My nemesis is pregnant, the baby is mine

The moonlight was not too bright, and several people were standing under the gazebo, and the thin moonlight was completely blocked by the gazebo. Shen Mo couldn't see the expression on Qi Yunshu's face clearly, but he only knew that he was a little weird today.

"Do you want me to take you back?" Shen Mo asked.

He had seen several times when Qi Yunshu suddenly fell ill, it was quite scary, and he was somewhat worried.

This place is so dark that no one comes and goes. If Qi Yunshu really collapsed here, no one would notice even if he broke his throat.

"No need." Qi Yunshu squeezed out a hoarse voice from his throat.

Shen Mo's approach and concern made his body tremble even more.

The more Shen Mo treats him kindly, the more he will not be able to forget Shen Mo's kindness, and he will only sink deeper and deeper and become more unable to extricate himself.

"Is it really all right?" Shen Mo didn't believe it, because Qi Yunshu's voice sounded like he was about to cry.

Qi Yunshu couldn't cry, so she must be feeling unwell.

"Really." Qi Yunshu took a deep breath to recover his voice, he tried his best to smile, and said with a smile, "It's you, why are you here?"

"I walked around the nearby market with them." Shen Mo pointed to the fire dragon-like market that lit up among the abandoned houses in the distance.

In the dark of night, there was a faint voice coming from over there.

Qi Yunshu vaguely remembered that the housekeeper had told him that there was a gathering here, but he had been in a daze recently, so he didn't remember it.

"Then I won't bother you." Qi Yunshu withdrew his gaze, he really didn't have the courage to stay by Shen Mo's side any longer.

After the words were finished, Qi Yunshu turned around and was about to go back without waiting for Shen Mo to speak again, but he was walking too fast and stumbled.

At that moment, something white fell out of his arms in the darkness and landed on the ground with a crisp sound.

It was a small white porcelain bottle, which seemed to be a medicine bottle containing some kind of medicine. After it fell to the ground, the stopper on it was loosened, and it rolled aside.

Seeing this, Shen Mo wanted to help pick it up, but Qi Yunshu had already bent over to pick it up and left quickly.

Qi Yunshu left in a hurry, and the three people left behind could only watch his back disappear at the end of the path.

Qi Yunshu left, Shen Mo, who was still bent over, was about to stand up, when his movements suddenly paused.

Not far from his hand, a pill that should have rolled out of the bottle that Qi Yunshu just dropped on the ground was lying there pitifully.

The pill was pitch black under the cover of night, with only a vague outline, if it wasn't because it was right in front of Shen Mo, he probably wouldn't have noticed it.

Shen Mo's movements paused, he bent down and picked up the pill, put it under his nose and sniffed it gently, only smelling a smell of medicine.

Can't see the name, Shen Mo thought about it but didn't throw it away, but put it away.

Qi Yunshu walked in a hurry, while Mr. Jia and Xiong Lei, who hadn't noticed Shen Mo's movements, looked at each other with doubts in their eyes.

"What happened to him?" Xiong Lei was puzzled.

Because Xiong's family and Qi's family often have business contacts, Xiong Lei and Qi Yunshu can be regarded as old acquaintances. They don't say how enthusiastic they are when they meet each other, but they can also chat a few words.

It was the first time that Xiong Lei met Qi Yunshu who left without saying hello like Qi Yunshu now.

"Did something happen to the Qi family recently?" Mr. Jia also felt a little strange, as Qi Yunshu seemed to be avoiding them.

They didn't recognize Qi Yunshu when they entered the gazebo because it was too dark to see clearly, but Qi Yunshu should have recognized them, after all, they had been talking all the time.

"Didn't you hear that something happened to the Qi family?" Xiong Lei returned to the gazebo, "What could happen to the Qi family? The appraisal meeting a while ago made the Qi family very popular now. I heard that there are so many orders in the wood field that they are busy. But come."

After watching it for a while, Mr. Jia went back to the gazebo and sat down. He was not interested in the affairs of the Qi family.

Mr. Jia was originally a carpenter, and he always relied on craftsmanship for his livelihood when he was young, but his body is no longer as good as when he was young, so now he mainly makes a living by dumping wood, and he and Qi Yunshu are half of the same industry.

Under the shadow of the gazebo, Shen Mo looked thoughtfully at the direction where Qi Yunshu left and remained silent for a moment, then returned to the gazebo.

The moonlight was hazy, the night breeze was cool, sitting in the gazebo, listening to the sound of bargaining in the market from a distance, it was quite pleasant.

The bazaar was surrounded by ruins, and when the lights were lit at night, it looked like a fire dragon circling in the darkness from a distance.

In the market, in a yard that was temporarily cleared up.

The courtyard has long been dilapidated, and although it has been tidied up temporarily and tables and chairs have been placed in the courtyard, it still cannot hide the downcast and musty smell.

In the courtyard, three people sat around a small table.

Candles were lit on the table, and the flickering candles dazzled people with the night wind.

Not long after, a young man hurried in from outside the door, and as soon as he entered the door, he yelled, "Master, that thing is sold!"

"Oh?" One of the three put down the teacup.

It was an old man, about the same age as Hong Lao, and he should also be a carpenter. Although he was not young, he had strong hands and feet and bright eyes.

Not only him, but also the other three people in this room.

The young man came to the table and chattered quickly, "I just went to ask, just like what you said, master, the thing was bought by Shen Mo!"

"Hahaha..." Hearing this, the old man slapped his thigh and burst out laughing.

He smiled very happily, but one of the two people next to him flattened his mouth, slightly dissatisfied.

"How is it? It's just like what I said, isn't it a fake move?" The old man smiled enough, and turned his head to look at the man with the flat mouth proudly.

"Hmph, it's hard to say, maybe it's just a coincidence?" The flat-mouthed person didn't want to admit it.

"You just have to be stubborn!" The old man embarrassed him, "But we have agreed before, I will not be responsible if the material is found and bought."

The market started, and when they learned that Shen Mo would come, the three of them made a bet.

The three of them set up a trap and deliberately let the bodhisattva out, just to see if Shen Mo could find out.

The thing came from the flat-mouthed person, and if it was bought by Shen Mo, he would admit that Shen Mo was not a fake.But if Shen Mo didn't find out, then the old man would have to make a bet to give the flat-mouthed old man a piece of huanghuali wood twice the size.

Now that things are bought by Shen Mo, the flat-mouthed person loses, and also loses the bodhisattva.

"Well, he is qualified for the exchange meeting! Don't say anything else, I think people are very capable." The old man was happy when he won the bet, and he talked a lot.

Hearing this, the flat-mouthed person flattened his mouth again and remained silent.

The old man was happy with a smile on his face.

Seeing this, the third person who had been silent beside him also put down the cup in his hand. He glanced at the distance and said with a smile, "It seems that this exchange meeting is going to be lively."

The market is only held at night, and when the sky is slightly bright, the pedestrians on the street will slowly disperse.

After the three of Shen Mo walked around again, they went back separately.

This time, Shen Mo's trip to the gathering was quite fruitful. Apart from the jewelry box and huanghuali at the beginning, Shen Mo also found some small things later.

A double-layered food box somewhat similar to the jewelry box, a small bench, and a small wooden barrel for no one knew what to do with it.

The reason why Shen Mo bought these things was not because the wood was special, but purely because he found it interesting.

The double-layer food box and the jewelry box look very similar, especially the carving technique, which is almost done in one go, it looks a bit like the same person's handwriting.

As for the small bench, Shen Mo bought it because its wood grain is very special. It is not made of some rare material, it should be made of wood with strange grain.

The same is true for the small wooden barrel, which is only the size of a fist, and I don't know what it is used for. Shen Mo bought it just to find out.

When Shen Mo went back, he was holding a bunch of things, while Jia Lao and Xiong Lei were much more relaxed, almost returning empty-handed.

It's not the first time they have come to this kind of gathering, and they have already experienced Shen Mo's freshness. Now, if they don't see something that can move their hearts, the two of them will generally not spend such unjust money.

On the second day and the third day, Shen Mo also went shopping, but he didn't stay long. He had already finished all the things he could shop in, and he didn't see anything new in the market in the next two days.

When Shen Mo saw Mr. Jia again, it was already the morning of the fourth day, and they made an appointment to pick up the mechanism box.

Early in the morning, when Shen Mo was stepping on the clock to go to work, he saw Yu Yan standing at the door talking to Mr. Jia from a distance.

Yu Yan's attitude was respectful, as if he wanted to ask Mr. Jia to sit down nearby, but Mr. Jia didn't agree. He looked expectant and anxious, and couldn't calm down at all.

Seeing Shen Molai, Mr. Jia hurriedly walked towards this side, "Why are you so slow?"

Jia Lao is in a hurry, Shen Mo is not in a hurry.He led Mr. Jia into the door unhurriedly, and walked towards his own small room in the workshop.

It's time to start working in the workshop, and most of the carpenters here are already busy.

Everyone knows Mr. Jia, even those who don't know his name.Seeing Shen Mo leading Old Jia into the room at this moment, everyone couldn't help discussing curiously, how could Shen Mo know Old Jia?And it seems that the two are quite familiar with each other.

Old Jia followed Shen Mo into the inner room, and as soon as he entered the door, he couldn't wait to look around, trying to find the trick box Shen Mo made for him.

He searched around but couldn't find it, so he could only look at Shen Mo anxiously.

I saw Shen Mo walking to a corner of the room. He first removed some wooden boards placed beside him, and then took out an unpainted mechanism box from inside.

Shen Mo took out the things, and before he could turn his head, he stretched out a hand and snatched the box away.

Mr. Jia was still that impatient. As soon as he got the things, he immediately found a stool beside him and sat down, and then started to fiddle with them.

Old Jia watched Shen Mo do it from beginning to end before, and he also thought about it by himself during the time after returning home, and even tried it.

Although he didn't succeed, Jia Lao thought that he had already figured out the way, until he took the box in his hand.

Jia Lao tried to unlock the code, but he tossed and tossed, but the box still didn't respond.

Mr. Jia is also a carpenter himself, so his curiosity about the box is not just a curiosity, he is even more curious about the structure of the box itself.So he couldn't solve it. Instead of being dejected, he became more and more motivated.

Old Jia moved the stool to sit and play beside him, but Shen Mo ignored him and went about his own business.

In the big workshop, the workshops in charge of several master masters are separated. Everyone usually does their own work without interfering with each other. When there is work, they do work, and when there is no work, they each process some materials for backup.

The Qi family has its own lumberyard and its own workshop, and there is no shortage of raw materials, but there are still many steps between the timber being cut down and being usable in the lumberyard.

Logs cannot be directly used to make furniture. If wet new logs are used directly to make furniture, they will easily become deformed and deteriorate.

From being cut down to being usable, the logs need to be dried in the middle.

The so-called drying in the shade refers to dehydrating the newly cut logs to make them shape for easy use.

There are many ways to dry in the shade, the most common ones are natural air drying or artificial temperature-controlled air drying in a shade drying room.

Most of the natural air-drying is cut down and thrown directly into the forest. Depending on the condition of the wood, it will be natural after a few months or even a few years.

Most of the natural air-drying methods are relatively slow. Half of the Qi family's business is mainly buying and selling wood. Naturally, it is impossible to wait that long, so Qi's wood is artificially dried.

The artificial air-drying room can control the temperature, which can speed up the drying speed of logs.

The logs are dried in the shade, some are sold directly, and some are transported to the workshop.

Not to mention the ones that are sold, the logs that are transported to the workshop for the workshop need to be peeled and processed into sheets or other shapes for later use.

In the outer room of the workshop, the craftsmen are busy processing wood to make up for what was used to make Lei's food boxes some time ago.

Inside the house, Shen Mo took out the Bodhisattva he bought from the market earlier, took the base, and studied it aside.

Huanghuali is more expensive than gold, but broken huanghuali are worthless.

This huanghuali has been used as the base of the Bodhisattva for a long time, and the top layer has been corroded, and there is still a hole in the middle of the material.

The usable part of this material is far less than what he saw. After thinking about it for a while, Shen Mo already knew that this material can only be used as small decorations or bracelets.

After the huanghuali, Shen Mo took the jewelry box on the side and began to study it.

There was a layer of varnish on the jewelry box, and the varnish had peeled off after a long time. Shen Mo took a chisel and patiently removed all the varnish bit by bit, revealing the original appearance of the box.

Get rid of the patent leather, and the engraving on the top of the box will be better and more neat.

Shen Mo studied for a while, and then took a piece of palm-sized waste from the side, and tried to carve it according to the technique on it.

Shen Mo is no stranger to carving. Although this carving technique is somewhat unique, it is not impossible for Shen Mo to do it. He tried to learn to carve for a while, and he knew it in his heart.

With an idea in mind, Shen Mo put down the scrap, and was about to find something else to do, but the scrap had already been snatched away.

At some point, Mr. Jia had already stood beside him. He took a look at the scrap that Shen Mo had learned to carve, touched it, and looked up at Shen Mo with a bit of surprise in his eyes.

Mr. Jia didn't have much to say about the engraving technique on the box, so it can be seen that it was really expected.

Seeing that Shen Mo bought the box before, Mr. Jia thought that Shen Mo was only curious, but he didn't expect Shen Mo to learn it, and his learning was as good as before.

"You can also carve?" Mr. Jia put down the scrap, and looked at Shen Mo with more surprise.

His so-called 'knowledge' is not just about being able to do sculpture, because Shen Mo obviously doesn't just 'know' about sculpture. If it's just the level of knowing, it's impossible to learn such a level just by looking at it.

"A little bit." Shen Mo chuckled.

Old Jia looked at Shen Mo and then at the scraps on the table, for a moment he didn't know what to say.Shen Mo's so-called "knowledge a little bit" probably deviates quite a bit from the common sense in the eyes of ordinary people.

"Have you unlocked the box?" Shen Mo finished his work, and finally thought about taking care of Mr. Jia.

"No." Mr. Jia touched the mechanism box that had been kept by his side and was reluctant to let go, "I'll go back first."

Shen Mo glanced at the box, and the box still didn't intend to untie it at all. He asked, "Do you want me to tell you the method?"

Deciphering this box is not easy at all, if you don't even know the correct solution, you will have to worry about it.

"No, I'll go back and figure out a solution myself." Hearing this, Mr. Jia quickly hugged the box in his arms, as if he was afraid that Shen Mo would snatch it away.

Holding the box, Old Jia and Shen Mo bid farewell.He has been out for long enough this time, so he has to go back as soon as possible.

Before leaving, Mr. Jia told Shen Mo the address of his shop, so that Shen Mo could go to him if he had something to do, and told Shen Mo if he had any strange things, don't forget him.

Shen Mo agreed, but he couldn't laugh or cry in his heart. Mr. Jia was clearly afraid that he would have something interesting to forget about him.

It is said that old children are old children, and the older people are, the more they look like children, and Mr. Jia really agreed with this sentence.

Shen Mo sent Jia Lao away, went back to the back room, and continued to study the double-layered food box that was somewhat similar to the jewelry box.

The carving techniques on the two objects are coherent and spiritual, making Shen Mo a little curious about their creators.

Carpenters in this world seem to have a special liking for carving, and there are many people who delve into this field. Yang Renxiong and others don't mention it. The maker of this jewelry box and double-layer food box should be one of them.

Shen Mo was thinking about it when there was a knock on the door suddenly.

The person who came was Yu Yan.

Yu Yan entered the door and saw Shen Mo thinking about carving, he smiled, "Speaking of which, I have never seen you carving anything."

So far, the things that Shen Mo took out are all eye-catching with their unique structures, and he has never seen him spend his thoughts on decoration.

"It's just useless." Shen Mo said.

To decorate for the sake of decoration is itself upside down.

Yu Yan smiled and did not continue this topic.

In his opinion, being able to be valued by Qi Yunshu and becoming the master of the Qi family at a young age, Shen Mo must have some strange things of his own.

"What's the matter?" Shen Mo asked back.

"It's something." Yu Yan took out the slip from his sleeve and handed it to Shen Mo, "This is an additional slip from the Xiong family."

Shen Mo took it and looked at it. Xiong Lei added nearly five times the amount to the previous order.

The Xiong family has catering businesses everywhere, and food boxes are a must-have for them, and the demand is naturally high.

The number of orders Xiong Lei gave them last time was already quite large, and adding this order, it was already considered a very large sum.

"The food box you designed has a very good response. I have heard people mention it more than once in our Qingcheng. It is said that the Xiongjia food box is very unique and impressive. Many people even order take-out specially. , just to take a look."

"Because of this, I have also received many inquiries from customers. It seems that they are all interested in you. There is an order that is already being negotiated. If it goes well, it should be settled in a few days."

The battle of Shen Molei's family can be said to be an instant success, and many people in Qingcheng now know that a young master chef has come to the Qi family workshop, and he is also a master master with excellent craftsmanship.

With this relationship, Shen Mo's position in the Qi family's big workshop and even in Qingcheng is considered stable, and as long as he doesn't miss out on business trips, he will surely be able to make a name for himself slowly.

Yu Yan is in charge of the list business, so he naturally pays attention to these.

Shen Mo's reputation can increase the list of workshops, which is a great thing for him.

Shen Mo looked at the list while listening to his words, and seeing Yu Yan's voice fell, he said, "For this amount of list, the materials stored here are somewhat insufficient, and I trouble you to send some more as soon as possible."

Seeing that Shen Mo's reaction to becoming famous was mediocre, Yu Yan nodded with a helpless smile, "I'm already making arrangements. This time, the Xiong family is in a hurry, so I will let other idle workshops also adjust Someone came over to help with the emergency."

Shen Mo is no different, the current manpower is indeed somewhat insufficient. If calculated according to the number of people, it will take at least more than a month to complete this list.

As for the famous thing that Yu Yan said, he didn't take it to heart, what he wanted was far more than this level, naturally it was impossible to be complacent about this level.

Shen Mo got up and walked towards the door. He came outside, summoned all the people, and told everyone about the list.

"Use up the materials you have first, and the ones that are not enough will be delivered tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. This time there is a time limit, and the speed may be a little faster." Shen Mo ordered.

Hearing this, everyone dispersed and got busy.The workshop has a list, they have something to do, and they get a commission. From the result, it is a good thing for everyone.

After Shen Mo finished giving orders and accepted the order, he turned around and saw that Yu Yan hadn't left yet, as if he was waiting for him.

Yu Yan is also a busy man. He is not only in charge of Shen Mo's workshop, but also the other six workshops in the big workshop, as well as a series of purchase and shipment list negotiations.

So except for the first few days when he came here, Yu Yan often came to see what he needed, and he was always busy with his own affairs.

"Is there anything else?" Shen Mo walked over.

"Actually, Head Lei wants to tell you something, but he's too embarrassed to speak directly, so let me come over and see what you mean first." Yu Yan's face became a little weird, as if he didn't know what to say. .

"Xiong Lei?" Shen Mo raised his eyebrows, what could make Xiong Lei feel embarrassed to speak?

"You come with me first." Yu Yan took the lead and walked out the door, Shen Mo saw this and followed.

The two went out and walked towards Yu Yan's study.Yu Yan is the person in charge of this workshop, so naturally there is also a special office here.

It was a small courtyard, and there were some people who seemed to be in charge of various business matters.

Yu Yan led Shen Mo into his study room, then took out a bunch of things from the side and put them in front of Shen Mo, it was a pile of wooden handles.

Common bench boxes, rare wood carving crafts, all kinds of weird things.

Shen Mo glanced at Yu Yan, then picked up the things on the table and looked at them again.The person who makes these things should be a veteran, and the workmanship is not picky, and they should have been doing it for many years.

"How?" Yu Yan asked.

Shen Mo put down the things in his hands, and said what he saw, and finally said, "Everything is pretty good."

Hearing what Shen Mo said, Yu Yan heaved a sigh of relief, he looked up at the door and nodded lightly, and then Xiong Lei, who had been standing outside the door at some point, walked in.

Xiong Lei came here today obviously to tidy up a bit, and he looks much more energetic than usual.When he came in, his face was full of nervousness, and seeing Shen Mo looking at him, he almost had the same hands and feet.

When Xiong Lei came in, he cleared his throat first, then pulled away the stool beside him, motioning for Shen Mo to sit down and talk.

Shen Mo was baffled by him, he walked to the side and sat down, and then looked at Yu Yan and Xiong Lei who didn't know what the hell they were doing with more doubts.

"The thing is like this, I have something to tell you..." Xiong Lei was nervous.

"But it doesn't matter."

"Do you accept apprentices?" Xiong Lei asked.

Shen Mo was stunned when he heard the words, and for a moment wondered if he had heard it wrong.

Shen Mo said nothing, Xiong Lei immediately became a little anxious, he stepped forward and hurriedly said, "I know this request is a bit abrupt, but I mean it!"

Shen Mo has regained his senses at this moment, he looked at the agitated Xiong Lei in front of him, "You want to worship me as a teacher?"

Although Shen Mo has only come to Qingcheng not long ago, he has a certain understanding of Xiong Lei.

Xiong Lei doesn't rely on carpentry skills for a living, but he is particularly interested in carpentry work, and usually studies it a lot.

He is willing to work hard and is willing to spend time in pondering, plus his own talent is not bad. In the past few years, he has also made some names in the carpenter's trade, at least in Qingcheng, he can be regarded as a celebrity in the industry.

Qi Yunshu had sent him a famous post at the Qi Family Appraisal Meeting before, but Xiong Lei didn't bother to participate.

In the eyes of outsiders, the finale of the Qi family is very attractive, and if they can stand out in the appraisal meeting, they will definitely become famous. As long as they can win, they will gain both fame and fortune.

But in Xiong Lei's view, this is not attractive at all.

Xiong Lei himself has his own business, and he has money for himself. Although rare materials are a bit tricky, they are not impossible to buy.

As for fame, Xiong Lei is already a famous person, at least in Qingcheng he already has a reputation.

The reason why he appeared at the appraisal meeting at the beginning was entirely because he had seen Shen Mo's blind stool and heard about the mortise and tenon and the mechanism box, so he went to see the excitement.

At that time, he was already quite interested in Shen Mo, and after the food box incident, he became even more curious and admirable towards Shen Mo.

But so far, Xiong Lei didn't think much about it.

The idea of ​​wanting to worship Shen Mo as a teacher really came up after visiting the market with Shen Mo.

Xiong Lei was very touched by the huanghuali incident before, and he has been thinking about it since he returned.

What Shen Mo could see at a glance, but he had to hold it in his hand and look at it repeatedly. The gap was a huge blow to Xiong Lei, and even made him doubt himself for a while.

Xiong Lei has been in the industry for more than [-] years. If you want to say that he has made a name for himself, he is indeed a little famous, but if you want to say more, he is far from enough.

If you really want to leave this Qingcheng, not to mention the nearby cities, if you go a little farther, no one will know his existence at all.

Xiong Lei is self-aware, and what he really struggles with is not the false name, but something deeper.

Shen Mo can do things that he can't do, and can also design things that he can't even imagine.

Xiong Lei has been in the industry for more than 20 years. At the beginning, everything he saw was novel and he wanted to try everything. At that time, his progress was obvious.But slowly, he realized that no matter what he did, he could no longer improve.

Do the same job ten times or twenty times, there is no difference except that the speed is faster.

If he could learn from Shen Mo, it would undoubtedly be an opportunity for him, a chance to make a breakthrough.

"I'm serious!" Xiong Lei became excited, "Or do you have any conditions? If you have conditions, just say it."

He is not for fame and fortune, he just wants to go further on this road.He loved carpentry, and had loved it for most of his life.

Xiong Lei was like this all of a sudden, Shen Mo was caught off guard, and he was stunned before returning to his senses.

Shen Mo did not refuse immediately, but fell into deep thought. Shen Mo had never thought about the issue of accepting apprentices before.

From the very beginning, he had a very clear goal. He wanted to take back the Muchang of the Shen family. This required enough reputation, fame and financial resources, so he worked hard for it.

But with the understanding of this world, Shen Mo gradually had some ideas of his own.

He hopes that the word mortise and tenon can be known in this world, and he also hopes that some things in the world he was in before can be recognized and passed on here.

These two ideas do not conflict, so Shen Mo worked harder for it.But at this moment, Xiong Lei gave him a new way of thinking.

If he wants what he knows to be recognized and passed on, it is inevitable to accept disciples. If he also treasures himself, then what is the point of all he has done?

Wouldn't these disappear from this world after a hundred years?A hundred years later, another hundred years later, all this may be like a flash in the pan and no one will remember it.

"It's not impossible for you to be a teacher." Shen Mo restrained his mind, and looked at Xiong Lei in front of him seriously.

Shen Mo didn't intend to cherish himself with his broom, but he also didn't intend to teach endlessly.

If you want to learn from him, talent is second, and character must not be bad.

No matter how talented Bai Hao and the others are, Shen Mo will never keep them, that kind of people, handing them over to them will only discredit Mortise and his previous world.

"Then—" Xiong Lei became more and more excited, his eyes lit up, and his face was flushed red.

"I have my rules, if you want to worship under me, you must follow my rules." Shen Mo said slowly.

Shen Mo sat quietly on the upper seat, his face was stern, and his eyes were as deep as a deep pool.

An invisible force spread from him, making the atmosphere solemn and solemn, and also made the other two people in the room put away their smiles.

Hearing what Shen Mo said, Xiong Lei gradually calmed down.

Apprenticeship is not just a matter of just calling a master or apprentice. If you really want to learn something and want to be a teacher, you must pay the corresponding conditions and prices.

The condition and the price are not money, but more other things.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that one day is a teacher and a lifelong father. If you want the master to teach you everything, the apprentice must be in awe. If you rebel against the teacher and don't listen, then what is the point of being a master?

"You can go back and think about it first, and then come and talk to me about it." Shen Mo looked at Xiong Lei, his eyes were as sharp as a knife like ice, as if he could see through Xiong Lei's whole body.

Naturally, Xiong Lei also has his worries. As the head of the Xiong family, he has a huge family business. If he really worships Shen Mo as his teacher, and he calls down from his master, the Xiong family will not say that Shen Mo's horse is looking forward to the saddle. Shen Mo respectfully.

This obeisance is not only related to whether Shen Mo has the intention to accept apprentices, but also whether Xiong Lei really has the intention to apprentice.

Xiong Lei remained silent, his expression changed again and again.Shen Mo didn't urge him, he also had his own considerations.

Although Xiong Lei was a little unhappy with him at the beginning, Shen Mo could also see that he really liked the carpenter's profession, his talent was not bad, and he was willing to spend time working hard to figure it out.

As for him, Shen Mo is willing to teach, but if Xiong Lei has followed him to learn things and is still the head of the Xiong family, then he can't teach and can't teach.

Not just Xiong Lei, but any apprentice in the future. If you can't give up your first position and can't stop learning, then it's better not to learn.

The atmosphere in the room fell into silence for a while, Yu Yan looked at Shen Mo and then at Xiong Lei, he wanted to say a few words to ease the atmosphere, after all, Xiong Lei is a regular customer of their Qi family, no matter what he can't refute Save face and offend people.

But after thinking about it, Yu Yan chose to remain silent.

Although Yu Yan hadn't worked as a carpenter for a few days, he knew a lot about the carpenter industry, and he also understood their concerns.

"Think slowly, I'll go back and do my work first." Shen Mo got up and walked towards the door.

He still has to be responsible for the Xiong family's list to the end, and he will be busy for the next half a month.

The sun was shining outside the house, and the sun was so bright that it dazzled people's eyes. Shen Mo took two steps and then stopped to look at Yu Yan who was beside him.

He remembered the time he met Qi Yunshu before, Qi Yunshu's situation that night was a little strange, "How is the head of Qi?"

Yu Yan was a little surprised that Shen Mo would ask this, but still told the truth, "Recently, the head of the family has not been in good health, and has been recuperating behind closed doors to thank guests, and he has put down a lot of business matters."

Hearing that Qi Yunshu was really ill again, Shen Mo frowned lightly.

Although he didn't want to worry about whether Qi Yunshu was the person that night since he asked directly last time, but he still couldn't get rid of this thought from the bottom of his heart.

After all, everything that happened has already happened, if you want to pretend not to know, it would be too self-deceiving.

"If you have something to do, I can tell it on your behalf." Yu Yan assumed that Shen Mo had something to do.

The matter of the Shen family and the Qi family is not a secret. Yu Yan really didn't know about it at first, but after a long time, he heard about it.

Knowing that Shen Mo is actually the son of the Shen family, Qi Yunshu put him in the Qi family's big workshop to be a master chef. Yu Yan was also surprised and puzzled.

Before Shen Mo came here, Qi Yunshu asked him to take care of him. After Shen Mo came here, he also asked about Shen Mo's situation.Regarding Xiong Lei's matter, he personally went out to find Xiong Lei.

These things don't look like things that enemies would do, even if Shen Mo is really capable and Qi Yunshu wants to win him over, it would be too diligent.

"No, I'm just asking." Shen Mo shook his head.

He had asked Qi Yunshu what was going on before, and Qi Yunshu only said that he was overworked, and now even if he asked again, he would probably only get the same answer.

Thinking of this, Shen Mo remembered the pill that he had picked up from the ground before, and he had kept the pill since he brought it back.

If you can figure out what kind of medicine Qi Yunshu is taking, you will naturally figure out what kind of illness Qi Yunshu is suffering from, or is she deliberately hiding something...

Shen Mo looked up at Yu Yan, Yu Yan was very familiar with this Qingcheng, he must know where there is a medical clinic on this street, but he belongs to Qi Yunshu.

Shen Mo thought about it, gave up the idea of ​​asking Yu Yan for help, and looked back at Xiong Lei who was still standing stupidly behind him.

Xiong Lei's face was still changing, obviously thinking about apprenticeship.

Shen Mo stepped forward to wake him up, "Master Xiong, can I ask you for help with one thing?"

Xiong Lei came back to his senses, he nodded without thinking, "Just say it."

Even if the two of them can't become a master-student relationship in the end, Xiong Lei is not prepared to break up with Shen Mo. He still wants to make friends with Shen Mo.

"This way please." Shen Mo made a gesture of invitation, and led Xiong Lei towards the door.

Yu Yan was puzzled, but it was none of his business, so he didn't keep up.

Shen Mo took Xiong Lei and walked towards the workshop. After returning to the small room in the workshop, he took out the small pill that he brought back a few days ago from the place where the mechanism box was placed before.

The pill was black, and he packed it in a small wooden box, which looked a little cute.

Shen Mo handed the box to Xiong Lei, and said under his suspicious gaze, "Can you help me find out what kind of medicine this is and what kind of disease it is for?"

Shen Mo could also go to the doctor on the street and ask, but there is only one pill, and if the doctor squeezes the pill but doesn't recognize it, he can't get another one.

Although Shen Mo doesn't understand medical principles, he also knows how to follow such a path.
