My apprentice is not easy

Chapter 307
The atmosphere of the New Year is always very lively.

In the past, as a loner, Shen Ling could only watch other people having fun.

This year, the shop has more apprentices, and one who refuses to leave, and finally has the atmosphere of the year.

Shen Ling happily watched the disciples quarrel for a few days before driving them away and letting each of them go about their own business.

Except for the second apprentice.

The free meal ticket finally came back, but I can't leave easily.

"Master, look at my beast farm, how are you doing?"

In the wooden box with the length and width of the arms, hundreds of beasts with different looks and races stood in it.

Shen Ling glanced over casually.

Then I was a little surprised.

It's been a while, the carving level of these two apprentices has improved by leaps and bounds!
But there are still some shortcomings.

Shen Ling moved a chair and sat down, and picked up some of the wood carvings.

"Hey, these details are not handled well, you can see for yourself."

Shi Heng stretched out his hand to pick it up, and after that, he also realized his problem.

The carving knife in his hand turned, planning to adjust it.

Shen Ling smiled.

"It's okay for you to pay attention to the whole, but remember that the whole is made up of individuals, and the overall effect can only be better if the details are drawn."

Shi Heng nodded.

"Okay master, I will write it down!"

After speaking, he raised the carving knife in his hand, thought for a while, but did not drop the knife.

It's not that I don't want to do it, but that my spiritual power has been exhausted before.

Shi Heng lowered his hands and looked at his master.

"I need to adjust my status."

Shen Ling waved her hands and leaned back on the chair back.

"Take your time, what's the hurry?"

Shi Heng put down the carving knife, thought for a while, and approached Shen Ling.

Before he could speak, he felt the sudden cold gaze.

He was silent for a moment and chose to ignore it.

"Master, I have a question, it's not on the carving..."

There was some hesitation in his words.

Shen Ling suddenly became curious.

"what is the problem?"

Shi Heng thought about it and decided to start from the beginning.

"Before, when the master arranged a task for me and my brother, I brought back a child..."

Shen Ling: "..."

Child?What?Why didn't she make it?
Shen Ling recalled it for a while, at that time the second apprentice seemed to come back with a little white fox in his arms.

But after that, she never saw the little fox again.

Could it be that……

It's reasonable, the second apprentice of my family is not human in the first place!
So Shen Ling continued to listen.

Shi Heng seemed a little embarrassed, and couldn't help lowering his voice.

"Master, do you know how to raise a child?"

Hearing this, Shen Ling was stunned.

If it was before, how could she say a word or two?
just now……

"Sorry, I don't know."

Shen Ling's tone became heavier, with a hint of gnashing of teeth.

Shi Heng blinked, feeling something was wrong.

"Master, you..."

Shen Ling sighed.

"To be honest, your master and I once raised a child, but...it was a failure!"

A certain failure who came over not long ago and was standing behind the two of them: ? ? ?

Shen Ling looked ahead and shook her head, then sighed again.

Then he raised his hand and patted his second apprentice on the shoulder.

"Master doesn't have much advice for you, just one point, don't spoil the child, when it's time to spank, you have to spank!"

Shen Ling gritted her teeth even more for the last word.

In the next second, a voice came from behind.

"Lingling..."

Shen Ling was taken aback, and her angry expression instantly went blank.

He almost blurted out a national curse, but thinking about his apprentice being here, he forced himself to hold back.

She took a deep breath and looked back at the person coming.

"When did you come?"

"It's been a while."

"Ang, I didn't hear anything, shouldn't I?"

"...I should have heard it all."

"Then, why don't you just forget about it?"

"It feels like I can't forget it."

Shen Ling was speechless.

After being silent for a breath or two, he suddenly stood up from the chair.

"Suddenly remembered something, I went back to the house."

After speaking, he took some eager steps and left here.

Shen Qinghe didn't rush to follow.

A comfortable smile appeared on his face, and he said to the confused Shi Heng.

"Thank you!"

He finally knew what was wrong with Lingling during this time.

She remembered everything in the past, but still acquiesced that he stayed in the shop.

This meant that she had... forgiven his mistake.

However, an apology is still necessary.

Shen Qinghe suppressed her happiness, and left with Shenling's pace.

Shi Heng was left with question marks all over his face.

And there is a faint, bad feeling.

……

After the new year, in the capital of Wu Country, the lively atmosphere has not yet faded, and people from all walks of life have already rushed to their posts again.

After all, not long ago, Kyoto encountered a catastrophe.

Many houses collapsed or were even razed to the ground.

Even with the help of practitioners and funding from the imperial court, it will take a lot of time to rebuild to the previous level.

The Sixth Prince's Mansion was completed not long ago and restored to its former style.

But some lost things, such as jewelry and money, can no longer be recovered.

It was noon at this time, after Lin Qingwan had practiced the sword technique, she walked out of her residence to look for Li Xin.

It's time for dinner, it's time to ask His Highness the Sixth Highness to have dinner together.

Her residence is not far from where Li Xin lives, but the time has already arrived.

However, before she could go in, Li Xin walked out with a cold face and striding out.

Seeing her, I controlled my emotions a little bit.

"I have something to do, you can find the butler yourself, and he will arrange meals."

After speaking, continue to walk outside.

Lin Qingwan blinked and followed.

"What's the matter? Do you need my help?"

Li Xin shook his head.

"Thank you, but no need."

"Oh……"

Lin Qingwan stopped while answering.

His gaze fell on Li Xin's clenched fist.

After thinking about it, he stepped forward again.

"Let me go with you, in case someone needs help, I can do it too."

Li Xin turned his head and glanced at her, then quickly looked away.

But he didn't refuse any more.

The two left the Sixth Prince's Mansion one after the other, and when they went out, they saw that the housekeeper had already prepared the carriage.

Li Xin advanced, and Lin Qingwan followed.

After sitting down, Lin Qingwan's attention was on Li Xin.

Li Xin closed his eyes, still clenched his fists tightly, breathing slightly heavily.

It seems to be suppressing something.

Lin Qingwan was a little worried.

But I also know that this time is not the time to ask.

He could only suppress everything and stay quietly.

After the two of them sat firmly, the carriage started to move forward with a rumble.

Lin Qingwan observed the place through the curtain of the carriage.

Then he watched as the carriage passed through the crowd and stopped outside the palace.

Although she also entered the palace when the monsters attacked last time, the palace now is different from that at that time.

The palace people who were sent out came back again, the emperor is also in the palace!
