The all-round coser bravely challenges the female supremacy!
Chapter 226: In a trance, apprenticeship
Songbai Hall.
Su Yu followed Magistrate Xu and walked towards a terrace under the guidance of the servant.
From a distance, Su Yu saw a man coming down from the terrace and walking towards them.
As Su Yu got closer, she could clearly see the great scholar that Xu Zhifu wanted to introduce to her.
She was wearing a dark purple brocade robe embroidered with intricate silver cloud patterns.
As she walked slowly and steadily, the cloud patterns on her robe seemed to float like flowing clouds.
The two groups met, and Prefect Xu and the great scholar exchanged greetings.
"Master Gu."
"Master Xu."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Xu Zhifu brought the topic to Su Yu.
"Master Gu, this is the junior I wanted to introduce to you.
Su Yu, this is the great scholar I told you about—Master Gu.”
When Su Yu heard that Xu Zhifu was introducing her, she immediately stepped forward and bowed.
"Junior Su Yu meets Master Gu."
Gu Shi looked at Su Yu, who had an upright figure and an elegant demeanor, and nodded in praise.
"Good, good, good, he's handsome and behaves so well! Not bad! He's a good kid!"
Su Yu was a little confused when he heard Master Gu's praise. Why did he give such a high evaluation as soon as they met?
However, before Su Yu could remain confused for long, he heard Master Gu's explanation.
Master Gu teased Prefect Xu,
"Jun Lan, who is this youngster? He looks much better than your niece!"
Xu Junlan, the governor of Xu Prefecture, rolled his eyes at Gu Shi, not wanting to mention that dude to her at this moment. He turned to Su Yu and said,
"Didn't you prepare a gift for Master Gu? Why don't you hand it over?"
As soon as Xu Junlan finished speaking, Su Yu stretched out her hand, and Da Zhuang placed the gift box in Su Yu's hand.
Su Yu presented the prayer box with both hands,
"I've prepared a small gift for my first visit to an elder. Aunt Xu told me that Master Gu likes black tea, so I've prepared a Da Hong Pao. I hope you'll accept it."
When Master Gu heard this, he laughed and said,
"Have a heart."
He personally took the gift box from Su Yu's hand and handed it to the servant boy waiting beside him.
When Xu Junlan saw that Master Gu personally accepted Su Yu's gift box, he felt a little relieved.
"Su Yu, do you know who Master Gu is?"
Su Yu shook his head and said honestly,
"I haven't learned anything about the great scholars of the aristocratic families. I've only recently read a few books Aunt Xu gave me."
Teacher Gu was not angry when she heard what Su Yu said. She didn't care much about her reputation.
Xu Junlan started to introduce,
"Master Gu, he is a contemporary scholar from the lineage of the great literary masters. His family has been scholars for generations and is a family of scholars. Many people want to meet him but cannot. He now lives in seclusion in our Cangzhou City.
You are not allowed to tell anyone else, otherwise it will be difficult for you to see Master Gu in the future!"
Master Gu heard Xu Junlan's joke and laughed,
"If you really care about me, you wouldn't keep introducing students to me!
Just take your niece for example, look at her..."
Just as Gu Shi was about to complain, Xu Junlan grabbed his shoulder and led the group towards the tea table prepared on the terrace.
"Why do you keep mentioning her? Today I want you to see Su Yu. If you don't want to, I won't force you this time!"
Xu Junlan waved his other hand at Su Yu, signaling her to follow.
Teacher Gu was forcefully carried away by Xu Junlan. He glanced back at Su Yu and saw that she was following him obediently, not even looking at the fun.
He nodded secretly in his heart, sighing that he had a good character, then turned to look at Xu Junlan, pointing at her,
"Are you sure?"
Xu Junlan nodded repeatedly.
"Sure sure!"
To be honest, Xu Junlan had no confidence in Su Yu, but she also wanted to give Su Yu a chance.
After all, Master Gu is a top figure in the literary world, and not everyone can become his disciple.
If she hadn't relied on her good relationship with Master Gu,
It's impossible to force Su Yexuan to be Teacher Gu's student!
What was she thinking at that time? Su Yexuan had a family background, had studied, was the niece of her beloved husband, and might be the wife of her Ji Yue from outside. Naturally, she wanted to pave the way for her.
Although Master Gu didn't like Su Yexuan very much, he accepted her as a registered disciple for her sake.
Later it was proved that Master Gu's vision was really bad. Her good niece was really a playboy.
He appears to be filial to his elders, but he actually has a lot of fun in private.
Her niece was a playboy, but she was educated and had a family background.
As for Su Yu, according to her own words, she couldn't even read and write properly. Xu Junlan really didn't have much confidence.
She had already betrayed her best sister once, so she decided to leave it to fate this time, but she still didn't have much confidence in Su Yu.
Everyone sat down. Teacher Gu looked at Su Yu, who had always been polite and courteous, and who looked unusual. He couldn't help but feel like testing him.
"You said you read the books Jun Lan gave you?"
Su Yu nodded and blurted out a few book titles.
Gu Shi nodded.
"Well, yes, these books are about the content of the imperial examination.
However, the imperial examination is not something that can be passed by simply reciting the textbook.
How much do you know and understand about these books?"
Su Yu said,
"I have memorized all of these books. As for their meanings, I dare not speak rashly.
I'm confident I understand it to a certain extent, but the book's meaning is my own, so I can't generalize it."
The more Master Gu listened, the more satisfied she felt. She didn't think Su Yu would lie to her at all.
These books and this knowledge can be revealed by asking, and this kind of lies can be exposed by poking. Who would use these to deceive people?
Even her most dissolute registered disciple, Su Yexuan, did not dare to lie to her about academic matters.
Xu Junlan became more and more frightened as he listened to Su Yu's words.
Could Su Yu be lying? It had only been a few days since she'd given him the book. Could she possibly remember everything?
Could it be that she knew Master Gu's reputation and was deliberately lying to people?
Such a hypocritical person is not worthy of being her daughter-in-law!
The more Xu Junlan thought about it, the more horrible it became, and his mood became worse.
Before she could figure out what her mood was, she heard Teacher Gu checking the contents of Su Yu's book, and Su Yu's answers were extremely fluent.
Xu Junlan's eyes widened in shock! What did she hear?!
Xu Junlan listened to Master Gu's test of Su Yu in a daze.
After the test, Gu teacher happily poured Su Yu a cup of tea.
"You are a good seedling. You must study hard in the future! Your teacher has great confidence in you!"
When Su Yu heard this, he immediately stood up and bowed solemnly to Master Gu.
"Student thanks Master!"
Upon hearing this, Master Gu stood up and laughed to the sky.
"Okay, okay! I'm very satisfied with you as my disciple!"
Xu Junlan stood up in a daze. He was going to accept a disciple now?
Teacher Gu warmly saw Xu Junlan and Su Yu out. When Xu Junlan came, he hugged Teacher Gu, and when he left, Teacher Gu stayed close to Su Yu and asked about her well-being all the way.
Even when he reached the door, Xu Junlan was still somewhat distracted.
I was still thinking, Su Yu finished reading those books in just three days?
When they reached the entrance of the academy, Xu Junlan saw the two people arguing at the entrance, frowned, and immediately came back to his senses.
"Jiyue?! Su Yexuan!"
