Although Zhao Rong was curious about Brother Gong, it was not very strong. The reason why he brought up this topic was because Gong Yu seemed to be happy to mention his brother.
Just looking at the way Gong Yu's eyes glowed when he mentioned his eldest brother, Zhao Rong felt happy when he saw it, as if no one else except himself had seen Gong Yu's rare appearance.
Let a feeling of joy rise in his heart.
Hearing Zhao Rong's inquiry, Gong Yu answered his question with great interest. On the contrary, he ignored that Zhao Rong's title for him had changed from Gong Er Ge to Er Ge. The relationship between the two seemed to be
With the change of name, we got a lot closer.
But at this time, Gong Yu was completely unaware of this. Instead, he started talking to Zhao Rong with great interest about how amazing his eldest brother was.
"That's right, little brother, you don't know how powerful my eldest brother is. He just suddenly decided to take part in the imperial examination at the beginning of this year, and from the moment he made up his mind, he devoted himself to studying
Among them. If it were not necessary to maintain basic physiological needs, I think my eldest brother would basically forget to eat or sleep, and would devote himself wholeheartedly to those boring books."
Mentioning the months when Gong Jian studied hard, Gong Yu seemed to have remembered something terrible. He carefully described to his little brother that those months were a great time for their family.
A day of heightened stress.
"During that time, we didn't know what time my eldest brother went to bed or when he got up. Anyway, almost no one could see him at home, and the lights in the study were even brighter.
It's on from morning to night. We don't dare to disturb my elder brother's study.
Three meals a day are served on time and left at the door of the study. Sometimes, the eldest brother will forget to eat, and we have to urge him again and again before we can see him finishing the meals in a hurry. As for sleeping, we don't even have time to do it.
People can guarantee and urge him to sleep every day."
During that time, Gong Jian had been immersed in studying and saw no one in the study. It was only when his family urged him to eat that he could see him by chance. At other times, it was difficult for anyone to see Gong Jian.
figure. Of course, this period of time is still very short.
"After this period of hard study, the eldest brother began to go out every day. Every morning before dawn, the eldest brother had already gone out. He would not go home until the sky was full of stars and it was very late.
"
Hearing Gong Yu's description, Zhao Rong couldn't help but feel a little strange.
At first, Gong Yu said that his eldest brother was studying hard at home, which Zhao Rong could understand. After all, in his opinion, generally talented people who studied hard for ten years could probably become a scholar.
But according to Gong Yu’s introduction, his eldest brother was just in a private school.
He has studied in middle school for less than a year. So, in addition to his amazing talent, this eldest brother can be admitted as a scholar at such a young age. He must also have worked hard. So for what Gong Yu said, he
The eldest brother is studying hard at home, which Zhao Rong understands very well.
But later on, Gong Yu changed the subject and said that Gong Jian went out every day, leaving early and returning late. Zhao Rong was a little unclear. Since he had doubts in his mind, he asked directly: "Second brother, eldest brother Gong
What are you going to do when you leave early and come back late every day? Is it to visit a famous teacher?"
In Zhao Rong's view, listening to Gong Yu's description just now, it must have happened this year. Just a few months before the scholar examination, Gong Jian decided to take the scientific examination. And Gong Yu also introduced that he
The eldest brother is still very good at studying, so it will definitely be easy for Gong Jian to pass the boy examination.
Next, Gong Jian studied so hard for the scholar examination. Instead of studying hard at home, he had to go out every day. When Zhao Rong wanted to come, the only reason was to visit famous teachers for guidance.
But this time he guessed wrong again. Gong Yu shook his head and answered his doubts, "No, my eldest brother leaves early and comes home late. He goes to the county school every day to check the test papers of previous years' imperial examinations."
At this time, Zhao Rong finally solved his doubts. At the same time, his admiration for Gong Jian rose in his heart. Why hadn't he thought about it before? Checking the test papers of previous years was indeed a good way. Not only
You can analyze your own level based on the content of student test papers from previous years, and you can even learn from other people's test papers as your own experience.
Gong Jian's move, even Zhao Rong couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this elder brother Gong is indeed smart, he has found such a good method.
Although Zhao Rong knew from what Gong Yu said before that the words coming out of his second brother's mouth were naturally without water. Therefore, he had a rough impression of Gong Jian early on, and now
, after hearing how Gong Jian prepared for the exam, the impression of Gong Jian gradually became fuller in his mind.
Thinking of the Juren Examination in a few days, Zhao Rong couldn't help but said: "Second brother, since Brother Gong is so good, I have seen the Juren Examination in a few days, and Brother Gong must be on the list. It just so happens that you don't plan to go these days.
If you bother me, Brother Gong, you can accompany me to have fun in the provincial capital."
Although he was surprised by Gong Jian's diligence and intelligence, the most important thing in Zhao Rong's heart was the second brother who cared for him so much. So soon, as soon as he changed the topic, he was already talking about it again.
Returning to the previous topic of travel, he once again strongly requested Gong Yu to accompany him to travel in the provincial capital in the past few days.
Gong Yu was not unaware of Zhao Rong's little thoughts, but he had no resistance from the bottom of his heart to this little brother who had just met these little brothers. Therefore, he proposed that he accompany him to play in the provincial capital.
Of course, Gong Yu would not refuse the matter.
"Of course that's no problem, little brother. In the past few days, I will take you to the places I have visited before. After walking around, if there is still time, the two of us will find a place in the provincial capital together.
It would also be a good idea to find out if there are any other interesting places. Didn’t we agree before? We will probably leave at this time in the past few days. I think a few days will be enough for us to visit the provincial capital.
"
Hearing Gong Yu's promise again about the schedule for the past few days, Zhao Rong's heart was filled with joy and pride. But just when he was filled with joy, an uncoordinated voice sounded next to him. (To be continued)
