Good luck every time

Although everything is kept simple, necessary rituals cannot be omitted.

Although Li Ruyi has always called the blind old lady "Master", that was just her way of getting the title. She still doesn't know who her master is or what her master's name is.

This ceremony is also part of the inheritance.

However, the blind old lady didn't know anyone in the village, so she didn't plan to find anyone to witness it.

Li Ruyi said that she would listen to her master completely!

He looks like a good apprentice.

The discussion was held in the afternoon and the ceremony was held before dinner!

For this reason, Li Ruyi deliberately killed the last rabbit in the house.

The rabbit skin was peeled off and prepared to be kneaded to make a scarf for Han Shian, and the rest was stewed in a pot. Add in a grass carp, and this meal was almost as good as the New Year's Eve dinner.

This time, Li Ruyi took care of the grass carp herself. She picked out the fish bones, chopped the fish meat into fish paste, added salt, and then cooked a pot of wild vegetable fish ball soup with the wild vegetables.

When she heard that Li Ruyi wanted to learn kung fu from the blind old lady, the eldest sister was very happy for her.

But after the third child was happy, he became hesitant to speak again. It seemed as if the little child was stuck on some problem.

Li Ruyi asked her while making a fire.

"What's troubling you?"

The third brother sighed.

"Second sister, I also want to learn martial arts."

She was afraid that the blind old lady would not be willing to teach her and would implicate Li Ruyi.

Li Ruyi felt that although she was young, she was quite thoughtful.

"Just thinking about it won't solve the problem! If you really want to learn, you can go ask my master. If we ask sincerely, she can agree or refuse. There will always be a result, right?"

When the third brother heard this, his eyes lit up.

She felt that her second sister was right!

But I immediately became worried again.

"Second sister, I heard that others have to pay a gift to the master when they become his apprentice, but I don't have any. How can I ask my mother-in-law to accept me? Besides, I'm a little scared."

In the mind of the third brother, learning martial arts from a master is the same as being an apprentice.

Today, she saw the old blind woman beating people, and was deeply impressed by her. She was young and didn't know the twists and turns, she just thought that knowing martial arts would prevent her from being bullied.

To some extent, this is true.

However, the third brother was not sure about the blind old lady's thoughts, because the two of them lived under the same roof for several days and their conversation did not exceed ten sentences.

Most of the time, it was her eldest sister who told her to call people to eat, and she said this when she called people in to eat.

And the blind old lady basically won't respond.

Li Ruyi fought for whatever she wanted. Except for the time when she and Han Shian left the Jiaofangsi, which made her hesitate, she had never backed down.

She calmly educated the third child.

"Why worry about that? It won't hurt to ask. The worst that can happen is that you'll be rejected!"

According to Li Ruyi's rule of survival, if you want something, you should fight for it, and there is nothing to be embarrassed about saying it openly.

Who doesn’t want to live a better life!

After hearing this, the third brother closed his eyes tightly, took a deep breath, stood up and went to find the blind old lady.

However, she just walked to the door and then stepped back.

"Second sister, I'm still a little scared."

Li Ruyi laughed.

"Second sister has confidence in you, go ahead!"

The third sister's hands were shaking with nervousness, but seeing that Li Ruyi had no intention of speaking up for her, she could only cheer herself up.

She took a step and stopped for a moment, muttering to herself, saying all the good things she could think of.

Feeling that it was not enough, she added words like she would be filial to her master in the future.

She scratched her head, unable to think of anything else to promise, yet she always felt that it was not serious enough.

After all, I am a child who has never been loved. When I want to get something, I always feel that I should pay more.

It was a quarter of an hour later when she wandered over to the blind old woman's thatched cottage.

Li Ruyi’s fish ball soup is ready.

The third child looked at the blind old lady in front of him and wanted to retreat, but her little arms and legs were more persistent than her, and they had already stepped into the thatched pavilion.

She took a deep breath, making a sound as soft as a mosquito.

"Grandma, are you asleep?"

The blind old lady sighed deeply, and in her mind she could picture the third child stretching his head.

She had excellent hearing, and she heard every word the third brother kept talking about, without missing a single word. Now she was even more embarrassed than the third brother!

When the blind old lady doesn't know what to say, she just remains silent.

The third brother waited for a while but got no response. Feeling a little lonely, he spoke again in a low voice.

"Then go to sleep, mother-in-law! I'm leaving first!"

She turned around and left quietly, not wanting to disturb the blind old lady's rest.

After she took two steps, the blind old woman's voice sounded behind her.

"I have two conditions for accepting you as my disciple. The first is that you cannot give up halfway, or I will kill you. The second is that you must help me kill someone."

"If you agree, you can become my disciple. If you don't agree, forget it."

The blind old lady doesn’t know how to communicate with the child.

All her experience in communicating with children comes from Li Ruyi.

The third sister was shocked by what she said. It was a little different from what she had imagined.

But since it involved murder, she didn't dare agree.

"I...I want to ask my second sister!"

The blind old lady didn't say anything and her posture didn't change, which made the third brother wonder if it was just an illusion.

She turned around and ran quickly to Li Ruyi and repeated what she had just said.

Li Ruyi nodded.

"I know. I've already promised."

The third sister then breathed a sigh of relief. If the second sister also agreed, then she felt that there would be no problem with her!

She suddenly became happy.

"Then I agree too!"

Seeing that Li Ruyi didn't react much, she remembered that she should tell this to the blind old lady. She was about to run out happily, but was stopped by Li Ruyi.

"Xiao Man, you can agree to this, but remember not to tell Big Sister."

The smile on the third brother's face faded a little.

"Don't tell my sister?"

If he had to choose one between his two sisters, the third child would choose Li Ruyi without hesitation.

The eldest sister is very nice and will take care of her.

But the third sister knew clearly that in the eldest sister's heart, she was not the most important relative.

Maybe in the eldest sister's heart, there are too many important things, so she cannot be ranked.

Reputation, identity, clan, inheritance, marrying, getting married...

These external things are more important than living people.

If the eldest sister knew that the price of learning martial arts was to help the blind old lady kill someone.

Then she would definitely not agree to the two of them becoming her disciples, and this matter would cause complications.

Li Ruyi didn't want to have a dispute with her elder sister.

What they pursue is different and will never be the same.

The third brother looked at Li Ruyi's thoughtful expression, and the joy on his face faded even more.

However, she nodded vigorously.

"it is good!"

As soon as she agreed, the blind old lady in the thatched pavilion suddenly started coughing.

Li Ruyi looked outside and saw her elder sister coming back from the backyard with firewood. When she saw Li Ruyi, she asked her.

"Have you prepared the meal? Do you have enough firewood?"

Li Ruyi nodded.

"It's done! That's enough."

The third sister was not thick-skinned enough. Seeing the eldest sister lowering her head guiltily, she soon became worried that if the eldest sister also wanted to learn martial arts, would she also ask the blind old lady.

Will the secret be exposed then?
