The second day, I complied with Second Master's orders to make the flower crowns and placed theroups and then asked ht that after yesterday, Second Master would not be willing to leave the house again He askedhim to Sky Cuckoo Pavilion, a shop that sold make-up and accessories When we reached the entrance, Second Master asked me to call the shopkeeper When the shopkeeper ca on the wooden handcart, his expression wasn't good but he still gave a greeting Second Master asked me to sit aside and then started to discuss with the shopkeeper After an hour, I saw the shopkeeper direct one of his shop assistants to bring the flower crowns into the shop and then he entered the shop
At this point, Second Master called o back” I didn't dare to ask more so I pushed the handcart back home When we reached hoht it, inside was several pieces of small silver I looked in surprise at Second Master Second Master said, ”You earned it” This this this Second Master ordered, ”In future, one batch every three days until the flower season is over Pick white blosso flowers, don't use s” I hurriedly nodded my head, ”Yes yes” Master is truly master
Earningless, there was , shi+tting and peeing, he would train his body I was afraid he would hit his head so I round After his injuries recovered, Second Master wore pants For convenience, I cut away the pant legs, sewed theether and it was just nice for Second Master to wear Second Master's body was verywas difficult Every day, I would support his back and he would practise sitting One seat will be one afternoon At the start, he would lean to the right and fall, but later after much practice, Second Master was able to sit stably
Now, Second Master was not only able to sit, he could use both hands supporting froround to move forward I asked Second Master if he wanted the craftsht for a while and shook his head He said, ”That thing is not convenient” Second Master used force on his half a left leg and gave lance I was shocked to realise that there was doubt in Second Master's eyes After waiting for half a day, he turned his face and said in a low voice, ”You come over”
I was already standing in front of you, how to come over? But Master's commands must be obeyed so I moved forward half a step Second Master said, ”Touch it” ”?” Second Master ordered i!” I did not knohat he wanted but I stretched out my hand He took his hand away and I very carefully touched it This was not the first ti I had touched it previously when applyingthe specially sewn pants, I was actually more nervous than when it was bare Second Master seehtly red -- I felt that he ered by me Obediently, I touched it
Second Master's leg was still quite strong I couldn't hold it with one hand Below my hand was cloth, inside the cloth were bumps and hollows I did not know if it wasthat was shaking ”Have you touched carefully?” I nodded my head like a fool Second Master said, ”Go to the carpenter and make a bamboo tube with the same thickness”
”This thickness”
Second Master's face turned red, ”As thick as !”
”Ah ah, yes”
I caught up and asked again, ”How long?”
Second Master's expression was not good, he waved si, it would be hard to walk The length of two pal crutch”
I asked, ”Also short?”
”Obviously!”
Thus, I went After the carpenter heard ht I had to come back to collect it after a few days The master looked at me disdainfully, ”Such a simple task can be done in two steps” Finally, after I saw the product, ht - truly in just a few steps But as I walked and looked at the product incrutch, it only reached ain at the round bamboo tube and my heart felt a little sour Our Second Master is only now this tall
After I brought it ho time His expression was cal breaths Second Master said, ”That was fast” I quickly responded, ”The carpenter was very good!” Second Master looked at me wordlessly and I lowered my head and obediently shut my mouth
I felt that Second Master's heart was upset His action in attaching the tube to his leg was very rough Don't ask me hoas able to see this, this was just what I felt I walked over and helped hi, his head lowered, I couldn't see his face I said, ”Second Master, beand the rest was done by me
Second Master round, the crutches under both his arth was just nice Just nice to , his body moved And then, ”pa cha” he fell doards I quickly carried him up but Second Master asked round hiain I did not know that Second Master could already rise froround so easily
After that, Second Master would practise walking with the crutches every day At first, he fell until his whole body was full of green and purple patches Later, slowly, he was able to walk much more smoothly such that he was able to throay the left crutch and only ith one crutch Of course, the consequences of practising sorubbed until it was full of fresh blood Every time the medicine is applied, Second Master would hurt so rit his teeth and open his mouth There was once I couldn't help it and told Second Master to practise less, to do it slowly Second Master shook his head and said, ”Every year at this tizhou The tea trade is very bustling and there will be lots of opportunities for travel I must at least be able to walk by then” I didn't dare to say, Second Master, can you still travel like this? Later, Second Master was really able to walk out such a route
When the businesszhou from the Capital, they would frequently sit by the tea houses by the West Lake to discuss business There was a period when Second Master went there every day He would order a pot of the cheapest Long Jin (a type of tea), and would drink it until it becao away Later, the people in the shop recognised hi his current state, they would speak badly of him behind his back Intentionally or unintentionally, their words would fall into Second Master's ears but Second Master would treat hi, his crutch, he would hum a tune and admire the scenery That day, he entered the tea house and his eyes immediately turned to three people at the table at the furthest corner Two of the chess He leaned on his crutch and walked over When he reached the table, two of them turned to look but the oldest continued to stare at the chessboard without
Second Master was noton a stool, with force froht hand, he sat on top of an empty stool When the two youths saw this, their brows furrowed and appeared as if they wanted to chase him away Second Master spoke, ”If you don't catch the horse, in three steps, the paill force the king to abdicate” The old man finally nodded his head and looked at Second Master
”Young ”
Second Master laughed and patted the youngchess with the old htened you to save hi man blushed and stuttered, ”What what don't dare to win Boss Lin, don't listen to him”
