Chapter 703: I Can't Ask for It
Tang Xiannan was stunned for a moment, but just smiled in a low voice.
Gu Zizhong understood Sister Tang's thoughts, she was going to leave tomorrow, so if there was anything at home today, Sister Tang would definitely have to talk about it.
It's best that Gu Zizhong can help Tang Xiannan do all the things at home.
Gu Zizhong waited for Sister Tang to speak.
Tang Xiannan had something in his heart, so he naturally lost his confidence.
Looking up at County Lord Gu, Tang Xiannan saw County Lord Gu staring at her closely.
Tang Xiannan hurriedly lowered his head again.
Gu Zizhong didn't persuade her, like this situation, Tang Xiannan had to tell the matter herself.
Tang Xiannan plucked up his courage, thought for a while, and said, "Sister Gu, I heard that there is a academy in Jinling that specializes in recruiting tribute students. β
Gu Zizhong seemed to have heard of it.
It's just that she wasn't very familiar with that academy.
Because my brother was originally a scholar, but because he was the son of the world, he couldn't participate in the imperial examination.
In this way, Gu Zizhong still has a grudge against that academy.
Gu Zizhong only replied vaguely and didn't say much.
Tang Xiannan continued to ask: "I heard that Gu Shizi is a scholar, so he is very familiar with that academy, right?"
Gu Zizhong looked listless, and didn't want to tell her about the academy: "My brother is just studying at home, and he hasn't been to the academy." Mr. Private School, my family has invited a lot of them. Now my brother has more goods in his stomach than his husband's. β
As soon as he mentioned this, Gu Zizhong wanted to laugh.
What Tang Xiannan wanted to say, but was suppressed by Lord Gu's words.
Gu Zizhong clasped his ears and eyes, and said, "Okay, I know what Sister Tang means." If you have anything, just say it. I can help you, and I will help you. β
Tang Xiannan's brows suddenly opened, she stretched out her hands to support the back of the chair, supported her chin, and stared at Lord Gu: "My aunt's boy, of course, is older than me, he took the imperial examination this year, and his results are not bad." I heard that there is a academy in Jinling, and I want to ask Sister Gu to help me and let my brother go to the academy to study. If my brother can participate in the palace examination next year, my brother and I will definitely come to the door to thank you. β
Gu Zizhong was silent and did not speak.
Tang Xiannan continued: "In these days, being a showman is too ordinary, and there is no use except teaching. My brother has been studying for many years, and he is unwilling to be a poor talent. He wanted to be a tribute student and serve the court well. In the future, my brother will be a little good in the palace exam, and if he comes out, he will definitely be under the door of the Zhu family in Jinling. I can't see that there is one less protΓ©gΓ© of the Zhu family in Jinling, but one more person needs more effort. β
Gu Zizhong was laughed at by her words, and said, "One more protΓ©gΓ© in my family is not too much, and one less is not too little." β
Tang Xiannan lowered his head and blushed.
She wanted to beg the county lord so earnestly that she didn't even know what she was saying.
Gu Zizhong said this deliberately. When Tang Xiannan stopped talking, Gu Zizhong said, "Alas, I'm joking with you." Sister Tang, you beg me for help, how can I not help? Don't worry, I'll tell my father-in-law about this when I go home. You can rest assured at the academy. But can your brother go to the temple and try it, so confident?"
Tang Xiannan dared to puff up his chest and said, "Have confidence." β
With such confidence, how could Gu Zizhong not believe it?
She's still muttering to herself, but she'll still help.
She just didn't believe it.
My brother has been studying for more than ten years, but he has never entered the academy.
Gu Zizhong agreed, but in this kind of scene, the atmosphere is still a little worse.
Tang Xiannan took the initiative to move the chair, sat down, and leaned against Lord Gu.
She took the initiative to pick up the teacup and handed it to Lord Gu.
Gu Zizhong took the teacup, took a sip, and was very satisfied: "Well, this teahouse is not bad, the people here are quite real, and the tea given is genuine." β
Is that still fake?
Tang Xiannan was quite proud: "The place I brought the county lord here is definitely not wrong." β
Gu Zizhong was snickering, Tang Xiannan was going to lower her voice in order to let her do such a thing.
The relationship between the two sisters has been estranged a lot all of a sudden, can they only do things by accompanying the smiling face?
Gu Zizhong gave Tang Xiannan a truthful word: "There is absolutely no problem with this tribute to the matter. Even if my brother's grades are not enough, I will help him and let him get a tribute. We can't go wrong with our family. β
Tang Xiannan has a bottom in her heart, and she is very proud, it seems that Lord Gu is still good to her.
Gu Zi thought about it again and shook his head: "But if my brother's grades are really good, I don't need to go to Jinling to study, I go directly to the capital and study in the country." If you come out in the future, you will inevitably enter the imperial court and eat royal food. We Jinling people still have to walk around with our brother a lot. β
What she said made Tang Xiannan's heart itch.
However, Tang Xiannan is self-aware, if her brother is really sure, why did she come to ask the county lord Gu for?
Tang Xiannan still expressed his position: "Cousin, he said that since we rely on the development of the Jinling Zhu family and the Gu family, we will definitely repay the kindness of the Jinling Zhu and Gu families in the future." In the future, no matter what position my cousin is in the court, I must listen to the words of the Zhu family and the Gu family in Jinling. β
Gu Zizhong likes to hear this.
Tang Xiannan said: "My cousin said that as long as he can enter the academy or get a tribute, he will be able to enter the palace with confidence, and it is a bit difficult to be the champion, but he may be able to make a list or explore flowers in the future." β
Gu Zizhong heard her say this, and she also felt quite hopeful.
Tang Xiannan's ability to set off the atmosphere is really strong enough.
Gu Zizhong said: "I can help with this favor, I don't have to let my family take care of it." Don't let up, cousin, you let him wait at home for my good news. β
Tang Xiannan smiled and helped Lord Gu pinch his shoulders.
Gu Zizhong enjoyed it, listening to the drama outside, enjoying Tang Xiannan's service, gradually squinting his eyes, and taking a nap for a while.
When the play was finished and the scene was over, Gu Zizhong woke up leisurely.
Because there's no movement outside.
Tang Xiannan helped Gu Zi back home.
Gu Zi returned to the house, but he felt extraordinarily energetic.
Aunt Cui had been waiting for Qing'er beside the bed, and when she saw Lord Gu coming back, she dared to get up and go over to greet her.
Gu Zizhong stared at Qing'er, blushed, and said, "It's really cold outside." When we leave tomorrow, please ask Aunt Cui to help prepare some scarves and hats, I don't want Qing'er to be cold. β
Aunt Cui answered and went out.
Gu Zizhong lay down on the bed, but he couldn't sleep.
Having just woken up from his sleep, Gu Zizhong really didn't feel comfortable.
She sat up, went to the table and took the copy of "The Legend of Xiaolin Guangji" and read it.
The more I read, the more I want to laugh.
