4 Chapter 4
Gu Changlin knew that his wife was afraid that he was going to talk about the private school when she came in, and although he was upset, he still kept his temper down and said, "Come in." ”
Zhu Qiaoniang walked in.
Gu Changlin looked at his wife and said softly, "Is there something wrong with you?" ”
Zhu Qiaoniang glanced at her son, and then asked, "Do you know about my father going to a private school?" ”
"Hmm." Gu Changlin didn't hide his irritability: "Little Yang has already told me." ”
Zhu Qiaoniang pondered the language, "Although I don't know the specific situation of your private school, but your age is not too young, if there is really anything, the sister-in-law will not be so sure to let her father and mother check, if it really doesn't work, do you have other plans?" ”
In the words, Zhu Qiaoniang showed that she didn't know, but in fact, in the past few days, the Yang family has been talking about Gu Changlin's private school in front of her, Zhu Qiaoniang knows that this is the case, and Gu Changlin will not be able to continue reading it nine times out of ten.
It was definitely impossible for Gu Changlin to sit still, but he looked at his wife, his eyes flashed, "Do you have anything to say?" ”
It seems that his wife has other ideas.
Zhu Qiaoniang nodded without hesitation, and her language was direct, "I thought, instead of you stepping down and letting the hairy eggs of the big house read at that time, it is better to put this opportunity in the hands of Xiao Yang, and his age should also be enlightened." ”
Gu Changlin was about to laugh angrily at Zhu Qiaoniang's arrogant performance, "I've been studying for twenty years, even if I haven't been admitted yet, but it's much easier to say than going to the family to provide for a child." ”
The implication is that it is quite possible for him to continue reading.
This is also the point where Gu Changlin wants to turn the tables around.
Zhu Qiaoniang was a little surprised, she frowned and said, "Do you still want to continue reading?" ”
"Of course." Gu Changlin said upsetly: "I've been reading it for so many years, how can I just come back." "After twenty years and not reading anything, he can imagine what the people in the village will think of him in the future.
In addition to this, he himself wants to continue reading, which is his obsession all along.
Zhu Qiaoniang pursed her lips, she knew that Gu Changlin still wanted face in her bones, but she forgot for a while that the people in the village would gossip, and when Gu Changlin withdrew, her son could study.
It's just that looking at the way it is now, Gu Changlin doesn't want to just forget it, with Gu Changlin's ability, maybe this level can really let him pass.
But in that case, what about the lambs?
She asked tentatively, "Do you have any arrangements for what the lamb should do in the future?" "If Gu Changlin has enough money in his hand, the matter of Xiao Yang's reading can also be discussed slowly in the future, otherwise she will have to see how to pull Gu Changlin down.
She felt that Gu Changlin must have silver in his hand.
Sure enough, after Gu Changlin was silent for a moment, he said: "The little sheep is weak, there is no way out for him to work in the field all the time, I will take his reading to heart, but now is not the time, he is only five years old, can wait, I was also more than six years old before I began to read and write." ”
"Okay." After receiving Gu Changlin's assurance, Zhu Qiaoniang immediately showed a smile on her face.
With Zhu Qiaoniang's understanding of Gu Changlin, Gu Changlin has never been a person who can only amplify words, saying this today can be regarded as giving her a guarantee, if nothing else, the matter of Xiaoyang's reading will be decided.
"But ,......," she hesitated, "the silver of Xiaoliu's study ......"
Gu Changlin said: "You don't have to worry about the silver, I will solve it." ”
Sure enough, her father-in-law had a lot of silver in his hands, Zhu Qiaoniang didn't continue to ask, she knew that even if Gu Changlin had silver, it was not easy to take out the silver, after all, there was no separation now, and everything should theoretically be public.
But it doesn't matter, her son is not her son alone, just put the problem on Gu Changlin.
With Gu Changlin's cleverness, he could think of a suitable way to solve it.
She knew that Gu Changlin still had feelings for her own pair of children.
After her son's affairs were guaranteed, Zhu Qiaoniang had no objection to Gu Changlin's desire to continue studying, after all, this was her husband, not her enemy, she also had feelings for him, and naturally hoped that he could live well and be admitted. It's just that Gu Changlin hasn't been admitted for so many years, and her son's age has arrived, compared with the two, she is more inclined to her son.
But now there is no need to choose between the two, she cares about Gu Changlin in her heart, and analyzes the attitudes of the old man and the old lady in the family during this period of time with Gu Changlin, etc., so that Gu Changlin can decide what to do in the future.
As for Gu Changlin's own silver, even if his family doesn't allow him to read, he can read it with his own money, it's just the next policy in the next policy, Gu Changlin, a scholar who has been supported by his family for many years, is completely different from Gu Yi, and if he doesn't handle that kind of behavior well, it is easy for people to beat him as unfilial.
A scholar who is not filial is not worthy of fame.
After finishing speaking, Zhu Qiaoniang went out to cook again.
However, Gu Yi was ignored by the two of them for a while because he had been sitting quietly on the side.
Gu Changlin sat in his position thinking about things, and after a while, a child's immature voice came from the air, "Dad, can you memorize all the books you learned in the private school?" ”
Gu Changlin was stunned by this voice, and after his gaze shifted, he saw a pair of swarthy eyes that were as calm as deep water.
Gu Changlin's heart jumped suddenly, he thought of that dream, when he cut off his head, his son smiled, and even his expression was enjoyable, and then looked at the other party's eyes now, how to look at how abnormal.
Obviously a very good-looking child, but those eyes give people an indescribable neurotic feeling.
Of course, Gu Changlin didn't know the word neuroticism, but this did not prevent him from feeling that his son was abnormal and weird.
In such an atmosphere, he answered Gu Yi's question in a ghostly manner: "I can basically memorize everything." ”
Gu Changlin actually attaches great importance to studying, and his goal in life is to show off talent in the examination, and it is best to continue to take the examination to lift people, and then become an official, and slowly rise step by step.
But he was too greedy, and after intersecting with several young masters in the private school, he not only wanted to develop his social circle and pave the way for the future, but also wanted to get benefits from the other party.
He thought very well, but those people didn't look down on him at all, they only treated him for fun, and by the time he reacted, he couldn't break free.
Maybe he didn't really want to break free, after all, the money he got from others was real, and for a person from a poor background, the expenses that were rewarded to him from time to time were already a huge amount of money, and he couldn't give it up easily.
He is not a peerless genius, he has been fooling around with people for a long time, even if he has been trying to remedy it behind his back, but his energy has been exhausted by that side, and he gradually can't keep up with any progress, and the master is too lazy to bother with him anymore, and then it has evolved into what he is now.
Fortunately, if nothing else, in the past twenty years, Gu Changlin has been able to memorize almost all those books.
Because he often can't listen to lectures well, he is obsessed with reading in his bones, so he focuses more on memorizing.
Gu Yi got up and walked over, picked up a few books on Gu Changlin's desk, and randomly checked a few pages, Gu Changlin recited them smoothly, Gu Yi nodded.
Gu Changlin said with some amusement: "Are you literate? He hasn't enlightened his son yet, but he can't help but laugh when he sees the other party's serious appearance.
Gu Yi said as a matter of course: "Of course I don't know, but it's ......"
The child's voice was nonchalant, "At this time, if you fool people again, it won't be interesting." ”
He is not the master who inspected Gu Changlin, so Gu Changlin didn't need to memorize it.
Anyway, what affects Gu Changlin is whether he can read or not, it has little to do with him, if Gu Changlin can't read, it just happens to let him go up.
He said: "Since Daddy can memorize all this, then it will be easy for you to convince Grandpa, you are old, and this is not all bad." "The Gu family has invested so many years, and the cost of silence is too high, and they still want to see results after all.
Gu Changlin has not yet reached the point of being hopeless.
The most important thing is that Gu Yi knew that Gu Changlin became an official later, which showed that Gu Changlin must have been admitted, so for the sake of the other party being his father, and his father's current relationship is not bad, he will not make a stumbling block for Gu Changlin at this time.
Gu Changlin can be an official by himself, and it is best to rise step by step, after all, although Gu Yi also decided to study, he only wants the status of a scholar, he is free by nature, and he has not yet thought about whether he will be an official in the future.
He continued: "Dafang wants to let Mao Dan go to study, but he has not yet been enlightened, and it will take at least half a year to learn to read, let alone others, this is too slow, if you promise to teach the children in the family to enlighten when you come back from vacation every month, there is no delay at both ends, and the old man will agree nine times out of ten, and it just so happens that my age should also be enlightened." ”
There is no school in their village, and if you want to be literate, you have to go to the city, which costs a lot, which still makes Gu Changlin more trouble-free.
"It's just that your age is also here, if you still can't read any movement in the past two years, even if you keep to yourself in the private school, I'm afraid the family will let you go back."
Under Gu Yi's words, Gu Changlin also thought about it, and finally found that this possibility was indeed very high, and he planned to start from this aspect, Gu Yi's words just made his plan more perfect.
As for teaching children to be enlightened, he didn't think it was bad, he also thought that when his son could read and write, he would just be studying with him in a private school, or just in a private school near him, and then he could live together, and he had a house in the city, otherwise his son would be too young to be alone, and he would not be at ease.
The private school on his side does not teach people to read and write, and if Gu Yi wants to go in, he needs to be enlightened in advance.
He ignored the nervous eyes of the previous child, picked up Gu Yi, with a warm smile on his face, and praised: "Our little sheep is really smart, your idea is great, I haven't found our little sheep so smart before." ”
was affectionately held in his arms and coaxed, this person was his father.
Gu Yi's pupils dilated, his body trembled with excitement, as if there were fireworks blooming in his mind, he stretched out his little hand around Gu Changlin's neck, his little face was red, he had the shy character of the original owner, and said shyly: "I also want to help my father." ”
