Chapter 24 Slap in the face
Li Luo laughed coldly. Is Lin Ge really stupid or is she just pretending to be stupid? When she kicked her out of the house, she never thought that she was still a child of the Li family. Now that she doesn't plan to give the job to Lin Ge, it's her fault?

In this age that advocates filial piety, if I were to disregard the kindness of Li's father and mother in raising me, it would be a great act of unfilial piety. Lin Ge is really good at moral kidnapping!

"No need for that." Li Luo said coldly, "I got this job after fighting through thousands of people, and Master Yuhong is also my most respected teacher. I got all this through my own efforts. What does it have to do with my parents?"

"We are all adults, why do we need our parents to worry about us? And I have made it clear that I am not giving this job to anyone!"

"Master, you know me best. You also know how much I cared about this job. When I asked for leave, you approved it. Besides, Chen Yue is a down-to-earth child. I personally brought her to your trial class."

"If I really didn't want to be your apprentice anymore, I would have come to you in person to apologize instead of just giving up the job opportunity without saying anything."

"I don't know what the misunderstanding is. I asked someone who knows nothing about embroidery to take over my job. I didn't even show up. How could I have clearly stated that I would give the job to her?"

"Or is it that these days, even our textile factories can inexplicably give work to others without informing us."

"This is something that must not happen in our textile factory!" Master Yuhong said righteously, "My disciples are all capable and excellent. For those who are incapable, I may teach them for one or two days."

"But I can't keep wasting my time on a blockhead." Master Yuhong's words were full of disparagement of Lin Ge.

Lin Ge has been here for a week, but he still hasn't learned how to remove stitches. He doesn't even know the most basic color matching. He has exhausted Master Yuhong's patience.

Originally, she was still brooding over Li Luo's request for leave, but now she took out all her anger on Lin Ge. Lin Ge actually used unfair means to bully her apprentice. Did he really think that her master was a pushover?

Not only did he steal his apprentice's job, but he also forced him to shut up?

Master Yuhong is nearly fifty years old. What storms and waves has she not seen? Today, she was shocked to find that she was fooled by a little girl. How could she not know the twists and turns in this matter? So at this time, she had no tolerance for Lin Ge at all.

Seeing Master Yuhong's disgust for her evident in his words, Lin Ge almost collapsed and burst into tears again. She gently bit the tip of her tongue and forced herself to calm down.

"Yes... I'm sorry, Teacher Yuhong, I'm sorry, Luoluo, I... I don't know anything. This was all arranged by my parents. They asked me to come here to work, so I just came here..."

Li Luo could see at a glance that Lin Ge was pretending to be righteous and put all the blame on Li's father and mother.

Ever since Lin Ge pushed her down the stairs and cursed her in a vicious tone in front of her, she knew that Lin Ge was not as simple as she appeared. If she didn't know that Lin Ge wanted this job, the word "Li Luo" would have been written backwards.

"Now you can go back and tell mom and dad that they don't have to worry about me. I'm back now and I won't be without time. You don't have to bother me to stay here. You can go back now."

Lin Ge stood there in a daze. She had been pulling strings these past few days and her eyes were almost blinded. She also had to endure the scolding from the old witch in front of her, but she had endured it all. But now, Li Luo just slapped his lips and said she had nothing to do with it?
Then what does the grievances she has suffered in the past few days count for?
Lin Ge was so angry that his lungs almost exploded.

"But my parents' concerns are indeed justified. Master, I am going back to the countryside now. I am afraid that I will have to take a permanent vacation. If I delay any further, I am afraid that Master's work will not be completed."

Li Luo didn't even glance at Lin Ge and continued speaking to Master Yuhong.

"So Master, I'm here today to solve this problem." "Master, we, the apprentices, have witnessed your attitude towards your work. I've been letting a idiot who can't even draw a thread take over my work, which has also increased your workload. I really feel bad about it."

Lin Ge on the side shook her head desperately, wanting to interrupt, but Li Luo didn't give her a chance to speak.

"Master, please forgive me for being unfilial. I plan to sell this job. Besides, you need a more professional assistant. Anyone who is willing to pay for this job will definitely take your work seriously."

When Li Luo said this, Qi Nana, who was watching the fun from the side, suddenly brightened up. She kept blinking, hinting to Li Luo, and almost said directly: "Please give me the chance to pay."

She had always admired Master Yuhong, and now she was afraid that Li Luo was still holding a grudge against her, so she gave up her dream job to someone else.

For a moment, Qi Nana scratched her ears and cheeks, feeling uncomfortable all over.

Master Yuhong has been looking at Li Luo, wanting to ask Li Luo if he has a suitable candidate in mind. She took a liking to Li Luo at first sight, so she was reluctant to let Li Luo leave.

However, it takes at least two or three hours to go from the countryside to the city and back, and there are not always cars available. Even if Li Luo wanted to come, there was really no way.

"Do you have a candidate in mind?" Master Yuhong asked curiously, looking at Li Luo's serious expression.

Li Luo nodded seriously and said, "It's Qi Nana next to me. Her embroidery skills are not inferior to mine. And Master Yuhong, you also admired her at the beginning. I think the gap between us is not that big."

Qi Nana, who was still making faces at the side, was glanced at by Master Yuhong. She quickly regained her serious look, but her heart was filled with turmoil.

Did she hear it right? Did Li Luo really say her name?
Master Yuhong also had an impression of Qi Nana and knew her identity. Although Qi Nana was not as stable as Li Luo, she had left an impression in his mind completely relying on her own strength.
So she still liked Qi Nana very much, but she was not destined to make her her apprentice.

"Then Qi Nana is willing..."

If Li Luo had not withdrawn, Master Yuhong would not have been able to accept a new apprentice. After all, not all craftsmen could withstand Master Yuhong's high standards.

"Of course I am willing!" Qi Nana's face was almost broken by laughter, and she bowed deeply to Master Yuhong: "It is Nana's honor to be able to study with Master Yuhong!"

"Luoluo, how much can I pay for your job?" Qi Nana excitedly held Li Luo's arm.

"It depends on your willingness. How much do you think this job is worth?" Li Luo asked instead of answering.

"Just because of Master Yuhong's identity, 1,500 yuan, no bargaining!"

"Okay, I agree." Li Luo said with a smile.

Qi Nana seemed to still be dreaming, and bowed to Master Yuhong: "Master Yuhong, we are leaving first! We will go to handle the formalities in a moment."
