With the silence of Shan Wuju. The atmosphere in the living room gradually became quiet, and you could even hear the slight flapping of the wings of the birds in the courtyard through the window... Everyone's eyes subconsciously focused on Wei Tu, wanting to hear what this single martial arts review was about. How did the disciples respond? Most people, or ninety-nine percent of them, looked forward to it, hoping that Wei Tu would comply with Shan Wuju's wishes and agree. Including Shan Yangong, the only son of the Shan family who had previously been at odds with Shan Fang. The Shan family could tell that the old man was silent at this moment because he did not want to force Wei Tu to agree, so as not to hurt the relationship between master and disciple. ——He did not explicitly reject Shan Fang’s request, and the implication was obvious. Even without this problem, the Shan family could still guess what the old man was thinking. When people get old, they all hope that the family business they have created will continue and that their proud skills will be inherited by their descendants. Shan Yiwu is the descendant that Shan Wuju values who inherits his martial arts in the family. Everyone in the room knew that Shan Wu had chosen Wei Tu as his disciple, and he must have wanted to protect the Shan family's foundation after he gained fame.
Wei Tu agreed to teach Shan Yi Wu to practice martial arts. Although it is not closely related to this, it can also be seen from this move whether Wei Tu is "purely filial". If he doesn't help with "little things", then it's questionable whether Wei Tu can step forward when the Shan family's survival is at stake. "This matter..." After a moment of silence, Wei Tu finally spoke. He bowed slightly and said, "This matter depends entirely on Master's instructions." The words fell. Everyone frowned secretly. After spending more than a month together with Wei Tu, they knew that although Wei Tu had a respectful personality, they also knew that this disciple who could please Shan Wuju was by no means someone who couldn't hear nice words or read people's thoughts. Consolidate goods. They all agreed that Wei Tu's answer could be better, more brilliant, and more pleasing to Shan Wuju. Even if it is a word of rejection... ——For example: The master’s teachings are deeper and he is more suitable to teach Yiwu than himself. The disciple cannot bring trouble to himself and disturb the master’s enjoyment of Yisun. It all works! "It's all based on my orders?" Shan Wuju raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Wei Tu. As Wei Tu lowered his head as he bowed, Shan Wuju's eyes were just level with Wei Tu's eyes as he sat on the chair. It's just that the former is looking at people, while the latter is looking at his toes and the ground. The two didn't look at each other. "I know what you're thinking." After a moment, Shan Wuju looked away and asked Wei Tu to stand up without having to bend down anymore. Shan Wuju prides himself that he doesn't have the ability to recognize people, but after spending so long with Wei Tu, he also knows what kind of person Wei Tu is and can guess a few thoughts. ——Wei Tu didn’t want to be attached to him as his master and the Shan family all the time. Just like his actions in Shan Family...never ask for extra property except knowledge.
The implication of saying "It all depends on the master's orders" is that the friendship will be repaid, but Wei Tu himself is not a slave of the Shan family, and he will not let the Shan family give orders and direct things. Of course, this sentence also has a hidden meaning, that is, Wei Tu can only be given orders by his master, and the rest of the Shan family does not have this qualification. "After my death, Wei Tu should be someone the Shan family can rely on." Shan Wuju thought to himself after thinking about all this. He has lived for such a long time, and although he doesn't think he has the ability to recognize people, he can still discern the good and evil in people's hearts to a certain extent. In addition, Li Yaozu, who was so picky, was so optimistic about Wei Tu that he would not hesitate to send Wei Tu to him to learn skills at the expense of his personal feelings... In this regard, Shan Wuju did not think that Li Yaozu was also blind. "If Yiwu wants to learn martial arts, when you leave in the next year, let Yiwu stay with me and I will teach him personally." "Wei Tu, I'm still busy with the martial arts exams, so I can't spare any time. The county exams in February, the government exams in April, and the Taoist exams in September and October, I can't find any time." After waiting for a moment, Shan Wuju took a deep breath and spoke to Shan Fang in a deep voice that left no room for doubt. "Dad?" Shan Fang was surprised and couldn't help shouting. This time, it is true that she plans to pass down the family's boxing skills, and it is also true that she wants Shan Yiwu to become Wei Tu's master. A true message. Thousands of books are falsely passed down. The boxing records passed down from a single family are worth thousands of gold, and they are not a common commodity. Whether it is sold or left as a family biography, it is feasible. As for letting Shan Yiwu become a disciple of Wei Tu... Shan Fang was not blind. During the past two months at home, she knew how much Shan Wuju had high hopes for Wei Tu. If Wei Tu succeeds in martial arts, he will definitely become a well-known figure in Qingshan County in the future. Whether it is used as a shield for her family or relies on her connections to revive the family business, it will be a profitable thing. But the premise is that she has to have a relationship with Wei Tu, and Shan Yiwu is a good medium. However, her wishful thinking was interrupted at the link where she was most likely to succeed. Shan Wuju refused! "Dad, we are not necessarily in a hurry right now. We will wait until Brother Wei finishes his exam. Yiwu will grow stronger for another two years..." Shan Fang's voice became softer again, and she pleaded to Shan Wuju in a tone that was almost pleading. She didn't believe it, Shan Wuju couldn't see the pros and cons. It has nothing to do with Wei Tu. In the future, once Shan Wuju leaves, the Shan family and Wei Tu will inevitably drift further and further apart. It is unclear whether this old relationship will still survive. "I'm not old yet. If Yiwu really wants to practice martial arts, there's no need for Wei Tu." Uncharacteristically, Shan Wuju uprightly rejected Shan Fang's plea this time, and was not moved by the love between father and daughter at all. Listen to this. Shan Fang pursed her lips and remained silent. She searched her mind and couldn't think of the right words to retort, so she turned to look at Shan Min sitting next to Shan Wuju, hoping to use Shan Min's words to persuade Shan Wuju.
She knew that Shan Wuju always valued Shan Min's opinions and would not object easily. However-- Something unexpected happened to Shan Fang again. Shan Minshi did not follow the script she expected. Instead, she said softly, frowned, and said something kind. "Okay, Yaonv, it's still a long time. If Yiwu and Brother Wei get married, it won't be too late to let Brother Wei teach you..." This sentence seemed to be a sign of peace, but Shan Fang knew in her heart that her son Shan Yiwu's apprenticeship with Wei Tu had gone cold and was completely rejected by the old couple. "You obviously gave me a horse, why didn't you agree to this..." Shan Fang stood in the living room, confused. The horses in Shan's stables, even if they are old horses, are good horses. Good horses that have not been castrated are valuable. One horse can be sold for nearly a hundred taels of silver. And her plea, no matter how you look at it, is beneficial to the Shan family, and it only costs the old couple's words, not a hundred taels of silver. "Also, don't worry about the boxing skills. Unless Yiwu can master five piles or learn martial arts from me and I will teach him personally, there is no need to discuss this matter." Shan Wuju said again. After finishing speaking, Shan Wuju waved his hand, signaling Shan Fang and her husband to leave. PS: Let’s talk about why Shan Fang wants to divide the property and how to divide the property. In fact, the book also shows that Shan Fang’s husband is a son-in-law, and Shan Yiwu’s surname is Shan. Therefore, even if there are legitimate grandchildren, Shan Fang also has the right to compete for the Shan family's property.
