Chapter 1311 I rely on the imperial examination to get ahead and become a frontier official (18)
However, Mr. Pu's expression was very strange.
Everyone knows that it was Gu Mo who rehabilitated the Qu family, but everyone only thought that Gu was once a servant of the Qu family, so they naturally blamed Qu Ruochu for rehabilitating the Qu family and praised her as a hero. In fact, she
Just sit back and enjoy the results.
It’s okay for others to praise her without knowing it. Doesn’t she have no self-knowledge herself?
"Mr. Pu, I took the liberty to come here this time because I want to talk to you about my servant Gu Mo..."
Qu Ruochu took a deep breath and said, "Wan Sheng knows that as a scholar, you shouldn't talk about people behind their backs, but this person is ungrateful and an out-and-out villain. I don't want my husband to be deceived by this person and regret it in the future.
…”
Qu Ruochu had just counted a few of Gu Mo's crimes in detail, when unexpectedly Gu Mo came, but only glanced at Qu Ruochu and said to Mr. Pu:
"Sir, the scenery over there is better, but the road is a bit difficult. Please help me, student."
Mr. Pu nodded.
When Qu Ruochu saw Gu Mo coming, she urged her husband to leave. She thought that Gu Mo was guilty and was afraid that she would expose her hypocrisy and her husband would know about it.
"Gu Mo! Why are you anxious? What are you panicking about? What? Are you afraid that your husband will know what you have done before?"
Gu Mo said with a smile: "Sir, what's the problem if you know? What I do is worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, worthy of good customs and morals, and I am worthy of my heart."
When Qu Ruochu wanted to say something else, Mr. Pu said: "I'm afraid you have misunderstood. Gu Mo did not come to be your disciple in the name of your qu master. A qu master is not enough for me to decide whether to accept him or not. I
What matters is always a person’s moral character and talent.”
Mr. Pu is also good at recognizing people, and she can see that Gu Mo has a bright future.
Now Gu Mo was still a fledgling and needed his help, and he needed a promising disciple like Gu Mo, so they hit it off.
Of course, that person can also be Qu Ruochu, as long as Qu Ruochu has the ability.
But the question is, does Qu Ruochu have what it takes?
It can be seen from the redress of the Qu family that this is a woman who likes to sit back and enjoy her success but does not know what gratitude is.
Mr. Pu ignored Qu Ruochu and left with Gu Mo.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Qu came to see Mr. Pu on his own, but he was humiliating himself. When he went back, he got angry again and scolded Gu Gu Gu.
Butler Gu felt very guilty and began to feel that he could not live up to the old head of the Qu family and that he was a sinner.
She must do something to save it.
So, she went to find Gu Mo.
Gu Mo's attitude was gentle, "What does mother want from me?"
Butler Gu hesitated and finally explained his purpose.
"Xiao Mo, this level of connections in the Pu family is very important for the head of the family to revive the Qu family. Can you help the head of the family?"
Gu Mo raised his eyebrows, "How can mother help me?"
"Xiao Mo, please feel aggrieved and give up your position as Mr. Pu's disciple to the head of the family."
"Mother, do you think too highly of yourself?"
"What did you say?"
Gu Mo said: "The only person who can make the decision in this matter is Mr. Pu. Whoever he decides to accept is qualified to become his closed disciple. No matter you, me or Qu Ruochu, no one can make this decision. You asked me to let
Give her, I gave her up, do you think Mr. Pu will want her?"
Butler Gu suddenly realized that this was indeed the case.
"Then you go and beg Mr. Pu to accept the head of the family, both of them."
Gu Mo said nothing and only looked at Gu Gu Gu.
Butler Gu was a little weak, "You, what are you looking at me for? Tell me, are you willing to help?"
"I don't want to."
She and Mr. Pu said they were master and apprentice, but in fact they were using each other.
But now she is soft-spoken and is at a disadvantage in this transaction relationship. Mr. Pu can abandon her as a pawn at any time.
Gu Mo does not have to rely on Mr. Pu, but she must not offend Mr. Pu. She must lay the foundation for her entry into the officialdom.
Because she clearly knew that after becoming an official, she might do something distasteful. She didn't have many backers, and people had knifes to her neck. She was probably still in the dark.
Her straightforward refusal made Gu Gu Gu's housekeeper unable to recover.
"What did you say."
"I said I didn't want to, mother."
"You unfilial daughter, aren't you afraid that others will know that you are unkind and unfilial?"
"How could I be unkind and unfilial? Mother, everything depends on evidence. I am not a white person now. If you cannot provide evidence for any of your accusations, it is a frame-up. And the accusations you so-called about me being unkind and unfilial are just your own.
I think that in the eyes of others, even in the eyes of morality and etiquette, I have done nothing wrong. It is just your harsh criticism of me. People in the world are not fools. They can distinguish basic right from wrong."
After saying this, Gu Mo turned around and left.
Butler Gu was angry and anxious. He didn't know what to think, so he went to find Gu Mo's teacher in the Imperial College.
She didn't know what she wanted to achieve. She only knew that Gu Mo was no longer obedient, which gave her an unprecedented sense of panic.
The Imperial Academy teacher liked Gu Mo, a diligent and motivated student. When he heard that she was Gu Mo's mother, he immediately went to see her, wanting to see what kind of mother could teach a child like Gu Mo.
After meeting each other, Gu Gu Gu, the housekeeper, began to sigh.
"That kid used to look very honest and responsible, but I don't know what happened in these years. It seems that his personality has changed. He has forgotten his duties and is obsessed with taking the exam. He talks about being a master.
Is that what we should be wishing for?"
The Imperial Academy teacher's face was full of black questions, "Why can't you have wishful thinking? Who doesn't want to be a master? Isn't it a good thing that your daughter is eager to learn and make progress, and brings honor to your family? Or do you hope that your children and grandchildren will do it for others in the future?
A servant serving others?"
After saying that, the Imperial Academy teacher continued: "If I had a daughter like this, I would wake up laughing in my dreams. How could I complain that she is too ambitious?"
Housekeeper Gu was immediately embarrassed by the Imperial College teacher's words, as if she was some short-sighted man.
"If she relies on her hard work to make progress and become a good person, I will be happy, but she spends her time on making tricks. It's really..."
"Who said that Gu Mo's thoughts are spent on finding tricks? Do you know how hard she works? At night, other students have gone to bed, and she is still staying up late reading and writing. In the early morning, the rooster has not yet crow, and other students are still
In her sleep, she had already gotten up early, lit a candle and started studying early. Perhaps she was not as good as
Some students' talents and conditions are not as good as those of girls from aristocratic families, but no one can match her hard work. Diligence can make up for weakness. She is willing to endure hardships and has perseverance. Her efforts are seen by others like you. As a result, you, my biological son,
Mother, do you regard everything she has gained through hard work as a trick?"
