Chapter 161 Planning for Him
Wang Mei slapped her thigh: "Right, I hadn't thought of that. What if you... can't even recognize your own wife in the future?"

Yun Chenbei blushed under the gaze of the family, keeping his head down and not daring to look back.

"I...I'm still young."

"Little brat, he's already 16. Lots of people his age are already going on blind dates and dating."

Finally, Yun Chenbei made an excuse to leave, practically fleeing in panic.

This little incident did lighten the somber atmosphere somewhat.

Grandma Yun instructed, "Since the fourth boy wants to learn to be a carpenter from Old Man Mu, we should prepare some things to send to him. Old Man Mu is teaching him seriously, so we should thank him properly."

"Go get a cured pork leg."

Now that they've made the decision, these parents have to plan carefully for their child's future.

Apart from Yun Chenbei, everyone else in the Yun family thought that Old Man Mu was just a carpenter.

Yun Chenbei wouldn't go around saying that his master was not only a carpenter, but also a sculptor and a master mechanic.

Even if I explained it, most people probably wouldn't understand.

While the adults were talking, Yun Jiao sneaked into her fourth brother's room.

"Fourth brother."

"Jiaojiao, come in."

Yun Jiao walked over and said, "Fourth brother, will you teach me to write from now on? Jiao Jiao wants to write for eldest brother and second brother."

"it is good."

Yun Chenbei readily agreed, and he showed her a palm-sized, unfinished wooden carving.

"Look."

Her tone changed from its previous cautiousness, now carrying a hint of anticipation.

"Wow, is that me? And there's an orca, it's Jiaojiao riding an orca."

Yun Chenbei nodded: "It's not finished yet. The face and hair are a bit difficult to sculpt. My master is helping."

"Then my brother is super amazing too."

Yun Chenbei was pleased to be praised by his younger sister.

Yun Jiao admired the small wooden carving for a moment before handing it to him.

"Is Fourth Brother going to see Grandpa Mu today? I want to go too."

"it is good."

Not only Yun Jiao was going, but the whole family, except those who were at school, were going too, and they all changed into new clothes.

Yun Chenbei: ...Aren't there too many people?
But he also knew that his grandfather and the others were doing this for his own sake.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't moved.

Looking at the pig's leg, Yun Chenbei's lips twitched.

"Grandma, I'm not taking this."

Grandma Yun looked disapproving: "That's your master. From now on, you'll follow your master to learn this. That's your elder. This is the only thing our family can offer right now. Oh, Grandpa, take out a bottle of Moutai and bring this along too."

Grandpa Yun didn't hesitate and turned around to get the wine.

Actually, Yun Chenbei had previously mentioned that he had become Mu Laotou's apprentice, and they had even brought some white sugar, noodles, and other gifts as presents.

Grandma Yun felt a little annoyed: "I should have invited your master to our house for a meal and drinks before, but our place is small and we're busy right now. We won't be so busy once the new house is finished. Then Lin Hai, Lin He, and Jiao Jiao, you two can go out to sea and find some good things to entertain him."

"By the way, your master doesn't have a bad impression of our family, does he? Won't this sudden visit bother him?"

Yun Chenbei: "No, Master really likes the food cooked at home."

Because what he made was really hard to eat.

"That's good."

"My master isn't very good at cooking."

Yun Jiao added, "It tastes terrible."

"The kind that even a dog wouldn't want to eat."

Yun family:…………

Jiaojiao, you can't say that in front of people. Grandma Yun: "What does it matter? The gift must be delivered. If your master can't do it, then you can."

"It's only right for you, as an apprentice, to be respectful to your master. If you don't know how to do it, just watch us do it. Once you learn, you'll be fine. This is very simple."

Yun Chenbei couldn't persuade so many people alone, so he had no choice but to go to his master's house with everyone.

Yun Jiao went to Grandma Liu's house and carried both puppies together.

Because their father lives at Grandpa Mu's house.

I don't know if it's still there now.

Old Man Mu's house is in a remote area, so so many people rarely come here.

When they heard someone knocking, they opened the door and were stunned by what they saw.

"Hey kid, didn't you go to school?"

"Brother Mu, we hope we haven't disturbed you?"

Old Man Mu shook his head and stepped aside: "Why are you bothering me if I'm the only one at home? Come on in."

Of course, if it were anyone else, this eccentric old man would definitely have said "excuse me" without hesitation.

But these people were his apprentice's relatives, and he quite liked Yun Jiao, that little girl. Besides, he had eaten meals prepared by his apprentice's family more than once.

Old Man Mu brought over a few stools, and everyone sat down in the courtyard.

Yun Jiao, accompanied by her two chubby little dogs, excitedly called for the big black dog.

She's simply called Dahei, a name similar to Dabai, simple and easy to remember.

Over here, Grandpa Yun and the others didn't waste any time and told Old Man Mu about Yun Chenbei's situation.

Old Man Mu puffed on his pipe: "I wondered why this kid didn't like going out."

He lived alone, so Yun Chenbei didn't seem to not recognize him.

"So, you're not going to school anymore?"

Yun Chenbei nodded: "My grades aren't very good. Even if I continue my studies, I won't be able to get into a good school. Besides, I prefer woodworking."

Old Man Mu snorted: "Carpentry is a skill, and if you learn it well, it's no worse than going to university."

“Those universities even have programs that specialize in this, and those university professors might not be as good at teaching as I am.”

He was quite confident in himself.

Yun Chenbei looked at him with sparkling eyes.

Old Man Mu was a little dazzled by the boy's gaze; there was no need for him to idolize him so much.

However, he was quite satisfied.

Grandpa Yun held Old Man Mu's hand gratefully and said, "Then we'll have to trouble you, old brother, with our son from now on."

Old Man Mu nodded: "Now that I've taken him as my apprentice, I will naturally teach him well. Chen Bei is quite talented in this area."

Old Man Mu and the family got along surprisingly well, and in the end, Old Man Mu simply invited them to stay and have a meal.

"I don't know how to cook this pork leg. Giving it to me would be a waste of such good food. I'll have to trouble you, sister-in-law."

Grandma Yun smiled and said, "We're family, so let's not stand on ceremony!"

Then everyone got busy.

It was rare for Old Man Mu's house to be so lively. He smoked a cigarette, put his hands behind his back, and strolled over to see Yun Jiao.

What are you doing here?

Yun Jiao ruffled the fur of the big black dog, while the two little fat dogs howled and climbed up and down on the big black dog's body.

"There are bugs on Big Black, Grandpa Mu, look."

Old Man Mu exclaimed upon seeing it: "Oh my! Such a big louse!"

"This damn dog, how long has it been since it had a bath?"

"You're still lying on it, aren't you afraid of getting those lice on you!"

Yun Jiao held her head high and declared, "I'm not afraid!"

Old Man Mu grabbed the person and said, "You're not afraid? You're not afraid, but I am. Your mother and the others are afraid. Why are you so greedy? And this dog needs a bath. Luckily, I didn't let it into the house!"
