Chapter 340 Do You Really Want to Feed the Pigs?

"Really!" Ye Mingxuan looked sincere.

“The tuition fee is two million taels a year, but it’s not in the imperial capital. I will be back in Lecheng in a few days.

You should know what general apprentices need to do, and also see what our Zhuangzi has to do all day long?

"Are you sure this cousin who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth can endure such hardship?" Gu Xiaoxi asked Ye Mingxuan.

After hearing this, Ye Mingxuan became a little hesitant. His cousin was indeed born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He had been very outstanding since childhood. The Ye family had always been well off. Had he really never suffered any hardship?

"No matter how tired I am, I can do it." Ye Lan said confidently.

"If I ask you to go up the mountain to pick grass to feed the pigs and clean the pigpen every day, are you sure you can accept such a life?" Gu Xiaoxi asked.

"I didn't see you raising pigs last time!" Ye Mingxuan felt that Gu Xiaoxi was deliberately making things difficult for his cousin, and he didn't know how his cousin had offended him.

You can offend anyone, but you can't offend Gu Xiaoxi, otherwise you will definitely have a hard time. Zhang Shun was a bloody example before.

Seeing Ye Lan's relentless determination, Gu Xiaoxi said slowly, "Go find a village outside the city and see if there are any pig farmers. Go and try it first. If I accept the money, I won't be able to go back on my word.

Your cousin knows that I'm a petty person, and I'll make things difficult for anyone I dislike, so you must think this through carefully."

Ye Lan...

As the eldest son of the Ye family, is he really going to feed pigs?

Moreover, he had to pay such an expensive tuition fee to feed pigs. If this got out, how would he save face?

But this is someone his cousin approves of. If he misses this opportunity, he will regret it for the rest of his life.

"Okay, Young Master Ye, go back and prop up your pillow and think about it slowly. I will stay here for another ten days or so. Once you have made up your mind, go to the village over there and tell Ying San." Gu Xiaoxi began to see the guest off so as not to delay her business.

"Okay!" Ye Lan said and turned to leave.

Only Ye Mingxuan, Wei Kong and the others were left in the room, and Wei Kong and the others also had a lot to say to Gu Xiaoxi.

So, after closing the door, Gu Xiaoxi reminisced with them and asked Min'er to guard the door and not let anyone else in.

Chen Tingshen, Chen Qinian and the others had arrived a long time ago. The door over there was still closed, so they didn't want to disturb them and just waited in the next room.

When the waiter saw Young Master Ye leaving, Min'er came out and reported the situation to the masters.

"Qinian, go call Min'er over." Chen Tingshen asked his son to call Min'er over.

After a while, Min'er asked someone to take over the guarding and she came to see Mr. Chen.

"Min'er, what's the situation inside? Does the Third Master intend to blame Miss Xiaoxi?" Chen Tingshen asked anxiously.

After hearing this, Min Er said with a smile: "Don't worry, Master Chen, Miss Xiaoxi is not only an old acquaintance of the Third Master, but also of the Second Master.

Moreover, just now Young Master Ye wanted to become Miss Xiaoxi's apprentice, but Miss Xiaoxi seemed to be on bad terms with Young Master Ye and actually offered a tuition of two million taels per year."

"Two million taels a year, that's faster than robbing! Sister Xiaoxi has made progress again." Chen Qinian was surprised when he heard the number.

Bang!

Uncle Chen slapped Chen Qinnian on the head: "Stop talking nonsense, young man. If Young Master Ye hears you, your butt will be beaten to a pulp."

"It's because he has a big tree to lean against and enjoy the shade!" Chen Qinian pouted.

"Is that all? His business skills are much better than yours." Chen Tingshen looked at his son with contempt.

"He's so strong, how many years can the Ye family let him leave?" Chen Qinian didn't believe it.

"It was the Third Master who suggested it, and I'm afraid the Ye family is willing." Min'er continued Chen Qinian's words.

Chen Tingshen also thought this was true. However, it was a good thing for their Chen family that Ye Lan became Gu Xiaoxi's apprentice.

Miss Xiaoxi has acknowledged that her son and future daughter-in-law are her disciples. If Ye Lan becomes her disciple, they will be brothers.

Since everyone will see each other every day in the future, the Ye family will be less troublesome for the Chen family's business.

"Dad, I'll go and wait! Let's see what Sister Xiaoxi says." Chen Qinian thought about it and felt that he could go and show up to the Third Master.

"Go!" Chen Tingshen waved his hand.

Chen Qinian followed Min'er to the door of the house and waited for more than an hour before the door finally opened.

Gu Xiaoxi opened the door and saw Chen Qinian and Min'er standing there like door gods, one on each side. She poked Chen Qinian with her finger and asked, "Did you go back and tell your father?"

"Master, how dare I neglect what you said. My father has prepared everything and is just waiting for my nod." Chen Qinian even changed his address.

"You'd better call me Sister Xiaoxi. Call me Master. I have a feeling my life will be shortened by two years." Gu Xiaoxi rolled her eyes at him.

"Whatever you say is what it is. My father told you to set the date!" Chen Qinian picked up a topic casually.

"It's better to do it today than tomorrow. You know I won't be here for long." Gu Xiaoxi smiled mischievously at Chen Qinian.

Chen Qinian...

I kind of regret bringing up this topic. Sister Xiaoxi is obviously asking the man proposing marriage to get married right away, and his days of freedom are coming to an end.

"If your marriage is not completed before I leave, you don't have to go back with me." Gu Xiaoxi said.

"Do it, do it, do it. I'll go find my dad now. I'll get married to Weiwei tomorrow. Please don't leave me!" After Chen Qinian said this, he forgot the purpose of coming here and turned around and ran away.

Ye Mingxuan looked at Chen Qinian's back and said, "Your disciple seems a little unreliable!"

"He is still young after all, but in my opinion, he is still very good. At least he has some talent. Although not as good as Weiwei, I am still satisfied with him." Gu Xiaoxi told the truth.

"Since you are here, let me do my best to be a good host!" Ye Mingxuan said.

"By the way, do you know where your second brother went this time? There is no news about his subordinates yet, so don't go looking for death again." Gu Xiaoxi almost forgot to inquire about the news from Ye Mingxuan.

Ye Mingxuan looked around and saw that there were no strangers around. He whispered, "He was ordered to go to the imperial mausoleum. As for what he was going to do, I don't know."

Went to the imperial tomb?

Could it be related to the so-called dragon vein?

Gu Xiaoxi thought about it and felt that something was wrong. Ye Lixuan had not yet found all the jade pendants, so he definitely couldn't find the dragon vein. What was the purpose of going to the imperial tomb?

"Did you guess what the second brother was going to do?" Ye Mingxuan also wanted to know what the second brother was going to do in that place?

Gu Xiaoxi shook her head. Although she knew that the brothers had a good relationship, they were half-brothers after all.

Moreover, under the imperial power, even brothers from the same mother had to be careful.

Therefore, she definitely couldn't mention anything about the jade pendant.

However, even if Gu Xiaoxi didn't mention it, Ye Mingxuan still thought about it that way.

"Could it be that Second Brother has found the dragon vein?" He said this deliberately, and also wanted to test Gu Xiaoxi's attitude.
