Gu Defa glanced at his elder brother and retracted his gaze.

Brother is so stupid, haven't you seen it yet? Mr. Ouyang, the more you don't learn, the more he wants you to learn, and singing against the old man is to have fun with the old man.

Sure enough, Mr. Ouyang smiled: "If you can't pass the test for a lifetime, then take the test for a lifetime." ”

Gu Dewang wanted to hit the wall when he heard it, this old man was too difficult.

After a while, he glanced at Mr. Ouyang's old face, and said with gritted teeth: "You are so old, and you still have to stay with me for a lifetime, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

Mr. Ouyang was not to be outdone: "The old man's health is good, the people of the Ouyang family have always lived a long life, and it is not a problem to live to be eighty years old, you just wait." ”

So if you kid wants to kill the old man, don't learn, dream about it!

After hearing this, Gu Dewang stretched out his hand to count Mr. Ouyang's age, and was shocked to break his voice: "There are still more than twenty years!" ”

Twenty years later, he is almost forty, and if his life is as short as that of Gan Mingzi and his father in the town, he can die for several years.

He wanted to kill Old Man Ouyang, but who is boiling to death now?

Gu Dewang was desperate again, and went back to the table and pretended to be dead.

Brother Cheng watched the excitement for a while, and finally understood why Gu Dewang was like this, and said to him: "Brother Dewang, you should die, instead of fighting with Grandpa Ouyang, it is better to study hard, maybe you can be admitted to fame in a few years." Look at Brother Dexing, many people used to say that he couldn't get famous, but now he is not admitted to Tongsheng, and it is very likely that he will be admitted to Xiucai. ”

Gu Dewang covered his ears and pretended not to hear.

Brother Cheng said again: "Besides, there is no conflict between studying and making money, Brother Dewang can earn money while studying." ”

Then tell Gu Dewang about Lu Bai writing a book to make money.

When Gu Dewang heard this, he was so shocked that he almost jumped up: "What, a book can earn dozens of taels of silver?" ”

Cheng Ge'er nodded: "Well, if the story is good, there can be thirty taels." Although Brother Dewang can't write a book, Brother Dewang can do other business. ”

Living people can still suffocate urine, and in another way, the two major things can be done together.

After hearing this, Gu Dewang finally became happy, and said to Mr. Ouyang: "Old man, don't fight with you, wait, when I make a lot of money, I will send you a cart of ham, so that you can eat enough!" ”

Mr. Ouyang sneered: "You can continue to be strong, the old man just thought of a way to clean you up." ”

When Gu Dewang heard this, he was very happy, it was so dangerous, fortunately he woke up quickly, otherwise he would definitely be killed by the old man.

He immediately took out his textbook, sat up straight, and began to pretend to work.

Mr. Ouyang glanced at him and said, "I owe five days of homework, pay it tomorrow, dare not pay it, double the homework, tell your mother again, let her beat you twice, and then deduct your meat and vegetables, so that you don't have meat for a month." ”

"You must pay it, don't tell my mother!" Gu Dewang was hungry when he fled the famine, and he liked to eat meat the most, if he didn't eat meat for a month, he would go crazy.

Mr. Ouyang snorted coldly and ignored Gu Dewang, but today's homework was Gu Dewang's most hated copying, and what he wanted to copy was the Zhou Dynasty's Confucian thief. Not only is it long, but it is also difficult to write, and it has to be copied ten times, plus the homework owed, it can make him ruined.

Gu Dewang wanted to die, but in order to eat meat, he had to work hard, and he didn't dare to follow him to the study to see Gu Jin'an and them.

Seeing that he was honest, Mr. Ouyang went to the study with satisfaction and saw Gu Jinan and them.

"Thank you, Mr. Ouyang, and thank you Mr. Ouyang for your guidance." When Gu Jin'an and the five of them saw Mr. Ouyang, they immediately knelt down for him and thanked him.

Although Mr. Ouyang is a Confucian, he is not a little pedantic, and when he instructs Gu Jin'an and them, he is all pointing to places where he may take the exam, so Gu Dexing can be admitted to Tongsheng.

Mr. Ouyang said: "It's just to give you a few words, the ham has already given this credit, hurry up." ”

Mr. Ouyang didn't ask Gu Jinan about their affairs about the government exam, they had finished the exam, what else was there to ask, but asked about what they had seen and heard in Fucheng: "I heard Brother Cheng say that you have met some interesting students and encountered a lot of interesting things, tell the old man." This is always stuffy in Qingfu Town, and the old man hasn't heard anything new for a long time. ”

In fact, otherwise, the people of Qingfu Town are so gossipy, and every few days there will be people from ten miles and eight towns to come to the town to catch the market, one by one, they can speak well, comparable to the storyteller in Jiangnan, Mr. Ouyang can hear fresh things every day.

Sometimes he would wear coarse linen clothes and carry a basket to buy agricultural goods, and listen to people's opinions.

Gu Dewang was very disgusted with his hobby, and said that he had never seen such a gossipy old man as him.

Then he gave him homework.

How is he gossiping? Obviously, he is understanding the local customs, so don't talk nonsense if you don't know.

Gu Jin'an saw that Mr. Ouyang was interested, so he told him what he had seen in Fucheng.

Mr. Ouyang listened to it with relish, laughed out loud several times, and sometimes sighed a few words.

However, he saw that Shang Xiucai seemed to have something to say, and after listening to what he had seen and heard for half an hour, he said to Gu Jin'an: "Go and take out the slices of ham, take the mixed wine to the ice in the well, and then go to the kitchen to help get a few dishes, the old man is hungry, I want to eat early today." ”

He doesn't have the rules of a gentleman's cooking, but thinks that men should learn to cook, otherwise if you are stuck on the road in the future, you won't even be able to make a fire and boil hot water.

"Yes." Gu Jinan and the others also saw that Shang Xiucai had something to say to Mr. Ouyang, so they didn't stay long, and left very obediently.

After they left, Mr. Ouyang said, "Say, what's the matter?" ”

Shang Xiucai did not hesitate, and immediately said: "The junior wants to ask Mr. for one thing, and I hope that Mr. will give it." ”

Mr. Ouyang: "Don't come to this set, let's talk about it first, and the old man will think about whether he can agree." ”

Shang Xiucai listened, told the matter of the old Gu family, and said: "Although it is the old Gu family who is wrong, but Brother An is the younger generation, even if it is right, the reputation will be damaged." When he goes to the examination institute, someone will definitely use this to attack him. The younger generation wants to ask Mr. to write a poem to help Brother An. ”

Mr. Ouyang is a famous Confucian of Great Chu, and his brother Ouyang Hong is even more powerful, most of the literati respect their brothers, if Mr. Ouyang can write a poem to help Gu Jinan and correct his name, those who want to attack him with unfilial piety must not dare to act rashly.

Mr. Ouyang did not agree immediately, but said: "The time has not come, wait until the time comes." ”

Shang Xiucai said a little anxiously: "Sir, the junior thinks that this matter should be sooner rather than later." You don't know how many people in Fucheng have attacked Brother An, if you don't help him, his reputation will be even worse. ”

"The people of Fucheng calculated Brother An'er's matter, wasn't it solved by the Gu family, what are you anxious about?" Mr. Ouyang said: "You can't be in a hurry about this, it's useless to be anxious, let's do it first." ”
