Chapter 986: Good Job


    Editor: Henyee Translations


    Many people in the village looked over with anxious eyes.


    Of course, there were also people who were secretly gloating. The Gu family had money, land, and shops. Their lives were already enviable. If Gu Dajiang also became an Elementary Scholar, wouldn’t the Gu family be in heavens?


    Wouldn’t the entire Yongfu Village be surnamed Gu?


    It was said that Gu Dajiang’s examination shed was close to the toilet. It would be strange if he could pass.


    Therefore, when someone asked what rank he got, someone who seemed to be kind but was actually stabbing a knife immediately said, “Dajiang, it doesn’t matter if you didn’t perform well. There’s still another year if you didn’t pass this year. I heard that those in their seventies or eighties are still insisting. Don’t give up. You’re still young and your children are filial. When you enter the examination hall with Yunshu later, it might be a beautiful story.”


    Most of the people could not tell. Some even nodded in agreement. “That’s right, that’s right.”


    Gu Yundong narrowed her eyes.


    Shao Qingyuan looked directly at the person who had spoken just now. His sharp gaze was like a wild wolf’s.


    “Brother Gu, you have to treat us. Let’s have a good time together, right?”


    Gu Dajiang opened his mouth. He had only passed one county examination. There was no need to do this...


    Gu Yundong also understood that it was not appropriate to be too high-profile now. She immediately said, “There’s no hurry for a celebration. When my father becomes an Elementary Scholar, we will naturally have to celebrate. My father still has to participate in the prefectural examination in April and really doesn’t have time. He will rush to the prefectural city tomorrow or the day after.”


    Chen Liang hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, yes. The prefectural examination is more important. We can’t let other things affect your studies now.”


    Then, he waved at the villagers. “Alright, alright. Don’t stand there. Go back and do your own things.”


    The villagers still wanted to say something. This was the county champion. It was good to shake hands and bask in the joy.


    However, Chen Liang did not allow it. Everyone could only retreat regretfully and make way for the Gu family.


    Ah Mao had already gotten off the horse and was stepping on the firm and flat ground. He couldn’t help but stamp his feet and whisper to Shao Qingyuan, “Young Master, this is the path that Miss has built. It’s so comfortable to walk on.”


    Shao Qingyuan nodded, looking proud.


    The Gu family finally returned home. Gu Dajiang heaved a sigh of relief.


    However, although the Gu family did not intend to treat the villagers, they still had to celebrate within the family.
