"Junior brother, the prime minister is really capable of running a boat! In this way, everyone can put aside their old feud! If you don't want me to be the host this time, please go to a steamed bun shop on the street for breakfast! His steamed buns are second to none in the county!"
"Senior Brother Huang saw that Gu Chengyu didn't look angry, and he was easy to talk to, so he started to think about making friends.
The candidates who were waiting to watch the excitement were a little disappointed when they saw that they had cleared up all their previous differences and wanted to go out for dinner together. They thought they would start a fight! However, some people praised Gu Chengyu for his magnanimity and gentlemanly demeanor.
The candidate surnamed Qian secretly resented that this was really a waste of money. He didn't expect that he would have to be known as a gentleman now that he had gained the reputation of a talented scholar.
Look! If not tomorrow, this poem by Gu Chengyu will be widely recited. This time he will really gain both fame and fortune! And he will also be mentioned by others, but naturally there will be no good words. He is fulfilling others and giving
Others were used as a stepping stone, especially when he came to the door by himself. His intestines were almost green with regret at this moment!
"That's really unfortunate. We are not from Qinghe County. We have passed the county examination and plan to return today. Thank you two senior brothers for your kindness! Let's meet again at the government examination. Next time we meet, junior brother will definitely make a host for these two senior brothers.
Apologize." Gu Chengyu said as he cupped his hands apologetically.
In fact, Gu Chengyu didn't lie. Father Gu and the others had unanimously decided to go back in the afternoon. After all, the cost of staying in this inn for a night was quite high. After the exam, it was fine to stay in the county. It was better to go back earlier. It would be ten days before we left.
, Gu Chengyu really misses home!
"That's such a pity! We can only meet again at the imperial examination! Be careful along the way!" Senior Brother Huang's expression was sincere, as if we had been friends for many years and it was hard to say goodbye.
Gu Chengyu feels that Senior Brother Huang is very similar to Senior Brother You from the private school. They should be the same type of people and both like to work hard. Of course, this is not a bad thing. As long as the bottom line is not exceeded, the easiest way can be used to give himself more opportunities.
, then why not do it? It’s just that he and Senior Brother Huang are not familiar with each other, so it’s not easy to make a conclusion.
Gu Chengyu followed He Shunian and the others on the street. They planned to buy some novelty gadgets in the county town. Gu Chengyu also planned to bring something to his family and go to the Huichun Hall to say thank you!
Gu Chengyu discussed with them to meet at the inn when they had lunch, and he walked to a small corner, looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he took out a bag of tea leaves that had been wrapped long ago. The tea leaves were still from
It is picked from the tea trees in the space, and it is from old tea trees.
He learned the method in the book, stir-fried it himself, and tasted it. He found that the tea had a refreshing fragrance, and it actually had a refreshing effect after drinking it. It was much better than the Biluochun and Longjing teas.
Come out to give it away, I believe others will be amazed after drinking it.
"Brother Dongzi! Is shopkeeper Liu here?" Before Gu Chengyu arrived at the hospital, he saw Dongzi busy at the door.
"Is it Xiaobao? Have you finished the exam? Our shopkeeper is here! He just came back yesterday afternoon!" Dongzi was a little happy to see Gu Chengyu, but unfortunately he was working and couldn't entertain him.
Gu Chengyu heard before that he was going on the 5th or 6th day, but it has already been three days. Fortunately, he is back, otherwise he would have run away in vain.
Gu Chengyu was already an acquaintance, so all the medicine men in the main room knew him. They only said hello to him, and no one stopped him from entering the inner room.
"Uncle Liu! You are back from Fucheng!" Gu Chengyu knocked on the door and saw that shopkeeper Liu could open the door and said.
"It's Xiaobao! What? Have you finished the exam? You've become famous in the past two days! For such a young county case leader, everyone is rumoring that this time the county case leader is an eight-year-old baby, so I guessed it was you.
! It seems I was right about you!" Shopkeeper Liu smiled and asked Gu Chengyu to sit down and drink tea.
"Uncle Liu, you are making fun of me! I am also surprised to win first place. I can only say it is luck!"
"What? Are you so polite to Uncle Liu? We are already so familiar." Shopkeeper Liu knew that Gu Chengyu, a boy, would not take the exam if he was not completely sure, and he was very humble. Of course, that was for someone he didn't know well.
before.
"Haha! Okay! Then I rely on my strength!" Gu Chengyu joked with shopkeeper Liu.
"If you are admitted as a scholar, do you plan to study in the county?" Shopkeeper Liu asked Gu Chengyu's future plans.
"We haven't even taken the prefectural exam yet, so it's too early to talk about county school." Gu Chengyu hadn't thought so much yet.
"Are you worried that you won't be able to pass the exam? You are the head of the county case, how could you fail the government exam? If you come to the county, why not live here with me." Huichun Hall and the Gu family have been doing business together in the past few years, shopkeeper Liu and Gu Chengyu's family
We are already very familiar with him. Shopkeeper Liu has always been very optimistic about Gu Chengyu and has many connections.
"Thank you, Uncle Liu! I just want to study in the county, but I still plan to live in the county to study. Otherwise, I can just buy a house! After all, your family is open for business. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for me to live here!" Gu Chengyu declined.
How can you do whatever you want when you live in someone else's house?
"That's true! After all, there are people coming and going here, and they will also disturb you." Shopkeeper Liu also thought that he was not thinking carefully.
"Uncle Liu! The innkeeper Jiang refused to accept my money, saying that you paid for it. This really makes me embarrassed. I just want to help book a room, so why do I have the nerve to ask you to pay for it?"
"What? Are you still seeing me? Don't mention that money again!" Shopkeeper Jiang looked a little unhappy when he saw Gu Chengyu refuse.
"Thank you so much, Uncle Liu! This is wild tea that I picked from the mountains. I roasted it myself and brought it to you to try." Shopkeeper Liu has been taking good care of his family in the past few years, so he was willing to bring out this tea.
, although this tea was dug from Changling Mountain, it has been kept in space for so long, and it is no longer the original wild tea.
"Oh? Okay! In fact, wild tea tastes more fragrant, so I won't be polite!"
The two of them had almost finished chatting, and Gu Chengyu was about to stand up and say goodbye. He also wanted to go to the street to bring some gadgets to his family.
Gu Chengyu walked to West Street, where there were the most vendors setting up stalls, the shops were dotted here and there, and there were many fresh gadgets.
Looking at the shops on both sides of the street, he found that the rouge and gouache stalls were crowded with people, but they were all older girls and young wives. He didn't want to squeeze in. The stalls were always not as exquisite as the ones in the store.
After walking a few steps forward, he saw the "Guangqing Silver Building". Gu Chengyu planned to go in and take a look. His niece was also grown up at home, and as his uncle, he always wanted to bring something back when he came to the county town.
"This young master wants to buy jewelry?" As soon as Gu Chengyu stepped into the shop, a waiter came forward to guide him.
The waiter will not look down on everyone who comes in. Although this little kid is wearing a fine cotton robe, his movements and movements reveal a bookish air, so he must be a human being.
"What do you recommend to buy for the women at home? Get something that is affordable!" Gu Chengyu looked at the jewelry box on the table and saw that there were many kinds of jewelry. If you look carefully, it will inevitably cost a lot of money.
If you don't have much time, it's better to listen to the recommendations of these guys and see if there is anything suitable.
