After eight or nine days, Gu Chengyu and the others approached the capital city of Jingyuan Mansion.

The gate of Fucheng was already in sight, and Gu Chengyu couldn't help but sigh, but it was finally here!

The coachman drove the carriage and soon reached the gate of the city. It was early in the morning, and there was a long queue at the gate of the city.

When he was about to come back before, he had already sent a letter from the dart bureau. Because I took a horse-drawn carriage on the way, it was two days later than scheduled.

"Miss Yao! The city of Jingyuan has arrived! Gu Chengyu sent Mingmo over to inform Yao Mengxian, after all, Yao Mengxian had never been to Fucheng, and the girl's house was not allowed to lift the curtain to look out.

Yao Mengxian also breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and after sitting in the carriage for almost ten days, she felt that everyone was going to be wasted.

The carriage is not like a boat, although the boat sometimes shakes, but as long as it does not get seasick, it is not too uncomfortable that day. There are many places to move on the ship, and the carriage has only one carriage, so even if you want to lie down, you can't.

Besides, women are always inconvenient, take the three urgents as an example, it is not more convenient than men. She wanted to relieve herself, but she had to stop halfway, go deeper into the grass by the roadside, and wrap a cloth around her.

Gu Chengyu and they are all men, and she is embarrassed to always stop halfway, this kind of thing is always difficult to talk about.

So she tried to drink as little water as possible, and even the food was dry, and she didn't even dare to drink the soup. I'm afraid of delaying everyone's trip, and I'm afraid of losing my face.

Lianxin and the others were also happy, these few days of hurrying were simply torture for the woman's delicate body, and everyone was also miserable.

Even Gao's mother, who has always been steady, raised a smile, "It's really time to Jingyuan Mansion, girl!" I don't know if the old lady is in the house at this time. ”

"It's supposed to be here, it's still early!" Qing Dai also interjected, everyone was in high spirits, swept away the previous malaise, and had a smile on their faces.

Qingdai couldn't help but want to open the curtain of the carriage, but was beaten by Gao's mother, "This is not a wilderness, the city is full of people, how can you lift the curtain?" When you leave the house, where did your rules go? ”

Before being in Fuzhong, Gao's mother didn't feel it yet. It's just that she went out of the door, and now she is becoming more and more dissatisfied with Qingdai.

Qingdai is the son of the house, and she can be a second-class girl, so it stands to reason that the rules are naturally not bad. However, when she left the house, she felt that Qingdai's rules were becoming more and more loose.

Qingdai was beaten by Gao's mother like this, and she was also stunned. She also felt that she seemed to be a little wild recently, and she was originally in the house, because the girl was not favored, and even the mother-in-law who worked in the big kitchen could show her face. After only ten days of going out, she forgot her duty.

Yao Mengxian didn't speak, she also thought the same as Gao's mother. Qingdai, I really have to teach the rules well.

Lianxin is steady, and she knows how to think about her, and she also desperately protects the Lord at the moment of life and death, and her relationship with Lianxin is naturally different.

As for Qingdai, because she didn't accompany her to the end in her dream, of course her feelings should be weaker. But she also has some affection for Qingdai, just because she has never betrayed her.

Gu Chengyu looked at the crowd waiting for investigation in front of him, and found that there were many people in front. The officials guarding the gate stabbed the people twice in the vegetable baskets with knives and guns, and then waved them away.

As for the baggage, the official does not look at it, and only checks the large volume of the content, and then it will be released. The carriage is the most in need of checking, and the official will inspect it in detail. However, Gu Chengyu is a man, and the inspection is nothing, but Miss Yao has some trouble.

I don't know if his proof of lifting people will be useful, so I can only try it when the time comes.

Gu Chengyu glanced ahead a few times, but found that there was a person at the gate of the city who was a little familiar.

Hey? Isn't this the external steward of the teacher's house? Did you come to pick them up? But they don't know when the carriage will arrive.

"Ming Yan! You go up and greet Steward Liang. ”

Ming Yan responded, jumped out of the carriage, and walked towards the city gate.

Gu Chengyu watched Ming Yan and Steward Liang salute each other, and then Steward Liang was a little excited, and followed Ming Yan to this side.

"The slave has seen Gu Gongzi!"

Gu Chengyu opened the curtain and accepted his salute, and then asked strangely: "Steward Liang came to this city gate, wouldn't he be waiting for us?" ”

Steward Liang smiled, "It's the master who calculated that you and your cousin should be here in the next few days, so he ordered the servants to wait at the city gate when opening and closing the city gate, and let the little servants in the house guard it at other times, and the slave is only coming on the first day!" You're back, and it's a coincidence. ”

Gu Chengyu didn't think he had this treatment, the teacher shouted at him on weekdays, how could he come to pick him up? I'm afraid it's for his granddaughter, right?

"The teacher is really considerate. Your cousin is in the carriage behind, go and salute! Let's go to the teacher's mansion first. "There were already a lot of people in front of them, and it was about to be their turn to the carriage.

Steward Liang hurriedly went to the carriage behind to salute.

When Gu Chengyu was about to get out of the car to be interrogated, Steward Liang hurriedly stepped forward and gave the official a post, and after the official saw it, he didn't check Gu Chengyu's carriage and let him go directly.

Gu Chengyu guessed, it may be the senior brother who took them, the teacher has already been Zhishi, and now he has no official position, and the official does not recognize the official who has been Zhishi, does he care if you are a great Confucian?

Since you have come to Fucheng, the teacher's family still has to visit first. If you win the lift, of course, you must thank the teacher first.

Liang Mansion is not far from Fuxue, and it is a three-entry house. The decoration of the Liang Mansion is mainly elegant, and the pavilions and lake rockeries are naturally not less.

Gu Chengyu and their carriage drove straight into the corner gate, Gu Chengyu went directly to the outer study, and Yao Mengxian entered the inner courtyard. sent the person to the courtyard of the Liang Mansion, and the coachman drove the carriage away, and Gu Chengyu had already paid the car money.

According to the habits of the past, Liang Zhirui will have to spend an hour before going to school, and he should still be practicing calligraphy in the outer study at this time.

Gu Chengyu followed Steward Liang into the house and found that Liang Zhirui was already washing his pen.

"The student has seen the teacher!" Gu Chengyu stepped forward as a big gift, lifted his robe and knelt down in front of Liang Zhirui.

Liang Zhirui looked at Gu Chengyu and seemed to be touched, and hurriedly said, "Okay!" Good! You didn't disappoint me! Hurry up! ”

Liang Zhirui put down the brush and personally stepped forward to help him up.

It is mandatory for the student council to bow to the teacher, but of course, this cannot be a daily prostration. Gu Chengyu listened to the teacher's teachings for three years, and now he has become a lifter, and he only performed this ceremony when he thanked his teacher.

As soon as Gu Chengyu stood up straight, Liang Zhirui said with a smile: "The old man has long thought that you have the talent to solve the yuan, but I didn't expect you to be successful." ”

Gu Chengyu was a little speechless, you obviously didn't say that before you got old.

As if seeing what Gu Chengyu was thinking, Liang Zhirui continued: "I also wanted you to guard against arrogance and rashness before, and the old man was afraid that you would think you were talented and that there was no one in your eyes. The old man also knows that you have a stable temperament, but I am afraid that you will develop a hollow-minded temperament. What do you think? There are a lot of talented people in the township test, right? ”
