Chapter 162 The Male Protagonist’s Best Mother (Forty-nine) Please vote for me at the end of the month
Madam Wan just ran to tell Mrs. Gu that Xinzhi County had no rules and actually doted on concubines and destroyed their wives.
As for Mrs. Gu, she went to fawn over her concubine, Aunt Xue.
Yes, the county magistrate is powerful, and if you want to please him, you have to start with his favored concubines.
But a concubine is a concubine.
As for Mrs. Gu, she is a legitimate wife and a virtuous woman praised by the court.
But she got together with a despicable, unruly concubine, and even fawned over her!
For such a big drug store, I gave half of it to Aunt Xue.
Fortunately, although Xinzhi County is a little stupid, it is not stupid enough.
Knowing that he was new here and that the Gu family had a good reputation, he turned around and asked Aunt Xue to give him some money, so he could buy half of the shares.
Well, it's one-third of the market price.
I saw that in the queue accompanying Zhao Qingyun, there was actually a junior from the Gu family.
They cried and made a fuss, insisting that Zhao Xiaoxiucai, who was studying, withdraw from the county school and go to a Taoist temple in the next county.
Heyin County is not big, so if there is something new, it will spread to everyone in an instant.
Later, Madam Gu sold the drug store at a low price.
You can move forward or back. The more Aunt Xue thought about it, the more satisfied she became.
The Zhao family and the Gu family both sent people to escort him to Fucheng for the exam.
Aunt Xue sneered secretly: If you do bad things with good intentions, can you be forgiven?
“It’s not about opening a martial arts gym, but it’s about being coaxed by neighbors into buying shares!”
The great Confucian cherishes talent more than he loves talent, so he immediately accepted Zhao Qingyun as his closed disciple!
Gu Qingcheng: ...I really didn’t plan this!
All I can say is that Zhao Qingyun is worthy of being a male protagonist, and there are adventures wherever he goes.
When encountering a good idea, investing in advance is a way for many successful people to achieve further success.
Seizing the opportunity, I tried every means to support my parents-in-law.
After taking office in Xinzhi County, I met Zhao Qingyun alone when I went to the county to study.
Doting on concubines and destroying wives is not only a bad family tradition, the key is that they are too stupid!
After all, her daughter is the legitimate wife, and etiquette protects the interests of the legitimate wife and legitimate son.
When Xinzhi County looked at Zhao Qingyun, he seemed to be looking at his son-in-law with some affection.
Gu Qingcheng was guarding his youngest son, and he had several nieces and nephews from his mother's family and husband's family to take care of him. His life was quite comfortable.
Moreover, if you get engaged first, your family will have the initiative.
In the future, Zhao Qingyun will indeed be promising. If he can pass the examination, it will not be too late to get married.
He passed the national examination at the age of fifteen and was still ranked first in Jieyuan, ranking first in the entire Qizhou.
Buying knives, burying beggars lavishly, etc. are already in the old calendar.
When he becomes prosperous in the future, he will also be grateful for the "support" of the Yue family!
Aunt Xue's eldest daughter is eleven years old this year. Considering her age, she is just right for Zhao Qingyun.
"Bad things" are results. If the result is bad, then the whole thing is bad!
Having such a father-in-law will only hold you back.
Aunt Xue also knew that having an unreliable mother-in-law would definitely be a disaster for her daughter-in-law.
It's scary to think about having such an in-laws and a daughter having such a mother-in-law.
The turmoil of this matter has not yet passed, Gu Qingcheng made another cool move——
"What? Did Gu use the money from selling her medicine shop to open a martial arts gym?"
And to recruit talents, what could be more reliable than marriage.
And Zhao Qingyun also successfully disappeared in the county, and was no longer the young man who attracted attention from everyone (including Xinzhi County).
However, she never expected that Zhao Qingyun's mother was so unreliable.
No rules!
My master has said that Zhao Qingyun is a good young talent who can rise to the top without any support from others!
He is still a young scholar from a peasant background. His daughter is betrothed to him, and his family still marries at a low age.
As a result, Gu made such a fuss.
How will others view Zhao Qingyun when she makes such nonsense?
Madam Wan knows how difficult it is for orphans and widowed mothers. In the past, she was protected by Mrs. Cui, but now Gu wants to do the same thing and find Xinzhi County as her backer.
The young lady from Xinzhi County, Zhao Qingyun, would like to express my gratitude to you.
At the beginning, countless men would praise Mrs. Gu as a virtuous woman because she did not forget her past grudges and regarded her husband's family as one family, and tried her best to distance herself from her mother-in-law's family who were kind to her.
The latest joke in the Zhao family is that Mrs. Gu has heard some charlatan's nonsense somewhere and concluded that Zhao Xiaocai has had bad luck in the past two years and wants to go to a Taoist temple to avoid disaster.
But when Gu Qingcheng came, those people all flinched.
If you don't understand the rules and have no scruples, you will cause trouble at every turn.
What a prophecy!
A drug store that big cannot be saved.
How many families are optimistic about this child?
There are also some wealthy families who are vying to recruit Zhao Qingyun as their son-in-law.
I didn't expect that Mrs. Gu was so capable that she "lost all the money" casually.
Well done!
If Zhao Qingyun hurts Zhongyong and fails in repeated attempts, he can regret it.
Without money and no supporter, how can the Zhao family, orphans and widowers, survive?
Zhao Qingyun:...Who said my family only has a few hundred taels of silver?
Who said my grandma was stupid and did something stupid?
There's just something wrong with what he did.
The Zhao family must support their daughter.
Zhao Qingyun went to the Taoist temple and not only found a quiet environment for studying, but he also met a great scholar of the time who was meditating here.
Everyone in the county school, from teachers to students, cast sympathetic glances at Zhao Qingyun.
Confused, prodigal, and soft-eared.
Zhao Qingyun is indeed a potential stock, but his mother is unreliable.
Zhao Qingyun, who has turned fifteen years old, has grown into a handsome young man.
Just when Zhao Qingyun was thinking about how to reject Xinzhi County without incurring the resentment of Xinzhi County, his mother came with such a "double combo"!
Xinzhi County never summoned Zhao Qingyun alone again.
The Xinzhi County family has been in the county for a long time, and they have heard more "odd stories" about Mrs. Gu.
"...Zhao Xiaoxiucai, what a pity!"
"Tsk, tsk, Heyin County is so small, there are not many people practicing martial arts at all. Opening a martial arts gym, you can have a damn business."
This much money can completely support Zhao Qingyun to pass the examination.
"Haha, that's why I say she is confused. She just got a good reputation as a good wife and mother, and then she started to act nonsense!"
Aunt Xue bets that this is not the first time, nor the last time, that Gu has been so "confused".
The heart should be good.
His mother once again accurately "hit the right spot".
Occasionally, when I meet him, I will look at him with a pity look.
Soon, autumn is here, and a new round of rural examinations is about to begin.
"It has ruined Qingyun's reputation all my life."
Everyone knows that when the previous county magistrate leaves office, the Zhao family will lose their protection.
Subsequent facts also verified Wan Niangzi’s words——
If the mother-in-law is not good, no matter how good the son is, he cannot marry her!
Xinzhi County was a little hesitant: "Maybe Gu just wants to seek protection from our family."
At least you can still hear it!
Willing to be humble!
Jealousy, Zhao Qingyun can understand, he is a young talent, and he was admitted as a scholar at the age of twelve.
The person who announced the good news came to the back street of the academy with gongs and drums, and the frail Gu Qingcheng walked out and happily accepted everyone's congratulations.
But when it comes to her daughter, she still hopes that the man's family will abide by the rules.
Zhao Qingyun is the youngest scholar in the county and a junior student at the county school.
As a result, in just three years, Mr. Gu "revealed her true colors."
Huh, might as well throw away the moat.
Zhao Qingyun still has a childish face, but he can't seem to calm down, but his heart is already filled with joy——
When I passed the Jinshi exam, I was almost forty, an age where I could call myself "old"!
Aunt Xue shook her head repeatedly.
He will never allow anyone to cause damage.
Gu Qingcheng's series of coquettish actions completely confirmed her ridiculous and confused reputation.
Not only did he take his nephew and grandnephew to the county and keep them with his son, but he also raised his niece.
Even Aunt Xue was originally optimistic about Zhao Qingyun.
Invest in opening a martial arts gym for others?
Zhao Qingyun felt very clearly that Xinzhi County was jealous and admired him.
Originally, some wealthy businessmen wanted to invest in Zhao Qingyun in advance.
Although she is a favorite concubine, she is a vested interest in breaking the rules.
Two years have passed by in a flash.
The "appreciation" of Xinzhi County is easier to understand.
If it were anyone else, Aunt Xue only spent a few hundred taels of silver to buy such a big shop, and she would only be proud of it.
Grandma!
She, like those daughters-in-law who have not been raised well, is more devoted to her parents' family.
Although it was sold at a low price, there were still more than five hundred taels.
Jealousy is jealousy, but genius is genius.
A mediocre superior is naturally jealous of a talented young man.
The Gu family will definitely suffer a loss, but it is better than not losing a penny.
The days of fawning over concubines and being cheated out of money are slowly over.
But, you can go find your first wife, why bother with a concubine?
"Stupid! So stupid!"
The good news came, Zhao Qingyun refreshed history again——
But this person is the mother-in-law of her favorite son-in-law!
"You can't marry! With such a confused and confused mother-in-law, you absolutely can't marry."
The child is really kind, but it's a pity that the mother is too weird.
"That's right. I think it's the neighbor who is cunning. He has figured out that Mrs. Gu is a fool. He made ridiculous claims and deceived her."
The Zhao family's money and goods are all cheaper than those named Gu.
People in the county:...Is this still my mother? Does she know that it is important for her son to study?
Poor Zhao Qingyun, although he was not happy, due to his filial piety, he did not refuse. He actually packed his luggage and went straight to the Taoist temple with a few cousins.
Even Lady Wan herself would have wanted to marry her daughter to Zhao Qingyun if her husband had not been partial.
Everyone is discussing it in teahouses, restaurants, and on the streets.
Many people couldn't help but murmur: "Ms. Gu has also begun to eat up everything, and actually looks up to her mother's family like this."
People may not all have a love of talent, but they all have a "gambling" nature.
As for Xinzhi County, there are scholars in their twenties and juren in their thirties.
Zhao Qingyun has long had a clear goal and is working towards it steadily.
A lot of copper coins were scattered out like raindrops.
The Zheng family next door also came to share the good news. Sixteen-year-old Ji Keji was also on the list.
Although he is only the last one, he is still a serious candidate.
Unfortunately, he still suffered the disadvantage of being one year older, and his limelight was once again completely overshadowed by Zhao Qingyun.
The second youngest person to be elected?
The world will only remember the first, who will remember the second and third?
Even though Mr. Zheng comforted himself in every possible way, he couldn't help but mutter with soreness: Could it be that Zhao Qingyun came here specifically to conquer Ji Jiji?
Always give him the upper hand!
