"Madam, I specially sent my son to go to the countryside. That Gu Yi is quite sensible and took the initiative to change his household registration in Jingzhao Mansion."
Grandma Su asked her son to investigate the matter clearly, and then ran to Mrs. Li to report back.
"He also sold all the properties given to him by the Marquis Mansion and returned to his hometown with the money."
"After he returned home, he studied obediently. He said he wanted to be a scholar so that he could become a private school teacher in the countryside."
Aunt Su curled her lips, with obvious disdain in her eyes.
Scholar?
Humph, what is a scholar?
Sure enough, as soon as this person leaves the Hou Mansion, he becomes a lower class person.
Even if you pass the examination and become a Jinshi, you still have to start from a seventh-grade petty official.
As for their Zhou family, they are a dignified palace.
The Marquis was promoted in the Ministry of Industry and is now the Minister of the Ministry of Industry of the fourth rank.
The fourth rank of Beijing official is a height that those scholars may not be able to reach in their lifetime!
"It's good to be a private school teacher!"
However, Mrs. Li was very satisfied with Gu Yi's approach. This person really knew what was interesting and was not too ambitious.
As a farmer who has studied but is not very smart, it is a great idea to become a scholar and become a private school teacher.
If Gu Yi said that she wanted to take the Jinshi examination and become an official in the imperial examination, Li might have ridiculed her but also secretly felt vigilant.
What she wants is for Gu Yi to stay peacefully in the countryside, instead of running to the capital to be an eyesore!
Although what happened back then has been dealt with long ago.
However, no matter how careful the plan is, there may be oversights.
The position of Crown Prince of the Hou Mansion has been successfully passed into the hands of his own son Zhou Ren.
Everything in the Zhou family will also belong to their mother and son.
Mr. Li didn't want any setbacks.
"After all, he has been raised in the Hou Mansion for more than ten years and has been my son for so many years. It is somewhat of a fate."
Mrs. Li was thinking in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face.
She deliberately pretended to be kind and gentle, and said slowly, "In the future, send more people to look after me. If there is anyone who needs help, please help me!"
Aunt Su was not stupid, so she naturally understood what her master meant.
Although she felt that Gu Yi had nothing to worry about, as a qualified slave, her first priority was to be obedient on the first day!
"Yes! I have remembered it! Madam, don't worry, I will let the boy in the family go to the countryside more!"
…
Gu Yi returned to the countryside and picked up the textbook again.
Fortunately, when he left the Zhou family, he was not too "arrogant".
He took away all the things he used at Zhou's house, which amounted to three or four large boxes.
There are clothes, some purses, fan pendants, forehead wipes, jade pendants and other small items.
More of them are books.
There are four books and five classics, as well as classics of various saints.
Gu Yi would choose to take the things away shamelessly, which was also due to the blessing of "predictive dreams".
In the dream, his books were worth a lot of money.
When he really left the Zhou family and began to understand the sufferings of the people, Gu Yi realized that ordinary people valued a penny very much.
And those books cost just a few taels of silver, and ordinary farmers simply can’t afford them!
There are also some unique and rare copies that are even more valuable.
"Haha, I thought the properties given by the Marquis were valuable before, but I didn't know that the most valuable ones were actually these books!"
It’s true that “the book has its own golden house”.
Gu Yi secretly felt happy: Does this count as claiming "interest" from the Hou Mansion in advance?
It’s just this debt——
"Is Prince Zhou here?"
Just when Gu Yi gathered her thoughts and began to study hard, a voice sounded outside the door.
Zhou Shizi?
What a distant title.
Gu Yi put down her book and walked out on her own initiative.
His biological parents are very honest people who have never seen the world, so don't be frightened by this person.
"I'm Gu Yi!"
Gu Yi came out without being humble or overbearing, and happened to see a frail young man.
This man looks so familiar.
Seems to be--
"Han, Crown Prince Han?"
Gu Yi remembered, wasn't this person Han Ding, the eldest son of Cheng'en Palace?
He is also the good son-in-law that Mrs. Li is most proud of?
When Gu Yi left the capital, nothing happened to the Han family.
There was little information in the countryside, so Gu Yi didn't know that something major had happened to the Han family.
He looked at Han Ding with some caution, guessing the man's purpose.
"Gu Yi? You recognize your ancestor and return to your clan so quickly?"
Han Ding looked at the young man in front of him with some amusement.
When he accompanied the Zhou family to Guining, Han Ding met Zhou Yi, oh no, it was Gu Yi.
But at that time, Gu Yi looked at her hunched back and waist, feeling uneasy and inferior in her bones.
He seemed to be out of tune with the Hou Mansion.
How long had it been since we last saw each other? At this moment, Gu Yi raised her head and raised her chest, looking much more energetic.
Well, this should be a kind of confidence!
Gu Yi has found "belonging", and even though he is no longer rich, he is still proud and self-respecting.
This Gu Yi is quite interesting.
"..."
Gu Yi couldn't tell whether Han Ding's words were kind or malicious.
To be precise, he couldn't see through the person in front of him at all.
The dignitaries in the capital all said that the second young master of the Han family was cowardly, weak, incompetent in writing, and incompetent in martial arts. He was simply not as good as his concubine brother Han Nai.
However, Gu Yi met Han Ding twice. Each time, he felt that this man was very contradictory.
It gives people a more dangerous feeling.
Moreover, in his dream, he seemed to also dream about the Chengen Palace.
etc!
Cheng'en Palace?
Gu Yi hurriedly counted the time in her heart. It seemed that during the recent period, Han Nai had an accident. Han Yan, the Duke of Chengen, could not bear the pain of losing his son. His hair turned gray overnight and he also suffered a stroke.
Cheng'en Palace fell into decline overnight.
Fortunately, there is still Queen Han in the palace, and the Han family can barely maintain its basic dignity.
Later, Han Yan died and Han Ding became the new Duke of Chengen.
Later, it seems that the seventh prince, the least prominent among the princes, won the throne.
Empress Han became the Queen Mother.
In order to show his filial piety, the new emperor actually made Han Ding the Duke of Jingguo, which was not hereditary!
hold on!
Why doesn't this make sense?
Traditionally, the queen or the queen mother's father and brother must be granted the title of benefactor. This is already a blessing.
Why did Han Ding change from Duke Chengen to Duke Jingguo?
Is there something wrong with my dream?
Or what does Han Ding have——
Suddenly, a chill ran down Gu Yi's spine.
He seemed to have discovered something great.
Swallowing nervously, Gu Yi followed Han Ding's question and said unnaturally, "Yes, I am not a descendant of the Zhou family in the first place, and my biological parents have also found me, so I should recognize my ancestors and return home.
Zong.”
Han Ding's eyes flickered.
Naturally, Han Ding did not miss Gu Yi's sudden "fear".
What is this man afraid of?
Could it be that he also discovered something and is secretly investigating?
And Han Ding asked's sentence "Recognize your ancestors and return to your clan" just hit Gu Yi's mind?
No matter how smart Han Ding is, he never imagined that there are still people who can dream of the future.
He never expected that his "true face" had been seen through by Gu Yi!
He only thought that Gu Yi and he were "fellow-minded people" and both were investigating what happened at Baiyun Nunnery back then.
"What did you find out? Did you also know about the ten taels of silver? And that Aunt Feng, did you find it?"
Since they were all investigating, Han Ding didn't hide it and simply asked directly.
