Too many ladies in the capital envy their cousin. The fourth uncle decided to Gu Sheng and kept laughing behind his back at his cousin's marriage, waiting to see Gu Sheng's betrothal gift!

Minghui said playfully: "Gu Sheng cannot be exhausted."

In the Hanlin Academy, Gu Sheng took advantage of the rest time and thought that he still lacked something. He started preparing the betrothal gifts a few years ago. He took out all the money for his betrothal gifts. He was moved but did not ask for the big brother's money. The big brother already had his own small family.

Since Lord Zhou clearly confirmed that he was his son-in-law, he had never sold his paintings. Even if someone asked him to buy them at a high price, he had never sold them. He had earlier asked his future son-in-law to sell a few paintings to the south, and he had obtained a lot of money. With the accumulation and business income, he could still get a betrothal gift of 10,000 taels.

Gu Sheng frowned, but unfortunately he couldn't get antique calligraphy and paintings, and the betrothal gift was still a bit bad. The more he thought about it, the tighter his eyebrows became.

Chang Zhi got the errand for editing books today. He just chose the staff and thought that Gu Sheng came to find someone specifically.

Gu Sheng looked up and stood up quickly, "Sir."

Changzhi sat down and said his purpose, "I didn't want to interfere in your future. Today I got an errand to edit books. Don't underestimate the editing books. I see the meaning above is a big move, so I want to ask if you will continue to stay in the Hanlin Academy?"

Gu Sheng hurriedly greeted me, "Thank you for your consideration. I have agreed with the future prince consort and he has helped me operate privately."

Changzhi said it was a pity when he heard this, and then he felt relieved that he had a personal opportunity, "Since that's the case, just pretend I haven't said it."

Gu Sheng, "Thank you, sir, for thinking about me."

Changzhi was very busy and got up and went back, but Gu Sheng didn't feel sorry. He had plans for his future.

When he went to the yamen, Gu Sheng went out to meet his son-in-law Wu Shangheng, "Why are you here?"

Wu Shangheng signaled to get on the carriage, but Gu Sheng almost had no place to sit on the carriage. He saw that there were many boxes in the carriage, "What did you buy again?"

Wu Shangheng pointed to the box, "I took it out and exchanged it with you."

Gu Sheng opened the box in confusion. The long box was covered with ancient paintings, and the other boxes were paired ornaments. He practiced his eyesight with Wu Shangheng and knew the value of these things very well. "I know you want to help me, but I can't take advantage of you. You have helped me a lot."

Wu Shangheng said, "You and I are friends, how can you take advantage of it? I think your paintings have the value of collection. In the future, it is difficult to find a fortune. Now I have changed all the paintings in your hands, and I feel that I have taken advantage of it."

He helped his friends on one hand, and he didn't say anything about it. Moreover, he liked someone to be slapped in the face. They didn't want to see the betrothal gift joke, but he wanted to see who was the joke.

Gu Sheng greeted him, "I know your kindness. If I postpone it any more, it will be pretentious. In the future, I will just say that I don't want any penny if you want."

Wu Shangheng laughed, "I took a big advantage this time."

Time flies, and the day before the Spring Examination Entrance, last year's imperial examination case made this year's spring examination particularly strict. This time, food is not allowed to be brought into the examination room. The examination room will be responsible for food, and some things cannot be brought in. They have been printed in the newspaper early to notify the reference juren.

The new rules were also posted outside the examination room. No food is allowed to be brought to the approval of the juren. Most of the juren who refer to the juren will not take care of themselves. The juren who refer to the juren will eat either cold and hard cakes or greasy snacks. Now that it is good, you don’t have to worry about food, and you can still have a lot of time to rest.

Today, the master of the Zhou Hou’s mansion was at home. In the past, there was no such big noise in the reference at home, and the married daughters were also back.

Zhou Shuren specially asked for one and a half days off for his old son's spring exam, and was preparing to send his son to the examination room tomorrow.

Chang Zhi is over thirty years old and still can't help but feel sad. The old son and grandson are indeed the lifeblood. Look at the old man's concern!

Zhou Shuren not only cared about his son, but also personally inspected the supplies brought to the examination room, and checked them no less than three times.

Chang Zhong looked at the room, his smile on his face had not changed. He patiently replied to anyone's concern, and he advised him not to worry about him.

Mingjing and others sat in the corner, pulling their brother's sleeves, "Brother, my uncle is so awesome."

If he had to be afraid before the exam, he thought about the test questions that his uncle had done, and his back felt cold. He thought that he would never take the exam for the juren even if he was less than 25 years old.

Minghui also admired him, "You don't even think about the uncle who taught me."

Mingjing swallowed his saliva. Uncle Wu Ming was also a great man. Who doesn’t know that Lord Wu on the grassland? Then he laughed secretly. In this way, his backers are not only awesome, but also awesome. Not only can he walk sideways, but his descendants can do it in the future!

Minghui knocked his brother on the head, "It's all about you!"

Mingjing looked up and laughed dryly, "When I don't exist."

Chang Zhong laughed, Mingjing was the most funny among the nephews, and waved, "Come and sit."

Mingjing didn't want to go, so she was pushed out by her brother. She was so squeamish that she was kicked by her father, covering her butt and frowned, "It hurts."

Boss Zhou was angry. What was this kid joining in the fun today? "It hurts."

Zhulan glared at him and signaled Mingjing to come and sit, "This is Mingjing's heart. How old is Mingjing? You don't know how proud you are for your children!"

Zhou Shuren said that Mingjing was fat again, "I am indeed broad-minded and fat."

Mingjing wanted to shrink her stomach, but her stomach was still bulging without any use.

Mrs. Li said speechlessly: "Don't shrink, your belly is solid."

With a coaxing sound, everyone in the room laughed out loud. Ming Jing's ears turned red, and then he laughed as he looked at it because the atmosphere was relaxed.

The whole family had a reunion dinner in the evening. When the main courtyard became quiet, Zhulan and his wife washed up. Shuren had no intention of rest. Then Zhulan saw Shuren and criticized the cloak, "Where are you going?"

Shuren said: "I'll go see my son."

Zhulan also wanted to go and see it, then thought, "You go."

Shuren put the cloak together and pushed the door out. Zhulan shook her head with a chuckle. She didn't see that her son was nervous, but her husband was even more nervous.

In Changzhong's yard, the servant who was watching the night watches see the lantern. When he saw it carefully, he turned out to be the marquis. He hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, "I have seen the marquis."

Zhou Shuren looked at the closed gate, "Young Master, can you rest?"

The servant replied in a low voice, "The lights have been turned off and rest."

As servants, they all admire their young masters, thinking that the young master would be nervous and unable to sleep, and they thought too much. When the young master arrived, the lights turned off and rested on time.

Zhou Shuren stood at the door and pondered for a moment: "Be careful to open the door."

When the servant heard this, he opened the door. Zhou Shuren took the lantern in and did not let anyone follow him. The woman who went to her son's bedroom to watch the night was busy opening the door.

Because the lanterns were shining in the room, Zhou Shuren walked carefully to the window, afraid that his son would not stand at the head of the bed. Seeing that his son was really asleep and smiling, he looked at it for a while before turning around and leaving.
