Gu Jingyun looked at the shaking curtain with gentle eyes, and a petite figure was projected on the curtain. He could even imagine how the little girl guarding the shaft of the car was shaking her legs and staring at the busy people in boredom.

Since the first emperor died of illness and his uncle's family returned to the capital safely, the hostility in Gu Jingyun's heart gradually dissipated, and he paid more attention to Zhao Ning.

"Zigui, I hope you can understand this world better. No matter what you choose to do in the future, you have to think about your original intention, the purpose you wanted at the beginning."

Zhao Ning was sitting upright, and for the first time confronted him and asked him, "What is the purpose of the gentleman?"

Zhao Ning looked at Gu Jingyun with piercing eyes, his eyes were less gentle and more solemn.

Gu Jingyun is a fourth-rank attendant appointed by the late emperor, and he is afraid that he will never leave the Imperial Academy in his life, let alone be promoted and take real power.

The teacher of the prince, the teacher of the emperor in the future, will naturally be feared by many people, but in fact he has very little real power, and his power is probably not as high as that of a fourth-rank doctor. Do you really want to be a teacher for the rest of your life? Well, then what is your purpose as a teacher?

Provide pillars of talent for the country?

Not to mention Gu Jingyun's answer, even he didn't believe it. Zhao Ning looked at Gu Jingyun with piercing eyes.

Gu Jingyun looked at him approvingly and nodded, and said with gentle eyes: "When I was young, I wanted to be powerful and high, because that was the only way to protect my family. Later, I realized that it was impossible in my capacity, so I wanted to be an emperor teacher. I like to answer questions for you, and the status of Emperor Teacher can protect me and my family."

"These goals are very clear, but the further I go, the more I see, and the deeper I think, I sometimes have doubts. So what else can I do for the future? It's not limited to people."

Gu Jingyun spoke slowly, but Zhao Ning was still full of confusion, "It's not about people, so what else? Animals and plants?"

Gu Jingyun thought for a while and said: "The mountains and rivers are all things. I know that injustice exists from time to time, and it will be the same after thousands of years, but I hope that even if it is unfair, the bottom people will not be humble, and their lives will not be threatened by the high-ranking ones." , except for disease and fate, no one can take another's life;"

"I hope that even if they are poor, the poorest people can fill the stomachs of their families, and they will not be naked or hungry;"

"I hope that no matter how big the natural disaster is, the most miserable survivors will not change their sons to eat, cut their flesh to feed their mothers;"

"I also hope that no matter how poor the family is, every child can go to school to read and write, regardless of gender."

Zhao Ning's heart was pounding, and he said dryly, "If every child can go to school and read, is that still poverty?"

Gu Jingyun looked at him with a smile, and Zhao Ning couldn't help but swallowed, shook his head and said, "Sir, you, this is not an extravagant wish at all, but a fantasy."

Gu Jingyun looked at the mountains and forests outside and said: "I also hope that the mountains and rivers will be greener, the vitality will be more vibrant, and the river will be clearer. All these are delusions in the eyes of people at the time, but as long as you work hard, maybe one day It can come true. If you don’t do it, it’s really delusional.”

Zhao Ning opened his mouth and asked after a while, "Then what is the master going to do?"

Gu Jingyun said with a slight smile: "A person's power is limited after all, and I can only live for a mere hundred years. Time is short and hope is slim, but I have seeds, and after being sown, they can grow into towering trees. More seeds can be spread, passed on from generation to generation, and the efforts from generation to generation will one day create this era.”

Zhao Ning felt that the husband was worthy of being a child, even if he had won the first prize, he was still a big child, otherwise how could he be so whimsical?

But looking at the quiet and gentle gentleman, as a student, he couldn't open his mouth to sneer, and could only silently think about what he could do to help.

Seeing him meditating, Gu Jingyun didn't bother him, got up and got out of the carriage, and said with a smile to Li Baolu who was sitting on the shaft with his legs dangling, "Walk with me."

Li Baolu jumped out of the carriage, raised her chin slightly and held out a hand to him with a smile, like a prince inviting a princess.

Gu Jingyun smiled slightly, put his hand on her little hand, and jumped out of the carriage as soon as she pulled her.

The two held hands without any shyness and went to enjoy the snow.

The chief guard looked at it with emotion, "It's good to be young."

Yuan Shanting also glanced at them, twitched his eyes and said, "If I didn't say it, I would have thought they had been married for more than ten years, and they didn't look like newlyweds at all."

Hearing this, Bai Yitang raised his eyelids and glanced at him, saying: "You have good eyesight. Seriously, they have been married for eleven years, and it will be twelve years after the new year."

Yuan Shanting and Su Anjian couldn't help but widen their eyes, and the chief guard laughed and said, "Hero Yuan, don't you know that Mrs. Gu is a child bride, and I heard that she was destined to be Mrs. Gu's daughter-in-law when she was three years old. We lived and grew up together."

How would they know?

The chief guard thinks about it too, the world is different from the officialdom, who in the officialdom doesn't know the situation of the Qin family?

Gu Jingyun, who was leading Li Baolu for a walk in the forest, tilted his head and looked at Li Baolu, "Will the world in your dreams come true?"

"Yes," Li Baolu nodded affirmatively, "Just wait and see."

That was the place where she lived in her previous life. Although it was not as good as Gu Jingyun said, it was almost the same.

At least ordinary people live a much better life than in this world.

Gu Jingyun squeezed her palm and said, "I hope I can do something for this world."

"Then do it," Li Baolu supported him, "You are so smart, you will definitely succeed."

Gu Jingyun smiled, "You are right, then would you like to be with me?"

Li Baolu nodded fiercely, "I am willing."

Gu Jingyun held her hand tightly, smiled and pulled her in one direction, "I remember there are some flowers there, let's pick them to decorate the carriage."

"There will be flowers in this season? Well, there are flowers," Li Baolu looked at the dog's tail grass sticking out of the snow, and went up to dig the snow to break it. "The dog's tail flower is also a flower."

Gu Jingyun watched his wife stumble and run to pick the flowers, and couldn't help laughing, the depression that was still accumulated in his chest disappeared. His life was bitter, but no matter how hard it was, how could it be as hard as these people?

The young couple finally picked a lot of dog's tail flowers and went back. Zhao Ning helped tie the grass and put it by the car window with an aggrieved expression. He also took out an urn and put some snow in it as a vase. The planted grass was placed in the middle of the low table. Yes, it was grass. He firmly refused to admit that it was a flower.

Bai Yitang plucked the dog's tail grass and didn't say anything, but brought a bunch of dog's tail grass to his apprentice when he came back for dinner.

Li Baolu hugged the grass in her arms and looked at her master numbly.

Bai Yitang waved his hand and said, "Take it and play."

Gu Jingyun held back a smile and took the grass from her arms, and accompanied her to fill the entire carriage.

Bai Yitang shook his head and sighed when he saw this, worried about the aesthetics of his apprentice and her husband, what kind of taste is this car full of dogtail grass?

Little did she know that Li Baolu was sticking out her tongue and whispering to Gu Jingyun: "Master's aesthetics is so strange that he would give someone a dog's tail flower. Fortunately, I was the one who received the gift. If someone else had thrown it away."

"That's because you picked it as a flower first."

Isn't that what you want?

Li Baolu looked at Gu Jingyun's profile, and swallowed the words wisely.

After dinner, Gu Jingyun sent someone to invite the old village chief, and he wanted to teach them how to nitrate fur.

The old village head was worried, and brought two younger children over. He didn't know what these nobles were looking for him at such a late hour, but he always felt that it was not a good thing.

Then……

The old village chief's eyes widened, and he asked cautiously with his lips trembling, "You, you mean to ask us to tan the fur?"

Gu Jingyun nodded, and looked at the old village head with a smile in his eyes, "If the old man is willing, he can choose a few clever villagers, and I will teach them."

Gu Jingyun paused and said: "It's best to be middle-aged, young people, teenagers and children, and then choose a few girls. Girls are dexterous, and they may learn faster than others. We will only stay here for one night. , I will continue to shovel snow and leave tomorrow.”

The old village head had tears in his eyes, and he was about to kneel down to Gu Jingyun when he got up.

Li Baolu hurriedly helped him up, "You don't have to be like this, old man, after all, we are the ones who have disturbed your peace. Isn't your kneeling down to discourage me?"

Gu Jingyun glanced at the sky and said: "It's getting late, the old man should hurry up and choose someone, and bring some rabbit skins."

The old village head responded, turned around quickly and left on crutches, this time he walked quickly without letting others help him.

The round-faced little guard sniffed and brought some things, "Master Gu, this is what you want."

Gu Jingyun nodded and said: "Put it on the ground, thank you very much."

The round-faced little guard scratched his head and said with a chuckle, "No, no, it's Mr. Gu who is kind."

The round-faced little guard saw that Gu Jingyun skillfully separated the pile of things on the ground, so he couldn't help asking curiously, "Master Gu, how do you know how to tan the fur?"

These guards will also do simple tanning. After all, they have to go out to hunt or something, but that is just a simple tanning, so that the fur is too rough to affect the later tanning.

However, the preparations prepared by Mr. Gu are obviously not as simple as simple nitration.

"The climate in Qiongzhou is mild, but sometimes it's cold. We don't have to worry about food and drink with the little money, but we can't do it if we want to make fur clothes and handguards. Master, the old man, often goes hunting in the mountains, he can simply tan Then take it to the market to exchange money and food." Gu Jingyun said with a smile: "My wife went there with me, and I saw that those people can earn double or even double when they sell the fur that has been carefully tanned. Money, so she felt that she was losing money, so she insisted on tossing the furs saved by her master, and found countless books with many recipes for tanning, and finally found a few usable recipes.
