Quick Wear: Passerby A's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons

At night, the young apprentice slept with Jiang Yue. She didn't dare to sleep alone when she first arrived at the new place, and Jiang Yue was also a little uneasy. Anyway, Jiang Yue's room was big enough for both of them to sleep. The next morning, Jiang Yue took the apprentice to do morning lessons, and then the master and apprentice began to exercise. After that, they started to make breakfast.

Although Jiang Yue was not at the Taoist temple, the people in the village would plant the land opened by Jiang Yue every year, and the harvested grain was kept in the granary. As for the vegetables, they were delivered from the greenhouse early in the morning, along with some seasonings. After cooking the porridge, they steamed an egg custard and added the uneaten sesame cakes, and their breakfast was solved.

After dinner, the two of them packed up the things in the luggage and put each item in its proper place. After sorting out the things, they tidied up the room for the little apprentice. The room next to Jiang Yue was originally used as a quiet room, but the apprentice wanted to live next to Jiang Yue, so Jiang Yue cleaned up the room.

After cleaning up and laying down new bedding, the protagonist had already gotten the cotton out, so now he had a quilt and a mattress to use. After everything was ready, Jiang Yue planned to take his little apprentice to familiarize himself with the environment around the Taoist temple. They had just taken a general look last night, so today they had more time to take a closer look.

They spent the whole morning getting familiar with the Taoist temple. At noon, the two of them went down the mountain. Jiang Yue took his apprentice to get to know all the acquaintances. In the afternoon, he took her for a stroll around the academy and visited Master Sun by the way. It was decided that he would invite Sun Zhen to come over when he officially accepted him as a disciple.

Then he took his apprentice to look around the academy. Seeing the little apprentice's curious look, Jiang Yue asked, "Apprentice, do you want to come here to study?"

"Ah? Why, Master? Can't I just learn from you?"

"Master wants you to get in touch with more people of your age. Also, the two courses you are interested in, mathematics and physics, can only be learned here."

"Is that so? Well, Master, I'll listen to you, but how can I come here to study? If it's troublesome, forget it."

"It's not a problem. When Master asked for textbooks, he had already made an agreement with the dean of the academy. The new semester will start after the Qingming Festival. You can just come over to study."

"Okay, Master. I will learn well."

"Well, you have to think about it. The schoolwork in the future will be very heavy. In addition to the schoolwork in the academy, you also have to learn the medical skills of your teacher. You can't stop practicing."

"I understand, Master."

Jiang Yue had told the protagonist before when they were traveling. Ever since the little apprentice became interested in physics and mathematics, Jiang Yue began to help her plan. Looking at the little apprentice's confident attitude, Jiang Yue smiled secretly in her heart. You will know how tiring it is in the future. Jiang Yue's medical skills alone are enough for her to learn for a lifetime.

After leaving the academy, he returned to the Taoist temple. The next day, he went to Chang'an to process a certificate of ordination for his apprentice, and then went to buy the items needed for the apprentice-taking ceremony. After finishing his business, he went to the bookstore and bought a copy of the newspapers published in recent years. By the way, he bought some storybooks to kill time when he was bored.

Then he took his little apprentice to visit Chang'an City and let her try the local specialties. They didn't finish visiting Chang'an City in one day, so they stayed in the city at night.

We continued shopping the next day and took her to the West Market to see the foreigners. We also bought a lot of snacks. We then set off back to the Taoist temple after lunch in the afternoon.

Afterwards, Jiang Yue chose an auspicious day to hold a ceremony to accept his young apprentice as his disciple. Finally, he finished all the things that needed to be done before the Chinese New Year. The young apprentice was quite excited when the Chinese New Year was approaching. After all, he had spent the previous three years celebrating the Chinese New Year away from home. There was a Chinese New Year atmosphere, but it was definitely not as strong as celebrating the New Year at home.

There were three or four days left before the Chinese New Year. On this day, the little apprentice went out to play, and Jiang Yue was the only one at home in the Taoist temple preparing things for the New Year. The area around the Taoist temple is very safe now. It has been raided countless times. There are no large animals. The road to the mountain has been repaired several times. The most important thing is that there are puppets following secretly, so Jiang Yue felt at ease letting her go out to play.

When Jiang Yue was still thinking about what to eat at noon, the young apprentice ran in with a few girls. They greeted Jiang Yue and took them to the study. From what they said, they were going to see the paintings they had painted on the way.

Jiang Yue did not disturb them and cooked some extra food. She called them to eat after they had finished eating. Jiang Yue had had a childhood and knew that she could not let go when adults were around, so she went down the mountain to get the vegetables from the greenhouse. It was almost the New Year, so there was no need for someone to make a special trip to deliver the food.

After going down the mountain, the person in charge of the village introduced the situation of the past few years to Jiang Yue and gave Jiang Yue the account books and money of the past few years. Jiang Yue packed up the things, took some vegetables and went to the old village chief's house.

I examined the old village chief and prescribed some medicine for him. When I said goodbye, I told him about the free clinic I would be holding after the New Year, left some food for him, and then said goodbye.

On the way back to the mountain, Jiang Yue made a schedule of things to do recently. Her study plan had been delayed for quite a long time, but she was not in a hurry and could wait until her apprentice went to the academy to make up for it slowly. She would have much more time by then.

After returning to the Taoist temple, Jiang Yue saw that they had finished their meal. Jiang Yue looked around and saw that the place was quite clean. Seeing that Jiang Yue was back, the children also said goodbye.

As soon as Jiang Yue sent the children away, the little apprentice came over with sparkling eyes: "Master, I talked to them about a lot of new things outside today."

"Well, just have fun." Jiang Yue smiled and rubbed his little apprentice's head.

"Master, when are we going to put up Spring Festival couplets? I saw many families down the mountain have put them up. They look so beautiful in red." The little apprentice looked expectant.

"We'll put it up tomorrow and cut some window decorations to paste on." Jiang Yue said.

The next day, the master and his apprentice got up early and got busy. The young apprentice was clumsy with the paste, while Jiang Yue carefully smoothed and pasted the Spring Festival couplets.

After pasting the Spring Festival couplets, the two began to cut window paper-cuts. The window paper-cuts cut by the little apprentice were crooked, but revealed a simple and cute style.

After the Spring Festival couplets were pasted, New Year's Eve arrived. The master and apprentice started to get busy after doing morning lessons early in the morning. The young apprentice helped to wash the vegetables and Jiang Yue was responsible for cooking. Today is New Year's Eve, and everyone would like to have a sumptuous meal.

After the last dish was ready, Jiang Yue went to get two bottles of juice. During the meal, the little apprentice liked this sour and sweet drink very much, and she gave her half of Jiang Yue's bottle.

After dinner, someone started setting off fireworks at night. Needless to say, it was the protagonist who set off the fireworks. There were no such fireworks in those days. The master and the apprentice watched the fireworks show in the cold wind and then ran back to the house. It was too cold in the middle of the night.
