Farming and reading lady

Seeing his third brother agreed so easily, Gu Liejue, who was about to talk endlessly, was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed. Could the third brother finally come out of this? Letting him tutor the child was only one of his hopes. What he hoped more was that his third brother could let go of the bitterness in his heart.

The old man also breathed a sigh of relief. He was not a harsh person. He just swallowed his pride and admitted his mistake to his third son. Who doesn't want to save face? What's wrong with him being a little arrogant?

Then, everyone was having fun, at least on the surface. When people get along with each other, it's just a matter of superficial effort. There's nothing wrong with that. If everyone is sincere, then the heart will be exhausted. That would be great. Gu Xixian thought.

The people in the old house are actually all kind. Human relationships are gained through interaction. The more you interact with each other, the deeper the feelings. Gradually, the interactions between the third house and the old house became more frequent, and Gu Xixian had more opportunities to interact with them. With more interactions, she discovered that the old man was actually a very wise old man, and even the old lady was actually a very insightful person.

As for the old man, he felt that his little granddaughter was the only one who was not afraid of him. Although the two of them always argued when they met, it was also a kind of fun, wasn't it? The old man really liked his little granddaughter in his heart. In addition, he felt a little guilty for not paying attention to her before. After adding a high-level filter, he felt that his little granddaughter was the best child in the world, smart, lively, beautiful and cute... In short, Gu Xixian was definitely the number one grandchild in his heart.

"Mom and Dad, big brother, second brother, what do you think about this?" This happened too suddenly, it was no exaggeration to say that it was pie in the sky, Gu Liqi was a little flustered.

The old man took a puff of his cigarette and said calmly, "Just look at it this way. What's the big deal? Isn't this our child lovable? What's the big deal about taking him as a disciple? You're making it sound like it's something special."

"Dad, he's a high-ranking official in the court, a third-rank official." The uncle was speechless. Look how nonchalant his father was talking.

The Gu family joined later, and they have never explored the history of the indigenous Tong family. If they had known that the Tong family had such a big Buddha, they would have known... Actually, it has nothing to do with them.

Tapping his pipe on the corner of the table, the old man said, "That's the luck of the kids. If it comes, just take it. Don't make a fuss. Besides, with our kids' intelligence, there's nothing they can't take."

The old man was actually shocked and excited in his heart, because he knew that this was an opportunity, an opportunity for the Gu family to rise again, but as the old saying goes, a blessing is not a disaster, and disaster is unavoidable. One must be calm in life, and only when you are calm can you go smoothly.

"Then Dad means he agrees." Gu Liqi asked for his opinion again.

"Well, let's find a good day and make the apprenticeship ceremony more respectable and grand. It's OK as long as our intentions are there." The old man was quite confident about the two children of the third son. In fact, he was not well educated, but he thought he had a good eye for people. They were two smart children. Compared with his third son, they were better than his father. Those two little guys were very smart. Thinking of this, he stared at Gu Liqi and looked at her carefully. He felt that the intelligence of his grandchildren might be more inherited from their mother. Even though he hated that daughter-in-law so much in those years, he had to say that the daughter-in-law was a very smart woman.

"Okay, then I'll let the kids reply to Mr. Tong." After hearing what his father said, Gu Liqi also felt that his own child was worthy of being the apprentice of this third-rank official. So, in the eyes of parents, their own children are not the best. All other children are better. That's just modesty, you know?

Gu Xixian had never doubted the opinions of the old man and his family. From the moment his father jumped to the old house in shock to the moment he returned calmly, Gu Xixian was not surprised at all. He even jokingly asked, "Dad, did your shoes fall off?"

Gu Lieqi looked down at his feet, not understanding what was going on, and replied innocently, "My shoes are fine."

This made Gu Xixian laugh out loud, but Du Xianniang glared at him in reproach. He said to her husband, "The little guy is teasing you. What do dad and big brother say?"

Gu Lieqi told his wife about the conversation in the old house, and the couple began to discuss the various items to be prepared for apprenticeship. After dinner, they fell asleep in the sound of insects. Gu Xixian entered her study room in her previous life again. Recently, she always read various books in her study room in her previous life in her dreams. Regardless of the type, she read them carefully one by one and then imprinted them in her mind. When she woke up, she would write down what she had read in her dreams bit by bit. She had memorized three thick books.

When he followed his brother to the school, Tong Mingyan was already waiting there. When he saw the two little kids, he rubbed his hands and asked, "How is it? Do your families agree?"

Gu Xixian was a little amused. Shouldn't they be nervous? Why did it fall?

"Uncle Tong, our family is willing. Dad told you to choose a day and we will kowtow to you." Gu Xihao is a real little kid after all.

"Okay, okay. You guys go in and attend class." Tong Mingyan really likes these two children. He and his wife have been married for more than 20 years and have taken several concubines, but they have no children. Some elders in the clan also advised him to choose one or two children from the clan to inherit, but unfortunately he and his wife have not found one that suits their eyes. Now he is fortunate to have two children as his disciples, and he is very happy, because these two children, no matter in which aspect, are very suitable for him. Disciples, disciples, are both disciples and children. What is rare is that the wife who comes from a wealthy family also likes the two children.

The news that the two children from the third branch of the Gu family caught the eye of Tong Sanpin soon spread throughout the Xiaoyuewan Village. This news was spread by Tong Mingyan. The Tong clan did not have any complaints about it. They said very clearly that if there was anyone in the clan who could beat the two children from the Gu family, he would be willing to adopt them as his heirs. Unfortunately, they were completely defeated. Besides, Tong Sanpin said that his apprentices were also his children. If they were successful in the future, he would take good care of the clan. What else could be said? A family only wanted more protection, not to make enemies.

In this way, in the midst of the excitement, Gu Xixian and his sister became the apprentices of Tong Sanpin who returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors. The Gu and Tong families became closer. Gu Lieqi and his wife respected Tong Mingyan and his wife, and Tong Mingyan and his wife also admired Gu Lieqi and his wife. The four of them often gathered together to eat and drink. Three months later, Tong Mingyan returned to the capital with his wife. The two children did not follow him, but agreed to wait three years after Gu Xihao's Tongsheng test, and then pick them up to go to the capital to receive instruction.

In just these three years, Gu Xixian was able to take advantage of the power of others and become very successful.
