What Gu's father said was from the heart. Although he looked down on Lin Wulang and others as Gu Yao's status became higher and higher, he was still his daughter's husband after all.

Let Lin Wulang become a respectable man so that he can bring honor to his daughter when he goes out.

He also hopes that Lin Wulang will get better and better, which will be good for his granddaughter.

Looking at Gu's mother, he said, "Master, why don't we go to the vet to buy a housekeeper, especially one from a wealthy family, and place him beside Wu Lang. We can also teach him well. I am also a peasant, so I don't know anything about these things. My housekeeper A Yao also helped me before, and she has more and more things to do. It's not necessary to let A Yao teach Wu Lang."

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it would be a good idea to buy a housekeeper. Although it would cost a little more, the better the person, the better the money would be.

Mother Gu also thought it was a good idea. After thinking for a while, she said, "Aqin, you are right. I will go right away. However, it is not easy to find a housekeeper. Usually, a good housekeeper is bought by someone else as soon as he is offered. You can take care of Wulang first, and put him next to Wulang after you buy him."

The more Mother Gu thought about it, the more she felt that there were still too few servants in the house. A Yao's status would become higher and higher in the future, especially in the kitchen, and there would be some banquets at home. If there were not enough people, it would be a joke.

She couldn't let A Yao be laughed at, so she bought more servants and was unstoppable.

When Gu Yao returned to the Gu family, she saw that there were too many servants in the house, and even Lin Wulang had a man with his hair tied up.

Lin Wulang was very happy to see Gu Yao coming back. He quickly ran to her side and said tremblingly in her arms: "My dear wife, you are back. I missed you so much."

He had been away from Gu Yao for so long, and he felt relieved to see her return safely.

He likes his wife very much and especially wants her to stay at home more.

However, his wife is an ambitious person and it is impossible for her to stay at home for long, but he cherishes every moment with her.

"I'm back. I missed you too. Let's go in. I also bought you a lot of things from the provincial capital. They're all very nice."

"The things don't matter. I just hope you can come back safely every time. And everyone in the family misses you."

Mother Gu and Father Gu were very excited to see Gu Yao come back.

Gu Yao knelt beside them and said, "Mother, father, my daughter is back. She lived up to everyone's expectations and passed the imperial examination."

Mother Gu quickly helped her up and said tremblingly: "Good, good, you are worthy of being my daughter. You have worked hard. Our Gu family is proud of you. But why have you lost so much weight? Let me take a look. Are you not eating well or living well outside?"

Gu's mother accompanied Su on the scientific examination, so she naturally knew that the scientific examination was not an easy task.

Father Gu looked at Gu Yao, who looked much older. He was shocked and asked quickly, "Xiao Shu, what happened to A Yao? Did you encounter any danger?"

Gu Xiaoshu said quickly: "Madam, Master, this time is really dangerous. If it weren't for the high medical skills of the doctor in the provincial capital, I don't think Madam would have survived."

Gu Xiaoshu was afraid when she thought of what happened before. She thought that if she went to Beijing for the imperial examination in the future, she must prepare more carefully and must not let Gu Yao encounter such a thing again.

Father Gu was very excited when he heard this: "Ayao, let me see, let me see what's wrong with you, why is it like this, is it because the scientific examination is too difficult for Xiaoshu, is everything not well?"

Father Gu knew that his daughter was actually in good health. She had survived the previous scientific expeditions, so why did she almost fail this time?

The moment he thought about it, he became frightened. He only had this one daughter. What would he do if she died because of her studies?

Gu Yao didn’t want to say it at first, but seeing how worried they were, she told them what happened in the provincial capital.

"Mom, Dad, I'm fine. I came back safely, and I passed the imperial examination. This is a great joyous event for our family."

Father Gu was already in tears, and he hugged her tightly and sobbed, "Ayao, let's not go to school, okay? You are already a juren, what if you can't make it to the capital for the imperial examination? You are asking for Dad's life, Dad only has you as his child, and he just wants you to be safe and healthy. We don't want these honors, I just want you to live."

Father Gu no longer wanted any vanity or reputation, as his daughter had already earned it for him.

He just wanted his daughter to stand in front of him safely and live a peaceful life. He didn't want anything else.

He wondered if it was because he was too vain that his daughter had to suffer so much.

I can’t imagine what his daughter would do if she couldn’t handle this.

Mother Gu nodded vigorously, tears streaming down her face: "Yes, let's not take the exam. Just stay at home and eat whatever you want. I have the same idea as your father. As long as you are healthy and safe."

Lin Wulang and the others were already in tears; they couldn't imagine what would happen to them if their mistress was gone.

Lin Wulang has already thought about it. If Gu Yao is really gone this time, he might really go with her because he can't live without Gu Yao.

Seeing her family crying for her, Gu Yao said with guilt: "It's all my fault. Actually, I am lucky this time. Don't worry, I won't go next year. After three years, I will only be the last one in the exam. If I take the exam next year, I will definitely not pass it. So let's live a good life in the county town for the next three years."

Knowing that her family was worried about her, she felt very guilty.

But scientific examinations are a combination of strength and luck, and whether one's physical condition allows one to make it is also a matter of luck, so she didn't know what to say.

When Father Gu heard that it was only three years later that Su came to power, he was unwilling but very scared.

"Anyway, you need to take good care of your body, so don't go. You are already a juren, even if you are the last one, you are still a child of destiny, and juren can become an official, so it doesn't matter whether you go or not. I just want you to be well in front of me."

Father Gu held her arm tightly, not letting her leave, and quickly asked the servants to bring some fruits and snacks over. "Auntie, you must be hungry after walking for more than half a month. Eat some snacks to fill your stomach. The kitchen is already cooking. You must eat a good meal this time."

Looking at Lin Wulang, he said, "Wulang, ask the kitchen to stew some supplements and a chicken every day. You should also be more careful about Ayao's daily affairs. You and Liulang should serve Ayao well."

Lin Wulang and the others nodded quickly: "Don't worry, Dad, we will take good care of my wife. Now that she is back, Liulang and I are relieved. As long as my wife is safe, that's all."

They didn't dare to imagine the days without Gu Yao. They were all weak men and didn't know what they would do if they lost their wives.

What's more, they finally have such a good life and don't want to become a widower, so they hope that Gu Yao can live a long life more than anyone else.
