Gong Liangxiao seemed to hear Qin Yao's ridicule, and felt that he had lost a big person.

Gave Liu Ji another blow.

Cursing in a low voice: "Silver, silver, just know the silver! This silver is actually the most useless thing!"

Once this recipe is used, it will cost you more than a few dozen taels of silver!

"Alas~" Gong Liangxiao sighed and signaled Liu Ji to prick up his ears and listen carefully. He would not teach him a second time.

Liu Ji reluctantly covered his face with his hands, and then put his ears on it.

Gong Liangliao said: "Did I tell you before that the He family has contacts with the director of Guangzhou Library?"

Liu Ji nodded and said, "You also said that the curator has a collection of three thousand books in the library, all of which are unique. Many scholars have come here because of their reputation, but the curator is a snob and only lets in people with tens of millions of dollars. He is a mercenary villain."

Gong Liangxiao snorted, finally feeling relieved, and at least he didn't forget what he said.

"The curator is a foolish and filial man. His wife has bad teeth and delicious food. In order to make her happy, he searched for recipes, just to give her a satisfying bite."

Speaking of this, Gong Liangliao felt that if Liu Ji didn't understand it yet, then he was really hopeless.

Liu Ji took out the cake recipe he had just put away and looked at the kitchen in surprise. It turned out that his wife had given such an important stepping stone!

When Qin Yao came in with mushroom and meatball soup, Liu Ji slapped himself on the face and said sincerely:

"Madam, it's me who is ignorant!"

Qin Yao looked calm on her face, but in reality she took a deep breath and took a big step back.

He asked in confusion: "Why are you so crazy?"

Liu Ji was moved and held up the recipe: "This cake recipe must have been specially thought out by the lady, just so that I can borrow books from Guangzhou Library, right?"

Qin Yao twitched the corner of her mouth fiercely and looked at Gong Liangxiao who was also shocked in the wheelchair. They both raised their hands to their foreheads at the same time.

"Do you believe it when I say it's a coincidence?"

How could she have such great powers? She just happened to know that their master and apprentice were going to borrow books from others.

It's just that I'm greedy.

It wasn't until Gong Liangxiao suddenly asked for the prescription that she realized that this prescription could be of greater use.

Gong Liangliao also said: "You are very lucky, any good thing can happen to you."

Liu Ji shook his head, he didn't believe it.

"There are not so many coincidences in this world." Liu Ji smiled sarcastically. She loved him so much!

Knowing that she would not admit it because of her stubbornness, Liu Ji waved his hand and followed their words:

"After the government examination is over, I will go to the Guangzhou Library to read books and try to make you the first lady to be elected this year."

Qin Yao opened her mouth, hesitated to speak, hesitated to speak, and finally reached out to touch Liu Ji's forehead and asked sympathetically: "How long have you been like this?"

Liu Ji: "Huh?"

Qin Yao gave up, "Forget it, wash your hands and get ready for dinner. Take a rest early after eating. We have to get up early tomorrow and go on the road."

Liu Jiai agreed, put away the prescription, pushed Gong Liangxiao out to wash his hands, and shouted to the four elders who were sitting on the vegetable altar happily eating cakes: "Wash your hands and start dinner!"

After the meal was ready, Mrs. Li took the food box and left. Only Qin Yao's family and Gong Liangxiao's group were left in the courtyard.

The guard leader Agu, Awang, and other servants and maids of the He family sat at two tables in the courtyard.

We have been getting along with each other for more than half a month, and we have become familiar with each other.

Awang would make one or two cold jokes from time to time, making Agu and the others laugh.

The servants and maids from the He family were not used to such an atmosphere when they first arrived, but now they are gradually becoming more relaxed.

At this moment, I feel quite reluctant to think about going back to Fucheng tomorrow.

In fact, they were not the only ones who were reluctant to give up. Gong Liangxiao was also reluctant to give up.

The He family did not have barrier-free facilities. In order not to cause trouble to others, he could only restrain himself, which was like going to jail. Fortunately, San'er is still with us, so at least we will have fun.

Liu Ji is such an old man, he can take care of himself, and with Gong Liangxiao on hand to give him advice, Qin Yao has nothing to worry about. She has nothing to worry about. She wants to eat well and drink well. She thinks to herself that she will bring the dairy goat back someday and try to make milk tea.

Liu Ji, on the other hand, after sending the overfed Gong Liangliao to the Lotus Courtyard, followed Qin Yao and asked:

"Madam, do you have anything to tell me?"

"Madam, do you have something else you haven't told me?"

"Madam, do you really have nothing to say to me? I will be leaving tomorrow morning."

Madam, my ears were buzzing as if countless flies were surrounding me. Qin Yao was so annoyed that she kicked him in the calf.

"Go to sleep!"

Liu Ji rubbed his calf and was immediately satisfied, "Okay!"

Qin Yao looked at his back as he left happily, and looked at her toes suspiciously, a little doubtful about life.

Is he some kind of masochist?

A day without a spanking would make you feel unsatisfied?

Forget it, never mind, she was too busy today, so she might as well go to bed early.

Because Liu Ji was leaving early in the morning, Li got up half an hour earlier than usual, trying to make as many pastries as possible to take on the road in case of emergencies.

Awang also got up early, turned on the oven, and helped prepare the food together.

The two of them made a lot of shortbreads and baked them in the oven. When daylight came up, Li prepared breakfast, and Awang mashed the wild berries that he took the children back from the mountain yesterday to make snack sauce.

Fresh jam is not easy to preserve, so I won't bring it to Liu Ji.

Spread it directly on the freshly baked shortbread, put each piece into the food boxes of the Dalang brothers and sisters, and bring them to school as snacks.

Of course, I didn’t forget to leave a separate portion for Xiao Laifu.

Yesterday, he was the main force when we went into the mountains to pick wild berries. The four Dalang brothers and sisters ate and picked, their bellies full and only a handful left in their hands.

Little Laifu carefully picked half the basket before starting to fill his stomach. He must leave some of the jam he made today for others.

Even if he had to rush, Liu Ji did not forget to get up early and complete the morning reading set by the teacher.

Gong Liangxiao said that there are many scholars these days. If you want to stand out, you must know how to build momentum for yourself.

Whatever you suffer today will be a blessing tomorrow.

The word "hard work" will become a mark on him in the future, and it will also be his personality when he enters the upper class circle.

However, it is useless just to work hard in front of your own people. You have to let people outside know your hard work.

The Guangzhou Library is just one part of the plan.

These things cannot be taught by teachers in county academies. How many poor students studied hard and suffered hardships, but no blessings came. In the end, it was all in vain.

It is really difficult to take the imperial examination and become an official without a guide.

Liu Ji carefully checked the books and luggage he wanted to bring, as well as the gifts he wanted to give to the He family.

Those who were making a fuss yesterday are now serious and serious.

The evil woman's words were not wrong. She had already come this far. If she still didn't know how to seize the opportunity, the one who would lose the most would be himself.

After inventorying all the things, I asked Awang to move them to the entrance of the courtyard and put them away for a while while I waited for Agu to bring his horse to load them.
