Chapter 956 - Very good at making money, Yao is rich
Old man Xu was very relieved to see that his grandson had really changed. His family is not a wealthy family, nor is it a noble family, and he has not yet entered the scholar family, so his descendants cannot be rampant.
Gu Dashan was very guilty, looked at Gu Jin'an and said, "Brother An, ...... right"
"Dad, don't say much, it's okay." Gu Jin'an interrupted Gu Dashan's words, not wanting him to apologize to himself.
But Gu Dashan is still very guilty, no matter how good they do, no matter how bad Old Man Gu is, but Old Man Gu has a name, they will inevitably be talked about.
Gu Jinan didn't want to see Gu Dashan feel guilty, so he smiled again: "Dad, he was fooled, he didn't hear me clearly." What I'm saying is that only if he becomes the head of the government can he put any conditions on me, but I've read his article...... The rhetoric is flowery but lacks pragmatism. ”
There are even some strategies written like Arabian Nights, which are too different from actual operation, and the fact that the ancient prefect can be excited about turtledove leaf tofu and konjac tofu is enough to prove that it is a pragmatic one, and he is not very optimistic about flashy articles, so even if Lu Bai can be admitted, he will not become the head of the government.
After hearing this, Gu Dashan was finally relieved, and Cheng Ge'er said happily: "It's still the eldest brother who is smart, that mouse is stupid, and he didn't even listen to the bet clearly." ”
Gu Jinan taught Brother Cheng: "Don't give people nicknames." ”
Brother Cheng snorted and muttered, "Who let him scold the eldest brother for no reason." ”
Gu Jin'an heard it, but he didn't discipline him again, but pressed his head, turned him around, let go of his hand, and said to Yao Youqian: "Thank you Brother Yao for speaking up." ”
Brother Cheng also said obediently: "Thank you Brother Yao for helping us speak." ”
Yao Youqian laughed and said, "It's nothing, it's just a trivial matter." ”
asked Gu Jinan again: "Brother Gu, you just said that Lu Bai's article is flashy, so will he fail the exam?" ”
Gu Jinan shook his head: "I can't say that I can't pass the exam, I have also read the articles of talented people in various counties, including Brother Yao and Lu Bai, he is a little talented, otherwise he would not become the head of the county in Yujiang County." ”
That's right, Lu Bai is the county head of Yujiang County, and it is because of this that Lu Bai will pay attention to the situation of the head of other counties, and he dares to scold Gu Jinan openly and arrogantly.
However, Lu Bai was able to be admitted to the head of the county, thanks to the county magistrate of Yujiang County, who loves gorgeous poetry, but the ancient prefect doesn't love it, compared to gorgeous poetry, the ancient prefect loves merit more, he needs political achievements, and pragmatism can bring political achievements.
Yao Youqian listened to it and breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, although Lu Bai is not good, but his father and grandparents are all good people, and they have been waiting for him to go to high school all his life, if he fails, it is not him who suffers, but his family." ”
Lu Bai's family is not rich, there are brothers and sisters in the family, a large family gets up early and works in the dark, saving money for him to study, this time in order to let him come to Fucheng to take the exam, the family also borrowed debts, if he doesn't win, he will really die of hardship.
After listening to this, Gu Jinan wanted to make friends with Yao Youqian even more, this is a free and easy person who is rough and detailed, and he has also read his articles, he is a pragmatic person, and the articles he writes are also very bold, but the words are relatively rough and there is nothing gorgeous to speak of, so he only got the fourth place in the county test.
"Which inn does Brother Yao live in? Why don't I give you a ride? Gu Jin'an saw that no one came to pick up Yao Youqian, thinking that it was getting dark now, and thinking that there was a mule cart at home that could send him.
Yao Youqian said with a smile: "I don't live in the inn, the guest house is too expensive, after coming to Fucheng, I found a job to help the Liu family in the north of the city pour night incense, although there is no salary, but it is food and accommodation, his family has a son-in-law who is a stall, make some food, the food is not bad." ”
Xu Zhaoming was stunned when he heard it, still, can he be like this?!
He thought that as a candidate who had passed the county exam, he would rent a yard to live in even if he didn't live in the inn, but he didn't expect Yao Youqian to work part-time, and the work he did was still fragrant.
When Gu Jinan heard this, he admired it even more, and said again: "Brother Yao is a good person, this method is very good, and it can save a lot of money for the family." ”
Yao Youqian nodded with a smile in agreement: "Brother Gu is right, I also think that I think this method is very good, that is, the north of the city is a little far away, I originally wanted to find the Niu family in the city, the Niu family is responsible for pouring night incense from the rich families in the city, and they can get rewards every day, if they can work with his family, not to mention food and housing, they can also get wages, but the Niu family also pours the night fragrance of the yamen, I thought that I had to avoid suspicion in the exam, so I didn't go to the Niu family to work." ”
Gu Jin'an: "Brother Yao is right, he should really avoid suspicion." ”
Xu Zhaoming was about to go crazy, looking at them as if he was a ghost, he really couldn't stand it, and said, "Brother Gu, Brother Yao, it's getting dark, let's go home first." ”
Can you stop talking about pouring night incense! He's about to throw up, okay?
Yao Youqian said with a smile: "Haha, Brother Xu is right, it's not early, I'll leave first, see you when the list is released." ”
Saying that, he arched his hand towards Gu Jin'an and them, and after saluting Gu Dashan and them, he walked away, walked a few meters, squeezed out the crowd, and began to run wildly again, it is really not close to the north of the city.
Cheng Ge'er laughed: "This Brother Yao is so interesting, remember to take me with you when the eldest brother goes to see him." ”
With the temper of the eldest brother, such an upright and interesting person will definitely make friends.
Gu Jinan nodded: "Well, I'll take you with me when I pick up people on the day of the release." ”
He said to Gu Dashan again: "Dad, Master, let's go back." ”
"Huh." Gu Dashan nodded, and the group went home in a mule cart.
The family had already prepared a meal and was waiting, and when they saw them coming back, they didn't ask much, only let them be grateful for bathing and eating.
After eating, I asked them how they did on the exam.
Gu Jin'an, Gu Dexing, and Qi Kangming all said that they did well in the exam, but only Gu Qingtian said to Gu Qingliang: "It is not good to estimate, and the questions in the government exam are much more difficult than those in the county exam." ”
Gu Damu's family is now only the old Yan family here, and after hearing this, he smiled and said: "It's okay, your father originally just wanted you to practice, and he didn't even expect you to pass the county exam, but now he has come to the palace to take the exam, which is worthy of his ancestors." ”
Gu Qingliang listened to Gu Qingtian and smiled: "It's good that grandma doesn't blame us." ”
After the big guy said for a few quarters of an hour, he asked Gu Jinan and them to rest, the examination shed was small, short and damp, even if they looked in good spirits, they must not be comfortable at home.
Gu Jinan and the others nested in the examination shed for three days and three nights, and they were really tired, so they went back to their rooms to sleep.
Gu Jinli heard Brother Cheng talk about Lu Bai, and after returning to the house, he instructed Erqing: "Tell Daqing them, let them check this Lu Bai, there must be some people in the city who want to use him to deal with the eldest brother, keep an eye on him, and see who is looking for him during this time." Go to the storyteller again and let them continue to talk about the old Gu family. ”
Gu Jinli is really annoyed by the ancient filial piety, obviously the old Gu family is wrong, but just because Old Man Gu is Gu Dashan's father and their grandfather, her eldest brother will be attacked.
And that Lu Bai, if you like Old Man Gu so much, let him recognize Old Man Gu as his grandfather!
