Chapter 645 I almost forgot
Gu Wenyu smiled bitterly, Uncle Changping, before he came over, Uncle Changping was still thinking about today's questions, especially the last arithmetic question.
Last night, Rokuro even mentioned relevant policy issues. We should have discussions and exchanges with each other on weekdays. Uncle Changping didn't plan to come over tonight.
"Uncle, he has a very good attitude. He said that he can't get a place for junior students. He needs to go to bed early tonight and let the three of us go to bed early. I can't disturb him anymore."
If Uncle Chang Ping could say it, he would definitely not know if it had any connotation to Wen Yu, who wanted to compete for a junior student quota in his heart.
Gu Wenxuan shook his head in amusement, dropped the topic, took the two pieces of rice paper handed over by Gu Wenyu, and began to talk about the questions written by Gu Wenyu.
Ojiang was originally worried that the third brother-in-law said he didn't need to worry about him and was just an unimportant person, but just talking about it had some effect on his mood.
After a while, he discovered that his third brother-in-law was still talking about the topic as before, without any nonsense, repeatedly quoting scriptures, and speaking incisive sentences.
This meant that they really didn't take Gu Dalang's sudden appearance seriously. Even in the eyes of his third brother-in-law, it was not as important as talking about topics, reviewing the past and learning new things.
Don't tell me, Gu Wenxuan really forgot. If Gu Dahua hadn't mentioned it for a moment, he would have really forgotten that he asked Zhi Ming to find out the reason for Gu Dalang's visit that night.
On the evening of the third day, he handed in his papers and left the examination room. No one could hold him back from returning home. He was about to ask Zhiming if he had arranged two carriages, but Zhiming spoke first.
Because he came out early and had no classmates with him, when the two of them took a shortcut back to the house, he heard Zhi Ming continue to talk after packing up his things.
"...The eldest young master of the eldest house sent a message to the Zhao family before noon yesterday. The concierge of the Zhao family received the message, but he also replied that the second master is not in the city today.
He went back to the school where he was currently studying. Due to the county school year exams in the past three days, Master Li had not been in class there, and he did not stay in the school for long.
At about noon, I went to the car shop again and had lunch there. After that, I didn’t wait until the owner and wife of the car shop returned to the city from the village.
It was almost three o'clock in the morning when he left the big car shop. Instead of going back to the nearby grocery store, he called for a carriage not far from the big car shop and came directly here.
When I got here, I sat in the teahouse in front for a while, and spent ten cents on asking the boy at the teahouse to find out when the county preschool students would be taking exams.
After that, he left the teahouse. When he turned to the intersection where he was waiting last night, he seemed to be afraid of being seen by someone, and an uncle asked him where he was doing.
According to information from his in-laws' family and the school, he learned about the afternoon of the day before yesterday that the Yamen was not only looking for a clerk, but also a book clerk.
After he went back last night, the eldest lady still lived over there at the grocery store. The eldest lady asked him where he had been, but he only said that he was invited by his classmates.
This morning, the eldest son went to the shop where he was staying as a cashier as usual. He also went out when the second young master eldest son went to the grocery store.
After leaving home, I walked a while and rented a carriage. I don’t know if it was too expensive or something, but instead of returning to the village, I went back to the grocery store..."
In this way, even if Gu Dalang came here last night for the post of secretary, he didn't come for his father. He wanted to find this vacancy himself.
As expected, like father, like son, equally selfish and equally stupid. As of yesterday, when I inquired a little bit, I still didn't know that the recruitment was over.
Three days before the annual exam, even the son of the Zhao family participated in the county magistrate's exam. There was only one vacancy for the book office, why should he be hired? Is it possible that Gu Wenxuan can help the county government by opening up a vacancy in the office and do a favor? This family still likes to force others to make things difficult for them.
I didn’t expect that the Zhao family could have known the news in advance. He had been studying in the county school recently. How could he not have known about the news? There was an uncle Tong Sheng who had experience as a bookkeeper. He wanted to help early. Why didn’t even his father do it? After mentioning it, it was still his turn to go to Gu Dalang.
Whatever good thing he has in mind, return the book to the office, let alone nothing. If he has the chance, he will not put such a nail in the county government office to make his wife unhappy!
Gu Wenxuan was smoldering secretly, but his face was full of surprise. As soon as he knew what he was saying, he shook his head, "So that's what happened.
Leave him free and ignore him. Take back the manpower and ignore him. If Dajiang comes back later, and they haven't come back yet, you should stay and wait for them to return to the village together. ”
He knew it would be like this. That damn boy from Jia Xing ran away too fast. Uncle Hua (Gu Dahua) was busy with something, so he was the only one who stayed behind to accompany the two of them back to the village.
Zhou Changping and Gu Wenyu were wronged because Zhi Ming disliked them for being late in coming out for every exam. The two of them had agreed early on that whoever finished the exam would go back to the village first.
After all, a visitor from afar was arriving, but Gu Wenxuan couldn't resist being so polite and asked Zhiming to accompany Zhou Changping and Gu Wenyu back to the village on his behalf.
"Master?"
"Say."
"You really can't wait for them to go back together?" Zhi Ming secretly glanced at Gu Wenxuan's face, "Didn't Young Mistress ask Jiaxing to come and report to Ming yesterday to stabilize the third young master of the in-laws and the third young master of the Qi family?
Jia Xing also said that Miss Qifu and the others got along well with the young mistress, and the two third young masters also had a good time, and they even went hunting in the back mountains yesterday. ”
Gu Wenxuan glanced at him sideways as he kept walking. He was about to reach the door. He didn't mind mentioning, "It's not convenient for outsiders to stay in the back mountain."
Zhi Ming was stunned for a moment, slapped his forehead, and quickly admitted his mistake. He was careless. The butler couldn't always be in the back, and Brother Dali and the others wouldn't stop the guests.
There are some places in the back mountain that you can just wander around, but the third young master of the Qi family is not the third young master of the in-laws, so it would be unsightly if the third young master of the Qi family breaks in.
Even though the butler had asked Dali to pile up some areas with snow before the guests arrived, who knew whether the third young master of Qi Mansion would notice something fishy.
"Okay, don't make this mistake next time. You and Jiaxing are my right and left hands. You must think twice before doing anything. It will be too late by the time I punish you."
Gu Wenxuan gave a warning without forgetting to coax. As soon as the words came out, he stopped talking and walked straight to the courtyard where the couple lived.
Zhi Ming hurriedly followed, but he didn't dare to make any ulterior motives and ask his young master to return to the village later, otherwise he would forget important matters without thinking carefully.
With his brain, if he doesn't think twice about everything, sooner or later he will hinder the young master. He will have no shame to stay by the young master's side and serve the young master without being punished by the young master.
Are you honest?
Gu Wenxuan's eyes flashed with a smile when he saw Zhiming who followed him into the study and neatly put the books he had sorted out last night into boxes.
In fact, of the two book boys, compared to Jia Xing, Zhi Ming was easier to use. After all, he was the first to follow him, but he still needed to knock on it from time to time.
