It was a sunny day, and Gu Qingyan miraculously woke up early. Han Yan hadn't come yet. Gu Qingyan didn't see anyone when she opened her eyes, which was a bit uncomfortable.

Su Xin came over and teased Gu Qingyan that she was relying on Master Han.

"You're the one with a bad mouth, come here and change." Gu Qingyan didn't give her a chance to interrupt.

He got up and changed his clothes freely. Today was an important day - Zong Yue accepted a disciple, and Gu Qingyan dressed more formally.

Su Xin held up two masks and asked Gu Qingyan which one she wanted to wear. Gu Qingyan saw that one of them was designed by Han Yan, and remembered that day when they were joking about the mask, Han Yan didn't praise it very much, and she didn't know the reason.

She simply chose this mask again today. She wanted to see how long Han Yan could hold it in.

Su Xin put on the mask for Gu Qingyan with an expression that she had expected, and then helped Gu Qingyan to go to the courtyard.

Gu Qingyan has discovered the beauty of the outside since the day she was able to get out of bed. She would walk around in the courtyard when she had nothing to do, or drag Su Tanxue to walk around in the valley, which was her own fun.

When Han Yan came, he saw Gu Qingyan sitting on the swing under the tree. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he was just looking at it in a daze.

He walked towards him and Gu Qingyan didn't notice him at all. It wasn't until darkness fell in front of him that he realized Han Yan was coming.

He consciously moved his position to one side, leaving the other side free for Han Yan, who took advantage of the situation and sat down.

"Isn't it cold?" Han Yan asked Gu Qingyan, her little face turned a little red.

Gu Qingyan shook her head: "It's not cold, can you start swinging?"

She is injured now, so she can be as lazy as she wants, but Han Yan is free to let her do whatever he wants, as long as she is happy, and he will pamper her.

Without answering, he just started swinging gently.

He remembered that there was also a swing in the backyard of the villa, and that swing could swing very high. When Gu Qingyan went to the villa when she was a child, if she couldn't find anyone, she could just go to her grandma's house or the swing to find her.

At that time, Gu Qingyan would feel very happy when she played on the swing. Now when Han Yan looked at Gu Qingyan's profile, it was enough to see the raised corners of her mouth and the light in her eyes.

Su Xin and Su Tanxue saw this scene when they came out of the kitchen.

Han Yan was pushing the swing from behind, and Gu Qingyan was as happy as a child. She was laughing and playing, while Han Yan was watching from behind.

The sun was shining down, making the two people look a little dreamy.

A figure also appeared in Su Tanxue's mind, and she seemed to see that person pushing her on the swing...

"Exploring the snow, Su Xin."

Gu Qingyan turned around and saw the two of them. She wanted to get off the swing, but Han Yan stopped the swing. Gu Qingyan jumped down in a hurry, but couldn't stand firm for a moment.

Seeing this, Han Yan hurriedly stepped forward to catch Gu Qingyan. Gu Qingyan threw her head in her arms, which made the two people watching feel embarrassed.

"It hurts, why is it so hard!" Gu Qingyan knocked Hanyan's chest, feeling that her head hurt.

Han Yan helped Gu Qingyan rub his head. You couldn't blame him, but he couldn't say anything. He could only say: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Pushing Han Yan away, Gu Qingyan said, "I forgive you." If Han Yan hadn't caught her just now, she would have been injured both new and old.

Several people entered the house, and Gu Qingyan asked Su Tanxue: "Tanxue, why did you come out of the kitchen?"

Su Xin was laying out the bowls and chopsticks and said, "Today's breakfast was made by Miss Tanxue."

It turned out that Su Tanxue and Shen Sanniang had learned a lot of pastry-making skills in the past few days, and wanted to practice their skills with breakfast. She got up early today, went to the small kitchen, made some porridge, and made steamed buns.

Su Xin scooped out a bowl of porridge for everyone. Gu Qingyan was afraid that it would be hot, so Su Xin scooped out less porridge so that it would cool down faster.

Han Yan joked on the side: "I'll teach you a faster way. Take it outside, wait for a few minutes, and then it won't be hot when you bring it in."

Gu Qingyan thought it was a good idea at first, but when she heard this, she rolled her eyes at Han Yan and said, "How about you go?"

Han Yan chuckled. Although he didn't take out the porridge, he gave the stuffed bun wrapper to Gu Qingyan.

Gu Qingyan has a problem with eating big meat buns. If Shen Sanniang hadn't made the fillings, Gu Qingyan would not eat the fillings but only the skin.

Su Tanxue didn't know about this, so she was a little surprised when she saw Han Yan's action, but later she explained it to her sincerely.

It's just that Han Yan's skillful movements were something that even Su Xin didn't expect. Not many people knew about Gu Qingyan's problem, except Su Xin, Beiming and Shen Sanniang, that is, Xu Shaolin, Zong Yue, Baili Mo and Gu Ning. They got it.

Gu Qingyan herself was puzzled: "How do you know that I only eat the skin of meat buns and not the fillings?"

Han Yan looked at his skillful movements and couldn't help but smile. This was really the first time he had done this.

After hearing Gu Qingyan's question, she thought about it carefully, and then said: "It should be that one time you went to the villa, and we took you down the mountain to do errands in the early morning. On the way, you said you were hungry, and we ate at a stall. You ordered the meat buns and you didn't eat them. You just drank the soy milk. It was Mo who helped you get out the meat fillings and gave you the skin, so you ate them."

Han Yan remembered it quite clearly, which made Gu Qingyan's affection for him rise silently.

Su Xin directly gave Han Yan a thumbs up. She really didn't expect that Young Master Han had been paying attention to everything about Gu Qingyan a long time ago without knowing it.

Su Tanxue looked at these small interactions, and felt both sweet and sour in her heart. The shadow of a person kept appearing in her heart. I wonder how he is now? Is he okay? Has he ever thought of himself for a moment? ?

Su Tanxue was lost in thought. Gu Qingyan elbowed Hanyan and asked him with her eyes: What's wrong with Tanxue?

Han Yan also shook his head in confusion.

Gu Qingyan: Why don’t you care?

Han Yan looked at Gu Qingyan and said, "I'm not too busy caring about you."

In the quiet air, the two people were making selfless eye contact, one person was in a daze in silence and didn't know what to think, and only Guoer and Su Xin were left looking at each other, not knowing what was going on.

"cough!"

Su Xin coughed violently. If she didn't cough, the breakfast would not go on.

The three people came to their senses and stopped talking as if they had made an appointment. They ate in silence and ended the breakfast in a strange atmosphere.

Zong Yue came over to check on Qing Yan as usual. Now he only needs to check her pulse: "It seems that you have recovered well recently."

In the past three or four days, Gu Qingyan's complexion has really improved a lot.

"Second brother, I can move now. Can I go to Shimen to see Beiming and the others?" Gu Qingyan asked pitifully.

She had wanted to go for a long time, but Zong Yue always used various excuses to prevent her from going, so she had no choice but to be obedient.

Seeing her like this, Zong Yue couldn't say anything else about not letting her go, so he agreed to her: "But you can go tomorrow."

"Why?"

"Nonsense, I will accept Yiyi as my disciple this afternoon. Please show up honestly."

"oh."

"Master and the others will also be present." This is the key point.

Gu Qingyan nodded solemnly: "I understand."

But in fact, even if Gu Ning and the others find out now, nothing will happen. They will be fine soon anyway.

After all, Yiyi is the first formal apprentice of this generation of Taohuajian, so this apprenticeship ceremony is much more solemn.

Choosing a good time and auspicious time, we invited people from the previous generation to decorate the main hall.

At about the hour, Su Xin came with Gu Qingyan's support, and Han Yan and Su Tanxue were invited to watch the ceremony.

Xu Shaolin and Baili Mo also came over behind. Gu Qingyan went up to talk: "Eldest and third brothers haven't come to see me much recently. What are you busy with?"

Baili Mo smiled and said: "It's not enough for us to go there once a day. I have to go to your place three times a day like the second brother does, or I have to go there once a day like Master Han."

It was agreed that Jingxinyuan would be closed to all visitors, but he didn't see many people leaving.

Gu Qingyan chuckled, her coquettishness failed, come on, just stay there.

Soon after, Qianhuayu, Yunluan, Gu Ning, and Xing Ming also arrived. Seeing Gu Qingyan's pretty good complexion, they were all relieved, but they felt that Gu Qingyan had lost a little weight.

"You kid, have you not eaten well recently?" Yun Luan took Gu Qingyan's hand and asked her.

Gu Qingyan thought to herself, how could she lose weight by eating porridge and vegetarian soup every three or four days?

"No, maybe it was because I spent a lot of time in the past few days." Gu Qingyan replied.

Gu Ning didn't see Dongli, Nanke, or Xijue, but he didn't see Beiming. He asked, "Why don't you see Beiming?"

Gu Qingyan said: "I gave them all a rest. After all, they have followed me all year round. Compared to the other three, they are miserable."

"Well, that's fine." Gu Ning said, everyone took their seats, and Gu Qingyan also breathed a sigh of relief.

When the time came, host Nanke invited Yiyi. Today, Yiyi was wearing a moxa green dress, which is Zong Yue's favorite color. She had her hair tied up in a bun with a pair of jade hairpins, which were gifts from Qianhuayu and Yunluan.

, holding the box in his hand, it is a gift that will be given to all the masters later.

"Please second master!"

We invited Zong Yue out. There was a tacit understanding between the master and the apprentice. Yiyi's moxa-green dress was colored plain white, and Zong Yue's plain white dress was colored moxa green. It was a perfect match.

After Zong Yue finished his work, Yiyi stepped forward to kowtow and bow to the master. He then bowed to the senior masters and finally bowed to several other masters.

I gave him a prepared purse filled with lotus seeds, red beans, longans, and red dates and performed the apprenticeship ceremony.

Nanke served the tea, Yiyi drank it, and then went to Zongyue to give a lecture.

After a process, the apprenticeship is over, and Yiyi has officially entered the Taohuajian Zongyue.

Zong Yue also officially became the first person in Taohuajian to accept a disciple.

There was another banquet tonight, and it was time for Gu Qingyan to feel sorry for her few jars of wine.

The chairs in the main hall had no cushions. After working for a while, Gu Qingyan felt her back hurt. She couldn't even lean back or stand straight up.

Gu Ning on the side saw the clues. After the apprenticeship was over, he called Gu Qingyan and asked, "What's going on with the back?"

Gu Qingyan said it was fine at first, but she didn't know that Gu Ning was about to check. Gu Qingyan saw that it would be a big deal if his father hit him, but if he said it now, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?

.

I simply took a gamble, but luckily Gu Ning's slap didn't come down, and instead I heard him say: "Are you injured?"

Gu Qingyan still shook her head, and Gu Ning said: "You were restless just now. Your eldest, second, and third brothers were all looking at you. You can't hide that look from me."

Gu Qingyan slapped her forehead, how could they forget that her father's eyes were the most perceptive.

In desperation, Gu Qingyan had to make up lies and said that she accidentally injured her back during the trial, but now it has begun to scar, so she sometimes feels itchy and uncomfortable.

"Really?" Gu Ning asked back.

Gu Qingyan nodded fiercely, and Gu Ning didn't bother to talk too much nonsense to her. Anyway, she was still standing in front of him, so let's just take it as such.

Gu Qingyan went out and saw everyone's eyes: Have you been discovered?
