Mrs. Gu's third wife, Mrs. Zhou, is checking her son Gu Fengbo's homework.
Gu Fengbo is a handsome and quiet young man with no family talent. He is said to be good at reading.
"Hello, sister-in-law." Seeing Mu Yunhan come in, he stepped forward and saluted, then left with his homework.
Mu Yunhan took a look at it and praised it when he saw that the handwriting was good.
Mr. Zhou smiled and said, "He is not as capable as his brothers, so he can only work hard in this area. If he can be lucky enough to gain fame, it can be regarded as bringing glory to the family."
The Gu family's boys can only be divided into two types: useful and useless.
The ones that are useful are those with bloodline talents like Gu Yilan and Gu Fenglin, or those with noble birth occupying the position of the eldest son, such as Mrs. Gu and Mr. Gu.
The useless ones are Master Gu San, Gu Fengbo and ordinary clan members who cannot inherit the family business. If they can get an official position, it will be considered useful.
Zhou usually did not fight or grab, and kept silent. Mu Yunhan always thought that she was peaceful and did not care about anything.
After listening to this sentence at this moment, I realized that it is not that we should not fight for right, but that we cannot fight.
"Studying is the right way. I have long heard that my third brother is smart and good at reading. It is all because of my good teachings from my third aunt."
Mu Yunhan followed Zhou's words with a few compliments and calmly turned the topic to the collection of books in Guhou's Mansion.
After all, the person who loves reading the most in Muhou Mansion is here.
Given Mr. Gu's passion for cultivating the virtues of his children, the book he snatched out was most likely to be given to Gu Fengbo for reading.
There is no one more suitable to inquire about relevant information than Gu Fengbo.
"To be honest, I also have a younger brother studying in my family. Unfortunately, my brother and I have been separated since childhood and we don't have any good books.
Every time I use it, I always feel that I am short of what I have. My third brother has been taught by a famous teacher since he was a child, and there are many books at home. I wonder if you can let me know what books he is reading?"
Mr. Zhou hesitated for a moment and then said with a smile: "The books he read are very complicated. I can't tell you what he read in a short while."
Mu Yunhan looked at her with wide eyes, pleading: "Third Aunt... please."
Zhou was slightly surprised, as if he didn't expect that she would act coquettishly with him.
Mu Yunhan begged again: "Third Aunt...if my younger brother can gain fame in the future, he will definitely never forget your kindness."
Mrs. Zhou laughed and said, "Girl, you are so soft and gentle. It makes my heart soften when you beg. I really can't bear to refuse you. I usually have to be so tough to make them angry. Why bother."
"Third aunt, please forgive me, there is nothing I can do about it."
Mu Yunhan lowered his head, full of helplessness, but in his heart he was surprised that Zhou, who usually kept silent, actually said this today.
"I can't tell you what it is. I asked Abo to tell you." Mrs. Zhou asked someone to call Gu Fengbo: "Tell your sister-in-law what books you usually read."
Gu Fengbo blushed slightly, lowered his head and said, "Let me write a reading list for my sister-in-law."
Mu Yunhan smiled and said: "That's great, but I've long heard that there are many books in the mansion. I wonder if I can take a look?"
Zhou's eyes flashed slightly, but Gu Fengbo said: "What's there? Sister-in-law, you can take a look if you want. I'll ask Wen Yin to accompany you."
Mu Yunhan unceremoniously followed the little book boy to the newly built Tibet.
The collection of books in the Tibetan library was still very rich. Mu Yunhan quickly flipped through it and saw that several books had traces of smoke and fire.
He put it down calmly and curled his lips: "You also said that besides the imperial palace, our family has the largest collection of books. Is that all?"
