Mr. Su took a pot of tea and occupied a gazebo by the lake. He sat comfortably in the pavilion tasting tea and enjoying the scenery. When he turned his head, he saw Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu walking side by side by the lake. He did not know what Li Baolu said What, Gu Jingyun looked at her sideways with a smile on his face, his eyes were gentle, completely different from his usual cold and aloof.

Mr. Su looked away silently, took a sip of tea, and felt that this rare tea did not seem so tasty anymore.

Really, knowing that there are many people in the academy, he didn't pay attention to the influence. Mr. Su really wanted to pretend that he didn't see those two people, but seeing that they had already seen him and walked over, he could only sigh helplessly, and squeezed out his face. Smile to face the couple.

"It's rare that Mr. Gu still has this free time," Mr. Su sighed, "You are young and full of energy after all, unlike me who can go to the women's college to take some less important courses after taking the Juren class. "

Gu Jingyun was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "That's because Mr. Su is too diligent, but Gu thinks that the eighth-grade students are already adults, so we have less to worry about, and naturally it won't take up too much time."

Gu Jingyun never thought of giving them lessons according to the courses arranged by the academy. They are already Juren, and they have already read the books required by the imperial examination.

The content that is not required but may be tested is not in the courses arranged by the academy. Fortunately, the students above the eighth grade have the right to freely arrange the courses and time, so he overturned all those courses and changed the teaching method. , and then changed the teaching time.

Basically, he will list some must-read books and articles for them, and after they have read them, he will ask questions to evaluate what they have learned, and then ask them to ask questions, and let everyone discuss the answers or let him answer them directly.

In addition, he will also answer questions accumulated from reading other books, and regularly teach them some skills in writing scriptures and strategies, as well as mathematics, law, water conservancy, art of war and other miscellaneous subjects.

At first glance, it seems that there are a lot of things to teach and he will be very busy, but in fact they have three years, so these teaching tasks can be arranged slowly.

The most important thing is that he happened to be involved in all the things they want to learn, and at present, he can answer the questions they raised, and he doesn't need to spend too much time looking for answers, so the students' time is tight, and I feel There is a lot to learn, and life is fulfilling.

But Gu Jingyun himself is really not very busy. Although his workload has increased a lot, his efficiency has always been high. If he adjusts his time again, he can still find time to relax with Baolu every day, go shopping and buy delicious food.

He would guide the children in the first grade to tell interesting stories about their lives, and spend a lot of time helping them solve all kinds of problems in life. It was because they were children, the weakest group in the world, and they needed help. protection of.

But the Juren class is different. The youngest of them is older than him. Although he is a student, he is an adult and can take responsibility for himself. The tuition fee is considered responsible.

He wouldn't want to stick to them all the time like Mr. Su and the others, urging them to study quickly.

The future is his own, and he has fulfilled the duty of admonishment, whether to indulge in this bustling Vanity Fair in the capital, or continue to work hard depends on their individual choices and willpower.

Seeing that Gu Jingyun was so relaxed and comfortable, Mr. Su couldn't help sighing, "Mr. Su can still think about it."

But he couldn't help but want to teach more Jinshi, make contributions to the academy, and accumulate reputation for himself.

And this also requires a great price.

He is so old, and he still has to read a lot of literature and books every day, just because he is afraid of falling behind, and he can't answer the questions raised by the students.

But the older you get, the worse your memory will be. Some knowledge has only been seen before, but it is still forgotten when students ask about it.

Unlike Gu Jingyun, who is young and energetic, but also has a good memory and a good brain. He can not only read ten lines at a glance, but also has a good memory. He remembers it once, thinks deeply twice, and reads it a third time.

Under such conditions, ordinary people may not have the patience to finish watching it once and watch it a second time. However, Gu Jingyun is a very self-disciplined person. He can force himself to watch it three or four times until he will not forget it. until.

So his brain is like the library in the academy. Most of the questions asked by the students can be answered from him.

For this, Mr. Su can only envy and hate him. No wonder Mr. Huang has been displeased with him, even if he is generous, he can't help being jealous.

Whenever Mr. Su is jealous, he can't see him living so comfortably and smoothly, but he is really impeccable, so he can only cast his eyes on Li Baolu, "Mr. Li's class performance this year is also very good, it's a pity."

Li Baolu tilted her head in confusion, "What a pity?"

"It's a pity that they are not young anymore. I don't know how many of them will come to the fifth grade in the next semester. After all, not everyone can accept an engaged girl to come to the academy to attend classes."

Li Baolu was silent, feeling a little depressed.

Mr. Su stroked his beard in satisfaction after seeing this, it was very good, he finally blocked Gu Jingyun, it would be even better if this powerful couple could solve this problem by the way.

Seeing that Baolu's mood turned cloudy, Gu Jingyun couldn't help but squinted his eyes, and looked at Mr. Su suspiciously.

Mr. Su pretended not to notice, picked up his small teapot and said with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Su will not bother you two, you can play slowly."

Li Baolu sighed, "This year, two girls in our class have dropped out of school. I heard that there are more girls in the fifth grade, and one class even has only 18 students left."

In the Yongmei class she brought, the girls were all between the ages of fourteen and sixteen. It was time to discuss marriage and get married. If they got engaged, they had to go home and prepare to marry. My daughter (future daughter-in-law) continues to come to school.

The fifth grade students are one year older.

There is basically no solution to this matter, only to wait for the development of the girls' school to be bigger, and the age of girls to enter school is one or two years earlier, or wait until the next generation. The female students who are now leaving the girls' school have such regrets in themselves In the future, they will not let their daughter or daughter-in-law leave such regrets again.

Since there is no solution, Gu Jingyun will naturally not let her continue thinking, but immediately changed the topic and said: "Master and mother are going back to the capital, do you think we are going to start cleaning their yard?"

Bai Yitang lives in Qixia Courtyard, which is the first entrance on the left, while Qin Wenyin lives in the second entrance on the left. Because the garden is full of plum trees, she named it Luomei Garden. Plum blossoms are in full bloom this winter. It's beautiful, but it's a pity she didn't see it.

As expected, Li Baolu's attention was diverted, she stroked her chin and pondered: "If master and mother are going to get married, will they live separately?"

At least they can't all live in the Gu Mansion, right?

Gu Jingyun nodded, and said with a smile: "Mother will definitely move to uncle's place and marry from Qin's residence." In the end, marrying into Gu's residence is the right way.

"I'll start tidying up the yard when I get back."

It's just that the two who were expected to arrive in mid-March have never been seen, and Zhao Ning has finished the palace examination and there is no news of the two of them.

Not only Li Baolu, but also Gu Jingyun's complexion became darker day by day. Just when they couldn't help but send someone to look for them along the way, the letters from the two finally arrived in their hands.

After Gu Jingyun opened the letter, he held his breath in his chest and took a long time to breathe out slowly.

Unlike when they went by sea and water, this time they took water and land, stopping and stopping along the way, and visiting the mountains and rivers along the way. Originally, they expected to arrive in the capital in mid-March, but when they arrived in the capital, Bai Yitang Occasionally, Qin Wenyin sighed that this is the season when peonies are in full bloom. I don’t know how grand Chang’an is at this time?

Then Bai Yitang turned around and took Qin Wenyin to Chang'an...

They wrote to Gu Jingyun when they arrived in Chang'an Baiyitang, expressing that they would stay in Chang'an for a period of time, and they didn't expect to return to the capital until April.

And in order not to let them have the conditions to urge them, Bai Yitang tightly clutched the pigeons that he carried with him, and refused to let them fly, preferring to spend more money and time to deliver letters through the post station.

Gu Jingyun was speechless for a while, and finally packed the letter and handed it to Nanfeng, and said with a somber face, "Send it to the Qin Mansion to uncle, and tell him not to worry anymore, mother and the others are safe."

Nan Feng didn't dare to ask in detail, so he bowed and retreated after receiving the letter.

Although the master's unreliability makes people very angry, but at least he knows that they are safe, so Gu Jingyun's complexion has improved a lot.

Zhao Ning felt the most deeply. He felt that the mountain that was pressing on his body turned into a stone, and the pressure dropped suddenly, which made his tense back unstoppable.

"Your results in the imperial examination are good, and you are the third in the second class. If there are no accidents in the imperial examination, you will be able to be admitted to the Shuji. If you seek to be released, you can also find a good county. What do you think now?"

Zhao Ning lowered his head and held his hands together: "The student wants to stay in the capital."

Gu Jingyun nodded slightly, "That's fine, your family doesn't count on you to be an official to make money, and the Imperial Academy is noble, which is in line with your temperament."

Zhao Ning breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said, "The student is preparing for the imperial examination."

Gu Jingyun nodded, "There will be about two months of vacation after the imperial examination. Have you decided whether to return to your hometown?"

"Yes," Zhao Ning said proudly and happily, with a big smile on his face, "The student plans to take Yuan Niang back. I haven't been back for more than three years. This time I go back not only to tell my grandfather and parents the good news about high school. , but also to worship the ancestors to comfort the ancestors, and to enter the genealogy with Yuan Niang."

Thinking of Zhao Ning's interesting family, Gu Jingyun couldn't help smiling, "Your wife and I have prepared some souvenirs for you, and they are for Mr. Zhao."

Thinking of his grandfather, Zhao Ning blushed and said, "Thank you sir."
