Marry first and try love: After a flash marriage, the boss becomes wild and promiscuous

Chapter 1946 Do you mind?

Caibao glared at them warily. She didn't even have enough to eat herself, so don't expect her to share. Her mother had said that if she didn't want to share something, she didn't have to.

Wu Guoli really couldn't accept that the teacher's so-called benefactor, the genius, was actually a three-year-old kid who could still crumble cookies when he ate them.

He accidentally blurted out his true feelings, and Caibao glanced at him and said, "You're so high and mighty, you think you're so great? Show me how you can eat one without losing it."

How can you eat cookies without crumbling them? Even Sister Caibao can't do that, so no one else in the world can!!

Wu Guoli was speechless.

Is she still a three-year-old? She speaks so fluently, and what's worse, she even makes sarcastic remarks.

Wu Guoli couldn't recall what his children were like when they were three years old, but they certainly weren't like this little girl.

Hou Pingzheng gave him a stern look: "If you speak disrespectfully to my benefactor again, get out!"

Wu Guoli quickly lowered his head and sincerely apologized to Caibao.

Let's move on from this.

Hou Qianrong handed over the gifts they brought, saying, "Please accept these small tokens of our appreciation."

The store was overflowing with various tonics, including century-old ginseng, lingzhi mushrooms, donkey-hide gelatin, angelica, blood vine, abalone, sea cucumber, shark fin, fish maw, bird's nest, and many other rare and precious items that would be priceless elsewhere.

Hou Pingzheng has accumulated quite a fortune over the years, and this time, to express his gratitude to Caibao, he specially selected some of it.

Treasure craned its neck to take a look with great interest, but lost interest after just one glance.

Those medicinal herbs weren't as good as the ones she and her grandfather picked in the mountains.

But her father had taught her that she shouldn't be rude, so she glanced at her mother but didn't say anything.

Shen Xi was responsible for handling all the social obligations at home.

Shen Xi smiled and said, "Old Hou, you're too kind. There's no need for that. We didn't do anything; we just mentioned it."

"What you call a casual remark is a life-saving favor to me. We must always be grateful and repay kindness. Please accept this."

After some polite back-and-forth, Shen Xi accepted the gift, as it was almost New Year's and everyone was short of gifts.

Caibao looked at Hou Pingzheng and said to him, "Grandpa, the dark aura on your face has faded."

Hou Pingzheng became excited again: "In traditional Chinese medicine, we emphasize observation, listening, questioning, and palpation. I always thought that observation was just about looking at one's complexion and skin, but I never imagined that it could also be about observing one's qi (vital energy)."

He looked at the treasure and asked, "How could you see it?"

Caibao shrugged: "I don't know, Grandpa said it's a talent."

Hou Pingzheng: ...

I was inexplicably shown up like that, and the other person seemed genuinely sincere, as if they really believed me.

He cleared his throat and continued, "I wonder if there's any chance I could meet your grandfather and ask him for advice."

Caibao asked him directly, "Do you want to learn?"

Hou Pingzheng blushed: "If possible..."

These things all require tradition and orthodoxy, so there's no way for him to learn them.

Caibao shook his head: "Grandpa said that not everyone can learn it. I'm different. I'm super smart."

Everyone: …………

Kid, showing off is not a good habit. Is it okay to show off like this, right in front of people?

It seems to be working. Showing off this, Sister Caibao has it all figured out.

"And this is very difficult. Grandpa said that most people can't learn it; only those with the right affinity can."

Hou Pingzheng's enthusiasm grew even stronger after hearing this, and he became even more eager to learn.

"I started recognizing herbs and feeling pulses when I was five years old. I've been in this field for decades. I wouldn't say I have exceptional talent, but I'm definitely not bad at it."

A renowned traditional Chinese medicine doctor was telling Cai Bao that he was quite talented. Shen Xi found this scene incredibly awkward.

Hou Pingzheng asked sincerely, "If possible, could you please pass on a message to your grandfather, saying that I, Hou, am sincerely interested in learning and hope to become his disciple?"

what?

Shen Xi was stunned. So, he was going to be her junior brother? Was that right? Look at Hou Pingzheng's age...

She's about the same age as her master, would Old Zheng accept her?

Hou Ping-cheng continued, "Whether it succeeds or not, I will be very grateful. National Taiwan University."

Wu Guochang immediately opened a box he was carrying, which was full of porcelain, ancient books, copper coins, and other items.

"Last time I saw that you really liked copper coins, I brought my collection of coins that I've kept for many years to give to you for your enjoyment."

Oh?

Caibao became interested, ran over, stuck his head out to take a closer look, then took out a porcelain bottle, looked at it, shook it, and nodded: "I like this. It's best for storing sugar."

She took out a larger one and handed it to Shen Xi: "Mom, this is for you to dry your insoles. Don't use my little car to dry them anymore."

Wu Guoli: ...

The Ru ware celadon glaze with crackle pattern is a highly sought-after piece at auctions. It was specially purchased as a thank-you gift by a wealthy overseas businessman whom the master had saved years ago.

This thing is a national treasure, and this little guy actually said it's suitable for holding candy...

What's even more outrageous is that the vase she gave Shen Xi was a rare, expensive piece of porcelain from the Qianlong Emperor's collection. And the guy wanted to use it to dry his shoe insoles!

Although its shape does seem quite suitable for making shoe insoles.

But that's not the important thing. The important thing is that she actually used such a precious item to store candy and to air out her shoe insoles!

If those collectors knew, they'd probably be stomping their feet in tears, lamenting the waste.

But he had no right to speak here, so he wisely kept his mouth shut.

Caibao's style of taking money and doing things was exactly the same as her father's. She didn't even think about dragging it out for a few days and asking for more benefits. She immediately called Zheng Shou.

When Zheng Shouyi received the call from his beloved little darling, his mustache twitched with joy.

He kept asking his sweetheart if she missed him, and then frantically said that he missed her terribly...

Hou Pingzheng and the others: ...

Is this person really a master? Aren't masters usually aloof? The way that guy over there is so clingy is unbearable to watch.

Caibao ignored Zheng Shou's rambling and asked him, "Grandpa, are you going to take on apprentices?"

Zheng Shou abruptly stopped rambling, and after several seconds, he cautiously asked, "Sweetie, you didn't help Grandpa take on any random apprentices, did you?"

He tolerated taking on random jobs, since he was earning money to support his precious child in the future, but he couldn't accept apprentices!

This is a matter of principle! Although he has no principles when it comes to treasure, this is unacceptable.

"Oh, no, let me ask you."

Zheng Shou breathed a sigh of relief and said directly, "No matter who it is, I won't accept it."

Why?

"In my life, I have only one disciple. Whoever I take on next will die."

Hou Pingzheng: ? ? ! !

Caibao asked Hou Pingzheng, "Grandpa, if you don't mind dying, I'll talk to Grandpa for you again?"

Zheng Shou: ...

Hou Pingzheng: …………

"Maybe I shouldn't die?"
