Chapter 1199: Chapter 1197: Playing the Big Shot
Wufu was unwilling in her heart, but she couldn’t refuse these renowned scholars, so she agreed, taking it step by step. After all, there was no rush to obtain it any ti soon.
"I didn’t expect you, old man, to take a female disciple. What whim is this?" Elder Han looked at Old Mr. ng and said.
Old Mr. ng raised the Small Seal in his hand: "It’s a love for talent. This child can carry on my legacy, right? Besides, aren’t female disciples more obedient than male ones?"
Zhu Zhi, serving by the side, slightly twitched the corner of his mouth. It seems you also said Miss Wufu is more likely to make you angry.
Wufu smiled lightly from beside.
"Before the banquet starts, you younger ones go and talk freely." Old Mr. ng smiled as he spoke to his grandchildren.
For this apprenticeship banquet, Old Mr. ng also invited his favorite legitimate grandchildren, ng Sihao and ng Siyu.
"Master Aunt, this way please." ng Sihao said.
Wufu looked at the gentleman as gentle as jade, with a scholarly air, warm and courteous. His clear and relaxed brows gave a favorable impression at first sight.
And then, there was ng Siyu, similarly refined, even more scholarly than Chen Xian of the scholarly family, standing there with a smile on her lips, relaxed and elegant.
These were truly well-educated sons and daughters of a notable family, calm and poised in every gesture. Without careful guidance, such talent would not erge.
Only that title of Master Aunt... sounds quite awkward!
"Young Master ng, just call
Wufu." Wufu said.
"You are grandfather’s disciple, equivalent to father’s sister, worthy of the title Master Aunt." ng Sihao replied with a smile.
Wufu looked at Old Mr. ng, who said, "It’s just a title. You youngsters can use whatever feels natural."
Wufu then said, "In that case, let’s use seniority by age."
"Then I should call you Sister Wufu." ng Siyu said with a smile.
"Sister ng, Big Brother ng." Wufu also addressed with a smile.
The younger ones chatted together.
The ng family’s upbringing was excellent. ng Sihao, though only eighteen years old, had already attained the status of Juren. He was well-read but not the type of bookworm who only reads dead text, following the principle that traveling thousands of miles is more valuable than reading thousands of books. Thus, he was broad-minded, making his conversation humorous and witty.
Though Wufu had been in this world only for over a year and hadn’t read much, her knowledge from two lifetis was considerable, and she had seen much more. She was adept at pretending, impressing the younger teens thoroughly with curiosity about what she talked about.
Shortly afterwards, Zhu Zhi approached Wufu: "Miss, the gentleman calls you over."
Wufu smiled and nodded to ng Sihao and ng Siyu, then left.
"Brother, what do you think of her?" ng Siyu asked after Wufu left.
ng Sihao replied: "Soone grandfather favors naturally has her abilities."
"But I’ve heard her background isn’t prominent."
ng Sihao looked at his sister and said: "Little sister, our ng family does not need factions, and precisely because of this, we’ve maintained our legacy for two hundred years through several dynasties unchanged. So, her background has little relation to us or the ng family."
"Brother’s right. I feel that although her background isn’t prominent, her breadth of knowledge rivals even brother’s!" ng Siyu said with a smile: "Brother, do you think there’s really soone who can fly in the sky?"
ng Sihao chuckled. He wanted to know too.
