The Little Lucky Girl
Chapter 155 Competition
The boss hesitated for a moment, feeling that he was not sure. What if he really angered others as Master Cao said, wouldn't that backfire?
He patted Master Cao on the shoulder and encouraged him, "Then it depends on you to get in touch with the doctors more and win some opportunities for our escort agency. The brothers and I will never forget your contribution."
Master Cao clasped his fists happily and said, "Don't worry, Boss. I will try my best."
He had a smile on his face, but he felt extremely bitter in his heart. This old doctor was fictional, so how could he meet him?
When Master Cao went to Xiaguan Village for the first time, Master He hinted to him to do more and talk less, and not to tell anyone a word about these children.
At the beginning, when he saw Feng Xu and the other two training, they were complaining and afraid of pain, and they would try to be clever and cheat from time to time. They were no different from those young men who had just joined the escort agency.
But after Ming Youyou made the first pot of plaster, Zheng Huan and the other two found him and asked him to keep the matter secret. If anyone really asked, they should say that it was made by an old doctor who lived in seclusion.
At the same time, they also promised that no matter what price the plaster is sold at in the future, as long as he places an order, the price will definitely be the most favorable.
The serious expressions of the children made this well-traveled middle-aged man feel pressured for a moment. He realized that the identities of the three people were extraordinary, so no matter how the boss hinted at it, he didn't dare to say a word.
Master Cao brought the gift from the owner of the cloth shop. Ming Youyou glanced at Zheng Huan and saw him nod slightly. She happily took it and started to open the box with Feng Xu.
The two of them exclaimed from time to time, and Feng Xu said, "This shopkeeper Pang is quite generous."
Lu Tai calculated in his mind, "It's nothing compared to what he makes."
Ming Youyou stroked a few pieces of fine cotton cloth with her small hands. She felt that the popularity of the sandbags was unexpected. They did not contribute to the business of the cloth shop, so they were a little uneasy about accepting this gift. After thinking for a while, she asked, "Didn't Bao Wenkang say that the city is very lively recently?"
"Yes, it seems that some wealthy master is celebrating his birthday and has invited a troupe to perform for a month. Bao Wenkang said that the city is like the New Year now, and he even invited us to go and watch it next time we have a day off." Feng Xu was very interested and encouraged him, "How about you talk to Lord Tao and give us a day off?"
Ming Youyou ignored him and turned to Master Cao and said, "I think many students in the academy will go out to play on the day of rest. Please pass this message to Shopkeeper Pang."
Master Cao thought for a while before he understood. He nodded in agreement and sighed in his heart that this kid really has the talent to do business.
Suddenly he found that Zheng Huan was looking at him. The pressure in his eyes made his heart jump. Master Cao didn't know why he broke out in a cold sweat. He understood it instantly and promised hurriedly, "I will mention this matter casually and will never reveal a word here."
Zheng Huan retracted his gaze and said calmly, "That's great. Just consider it as our repayment of the favor. If you need any more gifts in the future, you don't have to send them."
Master Cao subconsciously wanted to cup his fists to say yes, but when he raised his hands, he suddenly realized that the person in front of him was his student, not his master. He awkwardly raised his hands above his head and changed them into a head-patting gesture.
Seeing Ming Youyou moving a few pieces of cloth around, Zheng Huan couldn't help but smile and said, "If you like it, ask Mrs. Guo to make clothes for you."
Ming Youyou shook her head. "We just made clothes last month, and we usually have to wear school uniforms, so we won't have room for any more clothes."
She blinked and said, "Why not give it to Sister Yuxiang? Then I can continue to practice tie-dyeing. After I'm done, I can sell it for several times the price."
Master Cao immediately took a few steps back and said that he heard nothing.
Wow, it turns out that the blue flowered cloth that Jinxiufang sold as many as they could get and that people would rush to buy no matter how expensive it was was also made by this kid.
Thinking about the information inadvertently revealed by the people of Xiaguan Village, it seemed that those special foods were also related to this child. Master Cao finally understood that the people that Master He wanted to protect included not only the three young masters, but also this little girl who he originally thought was the most inconspicuous.
Ming Youyou didn't know that Master Cao's eyes had changed when he looked at her. She was thinking about what kind of painting she was going to prepare for this dyeing process.
Feng Xu suggested: "It's autumn now, why not just draw a few chrysanthemums?"
"Too vulgar," Ming Youyou said, "and not challenging at all."
The three were surprised, "When did you become so ambitious?"
"Yeah, why are you making it so hard on yourself?"
"Who said I have to draw it myself?" Ming Youyou chuckled twice, and thinking that there were other people in the room, he said cryptically, "The two of them left the topic of this competition to me to decide."
Zheng Huan and the others immediately became excited when they heard this. They all wanted to watch the fun and not mind the big things. "Then we have to think about it carefully. It has to be difficult enough to match the status of the gentlemen."
"Hehe, we just happen to want to add an illustration to our storybook, and change the title to be more relevant to our story."
Lu Tai was careful and asked, "Gentlemen, do you agree that we can use the paintings?"
Ming Youyou thought for a moment, "Master Wu Niangzi will definitely be fine, but I'm not sure about that person. However, he always compares himself with my master. If he knows that Master is willing, he might be able to do it."
They were relieved and started flipping through the books. After arguing for a while, they finally decided on a satisfactory one, "Let's choose the line 'as graceful as a startled swan, as gentle as a swimming dragon' from Cao Zhi's "The Goddess of Luo River", and let them each draw a fairy."
Feng Xu smiled evilly and said, "The best-looking one will be printed on the cloth for you; the average-looking one will be used as the illustration for the female ghost in our storybook."
Master Yin's competition with others has become a hot topic in the academy.
In the beginning, Ming Youyou was the one passing the two people's paintings around. Later, the students found it interesting. Those who had painters teaching at home also brought their teachers' paintings and challenged Master Yin with great interest.
Master Yin accepted all the invitations and painted in return for each one. Later, some of the painters came directly to the academy and wanted to compete on the spot. When the gentlemen in the academy heard about it, they couldn't help but come to join in the fun, turning the class into a grand event.
The students stared at the painters' pens and listened to the comments of other teachers. As a result, everyone's painting skills improved a lot. Principal Pei and the school supervisor saw this and acquiesced to this approach. They also moved Master Yin's class to the last period in the afternoon so that they could arrange their time freely.
Maybe it was because it was inconvenient for Han Wuniang to be present, but Master Yin was very polite to all the painters present. However, when he commented on Han Wuniang's paintings, there was always a hint of contempt in his eyes.
