Teases the peasant girl to be busy

Chapter 155

Everyone in the Gu family is full of joy after eating a New Year's Eve dinner, and this year, the entire Gu family village can be said to have a very bumper harvest, so the atmosphere in the village is relatively good.

After the new year, everyone started to be busy with spring plowing, preparing seeds and other things. Of course, Gu Shuang was one of the very busy ones. The shop started normal business on the seventh day of the lunar new year.

And after the beginning of spring, a big event happened in the Gu family. It was Gu Wen and Gu Wu who came back to tell about it. After hearing it, Gu Shuang still found it a little inconceivable.

"We are going to prepare for the exam. In a few days, the Tongsheng exam will be held. If possible this year, we will be able to pass the exam. In this way, the land in our home will not have to pay taxes."

After Gu Shuang heard this, besides being shocked, he was also a little worried: "But, big brother, second brother, how long have you guys been studying? And you're still young, so there's no need to be so anxious."

Gu Wen and Gu Wu were indeed a little anxious. After all, Gu Shuang was in charge of everything in the family. Gu Shuang worked very hard, and the family was now being taken care of by Master Zhou.

This made the two of them feel a little insecure after all. The three-year scientific examination just started, and the master also said that their accumulation was enough, so both of them wanted to try it.

Looking at Gu Shuang: "Let's try it. If it doesn't work this time, we will have to wait for three years. After three years, we will not be too young. We are saying that it is better to pass the exam. If we don't pass the exam, it will be regarded as accumulation." experience."

When Gu Shuang heard what he said, he still nodded: "Since you are all prepared mentally, that's good, let's take the test!"

Gu Wen nodded with a smile: "Actually, there is no need to worry. The first child's entrance exam is assessed by a few adults and masters. It is easy to pass. It is when you want to take the examination of scholar."

"You need to go to Fucheng for the exam, and you may have to go to Fucheng for a few days, which will be a bit inconvenient."

It turned out to be like this, Gu Shuang nodded, expressing that he knew, after all, in An County, Master Zhou was taking care of him, and Gu Shuang was still at ease about the knowledge of the two brothers.

It's spring, and the cotton that Gu Shuang was thinking about will be planted, and the rice seeds exchanged from the system will also start raising seedlings, and the [-]-acre terraced fields on the barren hills have been remodeled after half a year. . "

Thinking that there are still many things to do, he looked at Gu Wen: "Brother, I won't worry about you in the Tong Shengjian. When I go to Fucheng, I will go with you! I will make arrangements now, what will our family plant this spring plowing."

Without waiting for Gu Wen to come back, Gu Shuang went out and found Uncle Li: "Uncle Li, come with me. The house over there has also been repaired. Let's move there sometime."

"Let's live here for the time being. Besides, let me tell you, you come with me to the warehouse."

The warehouse was rebuilt later. Uncle Li followed Gu Shuang to the warehouse. There are two rooms filled with seeds: "This is cotton. I have already written down the planting method."

"Be careful. Besides, these are the special rice seeds I found. They are enough for a thousand acres of seeds. Hurry up and cultivate the seedlings, so that they can be transplanted when the time comes."

"In addition, for watermelons, seedlings must be raised first, and you should cultivate more. I am afraid that there will be a lot of people growing watermelons in An County this year, so we must prepare more."

"If there are peanuts, it's best to spread them and let more people grow them, and tell them that when they grow them, our Gu family will buy peanuts back."

As for the uses of peanuts, Uncle Li already knew everything. After all, he had eaten peanut oil for half a year, so of course he knew. He listened to Gu Shuang's instructions one by one.

Uncle Li nodded: "Understood, girl, I have written down everything you told me. I will tell Uncle Gu to take action later."

Gu Shuang nodded: "That's right, I've left all the family matters to you. Maybe I'll go to Fucheng in a few days, and I won't bring you with me then. But I shouldn't be there for long."

Uncle Li nodded: "This old slave knows that you are going to accompany the Eldest and Second Young Masters to participate in the provincial examination. Don't worry, this old slave will arrange everything at home."

Now the Gu family has more servants, so the names of Uncle Li and others are already very formal. Of course, Gu Shuang didn't notice this change at all.

Gu Wen and Gu Wu passed easily. Of course, they returned home immediately and reported the good news to Gu Shuang and the others: "Little sister, your elder brother and I both passed."

"Master said, I will go to Fucheng to take the exam in seven days. This time, all ten people in our official school passed, and there are five people in the private school!"

Gu Shuang blinked his eyes: "There are only ten people in the official school?"

Looking at Gu Shuang's appearance, Gu Wen knew that Gu Shuang's thinking was wrong: "The seniors in government schools are all scholars, but if they continue to study in Fucheng, it will cost more money relatively."

"In the official school, the things you learn are similar, but they are cheaper, so more people stay. And because the courtyard of the official school in An County is very famous, so many people stay. one."

Although Gu Shuang didn't understand these reasons, he didn't care too much, just nodded: "Okay, then you will start the exam in 7 days, right? Then who in our family will go with you?"

"Mom, are you going?"

Gu's mother was stunned for a while, and then said: "Mother is at home looking after the shop, so I won't go. Your elder brother and second brother are both 13 or 14 years old this year. If mother is still with you, I'm afraid they will be laughed at."

When Gu Shuang heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched. Also, in ancient times, 14-year-old boys were treated like adults. You must know that this age was only a junior high school student in the past.

He pouted: "I'm going to follow. I didn't take a good look around last time, let's go for a good look this time! When the eldest brother and the second brother took the exam, I was shopping outside."

Hearing Gu Shuang's words, Gu Hao suddenly said: "I'm going too, mother, I haven't been to Fucheng yet! I want to go shopping!"

Mother Gu looked at her two daughters, especially Gu Hao, who was usually very sensible and didn't ask for anything at all, so she said, "Okay, then you can go with Shuang'er."

Gu Hao nodded happily: "Thank you, mother."

The people who are going to Fucheng have been confirmed. This time, Gu Shuang will bring Xin Lu and Xin Lan with him, and it is enough for Gu Hao to bring Ye Yun. After all, Ye Yu still has to help in the shop.

Of course, Gu Wen, Gu Wu and the others brought their own bookboys. There are two carriages for a group of people. This time, Xiong Da and Xiong Er are driving the carriage. It is safer to bring two tall and burly people to drive.
