Farming and reading family

It seems that anyone younger than Gao E is used to calling her "Big Sister", and Gao E doesn't mind.

"Since that's the case, just tell me directly if you have any problems next time." Gao E felt very guilty towards Yu Zhao.

After discussing this matter, Lianxin and Lu Qingluo came back together. Lianxin went into the kitchen to busy herself, and Lu Qingluo came over and sat next to Gao E.

"Why don't you read some books?" Gao E suggested cautiously.

"What's the point of studying if you don't know martial arts?" Lu Qingluo wondered what this meant.

"It can help calm one's mind." Gao E said seriously, "How about this, you follow Mr. Du to finish reading the Tao Te Ching, and then practice martial arts."

Lu Qingluo shook his head: "All that nonsense gives me a headache."

"Mr. Du's teaching is very interesting."

Lu Qingluo shook his head even more vigorously.

"Do you really want to solve your problem?" Gao E raised her voice.

"I do." Lu Qingluo straightened up instantly.

"I think your problem is your attitude." Gao E felt that Lu Qingluo had indeed been stubborn for too long. "This is your problem. When we try to find a solution for you, you always fail. And you can't solve it yourself, so we can only try."

Although Lu Qingluo was reluctant, he still listened obediently.

"I'm not asking you to give up what you have. I'm just trying to broaden your horizons, open your mind, see more things, and be more clear about what is right and wrong." Gao E saw that Lu Qingluo didn't want to listen. "Start studying the Tao Te Ching with Mr. Du tomorrow."

"Okay." Lu Qingluo agreed reluctantly.

Ji Wuyang wanted to laugh when he heard this in the room. There were many outsiders with different personalities in the Chen family, but when they came to the Chen family, they all felt like family members.

The next day, Lu Qingluo obediently went to Mr. Du to learn the "Tao Te Ching".

Du Weiqing is very busy now. Although he no longer teaches, he has to plan the affairs of Qingtan Academy.

Gao E was responsible for paying money and solving problems, and the rest was just a hands-off job.

Ji Wuyang didn't expect that Lu Qingluo actually went there, and he wandered around the yard alone, bored.

"Are you free?" Gao E saw Ji Wuyang walking around in the yard.

"It's nothing." Ji Wuyang walked to Gao E's side.

"Go to He County and ask Jin Ruyi from Yueyuan to come back." Gao E ordered.

"Okay." Ji Wuyang turned and left.

Gao E looked at Ji Wuyang and thought that he was a person who could not sit still and could not do farm work.

Ji Wuyang really can't sit still. He feels that it's a waste of time if he's idle. He does have some ideas, but they are unrealistic in a family like the Chen family.

It was already afternoon when Jin Ruyi arrived.

"Where did you find this new person?" Jin Ruyi asked curiously as soon as he arrived.

"Good martial arts skills." Gao E did not explain.

Jin Ruyi didn't ask further: "What do you want from me?"

Gao E approached Jin Ruyi and whispered, "Prepare some trustworthy people to go to Ghost Crying Mountain and move the stones."

Jin Ruyi looked at Gao E in surprise: "Didn't you say we should wait for the new county magistrate to arrive and see what the situation is like?"

"The new county magistrate came this morning." Gao E nodded.

Jin Ruyi was surprised. The students and gentry in He County would definitely be preparing to welcome the new official, either in Wanyi Tower or Yue Garden. How come she had no news at all?

"Why did I come directly to you?" Jin Ruyi felt that Gao E was becoming more and more mysterious.

"Don't worry about these details, just arrange the people." Gao E said directly.

"Okay." Jin Ruyi knew that if Gao E didn't tell her, it had nothing to do with her. "Where should I put it?"

"Qingtan Gorge."

Jin Ruyi thought about it and decided that the place was indeed suitable: "The more people there are, the better."

“The more, the better, as long as it’s believable.”

"I understand." Jin Ruyi smiled slyly.

It was getting late, so Jin Ruyi stayed overnight. However, Chen Ke came back when it was dark.

Gao E looked behind Chen Ke and asked, "Why did my husband come back alone?"

Chen Ke thought something was wrong: "Mr. Du and the others are busy in Qingtan Gorge."

"Where is Qingluo?" Gao E thought, it's already this late, why hasn't Lu Qingluo come back yet? Hopely nothing has happened to anyone else?

"I went to He County today and didn't see Miss Qingluo." Chen Ke explained.

Gao E and Chen Ke entered the main hall together: "What are you doing in He County?"

"The new county magistrate has arrived in He County. We didn't go to greet him, but met him at the county government office. He said he didn't like the whole process of welcoming and seeing off guests. If you want to do that, you should do more for the people." Chen Ke said as he slowly sat down.

He finally had the chance to stand in front with others to welcome the magistrate, but someone so straightforward came instead.

"It seems that the new county magistrate is a good official who puts himself in the shoes of the people." Gao E said with a smile.

Chen Ke nodded and said, "We see that Lord Cao's carriage is old and worn out, so we want to raise some money to buy him a better carriage."

Gao E thought for a moment: "Master Cao has such a hint?"

"Of course not, but he is a county official after all, and a carriage that is too shabby is beneath his status."

"Is it what my husband thinks, or is it someone else who says so?" Gao E sat next to Chen Ke.

Chen Ke was slightly embarrassed: "Someone else said so."

"Then don't be in a hurry about this matter. Let's first see what kind of person Lord Cao is. If Lord Cao has no intention of changing the carriage, then if you do this, it will make Lord Cao embarrassed, or even worse, anger him." Gao E was worried.

Given Cao Geng's personality, if someone really gave him a gift, it would probably be bad for both sides.

Chen Ke thought about it and said, "Then let's take a look again?"

Gao E nodded.

Chen Ke came back to discuss this matter with Gao E. The main thing was to pay, so he asked Gao E.

After discussing this matter, Chen Ke saw Jin Ruyi was here, so he went to live over at the school.

Gao E sent Chen Ke away and saw Ji Wuyang walking around again, so she thought he should go to grind the mill.

"Is there something wrong?" Gao E saw that Ji Wuyang had no intention of going back.

"Qing Luo hasn't come back yet." Ji Wuyang said worriedly.

That woman was quite interesting. She spoke directly and her stubbornness was a little scary.

Gao E thought about it and realized it was true. Just as she was about to ask Ji Wuyang to go look for him, she saw Lu Qingluo coming back in frustration.

"What's wrong with you?" Gao E pulled Lu Qingluo.

"Mr. Du asked me to recite the book." Lu Qingluo said, almost crying, "I can't recite it."

"How much more is left?" Gao E thought that it was impossible to memorize it all in one day, unless one was a genius who was good at learning like Jin Chao.

"I can't even recite the first chapter." Lu Qingluo felt aggrieved.

"Pfft——" Ji Wuyang couldn't help laughing.

Gao E and Jin Ruyi both looked at Ji Wuyang.

"I'll go back first." Ji Wuyang went home after seeing Lu Qingluo coming back.

"Stop!" Lu Qingluo said angrily.

Ji Wuyang had no choice but to stop.

"Did you not hold back your laughter just now?" Lu Qingluo felt that he needed to find someone to fight.

"Yeah." Ji Wuyang is also a down-to-earth person.

Lu Qingluo unsheathed his sword with a bang: "What are you laughing at? If you can, recite it. If you can't, let's fight."

Ji Wuyang lowered his head and raised his hand to rub the tip of his nose: "You can't beat me again."
