Gu Fei began to worry about Gu Qing's future exams, but then she felt that she was worrying too much. Gu Qing was not even a scholar now, so she was really worrying too much.

The day of the exam came in a flash. In the evening, some candidates who stayed in the hotel also came back.

Some took sedan chairs, some took carriages. When they got off, their eyes were sunken and they were weak. They were all supported by servants.

There was a scholar in the hotel who asked for a room, but he didn't bring anyone to serve him. He walked to the door of the store alone.

Gu Fei saw him and quickly called Xiaolu and Hepingzi to help him in.

After helping the scholar to the lobby, Gu Fei asked the kitchen to bring a bowl of hot soup. The scholar drank it and his face had some color.

Gu Fei also asked Tie Niu to bring water to the scholar's room.

After all, the weather was still hot. He hadn't taken a bath for three days, so his body was stinky.

The scholar took a bath, ate something, and slept for a long time before waking up.

The next day, he went downstairs and thanked Gu Fei solemnly.

The next day was Mid-Autumn Festival. Gu Fei arranged the store, had lunch and went home to celebrate the festival.

Gu Qing also came back from vacation today. Gu Fei hadn't seen her elder brother for a month or two. Seeing that Gu Qing had studied, he became more and more calm and composed, which was very different from the farmer in the past.

When Gu Qing saw his sister, he couldn't wait to tell her the good news, "I got the first place in Class B in this month's monthly exam."

Gu Fei was really surprised, "First place?"

In a place like Qinglian Academy, what else can I say? There should be no problem in taking the exam for a scholar next year.

She was happy and regretful, "It would have been better if my elder brother had gone to school earlier. This is still delayed."

Gu Qing is 22 years old this year. Since he was a few years old, Gu Zhang taught him to recognize words, and later sent him to school when he was six years old.

That year, Gu Zhang was sick, and the family had no money to let him go to school, so they even sold their sister.

Later, it took several years for the family to recover, and they bought a few acres of land and barely made a living.

Gu Fei brought back not much money for the month, and the family finally saved only more than ten taels of silver.

No one dared to touch this silver, and it was kept for Gu Fei to redeem herself.

Therefore, there was no extra money for Gu Qing to study, and it was delayed until now.

Chen heard it nearby and couldn't help wiping tears, "It's all your father and I who are useless. Dalang was delayed."

Gu Fei saw her mother crying again, and hurriedly said, "It's not a delay, there are still those who are in their forties and fifties who are still taking the exam for scholars."

Lanzhi saw Chen crying and came to interrupt, "Xiao Fei and Big Brother haven't come back for a long time. Our house is half built. Why don't you go and take a look?"

Gu Fei almost forgot about it. The village chief showed her the blueprint before. She made some suggestions and changed a few places and didn't care.

Hearing Lanzhi's words, she immediately became interested and pulled her mother, "Mom, let's go and see the house."

The new house was built on a piece of land not far from here, and everyone walked for more than a quarter of an hour and arrived.

Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, no one is working, only Yinsheng from the village chief's family is here, guarding some bricks and wood, afraid that they will be stolen.

Yinsheng saw that the Gu family had arrived, and hurriedly got up to greet them.

Gu Fei's house is a three-courtyard house. She didn't let the house be built too big. A big house with empty people is not good feng shui.

Next to the left is the house of the eldest aunt, next to the village chief's house and Zhang Lao's house, and on the right is the house of the younger uncle, and next to the younger uncle's house is the eldest uncle's house.

They are lined up in a row, neat and tidy.

But at the moment, the other families have only laid the foundation, only Gu Fei's house has half of the wall built.
