Female supremacy: leading the whole family to change their family
Chapter 33 Renting a Shop
As the Gu family's fields grew larger and larger, Mother Gu became too busy to handle it.
Gu's father and his family haven't been to the fields for a long time, which makes people in Gujia Village envious and gossip.
No matter how much they gossip, they can’t control the Gu family. They even feel envious and jealous when they see that the Gu family is employing servants.
The Gu family is getting richer and richer, and has also gained fame and honor. Of course, they dare not do anything reckless, after all, they are still under the pressure of Village Chief Gu.
What's more, Gu Yao also rented out her family's land to some poor people in Gujia Village, allowing them to store some food and earn some money.
Therefore, Village Chief Gu has always been very good to the Gu family, hoping that the Gu family will become more and more prosperous so that they can lead their Gujia Village to great heights.
As the Gu family began to employ servants, many people wanted to marry into the Gu family, and even Gu Yun and Gu Ying were favored by some people.
As for Gu Yun and Gu Ying, the Gu family will not marry them to other villages casually.
Gu Yao is indeed a bit vain and doesn't want her own brother to live a farming life.
Although farming looks good, it is actually very hard work. What's more, Gu Yun and his family have never worked in the fields since their family became rich.
She has even learned a skill now, and of course she wants them both to live a good life.
You two brothers should wait until you get to the county town to find a partner. Even if you marry into an ordinary family in the county town, you won’t have to work in the fields.
What's more, after they have the skills, they can also take on shows to make money and make a living.
When Gu Yao went to private school, he told his mother what was in his heart.
When Mother Gu heard this, she laughed out loud: "Don't worry, I am their mother, don't you know that I also feel sorry for them? They also worked hard when they were poor. How could I let them marry in the village? They will have dowries in the future, so of course they want to marry someone who doesn't have to work in the fields. Don't worry, you should hurry up and go to the private school. If you are late, the teacher will definitely scold you."
Gu Yao felt relieved after hearing what her mother said. She had to take it seriously. After all, their Gu family was being watched by many people, and they all wanted to become relatives with them.
It seems that she needs to speed up. She must pass the exam as soon as possible and then bring her whole family to the county town.
After arriving at the private school, Master Li gave them a few more instructions.
This time they were treated more strictly. Every day they were either asked to write policy essays or led to recite books. They were even taken to the county town to participate in several poetry readings.
Gu Yao sometimes thought that if they were not too far away from the city, the teacher would probably bring them to the city to participate in the poetry meeting.
After all, the poetry meetings in Fucheng are different. Fucheng is bigger and has more talented people.
After attending the poetry reading, the five of them had obviously changed a lot, and their essays were more inspired than before.
Gu Yao's poems also changed a lot, no longer being so mechanical, which made Master Li quite satisfied.
"The poem you wrote this time is pretty good, but you still need to work harder. If your poetry and calligraphy are too bad when you take the exam, I'm afraid that the other works won't satisfy the examiner. It won't be good if your ranking is lowered because of your poetry and calligraphy."
Master Li naturally wanted Gu Yao to get among the top few in the exam. After all, the top few were awarded the title of Scholars. With the title of Scholars, they could get food from the court, and the court treated the top few quite well.
Gu Yao naturally wanted to pass the exam, but passing the exam didn't matter to her. At least after passing the exam, her family's land would be tax-free, and her mother would no longer be subject to conscription.
The last time her mother came back from forced labor, she almost died. Fortunately, the family was rich and the medicinal herbs they used were relatively expensive, so Gu's mother was able to raise her back to health.
She must get the title of scholar, and even after passing the examination, she can act as a guarantor for others, which can naturally earn her a few taels of silver.
Ever since Gu Yao worked hard in the private school, she seldom went back and spent most of her time in the private school.
However, she would also buy some things and ask Gu Xiaoshu to take them back for her. After all, Lin Wulang must be thinking about him since she was pregnant.
Lin Wulang lived a good life in the Gu family, although Gu's father sometimes thought she was pretentious.
But after all, he is his daughter's husband and he also has his granddaughter, so he is naturally very good to him.
With servants in the house, the Gu family lived a good life without having to work too hard. Even the people in Gu’s village didn’t dare to gossip about them too much.
Now the Gu family is a wealthy family in Gujia Village. Who wouldn’t want to have a good relationship with them?
Some husbands would also come to Gu's house to please Gu's father. After all, a little bit of food from Gu's family would be enough for them to eat and drink for a long time, and they wanted to please Gu's father and make him happy.
Fortunately, although Father Gu enjoyed their flattery, he was clear-headed and knew that all this was because he had a good daughter.
After watching the villagers leave, he turned to look at Xiao Gu and said with a smile: "Look, people are so powerful. When our family was extremely poor, they treated us badly behind our backs and said all kinds of unpleasant things to us. Now that our family has turned things around, they dare not do that anymore."
After hearing this, Xiao Gu laughed and said, "Brother, that's why we should enjoy our life well and not hold A Yao back. She is the hope of our family. When A Yao passes the exam to become a scholar, our family can live in the county town."
Father Gu also sighed with hope: "Yes, I heard from the head of the family that the house in the county town is very nice, and there is a garden inside. When we live in the county town in the future, we can visit the garden every day. I don’t know what life in the county town is like. I really want to go there as soon as possible."
Lin Wulang was very happy when he saw what Gu Xiaoshu brought back. He knew his wife missed him, and then said, "A Miao, give these two pieces of cloth and the jewelry to Liulang. Let him use them to make some clothes."
Usually, after Gu Yao bought all the things, she would give part of them to her father and the other part to Lin Wulang for him to distribute.
After all, Lin Wulang is her doctor, so she has to do this for his face.
Apart from marrying another husband, Gu Yao also has no plans to marry again. After all, three husbands are enough.
She felt that she couldn't handle the house well by herself with so many men at home, and she also had to continue taking scientific examinations and working hard on her career, so she didn't have the time to focus on the rear house.
Gu Yao did not go back during this period, but he took advantage of the private school vacation to rent a shop in the county town.
But the shop is still quite small, and she plans to make some food when the time comes.
Although I can't cook it myself, I plan to take the imperial examination in the future. There are so many people in the Lin family, and there should be some who can cook delicious meals.
Let them come when the time comes, and she can just take the points directly.
After finishing all this, I returned to Gujia Village in July.
She told this to Gu's mother, who was silent for a moment: "If you want to do it, then do it. But you still have to find the person you trust the most, in case the Lin family drags you down and causes you trouble."
