Mo Qingling stood up, crossed his arms, and said to Shi Qingluo, "In that case, thank you very much!"

Since the first time he met Shi Qingluo, he had already felt that she did not look like a village woman. Now that he looked at her, she was indeed not simple.

He could not help but ask, "Did your master teach you all this?"

There were not many people in the county who did not know that Scholar Xiao's wife was the disciple of an old immortal.

Mo Qingling had also heard a lot of it and didn't think much about it initially.

How would an old immortal appear in this world?

But now, along with the things that Shi Qingluo had been tinkering with, not to mention women, even many men didn't have the knowledge, he couldn't help but waver.

Of course, he also didn't believe that there was any immortal, but he believed that that old Taoist might really be an exceptionally knowledgeable person in this world.

Otherwise, how could he have nurtured such an insightful and powerful woman.

Shi Qingluo nodded and smiled. "That's right. It's all because of the master's teachings."


Master, tomorrow, I'll go and offer you a few more incense sticks. As an elderly, please bear with it.


After all, she did not want to be treated as a witch and burned to death.

Mo Qingling asked curiously, "Did he teach you all these directly?"

Shi Qingluo replied, "Not all of them. My master is busy refining pills and cultivating most of the time.

"But he will give us many different kinds of books for us to learn.

"For example, making tofu, mosquito incense, and the sesame paste that I mentioned just now, I learnt them from the books.

"Of course, my master will also find time to teach us so that we can learn more and do more. So that we can broaden our horizons."

She made up a story that sounded very logical.

Anyway, the priest and the other Taoist children were gone, so no one knew whether what she said was true or not.

Obviously, everyone in the crowd, except for Xiao Hanzheng, believed her.

Mo Qingling could not help but ask, "Are those books still around?"

If those books were still around, they would definitely be able to do a lot of things to make Daliang even richer and stronger.

Shi Qingluo shook her head regretfully. "They're not here anymore. They were all placed in the main hall at that time, and they were all burned."

Mo Qingling was disappointed, but she did not show it on her face. "Then have you finished reading them all?"

Shi Qingluo liked it when he asked such questions. "I have read most of them."

In the future, with Mo Qingling, the Empress' nephew, as her witness, she would definitely be able to use her identity as the old immortal's disciple. When she went to the capital, she had him to "help" her in her studies.

In the future, probably not many would stare at her and ask about this.

Mo Qingling asked again, "Other than what you've done before, is there anything else? For example, other things that are beneficial to the residents' livelihood?"
