The gifts sent by the three families were all in boxes, and each family had five or six large and small boxes.

Everyone reached out to open it.

Then, "hiss~"

A few people gasped.

The remaining boxes were also opened, and the Gu family was silent.

After a long time, Zhu Qiaoniang said with difficulty: "Isn't this too much?" ”

The three families seem to be unified, each family has stuffed two hundred taels of silver tickets, and then they are all other gifts, although there are not many silver tickets, but the medicinal materials for health in other boxes, such as those ginseng, bird's nest, etc., are good things at a glance, and they are worth a lot of money, and the Wu family also gave a box of jewelry, pearls, jade bracelets, necklaces, etc., full of a box.

These jewels, even if they are only worth a few taels each, a dozen taels or twenty taels, add up to a lot of property.

Gu Changlin picked up the things sent by the Xiong family, "The best inkstone, as well as this pine smoke ink, this one is estimated to be one hundred taels smaller." ”

All in all, the things sent by the three families are very expensive, and they are all things that can be used.

However, it was mainly for Gu Yi and their small family in the second room, and it was not connected to the entire Gu family.

Seeing that Zhu Qiaoniang was too shocked, Gu Changlin explained: "Actually, this is nothing for a big businessman like the Wu family, not just anyone can let their son be admitted to the county exam, before Wu Yuanliang and the three of them had been studying in the private school for so long, and they were also studying seriously in the last two or three years, but they didn't make much progress, and the little sheep paid for it was worth so much." ”

"It is estimated that because this is only a county exam, so these are the things they give, if they can really be admitted to Xiucai, they will operate it, maybe they can become officials, and the amount they will give will only be countless times more than this."

For gifts, Father Wu and the others did think about it for a long time, and they were worried that Gu Yi's family would not be short of money in the future, so they were too lazy to teach their children, and they gave less, and they were worried that they would not respect and pay attention to it enough.

After all, strictly speaking, Wu Yuanliang and the three of them were only admitted to the county examination, and if they didn't make any progress after that, it would be useless for the county to try.

Therefore, they unanimously agreed to give each of them only three hundred taels for the time being, and then give some other heavy gifts.

Zhu Qiaoniang was just worried that she would receive too much, the two sides would pay unequally, and her son would be wronged in the future, since Gu Changlin understood these and said that there was no problem, she was relieved.

Gu Yi also received it calmly.

How can anyone not like gold and silver wealth, Zhu Qiaoniang looked at these, not to mention how happy she was, "Everything is reserved for the little lamb." "I don't need it at home for the time being.

Gu Yi pointed to the jewels and said, "You don't need to keep them all, you can use them if you can, this bracelet is so beautiful, my mother is just right to carry it." He picked up one of the transparent jade bracelets and put them on Zhu Qiaoniang.

The smile on the corner of Zhu Qiaoniang's mouth couldn't be suppressed, she wanted to wear Meimei, but she was also a little embarrassed and said: "It's usually inconvenient to work when you wear it." ”

Gu Yi saw that his mother liked it, "My mother and sister wear it just right when they do embroidery, these are for my mother and sister, and I don't need them." ”

So much, it's expensive, Zhu Qiaoniang didn't think about using it all, "My mother and sister can just pick some of the ones they like, and keep the rest for you to marry your daughter-in-law in the future." ”

Gu Yi shook his head, his tone firm, "It's all for my mother and sister." ”

After saying that, he added another

sentence, "If you don't like it, you can use it as the bottom of the box for your sister, and this kind of thing can be sold for some silver at any time." ”

He has heard the discussion of the people in the village, his sister is sixteen this year, and she has reached the age when she should say that she should be married, and the women of this era are basically married at this age.

And here, the dowry of the marrying person is very important, and the more you give, the more attention the man will pay to it.

Although his future brother-in-law dares to treat his sister badly, he doesn't mind solving people quietly, but it would be bad if his sister would be sad because of this, so he still followed the local customs and tried his best to make everything smooth and better from the beginning, for ordinary people, most of the troubles in life are not enough money, and he can help the family get rid of this trouble.

This thing is nothing to him at all, it is not a dime, Lu Sheng's business is getting bigger and bigger, he wants money or jewelry is a trivial matter, he can get a lot of it at any time, but these are not good to show in the face at home.

Gu Changlin himself is also a generous character, he earned money back then, and he has always been stingy in buying gifts for his wife, children, etc., he is happy at this time, "What is polite to your son, only if you are happy, the little sheep will be happier, you use things, and you will bring more gifts to Cuicui in the future, and people will only give more gifts in the future." ”

As far as his son looks like he is sticking to his mother and sister every day, he bets that as long as these two people speak, his son will not refuse any request.

Zhu Qiaoniang has no doubt about her son's ability, in her opinion, her son has already let those young masters pass the county test, and there will be no problem in the government test and the hospital test after that, it's just a matter of time sooner or later.

She smiled and said, "Okay, then these mothers and sisters will accept them, our little sheep is really good." ”

Gu Yi's smile brightened.

After that, Gu Yi told his family that he decided that he wanted to take the government exam and the hospital exam again

Li Du is very supportive, Gu Changlin doesn't care, anyway, he has a talent and fame, and he secretly thinks in his heart, maybe his son's house test will not be so good!

How can there be a talent who can do so well in a few years of studying.

Gu Changlin was very sour.

They didn't stay long in Gu's house, and in the afternoon of the same day, they went back to the city, after all, they still had to go to school, since Gu Yi decided to take the government exam, there was not much time, the county exam and the government exam were generally two months apart, and the county exam plus the results took many days, and it was not long before it was time to go to the house exam.

As soon as the government test is over, it will be the turn of the hospital test.

Gu Changlin is preparing to participate in this year's college examination, he doesn't have much confidence, and it is very important to seize every day ahead.

Of course, they brought all the gifts they sent, and among them they picked a gold bracelet and gave it to Mrs. Gu.

The next day, Gu Yi and Gu Changlin returned to the private school.

As early as the day before, after the results of the county exam came out, all the people in the private school were in a sensation, although Gu Yi's county case was a little surprising, but it was not unacceptable, after all, Gu Yi has always been a prodigy, everyone knows that he has a very strong learning ability, and they all think that he will definitely be able to be admitted in the future, but they are surprised that he is so fast.

But Wu Yuanliang's three are different, they have been in the same private school for so long, and everyone knows what level these three used to be.

But there are such a few people, Gu Yi has really been for four and a half years

time, stunned to let them pass the county test!

They are not a small town that is not very competitive, they have a prosperous literary style here, and there are a lot of people who take the exam, just like that, Gu Yi can teach people, which shows his strong ability.

No matter how strong Gu Yi's own learning ability is, everyone will envy and look up to it at most, but in the end it has nothing to do with his own vital interests, and he doesn't pay much attention to it, but Gu Yi's teaching ability is so strong, it makes people's perceptions change instantly, Wu Yuanliang and the three of them are ordinary qualifications, I haven't heard how excellent their memory or understanding ability is, this is a god who can teach ordinary people.

For a while, everyone's eyes were about to move when they looked at Gu Yi.

Gu Changlin naturally also discovered everyone's intentions, so he announced the news in the class in advance, and Gu Yi was going to prepare for the government examination and the hospital examination next.

For a while, no one dared to disturb Gu Yi at this time.

Everyone also wants to see if Gu Yi's ability has reached that level, and the questions in the county exam are much simpler than those in the back, if Gu Yi himself is not at the level of Xiucai, he will naturally not be able to teach Xiucai.

Time passed so quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was time to take the exam.

The initial process of the government examination is similar to that of the county examination, all of them need to be connected with other candidates, and they need to find a guarantee from the students, Wu Yuanliang will help Gu Yi do these things, as for the three of them, they have no intention of participating in the government examination, and they are ready to study hard and take the exam again next year.

The anti-□□ test is held once a year, so there is no rush for this.

Of course, the main thing is that Gu Yi said that their current level is not enough, so no one wants to waste time in the examination room, and it is not a good thing to concentrate all day.

Gu Yi was going to take the government exam, and it didn't delay him to assign homework to Wu Yuanliang and the three of them in advance, and there were not a lot of them.

In this regard, Wu Yuanliang and the three said, thank you, big brother, but you don't have to be so concerned.

The advantage of living in a big city is also here, their county exam, government exam, and even sometimes the hospital exam, the examination room are all here, and there is no need to rush to other places, and the county seat under their jurisdiction here, when they want to take the government exam, they have to come here in advance to rent a house.

Compared with the county exam, the prefectural exam only takes three exams, the first two are one day each, and the last one is two days.

The sky was bright, and the Gu family went out to send Gu Yi for the exam again, Gu Changlin asked for leave in the private school again, and when he arrived at the place, according to the process, after checking his identity and being guaranteed, Gu Yi took his own examination guide, that is, the thing with his seat number written on it, and went into the examination room to find his seat.

This time the location is easier to find than the last one.

Because he was the head of the county last time, this time his seat was mentioned to the examiner's front test, of course, he was not the only one, and other good ones were also put on the seat.

When Gu Yi sat down, he saw someone next to him snort disdainfully, and then sat down behind him.

Gu Yi: ?

He said in his heart that his temper was indeed much better, and he sat down and waited for the exam to start, and after a while, the examiner appeared in front, the chief examiner of the government exam was the prefect, and the two naturally knew each other, but on this serious occasion, it was not a common place to pull relations, and there was nothing special about both parties.

After the exam time, Gu Yi looked at the questions and answered them quietly.

When it's over, he goes out, this kind of exam question is not difficult for him, Gu Yi didn't feel anything special, except that he was uncomfortable after sitting for a day.

As soon as he went out, his father and mother were waiting in the old place, and he trotted over, and under the care of his father and mother, the family began to walk back.

The same is true for the remaining two exams!
