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

Chapter 77

"Brother Li, what are you talking about? If it weren't for your introduction, my ginseng would definitely not be able to sell for so much money. I came here just to thank you." Gu Lao took out two taels from his bosom as he spoke. "Brother Li, these 20 taels of silver is a thank you gift, don't think too little."

When Gu Chengyu woke up, he saw his father go to his mother for the money, and his mother was still muttering, very upset, so he knew that the money was for Li Langzhong, and his father still didn't say anything about it in human relationships.Sure enough, people who are experienced in human feelings are knowledgeable!He didn't expect that, it seems that he still has to learn from his father.

"Brother Gu, put it away quickly, and I won't say that polite thing. You dug the ginseng and you sold it. I'm just talking about it. How can I have the nerve to accept your money?" He will never accept the 20 taels. Although he moved to Shangling Village and lived a bit of poverty, but he is not an idiot, he specializes in this industry, and he cannot accept the money. However, he can take the opportunity to raise the matter .

"Father Xiaobao, take the money back! The master will never accept your money, so don't push it around. If you really want to thank him, you might as well treat him to a drink." Seeing that Mrs. Gu wanted to hand over money, Yao quickly stopped him.

"Put it away!"

Gu Chengyu knew that Li Langzhong would never accept him as a man. If he was greedy for money, he would not have stayed in Shangling Village for so many years.

Old Gu had no choice but to put it away, "Then I'll treat you to a drink in two days, you can't refuse."

"Then I'll wait. It's just that I have something else to do, and I want to ask my brother to think about it and give me an answer."

"Brother Li, if you have anything to do, just say it, as long as I can help, I will definitely not refuse."

"That's right, you know that I'm just a girl, and I've been married a long time ago. There are only us and my wife left in the house. It's so deserted. I think your little treasure is smart and sensible. My wife and I like him very much. I think." Mr. Li hadn't finished speaking, but was interrupted by Mr. Gu.

"This, this won't work! Xiaobao is the lifeblood of his mother and me, and his mother will not agree. I'm so sorry! Brother Li!" How could Old Gu agree to Gu Chengyu's adoption to Langzhong Li?In the past, when the family had no money, he didn't know how to do it, not to mention that the family is still well off now. When he thinks about Xiaobao's adoption and calling someone else's father, it's like trying to dig out his heart. He will never agree, even if this Even if the person is Li Langzhong.

"Brother Gu, why did you say that? Is Li Yuanfeng not clear about my personality? I really want to take Xiaobao as a disciple. I don't have a son, so I will definitely treat Xiaobao as my own in the future. Brother Gu has What kind of misunderstanding? Or do you have other arrangements for Xiaobao?" Li Langzhong was very puzzled, Gu Changqing was so excited before he finished speaking, which also made him puzzled. Could it be that realizing other medical books is not enough for him to be a little boy? Po's master?

"What? Apprentice? I thought it was a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, that my brother wanted to adopt my little treasure. Don't take offense, brother." Father Gu also felt that he was reckless, and he had to wait for someone to finish talking!
After hearing Li Langzhong's words, Gu Chengyu was also relieved. His father was taken aback. He really thought that Li Langzhong was going to adopt him!
"This is really a misunderstanding. How could I do the thing of having so many children? It's just that I am eager to love, and I want Xiaobao to inherit my mantle!" Seeing that the misunderstanding was resolved, Li Langzhong thought that Gu Changqing would agree, but who knows what happened? It was not what he expected.

"Hey! Originally, it was his good fortune that my brother liked Xiaobao, but his mother and I decided to send Xiaobao to study yesterday! I'm really sorry! It's Xiaobao who doesn't have that blessing." Gu Dad also felt a little regretful, but what had been decided would not change again, Lu would not agree with Xiaobao to study medicine.

Gu Chengyu suddenly realized, no wonder he found Yao's eyes so weird!No matter how cute he is, his loving eyes are obviously looking at his own children. It's a pity, I'm afraid he will disappoint them.

Hearing this, Langzhong Li glanced at Yao Shi, Yao Shi really guessed that the Gu family had other plans, why didn't he think of it?
Yao shi on the side is also very sorry, she also loves Xiaobao with all her heart, and she knew that this matter should not be possible, but she also likes this child, but she is a little regretful that they do not have such a fate.

"No, no, everything is inferior, but reading is high. It's a good thing that you have such an ambition. Xiaobao has a good memory, can sit still, and knows how to infer other things from one example. He is a good seedling for reading. I really like Xiaobao, so I can't It blocked his way, because we don't have the fate of master and apprentice. If you have time in the future, just come to play at home. If there is something you don't understand in reading, just ask me. Although I didn't pass the exam, I also read it. I can still read the books that have been written for several years." Li Langzhong was very pleased to hear that Xiaobao was going to study, after all, studying and taking the imperial examination is the right way.

"Xiaobao, you have to study hard in the future, don't let your father down on you!" Li Langzhong looked at Gu Chengyu and told him solemnly.

Gu Chengyu didn't expect that it was Li Langzhong who wanted to accept him as an apprentice, but he had something else for Li Langzhong!
"Uncle Li, I know this opportunity to study is hard-won. I will cherish it and not let my father and mother down. But it is my honor to be valued by Uncle Li. It's just a pity that I have already promised my mother. Going to study." Gu Chengyu originally wanted to recommend the fourth brother, but in a blink of an eye, he thought that the fourth brother might prefer to study for the imperial examination?I still have to go back and ask my fourth brother about this matter. Fourth brother is delicate and doesn't like to talk. He thinks his fourth brother is quite suitable to be a doctor, but fourth brother still needs his own consent.

"It's okay, as long as you can study hard in the future."

Then Gu Chengyu and Gu Laodi got up to say goodbye, and were going to Gu Changsong's house.

Gu Changsong's family lived in the middle of the village, and Gu Chengyu and the others walked back to the gate of Gu Changsong's house.From the big gap in the courtyard gate, Gu Chengyu saw that the layout of the uncle's house was similar to his. They were both a main room with east and west wing rooms, surrounded like a courtyard. However, there were two main rooms in their house, and the kitchen room was a The one on the right side outside the main room is covered with tiles. It seems that the patriarch's family must be richer than his family, not to mention that his eldest grandson, Brother Hua, is studying.

"Brother? Are you at home?" He yelled, but Father Gu had already pushed the courtyard door and entered. Generally, as long as someone is at home in the village, the courtyard door is not closed during the day, of course, Li Langzhong's house is an exception.

"It's Changqing? Here you go! Come in and sit down!" Gu Changsong was surprised, why did the second brother come here today? Could something be wrong?
Gu Chengyu followed Father Gu into the main room, and saw Uncle Gu sitting on the edge of the kang at home, talking with Aunt Gu Yang, and stopped when they saw the two coming in. "Changqing, is there something wrong?" The two brothers lived in the same village and saw each other often, so there was nothing to be polite about.

"Brother, I'm going to send Xiaobao to study. Isn't your brother Hua back? I just want to ask you, which private school in the town is better? How is the private school that Brother Hua went to?"
