I am a winner with Chinese poetry

"My darling, what happened?" At this time, a noise came from afar. It turned out that it was Old Madam Gu in the backyard who heard the noise and hurried over to help, fearing that her grandson would suffer.

"Grandma, come and save me, the teacher is going to beat someone!" Gu Tianhua heard his grandmother's voice outside the door, his eyes lit up, and he immediately shouted loudly.

"Oh my dear grandson, come out quickly, this is the school and grandma can't go in!"

Although Madam Gu was anxious, she still knew the rules. Women, or women who had not reached the eighth rank of scholar, were not allowed to enter schools or academies.

Including the imperial examination, only women of the eighth rank were allowed to take the exam, and the admission ratio was even more stringent. This was a bad habit of the entire era and was extremely unfair to women.

But it is much better than it was a few hundred years ago. At that time, even if a woman had literary energy, she was not allowed to show her face in public at will, let alone take the imperial examination.

This is a habit that has been passed down for thousands of years, and it will not be changed overnight.

"How dare you insult me, you brat!" The old man was so angry that his face turned red. He didn't expect Gu Tianhua to be so disrespectful and dare to slander him casually while he was still standing here.

At this moment, Master Hu, who was originally a little hunched, exuded an astonishing aura, like a beast about to be released from a cage, ready to devour its prey.

Gu Yunzhou, who was not far away, touched the goose bumps on his body. Ever since Master Hu used his hand as a pen and shouted "suspend the troops and rest the armor", Gu Yunzhou had been watching in a daze.

Although I have always known that this world has civilized people, monsters and barbarians, it was only hearsay after all. Now that I have witnessed it with my own eyes, the shock I feel is beyond words.

Isn't this an immortal? Hearing that Confucian scholars have advanced to the highest level and can call the wind and rain and coexist with the sun and the moon, Gu Yunzhou suddenly clenched his fists and was extremely excited. Doesn't that mean that he, who has a 5,000-year-old heritage of China, can create a new world in this alien world.

"Mother, why are you here? Hurry up and help the old lady down. She's old and in poor health. If she gets hurt, watch out for yourselves!"

At this time, a male voice sounded. He first greeted Madam Gu and then scolded the servants who were surrounding the old lady behind her.

"Second brother, I'm leaving now. Tell the teacher to call Hua'er out and have him come with me!"

When Mrs. Gu saw her son coming in a hurry, she quickly urged him to come, fearing that if she was late, Gu Tianhua would be scolded by Master Hu.

"Nonsense, this is the clan school, Tianhua has his own teachers, how dare you interfere!" Gu Jin frowned when he heard it, and looked at his mother with disapproval.

"Alright, you're showing off in front of me, second son, right? I've had it so hard. I've spent my whole life raising two sons, but the eldest went straight to the capital, and I barely get to see him once a year!"

"Now you've also begun to despise me, an old woman. I won't be an eyesore to you here. Old man, open your eyes and see that your good son has become successful and has begun to despise his own mother!"

Old Madam Gu was not a pushover. Seeing this scene, she slapped her thigh and started crying. She was not a lady from a wealthy family. When she married Old Master Gu when she was young, she was just an ordinary peasant woman.

Until later, Mr. Gu accidentally saved a scholar. This scholar came from a prominent family. In order to repay the man for saving his life, he sent Gu's two sons to the academy and even invited a great scholar of the time to teach them personally.

The eldest son of the Gu family was quite talented in studying and his literary talent improved rapidly. Later, he married the daughter of a great scholar, and only then did he begin to make a fortune.

Although the second son of the Gu family was not as educated as the eldest, he was a quick-witted man. He used the connections he had to expand the family business like a snowball. Now, one of them is an official bringing honor to the family, and the other is a wealthy businessman. They can be said to be taking advantage of each other's strengths and making up for each other's weaknesses to carry forward the Gu family.

"Mom, I don't dare. Please stop talking. I'm going to tell that little bastard to come out!"

Gu Jin's face twitched and he sighed helplessly. His father died early and it was his mother who raised him and his brother single-handedly. No matter how much dissatisfaction he had, he could only swallow it.

"Hmph, you still have some conscience. Please stop letting my dear grandson suffer any injustice!" Only then did Old Madam Gu stop crying, patted her thigh and stood up from the ground.

Gu Jin sighed again, straightened his clothes, and then knocked respectfully on the half-open door.

"Mr. Hu, I am not a strict parent and I have made you tired!" Gu Jin was not as short-sighted as his mother. He knew that although Mr. Hu was only a seventh-rank scholar at such an old age, he had the support of a big tree. He came from the once semi-saint Hu family. Although he was only a descendant of a side branch, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. He was not so arrogant as to say that.

"It's totally out of place, Mr. Gu. The two of them actually dared to fight in front of the portrait of Confucius. Where does this put the ancestors of our Confucianism!" Master Hu opened the door completely and pointed at Gu Tianhua and Zhang Xuan.

Gu Tianhua's original arrogant and undisciplined appearance disappeared completely the moment he heard his father's footsteps. At this moment, he hunched his back and lowered his head, like a frightened bird, wishing he could hide his body.

He knew very well that if he went to his grandmother to deal with minor matters or mistakes, he would at most get scolded. But if his father intervened, the consequences would be completely different.

Last time, he just forced a maid to sleep with him. When his father found out, he didn't say anything. Instead, he ignored his wishes, quickly sold the maid, and then beat him with a stick until his skin was torn.

If old lady Gu had not blocked him with her body in the end, he would have been beaten half to death on the spot. Since then, Gu Tianhua's legs went weak when he saw his father. You know, he had to lie in bed for half a month before he could get out of bed. This shows how ruthless Gu Jin was.

"You unfilial son, why don't you kneel down and kowtow to the portrait of Confucius and admit your mistake!" Gu Jin shouted, frightening Gu Tianhua so much that his legs went limp and he fell to the ground on the spot. Zhang Xuan, who was standing beside him, touched his bruised cheek and smiled mockingly.

Gu Jin noticed this scene, his eyes darkened, and he said nothing. He sent Zhang Xuan away, including Hu Yong. He dared to be so arrogant in their Gu family's territory. What was wrong with his son beating him up?

It's true that Gu Jin didn't think his son had done anything wrong, but the Gu family couldn't have a bad reputation right now. This Hu Yong was really taking advantage of others. No wonder he was born in the Hu family and still couldn't become a great scholar at such an old age.

If it weren't for the fact that this was a critical period for the eldest brother's family and their plan was related to it, as long as they succeeded, the Gu family would really change their fortunes. Gu Jin would have had these two people thrown out long ago.
