I pretend to be a unicorn in the Red Mansion

Chapter 74 Successfully Becomes a Disciple

The next morning, Jia Cheng, wearing the aura of affinity, took all the appearance pills he had bought and enhanced his appearance.

He looked radiant and even his farts were fragrant.

The system looked at Jia Cheng's fuss and was a little puzzled. [Brother Cheng, are you really that serious? Those who know you are going to become his disciple, while those who don't would think you are going on a blind date.]

Jia Cheng didn't care about the system's teasing at all. Instead, he said with a little dissatisfaction: "Brother Tongzi, I don't think you are sincere to me. If I hadn't discovered it myself, you wouldn't have told me that those pills have an expiration date. ]

The system felt a little guilty, "Well, I thought you knew. Besides, there's no medicine that can cure all problems once you take it. It must have a time limit.

Anyway, it’s not a big deal to buy one beauty pill, slimming pill, strength pill, etc. every month, and they’re not expensive.

Oh, you scolded me last night, why are you bringing up the past today? I forgot to tell you.]

Jia Cheng snorted coldly and ignored the system. He knew that cheap goods are always bad.

At the beginning, he bought a bunch of pills and only spent a few luck points. He thought this system was quite conscientious.

It turned out that the pills were only effective for one month, and I had to continue taking them after one month to maintain the previous effects.

Jia Cheng felt that the Concubine Mall was too treacherous. Anyone who had taken these pills and gained benefits would inevitably continue to take them.

Just like plastic surgery, it's addictive.

These pills are a long-term business, and even if the price goes up in the future, he will probably have to buy them.

Although Jia Cheng does not rely on beauty to gain favor like those concubines, he has to maintain his own personality.

Which deity doesn’t have the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix, an ethereal aura, and an outstanding temperament?

Who has ever seen a god who is a fat guy with dark skin and large pores?

After Jia Cheng took the beauty pill, his whole appearance seemed to be filtered. Everyone has become accustomed to him like this, and he cannot become ugly.

Jia Cheng felt that the system had ulterior motives when it recommended that he buy these useless pills.

At that time, he was rich and thought it was okay to give himself a beauty treatment, but now he feels that he has been tricked.

If the system tells him that he needs to eat these things all the time, he may not buy them at all.

He had a preconceived notion that things like beauty pills were permanent because that's how novels were written.

As a result, he encountered a shitty system, and everything in the system mall was quite deceptive.

If he hadn't noticed that his face had become darker due to the sun and that he had gained some weight recently, he might not have discovered the disadvantages of those pills.

Jia Cheng noticed the changes in himself and guessed that the medicinal properties of the pills must have worn off.

He blew up the system last night and found out the truth from the system.

This morning he had no choice but to buy all the pills again and take them.

What if he didn't eat? He couldn't go to become a disciple in such a bad state.

Jia Cheng was wearing red, looking particularly festive. Jia She felt that his son looked a little better today.

Jia Cheng: The medicine was not taken in vain.

Mrs. Xing helped Jia Cheng adjust his clothes and carefully put the priceless jade pendant on him.

She packed up Jia Cheng and reminded him again and again, "Brother Cheng, don't be nervous when you see Censor Zhu. Just answer whatever he asks.

Our Cheng brother is handsome and smart, he will definitely accept you, so don't be afraid."

Jia She was somewhat impatient to listen to Madam Xing's nagging, so he just picked up Jia Cheng and left. "I don't think it's Cheng who's afraid, it's you who's afraid. You're really a woman, you don't have courage.

Wang Ziteng has already talked to Censor Zhu, there will be absolutely no problem for our Cheng'er to become his disciple. This is just a formality. Why are you so nervous?

Okay, stop talking, we have to get out of here quickly, otherwise it will be late."

Jia She walked out with big strides. Mrs. Xing wanted to give her a few more instructions, but Jia She had already left quickly with Jia Cheng in his arms.

Mrs. Xing sighed and returned to her room with a nervous heart, thinking about Jia Cheng's apprenticeship.

Jia She carried Jia Cheng into the carriage. After getting on the carriage, he began to give Jia Cheng instructions over and over again like Mrs. Xing did.

"Don't be nervous. Just answer whatever Censor Zhu asks."

Jia She was nervous all the way, completely different from the calmness he had just shown in front of Mrs. Xing.

Jia Cheng had a calm expression, his little face was as cold as ice, and he didn't look nervous at all.

When the carriage stopped, Jia She touched his chest and felt like his heart was about to jump out. "Are we here already?" He looked at Jia Cheng nervously.

"Brother Cheng, are you ready?"

Jia Cheng patted Jia She's hand soothingly, "Master, I'm ready."

Jia She took a deep breath and nodded, "Okay, as long as we're ready, let's go in."

Jia She carried Jia Cheng down from the carriage and wanted to carry him inside.

Jia Cheng refused directly, "Master, today I am becoming your disciple. If you carry me in, it will make me look too delicate. I'd better go by myself."

Jia She thought this made sense, but he felt particularly sorry for Jia Cheng.

During this period, as long as Jia Cheng and Jia She were together, they would never touch the ground.

Jia She always held Jia Cheng in his arms as if he were a precious treasure, not wanting his shoes to get muddy.

But today, in order to become his disciple, Jia She can only let Jia Cheng fend for himself.

Fortunately, Zhu Shi’s house was not big, with only three courtyards, and he quickly reached the main house.

Zhu Shi was talking to Wang Ziteng in the room at this time, and the topic they were talking about was naturally Jia Cheng.

Wang Ziteng came to see him yesterday and said he wanted to introduce a student to him.

In fact, Zhu Shi didn't want to accept students. The Fourth Prince Hongli was enough for him to worry about. He also had to teach the princes when he had time, so how could he have the time to accept students?

In particular, the students introduced by Wang Ziteng were from Rongguo Mansion.

Children from poor families like them are most reluctant to associate with nobles. They always feel that if they associate too much with them, they will be infected with their bad habits.

However, Wang Ziteng had done Zhu Shi a favor and had once saved his life. The two became close friends because of this life-saving favor, so he had to give Wang Ziteng some face.

In fact, Zhu Shi was a little relieved in his heart. Although he didn't know the character of the child from Rongguo Mansion, he should at least be better than Wang Ziteng's nephew Wang Ren.

If Wang Ziteng introduced his nephew to him as a student, he would definitely refuse it outright.

And Jia Cheng mentioned by Wang Ziteng did arouse his interest.

It is said that Jia Cheng was very smart and had read the Four Books and Five Classics at a young age.

He was also very filial. He taught himself medicine and treated his sick grandmother, and he cured her.

After Wang Ziteng's description, Zhu Shi became interested in Jia Cheng and wanted to meet this little prodigy.

Jia She brought Jia Cheng into the main house. Zhu Shi took a liking to Jia Cheng the first time he saw him.

Although the child was dressed in red and green and looked very noble, he did not have an overbearing temperament.

This shows that he is not a playboy.

Jia Cheng has a cool and ethereal air about him, mixed with a hint of bookishness. When scholars of the upper class see Jia Cheng's pretentious appearance, they have to call him an expert.

When Jia Cheng approached, Zhu Shi smelled the fragrance of elixir coming from Jia Cheng, which refreshed his mind and made him forget the world.

Zhu Shi’s first reaction was that this boy was destined to be with me.

No matter how Jia Cheng studied, Zhu Shi wanted to accept him as a student just because of his appearance and temperament.

Of course, before he met Jia Cheng, he was still a little hesitant. After meeting Jia Cheng, he felt that this child should be his student.

Jia Cheng's apprenticeship went unexpectedly smoothly, even Wang Ziteng was stunned.

He knew Zhu Shi very well. Zhu Shi was not someone who would be easily moved.

In recent years, there have been many students who wanted to become Zhu Shi's disciples, but they were all rejected by Zhu Shi.

Those who wanted to become a disciple tried their best, but they all failed in the end.

However, Jia Cheng's treatment was completely different from those students. There was no performance, no test. He just showed up, and Zhu Shi directly agreed to become his disciple.

Wang Ziteng believed that the formal procedure should be that Zhu Shi kindly asked Jia Cheng a few questions, such as how old he was this year and what kind of books he liked to read. Only if Jia Cheng's answers satisfied Zhu Shi, could he become his disciple.

As a result, Zhu Shi did not play by the rules. He directly accepted the gift of becoming a disciple, handed Jia Cheng a cup of tea, and asked him to offer the tea and become a disciple directly.

Zhu Shi seemed even more impatient than Jia Cheng. Wang Ziteng was a little confused as to why Zhu Shi changed so quickly.

Just now, after much persuasion, Zhu Shi finally agreed to meet him, but he also said that he might not be willing to accept it.

Why did he change his mind as soon as Jia Cheng showed up?

Suddenly Wang Ziteng realized that Qilin is a mythical beast. No matter what kind of relationship Jia Cheng has with the auspicious beast Qilin, he should be somewhat magical.

Perhaps Zhu Shi saw that Jia Cheng was extraordinary, so he accepted him as his apprentice. With this explanation, everything makes sense.

Wang Ziteng cursed himself inwardly for making a fuss out of nothing. With Jia Cheng's looks and temperament, coupled with his clever brain, only a fool would reject such a student.

If Jia Cheng is trained well, he will become a figure who will go down in history in the future. Who doesn't want to be famous in history?

Jia Cheng successfully became the apprentice and received great recognition from his teacher.

Wang Ziteng was jealous. If his nephew Wang Ren could be half as successful as Jia Cheng, he would have one less thing to worry about.

Zhu Shi didn't even glance at Wang Ziteng. Now his heart and eyes were full of his elementary school student, and the more he looked at him, the cuter he became.

You say why Jia Cheng looks so likable, Zhu Shi wanted to give all his rare ancient books back to Jia Cheng.

He couldn't control his hands and just wanted to give Jia Cheng a lot of good things. This child is very kind to others, and he would feel uncomfortable if he didn't give him something.

Seeing that Zhu Shi was about to become the second Jia She, he couldn't bear to watch his enthusiasm towards Jia Cheng.

Jia Cheng smiled at the newly appointed teacher, and Zhu Shi couldn't help but smile on his serious and rigid face.
