Chapter 704 Apprenticeship

Ouyang Hu took a bite of the bacon sesame pancake. The charred aroma of the pancake and the mellow aroma of the bacon blended together, making him squint his eyes: "You invited me to have breakfast, so I'll just go and have a look at it."

Zheng Qing was very happy and walked towards Brother Cheng: "Brother Cheng."

Brother Cheng heard Zheng Qing's voice, wiped his tears and replied: "Brother Qing, why are you here?"

After seeing Ouyang Hu, he saluted him from a distance: "Hello, Grandpa Ouyang."

Gu Jinan also saluted Ouyang Hu: "Mr. Ouyang."

It was an unexpected surprise to meet Ouyang Hu here.

Ouyang Hu shook the bacon biscuits in his hand at him and said with a smile, "You brothers are good too."

Going closer, he praised again: "Your Yanfu ham is really delicious, and it has the reputation of being the best delicacy in the world. It's just that one piece is too expensive, and I don't want to eat more."

Gu Jinan said: "If Mr. Ouyang likes it, Brother Cheng and I will send you some someday."

How many? The younger generation is really generous with his actions. This is because he has something to ask for.

Ouyang Hu refused: "Ham is a treasure. I have said it a long time ago. One or two of the treasures are enough, but more will not be beautiful."

He then asked, "This is Xia Gu's village. What are you doing in his village? This old man ran away from Chu after getting into trouble, and did not dare to come back until Emperor Jingwu was in power. He is really an irresponsible rat."

Ouyang Hu did not hide his dissatisfaction with Xia Gu at all, and he would be dissatisfied with Xia Gu. First, Xia Gu was good friends with Mr. Zhan San, and Mr. Zhan became famous by scolding his eldest brother. The second is that he doesn't like madmen, thinking that they are a group of lunatics who only make trouble.

Brother Cheng looked at Ouyang Hu and said, "Although Xia Gu is not a good person, he taught me for three years."

Ouyang Hu said: "Then you were not taught badly by him. You are really a good boy with a tough mind."

Ouyang Hu is not a madman, nor is he a pedantic scholar. Unlike his elder brother Ouyang Hong, he is a person who believes in revenge and kindness. Therefore, he does not think that Brother Cheng is a white-eyed wolf. Instead, he feels that he knows how to be grateful and is grateful. Know how to be far away from the villain.

Gu Jinan couldn't suppress his excitement when he saw that Ouyang Hu liked Brother Cheng so much. He bowed deeply to Ouyang Hu and begged: "Mr. Ouyang, I have the courage to ask you to accept my younger brother as your disciple."

Ouyang Hu raised his gray eyebrows and said, "I have known for a long time that you are not well-meaning, but I just want to travel around the world and eat delicious food, and I have never thought about taking on a disciple."

Moreover

You are just asking for a master for your brother. Dont you want to become my teacher? I am also a famous bachelor in Da Chu. Ouyang Hu heard that Gu Jinan did not become a teacher, but just studied with a country scholar.

Gu Jinan shook his head: "Wansheng doesn't want to, Wansheng already has the best candidate for his master in his heart."

Ouyang Hu: "Oh, who is it? More powerful than me?"

Gu Jinan smiled and said: "It's Shang Xiucai. Uncle Shang is not better than Mr. Ouyang, but he is my master. It's just that Uncle Shang wants me to become a famous teacher to protect my career. But whether my career will be smooth depends on my own ability." , although there are connections to help from famous teachers, its hard to find a teacher like my father, so I just want to be my teacher to Uncle Shang.

Ouyang Hu looked at Gu Jinan with admiration. The two Gu family members were both good people, which showed that the Gu family's family tradition was as good as that of a famous family.

Because of Gu Jinan's words, Ouyang Hu decided to give Cheng Ge'er a chance: "Little guy, do you want to be a madman?"

Brother Cheng's little body trembled when he heard it, and he shook his head hurriedly: "Don't think about it, don't think about it."

Hearing the word "crazy man" reminded him of his uncles and nephews from the Zhan family, and he became frightened.

Ouyang Hu laughed when he heard this: "Why don't you want to? The literati of Great Chu all regard madmen as their teachers and are proud to be madmen. Don't you want to become a madman and stand on the top of the scholar forest and overlook the entire literati of Great Chu?"

Cheng Geer said: "Crazy people are too casual and do things based on madness. Many times they will mess up a matter that was originally easy to solve, and they are too selfish. Cheng Geer still prefers pragmatic literati. , just like Uncle Shang...well, Xu Tongsheng also counts."

He added: "Although ordinary literati are not from aristocratic families, they are using their own skills to preach and gain knowledge in the countryside, so that more people can read and more people from poor families can become officials in high schools. Although literati from poor families are weak, they can If all the scribes from poor families were united, they would be able to compete with the aristocratic families..."

Brother Cheng, shut up! Gu Jinan scolded him quickly: You are allowed to say such things, and you are not allowed to say them again in the future.
