Chapter 243 He is the Son of Destiny
Cao Shuqing's face was full of sincerity.
He thought it through. Since he also liked Meng Yufan and Meng Yufan brought him good luck, he was willing to take her as a concubine in this life, instead of having her always be a maid like in the previous life, with no name and no status!
Meng Yu laughed when she heard this. She really couldn't imagine that there would be such a shameless person in the world.
"Does your rebirth have anything to do with me? You also know that I am living a good life now. My mother is richer than the Yan family. Why should I cooperate with you? Marry me as a concubine? If you had a peanut, you wouldn't be drunk like this!"
Cao Shuqing frowned. Of course he felt unhappy after hearing such harsh words.
But he felt that a real man could bend and stretch, and the current situation was beyond his control. It would be okay for him to lower his head. As long as he could coax Meng Yufan and as long as he achieved fame, he would have the final say in the future.
So, he adjusted his mood and made himself look more sincere: "Yufan, we were not destined to be together in the last life, which has always been a regret in my heart. So at that time I thought that if there is a next life, I must make it up to you. Now that the next life is right in front of me, how can I enjoy wealth and honor alone? Yufan, I know your mother is very rich. But no matter how rich she is, she is just a businessman. Among the officials, farmers, merchants and industrialists, merchants have a low status. Just like your uncle's family, wasn't it the richest in Jiazhou five years ago? But the governor of Haiyang County made a few moves, which made the Luo family's business difficult. Have you watched the Liang family rise to become the richest?"
Meng Yu's eyes darkened.
It seems that Cao Shuqing has put in a lot of effort and even knows a lot about the business world in Jiazhou.
However, what he knew was just the surface.
Now it seems that Jiazhou City is indeed dominated by the Liang family supported by Prince An.
How can a newly rising Liang family compare to the four families of Luo, Yang, Qin and Han that have been rooted for many years?
However, with the support of the government, the Liang family's momentum is very strong, but this is only a temporary phenomenon. The Luo family is becoming more and more low-key, but it does not mean that they are really unable to compete.
After all, when the Liang family was desperately trying to seize the Jiazhou market, the Luo family had already moved the capital to another place.
Cao Shuqing was still trying to persuade him: "But I am different. In my previous life, I was the Minister of Personnel. Do you know how high an official the Minister of Personnel is? It is the highest rank in the court. With just one word, I can support a family, and with just one word, I can destroy a family. If you cooperate with me, you will never suffer any loss!"
"Let's wait until you pass the imperial examination first." Meng Yu turned and left.
Cao Shuqing was anxious: "Yufan, I can marry you after I pass the imperial examination, but can you lend me some money first?"
Meng Yu laughed when he heard this: "No, I wouldn't lend it to you even if I had it!"
Seeing that she was about to walk by, Cao Shuqing reached out to grab her: "Yufan, after all, we are from the same village, you can't be so ungrateful. I have already said that I will not treat you unfairly when I become successful in the future, why are you so unreasonable?"
He actually looked extremely anxious, and Meng Yu laughed when he heard it: "Just because we are from the same village, I have to support you? Your future success is up to you. I have no friendship with you in the past, and I will never have one in the future. Don't try to fool me with these lies, I'm not a three-year-old child!"
"I didn't lie to you, I really didn't lie to you, I really was reborn, Yufan, believe me, in your previous life you really were..."
Meng Yu's eyes became fierce: "Get lost!"
Cao Shuqing looked incredulous. He was shocked. Where was the gentle woman in his previous life who smiled at him tenderly, was dependent and considerate, and obeyed his every word? Even after he drove her away, she still looked at him with tears in her eyes and wanted to say something but couldn't?
Seeing him standing there in a daze, Meng Yu gave him another blow: "Guess what will happen to you if I tell others that you are reborn?"
Cao Shuqing was stunned at first, then his expression changed drastically and he turned around and walked away in shame.
He is a smart man, and this matter is unbelievable. If no one believes it, he will be regarded as a madman.
If someone believes it, he will be regarded as a monster or become a tool in the hands of someone with ulterior motives.
Because he is not able to protect himself yet.
Looking at Cao Shuqing fleeing in panic, Meng Yu rolled his eyes.
Why didn't he attack him?
The best revenge for a proud person who carries the memories of his previous life is to let him be reborn into poverty and destitution, so that wealth and honor are no longer within his reach. Those things that were once within his reach are now out of his reach!
Cao Shuqing didn't go far.
He was in the shadows in the distance, watching Meng Yu leave.
Is Meng Yufan, who is well-dressed, has bright eyes and white teeth, and is a beauty even though she is only eleven or twelve years old, so out of his reach?
No, that's absolutely impossible. Since he can be reborn, he is the son of destiny!
When God wants to give a man a great responsibility, he must first make his mind suffer, his muscles and bones tired, and his body hungry...
So, this was God testing him.
He will definitely be able to wade through this muddy water, pass the imperial examination, and reach a higher level than in his previous life!
Then the first step is to get Meng Yufan!
His sinister, venomous eyes, like those of a poisonous snake, stared at the back of the figure. Only after the figure turned the corner and could no longer be seen did he withdraw his gaze in disappointment.
In fact, Cao Shuqing does have some abilities.
During the first college entrance examination, he wanted to become Mr. Ping's disciple so that he could live with Mr. Ping. He could not only let Mr. Ping teach him, but also make more connections here. After all, the identity of Mr. Ping's disciple was very useful.
Unfortunately, he didn’t even see the person the first time. The second time, he saw the person, but he only saw him from a distance and couldn’t get close to him.
The third time he planned well and met Mr. Ping smoothly, but Mr. Ping only said a few words to him and sent him away.
He did not give up and went for the fourth time, but Mr. Ping did not see him.
What else is there to be confused about? Mr. Ping didn't like him.
He was very dissatisfied and wondered why everyone from Pei Hongmiao to Mr. Ping was so short-sighted.
Are they worthy of being called great scholars? I am obviously very talented and knowledgeable, but they are unwilling to accept me as their disciple.
Unable to become Mr. Ping's disciple, and without the support of the Yan family, Li has now returned to the village in disgrace.
Cao Shuqing, by copying books and selling calligraphy and paintings, managed to stay in Jiazhou City.
Although they lived in the worst slums, wore cloth clothes, and ate one meal a day and had a full meal every other day.
He did not enter the academy because he had no money and could not get in.
He also looked down on those private schools.
With his abilities, those private school teachers were simply unable to teach him.
He read books, copied books, and set up a stall to make a living and prepare for the next college entrance examination.
This is also why he urgently wants to use Meng Yu's financial resources and is willing to reveal the biggest secret, the matter of rebirth.
Cao Shuqing then started a series of bold moves.
