The food was ready, Song Chu went to deliver it to Gu Yue first.

The people at the educated youth point have gotten used to her delivering meals to Gu Yue recently. Every time this time comes, Jiang Zhiqing and several other female educated youth who used to say bad things about Song Chu would hide in the room.

This time when he entered, Gu Yue did not read a book, but sat at the table writing something.

Song Chu walked over and took a look, and found that he was writing an article.

"You're still submitting articles?" No wonder this guy had someone in his family sent down to the countryside, and he lived a pretty good life as an educated youth. He looked like he had no shortage of money, and he probably received subsidies for his articles.

Gu Yue put down his pen after hearing her words, "Well, make some extra money."

"You went to high school before, right?" Song Chu put the basket on the table.

Gu Yue put away the manuscript and brought out the food, "I have already graduated from high school."

"Then you must have been a genius student before." Song Chu discovered that this guy was not only good at science and engineering, but also had good literary talent.

This was the first time Gu Yue heard this term, "Study God?"

"It means that you can crush the people around you in studying. You always get the first place in every exam. It takes others a long time to learn a piece of knowledge, but you can master it in one go," Song Chu explained.

Gu Yue smiled and said, "If that's what you mean, then I'm a genius student."

From elementary school to high school, he never ranked second in exams, and there was a big gap between him and his classmates.

Song Chu smiled and said, "Gu Xueshen, I have something to trouble you with."

Gu Yue laughed: "It turns out you have done so much preparation, you are waiting for me here."

"Not really. I'm really praising you for being a genius student." Song Chu was also a genius student before the end of the world, definitely the kind of kid that other people's kids are like.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Gu Yue said and started eating.

It was not until noon that he heard from Song Laosi that Song Chu always brought him food before going back to eat, so it didn't waste time.

Song Chu told me about going to the county town to press oil today and wanting to buy an oil press. "They agreed to sell us three oil presses, but they are old and obsolete. The technicians in the county town are too troublesome to help repair them, so I thought of you."

Gu Yue swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "I have studied the structure and principles of many machines, but I have never studied the oil press. I am not sure if I can fix it."

"If I show you a book on the principle and structure of this type of oil press, can you fix it?" Song Chu asked.

Although she is also a top student in science and engineering, she is more inclined towards biology and botany. She knows a little about mechanics, but is not good at it.

Gu Yue was stunned, looked up and asked: "Are there any books on this subject in your half of the library?"

"Yes, I have a book on machinery, which contains this type of oil press, as well as updated and more advanced models of this type."

Song Chu said with a smile: "If you understand it thoroughly, I think we can not only repair the oil press, but also tinker with a newer model based on the original machine."

This was her real purpose in looking for Gu Yue.

Repairing a machine is only temporary, only a modified and updated one can be used for a long time. Otherwise, the aging machine is too easy to malfunction and its lifespan is too short. It may be scrapped after a period of use. That would be a shame.

Gu Yue was very interested in what Song Chu said. "No problem. If I thoroughly understand the mechanical book you gave me, I believe I can create something new based on the original one."

"Then it's settled. I'll come over after lunch tomorrow and stay with you for a while. You can go in and read quickly." Song Chu said.

After she got home, the family started setting the table for dinner, all in anticipation of her.

After the family finished their meal, Song Chu told his uncle that he wanted to buy an oil press.

Everyone in the family was very surprised, and at the same time felt a little confused.

Tang Feng couldn't help but ask, "Yaobao, why did you ask your uncle to buy an oil press so that he can share the oil with the whole village?"

"You were the one who discovered the oil tea. Our family just picked it and took it to the third son's wife's brother's house to press the oil, and then secretly sold it to make a lot of money."

She added: "It can also be used as your dowry when the time comes."

"..." Mrs. Song, who was originally very happy, changed her expression instantly after hearing this.

I don't know what's wrong with the old lady's heart. Who would give so much dowry when marrying off their daughter nowadays?

Song Lao Er and Song Lao Si immediately said, "Yes, little sister, it would be great if we squeeze it ourselves and sell it."

It’s good enough that you don’t go to the villagers to take advantage of others, why do you take the initiative to let others take advantage of you?

They felt that their little sister had a brain disease, and it was a serious one.

"Our family is so poor, little sister, you can't be stupid. The oil must be pressed by ourselves." Mrs. Song put the matter of dowry aside and decided to make sure the oil is pressed at home first. She also wanted to send a few bottles of oil to her parents' home.

Song Chu looked around her family. Her father and elder brother were both henchmen who didn't care about anything, but this time even they showed expressions of disapproval.

She knew that it was impossible to reason with these extreme people. Even her mother was used to taking advantage of others. If she let them be taken advantage of, it would be as painful as cutting her flesh.

So we have to fool people in other ways.

Song Chu said, "I'm not trying to take advantage of others. I'm doing this for the good of our family."

"What do you mean?" The whole family looked at her, not understanding.

Song Chu explained: "Our family's image in the village is too prominent, and most of the people we see are negative, so we have to change everyone's impression."

"I want to take the entrance exam to Capital University in the future. I heard that they will check my family background and resume, and also want to know about my daily situation in the village. If someone says something bad about me, then I may not pass the review, and you will be embarrassed too." She had to exaggerate to fool people. Anyway, her family members didn't understand these things, and this was the only way to get her mother to stand up first.

She changed the subject and continued, "If we accomplish this, our family will be the heroes of the village. Then they will have to act according to our wishes. Just think how great it will be."

"If we have a good reputation in the village, our family members won't be criticized when they go out. We can go out with our heads held high and be the pride of the whole village." This is a key point for family members who care about their reputation.

The villagers often complained about their family behind their backs. There was no doubt that their image as an excellent family was deeply rooted in people's minds.

After hearing what Song Chu said, Tang Feng thought about it, and decided despite the pain, "Okay, we can't hinder you from taking the college entrance exam in the future, so go ahead and do it."

She didn't care about the gossip, but she couldn't ruin her daughter's bright future.

Besides, if they really get it going, they will have face when they go out. See if those people dare to say bad things about their family behind their backs. Whoever dares to say that will not be given any oil, huh.

By the way, she could also go out and show off her daughter. The more she thought about it, the less painful it felt.
