By the time Gu Chengyu used Qinggong to rush home, it was already Shenshijie. Gu Chengyu roughly calculated and found that it took him about a moment to get from the town to the village. This was indeed much faster than an ox cart, and even faster than a horse-drawn carriage.
, it seems that Qinggong should be used for traveling, even though he was very tired.
The Gu family's dining table is considered to be the best in the whole village, of course, it can't be compared with Mr. Zhao's family. Today's dinner is white porridge, multi-grain pancakes, cabbage stew, and scrambled eggs. Nowadays, the Gu family's eggs are no longer sold.
, but after raising so many chickens and producing many eggs, I kept them all for my own consumption. Eggs are no longer a rarity.
"There are three months left for the exam. What do you think? Xiaobao will definitely end up next year. Do you two want to end up?" After saying that, Mr. Gu took a sip of the porridge and added
Swallow the porridge in your mouth.
Gu Chengli didn't expect that Mr. Gu would bring up this matter. In fact, he didn't know how Dalang was doing. He also asked, but Dalang was hesitant and couldn't give an accurate answer. He just felt that Dalang Xu
Is it possible? Just like this, Dalang can still take the exam?
Gu Chengyi frowned. He had already asked his master. He said that Erlang still had some aura and was considered hardworking. If he studied for a few more years, there was still some hope of passing the exam. But Sanlang was about to be worse. Sanlang's thoughts
It doesn't seem to be on.
"Dad! Even the young master from a wealthy family didn't take the exam after studying for two or three years, right? Is it too early to take the exam now? Lao Wu's wife is so famous, isn't she still twenty?
How old do you have to be to be admitted as a scholar?"
Gu Chengyi mainly wants to fight for Erlang for a few years. If Sanlang doesn't like it, it doesn't matter if he doesn't read! But wouldn't it be a pity that Erlang doesn't read? He can see that Erlang is the most like him. He has a smart mind and knows what he wants. With Erlang
In comparison, Saburo is far behind, and his understanding is also much worse.
"Where's the boss? What do you say?" In fact, the Gu family's life is better now. It doesn't matter if the children study for a few more years. I said that at the beginning because the family didn't have much money and was afraid that they wouldn't be able to provide for it.
"Dad! I don't know either, so let's ask Dalang! How he studied, only he knows." Gu Chengli felt a little conflicted in his heart. He also hoped that Dalang would study again. He knew that Dalang was not a good student.
, but what can we tell from these two years? It would be better to study for three more years. If you really fail the exam then, it would be good to come back and help the family.
Dad Gu looked at Dalang again, "Dalang! What did you say?"
Dalang was a little flustered when he saw everyone in the Gu family staring at him, "I don't know either." He didn't dare to take the exam, but he was hesitant about whether to continue studying. If not, what could he do?
"Dad! Da Lang is still a little kid, what can he know? According to me, it will be difficult to pass the exam if he only studies this book for two or three years. I want Er Lang to study for a few more years."
Gu Chengyi would not let go of this opportunity. He sneered inwardly about Lao Wu taking the exam. He thought he was a child prodigy just because he praised him a few times? He had only studied for three years and wanted to take the exam. He wanted to pass the exam.
It's just wishful thinking. But he won't say it out loud, so just take the exam! If he fails the exam, it depends on how embarrassed his mother is to show off at home, as if her son is the only smart one in the world.
"How are you doing in private school? I believe you know it yourself. Our family is not that rich and we cannot let you continue studying. Is there anyone who wants to end this year?" Mr. Gu finished the food in his bowl.
Porridge, I put down my chopsticks.
Lu was silent on the side. It was the top priority of the family. If she went too far, the old man wouldn't give her a good look. Even her eldest brother-in-law wouldn't be able to spare her if she stopped the children and grandchildren of the Gu family from getting ahead.
"Master! I want to end it!" Erlang saw that Father Gu had never promised his father, and thought that Father Gu would not allow them to continue reading. He wanted to give it a try. And he thought that he was no slower in learning than his uncle, which made no sense.
My uncle can go, but he can't.
"Erlang! What are you talking about? If you want to study for two or three more years, wouldn't you be more confident?" Gu Chengyi was startled by Erlang's words. He would rather let Erlang wait for another three years. The outcome this time was too risky. He
No, but I also know that it is not easy to be a scholar.
"Dad! I've thought about it. I'm going to give it a try. If I don't succeed, I'll take the test again next time." In fact, he wanted to see how he was worse than his uncle. Couldn't his uncle just be able to endorse? He went back every day.
They stayed in the house secretly and read at night, just to catch up with him. He didn't believe that his uncle could be any better than him.
Gu Chengyi was a little silent. In fact, he also had a hope in his heart. What if he really passed? There would be no disadvantage in the end. Anyway, you can take the exam again in three years. If you fail, it is good to go and experience it.
"Erlang! You have to think about it. If you really want to go, I won't stop you. If you don't want to go, I can let you study for another three years. Isn't this more reliable?" Father Gu doesn't want to delay his grandson.
Erlang was the most promising among his grandchildren, so he would naturally let him continue reading.
After hearing this, Erlang was a little hesitant. But in the end, he made up his mind. "Master! I still want to give it a try!"
Ji'an Erlang, Gu's father, had already decided not to ask any more questions. He just turned around and asked the other two grandsons to see what their plans were.
Dalang hadn't figured out what he could do yet, so he just said he wanted to continue reading. Sanlang was young and confused about the future. He looked at his father, only to find that his father was fully focused on his second brother.
, not caring whether he wanted to continue reading or not, he was a little frustrated.
"Master! I still don't want to study anymore, I want to learn business!" Sanlang thought for a moment, then looked at Father Gu firmly and said.
Gu Chengyu was a little surprised. He knew that Sanlang was not interested, but he didn't expect him to be so straightforward.
Father Gu was also surprised, "Sanlang! Have you really thought about it? If you want to study, my family will support you for another three years." The two grandsons are still studying, so there is no reason that the younger grandson cannot study.
Seeing this, Gu Chengyi hurriedly stepped forward to stop him. This Sanlang was also stupid. Since his father was relieved, why didn't he read it? Did he want to come back and dig food in the fields? Isn't it better than working in the fields? This fool.
"Sanlang! What do you know, you little kid? Being able to get ahead is a good thing that many people can't even think of." He saw that Sanlang was also stupid because he gave up on such a good opportunity.
"Yes! Saburo! Don't be stupid! Didn't your father say that? The family can still afford it."
When He heard that Sanlang was giving up, he became anxious. Erlang and his father had never been very close to his mother. Only Sanlang could think of her no matter what he had to eat. Her husband didn't care about Sanlang, but she couldn't look at her.
Chusaburo was ruined and will be a fool for the rest of his life. As for wanting to do business, this has long been ignored by them. Business requires capital. Can the family agree?
It turns out that since then, my father has cared more about his second brother than him. He has only asked about his current situation. He knows that he is not as smart as his second brother, nor as sweet-tongued as his second brother, who can please his father and mother.
