C7 The Test

Early in the morning, Su Xinyue walked slowly in the yard, the birds chirped happily on the branches, and the old tree trunk stretched and hung diagonally on the roof.

She stretched her arm and went to the kitchen to prepare a bowl of noodles for herself. After breakfast, she turned on the computer and news that covered the sky and covered the earth rushed towards her. The information of the video was crazily transmitted, and she was brought out by human flesh. There were all kinds of unpleasant words in the online comments. They wanted to see her make a fool of herself, and they wanted to splash her with dirty water so that she would back out.

Su Xinyue closed her eyes and paused for a moment. She took a deep breath and gently turned off the computer. She called her father, Su Yongan. His father promised to accompany her to find Master Liu today. With his presence, she believed that Master Liu would give her some face.

This time, when Su Xinyue went to the high post, things went much smoother. When she walked along the south road of Zhongshan and passed through the ancient alley, her footsteps also became much lighter. Her father happened to be working in the vicinity, so he accompanied her to find Master Liu.

Su Xinyue walked side by side with her father, Su Yongan. There was a trace of appreciation in his eyes. He knew Su Xinyue, so she was more reliable. She never gave up on things that she had set her mind on. "Yue Er, I think Uncle Liu will agree to help sooner or later. He wants Su Clan's fan store to reopen more than anyone else. Don't look at him as if he doesn't care. It's just that it's very difficult for ordinary people to move him. " Her father comforted her. He told her the truth.

Walking on the limestone road next to her father, Su Xinyue felt a trace of peace in her heart. The rumors that hurt her also dispersed with the wind. She took a deep breath and revealed a trace of a smile. As long as she continued to walk forward, all the unbearable things would remain behind her.

At the end of the alley, a door gently opened. Master Liu stood at the door and greeted Su Yongan, "Yongan, you're here. " He looked at Su Xinyue again and nodded slightly to her as a greeting.

"Morning, Uncle Liu. " Su Xinyue smiled and shouted. Uncle Liu smiled at her and said, "Take a seat in the room. "

Su Xinyue followed behind Uncle Liu and her father. They passed through the small courtyard and arrived at the living room of Uncle Liu's house. Uncle Liu and Su Yongan sat on the sofa, while Su Xinyue sat beside them.

Uncle Liu had already prepared tea. He brought them one by one to Su Yongan and Su Xinyue. "I've troubled you. " Su Yongan said apologetically.

"What are you talking about? Don't look at who he is. You don't have to treat him as an outsider. " Uncle Liu said angrily. Uncle Liu also sat down and drank a mouthful of tea.

"Brother Liu, I came to find you this time because I had no other choice. You also know that before my father died, he told me that the fan industry must be passed on. As juniors, we must fulfill his last wish. But without your help, it's impossible to complete this task. " Su Yongan said sincerely.

"Yongan, it's not that I'm rejecting it, but you know that I won't do it so easily. Once I do, I have to continue. I swore an oath back then. " Uncle Liu had a solemn expression. He was a man of his word. If he wasn't absolutely confident, he wouldn't use an oath as a joke.

"Uncle Liu, I've already resigned from my position. I've decided to focus on completing this task. I don't know anything. Without your help, I really wouldn't be able to take a single step forward, let alone develop. " Su Xinyue's eyes were filled with tears, and she almost begged.

"Xiao Yue, it's not that Uncle Liu doesn't believe you. Unless your grandfather is still alive. As long as he says one word, I won't care about what I do. Other than him, I won't easily leave the mountain for anyone. At my age, I don't want to lose my chastity. And I won't use myself as a joke. " Uncle Liu's words were firm. He had his own principles.

"Brother Liu, Yue Er was also grown up by you. She wasn't the kind of person who would act like a gust of wind. She would still put in a lot of effort to decide what to do. For the sake of the old man, please help us. " Su Yongwen begged.

"Yongan, you should know better than anyone what I am thinking" Uncle Liu sighed, "Come with me. "

Uncle Liu led the way to the courtyard. In the southwest corner of the courtyard, there was a bamboo plant that was as thick as a wrist. He pointed at the bamboo and said, "I planted this bamboo the day I stopped cutting. After so many years, it has grown to such a thickness. " He spread out his hands and revealed an expression of love and helplessness.

When Su Xinyue saw Uncle Liu's appearance, she knew that it was not so easy to move him. "It was definitely not a spur of the moment that I promised grandpa to take over the fan industry. I'm serious. I saw the responsibilities and contributions of the Su family's previous sect heads. I know that someone has to shoulder this responsibility. " From the bottom of her heart, she respected people like Uncle Liu.

"Xiao Yue, it's not that Uncle Liu doesn't believe you. It's just that you're still too young and don't know the depth of the world. " Uncle Liu looked at Su Xinyue with some sympathy.

Su Yongan looked at Uncle Liu. He knew that it was very difficult to convince such a person who kept his word. Because he could not see any hope or determination. He pressed his palms together towards Uncle Liu and pressed down on his right palm with his left palm. When Uncle Liu saw Su Yongan's hand gesture, his expression became serious.

Uncle Liu stared at the bamboo for a while. Su Yongan also stared at the bamboo with a trace of sorrow on his face. Su Xinyue's eyes were a little moist. She felt the heavy atmosphere. A promise was worth a thousand gold. In an instant, she understood Uncle Liu's dilemma.

Su Yongan and Uncle Liu did not speak. From their expressions, they both understood each other's feelings. The courtyard fell silent, so quiet that they could hear each other's breathing.

A gust of cold wind blew, and the bamboo leaves swayed with the wind. Uncle Liu slowly turned his head and looked at Su Yongan. "Yongan, since you are willing to use your body to draw, Then I will take a step back. Xiao Yue is given one month to personally make a Jinling folding fan. If you can make it, then come and find me. Otherwise, you won't have to come again. "

Su Yongan heard Uncle Liu's words and bowed to him," Brother Liu, thank you for giving Yue Er this opportunity. " After saying that, he took Su Xinyue's hand and walked out of the courtyard. He left without looking back.

Uncle Liu watched their backs, his expression somewhat complicated. He was not a ruthless person. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he actually did not intend to easily make a comeback. If it was only for a moment, he might as well not worry about it. If he wanted to do it, he would do it with ten percent of his heart.

Su Xinyue clenched her fists. She did not know what her father had said to Uncle Liu. She only knew that her father's expression at that time was very serious and serious. Otherwise, Uncle Liu would not have let go so easily. This was the only chance she could grasp. Opportunities couldn't be missed. Time didn't come again. Uncle Liu was a man of his word, he would not change.

No matter how hard it was, she would definitely find a way to make a folding fan with her own hands, no matter how much she had to pay. As long as she could invite Uncle Liu back on time, that would be enough. Only then would she be able to continue fulfilling her grandfather's dying wish.
