The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 608 Doing Business

The Wang family was really lively for two days, and Ayu, who had been very nervous before, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She not only took out her own pocket money to have chicken soup cooked and distributed to her neighbors, but also made a special trip to the Temple of the God of Literature to fulfill her vow. With a wave of her hand, she donated 100 taels of incense money, which shocked all the worshippers around her.

Because it has been many years since people have given so much money to the God of Literature, people still prefer to donate to Buddha.

Others who saw Qin Huai being pulled along by A Yu didn't really recognize this newly promoted top scholar.

The main reason is that Qin and Huai are both handsome, but unfortunately they look too young, like children who haven't fully grown up. No one would associate them with the current imperial examination system.

It was the woman selling the brocade pouches who spotted them and greeted Ayu happily, "Little girl, are you here to fulfill a vow? Did someone in your family win?"

"Yes! All I know so far is that my second uncle and my brother Ayou both passed." Ayu pushed Qin Huai forward like she was promoting her own melons, "Our brother Ayou is amazing, he became the top scholar!"

The eldest sister's eyes widened: "The top scholar?! The one who's rumored to be incredibly strong, brimming with inspiration, whose answers are accompanied by a shower of light, whose papers are handed in amidst a chorus of birdsong, and who has mastered the Six Arts of the Gentleman by shooting through the entire shooting range?!"

Qin Huai: ?
Ayu opened her mouth wide and turned her head toward Qin Huai: "Brother Ayou, you never told me any of this."

Seeing Ayu's expression, Qin Huai almost lost his composure and could only explain calmly, "That's not true."

"Wow, young sir, you're truly amazing!" The older woman didn't care about the truth of the matter; she just raised her voice and shouted, "When you came to my stall to buy the brocade pouches before, I felt that you were a dragon among men, destined to excel in the imperial examinations. Now it seems that's really the case. It must be because my brocade pouches had some effect, and with the help of the God of Literature—"

There were some students who had failed the exam, as well as relatives of other students who were going to take the exam next time. Upon hearing this, they immediately surrounded the two of them.

This was even more enthusiastic than when Ayu had generously donated 100 taels of incense money.

"Did you really pass the exam after buying the brocade pouches from this stall?"

After thinking about the logic, Ayu could only nod and say, "Yes." The others glanced around and saw that the person in question had already answered in this way, so what were they waiting for? They immediately rushed to the eldest sister's stall and bought one item after another, emptying the entire stall.

The older sister added, "They didn't just buy one brocade pouch; that little girl bought ten at once. Maybe buying more brocade pouches makes them more effective."

The others hurriedly said, "Big sister, are you coming to set up your stall again tomorrow? I'll pre-order 9, no, 10, no, 20. I'll pay you in advance, but you must order mine first."

Finally, some people surrounded Qin Huai to ask him questions, while others pulled and tugged at the eldest sister, making her stagger.

Ayu looked at this and that, her eyes thoughtful.

When they finally got home, Ayu brought out a stack of papers in front of everyone.

Everyone asked her, "What is this?"

“Let’s write on the brocade pouches,” Ayu said. “We write on these brocade pouches, and Brother Ayou stamps them with his seal. Then these are the brocade pouches stamped by the top scholar, wishing all the students success in the imperial examinations. That eldest sister’s brocade pouches sold for so much without any reason. I’ll sell mine for 50 taels each, and I’ll make 10 in total.”

In this way, the 100 taels she donated will be returned.

Everyone: "..."

Are they really that short of money?
Grandma Wang smiled and said, "Change to better paper, print floral patterns, and make 100 pouches for students, 100 pouches for examinees, and 100 pouches for relatives."

The old servants: "..."

It's confirmed; their new family is really short of money.
