Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

The first day of the exam went smoothly. Before 3:15 pm, Gu Wenxuan handed in his paper and left the county school, saving the county school a spare candle.

Because the exam started late, today's county exam was generally very humane and allowed students to hand in their papers before candlelight before Youshi, but he really couldn't sit still.

Before leaving the county school, he was worried about being caught by a teacher, so he didn't even go to the building behind the examination hall (dormitory) and went straight back to his own house.

On the way back to his house, he was not surprised when he heard Zhiming mention that Li Ge'er had not returned to the village yet. This kid would want to know his father's performance in the annual exam even if he stayed for one more day.

If possible, if his father doesn't send him back and he doesn't miss his grandparents, mother and others at home, the child can wait for his father to finish the exam the day after tomorrow and go home together.

Looking at the sky again, although the snow has stopped, it looks like it is getting dark. It would be better to let the child go back in the carriage as soon as possible, so that I can bring the letter to him.

Therefore, when he met Zhou Yuli at his own house, Gu Wenxuan told him directly without any intention of keeping him in suspense that his father should have done quite well in the exam.

When he left the examination room, he looked back and saw Uncle Changping sitting in the back, concentrating on copying the draft carefully.

Judging from Uncle Changping's state at the time, he should have finished answering the paper smoothly, but Uncle Changping also had a habit of not coming out until the last quarter of an hour before the deadline.

Zhou Yuli also knew his father's preference.

It was not yet 4:45 PM, and there was still half an hour left until You time. The city gates closed earlier in winter, and if he didn't go home, his family would be worried.

He simply didn't wait for his father to leave the examination hall to see him, and went home alone, and quickly asked his servant to go back to the cross-courtyard to get the luggage he brought back from Jingshan Academy.

Afterwards, with fewer outsiders around, Zhou Yuli directly asked his cousin-in-law Gu Wenxuan to help look after his father, and to say hello to Gu Wenyu and Dajiang in the village on his behalf.

As for the carriage for the return trip, there was no need to prepare one. When they went to the county school to take the annual examination, he had also stayed at the home of his great uncle, Mr. Bai.

Before he came back from having lunch at his great uncle's house, his uncle had already said that he was going to the village and asked him to go back with him, as the carriage would be arriving soon.

Maybe when he was not at home, his grandmother and his mother had already sent the New Year gifts to his grandparents and uncles, and returned to the village without even taking away the return gifts.

When he met his grandmother before, she said that he had let his mouth out and that his father didn't want him to live there because he was afraid of being pushed around and hid away.

Like Dajiang, Li Ge'er had nothing bad to say in front of his brother-in-law Gu Wenxuan. He just honestly said that his uncle blamed his father for being too polite.

On the contrary, his great uncle was happy that his father let him spend more time with his brother-in-law and Dajiang, and asked him to seek more advice from his brother-in-law during the holidays at home.

Speaking of this, Li Ge'er has a lot to say.

It’s just that he hasn’t been back for some time. Last night, his father stopped him and talked to him for a long time, so he didn’t have time to chat with his brother-in-law. Now, he wants to go home first.

That's it?

This child, I thought he had encountered some difficulties.

Gu Wenxuan couldn't help but laugh and patted Li Ge'er on the shoulder, "Wait for me to go home the day after tomorrow. At most, it will be after the Little New Year. I will definitely be at home.

It won’t be easy to talk about anything you want to talk about then. Go home and spend some time with your elders and have a good rest for two days. After the Little New Year, I will test you. If you can’t answer, haha!”

Frightened by Gu Wenxuan's sneer, Li Ge'er subconsciously shrank his neck, then smiled, "Anyway, you don't hit my palm with a ruler, so I'm not afraid." "This is a different time. You're one year older after the New Year. I won't punish you with a ruler, but I will use a stick to beat you. Wait, I'll write a letter to your sister.

You can take it back and give it to Jiaxing and his father, or to Dahua. There is nothing important written in it, just tell your sister that I will be home at night as soon as possible. "

Before Gu Wenxuan finished his words, Li Ge'er had already helped him take out the cut rice paper from the paper box beside him and spread it on the desk.

Seeing this, Gu Wenxuan did not waste any time grinding the ink stick on the inkstone. When he thought it was almost done, he took a brush from the pen holder and started writing the letter.

At this point, Li Ge'er didn't bother to read what he was writing, turned around and went to the table and chairs beside him, and took a book from the coffee table between the two chairs.

He had just flipped through less than twenty pages when Gu Wenxuan, who was sitting at the desk, had already finished writing the letter in no time. He was really fast.

"I want to take this one home to read?"

"There is more than just this one. I found it originally to give to you. You should take this one home and read it carefully. Besides these, I have more at home."

I regretted taking the book back to read. What should I do? Li Ge'er suddenly remembered the days when he studied with Gu Wenxuan.

At the same time, he didn't even dare to ask about the reading experience of these books, or whether Dajiang had read them thoroughly.

Without asking, he could imagine that Dajiang, the bookworm, must be far ahead of him, and the gap between his two brothers would be even bigger.

But, Li Geer couldn't help but ask a question that had been hidden in his heart for days, "Brother-in-law, what do you say I should come back and learn from you?"

"Not very good. Brother Li, don't question your own talent for studying. Uncle Lin and I have been exchanging letters. If you are not suitable for Jingshan Academy, then so be it.

The problem is that Jingshan Academy is a very suitable place for you to study. The article you brought back yesterday, not to mention the writing style, has made great progress in terms of the substance of your words.

Don't compare yourself with Dajiang. It's not that Dajiang is smarter than you. Although he is one year younger than you, he has experienced more than you because of your different family backgrounds.

So he works very hard and is full of energy, determined to support the family. When he reaches a certain level, he will definitely be inferior to you. You are now accumulating strength.

When you have accumulated enough knowledge, you will have enough stamina. Don't think too much, lay a solid foundation first, and discuss knowledge with your classmates in the academy.

Regardless of whether you can learn from others through communication with your classmates, if you listen more, you will naturally gain more knowledge, which is something you cannot learn by just being around me.

The reason why Dajiang has been living and eating in the county school except for holidays is that he lacks learning in this aspect. In fact, it is not good for him. Recently, I have been thinking about spending some time in the academy.

If you have the opportunity, it would be better if you can go abroad to study. It is not enough to just study hard. After all, you are still young and there is a lot more to learn outside of books besides the knowledge in books.

For example, if someone only studies hard, turns a deaf ear to the world outside, does not work hard, and does not know the difference between grains, do you believe that even if this person becomes the top scholar, his future will be limited?

Things like how to get along well with your classmates without being at a disadvantage may seem like small things, but in a big way, when you enter the career world, you will face more complicated interactions with your colleagues.

Now, including the interactions with the teachers, there are teachers and classmates from all kinds of backgrounds in the academy, which naturally helps you learn how to identify people first…" (End of this chapter)
