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

Chapter 806
He is not worried about Saburo's little thoughts.If his temper was rigid and inflexible, he would not let him work with Yu Tanzi.

Anyway, it is impossible for him to let Saburo be the chief steward. There are other people hindering him. If there is no change in personnel in the past few years, he doesn't need to worry about it.

"Tomorrow, I'll ask the matchmaker to come to the house and run through the doors."

Gu Chengyu was drinking the old duck soup happily, but Lu's words were astonishing, and almost spit out the soup in Gu Chengyu's mouth.

"Matchmaker? There's no need to be in such a hurry, right?" He swallowed quickly, and looked at Mrs. Lu in horror.

Didn't the topic change just now?Why are you turning back now?
"The boss is not young, don't you rush?"

Lu cast a light glance at Gu Chengyu, ignoring Gu Chengyu's surprised attitude, picked up the soup bowl and drank the soup slowly.

"Mother, it's too early. I'm only 14 years old and just stepped into the imperial court. How can I get married so early? This is not good for my official career!"

Then Gu Chengyu rolled his eyes and thought of a countermeasure.

Lu looked at him silently, as if wanting to see what kind of flowers he could name.

"Mother! The teacher said that it's really too early for me to get married now. I haven't established a firm foothold in the court, but I just want to marry, and those aristocratic families probably look down on me."

Seeing that his mother was unmoved, Gu Chengyu could only persuade her in this way.

"Who dares to look down on my son? My son is not only good-looking, he is also a sixth-rank official. Look at this big house, my son can make so much money, who dares to look down on him? He is blind."

When Lu Shi heard this, she became very angry. How could anyone look down on her son?

All right!His mother just has a kind of blind self-confidence that my son is the best in the world, and whoever looks down on him is blind.

"Could it be that there is a girl you have taken a fancy to, and that girl's family doesn't like you? You tell me which one it is, and I will call the matchmaker to propose marriage for you."

Lu looked at Gu Chengyu suspiciously, and glanced back and forth at Gu Chengyu.

Gu Chengyu raised his forehead, his mother thought his son was gold?Everyone wants to like him?
"Mother! I really don't have this. My son can't get married yet." Gu Chengyu explained helplessly.

He is so helpless!He was urged to marry when he was only 14 years old, and he was still forced to marry a wife.

"Okay! Xiaobao's teacher is right. He's only in the officialdom now, so let's not cause trouble for him."

At this moment, Old Man Gu put down his chopsticks and said to Mrs. Lu.

Gu Chengyu hurriedly glanced at Father Gu gratefully, and almost gave him a thumbs up.

"You still go to someone else's house to get married. Our son is a sixth-rank official, and those aristocratic families probably look down on him. Wait for another two years, wait for him to go up a few levels, wouldn't it be better to propose marriage?"

Gu's father stabbed Gu Chengyu's heart with his words, because his father thought that no one would look up to him now and would despise him for his low official position.

Gu Lao's tone was full of disgust, and Gu Chengyu was shocked.

Wait two years, how many levels can you go up?

Gu Chengyu just thought hehe, is there such a good thing?Gu Chengyu complained in his heart, but at least he achieved his goal.

But when it comes to marrying a wife, Gu Chengyu has no plans so far.

Anyway, it's a day if it can be delayed. It would be even better if we can not get married.

He glanced at the dumb granny next to Mrs. Lu, and saw the dumb granny staring at the floor tiles in a daze.

He had some doubts that the dumb mother-in-law's persuasion was too much. When the Lu family and the others were coming to Shangling Village, the dumb mother-in-law spent a lot of energy teaching his mother how to behave.

After all, it is the capital city, and the Gu family is considered an official family now, so they can't still do things the same as they do in the village.

Even though Mrs. Lu hasn't come into contact with those official wives yet, if she doesn't break her temper and learn some rules, she will inevitably make a joke in the future.

He heard once before that the dumb mother-in-law said that he was not a big official in the capital, so he must be cautious in his words and deeds, so as not to offend the nobles in the capital.

It is estimated that his father took this matter to heart later on, thinking that he was better than Zhimaguan, so he was afraid of getting him into trouble.

No wonder he wanted the guards in the mansion to send the second elder to Fangshi in the capital, but the second elder refused to go out.

The dumb mother-in-law's starting point is good intentions, but it's not good to overcorrect.

"Your mother wasn't talking about you, but Brother Fang." Father Gu glanced at Gu Chengyu, then put down the chopsticks in his hand.

"Brother Fang?" Gu Chengyu was stunned for a moment.

Seeing Gu Chengyu's dazed look, Gu's father probably never considered Brother Fang's marriage.

"Brother Fang is almost twenty this year, isn't he? Last time he came to pay our respects, I asked him. Since you have come to keep him here, we will always be his elders, a great event in his life."

Father Gu glanced at Gu Chengyu, he wanted to see Xiaobao's reaction.After all, what his second brother did was unreasonable before, Xiaobao might still be angry.

In fact, Gu Chengyu doesn't care. He wants to get married when he gets old, so he has no reason to stop him, right?

From the day he left Gu Wanfang behind, Gu Wanfang's life was dominated by Gu Chengyu.

Of course, praise will not be mentioned in the next few decades.At least for the past ten years or so, Gu Wanfang still had to depend on herself.

However, since he was involved with Gu Chengyu, when he entered the officialdom that day, he would naturally be labeled as Gu Chengyu.

"Although the second brother is indeed too much, I think Brother Fang is a good one."

Old man Gu sighed, after all, he was a grandnephew, so he couldn't ignore it.

"Now he has to rely on Xiaobao for food and drink, and you still give him money to marry a wife, you are really kind."

Mrs. Lu was a little upset. When the old man mentioned this matter to her before, she disagreed.

Brother Fang and grandma, when will it be my turn to worry about life-long events?
Besides, food and lodging are all paid by Xiaobao on weekdays, even the expenses of studying are covered by Xiaobao.Now that Xiaobao is required to pay for the marriage, she is naturally unhappy.

"Father! If it's a girl from a small family, she doesn't need a lot of money to get married, and we are not that stingy. But this is a lifelong event, you should ask him, maybe he has other plans?"

Gu Chengyu feels that it is not easy to take care of this matter of kissing, if the two of them get back together in the future, it will be fine!

I'm afraid that the two people's tempers are not congenial, if the woman's temper is more aggressive, then there will be a small quarrel for three days, a big quarrel for five days, and it will end up as a bitter couple?

At that time, Gu Wanfang might still complain in his heart, thinking that the Gu family told him whether he was a good character or not.

In ancient times, it was a blind marriage, and the two had never even met before, let alone whether their personalities were compatible.

"He's been here twice before, and you're not in the mansion, so I'm sure you won't be able to come back today. When you see him, ask him what he means. If you want us to help you, you can tell us later."

"Ah? Let me ask? Wouldn't it be better for you to ask?" Gu Chengyu was a little taken aback. He himself is a young man, isn't it appropriate?
