Chapter 226: 158.1

Xiao Liulang: She has learned from Grandaunt’s bad examples!

This episode ended with Gu Jiao planting three kisses on Little Jing Kong's head.

Little Jing Kong forgot to be angry at his bad brother-in-law at once, covering the kisses on his head with his little hands and running back to the room. He then found a scarf to wrap his head with and waited for the kisses to sprout!

After the three people completely recovered from chickenpox, they began to attend Qinghe Academy and Imperial Academy respectively again. Xiao Liulang and Gu Jiao had been requesting leave of absence for the three of them until now, and now they, too, could finally return to their normal daily routine.

The elderly woman had also moved back.

Old Chief was moved to tears.

She finally moved away!

He would no longer be chased and robbed by someone with a knife every day!

Old Chief was an honest and upright official. Having been an official for decades, he had never pocketed any funds, so he really hadn't saved much money. But his entire fortune was almost robbed by that demon empress.

Where could he complain to?

Xiao Liulang had also been on leave for many days, missing a lot of homework and class activities. He wasn’t worried about the homework, but he still needed to make up for all the class activities. Besides, next spring, he also had to take the imperial exam as a tribute student, so his study schedule would be even more intense.

Feng Lin and Lin Chengye were also going to attend next year's metropolitan exam, and they were both nervous.

In order for Xiao Liulang to spend more time studying, Gu Jiao said that she would pick up Little Jing Kong from today on.

Several children in Little Jing Kong's class had also been infected with chickenpox. After asking around, it was discovered that the first one to show symptoms was the transfer student, namely Qin Chuyu.

Little Jing Kong must have been infected by him too, and then it was transmitted to his two big brothers in the family.

However, Qin Chuyu didn't recover as fast as Little Jing Kong, and he was still absent from school.

And since a lot of children were absent from class, school ended early.

In the past, Little Jing Kong used to do his homework in the classroom after classes in the elementary division ended, but now he would go to the medical hall to do his homework.

Only when classes in Qinghe Academy were almost over would Gu Jiao take him home.

One day, when Little Jing Kong was doing his homework in the medical hall, Second Owner brought back a box of sheepmilk cake from somewhere. Little Jing Kong ate it and exclaimed how delicious it was.

Gu Jiao then learned that he was fine with dairy products.

Gu Jiao asked Second Owner to buy some fresh sheep milk, which she boiled and gave to Little Jing Kong to drink.

But it turned out she bought too much at once. After making a drink for Little Jing Kong, there was still half a pot left, but neither Gu Yan nor Gu Xiaoshun was used to drinking this. It would be a waste to just dump it.

Gu Jiao pondered for a while. Then, adding some tea and sugar into it, she boiled out a special drink consisting of milk and tea.

As the young misses from the women’s academy passed by the medical hall, they were attracted by the special fragrance and went in to ask what it was.

Gu Jiao thought for a moment before saying, "Milk tea."

Gu Jiao poured a few cups of it for them to taste.

Apart from the original bitter tea they usually brewed, young ladies from the capital only drank butter tea, that kind of salty one which was also delicious. However, it was nothing compared with this sweet milk tea.

Heavens, what kind of heavenly flavor was this? It was too delicious. Pwah!

"Is there any more? Is there any more?" One of the young misses asked.

Gu Jiao shook her head and said, "There’s no more for today. Come over tomorrow if you want to drink it again and I'll make some more of it."

The next day, the medical hall was packed.

Second Owner, who came down from the side room upstairs, was a little bewildered. Did they have so many patients today? They seemed to be all young misses from the women’s academy. What happened in the women’s academy?

The truth was, they didn't come here to see a physician, but rather to line up for the milk tea.

Gu Jiao didn’t sell the milk tea cheaply, even so, it was still in short supply.

The popularity of the milk tea greatly dumbfounded Second Owner.

He expressed that after running a medical hall for so many years, he had never thought he would suddenly earn money through sideline business.

However, the recipe for milk tea wasn’t complicated at all. One would know how to make it after drinking it several times.

Soon the nearby shops began to follow suit, and some of the cooks in the young misses’ residences did the same. Pretty soon, the business in the medical hall went cold and cheerless.

On this day, Little Jing Kong came to the medical hall again to do his homework.

Seeing Second Owner sighing, he put down his pen and asked him, "Why are you sighing?"

"Business is not good." Second Owner had just tasted the sweetness of selling milk tea, with low cost and high profit. At most, he only had to prepare a heating room for the young misses and burn more pots of charcoal.

It hadn't been a few days, but their business had more or less been robbed.

The main reason was that other people sell it at a low price, but theirs couldn’t be lowered down because Gu Jiao was using high-quality tea.

Second Owner lamented, "It really worries me ah!"

Little Jing Kong decided to do field research at once.

"JiaoJiao, I want to have a taste too!"

It wasn’t ideal for children to drink tea, so Gu Jiao only let him take a sip.

Delicious!

Little Jing Kong concluded that there was nothing wrong with the recipe of JiaoJiao whatsoever!

Little Jing Kong, with a serious face, went to the heating room with his tiny hands behind his back. He was going to inquire why the other big sisters were no longer coming.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw a big sister from the women’s academy slumped on the table.

"What's the matter with you? Do you have a stomachache?" Little Jing Kong asked her.

The girl complained, "It's not stomachache, it's headache!"

The teacher’s homework was too difficult. It was simply impossible for her!

Little Jing Kong climbed onto the chair and took a look at the big sister's homework, like a child looking at the homework given to him by his parents.

Oh, JiaoJiao could do this!

Little Jing Kong then took the paper to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao was currently making pills.

Little Jing Kong held up the paper in his hand and said, "JiaoJiao! I can't answer these questions. Help me answer them, will you? I'll study them after you’re done!"

"Alright." Gu Jiao took the paper from Little Jing Kong.

It was all arithmetic problems.

The elementary division’s elite class also tackled many arithmetic problems, and the difficulty wasn’t low at all.

Therefore, Gu Jiao didn’t suspect him at all. She took a new sheet of white paper and wrote down the answers using the charcoal pen she made for Little Jing Kong.

Little Jing Kong never copied the answers. He would always study them carefully by himself first, then cover the answer and do them again himself. He would run through it several times until he fully understood how to answer them correctly.

Because he had a rather good reputation, Gu Jiao never kept a watchful eye on him.

Little Jing Kong went back to the heating room with both the question paper and the answer paper. He said, "Here, the answer!"

That girl didn’t believe that a child could get the answer to these problems. He must have just written down random answers.

But she didn’t know how to do it herself either, so even if it was just a random answer, she might as well…

The little girl curled her lips and copied the answer accordingly, resigning to her fate.

The homework was handed in the next day, and there were only three people who got all answers correct. One was Gu Jinyu, the other was Zhuang Yuexi, and the other… was the girl!

The girl, surnamed Yu, also came in through the back door. She took turns competing with Zhuang Mengdie for the bottom of the class, and she had never received so much praise from the teacher before this!

Of course, she wasn’t the kind of person who hoarded all the food for herself. She immediately told her classmates what the people in the medical hall next door were capable of.

Thus, in the afternoon, the medical hall, which had been deserted for several days, was full with people once again!

The clever little guy named Jing Kong walked out of the medical hall with great pride, looking at all those people who tried to rob the milk tea business from them!

Hoho, you could imitate JiaoJiao's recipe, but you couldn’t imitate JiaoJiao's IQ!
