After Xiao Fubao’s Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital

Chapter 122 The world is vast

Gu Zhao made a sad face and said: "The things a little girl plays with are the most boring."

Having said that, Gu Zhao still honestly took out a big bag from the house. After opening it, it was full of all kinds of messy gadgets.

"What do you want to play?" Gu Zhao asked.

Luo Zhang and Fang Yuan saw that there was a big red hair flower in the pile of trinkets. They suspected that it was some kind of girl's game like playing house, and couldn't help but take two steps back.

Niu Niu rolled her eyes and asked, "Play house, you play the daughter, and I'll be the father."

"I won't play!" Luo Zhang and Fang Yuan said in unison.

Niu Niu was very talkative and asked, "How about playing shuttlecock?"

When the two new friends had to choose between pretending to be girls and playing shuttlecock, they chose to play shuttlecock without hesitation.

They couldn't help but think, had they known this, they might as well have caught bugs, at least they would have looked more manly.

As soon as Mr. Luo left the house, he saw his grandson Luo Zhang playing shuttlecock in the yard and sweating profusely.

Niu Niu clenched her fists and shouted: "There will be ten soon, work harder!"

Luo Zhang kicked the shuttlecock awkwardly, his body was crooked, and he looked like he would be unable to catch it, but he caught it in an extremely thrilling way.

Luo Zhang's nanny frowned and stared at him, and whispered: "Old man, the young master is usually very clean, but today it looks like he rolled in the mud."

Mr. Luo waved his hand casually. Not only did he not stop him, but he said happily: "Since his mother passed away, this child has not been as happy as he is now for a long time."

On this day, the Luo family stayed at Gu's house until sunset before leaving.

Luo Zhang and Fang Yuan were reluctant to leave because they hadn't met a compatible playmate for a long time.

Gu Zhao was not willing to watch them leave, because he would miss a day's work because of the guests.

But while eating, Gu Zhao felt like a bolt from the blue when he learned that he was going to study at Luo's house.

"I study very well at home, why should I study at someone else's house..." Gu Zhao was very unhappy.

But he couldn't change what the elders had decided.

Niu Niu tilted her head and asked Gu Mingda: "I still have to work in the shop. I can't study every day. Besides, I'm still a girl. Dad, how about I stop causing trouble?"

Gu Mingda stretched out his hand and touched the top of Niu Niu's soft hair, and said softly: "Girls should also study hard. Studying will never cause trouble. Besides, there are also holidays when studying at Luo's house. You can go to the shop that day. Just inside.”

Niu Niu looked at Zhang Yuniang reluctantly, tears about to flow out: "Don't I have no time to accompany you? I prefer spending time with my parents and grandparents rather than studying."

Niuniu's emotion is sincere.

However, as if he was suddenly reminded, Gu Zhao followed Niu Niu's example and said pitifully: "I don't want to study, I just want to be with you..."

But in response, Gu Mingda knocked on his forehead gently: "You think insects are real, but we are all fake."

Gu Mingda looked at the four children solemnly again: "The gentleman invited by the Luo family to sit here is a master of civil affairs. Ordinary people can't even come to his door. This opportunity is rare, so you must cherish it."

Gu Yun raised his hand hesitantly.

"Second uncle, I'm going to practice martial arts. You know who I am. If I really want to study, I'm afraid my brain will be dizzy..." Gu Yun said.

Gu Zhao nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, I can't study either. I get dizzy when I read." Gu Mingyi glanced at Gu Zhao lightly, and Gu Zhao immediately lowered his head in fear.

"Ayun, you can't stay in the Yamen and be a strongman all your life. Have you ever thought about your future livelihood?" Gu Mingda asked earnestly.

Gu Yun asked in a low voice: "Second uncle, you asked me to become Chen Baotou's disciple, don't you want me to stay in the yamen forever?"

Gu Yun didn't have such a long-term vision. He thought this was the path Gu Mingda had arranged for him. After all, Gu Mingda spent so much effort on entertaining guests and giving gifts. It seemed like he was going for a long time.

Gu Mingda shook his head and said: "Nowadays, when the yamen is short of talents, it will recruit a lot of talented people. What if the yamen is not short of people? When the term of Magistrate Wu is up, the county magistrate will be replaced by someone else, and the new magistrate will also be in the yamen." When new people are installed, you will be the first to be kicked out.”

Gu Yun felt a chill running down his spine and asked, "Second uncle, what do you think I should do?"

"Read more and read more. I don't expect your knowledge to reach the level of the imperial examination. At least you can handle the simplest paperwork in the yamen with ease." Gu Mingda said.

Gu Yun thought about it carefully and found out who was handling the paperwork in the yamen. It was the scribe.

His breathing couldn't help but quicken: "Second uncle, I...can I also be a scribe?"

His stay in the yamen these past few days was not in vain. Being the lowest-level policeman could already bring him a lot of benefits, not to mention the monthly salary he deserved. The merchants would take the initiative to send them some tributes every now and then.

If he could become an official, he would not have to be a lowly official, and he would be more prestigious than the police officers. He would also become a big shot in Qingshui Village.

Gu Mingda nodded lightly and said: "I usually ask you to study more and learn to read more, but you always don't listen. If you were a little more upbeat, you wouldn't be just a strong class now."

Gu Yun wished he could go back in time and slap the self who didn't like reading.

But luckily it was not too late, Gu Yun said: "Second uncle, don't worry, my nephew will definitely change his ways and never let down his expectations."

As if he was not motivated enough, he directly pulled Gu Zhao, who was crying next to him, and said, "Second uncle, I am the eldest brother. I will definitely keep an eye on my younger brothers and sisters in their studies from now on, and never let them be lazy."

Gu Zhao felt his eyes go dark.

In the evening, just as they were about to go to bed, the couple saw that their daughter was still depressed because she had to leave home to study every day.

Zhang Yunniang couldn't bear it and said softly: "Mom also wants Niu Niu to stay with me, but our Niu Niu is very talented in reading, and my parents still hope that Niu Niu will become a talented girl. Talented girls don't grow out of thin air from the ground, and they don't study. no, sorry."

Niu Niu sighed, looked at her parents and said, "Niu Niu likes to study, and Niu Niu also knows that this is a very rare opportunity, but Niu Niu likes to spend time with her family the most. Why can't she study at home like before?"

In Niu Niu's eyes, nothing in this world is more important than her family.

Zhang Yuniang's heart tightened when she heard this, and she took her little daughter into her arms. She even wanted to tell Gu Mingda to forget about it on the spot.

But parents love their children and always want to pave their children's path steadily.

Gu Mingda sighed and said: "Good boy, people in this world have different requirements for men and women. The world expects men to make meritorious deeds, take imperial examinations and become officials. They hope that they will live a vigorous life, and then sigh as a good man."

"But for women, the world thinks that they should be trapped in the inner house, find a husband to marry when they are old, and then manage the house and manage the internal affairs. Their life is limited to the narrow sky in four directions, unable to see the distance of mountains and rivers, unable to feel the vastness of the world ”

When Niuniu heard this, she glanced at Zhang Yunniang with a vague understanding: "But isn't this how my mother and grandma live their lives?"

Gu Mingda nodded and said, "They are indeed like this, but dad doesn't want you to be like this too."
