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

481 Pride
After Ming Mo heard this, his hands froze. Although he felt that what Gu Chengyu said made sense, he still cared a little.After all, he and Mingyan have been taking care of the daily life after serving the young master for six years, but now they have to be handed over to Lichun.

"How can this be hard work? I'm not tired when I'm young."

Gu Chengyu understands their feelings, but Mingmo and the others will have more and more things to do in the future. It is better to leave these trivial matters in life to Lichun.

The other young servants in the mansion don't know martial arts, and if the T-shaped generation wants to do errands for him, it's overqualified to be a servant in the mansion.

The girl in Lichun was just right to take care of his daily life, and besides, he didn't need much help, as long as he took care of the house for him.

"You and Mingyan have taken care of me for six years. They have always been the people I need and trust me the most. I don't let you do these chores because I want you to focus on the things I have told you. You guys How can you waste your time on these trifles if you want to go out for me?"

Gu Chengyu knew that if he wanted Mingmo and the others to change their minds, it would take a lot of talking, so as not to have any thoughts in their hearts.Ming Mo and the others are reliable in their work. As long as it is ordered by him, there is very little that cannot be done. Even Ming Yan has become more mature and stable in the past two years.

Think again, don't you?Mingmo is sixteen this year!Mingyan is only one year younger than Mingmo. If she was 16 years old in Shangling Village, she would probably marry a wife.

"Ming Mo, you are sixteen this year, right? You are also at the age of marriage, do you have someone in mind?" Gu Chengyu asked jokingly.

There are also a few older girls in the mansion, and some of them are pretty good looking.Could it be possible that before he found out, Ming Mo had someone he liked?
Gu Chengyu admitted that he was a bit gossip, there was no other way, the marriage affairs of his subordinates should not be ignored!Naturally, the marriage of a servant must be approved by the master, and the servants of the rich family are usually appointed by the master.

Ming Mo was a little embarrassed, those girls would naturally show their hospitality, but they didn't want to do that at the moment.The young master is not very old, yet he even reminded them of the important events in his life.

"My lord, don't worry about it, I don't have anyone I like." Ming Mo blushed and hurried out of the room.

Gu Chengyu laughed dumbfounded, are you shy?
The next day, Gu Chengyu asked Ming Yan to send someone to Tianxiang Pavilion to pick up Hua Lian, and prepared a thank you gift for Xi Yan.Since he troubled others, he would not be stingy.

He only asked about Shenghua Lian's situation, and after hearing that she was fine, he hurried into the carriage before he could ask in detail, and planned to go to the Wu Mansion to pay a visit first.

The carriage turned two streets and entered the alley to the north. Fortunately, Wu's Mansion and He's Mansion were not far away, and even Jiang's Mansion was on this street. Gu Chengyu still had time for three of them in one morning.

After getting out of the carriage, the steward of the outer court led him to the outer study.

Wu An was checking official documents in the study, when he saw Gu Chengyu coming, he glanced at him without much enthusiasm.

"Second brother!" Gu Chengyu saluted first, and then sat down opposite Wu An.

"The fraud case is over. In these two days, there will be an imperial list posted, which will return the innocence of you candidates. The palace exam is less than a month away. Since the big brother is already taking care of you, it seems to be no problem. You recently You still have to focus on reading."

Wu An cut straight to the point when he opened his mouth. Facing his junior who was younger than the eldest son, he could only say some words of encouragement, lest Gu Chengyu fail the exam and lose his reputation as a teacher.

Gu Chengyu nodded yes, then got up again, and bowed to Wu An to the end, "I have to thank my brother for helping me with the previous matter, Chengyu is very grateful."

Wu An nodded quite satisfied, this junior is a grateful one, and the teacher didn't miss it this time.

"You and my brothers don't need to thank you. The teacher is not in the capital, so the brothers should take care of you."

Gu Chengyu thanked him again, and the two of them skipped talking about it.

After that, Wu An told Gu Chengyu about the incident in the court.Maybe it's because Gu Chengyu is going to take the palace examination, and then he will become an official.Wu An no longer fortified Gu Chengyu, and picked up some things in the court.

"If you want to participate in the palace examination this time, you have to beware of Xia Qing. You are the No. 1 in the examination. The officials in Jiangnan think that you are not pleasing to the eye, and they may find a way to pull you down. Although the senior brother will help you, But you can't take it lightly."

Wu An thought for a while, and then said to Gu Chengyu: "However, you have always kept yourself clean, as long as you don't do anything wrong, those people will have nothing to do with you."

After hearing this, Gu Chengyu immediately thought, something wrong?So does it count if he visits brothels?Thinking of this, the expression on his face was a little embarrassed.

Many people knew about the incident of going to Tianxiang Pavilion last night. Will it reach the ears of those Jiangnan officials?Use this matter as a raft again?
Wu An saw that Gu Chengyu's expression was different, and frowned, "You must have done something inappropriate recently, right? If you have something to say as soon as possible, we can think about countermeasures together."

Gu Chengyu suddenly felt a little burning on his face. He was really embarrassed to say such things about visiting brothels. Although he didn't do anything, he couldn't help but feel guilty.

So, he hemmed and hawed and talked about the matter of going to Tianxiang Pavilion last night.

Wu An had heard about the Wenhui of Tianxiang Pavilion for a long time. Although he had never been there, everyone in the capital knew of the Wenhui of Tianxiang Pavilion.The literary fair is held every year, and there are countless talents who attend the literary fair every time.

Wu An thought about it for a while, going to brothels, the reputation is always bad, although it is just to participate in the cultural meeting, after all, Gu Chengyu still called the price.Even if it was to save the girl, the others didn't know about it!They thought that Gu Chengyu really went there for the romance!

Even for this purpose, other people will be fine.But Gu Chengyu is on the cusp of this, and this matter may become a handle in the hands of those people.

For this reason, Wu An's complexion was a little unfriendly.However, he immediately remembered that Gu Chengyu was still a young man, so there was nothing wrong with being interested in these things.

"Senior brother, since I have already promised that girl, I must keep my word. Originally, I just accompanied Zhu Pang to visit the Wenhui, so I didn't plan to make a move. But since we met, it's not good to stand by and watch."

Gu Chengyu didn't think too much about it before, it seems that he was overbearing, thinking that with Yin Kun's support, there would be no trouble.He made another mistake, it seems that he is too proud, where is the court?
That was a battlefield where blood was not seen. He thought he could turn things around in the fraud case, so he didn't pay attention to those courtiers.He didn't know that those people just had a crooked mind, and it would make him tired of coping.

Gu Chengyu felt ashamed of his previous pride. With such a mentality, he could not go far in the officialdom.

Seeing that Gu Chengyu knew the seriousness of the matter, Wu An couldn't say anything more.
