Chapter 3 Scholars

Just as Gu Li was distracted, a very soft voice sounded outside the small wooden door: "The new sister seems to be in a girls' school, and when she goes back and forth to the city, she asks for ten copper plates a day, which is almost a day's food money for our family." ”

"Why don't you tell Xiaoli, my daughter's family, it's useless to learn so much knowledge, let her go to the mountains to collect medicine like Xiaorou."

"No, Xiaoli is a young lady in the city, we can't give her the same life of fine clothes and food, and it won't work if this girl breaks her again."

"Mother, if I copy more books, it will be easier to make money."

"No, my brother is about to take the exam, so I can't be distracted anymore."

"It's all because my father has no interest and makes little money." Father Gu's face was a little gloomy.

"How can I blame you? At the beginning...... "Gu's mother wanted to speak and stopped, and finally turned into a sigh."

"As soon as I came back, I brought such a big problem to the family, what a troublemaker!"

"Xiao Yan! Don't talk nonsense! It was Gu's father's voice.

Hearing this, Gu Li opened the door and walked out, Gu's father and Gu mother looked up at her, and the gloom on their faces had not yet dissipated.

A yin and yang weird voice sounded: "Originally, if it was Xiaorou, it would definitely not embarrass my father." ”

Gu Chen drank lowly: "Xiao Yan, how did you speak?" ”

"Originally, Xiaoyi, a female student in the village, never said to go to school, and she could go up the mountain every day to pick some herbs to subsidize the family!" The third Gu Yan said unconvinced, "She is an eldest lady, and she still attends a female school in the city, which will only increase the burden on the family." ”

When his words fell, Gu Chen's face became ugly, what he said was the truth, and everyone fell silent.

But suddenly hearing a "flutter", Gu Li smiled, and her excessively beautiful and delicate face was set off by this smile, like a charm in the dark night, so beautiful that it was moving.

When she smiled, the third Gu Yan immediately exploded, and said angrily: "What are you laughing at?" Am I wrong? Eat rice! ”

Gu Li had a smile on his face, walked to the middle of everyone, and sat where Gu Lun was sitting just now.

"Dad, mother, brothers, you don't have to worry, because I have good grades, my master has exempted my tuition, as for the fare, I can go up the mountain to pick herbs in exchange, everyone rest assured, I am not too young, I can support myself, and I will not burden my family."

Gu Li's voice was clear, with a little girlish coquettishness: "Third brother, will you take me up the mountain tomorrow?" ”

Gu Yan only felt that he was being ridiculed, his face couldn't hold it, and his tone was even more mean: "Who is the third brother?" I only have one sister! Xiaorou won't go to school hard and burden her family......"

Gu Li raised her eyebrows and sighed lightly: "Okay, Daddy, Shen Rou doesn't go to school, is it really because our family has no money?" ”

"This ......" Gu's father was a little embarrassed.

Gu's mother also showed a hint of confusion on her face.

Of course not.

It was Shen Rou who didn't want to go to school, she said that she was dizzy when she saw the words, she secretly slipped out from her master to play, she didn't go to school after paying the money, she was the last in her academic performance, and she was often slapped by her master and cried every day.

The family was distressed, so they didn't let her go, but let her follow the third child up the mountain to collect medicine, after all, life in this family is also very poor, and when it comes to collecting medicine, she is also playing most of the time.

Because she was often with Gu Yan, Gu Yan doted on Shen Rou and felt that she was cute and naughty if she didn't take medicine seriously, but she didn't think that Shen Rou just didn't go to school and didn't make any contribution to this family.

"What's the matter with you? Anyway, Xiaorou is a thousand times better than you, ten thousand times better! Gu Yan was angry.

The smile on Gu Li's face remained unchanged: "I also know that Shen Rou doesn't like to go to school, so she didn't let her go to school, right?" ”

Everyone in the audience had different expressions, even Gu Yan didn't speak anymore angrily, his face was blue and white for a while, but Gu Li's next words shocked the audience.

She said: "However, my results are the first in the autumn exam every year!" ”

Gu's father and Gu's mother were so shocked that they couldn't speak,

Gu Yan glanced up at her in some surprise, but quickly lowered his head again.

Gu Chen looked up at her, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, only he knows how difficult it is to excel in the women's school in the city, almost all of those ladies have husbands at home, everyone is very diligent and hardworking, and they are all excellent, so it is difficult to get ahead.

"Who are you fooling? I don't believe it! Gu Yan hummed in her mouth, but she was a little drumming in her heart, she wouldn't really be so powerful, right?

Gu Li was not in a hurry to argue, turned to Gu Chen and said, "Big brother is about to try it out, right?" Why don't my eldest brother give me debut exam questions? ”

"This ...... Xiaoli, you're too tired today, you should rest early. Gu Chen was a little embarrassed.

"Big brother, just do me a favor!" Gu Li hugged Gu Chen's arm, smiled sweetly, and said coquettishly.

"That'...... Okay, here I have an exam paper, which is a question from our master, you can do it, if there is anything in it that you can't do, you can leave it empty first. ”

"Thank you, big brother!" Gu Li snatched the paper and happily went to do the question, leaving everyone present staring at each other.

Gu Xiaomeng tugged at Gu Chen's sleeve and said cautiously: "Big brother, it looks like this sister is really powerful." ”

"I can't do a question for a while, let's see if she will cry!" Gu Yan cocked Erlang's legs, and the old god was in the tunnel.

Gu Chen looked at Gu Li who was writing at the table, the girl was sitting in front of the dilapidated dining table with a pen, under the light, her delicate facial features were looming, her slender fingers were holding the pen, one horizontal and one vertical were very rhythmic, and the silhouette reflected on the wall was extremely pleasing to the eye.

Gu Li put down her pen and didn't stop for a moment, and in a short time, she filled a few large sheets, and in less than an hour, she put down her pen and handed Gu Chen the paper densely filled with words.

Gu Chen just glanced at it and was amazed.

What a beautiful word, silkworm head swallowtail, beautiful body rhyme, each word jumps on the paper like a fairy, it is obviously the most ordinary paper, but it is precious because of this word.

Everyone in the hall looked at Gu Chen, and Gu Chen held the paper, motionless, sometimes contemplative, sometimes nodding.

Gu Yan couldn't hold back his temperament and said, "Big brother, how is it, is it a mess of answers?" ”

Gu Chen shook his head slowly, and showed the paper in his hand to everyone: "If Xiaoli can participate in the township test of this temple, her results will be better than mine." ”

Everyone looked at the paper, even if they didn't know how to read, they could see that Gu Li's words were even better than Gu Chen's.

Gu Chen's voice continued to come slowly: "This test paper was given to us by the master, and it is the most difficult test paper among the township exams over the years. ”

Gu Yan opened her mouth and raised her eyes to look at Gu Li, the girl stood with a smile, with one hand behind her back, not shocked.
