Female supremacy: leading the whole family to change their family
Chapter 37 Moving to the County Town
When Gu Yao and the others were preparing to go back, they received a notice from the county magistrate, saying that he wanted to invite the four scholars to have a meal together.
Master Li laughed so hard that he couldn't stop smiling: "When the time comes, you guys must behave well in front of the county magistrate."
"You four being admitted as scholars can be said to be her credit, so the county magistrate is so enthusiastic. If the county magistrate is testing you, you should answer well."
Master Li also knew why the county magistrate was so enthusiastic, and she felt very comfortable in her heart. After all, these four scholars were her students.
You know, not a single scholar was admitted to the Niu family private school. When she thought of her friend's jealous look, she laughed heartily.
Gu Yao heard Master Li's delighted expression and thought that it seemed she had lost in the Niu family private school.
The scholar's documents had already been completed, and Gu Yao and the others wore scholar's uniforms and went to the county town to meet the county magistrate.
The county magistrate is a forty-year-old woman who looks quite old, but probably because of her poor family background and not much ability, she has always been a seventh-rank county magistrate.
It is because she has no special abilities that she pays special attention to Gu Yao and other scholars.
The more famous scholars there are in the county she is in charge of, the better her political achievements will be, so she is very enthusiastic about Gu Yao and the others.
He invited them to dinner, even gave them some encouragement, and gave them some books and twenty taels of silver each.
Seeing her generosity, Gu Yao and the others were all very surprised. When they left the county magistrate's gate, Qian Xiumin was astonished: "This county magistrate is really generous. Twenty taels of silver can buy several acres of land."
Wang Yang sighed, "I guess the adults want us to continue to pass the exam to win glory for her, but if we take the exam, will you go next year?"
Gu Yao said, "I want to give it a try. Even if I fail, I can still gain experience. If I don't try, it will be a pity. Sisters, are you going?"
Wang Yang and the others thought about it and said, "If that's the case, then let's all go. After all, this is a rare opportunity."
After Gu Yao discussed with them about taking the provincial examination next year, she quickly returned to Gujia Village.
"Mom, let's move. I passed the exam and became a scholar, so it would be better for me to move to the county town. I also want to take the provincial examination next year, so I need to enter the county school as soon as possible."
Gu's mother had already known about it, and the government office had come to report the good news.
The entire Gujia Village already knew that Gu Yao had passed the examination for a scholar, and they all went crazy.
They never expected that a scholar would appear in their village.
Village chief Gu respected Gu Yao even more. She knew that Gu Yao was different from them and would definitely become an official in the future.
It was only after they held the buffet for three more days that the Gu family finally had some peace and quiet. They had long been tired of receiving people from the village every day.
The Lin family was even more excited, as they all knew that they and Gu Xiucai had become relatives.
Lin Wulang and his other brothers were extremely jealous.
Thinking about the rich life that Lin Wulang and his wife were living while they would have to eat coarse food in the future, they both wanted to become the third husband of the Gu family.
In the end, it was Old Lady Lin who punished all the men in the family and said angrily: "Don't even think about it. It's good enough that Gu can marry our Wulang and Liulang. After all, they were really anxious to find a husband at that time. But now that the Gu family has a scholar, their third husband will definitely find someone better. We are just peasants. Don't even think about being the husband of a scholar."
Lin Erniang and Lin Sanniang were very proud, knowing that they had made the right decision to marry their son into the Gu family.
Especially when they thought about the good things that the Gu family gave them during the Chinese New Year and other festivals, which they could not afford before, but now that they have a good daughter-in-law, they can use them whenever they want.
The children in the family work in a shop in the county town and earn two taels of silver a month, which is a great thing.
Lin Erniang said at this time: "Mother, why don't we go to the Gu family to help? I heard that they are moving to the county town. They are not very big. Although they have servants, they have so many things that they probably can't handle it. The third child and I will go to help. After all, we are her mother-in-law."
Mrs. Lin thought about it and said, "You are right. You should go and help them as soon as possible so that they can live in peace. We are relatives and we cannot be strangers to each other."
Old Mrs. Lin may want to curry favor with the Gu family now, but the Gu family will be different in the future.
And they are so poor now, but fortunately Gu takes care of her and lets her two granddaughters work in the shop. They have made a lot of money in the past few months.
Gu's mother was very satisfied to see the Lin family coming to help. Although the Gu family is very poor now, they were also poor in the past.
She was also very grateful that the Lin family was willing to let her two sons marry into the family.
Moreover, the Lin family usually did not take advantage of them, so they were very satisfied with this relative.
The Lin family helped them move faster, and the Gu family's house was handed over to Village Chief Gu to look after, and even all the fields were rented out to villagers.
Gu Yao was still quite reassured about Gujia Village. Moreover, her mother would come back every now and then to collect rent. So she gave her many gifts and even a book, which touched the village chief very much.
"Xiao Shu, you will be living in the county town in the future. You must take good care of A Yao. If I find out that you are not taking good care of A Yao, I will beat you."
Gu Yao is the sweetheart of Village Chief Gu. Ever since she became a scholar, she has enjoyed a high status in other villages. Even the head of the village is very kind to her and has received some rewards from her.
Marriage affairs in Gujia Village have also become better, so she wishes Gu Yao could take a further step.
Even become an official, so that she can feel at ease even if she goes to meet the ancestors of the Gu family
Lin Erniang and Lin Sanniang helped the Gu family move to the county town and were stunned when they saw the house in front of them.
"My dear, this is the house you bought. It's so nice, just like a wealthy family."
After hearing this, Mother Gu smiled proudly and said, "No, no, this is just the first floor of my house, and it only has six rooms. It's already very good to be able to buy this house, but this house is also very expensive. It cost me sixty taels, which is really too expensive."
Mother Gu felt heartbroken when she thought about it. After all, it only cost ten taels to build a house in the village, and these sixty taels could almost build several houses. "
She thought that the county town was different. If she hadn't had a hundred taels in the provincial capital, she wouldn't have been able to buy the house, so she was content.
Owning a property in the county town is a very proud thing. I think that at least I have a shop and can make money, so it is not considered as squandering my money.
Lin Erniang glanced at Lin Sanniang and felt even more that they were very lucky to have such a relative as the Gu family.
I thought about burning some paper for my ancestors after I go back, so that they can bless the Gu family to get better and better so that they can also enjoy the blessings.
Lin Wulang was helped out of the carriage by Ding Miao and was very excited when he saw the house in front of him.
After entering, I saw that the room was very clean, and I knew that Gu's mother came here to clean it regularly.
Afterwards, Father Gu arranged for me and the others to clean the house thoroughly again.
They were asked to buy vegetables again, but fortunately their food had already been delivered, so they didn’t need to buy food anymore, but they still had to buy vegetables.
Gu Yao looked at Lin Erniang and said, "The two mothers-in-law should have dinner at home today. It will also warm up the house."
Lin Erniang laughed: "Then Sanniang and I will shamelessly eat at home."
Mother Gu said with a smile: "It's nothing, we are all family, there is no need to be so formal, in the future, the in-laws should come to the county town more often, we are relatives, it is the truth that we should visit each other more often."
