Pan Xiaoxian gritted his teeth: "What a fool, Wu Gui actually wants to steal the female school assistant teacher."
Zhang Fengyi said sharply: "You have no background. The assistant teacher in the female school has attracted the attention of the palace and will be snatched away by Wu Gui sooner or later. In the past, if Liu Rushi was not there to help you withstand the pressure, the position of the assistant teacher would have been replaced long ago. I can’t wait until today.”
To put it bluntly, just one sentence.
No money and no background.
Pan Xiaoxian was sick and rushed to the doctor: "Miss Zhang, can you lend me six hundred taels... no... one thousand taels of silver."
Zhang Fengyi knew Pan Xiaoxian's purpose of borrowing money and heard that Eunuch Huang only recognized money and wanted to use the money to secure her official position as an assistant teacher in a female school.
Zhang Fengyi said coldly: "Is it useful?"
Pan Xiaoxian's face turned pale and he was speechless. He remained silent until he left Eunuch Huang's house.
Just like Zhang Fengyi said, it is still useless to keep the official position of female school assistant with money.
Wu Gui was able to snatch away the assistant teacher of the girls' school not only because he paid 500 taels of silver, but also because the Wu family was a famous big family in Jinling.
Pan Xiaoxian spent money to keep his official position today, but tomorrow he will still be snatched away by Wu Gui, who comes from a big family.
The money Pan Xiaoxian borrowed was limited after all, and Wu Gui's family was now an imperial merchant.
Nothing is too much, just a lot of money.
Zhang Fengyi thought about how Liu Rushi had asked her to take care of Pan Xiaoxian before she left the women's school. She suppressed her disgust for men and told a piece of news.
Zhang Fengyi said in a distant tone: "This is a tea fighting competition. As long as you can win the first place, you can keep your position as assistant teacher in the female school and increase your value to the palace."
Pan Xiaoxian sighed heavily: "Well, it's just because it's a tea fighting competition that I feel there is no hope. Tea is most important for money. The better the tea, the more valuable it is. If you can't match Wu Gui's financial resources, you will definitely not be able to afford it." There’s no better tea than him.”
Compared to the disgusting Wu Gui, Pan Xiaoxian is more pleasing to the eye.
Zhang Fengyi continued: "Don't forget Yun Niang's identity. She is the number one cook in Jinling and knows the location of the only Dahongpao plant in Jinling."
Big red pouch!
Pan Xiaoxian's face was full of surprise and he said excitedly: "Really? You didn't lie to me."
Zhang Fengyi, as the top five chief catchers in Jinling, is more knowledgeable about some information than Dongchang. Most of Dongchang's energy is focused on officials, while the chief catcher in Jinling is in charge of all kinds of information among the people.
Zhang Fengyi rolled her eyes. Someone dared to question her knowledge of folk news. She snorted coldly and went back to rest with her long sword in hand.
Pan Xiaoxian couldn't sleep anymore and walked around the yard. He wanted to go to Yun Niang's house to find him now, but he thought it was not appropriate to do so at night.
Pan Xiaoxian could only go back to the room and sleep.
He tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, always thinking about what Zhang Fengyi said about Dahongpao.
"If what Zhang Fengyi said is true, Wu Gui will be wasting his money again this time."
Pan Xiaoxian was lying on the bed, thinking of Wu Gui's name, and wanted to bite off a piece of meat from him: "As long as Yun Niang is willing to help me find Dahongpao, Wu Gui's plot has failed again. Compared with biting it off from him, A piece of meat still suffers.”
Dahongpao is the best tea in the world.
There are no more than ten fingers of Dahongpao tea trees in the world.
Of the tea produced by Dahongpao every year, all the best fresh tea leaves have to be sent to the palace, and the remaining old tea leaves will appear on the market.
Even if it's old tea, only officials in red uniforms can get some.
When it was time to go on duty the next day, Pan Xiaoxian rushed to the Imperial College as quickly as possible and went directly to the kitchen of the girls' school.
Yun Niang lay lazily on a recliner, supervising a dozen cooks to cook for the daughter of a female school.
Pan Xiaoxian came to the kitchen door and said enthusiastically: "How did Yun Niang sleep last night?"
According to usual habits, Pan Xiaoxian had just walked over, and Yun Niang had already gone over to take advantage.
I don’t know what happened today.
Yun Niang glanced at Pan Xiaoxian, then turned her face away, unwilling to pay attention to him.
He seemed angry.
Pan Xiaoxian's heart skipped a beat. He could be angry at any time, but he couldn't be angry at this critical moment.
Pan Xiaoxian hurried over and comforted her: "Yunniang was bullied by someone, tell her his name quickly, and I will help you vent your anger."
"You."
Yun Niang sat up, a pair of plump white rabbits on her chest jumped up and down, and said angrily: "Now that someone is cooking for you, why are you here?"
Women are selfish and only want to be alone with men.
In the past, Yun Niang and Pan Xiaoxian had always eaten together, much like living together.
Pan Xiaoxian's sister-in-law Li Shishi suddenly moved from Jiming Temple to Jinling. It didn't matter that she moved here, but she was snatched away.
Since Li Shishi came, Pan Xiaoxian stopped eating with Yun Niang at night and went to Li Shishi's house for dinner every night.
Pan Xiaoxian was embarrassed. He stood aside and smiled, not knowing how to answer Yun Niang.
Yun Niang's eyes turned red: "You heartless person, tell me who you are and who I am. After all, I am the number one cook in Jinling who has fascinated countless young masters. Believe it or not, just call me, I am willing." The rich young masters who want to marry me can line up from the kitchen door to the outside of Jinling City."
Yun Niang became angrier and more angry as she spoke, full of complaints: "You are just a poor boy from the countryside. I have never looked down on you, and I have always been considerate and caring for you. Isn't it because I think that a poor boy like you is more honest than the young master?" When the right opportunity comes one day, let's live together. You'd better forget about me when you have a sister-in-law."
Pan Xiaoxian looked at Yun Niang, who was full of grievances, and suddenly felt that he was nothing and had failed Yun Niang.
Pan Xiaoxian smiled bitterly and said: "It's all my fault. I have indeed been negligent during this period, but I also have difficulties. I can't just ignore my sister-in-law when she comes."
Seeing that he had taken the initiative to admit his mistake, Yun Niang softened her heart, and most of her resentment and anger disappeared.
Yun Niang stretched out her finger and tapped Pan Xiaoxian's forehead: "What an enemy. I am such a stupid woman. Why do I want to marry you so much? I should choose a rich man with a good temper to marry."
Pan Xiaoxian became worried after hearing this, and quickly stretched out his hand to hold Yun Niang's soft, boneless hand, with a panic on his face: "Can you please don't marry anyone else? Give me a few more years..."
Pan Xiaoxian couldn't go on any longer and wanted to make a promise to Yun Niang.
It turned out that it couldn't be given at all.
Let alone a few years, it may not take more than ten years to climb to the official position of Jinling prefecture and wear a red official uniform.
With Pan Xiaoxian's rural background, no matter how sincere the promise is, it will turn into a boast.
