Chapter 18
Ning Wanzhu came to the old man Du and looked up at the old man, only to see surprise and tears in his eyes.Ning Wanzhu was suddenly moved.

Since rebirth, Ning Wanzhu's biological father, Ning Yu, has rarely asked Ning Wanzhu. He decided to send this biological daughter to this remote and remote village. For such a long time, he never heard that his father thought of him.However, Ning Wanzhu couldn't hate her biological father, but her heart was always full of loss, and she yearned for the love and care that a father should give.

However, the old man Du opposite was an old man who lost his beloved daughter and spent long years in solitude.When he saw Ning Wanzhu go and come back, he couldn't help but burst into tears.Ning Wanzhu is short in stature, not as tall as the old man's chest. At this time, she only gently tugged at the corner of the old man's clothes, turned her face up, looked at the old man's face with a pair of big eyes like spots of paint, and at the same time used her The soft and waxy child's voice said: "Grandpa Du, don't be sad anymore!".

At this time, the old man Du squatted down, his eyes happened to be on Ning Wanzhu's level, he couldn't help putting his hands on Ning Wanzhu's shoulders, and said, "Okay, grandpa listens to you, grandpa won't cry!" As she spoke, tears fell like beads with a broken thread.

Ning Wanzhu panicked, and quickly took out her small cotton handkerchief from her arms, intending to hand it to Old Man Du to wipe away her tears.Unexpectedly, old man Du hugged her gently, and immediately put Ning Wanzhu on his shoulder.

The old man Du let Ning Wanzhu sit on his shoulder, and he turned around, came to the slightly desolate tomb, and said softly: "Ah Ruo, this little girl looks so similar to you, Ah Ruo, look Your father is living a lonely life. He was sent down from the sky to accompany your father! In fact, your father is fine. He just wants to know if you are lying on the cold ground alone, are you having a hard time? Could it be? Just like Dad, I feel too lonely..."

Ning Wanzhu sighed in her heart. Hearing what the old man said, the girl named Du Ruo should have passed away long ago, not just missing as people said.

"Ah Ruo, father saw that this little girl was as smart as you when she started to draw. Although she didn't know how to use a branding pen very much, she finally understood and understood it. Father intends to pass on all this ability to her. She." Old Man Du continued.

When Ning Wanzhu heard this, she finally understood that it was probably God's will in the dark. This old man Du's daughter, Du Ruo, was also a girl who was quite savvy and capable of pyrography.And the branding pen I got was what Miss Du Ruo used during her lifetime.The old man Du also saw himself that day, and felt that he was somewhat similar to Miss Du Ruo, so he acquiesced in taking the branding pen away, and Ning Wanzhu himself had the opportunity to try the skill of pyrography.

"Father promises you that when there are successors to this skill of father, father will go underground to accompany you, okay?" Old man Du made a promise to the lonely cemetery.But Ning Wanzhu felt that her face was wet, and after wiping it, she found it was full of tears.

When the old man Du left the clearing in the forest step by step, he returned to his hut.He first put Ning Wanzhu off his shoulders, then went to clean up the table in the corner of the room, packed out a whole set of big and small branding pens, then turned to look at Ning Wanzhu, and asked in a deep voice: "Ning Wanzhu Girl, do you want to learn the art of pyrography from me?"

Ning Wanzhu bowed respectfully in front of the old man Du, knelt down and kowtowed three times, and said: "A teacher for a day, a father for life, Ning Wanzhu is willing to worship Grandpa Du as a teacher, please allow me to replace sister Du Ruo , to serve you..."

Before she could finish her words, the old man Du had already rushed over, helped her up, and said, "How dare you do this, I accept you as an apprentice because of your outstanding aptitude. It’s just an inheritance!” He sighed and said: “This is my unfulfilled wish, if it wasn’t for this wish, I’m afraid I would have gone underground with Ah Ruo.”

When the old man Du said this, his expression was quite dignified, and he suddenly said very seriously: "Learning this pyrography is very hard, and if you don't pay attention, you may hurt yourself. In summer, it will be even more hard. Do you have to eat these things?" Bitter preparations?"

Ning Wanzhu's expression froze, knowing that the old man Du was really planning to teach her the technique of pyrography, she couldn't help being very grateful, and immediately responded loudly: "Wanzhu has been prepared for a long time! I can suffer any hardship." Zhang Xiao's face was filled with determination.

Two hours later, Ning Wanzhu and Mo Mei came out of Old Man Du's small room.There was an extra bag on Mo Mei's back, and there were some different kinds of branding pens in it.Mo Mei was very puzzled, and asked: "Miss, are you really determined to learn this pyrography? I find it very complicated and troublesome!"

Ning Wanzhu smiled and said to Mo Mei: "It's the same as you learn Kung Fu. I think learning this is very interesting!" Mo Mei has Kung Fu, and she goes to the yard to practice boxing every morning , This is something that the entire Ning family knows.

The two talked about it, and after turning a corner, they saw a familiar figure waiting beside the road.

"Brother Dayong?" Seeing Ning Dayong looking at the two of them at a loss, Ning Wanzhu suddenly understood, and said, "You have been waiting here for us?"

"Yes... yes!" Ning Dayong said eagerly, "I'm a little worried..."

Ning Wanzhu now understands Ning Dayong's intentions. Last time she and Mo Mei went to see the old man Du and had a very unpleasant quarrel. This time when she went out by herself, although she didn't call Ning Dayong, Ning Dayong treated her very well. Xin, so he followed from a distance, and when he saw himself and Mo Mei entering the mountain courtyard, he waited from a distance, for fear that something would happen to Ning Wanzhu.

Ning Wanzhu was very grateful and couldn't help saying: "Brother Dayong, in the future, will you always protect me?"

Ning Dayong's face turned red immediately, and he said in a low voice, "It is right to protect...to protect the young lady of the master's family."

Mo Mei spat at the side: "Miss said that, she wants you to be loyal, you don't know how to be loyal... It is only good for the young lady, if others want to do bad things to the young lady, even if he is another master of the Ning family, you will Only protect Miss!"

Only then did Ning Dayong understand.He raised his head and saw Ning Wanzhu smiling slightly, looking up at himself.Ning Dayong couldn't help feeling hot in his chest, nodded and said: "I only protect Miss!"

When Mo Mei heard this, she immediately yelled and said, "Ah, you boy, you only protect the young lady. If your sister Mo Mei has something to do, what should you do? You don't care about it, you say, you Said..." As he spoke, he chased after him and wanted to fight.Ning Wanzhu couldn't help but smile, Ning Dayong is the most honest and sincere character, while Mo Mei has a more detached personality.Fortunately, both of them are very good to themselves.

From this day on, Ning Wanzhu devoted herself to studying and mastering the techniques of pyrography.She would go to Old Man Du's place roughly every three days, and show him the pyrography works she made to Old Man Du for guidance.Old man Du never kept any secrets, he gave all his money, but he was not polite at all. He had extremely strict requirements on Ning Wanzhu, and if he failed to meet any requirements, he would ask Ning Wanzhu to start all over again.

Ning Wanzhu knew that Old Man Du's request was for her own good, so she could only be grateful.Therefore, she worked meticulously to fulfill all the requirements of Old Man Du.Fortunately, it's November, so even if you order charcoal pyrography, it won't be too hot.Therefore, in just a few days, Ning Wanzhu was able to burn some extremely small paintings independently.

But in this way, Ning Wanzhu's daily calligraphy and reading time was taken up a lot.Once Aunt Shao came over to check Ning Wanzhu's homework, but Ning Wanzhu couldn't hand it in.Aunt Shao went to look for Nanny Ye, and said to Nanny Ye: "Second Young Miss has been neglecting her homework recently, I'm afraid that she won't be able to do business with the master because of this. I'm afraid that she may not be able to return to Nanyang City during this New Year's Eve." I've been there!"

After hearing this, Mother Ye pinned an embroidery needle in her hand to the embroidery frame, looked up at Aunt Shao, and said, "I see that Aunt Shao seems to have the ability to foretell, as if she knew that Second Miss Ning was going to be in this village. Like last year?"

Aunt Shao was suffocated when she heard this, she pretended not to understand, and asked Mother Ye, "What do you mean?"

Mother Ye smiled and said, "I don't mean anything. At the beginning, the master and madam didn't say anything about the Second Miss coming to the Zhuangzi, and the Second Miss didn't really commit any heinous crime. Could it be true? Do you want the second lady to copy two hundred pieces of "Women's Precepts" and "Women's Rules"? To get the second lady back to the city, in fact, you only need a word. So I said, if you don't know the foretelling, I'm afraid you have already made plans. During the Chinese New Year, I want to keep Second Miss in this village!"

When Aunt Shao heard this, she became angry for a while.

And Mother Ye went on to say: "So, Aunt Shao, sometimes I wonder if this second lady is from you. At first, I only thought that you wanted a girl to be a phoenix, and you are especially good at disciplining second lady." Strict, but now I look at it coldly, why do I feel that you are sometimes quite difficult!"

Aunt Shao's complexion immediately changed, and after a while, she typed the manuscript again, and said slowly to Nanny Ye: "I also feel sorry for Second Miss, and we get along day and night in this Zhuangzi, and Second Miss can be taken care of by me personally. Wouldn't it be better than going back to the Nanyang mansion, where there are many red tapes and rules every day?"

This Aunt Shao was beaten by Ye Momo, she suddenly changed her appearance in front of people, she began to warm up to Ning Wanzhu, and even made soup for Ning Wanzhu herself.But Ning Wanzhu had a lesson from the past. She accepted all the drinking water sent by Aunt Shao in person, and then quietly poured it out afterwards.

But the news that should come is still to come.On this day, Mo Lan suddenly rushed into Nanny Ye's room, found Ning Wanzhu, hugged her and cried bitterly in public.
