Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

   Li Baolu got up before dawn. Today is the day of the announcement, and she wants to see the results.

   Lightly dressed, she turned around to meet Gu Jingyun with bright eyes on the opposite bed, she was startled, and then realized that Gu Jingyun hadn't slept well.

  Li Baolu pursed her lips and smiled. She thought he was confident that he would win the first place, so she was not uneasy.

  Gu Jingyun saw that Li Baolu was already dressed, so he sat up lazily and leaned on the pillow, and said, "Eat first before you go.

   "I'll go to the street to buy two buns and bring them with me. You can sleep for a while." Li Baolu washed up quickly, took the money and went out.

   She felt that she came out early enough, who knew that there were already many people waiting in front of the ceremony room, occupying all the seats in front of the announcement wall.

  Li Baolu squeezed to the front with her dexterity, and then waited for the announcement.

As the day approached, there was already a sea of ​​people in front of the ceremony room. Not only the candidates and their families were waiting for the announcement of the rankings, but the inns that received the candidates also sent their staff to watch the rankings. There were also many yamen officers standing beside the ceremony room, waiting for the prefect. After singing the list, send the list, so that you can get some reward money.

  Li Baolu stood in the first row, staring at the door of the ceremony room with bright eyes, quite a feeling of waiting for the results of the college entrance examination in a previous life.

At   chen, the door of the ceremony room slowly opened, and the prefect and the two deputy examiners came with a red list. This was the top list, and it was the top three in the academy examination, starting from the third place.

Li Baolu stared at the prefect with her heart in mind, and the voices around her gradually drifted away from her. Li Baolu could only hear the prefect's voice. She clenched her fists and stared at him intently, until he heard the prefect's voice. When I heard the words "Qiongzhou Gu Jingyun", my heart dropped a little.

After the    prefect rolls his name, he handed over the red list to the yamen on the side, and asked them to post the list. Another red list was sent to the ceremonial room. This is the second one, from the fourth to the fiftyth place.

  Li Baolu didn't pay attention to them anymore, but squeezed to the front to see the red list just posted, looked at the first place, and confirmed that Gu Jingyun's name was the place of origin. Then he waved his fist excitedly, struggling to squeeze out of the crowd.

   And the yamen has also received the red list and rode a fast horse to the inn where the top three stayed to announce the good news.

  Li Baolu squeezed out from the side, took a short cut with luck, and just rushed back to the inn before the yamen.

   There is no way, the yamen wants to circle the city to announce the good news, but she goes wherever she goes.

  Li Baolu sprinted up to the third floor, making it impossible for the candidates who stayed in the inn to stop her to ask for news.

   Everyone just thought that just as they raised their hands, the man blew up to the third floor like a gust of wind.

  Li Baolu still complained in her heart, she didn't read the list if she had nothing to do, what did she do in the inn, so that she didn't dare to throw light on her work, so she could only run, for fear of scaring these scholars.

  Li Baolu rushed into the room and excitedly shouted to the people in the room: "Jingyun, the list is out, you have the case!"

Everyone in the room was slightly startled, Gu Jingyun smiled after a while, Zhao Ning also quickly reacted, got up and said congratulations to Gu Jingyun, and several other people also responded, busy saying congratulations to Gu Jingyun, but when he talked again, he was a little absent-minded, Obviously also concerned about the results.

Only then did Li Baolu realize that there were a lot of people in the room, she lowered her head and smiled shyly at everyone, then picked up the teapot in the corner of the room to make tea for everyone, and said with a smile, "I don't take good care of you, please forgive me, I will announce the good news later. The yamen is here, and I'm going to prepare some reward money first."

   Zhao Ning got up and said, "Brother and sister, let's go, we will also go down to the lobby to wait for news, so we won't disturb you."

  Gu Jingyun sent the person out of the room, and after closing the door, he asked with bright eyes, "Have you seen the list?"

  Li Baolu nodded again and again, "I've confirmed it again and again, the name, birthdate and place of origin are all correct."

  The corners of Gu Jingyun's mouth lifted up. He was very confident in his talent, but exams are never just about talent. Before the results are finalized, anything is possible.

  Li Baolu took out five taels of silver and ran to the shopkeeper, and exchanged all the coins with him as a reward.

The shopkeeper didn't expect that the head of the case was actually in their inn, so he was happily walking around and seeing Li Baolu brought the silver, he patted his chest and said, "Madam, don't worry, now the silver to copper plate is one tael to one thousand one to one thousand two. Don't wait, how about I exchange it for you at one thousand and two?"

   "Then many thanks to the shopkeeper."

  Li Baolu just got the copper plate, when the gong was banging outside, and she heard a good news from a distance, she knew that the yamen of the good news had arrived, and she hurriedly took the copper plate and went out to give a reward.

   She gave two hangings of copper plates to the yamen, and gave one to the servants for them to share, and the other two were distributed to the beggars and people waiting outside.

   This is what she inquired about with the shopkeeper early in the morning. This reward is not the best, but it is definitely not bad.

  Li Baolu scattered all the money, so she happily went back to find the shopkeeper's order for the evening's drinks. Gu Jingyun High School, why should you invite a few good friends for a meal.

Just as he turned around, he was stopped by a strong middle-aged man. He glanced at Li Baolu hesitantly and asked, "But Mrs. Gu's wife?"

  Li Baolu nodded with a smile, "Yeah, what's the matter with Uncle?"

   "My lord wants to invite the young master to a banquet in the evening," the middle-aged man looked at Li Baolu again, and then gave her the invitation, "I also ask the young master to be there at night."

   This is very rude, Li Baolu took the invitation and asked with a smile, "I don't know who your lord is?"

   "Young Master Gu will naturally know after reading the invitation." The middle-aged man clasped his fists, turned around and left.

  Li Baolu opened the invitation, and it was obvious that the inscription at the bottom was Zhou Gonghe.

Zhou Yi, the prefect of Guangzhou, whose courtesy name is Gonghe, Gu Jingyun said that his qualifications were mediocre, and he had little success in political affairs, and even suffered setbacks in Guangzhou’s commercial development because he saw businessmen clearly, but he attached great importance to scholars and was especially tolerant in literature. One of the reasons for taking the case.

   After all, if he encounters an examiner like Tan Qian, it would be really difficult for him to get ahead.

  Li Baolu didn't expect that before the singing was over, the servants of his family came to invite Gu Jingyun. This consideration may not be a good thing.

   Gu Jingyun obviously thought so too. He closed the invitation and said, "Let the shopkeeper arrange a table for the evening as usual. I will ask Zhao Ning to help me entertain, and you will go to the banquet with me."

   "What can Duke Zhou have to do with you?"

   "It's nothing more than wooing or warning. If wooing, I have my own words to reject him. If it is a warning," Gu Jingyun's face sank, "What do I have to warn him?"

  Li Baolu looked at him worriedly, obviously they thought of the same point, I was afraid that Zhou Gonghe knew Gu Jingyun's origin and would be in trouble with the Zhongyonghou Mansion in the capital.

"It's a disaster, so let's just go. As soon as the list comes out, I'm already famous, and he doesn't dare to tell me what to do with me. Besides, isn't there still you?" Gu Jingyun smiled at her, "If What is he really going to do, you can always bring me out?"

  Li Baolu froze, patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely be able to!"

   But she thought of the middle-aged man. At that time, his eyes might have doubted her kung fu, right?

   I just hope that Duke Zhou and the people around him learn hard skills like middle-aged men.

There was a lot of noise under the inn. Candidates who didn't watch the rankings stayed in the lobby waiting for news. There were high school students and some who failed the rankings. The joys and sorrows were intertwined. Zhao Ning also knew from his book boy that he was No. 16 in high school. , almost jumped up with joy.

With a big wave of his hand, he rewarded the yamen Wuliang who came to announce the good news, and then excitedly came to Gu Jingyun. Hearing that Gu Jingyun asked him to help entertain a few friends, he waved his hand rudely: "Why so troublesome, Why don't you give it to me together, I'll pay you to have a meal, and it will be a banquet for you and us."

   Zhao Ning's family is a big landlord in Huizhou and is not short of money at all.

   Gu Jingyun said after thinking about it: "Then you invite them, just leave me a bowl of water and wine. When I come back in the evening, I will pay tribute to you. These days, I rely on you to take care of me."

Zhao Ning regretted it as soon as he finished speaking. Even though he was not short of money, it was like Gu Jingyun was short of money, but seeing that he didn't mind at all, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly smiled: "This is It should be, don't say a bowl, just leave the whole altar for you, but where are you going at night?"

  Gu Jingyun & Li Baolu: "..." Coauthoring what they said just now was all in vain, this person didn't even listen!

   At this time, the prefect who had just returned from the ceremony room was seeing his parents, "How, can you see Gu Jingyun?"

   "I didn't see Gu Jingyun, but I saw Gu Jingyun's wife."

   Duke Zhou stayed for a while, and then hesitantly asked, "If I remember correctly, Gu Jingyun is not yet fourteen years old, so he got married so early?"

   Children in the Guangdong area get married early, but that is in the middle and lower classes. In order to pay less tax and one person’s rations, in the upper middle class, boys usually don’t get married until the 16th or 17th year, and girls don’t have to get married until later.

  Gu Jingyun is a scholar and can live in the upper room of the inn. It can be seen that he has a lot of money, so how could he get married so early?

   He still wants to have a good relationship with him and be a matchmaker or something.

"It is said that he was a childhood sweetheart, and his family married him early because he was worried that he would not be able to take care of himself when he was away. His daughter-in-law was younger than him, and she was childish, but she acted calmly. It can be seen that she is a virtuous wife. Moreover," Chang Sui hesitated for a moment and said, "Looking at her light footsteps, it seems that she has practiced martial arts."
