Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 88
I just refused to accept apprentices, and now this request is not too much, if I refuse again, it will be unreasonable.Guan Lehe had no choice but to agree.

"What about him? When does he go to school?" Qi Muyuan pointed at Du Jinning and asked.

Du Jinning and Guan Lehe were slightly startled.

Du Jinning's mind was spinning quickly, and before Guan Lehe could say anything, she said, "I won't go to school until the next year, and I'm in class D, because I haven't been to school before."

"..." Qi Muyuan, who had been expressionless all this time, frowned at this moment, showing a very troubled expression.

But he didn't say anything in the end, turned around and said to Qi Bokun, "Let's go."

After sending the two out, Du Jinning was also saying goodbye, Guan Lehe waved to her: "Come on, sit down first, I have something to ask you."

Du Jinning had no choice but to go back to the house with him.

"Tell me about your family affairs in detail," Guan Le said softly.

The day before yesterday Zhang Hongwen participated in the whole process of the separation of the Du family's second household. He was so angry. He never thought that the Du family could be so despicable. He wished his father could drive Du Chensheng's family out of Taohua Village.

When I went to the academy yesterday and gave Guan Jiaze the script, he couldn't help but tell him about the division of the Du family.

Although Guan Jiaze's family is a bit complicated, his father took a concubine to be an official in Beijing, and left his original wife, his mother, to serve his parents in his hometown.But with the shelter of his mother and the care of his grandparents, he has not been exposed to the dark side much.

Hearing Zhang Hongwen's words, he was completely shocked at that time.He didn't expect such dirty and shameless things to happen in this world.

When eating at night, he immediately mentioned it to his uncle.

That's how Guan Lehe asked Zhang Hongwen to call Du Jinning over.

Du Jinning didn't hide anything, and told the family affairs from beginning to end.

"Then what do you plan to do in the future?" Guan Lehe asked.

"I want to take advantage of this time to find a job for my mother and sisters, and I will also write more Chinese books. If no one buys the books, I will copy books for others. The whole family works hard and can always make ends meet. If my husband allows me, I may owe some of Shu Xiu after the new year, and I will pay it back when I earn enough money." Du Jinning honestly said his plan.

"Spending so much time to make money, what about your studies?" Guan Lehe asked with a frown.

The other students are all focused on studying, no matter how poor the family is, they don't need to worry about their family members.After all, after spending so much money for his education, he must devote himself wholeheartedly to achieve a good result.

But no matter how you listen to Du Jinning's plan, he spends most of his time on making money, and his studies are amateurish.

Du Jinning didn't plan to take the imperial examination, so his thoughts were naturally different from Guan Lehe's.She said confidently: "I think I should be able to keep up with everyone."

"..." Guan Lehe was speechless.

With Du Jinning's qualifications, what can't he keep up with?Those kids didn't learn enough in one semester to get what he learned in a month.But he took Du Jinning as his apprentice, did he let him fish in troubled waters like this?
"Have you read the book I gave you?" He asked with a straight face.

Du Jinning shook his head: "No, there are too many things at home these days, so I don't have time to read."

Guan Lehe also knows this.Such a big event happened, if Du Jinning can still read the book, regardless of the life and death of his mother and sisters at home, then he has to consider whether to accept this disciple.

"From tomorrow onwards, you can come to the academy to study with me. You don't need to go with those students, just stay here and read. After the new year, I hope you can directly enter Class B." He squeezed his beard and said .

Du Jinning was dumbfounded.

"This... This is really not good." Du Jinning became impatient and stammered, "I have to settle the house first. There is no rice in the house, and I have to make up for such a big deficit. My mother and I Elder sister went to the mountain to carry logs for others yesterday, that job is too much for a big man, how can I sit and study with peace of mind?"

Guan Lehe didn't speak, got up and went into the room, and came out after a while, holding a purse in his hand.

He handed the purse to Du Jinning: "You take this money, and it won't be too late to pay me back after you are admitted to the Juren Jinshi."

Without opening it, Du Jinning knew that it contained silver, and it was quite a lot.

She pushed the purse back as if it was hot, and shook her head like a rattle: "I can't take this money."

Seeing that Guan Lehe was about to speak, she hurriedly said again: "Sir, listen to me. I'm not a rigid person, otherwise I wouldn't be separated from the Du family with your help. But I have my own principles. I will try my best to live a good life. I don’t want to rely on the help of others, but I don’t work hard to enjoy the benefits. Living with this money, not only me, but also my mother and my sisters will not feel at ease.”

She raised her clear and bright eyes to look at Guan Lehe: "Give me some time, I will try my best. If it doesn't work, I will ask Mr. for help after school starts after the new year."

Hearing this, Guan Lehe felt a little disappointed, but was more relieved.

As a disciple, I did not make a mistake, he is a principled and ambitious person.

"Okay then, if you need help, you must speak to the husband. Otherwise, the husband will be angry." He pretended to be angry and said with a straight face.

"Yes, disciple remembered."

After saying this, Du Jinning thought that the conversation was almost over.Guan Lehe waved his hand, and he could say goodbye and leave.

But Guan Lehe looked at her, but he didn't know where to go in his mind. He frowned, his pupils drifted away, and he didn't move for a long time without speaking.

She had no choice but to stand there and stare at Guan Lehe.

After a while, Guan Lehe came back to his senses, and said to her with a little frustration: "I can't think of any good business that is easy and profitable."

Du Jinning almost laughed.

She didn't expect Guan Lehe to think about this for her just now, the new gentleman is so cute and swollen?
"Actually, this disciple is very good at plants, such as how to plant rice, how to cultivate fruit trees, how to plant flowers and plants, and even how to build gardens, etc. He has certain experience. Probably this disciple is born with this talent, so after the disciple's The hand-planted things are very good." Du Jinning said very confidently, "If the master knows that someone's precious trees and flowers are suffering from diseases and insect pests, you can ask them to come to your disciples."

"Uh." Hearing this, Guan Lehe always felt that something was wrong.

Why does his newly recruited disciple have a faint tendency to approach the old farmer?And, isn't this tone a bit loud?He is only ten years old, right?Living in that small village again, how many precious flowers and plants have you seen?
He didn't take it seriously, nodded and said perfunctorily: "Okay." He also told her to spend some time at home to read and come back five days later to let him take the school exam, and then served tea to see off the guests.

Du Jinning came out of Huazhangju, walked through the academy, and out the gate, and saw a slightly thin figure standing at the gate of the academy.

Who could this expressionless boy be if not Qi Muyuan?
