Lin Wanzhi and Gu Haoran were complaining about Gu Jingnian's cold words to Gu Yanran today, the purpose was to be able to dispel the idea of moving out of the mansion to Gu Yanran.

But Gu Yanran has made up her mind, and no one can be persuaded to do so.

"Mother, brother." Gu Yanran smiled at Lin Wanzhi and Gu Haoran one after another. "Actually, I was planning to move out of the Protectorate Mansion for a long time, but I just didn't tell you.

Today, Daddy, he deliberately targeted me...... It just so happened to give me a reason to bring it up. ”

"Don't move out." Lin Wanzhi's tone hardened, but she still didn't agree with Gu Yanran to move out like this. "Yan'er.

You are the concubine of the Protector's Mansion, such a person moved out to live, did you think about what people outside would say about you? ”

Gu Yanran smiled bitterly. "Mother, do you think I still have a reputation to speak of?"

"I ......" Lin Wanzhi was suddenly speechless, because she knew that Gu Yanran's reputation had already reached the point of no return.

Gu Haoran took advantage of this time to change the topic and ask the doubts in his heart. "By the way, Yan'er, how did you become the gentleman of Shangheng Academy?

Although you used to study at Shangheng Academy, your classes were not satisfactory......"

"Brother." Gu Yanran interrupted Gu Haoran's rather obscure statement and directly made it clear. "You don't think I'm qualified to be a gentleman, do you?"

Gu Haoran knew that his words would definitely make Gu Yanran feel sad or angry. "I'm sorry."

"No need to apologize, I'm not angry with my brother." Gu Yanran took out the teaching seal from her arms and spread out her palm. "This teaching seal, as I said, is evidence that can prove that I have become Mr. Shangheng Academy."

Lin Wanzhi thought that Gu Yanran was angry, and hurriedly explained. "Yan'er, my mother and your brother didn't doubt what you said, don't be angry."

"Listen to me." Gu Yanran continued. "To get the teaching seal and become the gentleman of Shangheng Academy, you need to go through further testing and review by the supervisors of the Academy.

Whether or not you are qualified to be a teacher to teach and educate people, the supervisors will give the fairest and most severe judgment.

And at this moment, the teaching seal is in my hand...... You should get the idea, right? ”

There was a trace of astonishment in Gu Haoran's eyes. So, what that means...... Did you pass? ”

"It's passed." Gu Yanran squinted her eyes and smiled very proudly.

Lin Wanzhi was shocked at first, then raised her sleeves and wiped the tears on her face, her heart was full of pride. "To be able to become the gentleman of the Yeyu Kingdom Shangheng Academy, my Yan'er is really amazing!"

"It's not just amazing, it's just amazing!" Gu Haoran also felt proud, and asked curiously. "What kind of lessons?"

Gu Yanran curled the corners of her lips. "Qinqi, calligraphy and painting."

"No, no, no, I'm not asking you how many courses there are at Shangheng Academy." Gu Haoran thought that Gu Yanran had misunderstood his question, so he rearranged his words and asked. "I'm asking you which class you teach!"

"Personally, I teach the four courses of piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting!"

Lin Wanzhi exclaimed when she heard this. "What ?!!"

Gu Haoran swallowed his saliva with a little difficulty. "Yan, Yan'er, aren't you kidding?"

"I mean really! If you don't believe it, you can go to the notice board in front of the school early tomorrow morning to find out, and there will be a list of hiring Gu Yanran, the daughter of the Protector Mansion, as the four teachers of the Shangheng Academy's piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting. ”

To put it mildly, Gu Yanran finally persuaded Lin Wanzhi to agree to her moving out of the Protectorate Mansion, and then asked Gu Qiqiao to send Lin Wanzhi out of Yingyue Pavilion.

At this time, Gu Yanran looked at Gu Haoran, who was also about to leave. "Brother, are you leaving? Have you forgotten something? ”

"Forget ......" Gu Haoran tilted his head and thought about it, but he couldn't remember what he had forgotten. I haven't forgotten something. ”

Gu Yanran pursed her lips. "You said you were going to take me to see the lanterns!"

"Ah~~~ lanterns." Gu Haoran suddenly realized, and his eyes moved to Gu Yanran's injured foot. "I said I was going to take you to see the lanterns, but I forgot that you had a foot injury."

"My feet don't hurt anymore, and I can walk on my own." Gu Yanran stood up and planned to take two steps for Gu Haoran to take a look, but before the soles of her feet touched the ground, there was a sharp pain. "Whew......"

Gu Haoran was speechless, and sat Gu Yanran back on the edge of the bed. "Look at you, you can't stand up, and you still want to go out to shop for lanterns, so let's stay at home honestly."

"I don't want it!" Gu Yanran grabbed Gu Haoran's hand and shook it. "Brother~~Brother~~ You just take Yan'er there~~ Yan'er really wants to see the lanterns~~Please~~"

"Oh, okay, okay, I promised to take you to see the lanterns, don't shake me, your head is dizzy from you."

Gu Yanran immediately withdrew her hand with a bright smile. "Hee-hee, thank you, brother!"

"Don't rush to thank you first, it's okay to take you out, but there is a premise."

"You say, you say." As long as she can take her out to play, don't say a premise, even if it is ten, she will agree.

Gu Haoran deliberately lowered his face and warned her. "There are a lot of people watching the lanterns, you must follow closely behind me and your cousin, and you are absolutely not allowed to run around."

"That's for sure, who am I not following you?" Gu Yanran raised her injured foot again and appeared in front of Gu Haoran. "Besides, I still have a foot injury, and even if I want to run around, I don't have enough energy."

"That's right." Gu Haoran was relieved now. "Then you pack up, change into light clothes, and I'll pick you up in a moment."

## #夜禹皇城北门, by the moat

Around the moat, there are many stalls selling lanterns.

On the stall, there are lanterns with exquisite handiwork and excellent shapes, which attract passers-by to stop and watch and buy from time to time.

Gu Yanran took Gu Haoran's arm and stopped at a vendor. "Wow, brother, look at this lantern, how beautiful it is!"

"Well, it's pretty." Gu Haoran agreed with Gu Yanran's words, lowered his head and asked her. "Do you like it?"

Lin Shangshu on the side came over. "Cousin likes this lantern? How about my cousin bought it for you? ”

"No, cousin." Gu Yanran rejected Lin Shangshu's kindness. "I just think it's beautiful, but I don't plan to buy it."

Gu Haoran didn't understand. "What you say is really inconsistent, if you like it, buy it, and we don't lack this little money."

"That's right, buy it, cousin pay." As he spoke, Lin Shangshu took out the silver from the money bag he had returned to the house before.

"Cousin!" Gu Yanran raised her hand to cover Lin Shangshu's money bag and shook her head. "Yan'er really doesn't want lanterns, so you don't have to break the bank."

Lin Shangshu was not reluctant when he heard this, but just turned his head and asked Gu Qiqiao beside him. "Qiqiao, if you have a favorite lantern, take it, and the young master will reward you."
