The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 186 Lu Yang's Purpose

The old lady saw Gu Chengyu looking at them with a smile, so she took a piece and handed it to the old man. They haven't eaten since yesterday, but now they see food, and they can't even swallow their saliva. Children to take out.

The old lady took a bite carefully, and her mouth was filled with the coolness of mung beans. The cake was sweet, as if there was oil on it, and it was a bit oily in her hand, but it was not greasy at all when she ate it.He was really hungry, and the old man didn't know how to taste carefully, so he took two bites.

The plate of pastries was made by Gu Chengyu in his own shop, it was much more delicious than those made outside, and salted egg yolk was added inside.

"Slow down? Be careful of choking!" As soon as Gu Chengyu opened his mouth, the old lady shrank and stopped chewing.Maybe he was frightened, but he looked up and saw that Gu Chengyu was sitting across from him, and there was no displeasure on his face, so he started eating again.

Gu Chengyu looked at it for a moment, it was a conditioned reflex, maybe he was scolded a lot while eating, and that's why he made such a move.Then Lu Yang was simply insane, he beat and scolded his parents, this is not a normal person!
The two of them ate a piece and didn't do anything else. Gu Chengyu reckoned that the two of them were not full yet, but they were too embarrassed to eat any more.Gu Chengyu didn't persuade him to eat dinner later, and said that he ate less on weekdays, and the pastries were not easy to digest, so eating too much all of a sudden hurt his spleen and stomach.

"Grandma! How could uncle think of coming to the house to ask for money? But the family is in a difficult situation?" Whether he wants to or not, he still calls him uncle on the surface.

"The life at home is difficult, but it's not too bad. There are still three acres of fields at home! Save a little, and you can always live."

Gu Chengyu was surprised, this time it was not the old lady who spoke, but the old man who didn't like to talk.

"That's a difficult thing? Otherwise, why do you need so much money?" Gu Chengyu actually wanted to attract the old couple to talk. They were not familiar with each other, and they were afraid that they would not tell him.

"That bastard! I like to go to the gambling house in the town. Sometimes I won't come back for several days. I let him take out all the money at home to gamble. How can there be any money?"

The old man took a breath, and continued: "Originally, I came back without any money after losing, but for some reason last month, I lost the bet, and even borrowed money from the gambling shop in order to make money. It must be a trick If you don’t have any money, you can use gambling to lose more and more. You have already borrowed more than 50 taels. Isn’t that right? It's only a few days, if you can't make up the money, you will cut off his hand."

"You haven't heard about our family before?" Gu Chengyu was a little strange, it's been three years, why doesn't the Lu family know that the Gu family has made a fortune?

"My wife and I knew about it, but we didn't say it out loud. He went to the gambling house all day, and his mother-in-law also went to her mother's house all day, so naturally I didn't know. It's just that once I heard some rumors from somewhere, and came back to ask us, I He believed it when he said it was your uncle's family. He also said how could your family be so lucky?" The old man knew what kind of person his son was, so of course he couldn't let him disturb the life of his daughter. It was too much for them to owe her. too much!
"Then how did you know?"

"We don't know about this!" The old man was also very puzzled, guessing that he got the news from outside.

Gu Chengyu is not obsessed with this either. There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and sooner or later he will always know, even in ancient times when information was underdeveloped.In fact, Gu Chengyu didn't know that he was the cause of this matter.

"Well! Let's live at home today! There is still a guest room in the outer courtyard here, you can settle down temporarily!" There are a few vacant rooms in the inner courtyard, but he still has to ask his parents for their opinions on how to accommodate the old couple.

The old couple looked very pitiful, probably his mother had softened her heart a long time ago, but she couldn't bear to say it.When he came out of the main room, her mother looked at him hesitating to speak, she probably wanted to settle the two of them down.

Because he saw that grandma was holding a tattered bundle with no clothes in it, and it was shriveled. It should have been brought by Lu Yang when he asked them to come and stay at Gu's house.

"Let's go! We are here, the beast will definitely come again, we are his parents, we can't stop him from coming in, right?"

The old man is very clear in his heart!They are here as a drag, and the daughter is the continuation. He looked at it coldly just now, but the eldest son is okay, but the second child may have some thoughts, and his thoughts are not small.

"You just stay here today, and we'll talk about tomorrow! I'll take you to the guest room to settle down first!" Lifting the old lady's bag at his feet, he took the two of them to the guest room.

"Little Treasure! Your grandma and the others?" Mrs. Lu also regained her composure at this moment, and asked Gu Chengyu who was entering the room.

"I have already settled in the guest room, so I can only make plans in the future." Gu Chengyu lifted his robe and sat on the kang.

Seeing that she has settled down, Mrs. Lu feels relieved, let's talk about what will happen in the future!

"Your father said just now that you got the first name in the exam, what is your name as the chief of the county?" When Mrs. Lu talked about Gu Chengyu's exam, his face was full of smiles, and his son was full of enthusiasm.

"That's right! Brother, is this true? I didn't expect you to be so powerful?" At this time, Gu Wan also excitedly interjected, she was sewing a satin round neck robe, which was made for Gu Chengyu. Yue still has to go to the exam, Gu Wan still wants to make two pieces for Gu Chengyu to wear for the exam.

"Look! The robe I made for you, try it on? See if the size fits? If it doesn't fit, I need to change it!" Gu Wan bit off the thread in her hand, spread it out, and said to Gu Chengyu.

"Huh? Second Sister, this is for me?" Gu Wan has not escaped her temper in the past few years. It may be that the girl has grown up and her temper has become calmer. Last year, she was able to sew a robe by herself, including Crop these.

This is a snow blue satin round neck gown, Gu Chengyu happily took the gown and gestured on his body, this is the first time his second sister made clothes for him!
"Try it quickly, I don't dare to make such a good material! This is the first time I'm doing it, I'm afraid of wasting material." Before, Gu Chengyu's clothes were always made by Lu's, and Lu was afraid that Gu Wan could not do well. It was not until recently that Gu Wan was allowed to do it.

Gu Chengyu put the robe on her body, Gu Wan looked at the length, and found that the length was just right, and the length of her arms was also just right, this color just called Gu Chengyu, and she looked a little extravagant.

"It's all cut according to the size I gave, why is it inappropriate? It's just that this color is also called Xiaobao. Wan'er has a good eye, she looks like the young master of some rich family!" Lu said with a smile .

"Little brother has fair skin and looks good on anything! This material is good material. If you look carefully, there are dark lines! Add a fringe to the neckline and cuffs, it should look good. It's better to embroider green bamboo. You scholars don't like it." I just like those pine and bamboo ones!"

Gu Chengyu smiled, let her be happy, turned her head to look, and found that there was a half-embroidered purse in the sewing basket.
