Chapter 1058: The Man Comes Riding on a Bamboo Horse (47)
Having gotten what he wanted, Qiu Yang almost immediately decided to spend a lot of money. He ordered Ah Qi to move his things out of Yuan's house and buy a property in Yanzhou Prefecture.
"I need a bigger house with a yard. I want to build a martial arts training ground!" Qiu Yang said firmly, "How can my apprentice practice martial arts in someone else's house? Besides, there is not enough space to learn archery.
Yuan Xu's scholar son-in-law is fine, but my disciple must be able to shoot an arrow through a hundred steps!"
Speaking of Yuan Xu, Qiu Yang added, "Oh, by the way, I'll write a letter to my family and ask them to recommend a reliable gentleman. Martial arts alone aren't enough! Forget about old man Yuan. He himself doesn't understand what's going on in the officialdom!"
"Hey! Master, Master Yuan is actually quite good!" Ah Qi tried to persuade him again, "He did it because..."
"No, he's too pedantic and insidious. If such a good disciple of mine is led astray by him, I will have no place to cry." Qiu Yang firmly disagreed.
Ah Qi had no choice but to do as Qiu Yang instructed.
Not long after moving out of the Yuan family, the house was bought. In order to show that he had a good relationship with his apprentice, Qiu Yang also specially reserved a yard for Xue Yuan.
Yuan Xu did not stop Qiu Yang from moving away. After all, he was a direct descendant of the Qiu family. If he had not had an encounter with him in his early years and he happened to travel here, he would not have guided his son-in-law for a period of time.
However, even though he moved away, Qiu Yang was still willing to fulfill his promise and teach Xiao Jianlu for another two months. Yuan Xu was already very satisfied.
Everyone was happy, except Xiao Jianlu, who felt very aggrieved.
Because besides being despised by Qiu Yang every day, he also has to see Xue Yuan every day - the man who knocked out his back teeth and was engaged to his childhood sweetheart.
The key point is that this person seemed to be born to be his nemesis. When it comes to martial arts, he is always better than him.
Take the simplest archery as an example. Xiao Jianlu has been practicing his arm strength every day recently, and finally he can pull the light bow halfway.
When Xue Yuan arrived, the first bow he tried was a medium-sized iron bow. Not only did he pull the bow to its full length, but his first arrow shot landed steadily on the target. Although it wasn't the center of the target, it didn't miss the target!
Unlike me, I have been learning archery for so long and I don’t even have the chance to practice it.
"Xiao Jianlu, don't be so depressed. Some things require talent." Qiu Yang looked at Xiao Jianlu, who could only draw the bow halfway, and consoled him. "Anyway, you still have two months. My expectations of you are very low. As long as you can draw the bow and shoot the arrow without missing the target, that's all."
Xiao Jianlu: It’s better not to comfort you at all!
Originally thought that Xue Yuan's talent was limited to martial arts, but one day, Xiao Jianlu felt like his world had collapsed.
because
"Ayuan, this is the master I found for you. His name is Lu Feng. He will teach you how to read and write." Qiu Yang pulled Lu Feng in front of Xue Yuan.
Lu Feng is of the same generation as Qiu Yang, but he is about ten years older than him. He was formerly the dean of the Capital Academy, but he retired from the position last year and has been unemployed at home.
When the news of the Qiu family looking for a teacher came out, he felt bored and went to ask about the situation.
The news that Ah Qi sent back was that the person to be taught was the son of the young master of the Xue family, and that the person was in Yanzhou Prefecture, a city he had never set foot in, so he followed him.
At that time, Lu Feng's family was shocked and advised him not to come, after all, this place was a bit far from the capital.
"Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. When I was young, I did not measure the land with my body like my cousin. Now that I am old, I will go to a farther place to take a look. What's wrong with that?" Lu Feng stopped the objections of the people around him with just one sentence.
In fact, when Lu Feng saw Xue Yuan standing in front of him, he was extremely glad for his decision. He never thought that his student would be his cousin's son.
"Qiu Yang, he, he is..." Lu Feng looked at Xue Yuan, who looked like his cousin, and said with a critical tone, "He should be whiter, thinner, and not as tall..."
At the end of his speech, Lu Feng's voice was slightly choked, but in order not to scare the child, he immediately restrained his emotions and said, "Your name is Xue Yuan, right? From now on, you can call me teacher during class, and after class, you can call me uncle.
You see, we are so destined to be together, and we have many similarities in our eyes and eyebrows."
Qiu Yang rolled his eyes at this attempt to cover up his mistake, and then he directly exposed the truth: "We are all relatives, so there is nothing wrong with saying it. Brother Feng, you don't have to worry. Xiaoyuan knows his background, so you can just say you are his uncle."
In fact, the only direct descendant of the Lu family is Xue Yuan’s father Lu Qing, and Lu Feng was adopted from a side branch later.
However, Lu Feng and two other Lu family members from the side branches were raised by their own family when they were very young because they were more talented.
To put it bluntly, he was the one who would assist Lu Qing in the future, but no one expected that he would die so early.
Therefore, later on, Lu Qing's father adopted Lu Feng, who had the best relationship with Lu Qing, so that the direct bloodline of the Lu family could continue.
