On the day of departure, the whole family of Su Yongchang and Su Yongqiang came to see off Su Yu and Gu Changle.
Everything that needs to be explained has been explained, and there isn’t much to say.
He only occasionally said a few words to tell Su Yu to read his books carefully when he arrived in Fucheng and not to slack off, and to ask Gu Changle to take good care of Su Yu.
When the luxurious carriage that picked them up entered the village with a familiar route and stopped directly in front of Su Yu's house, the group of people were not as surprised as they were the first time they saw it.
He helped carry the luggage up and watched the carriage leave.
This time the two of them got acquainted a lot, and they were not as distant as when they came back last time.
Both of them feel quite at ease, and their sitting postures are relatively casual.
Halfway through the carriage, Su Yu was feeling a little sleepy.
A head hangs down from the shoulders.
Gu Changle was already one step ahead of him and fell into a drowsy sleep.
Su Yu gently moved her head so that it was stuck in the hollow of his shoulder, leaning against it comfortably.
He also squinted for a while.
As soon as I woke up, I ate some dry food, drank some water, and then arrived within the city limits.
At this time, it was not time to rush for the exam, so there were not many people entering and leaving the city.
I verified my identity, paid the capitation fee to enter the city, and entered the city smoothly.
The carriage went straight to Gu Changle's house, and Gu Changle couldn't help but lift the curtain and take a look.
"Should be arriving soon."
After entering the city, I felt like I was returning home.
When the carriage arrived at Gu Changle's house, Old Man Gu, who had gotten the news in advance from somewhere, personally met them at the door with his hands behind his back.
Su Yu got out of the car first, turned around and pulled Gu Changle out of the car.
The two of them said hello to Old Man Gu together.
"Grandpa, I'm back."
Gu Changle obviously seemed to be in a good mood.
Old Man Gu was still as kind as ever.
He looked at Gu Changle, who looked good even though he was dressed in coarse linen clothes.
And when he looked at Su Yu, his eyes were obviously different.
It can be seen that these two people must have gotten along well during these days.
Old Man Gu was quite satisfied with this.
"I came back earlier than the old man expected."
"But it just so happens that your Grandpa Zhao happened to be here today."
Behind Old Man Gu, there was also an old man with white hair and white beard standing, who had a rather celestial spirit.
Hearing Old Man Gu mention him, he stood up and said with a smile to Gu Changle and Su Yu, "I didn't expect Changle to get married suddenly."
"I haven't prepared a gift for the moment. I will make up for it in a few days."
Gu Changle seemed to be quite familiar with this Grandpa Zhao and said with a smile: "Okay, then Changle will be waiting for Grandpa Zhao's gift."
With that said, he introduced Su Yu beside him.
"This is my husband, Su Yu."
"I passed the government examination this time and became a child student. I will take the college examination in August."
Su Yu bowed his hands to the old man.
Old man Zhao squinted his eyes and looked Su Yu up and down.
"oh?"
"I heard from your grandpa that your husband-in-law took the Tongsheng Examination five times before finally becoming a Tongshenglang."
"Isn't this college examination also difficult?"
Old Zhao can stand beside Gu Fangxu, so he is certainly not an ordinary old man.
His name is Zhao Chengshu, he was the number one scholar in the palace examination in the 16th year of Yuanqing of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he was also the first number one scholar in Jiangling Mansion.
He once served as an official to the Minister of Household Affairs.
It was only a few years ago that I resigned and returned to my hometown to take care of myself.
Gu Fangxu is now Old Man Gu, and he is naturally Old Man Zhao.
Hearing that Gu Fangxu had found a peasant boy for his eldest granddaughter Gu Changle who had failed many times, he was full of curiosity about this person.
I also heard that it was Gu Fangxu who greeted the government office this time.
Only then did he fill in the name of this person, making him become a child with great difficulty.
He even said hello in advance that he would be allowed to pass the college examination directly.
As a great talent that was once admired by everyone, Zhao Chengshu naturally sneered at this.
He has seen Gu Changle since he was a child.
Such an outstanding girl was randomly matched with someone just because of her birth date.
When Zhao Chengshu heard this, he felt that Gu Fangxu had really lost his mind.
In the past few days, he came to visit Gu Fangxu from the provincial capital, and happened to meet Gu Changle and his two men returning.
Seeing her wearing coarse clothes, she felt a little dissatisfied with Su Yu.
He looks pretty good and has a lot of talent.
But that's all.
He has no ability and can only rely on his face to rely on his wife.
I'm afraid I won't be a freeloader from now on.
After hearing Old Man Zhao's words that smelled of gunpowder, Old Man Gu still had a smile on his face.
Didn't say anything to stop it.
Gu Changle said, "Grandpa Zhao is joking."
"My husband has failed in many attempts before, but he was just unlucky."
"The college examination is not difficult for him."
Su Yu also heard the meaning behind Old Man Zhao's words.
He had a smile on his face, but his expression didn't change much.
Hearing Gu Changle defend himself as always, he felt quite comfortable.
Old Man Zhao was a little surprised by Gu Changle's active defense.
It seems that this boy is quite popular with the little princess?
It was maintained so quickly.
He shook his head and laughed: "The imperial examination is not just about luck."
"Luck can protect him once, but it can't protect him every time."
He meant something.
When it comes to Xiucai, the Gu family can still keep him alive.
But when it comes to the provincial examination, what about the subsequent examination or even the palace examination?
Even the Gu family won't be able to stretch their hands that long by then.
Unless this kid is willing to eat soft rice from now on and live his whole life as a useless scholar, hiding in the shadow of the Gu family.
Su Yu raised his eyebrows slightly.
As soon as he arrived at Gu Changle's house, he didn't even have time to drink hot tea before he was tortured by his elders.
But during this period, Su Yu also noticed it.
In addition to being good-looking, Gu Changle is also a very good person.
Such a good cabbage was favored by a wild boy like him. It is really no wonder that these elders have such words.
However, Old Man Gu, a real grandfather, didn't say anything and treated him very politely.
Why does this Grandpa Zhao, who even has a different surname, keep stabbing himself?
Although what he said is true...
Su Yu smiled and said, "Grandpa Zhao is right."
"Good luck for a while cannot guarantee the future."
“But I think maybe this luck can also be an opportunity.”
"after all......"
“One day the great roc rises with the wind and soars ninety thousand miles.
If the wind stops and comes down, it can still blow away the water.
When people in the world see my extraordinary temperament, they all sneer when they hear my eloquent words.
Xuan's father is still afraid of future generations, but his husband cannot be young. "
"I'm still young, maybe my luck will continue to be good?"
Su Yu spoke calmly.
After saying that, the smile on Old Man Gu's face suddenly froze.
Old man Zhao also stayed where he was, looking at Su Yu blankly.
"W-what did you say?"
What an arrogant boy!
Then, he came back to his senses and glanced at Old Man Gu.
"Did you really pick this grandson-in-law up from the roadside?"
Old Man Gu was also shocked and smiled.
"Haha, who says it's not?"
