Chapter 289
"Sister-in-law is my Gu family's wife. She went out to represent my Gu family's face. Grandpa agreed to it. It's none of other people's business. If you dare to say that I take care of the family's shortcomings, all the men in my Gu family will die."
The brothers of the Gu family were not happy about it. They knew about this before, but Li Yu was still a girl of the Li family at that time.
I'm not afraid this time, this is my daughter-in-law of the Gu family, it's none of your business, I want you to be talkative.
"I'm afraid that someone will be watching us..."
"If you can go, this is a matter of saving face for the Gu family. Good children are not afraid, the Gu family is not that fragile. If you go out, you will lose your reputation, and your daughter will not be able to marry. No, my Gu family child is not so weak."
"Yes, sister-in-law, you can go. We will support you when it comes to being a female wife."
The Gu family girls all nodded with a smile.
"Then let me try?"
Seeing that his family supported him, Li Yu looked at her husband.
Gu Lei smiled, his smile was warm and beautiful, "Go, Grandpa has already spoken, and I can still say no to let you go, then you are even more busy, and I can't even see you."
"You are worthless, don't always rely on your wife, she is not a child, really..."
Uncle Thirteen didn't look at his nephew, and looked disgusted.
Gu Lei flattened his mouth, with an aggrieved expression on his face.
"Go, but pay attention to your body, don't be too tired, how to arrange."
"Take five classes within ten days. You don't have to go every day. You can go every other day. I originally said that my uncles should go, but His Highness didn't agree. He gave me three places, and I will give three places to the Gu family every year. I really can't bear this quota, this academy is a place that can produce talents, if you have some skills, it would be a pity to miss it."
Although this academy is a commoner academy, it is a place from a poor family. It is very famous and has trained many officials in the dynasty. The academy has always been neutral and does not stand in line.
The head of the mountain and the master are very good at teaching and educating people. This opportunity is rare. This opportunity can change the fate of the children of the Gu family.
"Such a good opportunity, why hesitate, go, don't talk to your man, you're sticky, you want everything, I wish I could tie you around your waist, it's so beautiful when he looks at it all the time."
Grandpa Gu hurt Gu Lei angrily.
Gu Lei blushed when he was told.
"Go, I'll watch them train when I have time. After finishing the river embankment, I will slowly return to normal work and rest. I don't have to go for several days. I will keep an eye on them."
Gu Lei smiled embarrassedly. In fact, he was reluctant to let his wife work too hard, so he was willing to guard her every day.
"Okay, about the quota, grandpa, you can discuss it."
"Let's discuss it, we can't break the rules, first give those who have fame, Leizi, and make it clear to everyone at the clan meeting in two days. From now on, there will be three quotas each year. If they have fame, they can also encourage them to study hard. It's a good thing to have one more way out, your daughter-in-law can make a great contribution."
"OK."
"According to the family rules, rewards are based on merit. First give to the families of heroes and family members who have made contributions. They can only be given to others if they are not in their turn. Don't chill people's hearts."
"Okay, this way, few people will grab it, I know it well."
Gu Lei thought through the famous people in the Gu family, and there were not many people in total.
Some of the Gu family are well-known, and there is no shortage of such fame as Jinshi and scholar, but now they really have nothing to do, so they just teach at home.
"Follow the one with the highest fame first, so that the court will have a chance to push it up later, and it will be clearer if the name is right and the future is right."
"OK."
Everyone had a very happy meal, and there were many happy events, and the Gu family was going to recover.
Grandpa Gu drank two glasses of wine today, and promised his granddaughter-in-law that he would do it. He wanted to live and see the Gu family stand up again with his own eyes, so that he could explain to his ancestors.
At night, Gu Lei held Li Yu's hand, and was a little tipsy after drinking, so he insisted on visiting the garden. It was getting dark, and Lin Shu held a lantern and walked in front to accompany him in the garden.
Gu Lei is very happy today, not because of his own promotion, but because the Gu family has a new atmosphere, Uncle Erlang has stars and hope in his eyes again, and he can stand up straight again.
Li Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Idiot, I will always be with you."
"I'm sorry, I treated you badly and made you work so hard..."
Gu Lei held her hand, with red eyes, he failed to make his daughter-in-law happy, but made her suffer, did not make her beautiful, and made her suffer a lot of grievances.
"Fool, I'm a person who can't be idle. I'm happy to do this. It's better than chatting with a group of women in the backyard. I have a stronger personality and I'm not suitable for entering the palace. Instead, I can be a housekeeper."
"With you in charge of me, I can feel at ease, daughter-in-law, you believe me, I will definitely earn you a phoenix coronet and come back."
Gu Lei made sure with all his strength, his eyes were bright and burning.
In front of Li Yu, he will always be like a big boy, trying desperately to prove to her that I can do it.
"Okay, I believe you, I am waiting for that day, I will have a good time."
Li Yu smiled happily with her chin tilted.
"You are so stupid, what should you do if you are being bullied by your sincerity?"
"I'm so powerful, who dares to bully me, I'm a female bandit..."
The couple embraced and went back to the house, chatting and laughing, leaving behind a series of laughter.
Lin Shu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling happier in his heart. Since the eldest and young master got married, the descendants have become more cheerful and love to laugh, as if returning to the youthful appearance in the capital, warm and moist as jade, cheerful and clear.
I don’t need to go to training today, I can rest for two days. People are not steel, so they need to adjust and rest.
Li Yu got up and sat in front of the vanity mirror to comb her hair, while Gu Lei focused on brushing her eyebrows.
"Well, the first time I was born and the second time I was familiar, my paintings are getting better and better."
Gu Lei shook his head happily while holding Luo Zidai.
"Okay, you go out quickly."
"Okay, you are also taking a day off at home, tired for a long time."
"I'm going to take my grandpa out shopping today. I haven't gone for a long time. I want to play."
"Okay, bring the silver, just buy whatever you like."
Gu Lei nodded and went out after breakfast.
Li Yu changed into a neat and elegant Hu suit and came to the main hall.
"Grandpa, I will take two days off and take you out to play."
"Take me there, you go."
Grandpa Gu smiled and shook his head.
"I made an appointment with the antique shop, and someone told me that there are good things waiting for me to take a look. It's a pity if you don't go. It's so boring to stay at home all the time. Go out for a walk, and my grandpa will go too."
"Is your grandpa going too, don't lie to me."
"Really, let's go play."
Li Yu's task today is to take the two old men out to play, to make the old people happy for a while, they can't just be busy with housework, the old men also need to be coaxed.
People don’t talk about old children, old children, old people depend on their children and grandchildren just like children when they are old, and they just want to go out to play when they are free, so they just take them for a walk.
"Okay, then I'll take a look with you."
"Right, give me the palm of your hand, don't buy the wrong one and waste money."
Li Yu coaxed his grandfather, and finally persuaded him to go out. He specially picked out new clothes for the old man to change into, and went out to play in good spirits.
