After transmigrating into cannon fodder, he had sex with the villain

Made it.

Gu Zhao didn't think he came up with an idea, but it was just a reminder that as for Fang Zi's release, it was a matter of time, and besides, he made an agreement with the master in the temple, and the master would not leak it on purpose.

Afterwards, Gu Zhao didn't bother about the Qi's restaurant anymore, and took the old man and Song's mother around the city for two days, until they couldn't move anymore, and drove the two children to the government school, and they didn't need to accompany them anymore. Save their time.

What can Gu Zhao and Song Ze do?I had no choice but to go to the government school to enroll in school, and began to live a life of leaving early and returning to school at night.

Because Gu Zhao didn't live in the government school, Gu Mu couldn't follow him as a book boy. This made Gu Mu very depressed. When he was depressed, he insisted on picking up Gu Zhao. As for Song Ze, it was incidental, because Song Ze Going to the government school with my brother every day, we can stay together all day, so Gu Mu still has the boss's opinion on Song Ze.

What can Song Ze do?He can still have the same knowledge as a child, so he can only touch his nose and ignore his gaze.

The old lady at home, after overcoming her initial timidity, quickly integrated into the surrounding environment, talked to many people in the alley, and opened a vegetable field in the inner courtyard with the old man. I am also very happy, after all, the workshop did not get it done so quickly.

In this way, Gu Zhao can also hear a lot of gossip from his neighbors every time he returns home to eat with his family.

Their area is not considered rich, and there are scholars and small businesses living in the families, so the news is relatively well-informed.

When Gu Zhao was having dinner that night, the old lady mentioned something: "Zhaoer, the girl from the Hua family next door today wants me to go to Chongyuan Temple to burn incense with your aunt Song, and said that Chongyuan Temple The new vegetarian dish is very delicious, and it is said that this vegetarian dish is related to Qijia Restaurant, so it must be the idea of ​​you and Qi Ershao that day."

Gu Zhao was also surprised, the influence of Chongyuan Temple is good enough, and it spread so quickly: "It should be, does the mother want to go? If the mother wants to go, take Yao'er with her, because the father has to guard At home."

The old man is not happy anymore: "Hmph, my old man also has somewhere to go, I'll go fishing with someone."

Both Gu Zhao and Gu Yao laughed happily, and the old couple even got into a fight.

But Gu Zhao also noticed that after coming to the city and blending into the surrounding environment, the activities of the two elders increased a lot compared to before in Shuiyun Village. What other activities can there be in Shuiyun Village besides working and gossip?Even the old man has found the activity of fishing here.

After returning to the room, Gu Zhao found that Gu Mu was not very interested, but thinking about it, now Mu Mu has nothing to do except pick him up and send him to the school. Gu Zhao couldn't help but feel soft-hearted when he thought that Mu Mu might be the son of everyone before he lost his memory.

Putting down the book in his hand, he went over to pat Gu Mu's head: "What are you thinking about? Are you bored? Have you finished the homework assigned by your brother?"

Because he was worried that Gu Mu had nothing to do, and he wanted to learn more things. When he remembered everything, the things he had learned would not be in vain, so Gu Zhao would leave some homework for Gu Mu in the past few days. He reads some books, hoping to enrich his days.

In addition to Gu Mu, even Gu Yao has assigned certain tasks, not to teach Gu Yao to become a talented woman, at least to be literate, not only to open eyes, but also to have something to say to her husband and son-in-law after marriage in the future.

"Why don't you find a school for you, brother, and study with your master." In case no one is watching, Gu Mu will be lazy or fail to learn.

Just sitting there, Gu Mu reached out and hugged Gu Zhao's waist, buried his head in his waist, shook his head and said sullenly: "I don't want it, I don't want to go to school, I don't like other masters teaching me, I just like it." brother to teach."

Gu Zhao had a headache: "Didn't that brother see you as too boring?"

He was a little worried that raising Gu Mu all the time would make him useless, but seeing his little eyes made him feel weak again.

"When the workshop opens, I can show my brother the workshop and store, and help my brother earn money. I can make money." There is evidence that I made more than 200 taels of silver last time.

"But I want to see Mu Mu do great things, instead of hanging around my brother." This is a contradictory proposition, because Mu Mu only knows how to hang around him, and Gu Zhao is soft-hearted and trusts, but I don't want him to just hang around Turning around by himself delayed his future. Before he got married and had his own children, he had the trouble of raising children.

Gu Mu wrapped his arms around Gu Zhao's waist and swayed, "I just want to surround my brother, I just want to follow my brother, and my brother is not allowed to have other book boys."

What can Gu Zhao do?Shaken so much that he could only surrender: "Okay, okay, I promise, there will be no other bookboys, only Wood."

Gu Mu snickered, his brother was indeed soft-hearted towards him, and he was the most special towards his brother.

There was no shortage of rooms in the front yard, but Gu Mu wanted to squeeze a room with Gu Zhao.

Gu Zhao thought about it, and he could only relax by staring at Mu Mu and reading, and he could agree to other requests. Even if Mu Mu didn't need to take scientific tests to recover his memory in the future, there would be no harm in reading more books.

So Gu Mu also knew where the bottom line of his brother's indulgence was, so during the day when Gu Zhao went to school in the government, he could only pick up the book with a headache, staring at the words on the book, wishing to stare a hole out of it.

When Gu Zhao came back in the evening, he would try his best to spare time to explain and tutor him, and of course to check his homework.

Gu Zhao borrowed someone from Qi Yunfei to send the old lady Song's mother and Aunt Hua's family to Chongyuan Temple. There were no men involved, and the women, including Gu Yao, had a good time. , the two families went to stay for one night together.

A few days later, Gu Zhao and Song Ze also heard people talking about the vegetarian dishes of Chongyuan Temple in the government school. When they mentioned it, they all praised the taste of the vegetarian dishes. The family restaurant thought that the Qijia restaurant had done a good deed, and donated the prescription that was not passed on to the Chongyuan Temple, which was a righteous act and a great charity.

Qijia Restaurant was originally famous for the Buddha jumping over the wall, but now many people go there especially for the bean products that appear in the vegetarian dishes. You don't need to go to Chongyuan Temple, you can eat the same delicious vegetarian dishes in the city.

When Qi Yunfei sent the latest month's share, it actually rose to more than 300 taels this time, which even surprised the two elders.

Qi Yunfei not only came to send money, but also invited the elders of the Gu family and mother Song to live in Chongyuan Temple for two days. It happened that Gu Zhao was also resting at Song Zefu School. The time was right, and Chongyuan Temple sent someone to bring a Oral message, ask Qi Yunfei to discuss important matters with Qi's benefactor.

Qi Yunfei then combined office and vacation together. After this break, the soap workshop and shop will start.

The two elders responded immediately, and the old lady notified the Song family to go there. The old lady and Song's mother had been there once, and they liked Chongyuan Temple very much. He had wanted to go for a long time, but this time Qi Yunfei's idea was exactly what he wanted.

After Qi Yunfei finished speaking, he left, and the old lady immediately went to Song's house. Naturally, Song Ze and Song's mother did not respond.

After the old lady came back, she sighed in front of the old man: "Zhao'er didn't do anything, and in one month, he can get more than 300 taels of silver, which is no less than what our Guji Tofu Shop earns in a year."

When Qi Yunfei was around, the old lady didn't have the nerve to say it, but how could she not click her tongue in her heart, no wonder the old son doesn't worry about money at all now, the house was rented without blinking, compared to the monthly rent The income, the rent is indeed not expensive.

How can the old man not be surprised, but he can't lose his expression. At this time, he only showed joy in front of the old lady. The old son made him so proud, and retorted: "I didn't do anything anywhere, let's go to Qijia Restaurant The old and popular Buddha jumping wall that I have eaten is the recipe that our Zhaoer brought out, and the recipe of those soy products is also because of Zhaoer. Zhaoer said that this is called investing in shares, just like the soap business, but soap business account for more."

"Yes, yes, old man, you are right. It seems that we made the right decision to send Zhao'er to study, otherwise Zhao'er would not be able to see these things, and now he would not be able to make a fortune."

The old man had the same thought. It was the wisest decision he had ever made in his life to resist the pressure and send his old son to school.

With this money in the account, when the soap business opens, the old son will earn more money, and the old son's life will only get better and better, and the two elders don't have to worry about it anymore. Thinking about it like this, the old man squinted his eyes.

In the early morning of the second day, everyone got into the carriage and set off to Chongyuan Temple.

The temple is on the mountain, and when the carriage reaches the foot of the mountain, it needs to abandon the cart and walk up the mountain. There are many nearby people doing business at the foot of the mountain.

Among the group, Mother Song and Gu Yao were a little weaker in physical strength, but they were able to reach the top of the mountain by themselves.The scenery along the way was quite good, and they kept walking, and the two of them felt that it was okay.

In the temple on the top of the mountain, the abbot sent young monks to guard outside. It can be seen that Qi Yunfei really paid attention to the arrival of Qi Yunfei. Because the letter was delivered in advance, they were sent to the guest courtyard of the temple to have a rest. Qi Yunfei called Going to see the abbot with Gu Zhao and Song Ze, Gu Mu will naturally not be left behind. If he is left behind, Qi Yunfei is still worried that this kid will find ways to settle accounts with him.

Both the elders and Song's mother are not devout Buddhist believers. Like many ordinary people, they would go in to burn some incense and pray for the blessings of the gods and Buddhas when they encountered Taoist temples, so they didn't care about seeing the abbot, so they urged Qi Yunfei and the others to hurry over. Tell the abbot to wait.

The little monk withdrew after leading them to the abbot's residence.

"Benefactor Qi, these two benefactors must be Song Xiaosan, Yuan Song Xiucai and Gu Xiucai."

When Qi Yunfei personally came to discuss the bean product recipe with the abbot that day, he explained that the recipe came from Gu Zhao, and the results of the hospital examination not long ago spread everywhere in Fucheng, and the monks in the temple were not deaf to what happened outside the window. He only cares about chanting scriptures and serving the Buddha, so he has heard about both of them.

"I've met the abbot." Both Gu Zhao and Song Ze saluted respectfully. The abbot has a good reputation in Fucheng, and has organized temples and Buddhist believers to give porridge to the victims many times in disaster years.

"You two are welcome, please sit down."

After the abbot invited the three of them to sit down, he brewed the wild camellia he picked and planed himself. This is a rare treat. Of course, Gu Zhao and Song Ze didn't know much about it, so they thought the tea tasted very good. Seeing that they liked it, abbot He also laughed and said that when they left, they would each be given a bag of tea, and Gu Zhao and Song Ze thanked them.

"The reason why we found the benefactor today is because the vegetarian food of Chongyuan Temple has spread to other temples in Qingling Prefecture, so we sent people here to ask if we can learn from it, because this recipe is from the benefactor of Qi. In addition to the agreement with Master Qi, the old man has not agreed to them yet."

The abbot is in a good mood. Having received the gift from the benefactor Qi, Chongyuan Temple has become more prosperous recently, both in terms of reputation and incense, and the abbot also needs performance. There were many more tourists and Buddhist worshipers from outside Qingling Mansion, and most of them came for the vegetarian food at Chongyuan Temple.

Song Ze lowered his head and took a sip of tea, smiling at Gu Zhao and Qi Yunfei's responses.

Gu Mu obediently stood behind his brother without interrupting.

Gu Zhao raised his eyebrows. Based on the speed of the spread, he also wanted to taste the vegetarian dishes of Chongyuan Temple, so he said with a smile: "Then I have to taste the vegetarian dishes of Chongyuan Temple today."

The abbot proclaimed the Buddha's name, of course there will be no shortage of vegetarian dishes for the distinguished guests.

Qi Yunfei knew Gu Zhao's response when he saw Gu Zhao's appearance, so he also smiled and said: "It's an honor for me and Qijia Restaurant, and the master also knows that although white jade tofu and other soy products were rare when they were first launched, the ingredients are actually very simple. , When it is spread throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty, the common people will have more food on their dining tables, so it can be spread, which is a good thing, and Qijia Restaurant will not and cannot stop it."

This remark made Qi Yunfei once again get the abbot's evaluation of "great kindness". Obviously, this remark will also be spread among other monks who came to study.

When presenting Fangzi to Chongyuan Temple before, Qi Yunfei thought a lot about Gu Zhao’s words, and Qijia Restaurant has established a firm foothold now, because the reputation of donating Fangzi’s charitable deeds is even better, so Qijia Restaurant will think about it in the future. To keep the business, you only need to work hard on the taste of the dishes, not to mention that Qijia Restaurant also has the famous dish of Buddha Jumping Wall.

In the future, soy products will be spread all over the world, but because of the current actions, whoever mentions soy products and vegetarian dishes in the future will always mention Qijia Restaurant and Chongyuan Temple, the pioneers and promoters of clothing, and there will be more Many people come here from afar.

Of course, the level of cooking must not drop, otherwise no matter how good the reputation is, it will not stand up to defeat.

Of course, there must be some restrictions on promotion. This is what the abbot and Qi Yunfei need to discuss. Gu Zhao and Song Ze took Gu Mu away on the pretext of visiting the temple, and left the two of them to discuss specific matters. The abbot is not without food The fireworks in the world, on the contrary, because they have to manage a relatively small temple, they do not lack the shrewdness they should have.

After coming out, Song Ze asked with a smile: "You don't want to operate in the middle, so as to push your reputation out?"

Gu Zhao shook his head: "Master Song has already sent instant noodles and canned food to the court, so there is no need to add these, but it is not impossible for someone who is interested to inquire more, so there is no need to make an extra move to be too showy."

That's true, but Song Ze knew that although Gu Zhao appeared to be a bit out of touch on the outside, there were few people of his generation who were as calm as Gu Zhao: "I don't know when there will be news from Mr. Song."

Gu Zhao stroked his chin and said, "We must give the court time to verify the storage effect of the cans. Anyway, we still have to stay in Qingling Mansion for a long time, so we are not in a hurry to go to the capital."

If you want to gain fame, you have to guard against the Yongning Hou Mansion in the capital, otherwise why would Gu Zhao bother with this matter? In the last days, Gu Zhao is an ordinary person who survived those days by keeping a low profile. If it wasn't for the siege of zombies, he would still be able to survive longer.

The relationship with Mr. Song has been maintained here. It can be seen from Mr. Song's confrontation with the Yongning Hou Mansion that Mr. Song is not submissive to the Hou Mansion, so this relationship has been maintained. The Qingling Mansion can be protected by Master Song as a protective umbrella. If someone in the Yongning Hou Mansion wants to attack him, they have to see if they can pass the hurdle of Master Song.

During this period of time, relying on the frequent correspondence between Qi Yunfei and his eldest brother, and Gu Zhao's knowledge from the two novels, the Yongninghou Mansion does not have much power, especially outside the capital. The reputation of the Hou Mansion, in fact, many things can't be interfered with, but Mrs. Hou's natal family is an official outside Beijing.

While Gu Zhao and the others were admiring the scenery of Chongyuan Temple, the court in the capital also sparked a lot of controversy over the instant noodles and canned food sent by Song Cheng.

Regarding instant noodles, with the return of Mr. He, who studied politics at the beginning, this item has spread in a small area. Of course, people who have candidates at home have paid more attention to it.

Neither the emperor nor the ministers believed in the storage time of the cans mentioned in Song Cheng's excerpts, so it took time to verify the effect, so every other month, the emperor would have people knock open a few cans to verify Whether the food inside has started to spoil.

During the first month of verification, only one can was stinky when opened due to a problem with sealing it, but the other cans were all good, and one of them was Buddha Jumping the Wall. After heating, the ministers shared food After it was verified that it was non-toxic, a bowl was served to the emperor.

The reputation of Buddha jumping over the wall has spread to the capital. This name has made a lot of contributions. Everyone wants to know whether even the Buddha can't stand the delicious dishes. Is it too exaggerated or is it worthy of the name? After a month of experience, if you go to the local area to taste fresh Buddha Tiaoqiang, the taste will definitely be higher.

The two-month deadline is up, and the emperor and ministers have a little more expectation in their hearts. If the food can be kept for two months, the effect can be improved a lot. After being canned, it can be used as rations for the army, and it can also be transported to the Central Plains. It is fresher than dried meat.

Opening the canned food that had been stored for two months, to everyone’s surprise, only one jar was spoiled this time, and the others were still intact. The canned fruit can be eaten directly, and the meat tastes better after heating. Not much different from a month ago.

"It's really a blessing for me in the Zhou Dynasty to be able to store it. Your Majesty is overjoyed!" The clever minister immediately congratulated the emperor.

The other courtiers secretly thought that they were really flattering, but then they couldn't wait to say a lot of good things.

His Majesty tasted canned fruit and Buddha jumping over the wall, and was in a good mood. He wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, put down the handkerchief and said: "I understand the thoughts of all my lovers. This is indeed a blessing for my Great Zhou Dynasty. Ladies and gentlemen, Next, I need to trouble you to carefully draw up a charter, and I think the strategy mentioned in Song Aiqing's notebook is very second."

Several assistant ministers of the cabinet immediately stepped forward to accept the order. This will not be achieved in a day, and it will take a long-term process to gradually change the relationship with foreigners.

The emperor smiled and said, "I have to reward Song Aiqing for her contribution this time, as well as the scholar named Gu Zhao mentioned in Song Aiqing's excerpts."

Yong Yibo was also present, because he presented these cans on behalf of his son-in-law, so he would also be present when the cans were opened, and the emperor specially called him here.

Hearing the emperor's words, Uncle Yongyi was very happy in his heart. His son-in-law has contributed, and his uncle has also contributed. Speaking of all this, it was brought by Gu Zhao, a scholar. Thinking of the entrustment in the letter from his son-in-law and daughter, Uncle Yongyi stepped forward. So he took credit for Gu Zhao's kind words.

How to reward meritorious persons is a problem. For example, Uncle Yongyi and Song Cheng are nothing more than being promoted to rank. Of course, Uncle Yongyi’s contribution may not be enough to be promoted to rank, but it is also very important to reward some treasures for the emperor to write down his credit in his heart. Alright, but Gu Zhao is clearly a white body who is still studying, so how should he be rewarded?Is it not enough to reward some gold, silver and jewelry?

Yong Yibo smiled and said: "Now this scholar Gu Zhao has passed the college examination and has become a scholar in my Great Zhou Dynasty. I heard that his ranking is good. Maybe in a few years, His Majesty will be able to meet this young hero who offered advice in the capital." gone."

"Haha, okay, I can't wait to meet this scholar." His Majesty the Emperor has a very good impression of Gu Zhao. People and scholars are like Gu Zhao, how could the Great Zhou Dynasty not be prosperous?

Today's emperor is still a very enterprising emperor. Maybe his health is not very good, but he still wants to follow the example of Tai and Zu. He hopes to become a wise emperor in history books in the future and sing praises for future generations.

However, some people think that the reward for Gu Zhao can be postponed for a while. I heard that Gu Zhao is still young and has not yet reached the crown. Now that he has been rewarded heavily, I am afraid that it will be too late and make him lose his ambition prematurely. It is better to reward him with some money. Silver, so that Gu Zhao, who was born in a farming family, can study without any worries, so that he can serve His Majesty and the court better in the future.

The courtiers at the scene were divided into three factions to argue. Of course, the faction represented by Yong Yibo supported the heavy reward. The other faction thought that there was no need to be too high-profile, and it would not be too late to reuse Gu Zhao when he entered the court in the future. The rest were neutral factions. Everyone thinks it is good, and it seems that no one can be offended.

His Majesty the Emperor took a compromise and decided that in addition to rewarding Gu Zhao with a sum of gold, silver and jewels, he would also send an angel to the Qingling Mansion to deliver His Majesty's commendation. If he is white, he will be deprived of the reward he deserves. The three factions have no objection, so they are very happy.

Yong Yibo is actually quite satisfied with this result. Regardless of how much he asks for, he also knows that it is impossible to realize what he said. This is a room for others to bargain. Sure enough, there are many people who oppose it. The result is still in his mind. above expectations.

The most important point is that His Majesty takes Gu Zhao in his heart. As long as Gu Zhao strives for himself, he can come to the capital and pass the test to go to the court hall in the future, and he will definitely be admired by His Majesty. Remember, standing out among the many Jinshi on the list is equivalent to standing out, and then there are many benefits.

The present reward is to make a name for Gu Zhaozheng.

Because this matter was not brought up at the court meeting, the other courtiers were a little slow to know that a scholar under the rule of Qingling Mansion in Jiangtai City had made a contribution, and His Majesty wanted to reward him personally. Although he sent an angel, he only rewarded some money Silver jewellery, some courtiers just heard about it and didn't take it seriously. Who will remember it in the court after a few years?

Paying attention to him is better than paying attention to Song Cheng who has made great achievements. When Song Cheng returns to Beijing after his term of office, His Majesty will definitely give him a promotion.

Marquis Yongning also heard about this matter, and what made him pay more attention was that it happened in Qingling Mansion, and it was also reported by Master Song Cheng, the magistrate of Qingling Mansion. Marquis Yongning felt that he had a good relationship with Song Cheng, so After the court meeting, he still expressed his congratulations to Yongyi Hou. When Song Cheng came back, at least one of the fourth-rank officials would not be able to escape. His son-in-law had a bright future.

Yongyihou glanced at Yongninghou with a half-smile. His daughter and son-in-law did not hide anything from him about the matter between Yongninghou and Song Cheng, including the fact that Yongninghou meddled in the dispute between Gu Zhao and the Gao family in Qinghe County and wrote a letter to his son-in-law. Unexpectedly, Marquis Yongning was so confused that he didn't even recognize Gu Zhao, who was the recipient of this award, and treated him as a stranger.

"Where is it, Lord Hou has won the Sacred Heart, the son is also a young talent, and the future will be better than my son-in-law."

Marquis Yongning was not happy when others praised his son. He smiled and said a few more words before he reluctantly separated from Hou Yi. Hou Yi shook his head when he saw him leaving, although his daughter and son-in-law only described the whole thing , did not bring into my own subjective speculation, but based on the fact that the son-in-law wants to fight for Gu Zhao's credit, we can get a glimpse of something. Hou was fooled by the woman so that he didn't know anything about it.

I don't know which woman in the Hou's mansion is so supernatural that she extended her hand to his son-in-law to rule her.

On the same day, Yongyi Hou sent people to rush to Qingling Mansion to deliver a letter to his daughter and son-in-law.

Qingling Mansion.

Gu Zhao and his entourage spent two days in Chongyuan Temple, and they didn’t return home until the afternoon of the second day. In addition to the beautiful scenery, Chongyuan Temple also cooks vegetarian dishes well. The dishes are very popular with everyone, no wonder people from outside the Qingling Mansion come here admiringly, and monks from other temples also want to come and learn.

The elders of the Gu family and Mother Song had a good time, but after returning to the city, they will be busy with the soap business.

After discussing with Gu Zhao and Song Ze, Qi Yunfei put the workshop on a Zhuangzi, which he bought on purpose, so that the workshop could be protected from prying eyes to the greatest extent, and Gu Zhao streamlined the entire production process. People are responsible for different parts, even if they communicate with each other, they will not understand what they are responsible for and what they are used for, so the soap recipe can be kept secret to the greatest extent.

Some people were bought from Zhuangzi, and the villagers around Zhuangzi were invited to work, and they signed a stricter contract with them, but because of the high wages, no one would be unwilling.

The raw materials are also purchased, and the work is about to start. Although Gu Zhao wrote the steps clearly, Qi Yunfei was confused about the chemical reactions involved, so at first Gu Zhao was required to supervise it himself, and Song Ze was very grateful. Interest, plus to accompany his mother, so like Gu Zhao, he asked for a leave of absence from the school to accompany him to Zhuangzi.

The raw materials are actually quite simple. Gu Zhao asked Qi Yunfei to buy the main quicklime and soda ash, which need to go through chemical reactions to produce the required alkaline water. In fact, it is caustic soda, and its chemical name is sodium hydroxide.

Quicklime and soda ash are found in nature, and soda ash is used in pharmacies and dye workshops. Gu Zhao also inquired about it and found out that it is not difficult to buy, otherwise the soap business will be stuck in the production stage, and it is not as good to use plant ash to refine it. Generally convenient for mass production.

Gu Zhao led people to operate it himself. Quicklime needs to be fired into mature lime before it can be used. Gu Zhao doesn’t need to worry about it. He can just find a place to build a kiln for firing. The required temperature can be achieved by today’s kiln. It is worth noting that That is, the alkaline water produced in the end is relatively corrosive, and you need to pay attention to safety issues when making it.

Finally, in front of several elders and Qi Yunfei and Song Ze, Gu Zhao poured the fused thick substance into the mold again: "This is it. After standing for about ten days, the soap will be made. It can be sold in demoulding packaging."

Everyone present was very excited to try it out by themselves, but Mother Song and Gu Yao had the strongest hands-on ability and careful heart, and the soap they made was the best, so it was decided that Mother Song would be in charge of making soap. It is also the most important step in making soap, and it needs to be checked by your own people.

Song's mother accepted the job under everyone's persuasion. Gu Zhao saw that Gu Yao was interested and asked her to come over to help Song's mother when she was free. Gu Yao was a little happy but afraid that she would not do well.

Qi Yunfei smiled and said: "Don't worry, our workshop has hired some female workers, and Miss Gu will only need to deal with the female workers."

The reason why female workers are hired is also because female workers are more careful than male workers, making soap is also a meticulous job.

The old lady thought that she would be involved in the shop, so she didn't stop her granddaughter from coming out to do things, so she also said: "Listen to your uncle and Qi Ershao, you can learn more when you come out."

They come from farming families, but they don't have the rules of rich families. They pay attention to girls who don't leave the house. In order to make a living, girls and daughters-in-law of farmers' families have to work in the fields just like men. Capable women may not work in the fields better than men. Poor job.

Gu Yao blushed and nodded in response. She really wanted to learn more. Although she missed her parents and brothers and sisters after she came out, she likes it even more now. It makes her feel that she is very useful and can do many things. of.

The workshop quickly started to operate according to the steps and rules set by Zhao Zhao. In addition to making ordinary soap, medicated soap and scented soap were also produced. One month later, the soap shop officially opened.

However, before the soap shop opened, there was another major event related to Gu Zhao, that is, the commendation for him and Song Cheng came. After the angel representing His Majesty the Emperor saw Song Cheng, Song Cheng brought the temporary Gu Zhai, of course Song Cheng first sent someone to notify and remind him that he was going to receive His Majesty's angel.

As early as when he received the letter from his father-in-law, Song Cheng notified Gu Zhao and told him to wait for a good thing. It is not necessary to say what the good thing refers to. Gu Zhao also reported to the two elders first, lest they come panic.

But the elders and Gu Yao were still flustered, and of course they were very proud. It turned out that Gu Zhao not only did business with Qi Er Shao to earn money, but also made great contributions to the court. Even His Majesty the Emperor wanted to reward their family Gu Zhao Well, it's definitely smoke rising from the Gu family's ancestral grave.

I just don't know if the Gu family's ancestral grave is still there after being submerged by the flood, the Gu family escaped to Shuiyun Village, and now there is only such a group.

It means that Gu Mu doesn't take the emperor seriously, and shouldn't the court reward his brother. Of course, he is very happy that his brother will be rewarded.

"The angel is coming?"

"Yes, Lord Song will lead us here later, but parents, don't panic, neither Lord Song nor Your Majesty will embarrass us." Gu Zhao comforted his parents and Gu Yao, and did not want to make Gu Yao avoids it, it should belong to her life trajectory, such a scene is just a trifle.

Everyone quickly put on the best clothes and waited for the angel to arrive. For the existence of the father-in-law, especially the emperor and saint, as ordinary people, they still feel awe.

You must know that the common people at this time are in awe of the officials, and the biggest official they can see may be the county magistrate. This time, there are not only the magistrate, but also the people around the emperor.

But looking at Gu Zhao with a calm face, the old man and the old lady felt that they could not embarrass their son. Compared with when they first came to Qingling Mansion, they have improved a lot in receiving people and things during this time.

"Here, here! Meet the angels!" The people around Song Cheng rushed to remind Gu Zhao and them.

As soon as the words fell, voices from outside came in. Gu Zhao took his family to salute Mr. Song and his father-in-law. The scholar who had just been admitted as a scholar was also very interested, and told him to observe himself carefully, so he didn't put on airs to Gu Zhao, and put on a high-ranking and domineering posture.

It’s just that when there are oral instructions and thanksgiving, he still bows and bows. Gu Zhao kneels while complaining in his heart. of.

The man has gold under his knees, isn't he kneeling now is gold, the emperor is good to him, in addition to verbal praise, he also rewarded him with a hundred taels of gold, that is 1000 taels of silver, for ordinary people, this amount of silver Definitely a lot, and of course Gu Zhao wouldn’t think too much, the more the better.

In addition to the gold hundred taels, there is also a pair of jade pendants, a jade ruyi, the texture is naturally not bad.

"Student Gu Zhao thank you."

The old man and the old lady worshiped more sincerely and were ecstatic.

The angel talked with Gu Zhao for a while, conveying His Majesty's concern for Gu Zhao, encouraging him to study hard, and to serve His Majesty in the court in the future.

Naturally, Gu Zhao had nothing to do with it. He acted like he was moved, and he almost swore to be loyal to His Majesty to the death.

The angel is very pleased. I heard that this little scholar came from a peasant family. He grew up in the countryside, but his behavior and speech attitude are not much different from some young men in Beijing. The first time the angel saw it, he thought Good: "Our family felt kind-hearted when we first saw the young master. Our family and His Majesty are waiting for the young master in Beijing."

"The students will definitely work hard to live up to His Majesty's expectations."

The angel left after a short stay. The two elders wept with joy, and the neighbors around were alarmed. The battles along the way had already made them understand what was going on. They didn't see that the prefect was personally accompanying them, so as soon as they left, They gathered around and asked what was going on.

After wiping away the tears that shed happily, the old lady said excitedly: "This is from the capital. It is my son who has made meritorious service. The saint sent an angel to reward him. It is the reward of the saint."

The crowd exploded, it was actually a sage's reward, they were all envious, good words were poured out as if they didn't want money, their eyes glued to Gu Zhao's body wanted to stare at a flower, and they all thought about what was suitable for themselves or their relatives My daughter, it would be great to be an in-law. If there is no girl of the right age, she will cast her eyes on Gu Yao who is aside. Such a good girl will be happy to marry back and confess.

It is conceivable that in the coming days, the old lady will welcome a wave of people who want to talk about marriage, including Gu Zhao and Gu Yao.

This matter spread quickly throughout the Qingling Mansion, and the government office of the Qingling Mansion will also spread the news to the county magistrate of Qinghe County, where Gu Zhao is located, and then the county magistrate will notify the Shuiyun Village where Gu Zhao came from. How excited the whole Shuiyun Village will be.

After making a small fortune and leaving the name of His Majesty the Emperor, Gu Zhao said he was very happy. After he was happy, he should do what he should do. The old man and the old lady should be so excited that they couldn’t sleep at night. Gu Zhao’s attitude brought Make them calm down too.

Because Gu Zhao said: "Your Majesty will really remember me only if I pass the Jinshi examination and show up in front of His Majesty. Otherwise, it will take a long time, not a few years, maybe a few months, a year or two, and I will be forgotten. It is because His Majesty has too many people and things to care about."

The old man and the old lady understood this truth, and the old man calmed down and said: "Therefore, there is an old saying that is very true, you need to be hardworking yourself, and Zhao'er needs to rely on your own skills if you want to get ahead, but parents I'm already very happy, there must have been no one in the ancestors of our Gu family who was personally named and commended by the sage."

The old lady narrowed her eyes with a smile, nodded and agreed: "Yes, yes, including the Zhao family, there has never been such a thing.
