Capítulo 1161: Chapter 1159: The Most Swaggering Apprenticeship in History
Really, comparing people is just like comparing the living to the dead. So many people want to apprentice themselves to Old Mr. ng and can’t, but this little girl actually refused.
That’s right, no matter how tactfully it’s put, everyone can tell that’s a tactful refusal, right?
Wufu received a look from everyone that said she didn’t know what she was doing and calmly drank her tea.
Becoming an apprentice, what a hassle!
Old Mr. ng didn’t expect Wufu to refuse either, but he is a peculiar person. The more you cling to him, the less he wants to bother with you. If you keep your distance, he will insist on bringing you under his wing, just to see what you can do!
So, he gave a cold snort and said, “When I take on a student, I naturally choose the one I like. If I take you on, how much I teach you and how much you learn is all up to your own abilities. As for passing on my skills, what does that have to do with ? I’ve already taken on a disciple; whether my disciple takes on others is your problem. I might not even live long enough to see that day!”
“Don’t worry, sir, you look full of vigor and energy. Living another twenty or thirty years shouldn’t be a problem!” Wufu said.
Old Mr. ng said, “So why are you still standing there? Aren’t you going to pour tea for your master?”
Wufu giggled and asked, “Are you really going to take
as a disciple?”
Old Mr. ng said, “What, you finally find it hard to believe?”
“I can take you as my master.” Wufu said, “But let
make it clear, I am quite busy and may not always be able to stay by your side to learn carving.” As if she’s saying, if you’re willing, we can go ahead with the apprenticeship.
Everyone took a sharp breath.
What a bold statent, what an arrogant tone!
Wanting to beco an apprentice but still setting conditions, is this really how a disciple should talk? Is there such an unfilial disciple? This must be the most arrogant apprenticeship in history.
Wufu really hadn’t thought much about becoming an apprentice, especially in carving. She already had two lifetis of experience as a jade carver. She had learned everything she needed to learn, and taking on a master would rely be a formality. She didn’t need it as a livelihood but as an interest.
Having a master would an one more relationship to handle, and in the future, she would certainly be tied to Ah Jiu, considering Beiyan’s ambitions…
Wufu looked at Old Mr. ng. She didn’t want to hurt this old man. What if she and Ah Jiu stood opposed to Nanyue in the future? What then of this master?
Therefore, she wanted to keep things light in Nanyue, uninterested in forming too deep ties with too many people to avoid future entanglents or being hurt.
Old Mr. ng thought Wufu’s look was a bit complicated and strange, but he couldn’t figure it out then. It wasn’t until many years later that he understood the aning behind that look.
It was about being considerate, not wanting to hurt his old heart.
But at that mont, Old Mr. ng couldn’t foresee it and just thought Wufu was a bit proud, which matched him well because he was also proud.
“Rest assured, I don’t need you to follow
closely,” Old Mr. ng snorted lightly, feeling a bit irritated. Was he really taking on an apprentice, or was it more like this apprentice was harder to deal with than himself, as if he was begging for it.
“In that case, I hope you, sir, won’t regret it in the future,” Wufu solemnly bowed to him.
Old Mr. ng’s mouth twitched, and he gave a heavy snort, pointing his nose to the sky.
With the conversation at this point, Third Old Master Wen had soone bring the tea. Wufu held it up high with both hands above her head, saying, “Disciple Wu Fu, offering tea to my master.”
Everyone watched as she kowtowed three tis loudly, completing the apprenticeship ceremony, witnessing the most arrogant and bold apprenticeship in history.
