Peerless luthier

The three of them heard the sound of firecrackers outside, Fu Sanyi said: "Will you come out to eat tomorrow New Year's Eve?"

Yin Zizhong said: "I guess there is no place."

Zhong Yi said: "Aren't they going home to eat?"

As soon as the words were spoken, Zhong Yi realized that she had said something stupid.

Fu Sanyi smiled: "As soon as our people from Jinheyuan come out, it is estimated that the nearby streets will be full."

The three of them chatted casually, and the dishes came up one after another. Fu Sanyi has an inexplicable love for shrimps. Watching him peel the shrimps like flowing water, dip them in the sauce, eat, and then peel the shrimps, Zhong Yi is happy: "Fu Sanyi, are you practicing? family."

Yin Zizhong was eating green vegetables, and glanced at Fu Sanyi: "It probably belongs to a cat."

Fu Sanyi laughed, and started to deal with a fish head with chopped peppers in a large bowl. After a while, his mouth became red and hot: "Oh! Spicy!"

He gulped and drank the water, then continued to eat bitterly.

Yin Zizhong and Zhong Yi looked at him dumbfounded, but they had a good meal.

When we got back to Xihe Residence, there were more people on the first, second and third floors.

Fu Sanyi bid farewell to them at the door: "The carving tonight is delicious! It's delicious!"

Yin Zi glanced at him again, and said, "We'll eat next time." After speaking, he went into the room.

Zhong Yi smiled at him: "Go back and rest."

Back in the room, Yin Zizhong went to wash with his things. Zhong Yi looked at the two wooden barrels. Uncle Ma had already filled them with water. There was a wooden basin in the corner, probably for washing.

Zhong Yi went to the water room with the toiletries.When he came back, Yin Zizhong was soaking his feet.

Yin Zi raised his eyes and said with disgust, "Why are you so dawdling?"

Zhong Yi scratched her head: "Where is the hot water?"

Yin Zizhong wiped his feet with a towel: "Beside the water room, that's where people line up." He put on his shoes and socks, picked up an empty wooden bucket and went out.

Zhong Yi watched him leave, closed the door, thought for a while, she sweated a little from running around today, let's solve it quickly while no one is around.

Pour water into the wooden basin, take off the thick fur, untie the clothes, half-naked upper body, put the towel in the water and prepare to wipe the body.

Ice cold water - hiss!

At this time, the door opened, and Yin Zizhong came back with a bucket full of water.

"what are you doing?"

Zhong Yi was startled, quickly closed her clothes, wrapped herself around herself, and looked back at Yin Zizhong: "Huh?"

Yin Zizhong put his hand into Zhong Yi's water basin and looked at Zhong Yi suspiciously: "Aren't you cold?"

Zhong Yi touched her nose in embarrassment and planned to pack her things.

Yin Zizhong pointed to the wooden barrel he brought back: "There is hot water in it, use it." After speaking, he went out with the foot washing water to pour water.

Zhong Yi was moved again: What a good man!

He scooped up some hot water and mixed it with the water, then continued to wipe.

After a while, the door opened again.

Fu Sanyi came in with an apple in his mouth, humming a little tune.

Zhong Yi quickly pulled up her clothes with a "swoosh" and turned her head to look.

Fu Sanyi sat down on a chair and gnawed on an apple, met Shang Zhongyi's gaze, and asked in confusion, "Why?"

Zhong Yi was embarrassed: "..."

Yin Zi came back, put the tub back in place, took off his shoes and went to bed.

Zhong Yi felt that her body was wet and hadn't been wiped clean, so Fu Sanyi gnawed on an apple and talked to Yin Zizhong at random.

Zhong Yi turned her back to them, crying inside.

After a while, he scooped up some hot water, took off his shirt and wiped it.Frightened, his face flushed, but fortunately his back was facing them, so they couldn't see.

Fu Sanyi was discussing with Yin Zizhong where and what to eat tomorrow.

Yin Zizhong leaned against the pillow, with his hands behind his head, expressionless: "You foodie."

Fu Sanyi was unhappy: "Hey! Tomorrow's New Year's Eve, don't you eat better? What do you think, young master?"

Zhong Yi was startled, he had already put on his shirt and was wiping his legs, and hurriedly said, "Huh?"

Fu Sanyi suddenly smiled "hehe", poked Yin Zizhong, and said with a sinister smile: "Look at the young master's waist, tsk tsk, look at those long legs, tsk tsk, the skin is so good!"

With a "boom", Zhong Yi's face was steaming, and she quickly sat down on the bed, pulled the quilt over with a "crash", and stared at Fu Sanyi.

Yin Zizhong smiled lightly.

Fu Sanyi leaned over and pinched Zhong Yi's face: "Tsk tsk, your skin is so good, you look good, follow me."

Zhong Yi said angrily: "Go away!"

Fu Sanyi touched his chest: "Young master, I'm so scared!"

Zhong Yi was a little puzzled, and said, "Why do you call me Young Master?"

Fu Sanyi sat back and said with a smile, "Isn't that what the uncle called you today?"

Zhong Yi: "...you just keep calling like this?"

Fu Sanyi bit the apple, and said inarticulately: "Look at your appearance, you were spoiled and spoiled, what is it if you are not a young master?"

Yin Zizhong said: "Then what are you?"

Fu Sanyi gulped down the apple juice: "What?"

Zhong Yi put on her clothes, thoughtful: "Food?"

Yin Zizhong looked at Fu Sanyi's exposed teeth while chewing, with a disgusted look on his face: "It's a bit buck-toothed."

Zhong Yi smiled "puchi".

Fu Sanyi raised his eyebrows: "I don't want you to openly attack appearance like this!"

Yin Zizhong glanced at him and began to take off his clothes.

Fu Sanyi looked at him vigilantly: "What are you doing?"

Yin Zizhong paused, and his face was gloomy: "You should go back to your room and sleep."

Fu Sanyi showed a scared expression, and looked at Yin Zizhong pitifully.

Yin Zizhong: "..."

Zhong Yi: "..."

Zhong Yi put on her inner clothes and a fur coat, and said with a smile: "Do not look at evil, do not look at evil, go back to your room early to rest."

Fu Sanyi held the apple core in one hand, and reached out to Zhong Yi with a hand stained with apple juice, as if to wipe his face.

Zhong Yi let out a scream, Fu Sanyi let out a triumphant smirk, and quickly jumped outside before Zhong Yi could fight back.

"Good night!" Fu Sanyi closed the door next door.

Gritting her teeth, Zhong Yi had no choice but to wash her face again, and went out to pour water.

When he came back, Yin Zizhong was already breathing evenly. Zhong Yi lightly blew out the lamp and lay down on the bed. It may be that he was busy running around, which caused him to fall asleep after a while.

Early the next morning, Zhong Yi was shaken awake.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Yin Zizhong faced him with a big handsome face: "It's time for you to get up."

Zhong Yi was not fully awake, and looked at Yin Zizhong in a daze, then arched his waist, bent his head, and hid under the bed.

Yin Zizhong: "..."

After a while, a big cold hand was stuffed into the bed.

One second, two seconds, three seconds... There was movement in the bed, and a figure could be seen writhing on the bed, and finally a head popped out, with cold hands stuffed into his neck.

Zhong Yi looked at Yin Zizhong sadly.

Yin Zizhong withdrew his hand expressionlessly: "When I wake up, I'm ready to eat. I bought all the breakfast. I'll go to the square to gather at Sishi."

Zhong Yi shuddered, Li Yu put on his clothes stiffly, and rushed into the water room with his things. He was the only one who was washing at this time.

A man who looked like a scholar saw him and smiled: "Are you just getting up?"

Zhong Yi twisted the towel and smiled stiffly: "Well, I slept a little late."

Back in the room, the sun was shining all over the room, Fu Sanyi devoured the steamed buns, Yin Zizhong poured him a cup of hot water, Zhong Yi thanked him, and quickly started eating.

As soon as he entered, Zhong Yi's eyes widened.

Yin Zizhong asked: "What's wrong?"

Zhong Yi's eyes glowed green: "It's delicious!"

Yin Zizhong's voice was flat: "You replayed the scene that happened just now, and your demeanor and eyes are very well interpreted."

Zhong Yi immediately looked sideways at Fu Sanyi, who was still gobbling it up.

Zhong Yi came to her senses: "..."

After finishing breakfast, the three of them went out together and met many people who went with them.

The square was full of people, shouting loudly. After a while, it seemed that some important person came and yelled a few words, and the audience fell silent.

At this time, students were not divided into categories, and they all stood casually. Fu Sanyi stood to the left of Zhong Yi and said softly: "This is Master Shi, who is very strict and also has special prestige."

Zhong Yi knows that this type of master is very strict and even unreasonable, but he is very responsible.

Yin Zizhong stood behind Zhong Yi, heard it, and asked in a low voice, "What do you teach?"

At this time, the people above said something loudly, and the crowd began to whisper.

Fu Sanyi took the opportunity to say: "The one who teaches you luthiers, don't confront him. A few years ago, there was an intermediate luthier whose father was a third-rank official. He made a fuss in Jinhe Garden. No one dared to touch him. In the end Master Shi kicked him out. I went home, and after a few days, his father came..."

At this time, the crowd became quiet, and Fu Sanyi immediately silenced.

Zhong Yi listened halfway, feeling a little itchy in her heart.

After a while, a young master spoke, and the crowd whispered again.

Fu Sanyi went on to say: "His father found the old master of Jinheyuan, so Master Shi was invited to the big study..."

"What is the big study?"

"It's the place where senior old masters discuss things. It's on the sixth floor of our library... It's far away. I don't know what Master Shi said in it. Later, his father went back. After a month, someone put an inscription on it. The plaque was given to Master Shi, it is said that it was given by his father, and it is stamped with the seal of an official."

Zhong Yi and Yin Zizhong listened thoughtfully.

After the game was over, they began to sort into categories, and each took out their cards to receive the official jade cards.

Fu Sanyi took out his blue jade badge and said goodbye to them: "See you later!"

Zhong Yi and Yin Zizhong arrived at the queuing place. Fortunately, the weather in Jinhecheng was fine today, and the sun was out like yesterday, otherwise it would be really cold to queue in the cold wind.

Afterwards, Zhong Yi was given a light green jade tablet, and Yin Zizhong was light red.

Following the flow of people into their respective buildings, Zhong Yi went up to the piano building, and the same group of musicians sat on the floor in the hall on the second floor. The floor was covered with wooden boards and a thick layer of blankets, but it was not cold.

Zhong Yi looked at the hall and sighed in his heart: Jinhe Garden is really magnificent.

Afterwards, the responsible master came over and counted their names, and the group was divided into several groups. Zhong Yi's group had the least number of people, only ten.

Zhong Yi understood that they seemed to be ranked according to grade, and the person next to him asked, "What grade are you in?"

Another replied: "Banquet level."

Listening to their conversation, I felt a little bit clearer in my heart. After a while, a middle-aged master came over, and the luthiers immediately fell silent.

Standing at the front was Master Shi, with a majestic face and a resounding voice: "From now on, you will be the luthiers of Jinhe Garden. I won't say much else. Let's each get to know your master, and then go upstairs according to the regulations."

Zhong Yi watched the masters lead a group, and looked forward expectantly like the nine luthiers around him.

Soon, a luthier came striding forward.

Zhong Yi saw his face clearly and was stunned.

——It's Master Shi.
