If you can recognize and distinguish people, you will know people. Then it will not be difficult to use and manage people. This is what is called "knowing people and assigning them to the right positions, so that they can make the best use of their talents."

But talking about knowing people and assigning them to the right positions and making the best use of their talents is going too far, so Gu Wenxuan had to bring the topic back to the most important point - connections.

Being able to study at Jingshan Academy, the network of friends you make is not comparable to that of studying alongside him. They are real teachers and classmates.

After talking about all sorts of things, Gu Wenxuan didn't know how much Li Ge'er had listened to, but it was really late and the Bai Mansion's carriage had already arrived.

Besides, Li Ge’er is not Dajiang after all.

If it were Dajiang, as the third brother-in-law, he would only need to say that it is not enough to be well-educated, but also necessary to have wide connections and be able to make a living. Dajiang would have understood what he meant.

Especially Xiaohe, the little brat is very cunning and is used to climbing up the ladder. He can't write policy papers, but he can write an article on the meaning of the scriptures and distribute it everywhere.

What about Master, Sir, Teacher, Uncles, and Big Brother? It's as if he's afraid that someone will forget that there is such a little elf like him.

Watching Li Ge'er get on the Bai family's carriage and the carriage gradually go away, Gu Wenxuan suddenly thought about how his youngest brother-in-law would be acting like a good boy at home at this time.

Just when he was thinking about how his brother-in-law would react when he saw his third brother coming today, before Gu Wenxuan could turn around and go back, another brother-in-law appeared.

It's strange, you are the only one bringing the book boy back?
"It's time to light the lights. Candidates are not allowed to stay in the academy." Seeing that his third brother-in-law was looking in the direction he was coming from, Dajiang quickly quickened his pace and walked closer to give the answer.

After saying this, seeing that Zhiming was about to leave, he turned around and glanced at the servant behind him, motioning for him to go to the county school with Zhiming to wait for Zhou Changping and Gu Wenyu to come out.

If he were to say, he was such an old man and lived so close, there was no need for the servant to accompany him back and then go back to pick him up when he came back.

Unfortunately, the third sister had repeatedly ordered that neither he nor her brother-in-law could be left without someone by their side. Even if the sky fell, there had to be at least a servant with them.

"Let Zhimo go with me. It will look better and won't make me look like I don't know the ways of the world and will just run away after the exam."

Seeing this, Gu Wenxuan nodded with relief, and at the same time pulled him to walk inside, "When you came out, were there still many candidates inside?"

"There were quite a few candles lit, probably because most of the people hadn't come out yet. In the exam room where I was, as soon as someone handed in their paper and left, the candles were extinguished.

I saw that I couldn't stay at the academy anyway, and I didn't know when they would come out. I had to get up early tomorrow, so I might as well come back first. At first it didn't seem like it was the family carriage?"

It's no wonder that Dajiang asked this. When he was walking back from the county school, he saw a carriage parked outside the gate and heading in the opposite direction.

If the family has a carriage, it generally will not be parked outside the main gate. People are used to entering and exiting through the side door.

"It's indeed not. It's the carriage from Mr. Bai's mansion. Li Ge'er's uncle came to pick him up and take him back to the village. I've asked him to take the letter back so that my family won't worry."

Aren’t you afraid that your third sister will worry?
"threshold."

I won't laugh at you, and I'm deliberately changing the subject by talking about the threshold. Dajiang suppressed his laughter and deliberately lifted one foot high to step over the threshold.

This kid, I didn’t want to ask you how you did on the exam today, I wanted you to go take a bath! Gu Wenxuan glanced at him, "Didn’t you fail the exam?"

"Hehe..." Dajiang shook his head, "It should be okay today. If things go well in the next two days, I should be able to keep my place as a student on the government stipend."

Not bad, she even imitated his tone of voice! Gu Wenxuan couldn't help but patted his shoulder and said, "Hurry up, I can't let you get cold, otherwise your third sister won't forgive me."

"How could that be possible! Everyone knows that my third sister never speaks loudly, has the best temper, and listens to you in everything. She is the most gentle and virtuous." After hearing this, Gu Wenxuan found himself speechless.

How can he say that his wife is not gentle and virtuous? Isn't that just contradicting himself?

"Don't you think so?"

"How could that be possible!" Gu Wenxuan imitated his brother-in-law's tone and borrowed two words from him, "Is there anything wrong with my wife? But you, Dajiang, are going to pick your wife with wide eyes."

"I'm not in a hurry. A real man only worries about not having a good name, not having a wife. Anyway, it's too early to have children. It's not too late to think about these things when I'm eighteen.

Nothing is more important than studies nowadays. Whether I can set a good example for Xiaohe depends on me, as his elder brother. Some things can be forced, but some things cannot be fought for.

Having my husband, my third sister and you certainly makes me a popular person, but there is no such thing as marrying up to someone you like and not expecting anything in return for your efforts.

Not to mention a marriage that is not a good match, even if the couples are originally a good match, some people are simply too reluctant to marry. My father suffered a great loss from this.

They are such a family. No one in the Li family in the upper village is stronger than my father. They just sold their daughter at a loss and wanted to have a long-term relationship. However, they never expected that my father was not favored.

My mother had only been married for a short time when they stopped being human. If you are greedy for temporary gains, you will definitely suffer hidden harm. Now you can't get rid of them. "

Well said, but it’s a pity there is no reward. You have missed another opportunity to know the truth, brother-in-law!
While Gu Wenxuan was secretly happy, he had to admit that the child had matured again. He knew how to learn lessons from his father and had a preliminary understanding of marriage.

Not bad!

Not even fifteen years old.

It’s great to have your own opinion!
This child has grown up, and what is rare and precious is that he still knows how to be a good brother and set a good example for Xiaohe. It is not in vain that I love this brother-in-law!

"Hurry up and take a medicinal bath." Gu Wenxuan reminded him, and in a good mood he did not forget to coax his brother-in-law, "In addition to study, your health is also very important.

When you can run three laps without panting, I, your brother-in-law, will keep my word and never leave you behind when we sneak off to see the master alone.

If you want to do something later, but your sister won't agree, I, your brother-in-law, will stand on your side and speak well of you. Be good, go in, the water is getting cold."

Third brother-in-law, I am not the third sister, and I am not Xiaohe. You look scary like this, okay? Zhou Yujiang, who was pushed forward by Gu Wenxuan, couldn't help laughing.

"Still laughing?" The silly boy was so happy even without any coaxing. "Hurry up, take a bath early, eat early and then read some books.

Judging from today's test paper, tomorrow's test questions may be very biased, especially the questions on law. There should be a lot of ambiguous questions like that."

Upon hearing this, Dajiang stopped walking and turned around, impatiently asking, "Brother-in-law, what about the policy discussion?"

Want to listen?
Little guy, I can’t cure you!

Gu Wenxuan tried his best to hold back his laughter: "Go take a bath first, and then wait until you are full. You can ask anything you want. The hours before the hour of Hai are all yours. No one will be waiting after that."

"...Okay, wait for me." (End of this chapter)
