Chapter 339 I'm afraid there is a plan
Lu Shao has not been idle in the past few months.
He also entered the county school and often corresponded with his teacher who continued to travel with other students to discuss academic matters.
I also communicate frequently with several senior brothers.
He still reads hard every day, and in his spare time he helps Qiao Ye carve candles or continues to write storybooks.
His storybooks are now very famous, and a large group of people are waiting for him to publish new ones.
Once a new story is written, it will sell out quickly and have to be reprinted.
The suspenseful crime stories he writes are getting better and better, with good hooks that whet people's appetite.
The key is that the ending of each story is unpredictable, with twists and turns again and again, which is very exciting.
Even Qiao Ye would always follow him to read the storybooks he wrote.
Of course, she also provided Lu Shao with a lot of ideas and inspiration.
After Qiao Ye bought the house and the shop, Lu Laosi and his companions basically ran shops in the provincial capital.
There is also a wool collecting workshop here.
After the wool is collected, people are hired to pick it out, clean it, dry it, and weave it into wool yarn.
The dyeing was done by people they brought from the village.
In addition to selling wool, we also help to transfer and hire people to knit sweaters and trousers.
In addition to the woolen trousers, woolen shoes, gloves, hats and accessories that Qiao Ye had asked someone to make before.
Many people also make or crochet various woolen products by themselves, such as mats, purses, etc.
It also makes the sales of wool better.
Not only women in the county and villages benefit from this, but now even women in the provincial capital who live in poor conditions but have good hands can often get jobs knitting sweaters and trousers.
Or you can buy some wool, knit some things and set up a stall, and earn a lot of money for your family every month.
Therefore, Qiao Ye has a very good reputation in the capital city.
Of course, since the wool business is so popular, there will naturally be imitators and followers.
However, these imitation wool yarns are not as good as those made in Qiao Ye’s workshop, whether in terms of softness, texture, or dyed colors.
The price is just a little lower, and the wool yarn from Qiao Ye's workshop is in short supply, so there are still many people buying theirs.
While Lu Shao was taking the exam, Qiao Ye stayed at home planning what to bring to Beijing.
Yes, if Lu Shao passes the imperial examination this time, they will go to Beijing.
Qin Daru meant that after Lu Shao passed the imperial examination, he would let him go to the capital to prepare for the joint examination the following year, that is, to take the jinshi examination in the capital.
It just so happened that he would not be going out for the second half of the year, so he planned to teach Lu Shao well.
Wei Fenghua and Jiang Yilin in the capital would often write letters, urging Qiao Ye to go to the capital.
In addition, the emperor had previously rewarded him with a house and a farm. Although Jiang Yilin helped to look after them, Qiao Ye also wanted to grow something.
Although Lu Shao did not participate in the imperial examination in his previous life, he had always been paying attention to it.
I also know that I have to stay in the examination room for a few days and cannot get sick, otherwise it will be very troublesome.
After his rebirth, unless there are special circumstances, he will insist on practicing martial arts.
Because he was in good health, when he came out of the examination room, the other candidates were all exhausted.
Some people even fell ill or were so weak that they had to be carried to the carriage by their families.
Although Lu Shao did not look very energetic, he looked much better than the other candidates.
Qiao Ye, Lu Laosi and others went to pick him up.
Lu Laosi also laughed and joked, "I thought that as your uncle, I could carry you home today."
Lu Shao chuckled and said, "I'm also afraid of tiring Fourth Uncle."
Qiao Ye looked at Lu Shao, who had a layer of fatigue on his face, and said, "Let's go home first."
Lu Shao nodded, "Okay, I want to go back and take a shower and have a good sleep."
Although practicing martial arts keeps me healthy, I haven’t slept well for several days and it’s still very tiring to concentrate on doing the homework.
Several people got on the carriage together.
After getting on the carriage, Lu Shao took the initiative to hold Qiao Ye's hand.
Qiao Ye didn't mind the smell on him, but instead held his hand.
The two didn't speak, but there was a tacit understanding between them.
They had to wait for the results to be announced, so Lu Shao and Qiao Ye were not in a hurry to return to the village.
When the results are announced, the two of them will leisurely go sightseeing near the city.
Or you can visit the more distinctive ancient towns in the surrounding counties.
Qiao Ye felt a little regretful that he didn't have a camera so that he could take pictures of the places they had visited.
One day, I sighed to Lu Shao.
It would be nice if I could have a portrait as a souvenir so I can look at it often in the future.
The next day, they went out to play together.
Lu Shao carried the painting tools.
When they were in a place with beautiful scenery, he would let Qiao Ye sit down and draw a picture for her as a souvenir.
Qiao Ye didn't expect that his casual sigh was remembered by him and he would do it with all his heart.
How could she not be tempted by such a Lu Shao?
Qiao Ye asked him to look in the mirror and add himself into the painting.
That is why Lu Shao would leave a space for himself when painting.
I'll add it back after we get back to the inn.
The two of them left behind many portraits of each other, planning to take them out and look at them whenever they get old.
Lu Shao also promised Qiao Ye that he would make time to accompany her out for walks and play more often in the future.
Whenever I go to a place, I will paint it and the beautiful scenery as a souvenir.
Qiao Ye naturally would not object.
When the results were about to be announced, the two hurried back to the city.
When Lu Laosi and his companions saw that they had finally returned, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After the two of them finished their meal, Lu Lao Si said to Lu Shao, "Wu Lang, many people have come to your house to look for you recently."
Lu Shao asked: "Did you send a visiting card?"
Lu Laosi asked Liu Lang to fetch the visiting card, "It's all here."
"There are a few people who came to you directly without a visiting card."
"The only person I know is Master Ji."
Lu Shao took the visiting card and looked at it, "Okay, I understand."
The people who sent the visiting cards were not very familiar with him, and most of them were descendants of families in the provincial capital.
Or he could be a scholar who also took part in the provincial examination.
He planned to select a few for return visits and ignore the others for the time being.
Three days later, the results will be announced.
Lu Shao was still not in a hurry, but Ji Songbai called him out to wait very early.
They went to the teahouse opposite the ranking list.
Ji Songbai booked a private room, and he could see the opposite side by opening the window.
In addition to the two of them, there were several scholars who had a good relationship with them or who came and went from time to time and were waiting together.
Lu Laosi and his companions were also in the teahouse at first, but they felt uncomfortable sitting still.
After saying hello to Lu Shao, he went downstairs early and squeezed into the crowd to wait for the notice to be posted.
The same goes for the servants of Ji Songbai and others.
A young man named Li from a noble family in the capital came back to his hometown to take the exam.
Looking at Lu Shao, he asked with a smile: "Brother Shao, are you confident about passing the exam this time? I see you are not in a hurry at all."
Lu Shao smiled and replied: "I can't say I'm very confident, but I feel like I did pretty well in the exam this time."
"Being anxious won't change the outcome, so just try to stay calm."
This person discovered that Lu Shao had a very good mentality, which was something they could not envy.
Except for Lu Shao, they were all very nervous and anxious at this moment.
There was a person who never liked Lu Shao, Mr. Hu, who was also from the capital, but had to be on good terms with Lu Shao.
He couldn't help but looked at Lu Shao and raised his eyebrows and said, "Brother Lu, you are sure that you will pass the exam, so you are so calm."
Lu Shao glanced at Mr. Hu.
Then he said, "No matter who it is, no one can say that he is sure to pass the exam."
"Whether you can pass the exam or not will be known soon when the list is posted. Why are you so anxious, Brother Hu?"
Since this person came to the capital, he obviously doesn't like me, but he has taken the initiative to approach me. I'm afraid he has some ulterior motive.
Lu Shao also wanted to see what the other party was trying to do and who sent them.
So we maintain a close but not distant relationship with each other.
(The male protagonist didn’t plan to write in detail about the scientific examination, so he used time to fast forward, which is why he took the examination several times~)
