It was almost time, and Tan Hongru glanced at the clock hanging in the restaurant lobby.

He talked to a few old friends around him, and then took Qingqing back to Fu Sihuai.

There is a large private room on the second floor of the restaurant that is specially customized for this occasion.

Before the apprenticeship banquet began, Tan Hongru had something to discuss with Fu Sihuai.

He focused on the ancient process of apprenticeship, which was divided into five steps.

Correct clothing, wash hands, kowtow, present six gifts and offer tea at an auspicious time.

I came to see Fu Sihuai just to ask him if he had prepared these.

Of course Fu Sihuai did not forget. Even though he thought Tan Hongru had booked a small restaurant, he still asked his assistant to prepare these things.

After the two of them had discussed it, they pulled Qingqing aside to explain a few things.

The little girl was very obedient and would do whatever I asked her to do. However, I told her too much at once and she had a hard time remembering it all.

Neither of them forced her. She just needed to remember the general idea. She would definitely be able to remember it when the time came if they reminded her.

It was also the first time in his life that he had accepted such a young apprentice, and Tan Hongru was actually a little nervous. Not only him, but also his colleagues and friends had never experienced this.

On the second floor.

At the originally planned time, the first few rows on both sides of the banquet hall were filled with people, many of whom were called by Tan Hongru, and their average age was quite old.

Xiao Qingqing stood in the aisle and started from the first step.

As a teacher, Tan Hongru should help the student straighten his clothes, which is an action that should be done while standing. However, Qingqing was too short, so the restaurant staff brought her a tall stool.

With so many people watching around, Xiao Qingqing was also very serious, with a soft and cute face.

It was a little high up, and she was afraid, so she didn't look down.

Seeing the little girl standing upright, Tan Hongru actually wanted to laugh.

As soon as he got closer, his hands unconsciously wanted to put on Qingqing's little head.

It was half extended but was forcibly retracted and placed on the child's collar.

It's furry, soft and warm to the touch.

After this step, Tan Hongru took her to the basin to wash her hands, washing them once on both sides, and then drying them.

What surprised him was that he didn't even give the girl any reminders during the whole process, and she completed it on her own.

When she was performing the ceremony of paying homage to her master, she knelt on the ground and slammed her little head down with a bang. The sound could be heard by people in the first three rows.

Tan Hongru naturally heard it clearly, and he was so scared that his whole body trembled.

When Qingqing kowtowed and raised her head, her forehead immediately turned red and was swelling at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Tan Hongru, who was sitting right in front, saw it most clearly and turned his eyes away in pain.

This silly kid, why is he kowtowing so hard?

When she got up from the ground, as expected, many little stars appeared in front of her eyes and she felt dizzy.

As soon as he finished bowing his head, Fu Sihuai asked someone around him to secretly bring a doctor.

After the apprenticeship ceremony, the doctor in casual clothes applied a layer of medicine on the red and swollen area on her head.

Several close relatives were in the room, and when they talked about the bang just now, there was heartache in their tone.

"Silly child, why are you knocking so hard?"

Qingqing raised her hand. She wanted to touch her forehead, but her hand was stopped halfway.

The little girl had an innocent expression and said in a baby voice, "Dad, you didn't tell me, so I don't know."

She had never kowtowed before, and this was her first time, so she was not skilled.

Fu Sihuai was helpless, as he had indeed overlooked this point.

In his heart, he already treated the little girl as his own daughter, forgetting that she had been in an orphanage before and might not have been taught by anyone.

Thinking of this, he carried Qingqing out and slowly instructed her in a low and pleasant voice.

"Don't use so much force next time. It's a good thing this is a wooden floor. If it were stone, your little head would have hurt for days."

Xiao Qingqing hugged her neck and said in a soft and sweet voice, "I know, Dad~"

Xiao Su followed behind them. Seeing that Qingqing didn't notice him along the way, he couldn't help but remind her of his existence.

"Xiao Qingqing, Uncle Xiao is here to apologize to you."

The little guy stared at his face for a few seconds with a strange expression, but it was definitely not a good one.

Because of her special abilities, every time Fu Sihuai gave her an example to illustrate how terrible it would be if her abilities were discovered, he would bring up the "villain" Xiao Su. After all, there was a lesson from the past, and it would be a good idea to use this living example.

Not only is it so vivid, but the little one has experienced it firsthand, so he remembers it more clearly.

After saying it so many times, the way Qingqing looks at him is no longer strange!

Feeling the little girl's somewhat distant and cautious attitude, Xiao Su felt like the sky was falling.

How come he became like this after just two days of not seeing him? Where did his soft "Uncle Xiao" go? Why didn't he call him that anymore?

He followed Fu Sihuai closely, and even sat next to them during meals. He talked a lot and kept asking questions.

"Qingqing, why aren't you talking to Uncle Xiao? Are you still angry?"

Xiao Qingqing puffed up her cheeks and looked at him somewhat unhappily.

"If I don't talk to you, you'll take me away from daddy."

This sentence is said in an accusatory tone, and because it is so cute, it also sounds adorable.

But Xiao Su didn't care about feeling cute at this time. He quickly explained, "No, no, I will never do anything to hurt you again. Really! I swear to you, okay?"

He felt a panic in his heart. This sudden feeling of panic was very strange and unknown, something that had never happened to him before.

That was why he hurried to explain.

"I came here this time just to apologize to you. I know I was wrong. I will slowly make it up to you in the future. Give me a chance, okay?"

His tone was sincere, and Qingqing hesitated after hearing it.

She was a soft-hearted person to begin with, and coupled with her initial liking for Xiao Su, her resolute heart began to waver.

Finally, the little guy relented and said softly, "Okay, Uncle Xiao, I'll forgive you this time, but you can't take Qingqing away from me in the future. I want to stay with Daddy."

"Don't worry, my dear,"

Fu Sihuai, who heard the entire conversation, didn't know what to say: "..."

I have given examples for such a long time, and I take them out for a walk from time to time, and in the end, I forgave them so easily.

Does Xiao Su's appearance make him particularly trustworthy to children?

And Qingqing is so easy to coax, so easy that he is a little worried that the little girl will be deceived when she grows up.

Looking at the child's happy expression, he confirmed his previous thoughts.

Xiao Su was as happy as a fool. In his heart at this moment, Qingqing was indeed a little angel!

"Thank you, Qingqing. If you want anything, just come to me and I'll buy it for you."

He tried to use his money to resolve the rift between the two, but Fu Sihuai had already said this.

Xiao Su barely ate a few bites of the meal. When the banquet ended, he still didn't give up, thinking of striking while the iron was hot, and went straight to the Fu family.

Tan Hongru also went, and Fu Sihuai was going to invite him to dinner in the evening, at his home.

Before going home, he called the housekeeper to inform him that he would have guests tonight.

The Fu family.

When the butler was arranging the menu, he was caught by Mr. Fu.

After listening for a few seconds, he walked in with some confusion and asked, "What's going on? Who wants to come to our house?"

"The Fourth Master said that Miss Qingqing's master will be here tonight."

Qing girl’s master?

Mr. Fu repeated it in his mind, and then he remembered.

"That flower gardener? He actually took Qing girl to that little restaurant to become a disciple. I was wondering why the house was so quiet today."

Mr. Fu was a little annoyed. "How boring! You spend all day teaching the kids those boring skills. If you have this time, you might as well accompany me to Tiger Mountain."

The butler carefully echoed this, and after a moment's thought, he added, "There are 360 professions, and every profession has its own top talent. The teacher that the Fourth Master is looking for shouldn't be an ordinary person."

"No matter how extraordinary he is, he is still a flower grower." Mr. Fu has been very angry since he found out that it was this flower grower who was trying to steal his heir.

"Hmph, when he comes, I'll have to see how powerful this guy is. Could he possibly be able to turn flowers into fairy flowers?"
