Gu Renwu frowned when he heard what the village chief said, and he glanced at Jing Dongheng.

Jing Dongheng took silver money to the village chief. He made a hundred taels, and he had to pay 15 taels to pay the tax. The village chief gave him a tax certificate and left.

"Based on this, how can ordinary people do business and raise livestock?" Jing Dongheng said in astonishment.

Gu Renwu sneered and said in a low voice: "The superiors are stupid, the harem is chaotic, and the treacherous officials in the court are in power, it is natural."

"It's not easy to have a peaceful life." Jing Dongheng sighed, then turned around to search for something.

Gu Renwu asked him what he was looking for, but he saw Jing Dongheng took out a few worn-out books from a side cabinet, and he checked to make sure they were serious books.

Gu Renwu looked at Jing Dongheng with even more doubts.

Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu's appearance and said, "What? I don't look like someone who loves reading?",

Gu Renwu nodded and shook his head quickly.

Jing Dongheng glanced at the words on the book for a few times, feeling a little wandering in his heart, he waved to Gu Renwu.

Gu Renwu walked over, and Jing Dongheng asked him to sit next to him.

"What are you doing?" Gu Renwu still didn't understand what Jing Dongheng was going to do.

Jing Dongheng pinched Gu Renwu's ear, and said, "I want to read some books to test a scholar or something, so as to reduce taxes. You also know that our business will grow bigger and bigger in the future. Such a deal The law can't do it."

"But don't talk about juren, even if you are a scholar, you can't take the exam overnight." Gu Renwu remembered that Jing Dongheng had read the book of that talented woman, thinking that a talented woman should be a good scholar.

"If you want to take the exam, you can." Gu Renwu said and stood up.

But Jing Dongheng stopped him and said, "It's boring to read like this."

"Then what do you want to do? Find a teacher for you? Or go to school?" Gu Renwu asked puzzled.

Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu and said, "Do you support me in studying?"

Gu Renwu nodded and said: "Of course, but you told me this, you don't want me to be with you, do you? Then I can't do it."

"I won't let you come with me, but I want you to encourage me." Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu and said, "I read a book, you have to reward me once."

"What do you mean?" Gu Renwu looked at Jing Dongheng with a hot face.

Jing Dongheng whispered a few words quickly, Gu Renwu immediately shook his head, and said: "You have no idea, the book is a sage's book, not your way of reading it."

"Why not? Teach students according to their aptitude." Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu and said, "I am also doing this for our family, waiting for me to become the master of Juren in the future. Don't you also follow to save face?"

Gu Renwu laughed, he looked at Jing Dongheng like this, and thought in his heart that if Jing Dongheng can really pass the exam, and when he takes him back, his mother probably has nothing to say, but it will save a lot few things.

"Okay, I agree." Gu Renwu said: "But I have to buy new books for you, and the old books you read before don't count."

"Yes." Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu with bright eyes and agreed.

After Gu Renwu and the two agreed on this matter, they went to the town to buy books in the afternoon.

There is only one place to buy books in the town, and the people who come in and out are all reading. I was a little surprised to see Gu Renwu and Jing Dongheng coming over.

Gu Renwu indifferently asked for a few books, but some of them were not available.

"Except for the old scholar's house in the town or the master Juren's house, I'm afraid the others will go to the county town." The people in the bookstore looked at Gu Renwu, and felt that he didn't look like a student, and then looked at the well. Dongheng, there is something interesting.

"Just take whatever you have." Jing Dongheng flipped the book over casually.

Gu Renwu looked at Jing Dongheng, although he knew that Jing Dongheng had already got the secretary of the talented woman in his mind, but how much he could understand is another matter.

What worries Gu Renwu even more is that he has never seen Jing Dongheng write.

"Yo, Dongheng, how about shopping in the bookstore?"

I happened to meet a scholar from the same village, and I was surprised to see Jing Dongheng picking up paper, ink, pens and inkstones.

Jing Dongheng nodded.

Gu Renwu glanced at the other party, thinking that he would say something, but he didn't expect that the other party was so used to it and walked away.

Gu Renwu looked at Jing Dongheng, and found that he picked something without asking the people in the store.

"It's been a long time since I started writing, so let's pick up some suitable ones and take them home." Jing Dongheng said and bought a lot and put them away.

Gu Renwu looked at the people in the bookstore who helped him wrap things that also had a small box.

"Humph!"

When the two of them were going out, they met two people who looked like scholars, and when they saw Jing Dongheng carry out a small box generously, they were all disdainful.

Gu Renwu glared at each other, and the two opened their mouths to say something, but in the end they were forced by Gu Renwu's power, so they could only enter the bookstore resentfully.

When they arrived at the bookstore, they talked about Jing Dongheng's way of buying books like a nouveau riche: "I'm afraid he is another nouveau riche who wants to be arty, but the poor sage's book fell into the hands of such a person."

"What are you talking about? It's just that he hasn't read it all these years. You haven't heard of the reputation of the Jing family's four child prodigies before?" He happened to raise his voice to someone from the same village as Jing Dongheng.

Speaking of this name, everyone in the bookstore turned their heads and looked over.

"Oh, he was the very famous child prodigy back then? Then why didn't he make any noise afterwards? I think it's all blown out!" The two said with a sneer.

The scholar just shook his head and said: "There are so many involved in this, it's hard to tell you about it for a while, anyway, he has started to study again now, so there is no need to laugh at him."

"Brother Xu said that as long as you are willing to read, you are good." The bookstore stopped talking after saying this.

On the other side, Jing Dongheng is taking Gu Renwu to check out his new store.

As soon as the store was tidied up, Li Wanzi began to put the goods on the shelves, but he was sitting at the counter, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.

"Someone from the town came and said that our shop is missing a lot of things." Li Wanzi handed the document to Jing Dongheng.

Jing Dongheng glanced at it, his complexion was a little bad, and he directly handed the document to Gu Renwu.

Gu Renwu knew at a glance that he was deliberately making things difficult.

He glanced at Jing Dongheng, put away the paperwork silently, and told Li Wanzi what to do, and they would deal with it naturally.

After waiting for the two to come out, Gu Renwu said with a gloomy expression: "It seems that your third brother is the one who deliberately came to bully our shop."

"Can it be solved?" Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu and said.

Gu Renwu nodded and said: "It's not good to always bother those people, I'll just deal with it myself."

"What are you going to do?" Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu in surprise and worried.

Gu Renwu twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "Although I am no longer a general, I still have some shadows. These are enough to deal with a small county magistrate."

"But wouldn't that expose your affairs here?" Jing Dongheng said worriedly.

"It's okay to be exposed, and they will be more at ease when they know, and you and I are going to get married, and sooner or later the things here will be known to those people." Gu Renwu finished packing his things and walked from the town to the county. in.

He didn't let Jing Dongheng follow him, because he didn't want Jing Dongheng to see him faint from the fright of magistrate Liu. "Trash stuff."

The corners of Jing Dongheng's mouth grinned, maybe he hasn't fully revealed his fierce side for a long time.

After he came out, the setting sun of the county town slowly enveloped him, and the murderous Gu Renwu who was dormant in his heart became quieter little by little.

When I arrived at Jingjia Village, I saw Jing Dongheng standing at the entrance of the village chatting with someone.

At that moment, his heart trembled again, and he opened his mouth to call Dong Heng.

When Jing Dongheng saw Gu Renwu came back, he walked over with a smile.

When approaching, Jing Dongheng squeezed Gu Renwu's ears, and Gu Renwu couldn't help laughing.

He believed that if he was seen by the county magistrate Liu or people from Jingzhou Prefecture, he would be scared to death.

It's not that he is pretending now, but that he has learned how to restrain himself and let his warmer side approach Jing Dongheng, so that Jing Dongheng will like him more.

"Is everything done?" Jing Dongheng asked.

"It's done, no one will come to delay our business in the future, and your third brother won't know why, and he won't be able to trouble us through County Magistrate Liu. I think he will be very happy Depressed." Gu Renwu said with a sneer.

Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu's appearance as a wild wolf, and couldn't help reaching out to caress the back of his neck, making Gu Renwu gradually settle down.

"Just in time for dinner." After Jing Dongheng finished speaking, Aunt Hua brought over the meal.

Aunt Hua came over and asked Gu Renwu what he was up to, which made Jing Dongheng so worried that the food had to wait for Gu Renwu to arrive.

"Auntie." Jing Dongheng coughed.

Aunt Hua smiled and left.

Over there, Gu Renwu lit a candle and came over, put it there and said, "Are you afraid that I will see the magistrate Liu with a knife?"

"It's okay." Jing Dongheng said with a smile.

Gu Renwu looked at Jing Dongheng and said, "Don't worry, I won't be so resentful that I would be murdered because of a little unfairness, especially since I am not as good as before, and I am a family member now."

Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu's affectionate expression, and said with some embarrassment: "I'm not worried to that extent, anyway, I just want you to come back sooner."

Gu Renwu smiled, reached out and patted Jing Dongheng.

Jing Dongheng looked at him and smiled, the two sat there and ate the food, Gu Renwu cleaned up the dishes, and when he entered the room, he saw Jing Dongheng was really reading with a book.

He couldn't help but stop for a while, and said, "I'll go outside for a walk."

"No, I'm just looking at it casually." Jing Dongheng took out a booklet from the other side and said, "It just so happens that I have another book here, and I want to ask you for advice."
