Do you know the long song of laughter?

Chapter 354 Xiao Qin’s plan
Liu Xuewen glanced at Liu Waner helplessly and said, "Then just watch from the side and don't make any sound."

Liu Xuewen has an easy-going temperament. These years, when his children are not around, only his granddaughter Liu Waner is with him, and he is reluctant to be strict with her.

"I know." Liu Waner smiled and stood aside honestly.

Liu Xuewen ignored her and took the exam to Pan Shan.

Li An lives in Bianjing and comes here often. He knows very well about Li An's knowledge.

However, I haven't seen Pan Shan for several years, so I don't know much about this student's knowledge.

Liu Xuewen asked Pan Shan to answer some questions.

Li An stood aside and listened quietly. The questions Liu Xuewen asked were all from the Four Books and Five Classics, and were not too difficult.

Pan Shan also answered questions fluently, but in Ang Lee's opinion, it was a bit scripted.

Since the Han Dynasty, when hundreds of schools of thought were deposed and only Confucianism was respected, the Four Books and Five Classics were the books that students often studied and had long since become the mainstream.

Over the past thousands of years, countless famous scholars and scholars have gained a very profound understanding of Confucian classics.

However, everyone has different understandings and interpretations of Confucian classics.

Otherwise, in the imperial examination, you only need to test articles, and why bother to test classics and meanings.

But Pan Shan's answers were all relatively mainstream interpretations, and he did not have his own understanding.

This doesn't mean it won't work, but it doesn't mean anything new.

Although the classics and meanings do not account for a high proportion in the examination, they are still very important.

If you answer questions like this in the imperial examination, it will be very difficult to pass the exam unless the article is particularly outstanding.

Li An suddenly felt someone pulling him. When he came to his senses, he saw Liu Waner secretly pulling on his sleeve.

Seeing Li An looking over, she gave Li An a look, as if to remind Li An again not to forget what she promised her.

Li An whispered: "I know, but now is not the time, so don't rush."

"Cough cough..."

Liu Xuewen coughed twice, glanced at the two of them, then turned to look at Pan Shan, and said: "You answered very well, but most of these are notes left in previous books, you just memorized them Come down without your own understanding.”

Pan Shan felt a little ashamed when he heard this and said: "Teacher, students have been focusing on articles these years, and they really don't pay much attention to these."

Liu Xuewen shook his head and said: "These are the basics. If you don't pay attention, it will be difficult to write a good article."

"Students understand it and will pay more attention to the classics and history collection in the future." Pan Shan said.

"Well, it's still early before the test. There's still time." Liu Xuewen nodded.

"Okay, I heard you preaching from afar. I won't be idle even after my birthday."

At this moment, Ms. Zhang walked in and said with a smile: "Boping, Ziqian, the meal is ready. Let's go and eat."

"Cough cough..."

Liu Xuewen said with some embarrassment: "Okay, let's go have a meal."

"Haha, it's been a long time since I tasted Master Niang's craftsmanship." Pan Shan said with a smile.

"Then you can eat more later." Mrs. Zhang smiled.

While joking, several people left the study and came to the main hall.

After sitting down and waiting for the maid to pour the wine, Pan Shan and Li An served the wine to celebrate Liu Xuewen's birthday.

"Sit down."

Liu Xuewen drank the wine, waved his hand, asked the two of them to sit down, and said, "Today is a family dinner, and I don't plan to celebrate my birthday. It's more casual."

"Yes."

Li An and Pan Shan nodded and sat down.

"Eat quickly, Bo Ping Ziqian, you guys eat more. It's hot now, and it will go bad if you don't finish it." Mrs. Zhang picked up the chopsticks and picked up some vegetables for the two of them.

"Thank you, Master." Pan Shan thanked him, and when he saw Liu Xuewen moving his chopsticks, he picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

……

Gu family
Gu Tingye was practicing calligraphy in the study when Xiao Qin came in with several maids carrying snacks.

"Erlang, have some tea and snacks and rest for a while. Don't be tired." Xiao Qin said with a smile.

"Mother!"

Gu Tingye put down his pen, bowed and said, "I'm not tired, my kid. Now that the exam is getting closer and closer, I don't have much confidence, so I can only be more diligent."

"It's right to be diligent, but you also need to balance work with rest. Come over here. Mom has something to tell you." Xiao Qin said.

"Yes."

Gu Tingye responded and came to sit in front of Xiao Qin.

Xiao Qin sent the maid out, leaving only her, Gu Tingye, and Chu's mother in the house.

"Erlang, I have thought carefully about what you told me last time. You also know your father's temper. It is definitely not possible to tell him directly. So I thought of helping you arrange a marriage. As long as your future wife is virtuous and her If you let your outer room come in, your father won't be able to say anything," Xiao Qin said.

"My mother has thought it through very carefully. I heard that my mother and father have been talking about this matter recently. I wonder if I have chosen someone?" Gu Tingye asked.

"Your father and I have discussed it carefully. The eldest girl from the Yu family is already hair-haired, so she is a good candidate. Your father is also more interested in her," Xiao Qin said.

"Yu family? But she is the granddaughter of Mrs. Yu who has become an official?" Gu Tingye asked.

Previously, Xianggong Yu and several important officials in the court petitioned the officials to establish a heir apparent, which made the officials furious.

The official family demoted Xianggong Yu during the dynasty, but after the early dynasty, they allowed Xianggong Yu to become an official because of his old age, and he was granted the title of Grand Master.

"That's right, this eldest girl from the Yu family is the eldest granddaughter of Master Yu." Xiao Qin said.

"I also know the elder man of the Yu family. I only heard that he has a younger sister. Didn't you hear that there is another older sister above him?" Gu Tingye frowned.

"Haha, the mother of the eldest girl of the Yu family died young, and later she married another one. The eldest son of the Yu family is actually the second eldest son. Because he doesn't want to see this sister, he always calls himself the eldest son to the outside world." Xiao Qin said.

When Gu Tingye heard this, he sneered in his heart. It turned out that he had found someone who was not welcome.

Xiao Qin was worried that Gu Tingye would think too much, and explained: "Although the eldest girl of the Yu family is not favored by her parents and brothers, she is very popular with Mrs. Yu and her wife, and they have raised her by their side since she was a child. The most important thing is that this eldest girl has a good temper. Very good, among all the unmarried girls in Bianjing, the only one who can accept you having an extramarital affair and let your extramarital affair enter is Miss Yu. "

During this period, Xiao Qin has been looking for a suitable family for Gu Tingye.

However, Gu Tingye has a reputation as a playboy, and with her deliberate publicity, this is even more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The companies she was interested in, after a little testing, they quickly rejected them, either saying they had already made a decision, or saying they were reluctant and wanted the girl to stay for a few more years.

This made Xiao Qin a little distressed. She had made people spread exaggerated propaganda and ruined Gu Tingye's reputation, but she didn't expect it to be what it is today.

Xiao Qin never thought about those with low family status.

Even if it is settled, if people know that Gu Tingye has an affair, they may not come to the Gu family to cause trouble.

After choosing for a long time, I finally heard someone talking about this girl Yu.

Although Mrs. Yu has retired from office, her influence will still remain as long as Mrs. Yu is not dead.

The most important thing is that Master Yu attaches great importance to this granddaughter.

Given the lofty character of a scholar, even if the marriage was settled, Mrs. Yu would still regret the marriage given her temperament.

When Mrs. Yu comes to the house and makes a fuss, the Gu family will be completely disgraced.

By then, with Gu Yan's open temper, he would never let Gu Tingye's outer room in even if Gu Tingye was named on the gold medal list.

Gu Tingye also has a very strong temper and may run away from home because of this matter.

Of course, this is just Xiao Qin's inner plan.

When talking to Gu Tingye, he sounded like he was thinking about Gu Tingye.
