Suiping, Gujia Xifu, Yuan Ruju.

Gu Zhongkang stood in front of Gu Weisheng with an indignant expression, "How can Dad say that?" The fifth brother is also born to his father, and he is the son of our Gu family, how can he be allowed to stay in Fenglin Temple all the time? Now that the fifth brother has been in Fenglin Temple for seven days, why hasn't Dad sent someone to pick him up? ”

"I'll pick him up? Let me pick him up? Gu Weisheng laughed and said softly, "Okay, don't intercede for that son, it's just a sinner, where is it worth your attention to him." He changed the topic and talked about ethnology again, "There is still a month to go before the ethnology exam, are you ready?" ”

Seeing that his father asked about his studies, Gu Zhongkang had to reply respectfully, although he was unwilling: "My son is ready, and I have memorized the "Four Books". ”

Hearing him say this, Gu Weisheng had a smile on his face and was admitted to his studies.

Gu Zhongkang lowered his head and replied seriously, but there was a little regret in his eyes.

Gujia East Mansion, East Courtyard.

Gu Weiyu sat in the study, standing in front of him from Beijing, and Gu Da Butler was holding a package in his hand, which contained charcoal wrapped in rice paper.

The big housekeeper Gu pointed in the direction of Xifu and held the charcoal in front of Gu Weiyu.

Paper doesn't hold fire, but it can hold charcoal. His father was telling him to wrap the charcoal firmly in paper before it became a fire.

Gu Weiyue knew that what his father was talking about Gu Mengping being sent to the family temple, so he bowed his head heavily, "I know, I will deal with the matter of Xifu as soon as possible." After saying this, he looked at the housekeeper Gu with expectant eyes, "Has my father ever said that when will I return to Beijing?" ”

Butler Gu raised his eyes to look at him and whispered a word.

"What do you say? I didn't hear you. Gu Weiyue blocked the pinna with his hand, he has not been able to use his ear since he was a child, and he has to block it with his hand to hear clearly when talking to people.

When he heard his father order him to stay in Suiping with peace of mind and study hard in his hometown, Gu Wei was more shocked.

Did his father really give up on him? Just because of his father-in-law?

He is not an only son, and there is a younger brother Gu Weifeng, who is the prefect of Jianning Mansion in Fujian. In terms of learning, he is on par with Gu Weifeng; In terms of qualifications, there are more Hanlin attendants to talk about this; In terms of expulsion experience, he is not as good as Gu Weifeng. Compared to this younger brother, he has no advantages, and is not even as good as him.

Because Gu Weifeng's wife Liu's father is currently the Tongzhi of the Salt Envoy of the Metropolitan Transport, and when they got married, Liu's father was just a deputy promoter of the Shibo Lifting Division, and in just a few years, he changed from a deputy promoter to a Tongzhi.

The speed of promotion is unexpected.

On the other hand, his father-in-law, Master Dong......

Gu Weiyue fell into distress.

On the second day, Gu Mengping reluctantly said goodbye to the old monk and followed Yijing down the mountain.

The carriage of the Gu family was waiting at the foot of the mountain early......

To Gu Mengping's surprise, the carriage was driven by Gu Fuhou, the housekeeper of the Eastern Mansion.

When I returned to the mansion, I first went to see the old patriarch of the big clan, and sat in the old patriarch's house for half an hour, and then went to ask the Yang family, the ancestor of the West Mansion.

As before, the old ancestor Yang avoided it.

Gu Mengping was not annoyed, and silently turned back to Yuan Ruju.

I never thought that Gu Weisheng would go to Fan's house as a guest, only the Xie family was left at home, and the Xie family waited for the ancestor in the upper room of the West Mansion.

Gu Mengping didn't even see a ghost, and returned to the Ink Flower Courtyard alone.

Back in Mohuayuan, the courtyard was empty, and even the courtyard door was unlocked.

Gu Mengping even shouted a few times, but no one answered, so he had to smile bitterly.

I didn't think about it, I just sat in the bedroom for a while, and I was caught by Gu Shaohua and Gu Xingyun, who came to hear the news. As soon as the two of them got out of class, they heard the news that Gu Mengping had returned home, and they came immediately.

Seeing his friends coming, Gu Mengping was really happy.

The three brothers were chatting happily, Gu Zhongkang also came to the Mohua Courtyard, he looked at Gu Mengping's eyes with worry, and said, "Fifth brother, there is a big exam for clan studies soon, do you know?" You haven't been to school, and you don't know anything, what if the clan refuses to accept you? ”

Gu Shaohua and Gu Xingyun glanced at each other.

Gu Mengping has been away from home for twelve years, and he has never attended a clan school, nor has he received any orthodox education, but if you compare his knowledge with Gu Shaohua and Gu Xingyun, he will not be bad. He writes well, can casually say many allusions, and can express different views on world and state affairs. If Gu Shaohua didn't understand something before, he would accumulate it and wait until he went up the mountain to ask Gu Mengping, and he would often get a good harvest. The masters in the clan studies all thought that Gu Shaohua was extremely smart, but who knew that these answers were all consulted by people?

Needless to say, Gu Xingyun's current calligraphy is still thanks to Gu Mengping, which has made great progress.

Hearing Gu Zhongkang say this, the brothers almost laughed.

"What about Rokuro's opinion?" Gu Mengping glared at the two brothers.

Gu Zhongkang hesitated, he had asked his father a few days ago, wanting Gu Mengping to enroll in school immediately. But after seeing Gu Mengping's monk's robe, he hesitated. In the clan study, not only the children of the Gu family, but also the children of several families in the county are attached to the school. If they found out that Gu Mengping knew little about words, would they bully him?

The fifth brother is already bitter enough, he is not loved by his father at home, and he can't let the fifth brother be bullied by others in the family study.

He looked at Gu Mengping, with a look of determination in his eyes, "Fifth brother, from tomorrow, how about I come over to help you enlighten?" ”

With a 'poof', Gu Xingyun squirted out the tea he had just drunk, and then coughed heavily.

Gu Shaohua's hand holding the cup trembled slightly, and his face was still calm, but the corners of his mouth that were curved high exposed his heart, and he said in a dumb voice: "Meng Ping, Liulang said it very well, otherwise, will you follow him to read Mengshu tomorrow?" There was a hint of ridicule in his eyes.

But Gu Mengping's eyes were full of softness when he looked at Gu Zhongkang, could this kid understand what he was saying? He was using that immature behavior to resist Gu Weisheng.

Gu Mengping crossed the two brothers of the Great Sect, and said softly: "Liulang, I have already read a few Mengshu books......" Hearing this, a layer of shyness and embarrassment appeared on Gu Zhongkang's face.

This shy child? Gu Mengping smiled thinly.

"However, there are some things I don't know about in the Book of Shang, can you please guide me in my spare time?" Sometimes, a white lie is not a lie, but can work well.

Sure enough, Gu Mengping nodded heavily after hearing his words, "Fifth brother, don't worry, I will do my best to guide." Speaking of this, he was busy and changed his words, "It's not about pointing, it's about learning from each other." ”

Gu Xingyun grinned, and when he was about to speak, he was glanced at by Gu Mengping, and pressed the unspoken words under the tip of his tongue.

Gu Mengping said with a smile: "That's right, our brothers learn and progress together." As he spoke, he put his hand on Gu Shaohua's arm casually, and knocked it a few times as if unintentionally.

Gu Shaohua glanced at Gu Mengping deeply.

After returning to Dazong, after listening to his son talk about today's events, Gu Weide pondered for a long time and asserted: "If this son is an official, the Gu family will be prosperous." ”

Saying this, Gu Weide suddenly felt sad.

He has no way out, can he let his son be admitted to the Jinshi like him in order to inherit the patriarchal position? But if the son does not inherit the patriarchal position, what will be left of the great sect in the future? In terms of power, it is not as good as the east and west, if there is no longer this position, will you still be able to make a voice in the clan in the future?

After his son left, he talked to his wife Feng about it.

The Feng clan glanced at him and said with a smile: "If according to what you said, Meng Ping can prosper the Gu clan, what are you worried about?" Even if Meng Ping can't prosper the Gu family, you have Shaohua and Xingyun, what are you worried about? ”

Gu Weide was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.

If Shaohua can be a jinshi, he will persuade Xingyun to be the patriarch. If Xingyun can be successful, he will persuade Shaohua.

In short, the two great-grandsons of the great sect must have a good future.

Yesterday, on the fourth day of the white affair, I went to deliver dumplings and some soup, but I came back tired and half dead, and I slept at eight o'clock at night and didn't wake up until nine o'clock in the morning. I ate and slept at noon, and I didn't wake up until now......

I suddenly remembered that today's chapter was not transmitted, so I'm sorry!

It was around eight o'clock in the evening.
