Chapter 79 Staying in the capital for her
But Xiao Yan was looking at him from the side, his eyes sparkling, and he looked like he could live longer than a turtle. How could he die?
Songyan was overwhelmed with grief, covered his head and stopped talking.
Lu Qiniang knocked on the table with a spoon, "Songyan, please tell me about the third place winner among the Five Young Masters!"
"It's all for you. Otherwise, the Fifth Young Master might have been the top scholar!" Song Yan said hatefully.
"Ah? I, I just said it casually, I didn't expect that, what a bad mouth he had, he actually won the third place! And I changed my words!"
Songyan: "...What are you talking about? I said that the Fifth Young Master was delayed because he wanted to file a complaint with the Emperor on your behalf."
"For me? Complain to the emperor?" Lu Qinniang was confused.
After she heard what Song Yan said, she was completely stunned and murmured, "Why is the Fifth Young Master so stupid! He shouldn't care about me!"
She couldn't help but wipe her eyes, "I made myself forget about that rotten guy like Zhang Heyao. How could he be so nice and still think about me..."
It’s not worth it. It’s really not worth it.
Her little trouble shouldn't hinder the Fifth Young Master's future.
She saw how difficult it was for the Fifth Young Master to come this far.
She also thought that she would rather have a beggar mother than a father who was an official, and the Fifth Young Master was a clear example.
So no matter how hard and difficult life was, she had to take care of the three girls by herself.
As a result, the Fifth Young Master has now been dragged down by himself.
She can't repay this favor!
The little thing between her and Zhang Heyao actually shocked the court and even the emperor knew about it?
This is too incredible.
To put it bluntly, isn't it just that Zhang Heyao didn't want her and married another one?
This is indeed a big deal for her.
But bringing this matter to the court for discussion is like overkill, isn't that like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut?
Lu Qiniang felt very guilty.
It not only delayed Zhou Xiaoyao's future, but also polluted the ears of the emperor and all the adults.
"Has the Fifth Young Master received his official position?" asked Xiao Yan, who had been silent all this time.
Songyan looked at the man picking peaches halfway and felt unhappy, so she ignored him.
Lu Qiniang said excitedly: "Yes, yes, how could I forget such an important thing!"
"Entered the Hanlin Academy." Songyan said unhappily.
"That would be great, staying in the capital, right? Could I become a high-ranking official in the future?"
What a bullshit!
Songyan thought to himself that the Fifth Young Master originally wanted to seek a transfer to another post.
He wanted to take her and her three daughters away from the capital, away from gossip and rumors.
But now that he heard that she was married and staying in the capital, the Fifth Young Master went to his teacher overnight to ask for permission to stay in the Hanlin Academy.
This is a path that everyone expects to take, which means a successful career and a bright future in the future.
But Songyan knew that the Fifth Young Master made this choice entirely for Lu Qiniang.
The Fifth Young Master wouldn't let him say it, and wouldn't even admit it.
But Songyan knew that was the case.
"The Fifth Young Master said," Song Yan said, "that he'll come to see you after he's done with his busy schedule. He said he's standing up for you not just for you, but for the millions of women who have been let down, and for justice, so you don't dwell on it."
"Ah, the Fifth Young Master has always been so kind." Lu Qiniang sighed, "He treats people well and even worries about making them feel like a burden. I've never met a better person than him."
Song Yan glanced at Xiao Yan and felt even more hatred in his heart.
Lu Qiniang, oh Lu Qiniang, you praised the Fifth Young Master as unique in the world, yet you married someone else.
Alas, this is what fate does to us.
The Fifth Young Master is really pitiful.
"Okay, I just want to tell you that the Fifth Young Master will come to see you again in a while. If you have any difficulties, let Erya come to me. Now, I can help you more than before." Songyan stood up and said.
"Okay. Wait, I don't have anything good to bring to Fifth Young Master, so take this jar of pickled radish back with you. If Fifth Young Master gets hungry while studying at night and wants to drink porridge, this will be a refreshing snack."
Songyan recalled the scene where Lu Qiniang tried every possible way to provide the Fifth Young Master with an extra meal in the evening, and couldn't help but sigh.
In the past, he felt that Lu Qiniang was not worthy of the Fifth Young Master.
Later I gradually accepted it and felt that she was a really nice person.
Who knew that he would not be able to be picky at all, as Lu Qiniang married someone else.
Songyan left with the dried radish.
Now that Lu Qiniang knew the whole story, she began to understand the gazes of those onlookers.
She wiped the table vigorously with a rag and shouted at the top of her voice, "Selling fried noodles, selling delicious fried noodles. Buy 50 kilograms and get 2 kilograms free. Buy 100 kilograms and get 1 kilogram free."
"Hey, that's not right. How do you run your business? Why do you get fewer gifts the more people buy?" a customer asked her.
Lu Qiniang looked at those who pretended to be nonchalant but were actually staring at her with cunning eyes, and laughed: "Buy 100 kilograms, get 1 kilogram for free, and three more questions for free. If you want to ask me and Zhang Heyao, just ask!"
These people are really bored and have nothing to do.
What's so curious about the little thing between her and Zhang Heyao!
Come and ask!
When they buy things from her, she tells them everything.
Xiao Yan actually wanted the right to ask these three questions.
But he didn't say anything.
Although Lu Qiniang shouted like this, no one had the nerve to ask questions.
However, her business has improved.
Those people really came to buy.
Although it was only three pounds for you and five pounds for me, we probably took it back to let our masters try the Bagua brand fried noodles, so we ended up selling quite a lot.
Lu Qiniang's income today was still more than three taels of silver, but it was close to four taels.
Today is still a day of happily counting money.
She even hoped that those people would come back tomorrow out of curiosity and give her money.
A scumbag is not worth keeping, but if someone gives her money, she will be happy.
However, good times also bring hidden worries.
Lu Qiniang was lying on the kang. This time she was smart and called out to Xiao Yan first: "Xiao Yan, are you asleep?"
Xiao Yan didn't answer immediately.
He felt that Lu Qiniang might talk about Zhou Xiaoyao again today.
To be honest, he didn't like to hear it.
"Fell asleep again," Lu Qiniang said, "You've been so sleepless, are you really sleep deprived?"
"No." Xiao Yan said lightly.
“You didn’t sleep!”
“Almost.”
If you say something I don't like, I will fall asleep very quickly.
"Then go to bed later," Lu Qiniang said, "I have something important to ask you."
"About whom?"
If you say "Fifth Young Master", I will immediately feel sleepy.
If you want to talk about others, I will listen at my discretion.
"You." Lu Qiniang said, "About you."
Xiao Yan: Then I won’t be sleepy anymore!
"you say--"
