Master, I still want to eat the food you cooked. Now I will go with the master first."
"Hey, okay, come to Master's wife anytime you want to eat," Master's wife seemed to be a little reluctant to say.
Next, Yunjing and Li Qiu, who were dressed in coarse cloth, left his compound on foot, taking nothing but coarse cloth with them.
They walked out of Niujiao Town and walked along a country road for two to three kilometers, and finally stopped when they came to a dilapidated farmyard.
Yunjing was stunned, what kind of trouble is this?
The small courtyard in front of him was even more dilapidated than the home he remembered when he first came to this world. The mud-walled thatched hut was in disrepair, the roof was covered with grass, spider webs were densely covered, and the yard was overgrown with weeds.
.
"Come in with me, master." Li Qiu led Yunjing into the courtyard, walked through the weeds and entered the house.
The light in the room was dim. It hadn't been inhabited for who knows how long, and there was a layer of dust. Li Qiu didn't care. He lifted up a stool that had fallen to the ground, wiped the dust off with his sleeves and sat down.
Then, he pointed to a small wooden box next to him and said: "Xiao Jing, in this box, the teacher has prepared a set of enlightenment books and tools for you, which you will need later. There is a book in it.
Be sure to keep it well, it has been filed. Your future study status, where you studied, and who you studied with will all be recorded on it. It needs to be filed once a year. With this student status, you will have
You are qualified to take the exam, otherwise you can only be a commoner even if you have great knowledge. Then, this student status is extremely important. In the future, no matter where you go, as long as you are still in our Dali Dynasty, you will not need a road guide. You only need to show your student status.
, Also, as long as you pass the exam and have your merit record recorded, you will be exempted from corvee military service. Well, these are still a bit far away for you. Just know it. In short, just remember that your academic status is extremely important."
After hearing this, Yun Jing thought to himself that this is just a portable file. As for the fact that the file will be carried alone, Yun Jing understood after a little thought. There is no network in this world to record a person's past, and he cannot record a person's past anytime and anywhere.
View, scholars carry files with them and can quickly prove their identity wherever they go.
As for whether someone would forge such academic status, Yun Jing thought to himself, let alone whether ordinary people have the courage, just because of the fact that they have been filed, once the review and reconciliation fail, I am afraid that the forger will end up very miserable...
…
"I understand, master, and I will definitely take good care of it," Yunjing said seriously.
Li Qiu nodded and said: "Well, if, I mean if, if the file is lost or destroyed, it can be replaced, but it will be very troublesome. Anyway, just pay attention."
"Yeah." Yun Jing nodded. Knowing the importance of student status, he naturally didn't dare to be careless.
Then, Li Qiu looked at Yun Jing and said with a smile: "Xiao Jing, do you know why my master brought you here?"
Yunjing shook his head, but he had a vague guess about his intention, but he was not sure...
