Qi Yiyang’s biological father is not the prince of the Duke’s Mansion, but the second son of the legitimate wife.

He is also an official who entered the government through the imperial examination, and now serves as the third-rank left vice minister in the Ministry of Rites.

I have more say at home.

Qi Yiyang's performance in the imperial examinations was the best among his cousins, and he got along well with the Fifth Prince. As a result, he was envied by his brothers at home.

"Fourth brother is back. I heard recently that you are close to Xi Rui and a few other playboys. Are you hanging out with them again today?"

"Of course they are hanging out together again. I heard that Fourth Brother went to a restaurant with Xi Rui and others to eat today. It seems that they have a really good relationship."

"Doesn't Fourth Brother have a bad relationship with those dudes? How come he's hanging out with them?"

"Fourth brother, you are the one who is most likely to pass the imperial examination first in our lifetime. How can you get involved with Xi Rui and other playboys?"

"Yeah, won't it affect your studies, fourth brother?"

As soon as Qi Yiyang entered the door, his cousins ​​of the same generation started to mock and look down on him.

After hearing what the few people said, Qi Yiyang's father Qi Pengqing couldn't help but frown.

He frowned and asked, "Why did you get involved with Xi Rui and the others?"

He still had high hopes for his son, and naturally didn't like his son playing with those playboys.

Qi Yiyang knew he was going to be bullied, so he replied frankly: "I mainly went to find Shi Qingluo."

Father Qi was puzzled, "Why are you looking for Shi Qingluo?"

Old Master Qi did think of it, "Are you going to find out what prescription Shi Qingluo offered?"

Qi Yiyang smiled and said, "Grandpa is wise. I did go to inquire about this."

Mr. Qi became more interested and asked, "Did you find out?"

Qi Yiyang nodded, "Not only did I find out, I also got the prescription she presented to His Majesty."

Mr. Qi and the others were all shocked, "What? She gave you the recipe?"

Qi Yiyang took out Shi Qingluo's painting and the paper she wrote on from his pocket and handed them to the old man. "This time, the recipe she offered is to make something rubbery..."

He roughly repeated what Shi Qing said when he arrived at the restaurant.

Mr. Qi and Mr. Qi and others quickly thought of some key points.

Qi Yiyang's cousin couldn't help but ask: "Shi Qingluo just gave you the recipe like that? When did you two become so close?"

Recently in the capital, the name Shi Qingluo has become very famous.

Especially Liang Youxiao and Xi Rong made everyone's eyes red with joy.

Also, because of Shi Qingluo, the emperor's attitude towards and punishment of General Xiao, many people now want to get in touch with and make friends with Shi Qingluo and his wife.

The cousins ​​of the Qi family did not expect that Qi Yiyang had become friends with Shi Qingluo without realizing it.

Qi Yiyang replied: "I met him and became friends with him when I went to Fucheng Township for the last exam."

"She gave me this recipe and asked our family to find these three plants to tap rubber. It was not given away for nothing."

"She wants 30% of our rubber production from the first three years, and we have to sell it to her at no higher than the market price."

Mr. Qi smoothed his beard and said, "It's a good thing to have conditions."

"You did a good job on this matter, otherwise the other two Duke's Mansions would have taken the lead."

Before, whether it was corn or sweaters, he was envious when he saw Old Man Liang and Old Man Xi showing off.

I was still thinking that my grandson was not doing well and was not as good as the playboys from the Liang and Xi families.

Now one of my grandsons is related to Shi Qingluo, which is good.

Moreover, he has always known that the Second Prince wanted to win over Shi Qingluo and his wife.

"Write a contract to Shi Qingluo. I agree to this."

Mr. Qi added: "In the future, spend more time with Shi Qingluo. It's okay even if you hang out with Xi Rui and the others. Just don't fall behind in your studies."

Learn more about how those two playboys are filial to their grandfather. This is the key point.

Now that he has a clear path with the old man, he no longer has to worry about being scolded by his own father.

Then he received envious and jealous looks from his cousins, and he felt secretly happy.

Didn't you mock him before? I can't say it now.

The cousins ​​of the Qi family were cursing Qi Yiyang in their hearts at this moment, for he was so lucky to get in touch with Shi Qingluo.

This guy was so sinister that they had no idea when he secretly became friends with Shi Qingluo.

It seems that the Second Prince will be more likely to use her.

They only hoped that Qi Yiyang's performance in the examination would be average, otherwise he would be outdone by the other party.

Especially the three young masters of the prince's family, they even hoped that Qi Yiyang would fail the exam.

Then Mr. Qi immediately sent someone to work on the rubber.

It also makes Qi Yiyang's presence in the Qi family stronger.

Naturally, the actions of the several families could not be concealed from the palace and those who were well-informed.

The emperor didn't mind it at all. Instead, he hoped that several companies could produce more rubber so that he could give the soldiers in the northern border a pair of rubber-soled leather shoes.

Other families immediately sent out spies to find out what prescriptions and benefits they had received.

After all, everyone knew that Xi Rui and others had met with Shi Qingluo before the several dukes' mansions took action.

Naturally, they also want to have a piece of the pie.

Starting from the next day, many people came to several companies to inquire about the situation.

But when it comes to things that require attention and big money, the people from these companies will naturally not take the initiative to leak it out.

As a result, Shi Qingluo became popular again. Many leaders of the families called the younger men and women and told them to make friends with Shi Qingluo if they had the chance.

Because of this, whenever Qing Luo went out, she would occasionally meet young people of the same age, who were all extremely enthusiastic towards her.

It's not a big deal if it happens once or twice, but if it happens frequently, it's a bit annoying, and she has rarely gone out recently.

At the General's Mansion, Xiao Yuanshi naturally also heard about this matter.

He didn't think of following the trend. After all, it would be too embarrassing if others found out.

But he still wanted to know what method that evil daughter-in-law used to get him removed from his position in the Ministry of War.

So they also planted spies to investigate.

He has been in a bad mood recently and has been staying in the general's mansion every day. He either gets drunk or goes to Taoliu's yard to complain.

He always avoided his darling wife, whom he wanted to hold in his mouth for fear that she would melt, and in his hands for fear that she would fly away.

He knew that although his dismissal was largely caused by his son and his wife, he suffered because his relationship with Ge Chunru was exposed.

So he is somewhat unable to face Ge Chunru now.

It was indeed she who approached him actively, constantly seducing him, and dragging him into this quagmire.

Although I still have feelings for Ge Chunru in my heart, it would be a lie to say that I don't feel any anger towards her.

The thorn has been planted.

When Ge Chunru couldn't see Xiao Yuanshi, he would often go to block him on purpose.

But Xiao Yuanshi always ran away early and went to Tao Liu's yard, which made Ge Chunru even more angry and she cried almost every day.

She was not stupid, so she naturally knew that Xiao Yuanshi took his anger out on her after being dismissed from his post because of their relationship.

She felt that she had suffered a great injustice and hated Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo extremely.

So she couldn't help wanting to return it, so she secretly asked her maid to contact Zheng Tongfeng.
