"Fourth grandfather."

Song walked under the old banyan tree and made a gesture, and greeted: "Is your old man in good health recently?" ”

"Good, good, good."

Fourth Uncle Guo stroked his beard and squinted his old eyes, and looked at Song from top to bottom, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became.

"I heard that your talent show is about to take the exam, look at your spirit, this time you can be stable!"

Song smiled: "Then borrow the fourth grandfather's auspicious words." ”

Fourth Uncle Guo's mind moved slightly, and he looked at the girl standing beside him: "Ling'er, this is your brother Song, why don't you say hello when you see someone?" ”

The girl is Guo Ling, the daughter of the Guo family's big house, and the personal maid of the fourth lady of Baifu.

It was sixteen or seventeen years old like a flower, combed a double flat bun, eyebrows and eyes were prominent, and a pale yellow satin dress, I don't know which lady I thought it was.

Hearing this, Guo Ling stepped forward and saluted Song Fu: "Brother Song."

Song also returned the courtesy: "Miss Guo." ”

From the beginning to the end, his eyes were lowered, and he never glanced at Guo Ling.

It was Guo Ling, who secretly looked at Song several times.

"Oh, what is it called Miss Guo! According to generation, it's not an exaggeration for you to call a girl. Although you returned to the village late, and Ling'er was in the county seat all the year round, when she went home to visit relatives, the two of you had met a few times, and you still had an impression, right? ”

Fourth Uncle Guo saw his granddaughter's small movements in his eyes, and deliberately approached Song Tao.

He is very confident, looking at the entire Dafeng Village, there is no one who can compare to his precious granddaughter.

Although Ji Na girl...... Recently, after the long opening, the eyebrows and eyes are a little unusual...... But no matter how unusual it is, it's a country girl.

His family is different!

At the age of ten, he entered the Bai Mansion, and his food and clothing were with the Miss Bai family, and if he said that he was big, he would be at least the first half of the young lady.

Who in the village doesn't envy his family?

Even if some sell their daughters, they can only sell them to the rich landlord in the town as a foot-washing maid, and they want to enter the gate of the Bai family, and they don't have that creation.

Merely...... No matter how angry Ling'er is, she is a subordinate after all.

Two years ago, Young Master Bai fell in love with her and wanted to accept her into the room, but it was a short-lived ghost and had no luck, so it was okay not to mention it.

They signed a ten-year deed with Bai Fu, and seeing that there were still three years to go, they would not find a way out for their granddaughter, and when they came out of the Bai family, they were older, and where would they go to find a good family.

Especially Guo Ling has been studying and studying with Miss Bai for many years, and her vision has also increased, and she will never give in, how can those rural villagers get into her eyes.

Song: This kid is very good.

In addition to being good-looking and knowledgeable, the most important thing is that he has a good future!

If she can really be admitted to Xiucai this year, Ling'er marries him, maybe she can be an official wife in the future?

Then their Guo family can also follow suit.

The more Uncle Guo thought about it, the more enthusiastic he became, and when he looked at Song again, he was already looking at his grandson-in-law's eyes.

Song didn't realize it, and left first on the grounds that he wanted to go home to read his books.

Fourth Uncle Guo watched him go away, only to feel that even his back was very generous.

Turning his head, he noticed that his granddaughter was also looking in that direction.

Fourth Uncle Guo felt that there was a play: "Ling'er, what do you think of Song?" ”

How could Guo Ling not know what her grandfather meant.

To be honest, Song's own conditions are indeed very exciting.

Over the years in the Bai family, she has seen many rich and noble sons, and few of them can compare with Song in terms of appearance alone.

However, no matter how good his own conditions are, his family background is also a hard injury, and he can't use it.

"Master! Don't bother with this nonsense, I know it in my own heart. ”

Fourth Uncle Guo was anxious: "How can it be idle? You're going home in three years, so if you don't find a good home for yourself in advance, what can you do in the future? ”

Guo Ling recalled Song's washed white Confucian shirt, and then thought about his future uncle who had recently been a guest in the White Mansion, and his almost identical brocade robe and jade belt.

His lips pursed slightly: "What kind of good destination is he?" No matter how handsome the face is, can you exchange it for a full warehouse of pearls and jade, and no matter how good the article is, can it be exchanged for brocade clothes and food? ”

"Don't be short-sighted, he's a little difficult now, but he's going to get through it, as long as it takes a few more years......"

"A few years, a few years, what do you know? Is it so easy to take the test? Even if he is admitted, how good is the official? There are more Jinshi masters in the capital, and if there is no way, you can only sit on the cold bench? If you let me marry a poor scholar now, even if he really has a day of prosperity in the future, it will be ten years and decades later, and I will have a good life, why should I suffer that hardship for no reason? ”

Guo Ling has not finished speaking:

Slow to say that it is a talent, but what if it is the champion? In the end, he was defeated by the prince and grandson of the hairpin family, and the innate wealth and height were something that a poor student could not climb in a lifetime.

Fourth Uncle Guo always thought that those who were admitted to Xiucai and Jinshi would be respected everywhere. I can't figure out why Jinshi still sits on a cold bench when he arrives in the capital?

But he was too embarrassed to ask, for fear that his granddaughter would laugh at him.

Forget it, her granddaughter has seen the world in Baifu, and she must have a reason to say this.

"And what are your plans?"

Guo Ling naturally has a plan.

Recently, Mrs. is choosing a maid for Miss Four to marry, and she is not among the candidates because the deed is almost over, and she has been grinding with Miss Four.

But I don't plan to tell my family about this for the time being.

The capital is far away, not as good as Yeyang, and the family may not be willing to let her go.

"Master, I have my own ideas. If you believe in your granddaughter, I will definitely be able to have a bright future, give you and our parents' face. ”

Fourth Uncle Guo sighed: "Okay, you have the right idea when you are young, and no one in the village can compare to you when you are smart." ”

Guo Ling's eyes rolled and asked, "Master, it's Ji who went over first, right?" It looks like it's changed a lot, and I don't dare to recognize it. Is she familiar with Song? How do I feel that they have just returned from the same direction? ”

Before meeting Song, Ji first passed by the entrance of the village, but it was far away, and he was not familiar with each other, so he didn't say hello.

Fourth Uncle Guo shook his head: "She lives like a transparent person in the village, how can Song be familiar with her?" Although he has a sense of presence in the past half a year, Song has not been back to the village for most of the year, and I estimate that he may not be famous when he meets. ”

Guo Ling still felt that something was wrong.

Grandpa called Song, and when Song turned around, he still had an unfinished smile on his face.

Although I was cleaned up in an instant when I saw them, and became polite and polite, the joy that filled my body was ......

Guo Ling is not a little girl who doesn't know anything about the relationship between men and women.

Could it be ......

"It's not that you don't look down on Song? What does it matter if he is familiar with Ji or not? Fourth Uncle Guo asked.

Guo Ling remembered that she was going to Baifu for a long time, the fourth lady's close friend in the boudoir, Fang Yuzhi, the daughter of the academic and political daughter, and the corners of her mouth hooked a slightly strange smile arc.

"I can't look at it, but someone else can like it."
