Qiao Ran ignored the silly white tiger who kept circling around her and sat down next to Mrs. Qiao, who was playing with Xiao Ba on the mat, and told her what happened today.

Qiao Ran didn't mention the part about being followed and beating up the stalker because she didn't want to worry the old lady.

Mrs. Qiao still asked worriedly: "Ranran, your fourth uncle offended someone before he entered the academy. Will he be bullied when he enters in the future? Our family is just a weakling with no power, or is it a big one?" He is a refugee who has just escaped from afar and has not yet found his feet. If your fourth uncle messes with someone he shouldn't mess with, I'm afraid he will have a hard time in the academy."

"No, grandma."

Qiao Ran comforted: "I have inquired about it. The rules of Wanlu Academy are very strict. Students are strictly prohibited from bullying or fighting in the academy. Violators will never be allowed to enter Wanlu Academy again. And students who have been expelled from Wanlu Academy, Other academies are not willing to accept him. Therefore, the atmosphere in the academy is very good. My fourth uncle is safe in the academy. If I have to take a rest in the future, I will go outside the academy to pick him up and take him home. I will not let anyone bully my fourth uncle. .”

What she didn't say was that the arrogant young man who had been given itching powder by her would not be able to get rid of its effects within three days.

Therefore, the young master will definitely not be able to take the entrance exam the day after tomorrow.

Don't blame her for ruthlessly ruining a student's future. Anyway, she thinks that such an arrogant and domineering young master should not go to Wanlu Academy and influence other students' studies. She is also considering the future of other students.

Besides, since the young master’s family is so rich, why not just send him to any academy? If you really have real talent and study, you can still get ahead.

But for people like that, it's better not to stand out, otherwise they will be corrupt and ignorant officials.

Thinking that her son needed money to study, Mrs. Qiao took out a stack of banknotes from her lapel. It was Qiao Ran who had collected them from Wang Yuanwai on the way to escape the famine. She gave them all to grandma, and grandma gave her half of them. Keep it for yourself as a dowry.

In fact, Mrs. Qiao doesn't plan to use too much of this money.

If the family can't use the money, then they won't use it. Even if they have to use it, they should let their children and grandchildren work hard to earn more money in the future and give it back to Qiao Ran twice so that she can have a generous dowry when she gets married. If she has money, she can also I have the confidence to live in my husband’s family.

At this time, Mrs. Qiao took out all the banknotes and put them in Qiao Ran's hand.

"Ran Ran, you gave these banknotes to grandma for safekeeping. You took out two and used them along the way. I will ask your fourth uncle and the others to work hard to earn money and give them back to you. The remaining banknotes are still yours. If we collect it ourselves, our family won’t have to flee from famine now. When we open up the land and start farming, we will have food to eat, and there won’t be many places to spend big money.”

"Grandma, here is more than a hundred taels that you got from hunting game and selling skins along the way. This is already a huge savings that our family never dared to think of before. It should be enough for our family. There is no need for these banknotes, grandma I’ll give it to you and keep it yourself!”

"Grandma knows you have a treasure bag. If you leave it there, no one can steal it. It's much safer than leaving it here with grandma. From now on, you have to make more plans for yourself. Your uncles and brothers will also do the same in the future. You have worked hard to make money to support your family, so you can’t always be left to work alone. Keep the money you earn by yourself, and don’t give it to grandma.”

Qiao Ran felt very happy after hearing what the old man said.

Compared with most people in this era who use their daughters and granddaughters to exchange gifts and resources for their sons and grandsons, it is really rare for Mrs. Qiao to dote on her granddaughter and think about everything for her granddaughter!

She put the banknote back into grandma's hand, pressed her hand and said:

"Grandma, you don't have to worry about me. Don't you still know what I'm capable of? Last time I saved Mr. Mo and treated his injuries, and I got a few thousand taels in reward. In the future, I will also detoxify Mr. Mo. After the poisoning, there will be a huge medical fee."

"Also, our Devil's Valley is a good place. In the future, I will lead the villagers to grow high-yield grains, high-quality vegetables and fruits, and raise the most delicious fish... There will be many opportunities to make money in the future!"

"Grandma should keep the money! My fourth uncle is going to take the imperial examination and marry a wife in the future. Xiaodong and the others will also go to school in the future. There are still a lot of money needed. I still have tens of thousands of taels here. Banknote, is grandma still worried that I have no money?"

"As for safety, you don't have to worry. We all live in this valley, and outsiders don't dare to come in and steal things. These banknotes are safe with grandma, so you don't have to worry about being stolen!"

Mrs. Qiao couldn't resist her, so she had to put the banknote back into her pocket.

However, she secretly decided to give most of the silver notes to Hui Niang. She was Ran Ran's biological mother. She would buy a dowry for Ran Ran in the future, so it would be most appropriate to give the money to her.

On the day when the college held the entrance exam, Butler Zhou came to pick him up early again.

Qiao Ran felt very embarrassed at this time. In this winter, it was always troublesome for people to get up early in the morning, and they had to go through the bumpy and difficult mountain road to go into the mountains to pick up people.

She decided to do something today to get Jia Tongpan to agree that they could enter and exit the city gate normally.

Otherwise, the fourth uncle will go to the academy in the future. Is it possible that housekeeper Zhou will pick him up and drop him off every time he goes to school and has a bath? Then she can't do such a thing.

In order to thank Butler Zhou, Qiao Ran gave him a dozen green water fishes, several rabbits raised in the space using spiritual spring water, and red dates, persimmons, oranges, etc. grown in the space, which made Butler Zhou smile.

There was nothing surprising about the red dates and persimmons, but for this orange, Butler Zhou peeled off one, broke off two pieces of the orange flesh, put it into his mouth and took a bite, his eyes widened immediately.

"This orange is so sweet! I have never tasted such a sweet orange with almost no sour taste! Where did you buy this?"

Qiao Ran smiled: "I picked these in the mountains while escaping from famine. I kept some and planned to use the orange seeds to cultivate tree seeds to see if we can grow such delicious oranges here."

"Okay! Okay! This is a great idea! If it can be grown successfully, I tell you, this thing will definitely be a big seller! I have lived for a long time and have eaten oranges for so many years. What's the point? This is the first time I have tasted oranges that have such a strong orange flavor but are not sour at all.”

"Even in the capital, there are not many fruits to eat in winter. Many people store summer and autumn fruits in cellars. But if you eat them in winter, most of them are rotten or stale. Like Your fresh oranges, as well as these red dates and persimmons, are all hot commodities!"
