Mr. Ma smiled and stroked his beard and greeted Xiao Yao: "Miss Xiao, please sit down and talk." He also sat down, and then explained his purpose.

"In addition to teaching students, I also like to paint a few paintings, especially flowers, birds, insects and fish. Yesterday I went out to do business and went to the city to frame the master's place to frame the paintings that the child took. I saw the master of frame was mounting a book.

The thick "Chinese Herbal Medicine Drawing" was shocking. He hurriedly asked who had done it, and then found Mrs. Xiao's house."

Xiao Yao suddenly said, "So that's it." He smiled and said, "My painting is just to depict herbs, mainly realistic, and Mr. Ma would not praise it like this."

Nowadays, paintings in the painting world are mainly freehand painting. Her realistic style is similar in shape, but she loses the elegance and similarity of freehand painting. She believes that it will not be liked by scholars and doctors and painters.

Mr. Ma quickly waved his hand: "You are too humble." He said this and said in a tone of admiration.

"To be honest, I saw those paintings yesterday and stayed in the store for a day until I finished reading all the paintings before leaving. I tossed and turned at night, thinking about those plants. Your paintings have been used in the apricot forest.

In the above, it is priceless because of its reality.”

Because he was too excited, Mr. Ma simply stood up, stroked his beard and exclaimed while walking,

"From an artistic perspective, the use of light, shadow, three-dimensional and color of each plant is something that has never existed in the painting world today, and it can be said to be the beginning. At the same time, you pour into the various emotions in the plants and injected with 'god',

It has produced aura and aura, separated from the physical but unspised category, and has even raised these paintings to an artistic perspective, and are top-notch!”

The two children who followed Mr. Ma were shocked when they heard that Mr. Ma actually gave Xiao Yao such high evaluations of the paintings.

Mr. Ma’s second disciple Liu Jie, known as Mr. Kuaiyi, was a famous painter in this dynasty, but he has never received such sincere praise or such high praise from Mr. Ma!

This lady Xiao’s painting was actually obtained. Could it be that good?

Xiao Yao didn't expect that his painting would get such a high evaluation. He turned his head and saw Xiao Ping looking at him with a bright look, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Thank you, Mr. Ma, for your love. However, Mr. Ma's praise is really a shame to me.

.”

Mr. Ma smiled and said, "I am not raising love, but telling the truth." He paused and said, "I came here today to ask Miss Xiao for the painting techniques. I wonder if Miss Xiao is willing to teach me?"

Xiao Yao immediately stood up: "Mr. Ma talked about asking for advice, but it really ruined me. I don't know much about paintings, and I hope to communicate what I know with Mr. Ma."

Seeing that Xiao Yao was willing to agree, Mr. Ma immediately thanked him. Then he looked at Xiao Ping sitting beside him and said, "I have already studied this child just now. Seeing that he is flexible in thinking, polite, and has solid knowledge, I want to accept him.

As a disciple, I wonder if Miss Xiao is willing?"

This was definitely an unexpected surprise for Xiao Yao. Because she offended Mr. Yuan, it would be difficult for her to find a good Mr. Xiao Ping again, so the only solution was to move to another city. Now Mr. Ma took the initiative to accept an apprentice

, more useful and timely than timely assistance.

However, she did not agree immediately, but said, "Mr. Ma is willing to accept Ping'er as his disciple. I am extremely grateful and happy. However, everything depends on Ping'er's meaning."

Mr. Ma did not expect Xiao Yao to hand over such a thing to Xiao Ping to decide. He was surprised and very moved.

In this world, I am used to being accustomed to my parents to make decisions. I am so enlightened that Xiao Yao is the only one he has seen in his life.

No wonder such a woman can draw such a high-spirited, casual, open-minded or firm plant.

I just don’t know how Xiao Ping will repay this respectable mother’s enlightenment?

Xiao Ping stood up and said to Xiao Yao: "Mom, I am willing to worship Mr. Ma as his teacher." After that, he immediately walked to Mr. Ma, knelt down and kowtowed a few times, "Mr. is here, please accept the disciple."

One beg."

He was originally unwilling to stay away from Xiao Yao to study outside, but today he was sent out by Mr. Yuan. On his way back, he was shown off twice by Miss Ji in person, so he changed his mind.

He wants to be a son who can bring glory to his mother. He wants to study hard, be a marquis and minister in the future, and let his mother be the wife of the imperial decree that everyone envies!

Xiao Yao laughed and said, "You kid, you need to worship tea when you become a disciple. Get up and pour tea quickly."

Mr. Ma sat on the chair, stroked his beard and looked at Xiao Ping with a smile.

Xiao Ping quickly poured tea and offered tea to Mr. Ma.

Mr. Ma took his apprenticeship tea, took a sip, put it aside, and said with a smile: "The formal apprenticeship ceremony also requires worshiping the throne of Confucius, the most saint teacher, there is no place here. If you go back to the academy, you will go to the academy and pay formal worship again."

He immediately admonished, "You worship me as your teacher and become a scholar. You need to say that you are diligent and hardworking. The most important thing is to keep the world in mind and always remember where you come from. Don't forget where you come from when you are in a high position in the future.

”

Xiao Ping nodded seriously, bowed again and said, "Abide by the teachings of Mr.

Mr. Ma said again: "I am old now and don't want to accept a wide range of disciples anymore. I just want to accept a closed-door professor. Now that I have chosen you, the teaching energy is all on you, so I am extra strict and you must be mentally prepared."

Xiao Ping nodded again and said, "The sword is sharpened by sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. Just keep strict control of me."

After hearing this, Mr. Ma was very satisfied and kept stroking his beard and smiling.

This child is only five years old now, but he already knows that it is really rare to say this.

After Mr. Ma completed the acquisition of apprentices, he took two children away. Before leaving, he told Xiao Yao to take Xiao Ping to Qingshan Academy to become a disciple. He found him, but he didn't know that Xiao Yao was a widow. If he knew, he wouldn't.

I will stay for a long time and cause Xiao Yao's reputation to be damaged.

After Xiao Yao and Xiao Ping saw Mr. Ma away, they all felt that things were unpredictable when they returned home.

I thought I had no way out and could only move my family, but I didn’t expect that a real scholar would come.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yao looked at Xiao Ping seriously and said:

"Pinger, Mr. Ma is a true great scholar, with both knowledge and reputation. If you become his closed disciple, you will meet many people in the future, and you will be a person who has surpassed our identities. I hope you will remember and keep your original intentions in mind.

Don’t feel inferior because you are looked down upon, don’t be arrogant because you are praised, and forget who you are.”

Xiao Ping nodded immediately: "Mom, I know."

On the second day, Xiao Yao prepared gifts such as celery, lotus seeds, red beans, red dates, longans and lean meat strips, packed up Xiao Ping's clothes, pen, ink, paper and ink, and gave them to Xiao Pingdao Qingshan Academy to become a disciple.

Mrs. Ma was also there. After Xiao Ping passed the ceremony of apprenticeship, Mrs. Ma asked Xiao Yao to speak.

Xiao Yao knew that this was arranged by Mr. Ma for his sake, so he did not refuse. He took the opportunity of talking to Mrs. Ma to talk about his painting skills and experience one by one.

After the visit that day, Xiao Yao encouraged Xiao Ping again and asked Xiao Ping to stay and study with Mr. Ma and go back alone.

Instead of going home immediately, she went to the clinic to see the two patients and continued to practice acupuncture.

This time, Xiao Yao's acupuncture was to relax the muscles and activate the meridians, and it was not complicated, but she still applied the acupuncture seriously.

When applying needles, Mr. Zheng, the young man in white, looked at Xiao Yao's face and said, "Miss Xiao seems to be very happy today, but what good thing has he encountered?"

Xiao Yao glanced at him. The man felt quite keen. He smiled and said, "That's right, I'm happy that my son has paid a good sir."

Mr. Zheng then smiled and said congratulations.

But I still feel a little weird in my heart.

Although I saw that Miss Xiao was dressed up as a woman and knew that she had married, it was always difficult to accept that she was a mother when she looked at her face.

Mr. Qi, the young master of Jinyi, also said congratulations.

Xiao Yao thanked the two of them, finished the injection of the needle, and smiled gently and said to them: "Your injuries will be cured, but you don't need to be treated here again. But when you go back, you should avoid not using a knife or a gun.

, avoid getting hurt again.”

When she was treated, she was always very gentle to the patients.

Mr. Qi and Mr. Zheng were stunned at the same time, looking at Xiao Yao's gentle face, unable to speak.

Then Mr. Qi said, "I have asked Baosheng to bring a message to my people. They will come to pick me up later. I am afraid that I will bother Miss Xiao for some time."

Mr. Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "I really have something to do, I will say goodbye in two days."

Xiao Yao nodded: "Yes, it's okay for you to leave. Make a reservation for me. Then I'll give you some pills to take you on the road." After saying that, he saw that it was getting late, so he got up and went back to continue practicing medical skills.

Master Qi and Master Zheng watched Xiao Yao leave, Master Zheng couldn't help but ask Baosheng: "Are your wife always so busy?"

Baosheng nodded: "This is natural. Our ladies need to study medical skills, process medicinal materials, treat patients, and sometimes go up the mountain to collect herbs."

"Just ask some people to collect herbs or buy medicinal materials. If it really doesn't work, you can accept disciples and you don't need to be busy yourself." Mr. Zheng said.

Mr. Qi sat beside him, not speaking, but his eyes showed a look of approval.

Baosheng said: "Our wife has been treating the people freely in the village every day, and she doesn't have much money, so she can't afford to hire people and can't buy medicinal materials often. As for taking disciples, although our wife's medical skills are superb, she is not very famous yet.

No one came to become a disciple of the female doctor.”

When Mr. Zheng and Mr. Qi heard that Xiao Yao often had free medical treatment, they couldn't help but think of her gentle tone after applying the injections to them. They were stunned again. At the end of the time, their eyes flashed.

Niang Xiao is skilled in medical skills. If she is willing to accept disciples, there will be many people under them!

However, it is useless to talk to Baosheng, so I have to talk to Xiao Yao in person.

The two of them thought so in their hearts, and looked at each other at the same time.

Unfortunately, he was cheaper.

Not long after Xiao Yao returned home, Mrs. Xu came to visit, and Dr. Xu followed him - in fact, it was mainly Dr. Xu who was going to come.

Dr. Xu came this time to ask for medical problems that he couldn't understand.

After listening to Xiao Yao's detailed explanation, he nodded, and then said with a little self-deprecatingly: "I am not very talented and have never understood the ancestral medical skills. If Miss Xiao wants to ask me a question, I am afraid I will not be able to answer it."

Xiao Yao smiled and said, "It is enough to be proficient in one aspect." After that, he asked again, "I have read the ancestral medical book of the Xu family, but now I have a request."

Doctor Xu was shocked: "Miss Xiao has finished reading this? What about the essence of needle delivery?"

Xiao Yao said: "I have finished reading it."

Doctor Xu stood up in shock: "Did you understand, have you ever tried to apply acupuncture?"

Xiao Yao nodded again: "I understand it, and I have tried it all. It is indeed a very exquisite method of applying acupuncture."
