69 Chapter 69
Gu Yi didn't have time to return home, and the patriarchs and elders of the clan all came when they heard the news.
"Chang Lin, is this news true? Little sheep, he has already become a showman? ”
"Yes." Gu Changlin is also honored at this time, "If you are admitted, you will be the head of the county case, and you will be able to become a talent directly." ”
"Oh, look over there, is the official here? They must have come to tell the good news, right? Someone suddenly screamed.
Everyone looked over there, only to see a group of officialdom beating gongs and drums coming this way, seeing that there were many people on their side, and some officials asked directly: "May I ask where is Gu Yi's little prodigy's home?" ”
Most of the people in the government basically knew about Gu Yi's existence, and many of them practiced martial arts in the Qi family's martial arts hall.
Later, as time went by, everyone slowly knew that this child was not only talented in martial arts, but also very good at reading, and was nicknamed the little prodigy.
At the beginning, everyone didn't take this seriously, until this time the county test ranking came out, everyone saw the familiar name, and thought that they were wrong, but when they looked at their age and birth, and then looked at their hometown, it was not the village where Gu Yi was located.
Originally, the results of the county examination did not need to be reported by the official messenger, only if the college examination was successful, there would be an official messenger to report the good news in turn, in fact, it was said to be the good news, and the officials were actually going to the happy money.
There are many people who have won the college examination, and the officials can earn a lot of money in a busy day.
But the county test is different, although the first in the county test can also directly become a showman, and has the qualification to be reported to the good news, but after all, he is alone, and he can't get much money, the officials are casual, sometimes they go to report the good news, sometimes they can't go, after all, if the first is from a rich family, the happy money will not be less.
Gu Yi is not in the distribution that everyone is willing to go, but he can't stand the fact that there are many servants in the official mansion who know him, no, everyone just come over and have a lively time.
While talking here, the officials over there also saw Gu Yi's figure, and shouted loudly: "Little Gu Xiucai." ”
A group of officials came to Gu Yi and them with a smile on their eyebrows and eyes: "Little Gu Xiucai, congratulations." ”
"Uncle Zhao, Uncle Fang, Brother Cheng......" Gu Yi shouted several people he knew in a row.
The people of the government have always made the ordinary people afraid, and when such a group of people came to the village and stood in front of them, the people in the village were already nervous and did not know what to do.
Seeing Gu Yi talking and laughing with these people, and looking like they were in a good relationship, they were all shocked and envious.
An official messenger came to report the good news, and it was time to give the good news, but Gu Changlin and the others had just come back, and they didn't get home, where was the silver on them, fortunately, these people Gu Changlin was barely familiar, so he invited everyone at this time, "Brother Zhao, thank you for coming, no, the family is preparing lunch, let's get together together, have a meal, and drink some wine." ”
This...... Zhao Qing, who was in the lead, hesitated, there were several of them, and they felt embarrassed to come to someone's house for dinner like this.
The patriarch hurriedly said: "It's a good thing that the little sheep is admitted to the show, Chang Lin asked your family not to cook alone, let's do it together in our clan, today."
The whole village celebrates every day, and the things are just out of my little old man's house. ”
Although the patriarch is old, his family is second to none in the village, and eating meat is not a problem at all.
Generally, if there is a major event, it is true that the clan will celebrate it uniformly and so on, and such things happen not often.
The people in the village also cheered, this is a big celebration, isn't it that there will be a lot of meat dishes on the table, and if you can eat a good meal, who would not want it.
The patriarch warmly invited the officials to join him, this is the people in the yamen, and he has a good relationship with these people, that is, when they pay grain and taxes every year, they can have a better attitude, and people in other villages will be jealous of them, in general, it is beneficial and harmless to make friends with them.
In case something happens, you can still have an acquaintance when you get to the yamen.
Zhao Qing and the others had no choice but to agree to stay and eat under the warm invitation of the patriarchs and clan elders, they were not good at sitting and waiting, the older ones were accompanied to talk, and the younger officials simply worked with the villagers.
During this period, Gu Yi also went to the ancestral hall to worship his ancestors under the auspices of the patriarchs.
After that, it was time to officially eat, while eating, after hearing that someone was coming, Gu Yi could only put down his chopsticks, stretched out his hand, and touched the hands of the village dolls who came to rub the joy, touched the head, shoulders and the like, this is what many people will do at the moment.
After Gu Yi agreed to one before, he didn't dare whether the children at home were studying, so he was busy pulling the baby over to let Gu Yi touch it.
Seeing Gu Yi giving joy to his child, the aunt who followed behind the baby couldn't help but smile and boast to Gu Yi in a fancy way.
While eating, soon several more carriages appeared in the village.
"There's a carriage coming."
The children shouted.
The patriarchs and the Gu family also stood up and looked over there, those two carriages were more familiar, Gu Changlin had seen them before, yes
Wu Yuanliang and the three of them are in the family.
He knew that it should be their father and mother in the family, and he knew that his son had passed the county exam, so he came here to see the lamb.
As the carriage approached, as expected, several people descended in turn.
All of them were smiling, kind and kind, Wu Yuanliang and his father had seen Gu Yi, and as soon as his eyes searched the crowd at this time, he saw someone, "Little Master Gu." ”
The patriarch stepped forward to speak as a representative, but he actually knew in his heart that this was probably for Gu Yi, "You are?" ”
Father Wu and the patriarch greeted each other, "I am Wu Yuanliang's father, a student taught by Xiao Gu Fuzi, this is Wu Yuanliang's mother, they are Jia Mao's father's mother, and Xiong Chun's father's mother." ”
"Xiao Gu has been teaching our three children in the private school, this time, our three children have also passed the county exam, I heard that Xiao Gu Master was admitted to the county case, we are here to congratulate Xiao Gu Master."
Seeing that the imperial examination was really hopeful, the three families were so excited that they couldn't do it, and they were thinking about what gift to give in the warehouse at home, they could have arrived earlier, but they went to Gu Yi's small courtyard in the city, and they didn't find anyone, so they turned the carriage and came to the village.
Because I didn't know the way, I was a little slower along the way.
Gu Yi taught a few young masters to read in a private school, and the village also heard about it, but everyone didn't know that even those young masters were there this time
They all passed the county exam.
Although he has passed the county exam, he is not a showman, and he is different from Gu Yi's county case, but there are so many people in the village, if they can be admitted to the county exam, Gu Yi will definitely be able to let them take the government exam and the hospital exam again, and even become a big official.
"I just said, the little sheep must have come down from Wenqu Xingjun."
"I'm still studying, so I can teach others, how can ordinary people be like this, only this one in our village is the real Wenqu Xingjun."
"How can this Gu family give birth to such a powerful child as Little Lamb."
"You said that Cuicui's age is also time to say goodbye......"
As soon as these words came out, others refuted them, "Your kid still wants to marry Cuicui, the Gu family is so promising, you must tell Cuicui about her in-laws in the city." ”
Gu Yi is still so young, he will definitely be able to be a person and an official in the future, and there will be no shortage of people who want to be in-laws with the Gu family, even if they are from the city, they will not feel that the Gu family is unworthy.
Besides, the Gu family's house is now considered to be from the city, they have a house in the city, and the whole family lives in the city.
After Father Wu introduced their respective identities, everyone began to talk to Gu Changlin and them, praising Gu Yi in all directions, and the wives of the three families also talked to Zhu Qiaoniang, and they also praised Gu Yi for being good, praising them for raising children, and so on. It can be seen that these people are indeed very excited about their son's scientific research, and they are very sincere in their gratitude to the Gu family.
is also because Gu Yi is already a talent, so even if their family is rich and noble, they do not look down on people at all, or have a high-minded attitude.
The things they sent were all directed to be sent to Gu's house, and the village chief and they added stools for the three new couples to eat.
After the banquet, Gu Changlin sent away the people of the Wu family, the Jia family and the Xiong family, and then these officials who came to report the good news, Gu Changlin also took the happy money, "This is happy money, everyone is happy, it's not easy to excuse it." ”
After a pull, he finally let people accept the money and send everyone away successfully.
Gu Changlin took a deep breath, although it was quite tiring to greet people with high intensity at noon, but he was quite satisfied, this kind of interaction with people with high family background and status could give him a sense of psychological accomplishment and satisfaction.
On the contrary, Gu Yi, the real protagonist today, is quite impatient with these, except for laughing when he mentions him, he basically doesn't talk much.
He didn't like it.
If it weren't for seeing his father and mother happy, he just wanted to be expressionless to everyone, and his brain was buzzing when he was chattering.
The banquet dispersed, but most of the people did not leave, the man helped to carry the tables and chairs back, and the woman went to wash the dishes, strictly speaking, women's work is more tedious and heavy, but in the current environment, washing dishes and cooking are basically women's work, fortunately, everyone talks and chats together, and they don't feel bored.
Zhu Qiaoniang and several concubines of the Gu family did not leave, and stayed at the patriarch's house to help clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
After everything was cleaned up, everyone broke out talking and laughing.
The Gu family returned home, and the gifts sent by the three families of the Wu family were all sent by Mrs. Gu directly to Zhu Qiaoniang and Gu Changlin's room.
How to deal with these gifts was a matter of one room, and although she was curious, she didn't let one room show it in public.
When they got home, Zhu Qiaoniang and Gu Changlin, including Gu Yi and Gu Cui, were actually very curious about these gifts, and they all followed their parents to the room.
Zhu Qiaoniang and Gu Changlin didn't mean to carry their children on their backs, so they started to watch it directly.
There are three piles of gifts, and it is easy to distinguish which ones are given by which one.
These people have affections, even if they don't have to return the gift, but they have to know in their hearts, so Zhu Qiaoniang will look at them in order!
