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

Chapter 542

Then he said to the shopkeeper with red eyes: "The shopkeeper is too low-minded. I said that the rent is temporarily on credit for two days. When I find relatives in the capital, I will come and pay you back. Why are you so angry?"

The woman also wiped her tears with her sleeves, a little at a loss for what happened before her eyes.

The shopkeeper sneered, he had seen too many scholars like this.Poor students have the dream of becoming a high official through the imperial examination, but they don't know that this place is at the foot of the emperor, where talents from all over the world are gathered. It's not easy to get ahead.
Every day, students leave their hometowns and come to the capital to study, but most of them fail to pass the exams in the famous academies in the capital, and those small academies are even more expensive.If the college is good at learning and gets a ranking in the monthly exam, it can reduce the tuition.

Therefore, those scholars themselves don't have much money, and they can't afford the expensive repairs in small colleges, so they can only be high or low.But even so, there are still many candidates who yearn for the prestigious universities in the capital, like moths to a flame.

Some scholars are so poor that they have to rely on selling books to make ends meet, and he drove away two last month.It was also because he was really angry. This is just a small inn, and he can't make much money a day. The people living in the capital and even the officials know how much the capital costs.

It is impossible for him to open a philanthropic hall and let these scholars eat and live for free.At the beginning, some students said that they had credit for a few days without money, and he believed it, but in the end, they really couldn't get any money back, so naturally he couldn't get credit anymore.

It also happened that he was in a bad mood today, and this kind of thing happened again, so he uttered bad words.No matter!Be a human being and stay on the line, so we can meet each other in the future.

Ye Zhiqiu also saw this situation, and felt very sympathetic to this scholar, because he was also a poor student.He also heard what the shopkeeper scolded the scholar, and he couldn't understand the vicious words, and was very angry.

"How can the shopkeeper utter evil words? Since the scholar has no money, he should be driven away. Why should he humiliate others?"

Ye Zhiqiu acted aggrieved, wishing he could ask Mingyan to stop the carriage and go down to teach the shopkeeper a lesson.

Gu Chengyu also felt that this scolding was really ugly, a scholar has a good face, and you, a shopkeeper in business, should know the truth of making money with harmony.

However, Gu Chengyu took a look at the door of the inn, and found that it was a small inn, and the red paint on the upper windows was about to fall off.This inn is also a small business, if the scholar really has no money and refuses to leave at the inn, then he has done too much.

The capital is very expensive, and the houses in some small inns are not bought, but rented.The annual profit has to pay the rent, and there is not much left.

The price of goods in the capital is expensive, and this inn is small, and it is estimated that the money earned is not much, so it is naturally impossible for people to live for free.

Even those big inns, there is no reason for free.Besides, it is common sense for a businessman to focus on profits, so it is common sense for the shopkeeper to chase people away, but the scolding is too ugly.

However, there are a lot of things like this in the capital, and Gu Chengyu didn't plan to stop the carriage to take care of them, after all, the emergency is not the poor.

If you go to help, how much money should you give?You can't always advance the money for food and lodging, can you?If it's just two days' rent, then the shopkeeper obviously means that he doesn't want it anymore, so it's completely unnecessary.

Pressing down on Ye Zhiqiu who wanted to ask Ming Yan to stop, "There are countless injustices in the world, how can you handle them all? If you really go forward and give money, people will still treat it as a charity from you, and they may not be able to appreciate it."

Ye Zhiqiu paused when he heard the words, and then with a bitter face, he sat down unwillingly, "That's right! I am still relying on others for relief! How can I meddle in other people's business?"

When Gu Chengyu heard this, he frowned, and felt a little unhappy.Ye Zhiqiu was too fussy about this, he always said that, and seemed to care about it, Gu Chengyu couldn't help but blame himself for meddling.

Ye Zhiqiu was different from Sun Xian. Sun Xian's family was poor before, but he did not shy away from talking about this matter. He was grateful for Gu Chengyu's help and accepted it generously.He also promised that he would try his best to help wherever he was needed in the future.As it turns out, it does.

When Gu Chengyu was arrested, he ran back and forth, trying his best to find a way.He also wanted to spend all his wealth and take care of Gu Chengyu.

Ye Zhiqiu is actually a person who values ​​friendship, but he is too sensitive, and sometimes it is unavoidable to make people uncomfortable.A little matter should be kept in mind, which is what people often say.

"Your words are wrong. Who in this world will help you for no reason except your parents? Your board and lodging are all earned by Aunt Ye and Sister Ye's family. It was never given by others. In the future, you will not I have to say this, so as not to make Aunt Ye and the others sad."

In fact, Ye Zhiqiu just didn't want to open it!When I get older, I will be more open-minded, and now I am still a young man after all.

As soon as Ye Zhiqiu finished speaking, he also felt that something was wrong.Hearing Gu Chengyu say that again now, I couldn't help but feel guilty.

He just has low self-esteem. Jinyu became famous at a young age and brought his family to make a fortune, which put too much pressure on him.He always involuntarily compares himself with him, which makes him feel that he is inferior in every way.

At this moment, he understood that he was too stubborn.At the same time, he secretly made up his mind that he would not be able to do this again in the future. Being covered in thorns like this would not only hurt himself, but also hurt the people around him.

"You scholar, don't blame me for speaking badly. You have such a big head and such a big hat, don't be too whimsical. You have been hit by a wall in the academy these days, and you still don't give up? Think more about your relatives, while you still have some money , go to your grandma’s house quickly!”

The shopkeeper tried to persuade him this time, but the shopkeeper didn't believe what the scholar said about having relatives in the capital.Even if it was there before, it must not be in the capital, otherwise it has been here for several days, why can't I find it?

"Brother Fang?" The head of the family is not here, and she has no idea, so she can only rely on her eldest grandson.

The scholar was a little helpless, looking at the burden in front of him, he wanted to cry, and ignored the shopkeeper, just stood in front of the inn and waited for his master to come back.The third sister is still in the medical clinic, and the medical clinic refuses to pay on credit, so she can only go back if it doesn't work.

But the younger brother is still in the hands of those people, how do they go back?

Gu Chengyu and his carriage were still some distance away just now, and now they happened to pass by the door of the inn.Gu Chengyu wanted to put down the curtain, but a pair of anxious and depressed eyes looked over, and they happened to meet Gu Chengyu's eyes.

Gu Chengyu glanced at him indifferently, then lowered the curtain.The scholar saw the people in the luxurious carriage and found that they were two young men in official uniforms.Really a young man, looking very young.

He was a little envious. The young masters of these aristocratic families had been taught by famous teachers since they were young, and they became officials at such a young age.
