Dressed as a super rare female, being chased and pampered by the big guys
Chapter 398 Not enough to eat
The buzzing sound was annoying. Lou Ang glanced at Nian Tu and did not intervene immediately, as if he wanted to see how she would react.
The usual peaceful smile on Nian Tu's face disappeared.
When her face was expressionless, her aura made people feel as if they were facing the emperor, with a strong sense of oppression. She looked around from left to right, and wherever her eyes went, the sound suddenly weakened, and everyone subconsciously showed a dodging attitude, not daring to meet her eyes.
In the silence so quiet that one could hear a pin drop to the ground, Nian Tu looked at Lou Ang.
"An official from the Ministry of Industry, is this what you're talking about?" Her tone was indifferent, not really a question, but it was like a slap in the face, making Lou Ang's face burn red. He immediately bowed and apologized to her.
The head of the department had already slid to his knees, and the rest of the people followed suit, lowered their heads, and stopped talking.
Nian Tu didn't say anything polite about forgiveness or not. Seeing that they had all calmed down, he waved to the door.
After receiving her order, a group of the emperor's personal guards entered one after another carrying a bunch of things that people had never seen before. After placing them properly, they left in an orderly manner without making any other noisy noises throughout the process.
The comparison between the two makes the officials of the Ministry of Works appear frivolous, rude, and inappropriate in their words and deeds.
Everyone showed a bit of embarrassment on their faces, some of them couldn't raise their heads, but they couldn't resist their curiosity and secretly glanced at the pile of strange-looking things.
A large black board, thin white strips, a few glass bottles of unsightly shapes, and some liquids and lumps whose ingredients were unclear...
Nian Tu leaned over and picked up a homemade chalk, wrote the word "Chemistry" on the blackboard, and tapped it twice to attract everyone's attention. "Chemistry can be simply explained as the study of change and creation. Everything in the world has its own composition, structure, properties, and changes. What we need to do is to understand its laws and make use of them."
"The principles behind the Taoist alchemy techniques of making ice with saltpeter and refining copper with gallstones are closely related to this discipline. If you can study this discipline well, you will naturally be able to master the power to split mountains and rocks..."
Her volume and speaking speed were just right. After all, she had worked as a part-time tutor on Earth before, and later raised a group of children, so she already had a lot of experience in giving lectures.
With just a few words, everyone's eyes, including Lou Ang's, lit up.
Regardless of whether the story of splitting mountains and cracking rocks is true or not, the fact that Nian Tu could express such remarks and opinions is enough to prove that she is definitely not an ignorant and foolish beauty.
Pairs of eyes eager for knowledge stared at her, their gazes burning as if they wanted to stare a hole through her. Even the lazy people who usually just slacked off and ate a salary were now aroused with interest.
Nian Tu suddenly stopped and glanced at everyone, "Of course, you may think this is nonsense. If you don't want to waste your time with me, you can go and do your own thing."
Not everyone is interested in or talented in chemistry. For those who are not interested in it, it will be useless even if she forces them. It is better to let them stay or go voluntarily.
She just asked one more question in a very calm manner. After all, even in the Ministry of Engineering, most people were liberal arts students in various senses. They had never been exposed to science education and might find it difficult to accept new theories for a while.
The officials were all anxious, thinking that she was angry about the offense she had just caused. They were afraid that she would walk away in anger and would not want to teach them anymore. They panicked and apologized repeatedly. Some even knelt down and kowtowed, begging her for forgiveness.
After all the confused displays of loyalty, no one left.
After all, even if you are not interested, no one wants to learn less than their colleagues. If you miss the opportunity, it will be difficult to integrate in the future.
A clever young official servilely brought a chair for Nian Tu to sit on and offered her tea. Lou Ang, with a serious face, drove the official away and took his place, brewing a cup of fragrant tea for Nian Tu.
Nian Tu gratefully remembered the young face, sat on a chair piled with several cushions, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
My waist is sore...
She will definitely give the kitten’s head a good rub when she gets home today, otherwise she will never be able to get rid of the hatred in her heart!
Dragging his tired body, Nian Tu cheered himself up and lectured from early morning till lunch break with his tenacious will, using language that was as simple and easy to understand as possible to teach people about chemistry from scratch. At noon, he had lunch with officials from the Ministry of Industry and tried their canteen, finding the food to be mediocre.
Sure enough, no matter what era, the taste of the cafeteria's big pot meals is hard to describe.
Officials who were more particular about food would send people to deliver meals or bring meals to work. Those who were bolder would secretly observe Nian Tu's expression and offer to offer her their own meals.
In the early morning, such behavior of concern and goodwill would never appear, but after a morning of classes, they have developed a subtle admiration for Nian Tu, and the nonsense about him being a demon and a disaster has long been thrown out of their minds.
Nian Tu rejected their kindness one by one.
She looked down at the food she had only taken a few bites of, rubbed her brows, and felt a little worried.
Suddenly, the surroundings fell into an eerie silence.
Then, everyone knelt down and shouted, "Your Majesty."
Nian Tu suddenly opened her eyes and when she looked up, the corner of the bright yellow clothes was already in front of her.
"Every year."
In full view of the crowd, the emperor placed the food box in his hand on the New Year's table, and stood aside like a young wife, and began to put out the contents of the food box one by one, with subtle flattery revealed in his behavior.
“……”, Nian Tu glared at him.
Tan Konglin seemed unaware and shamelessly washed his hands, wiped them with a towel, and then began to serve the dishes skillfully.
"Ahem," Nian Tu looked at Shunxi for help.
When the old eunuch met her gaze, he understood instantly and quickly stepped forward to take over the work from the emperor's hands, "I will serve you."
Your Majesty can do whatever you want behind closed doors in the palace, but please maintain your noble image outside!
Tan Konglin did not argue with him. He found a chair for himself and sat down next to Nian Tu. He took out a small pillow from somewhere and put it behind her waist. Then he brought the cafeteria meal that she had difficulty eating to himself.
His Majesty the Emperor ate the leftovers very elegantly and calmly.
However, no matter how elegant or calm they are, leftovers are still leftovers. The officials were dumbfounded and speechless at the scene.
Nian Tu took a deep breath, reached out and pinched his thigh under the table.
The male's muscles were too hard to twist, so it was a waste of effort.
Only after he had finished eating all the food did Tan Konglin wipe his mouth, giving a very high-sounding reason, "Every grain of rice and porridge is hard-earned, and should not be wasted."
If the emperor was so frugal, how could the officials dare to waste food? All of them burst into tears, and shouted "Your Majesty is wise" while cleaning up their own meals. If they couldn't finish it, they would pack it up and take it home to eat in the evening.
Nian Tu: “…”
Everyone was working so hard, but she became the most awkward person present. No matter how good the imperial kitchen's cooking was, her appetite was limited and she would be full after eating only a little.
Tan Konglin had a good appetite, so she didn't have to worry about waste.
After staring at his strong yet slightly childish profile for a while, Nian Tu's mood gradually calmed down. With the support of a small pillow on her waist, the soreness and weakness were relieved a lot, and her anger also dissipated.
Why bother with a young male in his teens?
At this age, people are not always full and their desires in every sense are insatiable, whether it is appetite or other things.
She made him wait for so long, couldn't she allow him to be greedy a little?
Besides, it’s not like she didn’t have fun…
After the meal was over and everything was cleaned up, Tan Konglin carefully touched Nian Tu's fingertips. Nian Tu lowered her eyes and fluttered her eyelashes, but did not move away.
But there were too many onlookers and she still felt a little uncomfortable. She let him hold her hand for a while under the cover of the table, but when she saw that he was getting too demanding and wanted to bring it out in the open, she withdrew her hand that was already burning with heat.
She raised her eyes to look at the expressions of the officials and saw that some of them looked around and pretended not to see anything, while the others had complicated expressions and actually looked at her with sympathy and pity. When they saw her looking at her, they gave her a look that said "I understand".
Before, they were obsessed with the appearance, and only thought that the enchanting concubine seduced the master. Now, seeing with their own eyes, Nian Tu clearly had a very bad attitude towards His Majesty, looking at him coldly and shaking off his hand to avoid intimacy.
It turned out that His Majesty forced her! !
"?", Nian Tu was completely confused. He always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with their reactions, but he couldn't figure it out. So he simply stopped thinking about it. He pondered the afternoon's content in his mind for a while, knocked on the blackboard, and continued his lecture.
The bright yellow figure stuck to her side, with no intention of leaving.
It was quite stressful to attend the lecture with His Majesty. None of the officials dared to act rashly, and the atmosphere was much more depressing than in the morning.
But as Nian Tu started to do a small experiment, they gradually became active again, their minds full of questions, and they begged Nian Tu to answer their questions.
Tan Konglin observed the attitudes of the ministers for a while, then withdrew his gaze with satisfaction. His eyes fell on the glowing graceful figure of his beloved, and he could not take his eyes away.
Until the evening, when it was time to get off work, everyone was still reluctant to leave. They had never been so keen on staying in the Ministry of Works.
When they heard that Nian Tu would start instructing the personnel in charge of gunpowder research and development tomorrow and would no longer teach them, there was a sudden sighing among the people.
"Can you really not speak for a few more days?"
"I am still a young official, and I am afraid I am not qualified to be involved in gunpowder manufacturing, but..."
After decades of life, or even decades of service as an official, it was the first time for them to know that there were such profound and mysterious principles in the universe. One day was enough to just scratch the surface.
Nian Tu is so talented, why can't she stay in the Ministry of Works? Now she is hidden in the deep palace by His Majesty without any name or status, and has to bear the stigma of being a beauty who brings disaster. It's really pitiful and a pity!
The ministers dared not speak out of turn and could only glare at the emperor in secret.
Tan Konglin looked normal and calm, and was even secretly delighted in his heart.
It was just a day of lectures and discussions, but those guys from the Ministry of Industry completely changed their attitude, completely forgetting how much they disdained Niannian before. After all, Niannian was the most powerful.
He would not stop Nian Nian from doing things. As for what to do, Nian Nian had her own arrangements and he would not interfere. No one from the Ministry of Works could change her mind.
Despite the pleas from the Ministry of Industry, Nian Tu remained firm and said, "These are the only basic principles I can teach you."
Everyone has to explore the road together. Her purpose is not to feed them or instill useful things into them all at once, but to plant a seed. The subsequent development will be accomplished by the people of this era themselves.
That night, the officials of the Ministry of Industry were doing experiments in their dreams. Their heads were filled with various elements, messy and magnificent.
Nian Tu held the list handed over by Lou Ang in his hand, and recalled each person's performance today, analyzing his or her talent and interest in chemistry, and then assigned different tasks and divided the work reasonably.
Tan Konglin stayed beside her, hugged her waist from behind, and felt the soft and slender curve, which made him feel distracted.
His heart was pounding wildly, but the person in his arms remained calm and focused. After a long silence, he sighed with some resentment, "Niannian, you are more suitable to be the emperor than me."
