Dominate the ancient academy

Chapter 133 The Road to Fortune

The dean specially selected a day off so that Shu Xiaoxiao's classmates and friends could also attend. Su Shiche, Shen Guanqing and others even ran to the general's residence to congratulate him the day before. They had a lot of fun together and drove away the little bit of nervousness that Shu Xiaoxiao had left. These people were very loyal.

With her mother and brother and sister-in-law around, Shu Xiaoxiao only needed to provide someone for the apprenticeship gift, and the day of the apprenticeship soon arrived.

As the saying goes, 'Once a teacher, always a father', so now becoming a disciple is a very serious and solemn matter. Its importance may sometimes be even more important than getting married. After all, you can only have one teacher in your lifetime, but you can have several wives.

Many people were surprised that Master Chu accepted a disciple this time, but they still had to participate, and Shu Xiaoxiao once again dominated the news circle in Kyoto.

It may be that Master Chu has great appeal, or it may be that everyone wants to see what Lord Yongle, who was first conferred a title and then accepted as a disciple by Master Chu, looks like, so there are a lot of people participating in the apprenticeship ceremony.

This made Shu Xiaoxiao, who claimed to have seen big scenes, a little nervous. Fortunately, everyone was just curious. With the presence of Principal Chu and two heavyweight senior brothers, most people congratulated with smiles on their faces, and no one would be so blind as to make trouble at this time.

Facing the envious eyes of the crowd, the ceremony of becoming a disciple officially began.

Although the process of becoming an apprentice is not very complicated, it does involve many steps. Fortunately, her elder brother Shu Tingyu had discussed the process with her in advance. Shu Xiaoxiao followed the master of ceremonies and completed all the steps meticulously step by step, and the apprenticeship was completed.

Master Chu led his apprentices and began to recognize them on the surface, but in fact he was showing off and accepting gifts. These people may not understand why he accepted apprentices now, but in retrospect, they will be envious.

Shu Xiaoxiao followed her teacher and received so many gifts that she was almost overwhelmed.

Thinking about the various gifts received today, Shu Xiaoxiao felt for some reason that she seemed to have found a way to get rich again. If she could worship a master a few more times in the future, getting rich would be just around the corner!

Shu Xiaoxiao shook her head and tried hard to drive the newly discovered way to wealth out of her mind. Firstly, there were not many people as capable as Master Chu, and secondly, there were many masters, and it would be terrible if they all came with books and asked her to learn.

After the apprenticeship ceremony, Master Chu drank a little too much and could hardly stand. He even pulled his two older disciples to ask for gifts from his younger disciple.

The Sixth Prince looked at his master who was tugging at his sleeves and pretended to be disappointed and said, "Master, now that we have a junior brother, do we fall out of favor?"

Headmaster Chu rolled his eyes and said, "You have long lost favor with me. Your ideas are bigger than mine. I like your junior brother more. You are also my senior brothers. Hurry up and bring out the gift."

The Sixth Prince didn't take his master's complaints seriously and took out a gift that he had prepared long ago: "I have heard of your name, Junior Brother. This is a gift from you. If you encounter any problems in the future, although I am not as useful as you, Second Brother, I will not let outsiders bully you."

Shu Xiaoxiao looked at the token in her hand, feeling a little confused?

The Sixth Prince explained: "This is the token from Senior Brother's house. With this token, you can enter the house directly without reporting."

This gift is not light! Unless you are someone you recognize, you can't even get the token, especially for someone like the Sixth Prince. This is not only a token, but also the Sixth Prince's trust.

Shu Xiaoxiao dared to say that the eldest senior brother’s brothers probably didn’t have it.

"Thank you, senior brother. I will definitely keep it well." This is the senior brother's trust in her, she will definitely keep it well.

"Once it's given to you, it's yours. Don't be so careful. I trust you." The master and the second junior brother often said good things about this younger junior brother in front of him.

Forget about the master, even the second junior brother did not deny it. In addition, he knew something about Master Wuyou's comments, so he was still willing to protect the master's novice junior brother.

What's more, this token was specially made for his junior brother alone. It would be useless to others, so he had nothing to worry about.

The Sixth Prince looked at his junior brother's happy expression and continued, "Father, a few days ago, I got some peppers. They are spicy, fragrant and delicious, and can stimulate your appetite. I heard that they were grown by my junior brother?"

The Sixth Prince asked expectantly. Some time ago, an indescribable fragrance suddenly came from his father's palace. Although he had never smelled that fragrance before, it was extremely attractive. He asked several times before his father told him that it was chili peppers.

His father hid it like a treasure, and he tasted it just for the sake of his mother. After that, his father ate it all by himself.

Later he found out that the chili peppers came from his junior fellow apprentice, so he prepared this gift very carefully.

Shu Xiaoxiao's smile disappeared immediately.
