"Official family?" Uncle Yao was not stupid and asked immediately, "Who is the official family that the Ma family has contact with?"
Mrs. Yao pointed to the direction of the Yamen and said: "A few days ago, Ma Jicheng invited Chen Zhizhou to have dinner."
Uncle Yao: "..."
He thought it was a county magistrate, prefect or something, but it turned out to be a prefect, so the matter would be difficult to handle.
The Ma family's methods are not very bright. If it is obvious that there is nothing wrong with it, they are afraid that the other party will do something secretly.
Unfortunately, the officials the Yao family knows are all in the capital, and are either not high-ranking officials, or have no official power. If something happens, even if they want to rescue them, they may not be able to come in time.
"Are you worried...that the Ma family is behind the scenes?" Uncle Yao raised his eyes and looked at Mrs. Yao and asked.
Mrs. Yao nodded and said worriedly: "Well! I asked about some things about Chen Zhizhou, and it seems... not very clear. I suspect that the Ma family is waiting for an opportunity if they don't take action now."
By any chance, even if Mrs. Yao didn't say anything, Uncle Yao knew what she was referring to.
Now the Yao family is in the limelight, relying on Baixiang Pavilion to open up the market in Yunyang City, and is in the stage of making money. If the Ma family in Yunyang City really wants to make money, I am afraid they will not miss this opportunity - wait for Yao
When the fat sheep is almost raised, it can be...
For a while, the couple didn't speak.
Gu Qingling didn't know this. She just set up a line with her three daughters-in-law and let them go out to socialize. As for what the social interactions were like and what they learned, she didn't ask them in detail.
After all, one is the matron of the house, and the other two are also mothers. They are not ignorant little girls, and they need her hand in everything.
Compared to her who "comes halfway", Gu Qingling feels that natives like them are more aware of the unspoken rules of the social circle of this era and can adapt better.
As for her, it is better to be a "mascot" at home. If there is no important occasion, it is better not to run outside.
What's more, compared to playing tricks with those old ladies, madams, and young ladies all day long, Gu Qingling still prefers to train her children and grandchildren at home, while sorting out the recipes in the "smell-scenting space" and finding a few suitable ones for experimentation.
.
If the experiment is successful, it will be handed over to the people below to study and sell it; if it is not successful, the experiment will continue.
That cooling oil is something she recently experimented with.
I don't know if it was Gu Qingling's misunderstanding, but she felt that her food intake had increased recently, and she also felt sleepy easily.
Gu Qingling muttered: "Isn't it the sequelae of using too much space? Otherwise, I drink Lingquan every day, why would I still feel so tired?"
After calling the maid Chun Chun and asking her to bring a basket containing cooling oil, Gu Qingling planned to give the things to her four grandchildren while they came to have a meal with her.
The cooling oil she prepared for the four of them was not the pretty bitch in the hands of Uncle Yao, but something dripped with spiritual springs. It not only cleared the mind and made it easier for them to study, but also had great benefits for the body over time.
After this period of exercise, not only the sick Yao Anhong's body has improved a lot, but even Yao Anxin, who doesn't like to move around, also looks healthy.
Boys are fine, but girls are somewhat resistant when it comes to learning martial arts.
But Gu Qingling did not give them the right to be arbitrary. The courses she decided were "compulsory courses" that everyone must take, but the requirements for them were different depending on each person's situation.
Yao Anxin is our young lady, and she is already a 12 or 13-year-old girl. Even if she learns martial arts, it is a bit late. Gu Qingling does not want her to train to be a martial arts master. She just hopes that Yao Anxin can learn some boxing and kicking skills, just in case.
No matter what the situation, it can also bluff people.
Oh, by the way, she not only bathed them in the spiritual spring, but also had people prepare medicinal meals for them, all of which were good for strengthening their bodies.
Gu Qingling believed that after her careful training, they would be stronger than ordinary people.
It's just that Gu Qingling didn't intend to elaborate on this matter with them.
With this in mind, Gu Qingling arrived at the flower hall and found that Yao Anxin, Yao Anhong, Yao Anyi, and Yao Anling were already waiting there. Compared with the rejection when they first arrived, the four of them have adapted well now and have all made academic achievements.
Some progress.
Based on their performance, Gu Qingling posted a "wall poster" in the study room where they had classes, and put all the ratings of their daily performance on it.
Such shameful behavior almost made Yao Anling jump to her feet.
"Why are you so anxious? Weren't you still asking me before when you can go back? When your overall score is passed, I can give you a day off and let you go back to spend time with your parents." Old God Gu Qingling was there, even
Without even bothering to raise her eyelids, Yao Anling froze in place as she prepared to jump.
"Passed? How many points is considered a passing grade?"
"The average score is sixty points, any questions?"
Yao Anling immediately calculated her previous scores and found that except for a few things that she was not very good at, she had passed most of them. Not only had she passed, but some of them had scored as high as 80 or 90 points.
She suddenly gained some confidence and stared at Gu Qingling's face and asked, "Old lady, are you not going to lie to your granddaughter?"
"I always keep my word. When did I lie to you?"
So, after that day, Yao Anling studied very diligently, hoping to pass the exam as soon as possible.
Seeing this scene, Yao Anhong endured it and finally did not remind his sister: "Sister, sister, you were deceived by grandma. The old lady said that passing the average score is enough, but she didn't say when the average score was. You are working so hard now.
, what will you do if the old lady says it is not the average score at this time?"
In fact, Yao Anhong was overthinking it, and it was impossible for Gu Qingling to keep them in Ronghetang forever and not let them go back.
Ronghetang is her territory. If possible, Gu Qingling doesn't want a bunch of children to stay here all the time and turn her private place into a school.
However, the Yao family is now in unknown danger. Gu Qingling is not worried about letting these four only children out, so she can only "lock" them here temporarily.
When the situation became clear later, she immediately "driven" them out and "rushed" them to the real school.
snort!
At that time, if they want to miss the good times of Ronghetang, it will not be their fault.
This time I was distracted, I finished walking again.
Gu Qingling came back to her senses, greeted a few children, asked them to sit down, and then asked the maid Chun Chun to give them the prepared "cooling oil" and explained its use.
"Thank you, old lady."
The four children obediently accepted the gifts and silently made a note in their notebooks - remember to return the gift.
Sigh... What a troublemaker. The old lady's rules here are that once she gives them something, they must "return the gift", otherwise it will be unfilial.
Although they are still children and do not need to prepare any expensive gifts, just write a word or dig a vegetable and plant it in a flower pot, the old lady always gives them things, which makes them write down in their little notebooks.
There were so many "gifts" that were paid back piece by piece, and by the end they didn't even know what to pay back.
Words, written.
The food has been delivered.
Ahhhhh... I can't go out to buy anything, so what should I give?!
