Chapter 103 Note
Xu Huan hurriedly asked, "What's not suitable?"
Su Qin said helplessly: "Lord Xu thinks too highly of me, I'm just a country girl, even if it's a little whimsical, it's just accidental, where can I compare to a truly knowledgeable person? If you want to worship me as a teacher, you will really torment me."
Xu Huan's brows tightened.
"But I've been tossing around in this area for many years, and I've never seen someone with such ideas as you, you obviously have great talent!"
"Your Excellency."
Seeing Su Qin's humble appearance, Xu Huan said with a solemn expression, "Then let's do it! Gu Niangzi doesn't want to accept me as an apprentice, so I can always spend money to ask Gu Niangzi, right? I don't have many requirements, as long as Gu Niangzi tells me how to take care of vegetables on weekdays."
After speaking, Xu Huan looked at Su Qin expectantly.
His requirements couldn't be lower.
Su Qin was a little moved, and when he thought of the system, he immediately wanted to agree.
But before she could reply, her sleeve was gently pulled by Gu Nianlan next to her.
Gu Nianlan shook her head quietly.
Su Qin understood what she meant, this was because she didn't want to get too close to other men, so as not to affect her reputation...... However, the system task was there, and Su Qin really couldn't help it.
She gently patted the back of Gu Nianlan's hand to comfort the other party, and then turned to Xu Huan and said, "I agreed."
Xu Huan's face was happy: "That's great! When will Mrs. Gu start teaching me when she is free?"
Su Qin thought for a while, "Just tomorrow."
Xu Huan nodded again and again, as if he was afraid that Su Qin would regret it: "This matter is settled, I will come to Gu Niangzi tomorrow to ask for advice."
Su Qin answered.
Xu Huan's actions can be regarded as in a hurry, and after getting the answer he wants, he left without any delay.
Su Qin watched the people go away, and then took Gu Nianlan's hand to the backyard, she explained: "Auntie, that Lord Xu is an official of the imperial court after all, as the saying goes, if the people don't fight with the officials, we can't offend him. And he doesn't want much, let me teach him to farm, don't worry, I'll pay attention to the distance, don't think about it."
Gu Nianlan didn't know this truth, she let out a long sigh.
"Brother and daughter-in-law, we have both been together for so long, I believe in your character, you are measured! I'm afraid of the mouths of those people outside! There are so many people staring at you outside, and Ah Ci is not at home. If you and Master Xu get too close, they will definitely gossip, and I'm afraid you won't be able to stand those gossip!"
What a terrible thing to say!
Su Qin's heart warmed slightly, and he smiled slightly at Gu Nianlan.
"I walk properly and sit upright, so I am not afraid of those idlers chewing on the root of my tongue, I just need my eldest sister to believe me."
"Eh, I believe in you!"
Gu Nianlan held Su Qin's hand tightly, and the hanging heart fell to the ground when she met the firm gaze.
Next.
Early in the morning, Su Qin got up from the bed. She wants to go back to the village today, because she had agreed with the villagers before that she would build more vegetable greenhouses today, and they felt that they were not ready to build it, so they had to ask Su Qin to go to the village to supervise the work, so as not to have any problems. Su Qin couldn't resist it, so he agreed.
She was about to inform Gu Nianlan when she heard a knock on the door.
She went over to open the door and saw that the person standing outside was not Xu Huan!
Su Qin was surprised: "Why did Lord Xu come so early?"
Xu Huan didn't seem to have slept well last night, his face was pale, and even his eyes were dark blue, but his eyes were bright and his tone was excited, "I'm here to remind Gu Niangzi." I heard from the villagers that today the village built a vegetable greenhouse, and I am afraid that Gu Niangzi will be too busy and forget this stubble."
Su Qin couldn't help but chuckle, "It's not like I'll forget about it. Master Xu, come in and sit down and rest for a while."
Xu Huan shook his head: "That's not necessary, let's go back to the village quickly, it's more important to build a vegetable greenhouse."
Su Qin: "......"
It can be seen that this Lord Xu is really interested in farming.
"Let's sit down for a while, I just have a book I want to show to you."
Hearing this, Xu Huan didn't insist anymore.
After he sat down in the lobby, Su Qin went back to the room and took out the agriculture-related book he had copied before, and put it in front of Xu Huan: "This book may be of some use to adults."
Xu Huan looked at the bound rough book, with a puzzled expression: "What kind of book is this? Why doesn't the cover even have a title?"
Su Qin said calmly, "Your Excellency will know at a glance."
Xu Huan opened the book in confusion, and slowly, his eyes widened.
The books are all about farming!
He only flipped a page or two, and then he realized that it was powerful, and the hand holding the book trembled slightly: "This is a good book! Where did Gu Niangzi get it?"
Su Qin had already thought of his words: "I bought it from the caravan, I asked the people in the caravan, but they got it by accident, I don't know who the author is, and I learned all the common sense of farming from this book."
Xu Huan said excitedly, "Then I'll borrow Gu Niangzi's book and take a look, and return it as soon as I finish reading!"
Su Qin nodded, "Feel free to do so."
At this time, Gu Nianlan also came out of the room, and when she saw the two of them talking in the lobby, she was stunned for a while.
Su Qin was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he hurriedly pulled someone to the inner courtyard to explain, and told her about going out again.
Gu Nianlan's expression was complicated after hearing this.
She looked at Su Qin, then at Xu Huan in the lobby, and couldn't help but pat Su Qin's hand and admonish, "You must be careful, don't fall into your mouth."
Su Qin smiled, "I will."
Su Qin left the winery with Xu Huan. On the way back to the village, Xu Huan held the book in the palm of his hand like a treasure, walked around and took a look, and couldn't put it down for a while. Even when he walked to the entrance of the village, he carefully put the book in his clothes, put it on his chest, and patted it gently like a child. Su Qin, who had witnessed everything, only felt funny: "It's just a book, why should adults be so careful?"
Xu Huan said seriously: "Although this is only a book, the content on it is priceless, I have never seen this advanced planting technology before, it can be said to be something out of the world!"
He had just taken a cursory look at it, and if what was written in the book was true, what was to dig ditches, divert water for irrigation, what to strengthen labor intensity, tap the potential of the land, and then apply it after proper research, it would be simple to farm the land in the future......
Su Qin raised his eyebrows.
She originally wanted to tease Xu Huan again, but the villagers who had been waiting in the village for a long time saw her at this time and ran excitedly; "Gu Niangzi, you're finally here!"
"The big guys have everything ready, just waiting for you to get to work!"
When an aunt heard this, she glared at the young man who spoke.
"What do you think everyone is as strong as you? Go away, I brought food for the Gu family's daughter-in-law, and I'll talk about it after eating."
As she spoke, the aunt handed over the prepared buns, "It's so early, I must have missed breakfast."
Su Qin didn't feel hungry, but when she saw the buns, her stomach really screamed, and she took the buns with a red face.
"Thank you, auntie."
