Chapter 203 The Little Husband Is Getting Darker
Qiao Ye had been making pills at home and had not gone to the county town to watch the play.
But when Lu Shao came back, he told her everything.
She asked curiously, "How is Lu Mei's husband's talent for studying?"
Lu Shao said: "The kind with a heart higher than the sky, but a life thinner than paper."
"It will be difficult for him to pass the exam to become a scholar with his talent."
Yu Dalang always thought that he had a good talent for studying and that his poor performance on the exams was due to his teacher's poor teaching.
In the previous life, the Yu family followed the ex-father's family to the capital, helped Yu Dalang get into a very good academy, and paid for famous teachers to teach him.
With the frequent guidance from his ex-father and Lu Zhoujin, Yu Dalang took the exam several times before he finally passed the examination and became a scholar, and he only ranked last.
Now Yu Dalang no longer has the resources he had in his previous life, and with his bad reputation, it is basically impossible for him to pass the examination to become a scholar.
Qiao Ye understood, "So even though you ruined their reputation, you still let him continue the scientific research."
"In fact, they just want to use him to hold the Yu family back and hold onto your ex-father's family."
It is difficult for a poor family to produce a noble son. In addition to resources and knowledge, the help from family background also focuses on money.
Books and study treasures are not cheap, and there is also an annual tuition fee.
Not to mention the village, even in ordinary families in the county, if there is a scholar in the family, the whole family has to tighten their belts to support him.
The Yu family was never a wealthy family, and their life now is considered good in the village, and they still have to rely on their scumbag Uncle Wu.
Now that Uncle Wu can hardly protect himself, he will definitely not take care of the Yu family like he did before.
But as long as Yu Dalang wants to continue studying, the Yu family will definitely not let go of their scumbag father.
As a human being, you always have to have hope.
Yu Dalang is the Yu family's hope for a change of fortune and a better life in the future, just like the Lu family treated their scumbag Uncle Wu in the past.
And with the young husband's instigation of Lu Mei, how could the eldest wife of the Yu family not be tempted by so much money?
My ex-father's family can forget about getting rid of the Yu family's bloodsucking.
It's going to be a dog-eat-dog situation next.
Sure enough, the little husband became darker and darker.
Lu Shao chuckled and said, "My wife still understands me."
The young wife understood him very well. No matter what he did, she could see through the purpose behind it.
He really likes this feeling of being in sync with each other.
Qiao Ye asked: "When are you leaving? Is the time confirmed?"
Lu Shao nodded, "Confirmed, three days later."
After leaving the county government office during the day, he went to his teacher's house again.
Qiao Ye was stunned, "So fast!"
Lu Shao said: "If I hadn't been accepted as a student, the teacher would have left long ago, so he said that he couldn't delay any longer."
Qiao Ye nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of the family."
Lu Shao took the initiative to shake her hand and said, "Madam, take care of yourself."
Qiao Ye thought for a moment and said, "Oh, by the way, I'll draw you a kind of flower. When you go to study, ask around and see if you can find it."
"If you have any, bring back the flowers and seeds."
"By the way, this flower is toxin-containing, so you have to wear a mask and gloves when picking it."
"I'll ask my aunt and the others to make some in the next two days. You can take them with you."
Lu Shao nodded, "Okay!"
Qiao Ye drew the appearance of a flower, and also noted its characteristics and precautions.
After Lu Shao finished looking at it, he asked, "What kind of flower is this?"
"This is called guayule. Although it is poisonous, the whole plant is a treasure."
"It can be made into pesticides and fertilizers."
“It can also extract rubber, and the resin from the rubber can be made into adhesives and paints.”
"I mainly want to use it to extract rubber."
Before, when she rode a wooden-wheeled ox cart to the county town, she felt it was bumpy and prone to slipping and wear.
When it rains, the soles of your shoes will be completely wet when you go out and come back wearing them.
She thought of rubber, rubber tires, rubber-soled leather shoes, etc.
But there are no rubber trees here and it is difficult to grow them.
But other plants that produce gum include guayule and eucommia.
The gum yield of guayule is high, the yield is high, and it is easy to grow.
She prepared to find some seeds and plant a patch of them on the barren hill.
You also need to plant Eucommia ulmoides, which is a medicinal herb. If you can find it planted, you don’t have to look for it deliberately.
You can directly purchase Eucommia seedlings and seeds.
Lu Shao asked: "What is rubber?"
Qiao Ye replied: "It can be used to make tires. Wrapping the wheels with a layer of rubber tires will not only make them waterproof but also more stable."
"It can also be used to make shoe soles, etc. It has many uses."
She also talked about the approximate distribution area and habits of guayule.
No one grows this thing anymore, and what exists now are all wild.
So you have to go look for it.
Lu Shao knew that his young wife knew a lot of things. He roughly knew what it was used for after listening, but he couldn't imagine it.
But it doesn’t matter. Once the young wife finds the rubber, he will be able to see it.
"Okay, I'll find a way."
In addition to studying abroad himself, he would also ask others to look for him.
Qiao Ye reminded again that no matter who goes to find the fruits, it is best to wear a mask and gloves when picking them, so as to ensure safety.
In the next two days, Qiao Ye made a lot of pills.
I also asked my family to make some masks and gloves.
She asked Lu Shao to take all these with him as backup.
That day, Xiao Qi and two others came to the village.
Qiao Ye and Lu Shao entertained together.
After drinking a cup of tea, Xiao Qi looked at Qiao Ye and asked, "Miss Qiao, how are the pills you mentioned earlier going?"
Qiao Ye stood up, took out three packages from the cabinet and handed them to Xiao Qi and the other two.
This is the pill I promised to make for them.
Giving it to Xiao Qi is the key point, Lin Hao and the others are just incidental.
Xiao Qi opened the bundle and saw more than a dozen small pouches inside.
Qiao Ye explained: "There is a porcelain bottle in the small purse, and the porcelain bottle contains the pills I made."
"I also wrote down the usage and effects of each pill on a piece of paper and stuffed it into each pocket."
“There are also words embroidered on the purse, corresponding to the medicine.”
"When you take the medicine, don't get it mixed up."
Xiao Qi picked up one of the purses, on which was embroidered the words "fever medicine".
He took out a porcelain bottle and a piece of paper from his pouch.
The paper states under what circumstances to take the medicine, how to take it, and what possible side effects may occur.
No matter what happens, you can't eat it anymore.
After putting it back, he found the purse of Malaria and opened it to take a look.
Everything written on the paper is exactly the same and detailed.
He looked through them all and found that although there were more than a dozen purses, half of them were duplicates.
Xiao Qi asked: "You prepared two?"
Qiao Ye replied: "There is one copy for you to try. Once you make sure it is harmless and effective, you can use it yourself or give it to someone else."
Whether Xiao Qi used it himself or gave it to the prince, it was impossible for him to actually eat it.
It must be checked by the imperial physician to see if it is poisonous, and the effects must be tried by people before it is dared to be used.
So she naturally prepared two.
Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Miss Qiao is thoughtful, thank you!"
He asked again: "How much do these medicines cost?"
He never thought of taking it for free.
If the effect is good, I will have to send people to Qiao Ye to buy it from time to time in the future.
