Gu Jin nodded, "I have plans in this regard. After all, my third uncle has now joined the cabinet. It would be inappropriate for me to be in the Hanlin Academy."

"But there is no shortage now, at least until next year. Wherever we go then, I will also listen to what my third uncle and your third uncle have to say."

Li Li thought for a while, "Can't you go back to your place of origin?"

Gu Jin nodded, "You can't go back to your place of origin. This is a rigid rule in the officialdom and must be avoided."

"But it should be possible to come to other prefectures or other counties in Jiangnan. In any case, we will discuss it when the time comes."

"There is at least a year left. We will stay in the capital. Then we will go to the local area. I still need my wife to take care of the house for me."

Li Li leaned on Gu Jin's shoulder, "They say that when you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, and when you marry a dog, follow the dog. Although this is a bit vulgar, it also makes sense."

"Since I'm married to you, I naturally want to work together with you. You go to the local government to be an official, and I manage the home, take care of my husband and raise my children, and you can also do well outside."

"Looking around at the local area, the elders in our family, you are very experienced, especially Aunt Liu. No matter where you go, you can make the local area rich."

"When the time comes, having Aunt Liu as your advisor can help you quickly lead the local people to get rich, and your political achievements will naturally be great."

"With three years of excellence, you will be promoted. If you are promoted, your husband will be honored and your wife will be honored. In the future, I will be able to become Mrs. Gaoming one day."

Gu Jin said: "I will try my best to make my wife a royal wife."

"Qilang, please." Li Li smiled and looked at her husband with soft eyes, "You have been diligent and down-to-earth since you were a child, and you have the guidance of your elders. You can also be a good official and benefit the people.

Become a good official respected by everyone."

Being looked at by his wife with admiring eyes, Gu Jin suddenly felt that he was great and would definitely become a frontier official and a pillar of the country in the future.

After returning home on the third day, Mrs. Liu kept looking at the door when she woke up in the morning.

Li Fang also knew that her mother was thinking about her sister, so she said softly: "Mom, even if Ali comes back today, she still has to wait until Madam Gu rescues the princess and pays her respects before she can come all the way here."

"It's already great that you can get home before lunch. You're just waiting here with your neck stretched out without even eating breakfast. You're too anxious."

Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "I have to know whether your sister is doing well after marriage, so that I can feel completely at ease."

Li Fang thought for a while, "Since you can't let go of Ali, then when Third Uncle and Aunt Liu return to the capital, you can go with them."

"Ali and Gu Jin are also in the capital. Even if you don't want to live in your son-in-law's house, you should not have any psychological burden if you live in Aunt Liu's house."

Ms. Liu was slightly startled, "I have never been to such a far place!"

"So what if the place is far away? Aunt Liu and Third Uncle are in the capital. With them here, you don't have to be afraid." Li Fang comforted, "While you are still young and strong, walk around more and see more."

Mrs. Liu hesitated for a moment, then looked at her eldest daughter in embarrassment, "Then I'm going to the capital, don't you miss me?"

"You are getting married. Maybe you will be pregnant soon. I can still take care of you when I am by your side."

Li Fang knew that her mother wanted to go to the capital. After all, her sister had only come back after three years away from home. She just stayed at home for a month or two. How could she ease her longing?

Li Fang smiled and took her mother's arm for a walk in the yard.

"I know you love me, but you also have to love Ali. My mother-in-law is a reliable person, and she is a member of the clan in Jixiang Town. Grandma Cuihua and my sister-in-law can protect me."

"But Ali is different. I heard that now that she has passed, she has bought a small courtyard in the capital and moved out from the Gu family."

"Ali and Gu Jin live in the capital without any elders around them. If they encounter some small things in life and don't know the severity, they will inevitably suffer."

"Especially when Gu Jin's parents died young. If Ali is pregnant, even though she has servants but no elders around her, wouldn't that girl Ali be panicked?"

After hearing her daughter's words and this comparison, Mrs. Liu felt that she must go to the capital this time.

Ms. Liu held her daughter's hand and said softly: "Afang, after hearing what you said, I still feel that your sister needs me more."

"As you said, now that Gu Jin and Ali are living alone, if your sister gets pregnant, it's really not possible without an elder by her side."

Li Fang also nodded, "You can't worry about it, and I can't worry about Ali either. In Jixiang Town, my mother-in-law was very good to me, and she wanted to keep me as a child."

"Even if I get pregnant in the future, my mother-in-law will take good care of me, and there will be acquaintances around me to help each other, so you don't have to worry about me and can follow Ali to the capital with peace of mind."

"If you are embarrassed to live with Ali, you can live with Aunt Liu."

Mrs. Liu waved her hand when she heard this, "What's wrong with me living in my daughter's house? When I married my daughter, I also gave her a dowry after marriage. I went to Ali's house to live with money, and it didn't cost Gu Qilang's money.

.”

Li Fang gave a thumbs up when she heard her mother's domineering words.

"Mom, that's how it should be. Living at your daughter's house is a matter of course. If you've had enough of staying at Ali's house, you can also go to Aunt Liu's house."

Li Li and others finally arrived home before lunch.

Li Yuanqing and Li Dabao did not expect that the eldest prince and the second prince would come again, so they had to entertain them with all their heart.

Mrs. Liu finally felt relieved when she saw Li Li's rosy complexion.

After dinner, the second prince asked, "Dabao, can you take us to the Jixiang Library? My eldest brother and I are very interested in the miscellaneous studies and research on things here."

Li Dabao smiled and said, "Of course you can. We have miscellaneous studies in the afternoon, so we can take classes together."

So Li Dabao and Li Xiaobao took Gu Jin, the eldest prince and the second prince to the Jixiang Library.

Those who were dedicated to the Four Books and Five Classics did not study at this time, but came out to practice martial arts and exercise in the open space.

After exercising for an hour, go back and take arithmetic class.

In addition, there are many types of miscellaneous courses.

There are carpentry classes, blacksmith classes, masonry classes, and construction classes, which specialize in teaching people to build houses.

They also teach skills such as farming, growing flowers and grass, pruning and grafting.

After listening to it for a while, the eldest prince was astonished.

It turns out that these things can still be learned in this way!

Traditionally, you have to learn from a master, but now you study directly in the school.

The master here is not just a scholar who only reads books from sages, but also old farmers in the fields, as well as skilled carpenters and blacksmiths...

At this time, the eldest prince was standing in the grafting class. The old master above was talking about the benefits of dwarfing mulberry trees and the precautions for cuttings.
