Hu Sanlang looked bitter, "Mr. Luo, I have really tried my best. Mr. Luo's people saw it a year ago. I was seriously injured. That woman is really stubborn."
Luo Hao spread his hands, "What does that have to do with me? You help me get things done, and I help you get things done. It's a fair deal for both of us."
Hu Sanlang gritted his teeth and said, "How about I just tie her up and ask her to hand over the prescription?"
Luo Hao looked at Hu Sanlang as if he were a fool, "Are you out of your mind? If I forcefully get the prescription like this, how can I still use it? As soon as I use it, won't people know that I stole the prescription from her?
I really don't know what's going on in your head? I don't know how you passed the exam..."
Luo Hao paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "Oh... I see, you also cheated to get admitted, right?"
Hu Sanlang passed the examination for a student three years ago, but Luo Hao wronged him. He really passed the examination based on his own ability.
But he was a little impatient, so he took part in the college entrance examination in the second half of the year.
But he was found to have slipped a small note into the exam and was disqualified from taking the exam.
The act of slipping a note into a bag is serious, but it is not serious either.
If you are disqualified from taking the exam, you must have someone to guarantee you if you want to take the exam again. And the person who guarantees you must have a good reputation.
But who would vouch for someone who cheats on an exam?
In the past two years, Hu Sanlang had been looking for someone to help, so Hu Sanlang turned to Luo Hao.
This Luo Hao is the nephew of the provincial education commissioner, and has now passed the imperial examination and become a scholar.
But he certainly wouldn't personally guarantee Hu Sanlang, he could find someone else.
Luo Hao also went to Yangshan County for a trip, where he tasted the braised pork. After asking around, he learned that the braised pork was made by Zhang Hulan.
Luo Hao also found out that Zhang Hulan had been commended by the emperor, so he could not take the prescription away by force. He could only let Zhang Hulan give up the prescription willingly.
Hu Sanlang was also from Changning County, and happened to need him to do something, so Hu Sanlang came to propose marriage.
Luo Hao also came up with the idea. He wanted Hu Sanlang to use the "beauty trap" to marry Zhang Hulan, and then get the prescription.
But Zhang Hulan didn't take the bait.
Hu Sanlang said again: "Mr. Luo, can't you change the conditions? How much money do you want to help me get this done? Just name your name."
Luo Hao sneered again, "I asked? You are so arrogant. How much money can you make in a year with your brick kilns? I want 10,000 taels, do you have it?"
Hu Sanlang felt frustrated. If he wanted ten thousand taels, why did he need to beg so humbly?
Luo Hao waved his hand and said, "Think of another solution. Maybe you are not attentive enough or sincere enough."
When Hu Sanlang left the teahouse, he cursed in his heart, these children of high-ranking officials are really good-for-nothings.
But he didn't think about what he was.
Hu Sanlang was walking on the street, heading in the same direction as Zhang Hulan and the others had walked.
Zhang Hulan took Zhang Xinyao and Zhang Xinyi to a jewelry store to buy some jewelry. When they came out, they ran into Hu Sanlang.
Zhang Hulan and Hu Sanlang were both stunned.
Hu Sanlang was pleasantly surprised and said, "Sister Zhang..."
When she heard this name, Zhang Hulan felt like vomiting, so she pulled Zhang Xinyao and Zhang Xinyi away.
"Sister Zhang, don't go..." Hu Sanlang hurriedly caught up, "Sister Zhang, why did you come to the city? Where do you live? If you don't have a place to stay, I have a place to stay."
Zhang Hulan stopped, turned around and looked at Hu Sanlang, and said in a cold tone: "Don't follow me anymore, or don't blame me for being rude."
After Zhang Hulan finished speaking, she took Zhang Xinyao and Zhang Xinyi away.
But why didn’t Hu Sanlang keep up?
He continued to follow Zhang Hulan, "Sister Zhang, are you here to do business in the city? I am familiar with the city. What do you want to do? I will help you..."
Before he could finish the words "I'll help you", Zhang Hulan turned around and punched him.
Hu Sanlang screamed, covered his nose with his hands, and tears came out of his eyes due to the pain. Blood from his nose flowed out through his fingers.
Zhang Xinyao and Zhang Xinyi widened their eyes. It had been a long time since their mother had fought with anyone...
People passing by were also stunned. Some passers-by who didn't know the reason thought that Zhang Hulan was too unreasonable; because Hu Sanlang looked like a scholar, and scholars had a very high status in the hearts of ordinary people.
Especially some older ladies, they like the kind of fair-skinned young scholar the most.
"How can you, woman, hit people so casually?" An old woman spoke up for Hu Sanlang.
Zhang Hulan was in a bad mood and glanced at the old woman. "What does it have to do with you? Do you know the reason?"
"No matter what the reason is, you can't hit people casually, especially when the person you hit is a scholar..." The old woman was very angry.
Zhang Hulan looked at the old woman and asked, "Do you have a son?"
The old woman was a little stunned. She didn't understand why Zhang Hulan asked her if she had a son, but she still nodded and said, "What's wrong with me having a son?"
Zhang Hulan asked again: "Do you have a daughter-in-law?"
The old lady replied: "I have grandchildren."
Zhang Hulan smiled and said again: "If a man wants to marry your daughter-in-law, what will you do?"
The old woman was stunned. "What do you mean? Why are you so vicious?"
"I am vicious?" Zhang Hulan pointed at herself and said angrily, "Are you blind? Didn't you see me with my daughter? Didn't you see him pestering me? You start accusing me without knowing anything. What kind of logic is that?"
"I..." The old woman was speechless after being confronted by Zhang Hulan and could only stare blankly.
Everyone around looked at Hu Sanlang:
"Oh my~, he looked like a gentleman, but turned out to be a scoundrel..."
"Oh my god, this scholar doesn't look that old, how could he like a woman who is already married and has a child?"
"This appetite is really unusual..."
Hu Sanlang's face turned red. He didn't expect Zhang Hulan to be so disrespectful to him. There was cruelty in his eyes.
This happened in the provincial capital. If this gets out, how will he survive in the provincial capital?
Hu Sanlang glanced at Zhang Hulan, then turned and ran away.
Zhang Hulan was still shouting from behind: "If you dare to harass me again, I will beat you up every time I see you."
The old woman also felt embarrassed and walked away dejected.
Zhang Hulan ignored the onlookers and left with her two daughters.
Zhang Hulan's mood was not affected and she continued to take Zhang Xinyao and Zhang Xinyi shopping.
But Hu Sanlang, who had run away, turned around and followed Zhang Hulan, her mother and daughter from a distance.
He had a crazy idea at this moment.
If I could get the recipe and make Zhang Hulan disappear...
There was no need to give the recipe to Luo Hao, he could just take it to other places and sell it.
He also heard some information that Zhang Hulan had bought more than a thousand acres of land, which must have been all from the money earned from the braised meat business.
If he could make so much money, then this recipe must be worth a lot of money. If he sold it, he wouldn't have to do anything for the rest of his life. So what if he didn't take the imperial examination?
