After Gong Yaozu entered the door, he first gave a big gift to Uncle Gong Jian, and then said: "Dad, my son is unfilial and cannot be filial at home. Today I am going to the town to continue studying, and I hope you will spend more time at home."
Take care of yourself.”
When he saw his youngest son saluting him and Gong Yaozu looking gentle and elegant, Uncle Gong Jian was extremely satisfied, as you can see from the sincere smile on his face.
Uncle Gong Jian hurriedly stretched out his hand to help his younger son up, and said, "Okay, okay, okay, you can study hard and you will be the greatest filial piety to me." As he said that, he took out the one from his arms and it was already there.
With his body temperature in his purse, he reached out and handed it to Gong Yaozu, "Son, you also know the situation at home. It is different from the past. You have to spend the money carefully. Good steel is used on the blade. Remember to give me the news as soon as possible.
My parents are coming back to deliver the letter."
Gong Yaozu just took the purse and weighed it in his hand, and he knew how much money was in the purse. He was very unhappy. His father was becoming more and more stingy, so he gave him such a small amount of money.
, How should I get around in the town? If I get to the top, I won’t even have enough money to play a few games. But on the surface, he still looks respectful and nods to everything Uncle Gong Jian said.
It should be that he looks very obedient and well-behaved.
Auntie Gong Jian next to her could not understand the content of the conversation between the father and son. She only knew that her youngest son was leaving home and her side again to go to school in the town. And this time, her youngest son was leaving home and her side to study in the town.
The injuries on her body were not completely healed yet, which made her worried. At this time, she was standing next to her, her eyes were a little moist, and she couldn't help but pick up her sleeves and start wiping the corners of her eyes.
The father and son over there obviously saw Uncle Gong Jian's actions, but they didn't say anything. Gong Yaozu even turned around, walked out of the room, and quickly left the yard of his house. This
This moment he had been looking forward to for months. He couldn't wait and rushed towards the vast and free sky.
On this side, when her son left the house without hesitation, Aunt Gong Jian broke down and cried.
Seeing her like this, Uncle Gong Jian raised his hand patiently and threw the pillow on the bed on Uncle Gong Jian's body, "Cry, why are you crying? What are you crying about? My son goes to school.
This is a good thing, you have nothing to cry about."
Being hit by the pillow, Aunt Gong Jian forgot to cry. She hurriedly reached out to pick up the pillow and carefully put it back on the bed, still trying to distinguish for herself: "That's not it, Yaozu.
He was injured this time, and I was just worried about him. He left like that, so I felt a little uncomfortable."
As she made the distinction, Uncle Gong Jian became even more angry, "Why are you so uncomfortable? Yaozu is here to do business."
In Uncle Gong Jian's mind, Gong Yaozu's trip this time was not about business. Now, the business he was talking about did not mean that Gong Yaozu had to study hard and then take part in the imperial examination and become an official.
Go to the town and find out the address of Gong Jian's family. I don't know since when, in Uncle Gong Jian's heart, being able to stay close to Gong Jian's family was more important than his younger son becoming an official in the imperial examination.
Of course, Aunt Gong Jian didn't know what the business was that her man was talking about. She thought that her man was referring to her youngest son Yaozu's studies. So she quickly wiped away the tears on her face, not daring to continue.
After speaking, I just hope in my heart that my youngest son Yaozu will be healthy and smooth.
In the following days, Uncle Gong Jian's injured ankle finally improved. He is now able to walk around. Although his ankle will hurt if he walks too much, it is no longer difficult for him to walk a short distance. Therefore, every day
The idle couple now began to go out to chat with people during the day.
Although such days are the same as usual, in Uncle Gong Jian's heart, he is always looking forward to the news that his youngest son Gong Yaozu can come back and has found the new address of Gong Jian's family. So even every day he goes out as usual to find some
He was chatting or wandering around the house, but he knew in his heart that he was always expecting news to come to his door.
But Uncle Gong Jian's expectations were destined to come to nothing. Before he could hear the news from his younger son, the latest news that reached the village was that Gong Jian had become a scholar.
At this time, the village suddenly became lively, and everyone was talking about this incident. Every day, when Uncle Gong Jian and his wife went out, the name they heard the most was Gong Jian.
The people in the village are beaming with joy every day, as if Gong Jian still lives in their village. This scholar is a new business card in their village. Yes, in front of those in other villages, the villagers are very proud.
Show off.
You know, it has been decades since dozens of villages around here have produced a scholar. Now, it is not a joyful thing for a young man in his village to become a scholar.
Although the scholar no longer lives in the village, this does not prevent them from mentioning their village. They always say that this year's scholar Gong Jian is from our village.
If there was anyone in this village who did not feel any joy after hearing the news, but was instead very depressed, it was Uncle Gong Jian and his wife. They never thought that their youngest son would die due to various reasons.
He couldn't even take the Tongsheng exam, but the son of his brother's family, whom they had always thought was worthless and didn't like, suddenly became a scholar.
This couple, who always thought they were superior, was really unbearable. Therefore, in the past two days, the couple was no longer in the mood to go out and chat with the villagers. Now when they go out, the village is full of people chatting.
It was all Gong Jian. Everyone was talking about how outstanding and powerful the young man Gong Jian was. But when they thought that this man was their brother's son, how could Uncle Gong Jian and his wife be happy?
His brother, who was like a piece of wood and could only work hard and couldn't even speak, actually raised a son who could pass the examination as a scholar. This made Uncle Gong Jian very unhappy. Most importantly, his younger son Lian
The two children had never passed the examination. Considering the situation, it was strange that the two of them were happy.
Even if other people in the village were admitted as scholars, Uncle Gong Jian and his wife would not be so depressed. (To be continued)
