Gu Qingling packed Master Yao, Second Master Yao, and Third Master Yao into the Yao Academy. He originally wanted to get a feel for their background and see if they had the potential to participate in the imperial examination.
Even if you can't pass the Jinshi examination, you can still be a part-time official or a scholar.
As long as she can get something out of it, it can be regarded as a good start for the younger generations of the Yao family. When the time comes, if she does more credit in the name of the Yao family, she might be able to become a "shadow official" for them.
It doesn't matter whether they have real power or not. As long as they take a good lead, they can do the next things and there will be hope in the future.
"Old lady, you look very happy?" The maid sent Uncle Yao back in the spring. She saw the smile on Gu Qingling's face and started laughing too.
As a servant of the Yao family, Chun Chun naturally hopes that the Yao family will get better and better, so that she can follow suit, right?
"What do you think?" Gu Qingling asked with a smile.
"I guess the old lady must be happy. What mother in the world doesn't want her son to be well? Now that the uncle is suddenly so motivated, he must have got into the heart of the old lady. This slave is also lucky.
After listening to it for so long, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to please the old lady with my uncle’s blessing like I do now.”
"Your little mouth is becoming more and more talkative now." Gu Qingling said with a smile, "Has the gentle and considerate spring of mine been stolen by you? Why don't you give it back to me quickly?
I."
"Oh, this slave is obviously Old Taijun's Spring, but Old Taijun can't recognize it, and still asks this slave for help, this slave is going to be sad..." Chunchang held her chest very cooperatively, and started acting with Old Taijun Gu Qingling.
Come.
For a moment, the room was filled with the laughter of the master and the servant.
Now that Uncle Yao was preparing to end his career next year, Gu Qingling took the initiative to take over the job at Yao's Bookstore and let him concentrate on preparing for the exam. Not only him, but also the Second Master Yao and the Third Master Yao were also hired by Gu Qingling. Her reason was simple:
"As the saying goes, brothers working together are more powerful than gold. Since your eldest brother is going to take the imperial examination next year, you should go together."
Second Master Yao was dumbfounded on the spot: "Ah?! Mom, are you kidding me? I'm not good at studying, and you actually asked me to take the imperial examination?!"
Yao Sanye on the side had a horrified face:?!
Gu Qingling looked at him calmly and said, "Are you missing one arm or one leg compared to your brother? Your brother can take the test, why can't you?"
"My son has not been good at studying since he was a child..."
"Who is the material for studying? You have never done it, how do you know you are not good?" Gu Qingling interrupted Yao Erye and said, "Besides, I didn't let you take the top prize, as long as you end up, no matter if you are a candidate
, Scholar, or Tongsheng, as long as you pass the exam, it will be fine."
"Mom, those things are not leeks in the field. You can cut them if you can. Do you really think that fame is so easy to get? If it were so easy, there wouldn't be such a failure in the world..." Yao
The second master was so anxious that he quickly spoke up and wanted to reason with Gu Qingling.
Unfortunately, he seems to have forgotten that his mother is usually quite reasonable, but sometimes...
hehe!
When did his mother ever speak reason when she became overbearing?
No, no matter what he said, Gu Qingling just wouldn't let go, insisting on forcing him to end up with Uncle Yao. It doesn't matter if he doesn't pass the exam next year, just think of it as gaining experience, and the year after that, and the year after that...
After taking the exam for a few more years, we will know whether he is suitable for taking the imperial examination.
Yao Erye, who wanted to argue but still couldn't win: "..."
——Mom, are you afraid that you want me to die in the exam hall?!
——It’s so good, why did the old lady suddenly ask them to take the imperial examination?
After dealing with Second Master Yao, Gu Qingling raised her chin slightly and looked at Third Master Yao: "What about you?"
Third Master Yao was not Second Master Yao, so how could he dare to refute it? He came to his senses and agreed honestly.
When Mr. Yao saw him like this, he became even more angry: "Do you have any brains? You should do anything? You don't even look at what this is. This is not a good thing..."
"Why isn't this a good thing?" Gu Qingling was a little speechless, "If you can get some results in the exam, who is better, me or you? I'm a lot older, and I might go there when. In the final analysis, can I
If you pass the exam, what grades you can get will not be a matter for you brothers from now on?"
"No, mother, that's not what I meant. I mean...the problem is, we are really not meant to study."
"It doesn't matter if the cat is black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat. If you don't try, how will you know whether you are a black cat or a white cat?" Gu Qingling smiled.
"I am..." Mr. Yao almost said that he was either a black cat or a white cat, just a cat that couldn't catch mice.
——Bah, bah, bah!
——How can he, a dignified person, be compared with a cat?
——No, he means that cats are livestock, can they compare with him?
Fortunately, Gu Qingling didn't know what he was thinking, otherwise she would have stabbed him: "Do you think you are better than Zhu Sheng? Zhu Xiu can catch a mouse for me, and even if you can't study in the imperial examination, why don't you give it to me?"
what?"
I believe that if Mr. Yao heard this, he would only vomit blood even more.
Fortunately, Gu Qingling didn't know about his psychological activities and had no chance to say these words, and Mr. Yao was spared a heart-wrenching opportunity.
Regarding the preparations for the imperial examination, Gu Qingling spoke out her arrangements.
This year is the first year that the Yao family has arrived in Jinling. According to the usual practice in previous years, there will be a lot of excitement in the house. However, according to Gu Qingling's wishes, they turned the Yao family in Jinling upside down just after they arrived. It is already very eye-catching. Those who celebrate the New Year
Forget about events, parties and the like, it's better to keep a low profile.
If anything, Mrs. Yao, Mrs. Yao and Mrs. Yao can already represent the Yao family. As for Uncle Yao, Mr. Yao and Mr. Yao, they should just stay in the house and prepare for the exam.
Second Master Yao looked at the exam preparation plan that Gu Qingling took out, and his eyes widened. He took a look and saw that his mother had asked the three brothers to read a lot of books and do exercises. After all, the future
They have to stay in the study for three or four months and don't want to relax anymore.
"Mom, are you... are you planning to lock us up at home?!" Second Master Yao shouted, "I will go crazy!"
"Then we'll wait until you go crazy." Gu Qingling asked her maid Chun Qian to hand over the exam preparation plan to the three brothers, and also sent an old woman to supervise them, saying that they would start tomorrow.
This simply didn't give Mr. Yao any chance to react and just started directly. Mr. Yao collapsed: "Starting tomorrow?! Don't you need to discuss this with your sons first?!"
Gu Qingling blinked innocently: "Didn't we discuss it?"
"Who did you discuss it with? When did you discuss it? Why didn't I know?"
"With your elder brother." Gu Qingling pointed at Uncle Yao and said that she had already discussed it with him a few days ago when Uncle Yao came to her and told her that he wanted to end the matter.
Mr. Yao's eyes widened and he gritted his teeth angrily: "It's you?! I'm telling you, how come my good mother suddenly wants me to take the imperial examination, but it's you who caused it——"
