Gu Jinan was a little disappointed, but he concealed his disappointment very well. He knew that this matter could not be rushed, and he had already confirmed that Miss Ouyang was Mr. Ouyang's granddaughter, which was enough to make him happy.

He withdrew his gaze, with a faint smile on his face, and followed Asong, listening to Asong's words: "Master knew that you would be back in the next two days, but you didn't go anywhere. You have been waiting in the house. You guys today We’ve finally arrived.”

Ah Song's words were filled with a smile, telling them that Mr. Ouyang cared about Gu Jinan very much.

Gu Jinan replied: "I should have come back a long time ago, but something happened in Linhe Mansion and I was delayed."

"What happened?" Gu Dewang asked, very curious.

Gu Jinan: "It's a long story. I'll tell you when I get back. Now I have to meet Mr. Ouyang."

Gu Dewang was a little depressed: "Brother Jin'an is really disappointing. I was just curious, but you kept it secret."

Gu Dexing said: "It's not that Brother An wants to sell things out, it's just that things in Linhe Mansion are really complicated."

Gu Dewang's eyes lit up and he asked, "Brother Dexing, do you also know?"

Gu Dexing nodded: "I know, this matter has caused quite a stir in Linhe Mansion."

He was talking about the Tongjia Iron Mine, but they not only experienced the Tongjia Iron Mine in Linhe Prefecture, but also Cao Juren's lawsuit against Gu Jinan. In short, there were a lot of things that couldn't be explained in just a few words. Finished.

Not long after, everyone arrived at the study yard. Mr. Ouyang was dressed in a gray robe and knelt down on a large bamboo mat spread on the ground. In the middle of the bamboo mat were two pots of tea and several plates of refreshments: "You are here. I have been waiting for you for a long time. If you don’t come again, I will close the stall and leave.”

"Close the stalls?" Gu Jin'an smiled: "Sir, I've been to a lot of markets recently and have set up stalls."

Mr. Ouyang likes to travel. Although he has not left Qingfu Town for a long time, he will go to nearby towns or rural markets to hang out when he has free time. He knows many farmers and gets along well with them.

Mr. Ouyang smiled, pointed to the bamboo mat under his knees and said: "I did not learn this from the farmers in the market, but imitated the ancient sages."

During the Zhou Dynasty and the previous dynasty, there were very few people sitting on chairs, and everyone sat on their knees.

Gu Jinan smiled: "Then the students will follow my husband and learn from the ancient sages today, and kneel down in the courtyard to talk about Taoism."

After hearing this, Mr. Ouyang waved his hands and said with a smile: "Hey, don't imitate me. I'm lying to you. I'm meeting you in this courtyard just because it's too hot. Please sit wherever you like."

After hearing this, Third Grandpa and the others were not polite. They sat on the bamboo mat. Third Grandpa also said with a smile: "It's almost like resting on the edge of the field when we are farming. If there is another gust of wind, it will be more comfortable."

Mr. Ouyang laughed and said, "Brother Gu is right, it's really the same as sitting in the fields."

Gu Dewang complained: "Sir, you are a great scholar, why do you always like to think of yourself as a farmer? You are still plowing the fields in your house. It's not that the students want to laugh at your age. The students are just curious. At this time when people are fertilizing, your family Do you still want to eat?"

"Shut up, you stinky boy!" Mr. Ouyang was so angry that he puffed his beard and stared at him, pointing at him and saying: "Did I have any grudge against you in my previous life? Why do you come to pour cold water on me every time I am happy? I'm afraid you don't deserve a beating. .”

Gu Dewang is not afraid of being beaten. He is only afraid that Mr. Ouyang will give him extra homework.

"What? Sir, you are really getting more and more clumsy. Now you are talking about "ye" and "what". In the past, you always liked to talk elegantly." Gu Dewang said with disgust, quickly picked up a piece of pastry, and immediately ran to the side. , dodged Mr. Ouyang's hand, turned around and smiled at Mr. Ouyang: "Sir, my hand is too short, so I can't hit him."

Mr. Ouyang was so angry that he pointed at him and said, "Just wait for me. Isn't there any way to cure you?"

Brother Cheng and Gu Defa shook their heads together. Brother Dewang liked to seek death so much. He was obviously afraid that his husband would give him extra homework, but he still insisted on stabbing him every day. Don't ask them for help when he was punished with homework.

Gu Jinan saw all this and said to Mr. Ouyang: "I heard from Brother Cheng that Mr. Cheng is in a good mood recently. Now that I see it, he is indeed very good."

"Well, my two granddaughters are here, so I am naturally in a good mood." Mr. Ouyang nodded, and did not shy away from talking about the visit of his two granddaughters. He also pointed to the tea and said: "This is my third granddaughter's first visit. The Yunya tea brought from the Beijing Tea Mountain has a taste that is different from the tea from the south of the Yangtze River, and is very good."

Gu Jinan's eyes lit up, he picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and said, "It is indeed a good tea. It has a rich aroma and a little sweetness, and has the taste of the majestic Cangshan Mountain in the north."

Gu Jinan's compliment was very good, but Mr. Ouyang said a little strangely: "Why did you drink it yourself?"

He has been in contact with Gu Jinan for a while and knows one of his habits, that is, when his family is around, he usually hands good things to them first. This is the first time he has seen Gu Jinan without taking into account Gu Laosan and Gu Laosan. Gu Dashan and Brother Cheng drank the tea themselves.

Gu Jinan: "It's hot, let's try the tea temperature."

As he said this, he put down the teacup and poured tea for the elders.

Shang Xiucai couldn't help but laugh. This boy was getting better and better at telling lies. He obviously lost his temper because he was happy about the tea brought by Miss Ouyang, but he could still say that he was testing the temperature of the tea for the elders.

When Gu Jinan handed the tea to Shang Xiucai, Shang Xiucai smiled and said meaningfully: "It's really fate that tea from the north comes from the south."

After hearing this, Gu Jinan suppressed the expression on his face, but his ears turned red.

Shang Xiucai laughed out loud, haha, you are not ashamed to let you pretend to be a brat.

Gu Jinan quickly put away his strange behavior and continued to serve tea to the elders.

Mr. Ouyang seemed to like his two granddaughters very much. He pointed to a few plates of tea and said, "This is made by Xiaowu. She is good at cooking. You can try it."

Although Gu Dewang hated Ouyang Wu's duplicity, he loved to eat, so he came over to eat a few more cakes. Mr. Chen glared at him fiercely and cursed: "You are blind because you didn't see your father." Mother, right?"

Gu Dewang hurriedly brought the cakes to his parents: "Mom and dad, eat it. It tastes really good. This is the secret recipe of a wealthy family and you can't eat it outside."

Gu Dewang didn't lie, these pastries were indeed delicious, but Gu Jinan didn't touch those pastries. Firstly, he didn't like them, and secondly, he couldn't bear to put down the tea in his hand.

Mr. Ouyang waited for them to have tea and then let them go back without asking them about the scientific examination.

The results are out, and there is nothing left to say or ask.

But Gu Jinan knelt down and said, "Thank you, sir, for your help. If it weren't for your article, the student's reputation would have been damaged, and he would have even lost his reputation as a scholar."
