Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

The   chaokao is easier than the general exam, and most of the second-class jinshi with decent family background will choose to take the shujishi to stay in the capital.

  Because there is an unspoken practice among the civil servants, those who are not jinshi will not be admitted to the Hanlin, and those who are not in the Hanlin are inferior to the cabinet.

   Therefore, for the sake of a bright future, everyone will go all out to take the examination of Shuji Shi.

   But there are exceptions.

  Han Lin is very noble, and the sages have less salaries, not even Bingjing and Tanjing in summer and winter. If the family is not rich, it is too difficult to stay in the capital with that little salary.

Not to mention buying a house, even if it is renting a house, it costs a lot of money for a month with living expenses. Besides, being an official requires entertainment. As a scholar, you must attend several literary conferences a year, and you can go to several taels at a time. In addition, there are rituals for Shangguan and colleagues during New Years and festivals, as well as birthdays, weddings, funerals and other etiquette exchanges...

   Just thinking about it, you can feel the money, so people who don’t have money will not stay in the capital.

  Although the salaries of the county magistrates are not many, they are the biggest parental officials in the local area. Even if they don’t take bribes or do anything wrong, they can make a good life for themselves and their families with some conventional gray income.

   Besides, the county magistrate owns Lutian, so he does not need to pay taxes. All the income from the Lutian allocated from the official land is his own.

  The Zhao family is not particularly rich, but they are small landlords and have only one son, so it is more than enough to support him in the capital.

   And Zhao Ning didn't make extravagance and waste, because he had no worries, after making up his mind, he went all out to prepare for the exam.

   He had good grades in both the proficiency exam and the palace exam, plus Gu Jingyun was watching him study, and he was one of the top three, so he passed the Shuji Shi without any suspense.

Shu Ji Shi has to study in the Hanlin Academy for three years, and then enter the Hanlin Academy after three years. Of course, if he has made outstanding contributions during the period or has entered the eyes of Shangguan, he can also be granted an official position in advance. For details, please refer to the same session as Gu Jingyun. Qi Lekang, he emerged from the Shuji Shi and became a Hanlin in one year.

Zhao Ning doesn't have such big ambitions. He has already fulfilled the dream of the four generations of Zhao's family when he can pass the jinshi examination. Next, he just wants to buy a small house in the capital, and then bring his grandfather and parents over, so that the family can live a simple and happy life. Just stay together.

   So as soon as he got the results of the court test, Zhao Ning immediately prepared to leave for his hometown.

  Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu sent him out of the city. It was already mid-April, and Bai Yitang and Qin Wenyin, who had vowed to return to the capital in April, had not moved.

  Gu Jingyun said that he had seen through them, so let them go, anyway, Bai Yitang is not in a hurry to marry, why should he be anxious for him?

   It's just that Li Baolu was a little angry, because the yard she just cleaned seemed to fall to the ground again, and she had to clean it again when she came back.

There were four less people at home, and I felt a lot quieter, especially because of the lack of a pregnant woman, Li Baolu no longer had any scruples in her actions, so she waved her hand and said to Qu Jingxi and Qu Weizhen, "We won't be at home for dinner today. , go out to eat! Come on, where do you want to eat?"

  Qu Jingxi immediately raised her hand and said, "I want to eat mutton soup buns!"

   Qu Weizhen also raised his hand, "I want to eat Huanglaowujia dry pot pig's trotters."

  Li Baolu gave the two of them an admiring look, "If you have vision, then let's eat the dry pot pig's trotters from Huanglaowujia at noon, and go to the end of the street to eat mutton soup buns at the end of the street."

   The two children cheered, turned and ran back to the room, grabbed their schoolbags and ran out. Since they are going out to eat, shopping must be indispensable.

   Sure enough, Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu were already waiting for them at the gate holding hands, and they got into the car when they saw them running.

   Qu Weizhen dragged his younger brother and ran over, and also climbed into the carriage.

  Dongfeng and Lao Litou lifted the threshold, Erlin drove out with a smile, leaving Aunt Sun looking at them sadly. Is it so happy to go out to eat?

   Could it be that her cooking skills have declined?

  Li Baolu looked at the lively street outside through the car window, and said happily, "It's still early noon, we can taste the little things outside first."

   Qu Weizhen and Qu Jingxi nodded and swallowed involuntarily.

   And Gu Jingyun not only has a weak spleen and stomach, he never tires of eating fines and fines, but he also has some cleanliness. Under such circumstances, he naturally cannot speak, and he can only pay later.

Li Baolu was planning hotly with the two disciples, when the carriage suddenly stopped, the horse neighed, Li Baolu habitually fell forward, Gu Jingyun picked her up quickly, held her back and leaned back, the back of his head was " Bang" slammed into the wall of the car.

   And Qu Weizhen and Qu Jingxi fell to the floor like upside down and rolled into a ball.

   Li Baolu reached out and touched Gu Jingyun's head distressedly. After confirming that there was no bleeding, she reached out to pull the two disciples, "Are you all alright?"

   "It's okay." Qu Weizhen rubbed her forehead.

  Gu Jingyun covered his head with a "swoosh" and opened the car curtain, frowned and looked forward, "What's going on?"

   "Master, someone hit the car!"

"Mr. Gu? Mister Gu, help!" Xi Bao was startled and thought he was going to be killed, but when he looked up, he saw Gu Jingyun. He immediately walked up on his knees and raised his head as if he had met a savior. Sir, my young master is your student Lan Tong, and I beg Mr. Gu to save my young master."

   Gu Jingyun frowned, "What happened to Lan Tong?"

   "My wife is going to beat the young master and imprison the young master in the ancestral hall. The young master is only nine years old, how can he bear the cane, and ask the master to save my young master!"

   "Where's your master?"

   "Master went to Zhuangzi outside the city yesterday and didn't come back. The housekeeper has already sent someone to invite..."

  Gu Jingyun lowered the curtain with a cold face, and said solemnly, "Come on, Erlin, go to the Blue House in Mao'er Hutong."

Now that he has gone to invite Lan Hua, he still comes to beg him. It can be seen that he is not reasonable in the troubles caused by Lan Tong, and this trouble is not small, otherwise the family shame will not be made public, this little servant will not come to him, the academy gentleman. .

  Although he didn't want to go into the muddy waters, but thinking of Lan Tong, who was a little timid and cowardly, Gu Jingyun still let Er Lin go to Lan Zhai.

   He rubbed his forehead with a bit of a headache, it was really bad, when did he become so soft-hearted?

  Li Baolu didn't think much about it. She naturally knew all of Gu Jingyun's students, so she couldn't help worrying about Lan Tong, "That child is a little afraid of life, so he is more lively in front of familiar people. What kind of trouble can he cause?"

  Gu Jingyun looked directly at the good news kneeling at the door, and asked with a frown, "Why don't you tell me soon?"

Xi Bao shook for a while, his face paled, he also knew the severity, so he just bit his lip and said, "Young Master, the young master and some of his classmates and young masters acted as ghosts, and somehow scared the wife, and the wife was frightened. I fell into a miscarriage and gave birth to a formed male fetus, my wife was furious, and someone arrested the young master to fight the board, but the master was not at home, the young man was afraid that the young master would be more fortunate if he tortured him with a cane."

  Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu looked at each other.

   Gu Jingyun then asked in detail: "Your young master pretended to be a ghost to scare your wife? Where did he scare you, and who was there at the time?"

Xi Bao looked dazed and said with a bitter face: "This matter was done privately by the young master and a few classmates and young masters, hiding it from all of us, so the little one doesn't know anything. I only know that the accident happened in the old lady's place. In the courtyard, the one who was frightened along with the wife was Sister Xianglian in the old lady's courtyard."

Gu Jingyun couldn't help but think of the **** Lan Tong mentioned at the beginning of the school year. Someone in the Lan family wanted to be unfavorable to Lan Tong. Gu Jingyun knew this from the moment he knew about Lan Tong's "god to hell". He was able to protect him for a while, but he couldn't protect him for the rest of his life, so not only did he not do it himself, but he also let Lan Tong's father, Lan Hua, not do it for the time being. This matter should be used to train Lan Tong.

  Since Lan Tong is afraid of ghosts, and thus suspects that there are ghosts in the world, he taught the students "how ghosts form and move", let them experience ghosts firsthand, and never fear ghosts again.

  Teach them some ways to detect and hide. Whether he can catch the culprit is up to Lan Tong himself.

  Gu Jingyun didn't take this matter too seriously. In his opinion, it was just a trivial matter that his students had experienced in their long life, and it was easy to solve. As long as you overcome the fear of ghosts in your heart, this is just a small trick in the back house.

   So after he made sure that the students would no longer have the suspicion of ghosts in the world because of some visions, he stopped and let them investigate and collect evidence on their own.

   It's just that now it seems that they have found someone pretending to be a ghost, but they accidentally caused trouble.

  Gu Jingyun lowered his eyes and rubbed his fingers. He only hoped that this matter had something to do with Lan Hua's current wife and Lan Tong's stepmother. Otherwise, even if Lan Tong could escape punishment, it would not be too good in the future.

  Thinking about it, the carriage soon arrived at the blue house, and Xi Bao looked anxious, as if he wanted to urge but did not dare to speak.

Gu Jingyun got off the carriage, pondered for a moment, and then said to Baolu: "Lan Hua is not here, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the inner house, let's do things separately. I'll go pick up Lantong, you go visit Mrs. Lan. As for the two of you, follow me."

   Qu Weizhen and Qu Jingxi heard the words and quickly climbed off the carriage station behind Gu Jingyun, Gu Jingyun turned his head to look at Xi Bao.

   Xibao said quickly, "The little one also listens to Mr. Gu's arrangement."

   "What about the young master who followed your young master into trouble?"

   "They are all arranged in the guest room. Since they are not from our family, the wife and the others dare not do anything."

Gu Jingyun nodded slightly, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised: "Then you run again and invite the families of those young masters. They have been in the blue house for a day. Since Mrs. Lan is not feeling well, they are not good. keep interrupting."

   Xibao's eyes lit up, he immediately responded, and turned around to run.

   Gu Jingyun stopped him in disgust and said, "Let Erlin take you there."

  Students are stupid. I didn't expect the student's servant to be stupid. No wonder he was frightened by an ethereal ghost and caused so many troubles.
