Chapter 140 Sure enough, it’s here
Qiao Ye was also a little surprised at the idea that Yu Laoliu gave to the Qiao family.
She thought that the other party would instigate the people from the Old Qiao family to make trouble and force her to hand over the recipe.
But on second thought, I understood the other party's purpose.
It seems that she has been a nuisance to her mother-in-law and her family during this period!
I wanted to send her away quickly.
However, she just didn't do what they wanted.
She smiled and shrugged, "Then let them come. I'll be waiting."
Then he said meaningfully: "Since they came to my door this time, I will give them a big gift package."
Lu Shao also said meaningfully: "Then I'll give one more to Yu Laoliu and the others."
When Qiao Ye saw his look, he guessed that he was going to do something bad.
This guy is now filled with black sesame filling, but she likes it.
She blinked, "Okay, let's give the gifts together as husband and wife."
She didn't ask him what gift he wanted to give, she just waited to watch the show.
Lu Shao also winked at her, "My wife always has such a tacit understanding with me."
Qiao Ye laughed out loud, "After all, we are husband and wife."
She then changed the subject and asked, "Did you not find the medicine in the county?"
Lu Shao nodded, "Well, there are none in the county pharmacies."
"But Brother Ji helped to find it, and he said it will be delivered in about two days."
Qiao Ye smiled and said, "That's just the right time."
She asked curiously, "What are Lin Hao and the others doing in the county town?"
Judging from the identities of the two people, it is unlikely that they would come to visit a small county like this.
Lu Shao replied: "They came with the great scholar Mr. Qin."
"Qu Ji is the grandson of Mr. Qin. Mr. Qin brought his students here for study tours. He and Lin Hao should have followed him to join in the fun."
"Neither of them wants to take the imperial examination."
He added, "Mr. Qin was once the emperor's teacher. After the current emperor ascended the throne, he resigned and traveled around."
"The emperor respects this teacher very much. Whenever Mr. Qin is in the capital, he is often summoned by the emperor."
"Although he was not an official in the court, most of his students were officials in the court."
Qiao Ye understood immediately that this old Mr. Qin was not only the emperor's teacher, but he was still very popular with the emperor even after he resigned from office.
She raised her eyebrows, "No wonder Lu Zhoujin cares so much about the distinguished guest who is coming. Does he want to take Mr. Qin as his teacher?"
If you could become a disciple of this great scholar, the gains you would receive would be immeasurable, whether in terms of academic improvement, fame, or personal connections.
"And if Lu Zhoulan can get close to Lin Hao or Qu Jizhong, he will be able to transform from a sparrow into a phoenix."
"It will be a great help to Lu Zhoujin, and he will be able to hold his head high."
Lu Shao smiled and said, "That must be what he thinks."
"But you are bound to be disappointed."
In his previous life, he was on the run and had no idea that Mr. Qin had been here.
But I have never heard of anyone taking Mr. Qin as his teacher.
To be precise, Mr. Qin has not accepted any students since he accepted a student two years ago.
Lu Zhoujin had a pretty good talent for studying, but it was just above average. He was not qualified to become Mr. Qin's disciple.
As for Lu Zhoulan's attempt to hook up with Lin Hao and Lin Hao, she was unsuccessful and she later married someone else.
Qiao Ye chuckled: "I also think he has no chance."
"To be able to be the emperor's teacher, and then to retire after the emperor ascends the throne, and still enjoy the emperor's favor, a great scholar must be very talented."
"Given Lu Zhoujin's character and personality, I don't think he would be worthy of the attention of a great scholar, even if he is a peerless genius."
Resigning from office at a time when he was at the peak of his career shows that this great scholar was not only a smart man, but also not a power-hungry person.
There are definitely requirements for the character of the disciples accepted.
Lu Shao discovered that his young wife was a very insightful person and his true nature could be seen just by listening to her.
He said, "My lady has a keen eye."
Qiao Ye curled the corners of her lips, "Thank you for the compliment, sir."
She asked, "Do you want to take Mr. Qin as your master?"
Lu Shao replied frankly: "Of course I do. I have always admired Mr. Qin's character and talent."
"And why take a detour when you can take a shortcut."
Qiao Ye likes this about Lu Shao. Even if he has his own little thoughts, he won’t try to cover them up hypocritically.
"Have you figured out how to become my apprentice?"
She thought for a moment and asked, "How about making friends with Lin Hao and the others and asking them to introduce me to you?"
Lu Shao smiled and said, "No, I'll try it myself."
"If Mr. Qin and I have a master-disciple relationship, then I can become his disciple."
"If we are not destined to be together, even if Qu Ji helped introduce me, Mr. Qin would not accept me as his disciple for his sake."
"You and Lin Hao can just be friends, and there's no need to owe him a favor."
Qiao Ye smiled and asked, "It seems you are sure?"
Lu Shao laughed: "I'm about 30% sure, but not much."
"By the way, although I won't ask Qu Ji to help introduce them, I can recommend the new storybook I wrote to them."
"I know something that other people who want to become my disciple don't know."
"Mr. Qin likes to study law and collect and read case files from all over the country."
His words were all written with reference to the law and based on reality.
Mr. Qin might be interested after seeing this.
Qiao Ye smiled and said, "It seems that our Xiao Hei has made a contribution."
If Xiao Hei hadn't attracted Lin Hao's attention and love, she wouldn't have been able to go fishing.
"This may be the attraction of fate between you and Mr. Qin."
She teased again: "If you can become Mr. Qin's disciple, your father and Lu Zhoujin will probably be so angry that they will vomit blood."
"The young master of the Lian family who is going to take the imperial examination will also be jealous to death."
Lu Shao smiled and nodded, "Sure."
"So I hope I can succeed in becoming your disciple."
Qiao Ye raised his hand and patted his shoulder, saying with a smile: "Come, let me give you some of the blessings from my lucky star."
Lu Shao freed up one hand and shook Qiao Ye's hand as he said he would go back.
His dark and deep eyes were full of smiles, "Okay, I'll take advantage of my wife's blessing."
Neither of them thought about it and just made a chrysanthemum candle or something like that to please Mr. Qin.
Although Mr. Qin declined to meet with Magistrate Lu, he would still take a look at something unique and not too expensive that the other party sincerely sent him.
Given Lu Shao's current relationship with County Magistrate Lu, the other party would be happy to help.
Or you could deliberately let Qu Ji see it and give it to his grandfather.
But that was the Ji family's plan and conspiracy, and they would never do such a thing to intercept.
For the next two days, Lu Shao went out early in the morning to go to the county town to do some business.
Qiao Ye is researching how to make black chrysanthemum candles.
That day, the Lu family had just finished lunch and Qiao Ye was talking to the old lady.
The people in the rooms did not leave either, and continued to talk about the workshop.
The people hired by the village had already come to work, and Lu Dalang and his companions did not go to the county town again.
They had previously advertised according to Qiao Ye's ideas, saying that anyone who wanted to buy mosquito coils in large quantities could come to the village.
Sure enough, some people came to buy it these two days.
Qiao Ye set a wholesale price of two cents per plate.
If you buy a hundred mosquito coils at one time, you can get a good deal at this price.
If the price is lower than this, it will still be sold at three cents per plate as before in the county town.
Mugwort and pine cones are also being collected at the workshop, and the four Dalang brothers are looking after the workshop.
As the family was talking, there was a knock on the door.
Everyone in the Lu family was a little confused.
Mrs. Lu asked, "Who would knock on the door at this time?"
Qiao Ye guessed who it was and thought, he has come as expected.
She smiled and said, "Just go open the door and you'll know."
Mrs. Lu stood up and said, "Then I'll go open the door."
