Chapter 75: Treasured Disciple

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Incense burner was a type of porcelain that tested the skills of a porcelain master. Because it was complicated, many people could not make it well. Those who could make it well were usually experienced masters.

At this moment, a father and daughter walked over.

“Father, big sister is so skillful.” An eight year old Li Family junior pointed at Chu Qingshuang and said to the man beside her.

“She’s indeed skillful. This is the first time I’ve seen such a skillful little girl,” the man said with a smile.

“Father, I’ll be so skillful in the future too,” the little girl said, not to be outdone. Her fair, bun-shaped face was slightly puffed up, making her look especially cute.

“Of course, you are the best.” The man stroked the little girl’s hair and encouraged her.

Under everyone’s admiring gazes, an incense burner identical to the one on the blueprint appeared in Chu Qingshuang’s hand.

Chu Qingzhi glanced at the incense burner and admired Chu Qingshuang’s talent. If she were a cultivator, she would definitely be a master at refining weapons.

Li Zhenzong carefully held the incense burner in his hand and looked at it carefully. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he was. The more he looked, the more excited he became. He was so excited that his body trembled slightly. “Good, good, good…”

Qingshuang’s talent was the best he had seen so far. She had such skills at such a young age. If she was nurtured well, she would definitely become a master in the future.

The heavens had finally sent him a disciple he wanted.

Chu Qingshuang stood up. Her eyes were innocent as she said expectantly, “Master, can you take me in as your disciple?”

Li Zhenzong said without hesitation, “Of course. From now on, you will be my disciple, my only disciple, and my last disciple.”

Chu Qingshuang knelt down. “Master, please accept my bow.”

Li Zhenzong hurriedly helped Chu Qingshuang up. This was his precious disciple. He didn’t want her to get hurt. “Get up, get up. There’s no need for the formalities here. In the future, we will make porcelain together and bring it to greater heights.”

Chu Qingshuang smiled and nodded heavily. “Yes, Master.”

Li Zhenzong was extremely satisfied with Chu Qingshuang. He turned around and said to Chu Qingzhi, “Qingzhi, I plan to hold a banquet to officially acknowledge Qingshuang as my disciple in three days. Go back and tell your parents. When the time comes, come to my house for a meal. We’ll be a family in the future.”

In this era, disciples were not just disciples. They were treated like one’s children. There was also a saying that a teacher for a day was a father for life.

Once they established a master-disciple relationship, the two families would be as close as in-laws.

Chu Qingzhi smiled and agreed. “Yes, Uncle Li.”

Li Zhenzong said happily, “Qingzhi, I’ll bring Qingshuang to familiarize herself with the environment. You guys go do your own things.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded. “I’ll leave my sister to Uncle Li.”

Li Zhenzong promised, “Don’t worry. As long as I’m here, no one will dare to bully Qingshuang.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled. “Sixth Sister, learn from Uncle Li. We’ll leave first.”

Chu Qingshuang hurriedly said, “Fifth Sister, I’ll send you out.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded. “Okay.”

When they arrived outside, Chu Qingzhi gave Chu Qingshuang a few more instructions before leaving.

Chu Qingshuang looked at Chu Qingzhi’s departing figure. Her cat-like eyes were filled with gratitude.

“Fifth Sister, thank you. I’ll definitely make the most exquisite and unique porcelain in the world for you in the future.”

Rong Mansion.

In the courtyard, Rong Yupeng sized up the four men brought in by the servant. “Are they the hooligans from the Chu Village?”

The servant lowered his head slightly and replied, “Young Master, some of them are from the Chu Village, and some of them are from the neighboring village. However, they have one thing in common. They only care about money and are shameless.”

Rong Yupeng looked at the four of them and said, “Are you willing to work for me?”

One of the hooligans said, “Young Master, as long as you don’t ask us to skill someone, we’ll do it.”

Rong Yupeng said, “I won’t ask to kill people. I’m just going to ask you to spread some gossip. There’s no need to spread it too far. It will be enough as long as the people in the Chu Village, the surrounding villages, and the county cities know.”

The hooligan immediately patted his chest and promised, “We’re good at this. Please instruct us, Young Master.”

Rong Yupeng opened his fan and covered his face with it. He explained to the hooligans in a low voice.

When the hooligans heard it, they immediately expressed that they would definitely complete the mission.

A sinister smile appeared on Rong Yupeng’s face.

At Pure and Gentle Women’s Clothing Shop.

Sang Wanlu sent a customer out of the shop and came to the inner room with a piece of paper that recorded the size. “Qingyue, another customer came to customize clothes.”

Chu Qingyue took the paper in her hand. After this period of learning, she had already learned some words. “Wanlu, sit down and rest for a while.”

Sang Wanlu poured a glass of water for Chu Qingyue. “I’m not tired. You’re the one who’s tired. Fortunately, you like to make clothes. If you don’t like it, you’ll go crazy making so many clothes every day.”

Chu Qingyue smiled gently. “The fact that we have so many clothes to make means that our business is good.”

“That’s true.” Sang Wanlu nodded and said, “Qingyue, I have something to do at home. I have to leave early today.”

“It’s fine. I’ll keep an eye on the shop. Go ahead.”

“Then I’ll go first.”

“Okay.”

Chu Qingyue stood up and sent Sang Wanlu out. After watching the carriage leave, she turned around and returned to the shop.

Just as she turned around, she suddenly saw a familiar yet unfamiliar figure.

A young man walked towards the shop with a girl.

When the young man saw Chu Qingyue, he was clearly stunned. However, he composed himself quickly.

Chu Qingyue’s ability to control her emotions was clearly not as good as the man. She looked at the young man in a daze, and tears slowly welled up in her eyes. She looked very pitiful.

The girl’s eyes were attracted by the beautiful dress in the shop and did not notice that something was wrong with the two of them. “How much is this dress?”

Only then did Chu Qingyue come back to her senses. She gently wiped her tears, her eyes filled with confusion.

The man in front of her was the man she had been waiting for. She waited for him from the age of 15 to 18. She did not expect him to marry someone else now.

Why?

If he didn’t want to marry her, he could have told her.. Why did he hide it from her?
