Whether the Gu family dares to dare or not is the Gu family’s business, but Xiao Chengyi’s attitude was low enough. In addition, Su Yue reconciled the atmosphere quickly eased and became happy.
However, Xiao Chengyi was called away by Mr. Gu and played chess after sitting for a while.
Gu Yanwen followed him, while the Gu family was busy going there.
After they left, Su Yue asked, “Why don’t you see your second cousin?”
Old Mrs. Gu smiled, “The autumn examination is coming soon, your second cousin is busy reading books.”
Mrs. Gu said, “Fortunately, Dr. Li will help with the treatment, and I will not miss this autumn examination.”
Mrs. Gu smiled, “I see Xing’er’s diligence, this autumn examination will definitely be able to go to high school.”
Mrs. Gu also hopes that her son can get a good ranking, otherwise, with the Gu family’s family, she will marry the granddaughter of Old Mrs. Ye’s tutor Ye, which is really aggrieved by the girl.
Mrs. Gu put down the teacup, glanced at Mrs. Gu, and smiled, “How could you praise your family like this? It’s not something that you should make a joke about our Gu family being arrogant.”
Mrs. Gu said, “This is not what I praise, it’s the master. The master said that Xing’er has been unable to go out in the past two months because of his broken arm. He has been reading books with peace of mind. The articles he has made are more profitable and deeper than before. The old man is openly asking Xing’er to continue his efforts, and privately told the master that Xing’er is really a big improvement. It’s a blessing to lose his horse. He really said it’s a good thing.”
“I think Xing’er is full of energy and wants to get a good reputation to marry the granddaughter of the old lady Ye’s grandfather.”
Mrs. Gu sighed, “In previous years, Old Mrs. Ye was the chief examiner. This time, because Xing’er participated in the imperial examination, in order to avoid suspicion, Old Mrs. Ye refused to take the position of chief examiner. Xing’er was too bad, so it was too sorry for Old Mrs. Ye.”
Su Yue felt that Old Mrs. Ye refused to take the position of chief examiner, not only because her cousin participated in the imperial examination, but the emperor was afraid of Xiao Chengyi, but as she married Xiao Chengyi, her father and General Shen also stood in Xiao Chengyi’s camp. The Ye family and Gu family were in a marriage, and they were also related to Xiao Chengyi. In addition, the Ning Palace, Ding Palace, and Jin Palace…
More and more people were getting close to Xiao Chengyi, and they were all important people in the court. How could the emperor not be careful?
The emperor sent her father away and took back the military power in her father’s hands. Old Master Ye must be worried that the emperor would target the Ye family. Even if Old Master Ye did not refuse, the emperor was eight out of ten of the examiners of the autumn examination this time. Jiu will not leave it to Old Master Ye.
Su Yue asked, “How long will it take for the autumn examination?”
Mrs. Gu said, “According to previous years, it has only been half a month, but this time the plague broke out in Kyoto. Some ministers suggested that the emperor postpone the delay of ten days and half a month, and the specific date has not been decided yet.”
It would be great if it could delay half a month, although Gu Yanxing’s arm has recovered.More will not affect writing articles
, but you can recover more time and be more secure. Fate and fame are important, and your arms are equally important. You must not leave any sequelae.
Su Yue heard that there was still half a month left, so there was no problem. If she was really worried, she could use some rare medicinal materials and make some ointments for Dr. Li to use for her second cousin, which would be even more foolproof.
After chatting for a while, they talked about other things. Everyone was talking and laughing. When it was time for lunch, the maid came over and said, “Old Madam, the food is ready.”
Old Maid Gu said, “It’s time for lunch, but I haven’t come yet. I must be fascinated by playing chess.”
Old Maid Gu sent the maid to invite him, and the maid came back and said, “The old man said he would come back after playing that game of chess.”
He waited for another quarter of an hour, and when the old lady wanted to send someone to urge him for the second time, Old Maid Gu came back.
As soon as they entered the house, Su Yue asked, “Who won the game of chess just now?”
This is also what everyone wants to know.
Xiao Chengyi said, “I lost for my husband.”
Su Yue said, “That’s my grandfather who won.”
Old Master Gu smiled, “You win by Yue’er.”
Su Yue was puzzled, “I didn’t participate in chess, how could it be me who won?”
Old Master Gu sat down and smiled, “I’m afraid you’re waiting for a hurry. King Ming lets go and loses half a son, otherwise there will be less than half an hour in this game and you won’t be able to decide the outcome.”
