Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

After Gu Jingyun pulled Li Baolu out of the half street, he put away the regret and pain on his face. He tapped Li Baolu's forehead and asked with a smile, "How do you feel about the fight?"

"My heart beat faster, my face was flushed, and there was an anger in my heart that I wanted to find an outlet to vent."

"Control it," Gu Jingyun said with a slight smile on his face, "Our current identities cannot do anything too outrageous."

Li Baolu was a little depressed, "The outsiders seem to look down on women, and they even get discriminated against when they enter a bookstore."

Gu Jingyun didn't expect this, he could only comfort him: "I value you and respect you."

Li Baolu couldn't help laughing when she heard the words, she took his hand and said, "You said that, you can't imitate these ordinary people."

Gu Jingyun also nodded happily.

"However, our understanding seems to be different from that of the world. I will talk to someone when I go back at night, so as not to be surrounded by people next time."

Li Baolu nodded, she also noticed that there were a lot of people staring at them with strange eyes today.

Because of the quarrel, the two of them were not in a good mood, so they just walked back for half a street.

There were many more people eating and drinking in the inn. Obviously, it was getting dark, and the scholars had to relax.

Li Baolu took the mansion newspaper bought by Gu Jingyun and asked Xiaoer to bring her dinner to the room, and Gu Jingyun stayed alone.

Half a day's experience made the young couple understand that Li Baolu's stay here is not conducive to Gu Jingyun's routine.

As soon as Li Baolu left, Gu Jingyun's gaze swept across the lobby, and he found an empty table to sit down, let Xiao Er serve the food, and turned to look at the poems inscribed on the wall next to him.

As expected of an inn dedicated to entertaining examinees, pens and inks are placed on the long table next to it, and scholars can take whatever they want to inscribe on the wall.

Looking at those high-spirited poems, Gu Jingyun slightly raised his eyebrows, feeling a little better, the scholar beside him rolled his eyes, handed him the pen in his hand, and said with a smile: "Brother, how about a poem?"

Gu Jingyun shook his head and said with a faint smile, "If you have nothing to gain, why dare you show your shame." He raised his eyes to look at the calligraphy inscribed by the scholar, and said with a smile: "The poem is not bad, but the calligraphy is not bad. The muscles and bones are thick. After a long period of practice, after polishing, you can say It may not be published as a post."

The scholar's heart skipped a beat. What he is most proud of is his good handwriting. His husband also said that as long as he can persist in practicing handwriting without losing the strength of his handwriting, he will be able to publish posts in twenty years, and thirty years later. Maybe we can become a small family in a few years.

We must know that good handwriting is very important in the cultural world, and some people can stand alone in the literary world with only one handwriting.

He was amazed by Gu Jingyun's vicious gaze, but also happy with his flattery, so he took the initiative to sit beside him and said, "I'm Zhao Ning in Huizhou, this time I'm here to take part in the government examination, brother, seeing that he can enter the government at such a young age." Examination, we can see his ability, but where is his origin?"

Gu Jingyun was really young, he looked only about thirteen years old, while most of the scholars in the inn were in their twenties, and those in their thirties who came to take the government examination were considered young.

There is no way, the overall education in Guangdong is not high. From the perspective of the Central Plains and Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan and Guizhou are all remote and barbaric places.

Most of the juvenile geniuses appear in the Central Plains, Shandong and Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Among them, Shandong is the hometown of Confucius, so there are more such people. But in Guangdong, once in a while, one will be watched by the people of Guangdong. When Gu Jingyun moved in, someone murmured. I have never heard of him, when did such a young candidate appear in Guangdong?

He was able to pass the county test!

In addition, Gu Jingyun was able to bring a girl to rush for the exam and live in a house, which inevitably made people suspicious, thinking that he had bribed the county magistrate to pass the county exam.

However, no one dares to say anything about cheating in the imperial examination. If there is evidence, it is fine. If there is no evidence, I am afraid that the candidates of the same class will be involved for nothing, and they will be hated to death.

So everyone took their doubts to heart, and when they heard someone approaching Gu Jingyun, they all pricked up their ears.

Gu Jingyun smiled and said, "I'm Gu Jingyun, from Qiongzhou. Gu has just arrived here and is young. If there is anything wrong, please forgive me."

Seeing that he was polite, Zhao Ning smiled even wider, "Qiongzhou? I've never been there, so I don't know what's delicious and interesting there..."

The two of them talked about customs in terms of eating and drinking, then from customs to poetry and songs, and finally jumped to the subset... The more they talked, the more they agreed.

Zhao Ning was amazed by Gu Jingyun's knowledge, no matter what topic he asked, Gu Jingyun could pick it up, and obviously understood it better than him.

The people nearby were already attracted by the topic of the two, and they joined in one after another. After a while, Gu Jingyun was surrounded by people. I don’t know who started it. Everyone began to talk about the problems they didn’t understand when they were studying, and then Several people got together to discuss.

Gu Jingyun listened for a while and picked up some answers. Now not only Zhao Ning, but the others also came to their senses, startled by his ability.

People in the world say that literati are inferior to each other, but that is only a small number of people. As long as more people let him see the ability of the other party, he is still very convinced.

At this time, the scholars in the inn were like this, and most people's impression of Gu Jingyun began to improve. There was an upright scholar who hesitated for a while, and pulled Gu Jingyun's sleeve to persuade him in a low voice: "Gu Xuedi, you shouldn't If you bring a girl to the exam, you can just buy a bookboy."

As soon as these words came out, the surroundings suddenly fell silent.

Gu Jingyun raised his eyebrows, and said to himself, he had been socializing for a long time, and someone finally brought it up, and if no one mentioned it, he would take the initiative to bring it up. .

Gu Jingyun asked with a look of astonishment: "Why did you say that, brother? Bao, my wife is not a girl, she is Gu's wife, so don't the inns allow female relatives to stay?"

His face was reddish, he lowered his head and said, "It's our first time traveling far, so we don't know this."

The people around were completely stunned, and they stared at Gu Jingyun in astonishment.

Zhao Ning asked hesitantly: "Brother Gu, how dare I ask you this year's Guigeng?"

Gu Jingyun rolled his eyes in his heart, and continued to say shyly: "13 years old, 14 years old."

Zhao Ning smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother Gu got married so early, is it the custom in Qiongzhou?"

Gu Jingyun shook his head, "No, it's because Gu's health is not good, and my family can't accompany me to the exam, so they married me a wife early, so that they can take care of my daily life and accompany me. It's just that Qiongzhou is a small place and has little contact with the outside world. This time when we come out, people always look at us strangely, is it because there are few people outside who can achieve grades at such an age?"

Everyone was embarrassed because they were also one of the people with strange eyes.

Knowing that they are not masters and servants, but husband and wife, everyone's eyes became normal in an instant, and they all said: "There are also many people who get married at the age of twelve or thirteen, but most of them are fishermen and farmers, and the people in the city probably don't." How did you see it?"

Zhao Ning coughed lightly, and said, "Everyone didn't expect Gu Xuedi to get married so early. They all thought that younger brother and sister were maids. Everyone is used to taking Shutong with them when they go out, so when they first saw you with a maid, they couldn't help but look sideways."

Gu Jingyun felt that this was not the only reason, but there were so many people at this time that it was hard to get into it, so he nodded and smiled.

Everyone not only answered the long backlog of homework, but also satisfied their curiosity, and left satisfied.

Gu Jingyun pulled Zhao Ning and said, "Brother Zhao, Gu still has some questions to ask, why don't you follow me upstairs, and we can have some supper and talk?"

Only then did Zhao Ning realize that Gu Jingyun didn't even eat dinner, and the food on the table was already cold, he felt a little guilty, if he hadn't pulled people to talk, it wouldn't have happened, so he nodded and said: "Okay."

Gu Jingyun and Zhao Ning went upstairs together. Li Baolu had already cooked the porridge and left it aside. She glanced at the stairs just now and saw that they were busy talking, and the food on the table did not move. , the meal that has been sprayed with saliva will definitely not move again.

Li Baolu didn't get up when she heard the door knock, and asked directly through the screen: "Do you want to ask the waiter to bring some more vegetables? I just made you a pickled vegetable."

"Come out and meet Brother Zhao." Gu Jingyun gave Zhao Ning an embarrassed smile, and called Li Baolu out to greet Zhao Ning.

Li Baolu came out, gave Zhao Ning a blessing generously, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhao, please sit down. I'll ask the waiter to bring some wine and food."

Zhao Ning bowed his head back halfway, and said awkwardly: "Your brother and sister are polite."

He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until after Li Baolu went out. Gu Jingyun looked at him in surprise, "Brother Zhao, why do you all seem to be afraid of your wife?"

Zhao Ning coughed lightly, and said uncomfortably: "After all, men and women are not intimate, so how can we get along more?"

Gu Jingyun taught the children in the village to read since he was a child, and men and women were mixed together. In the village, from the age of eighty to the age of three, both men and women met him respectfully. He really didn't think there was any difference between men and women.

He realized that the outside world was very different from what his uncle had said, so he thought for a moment before saying: "Although that's the case, as long as you communicate with others, you only need to observe etiquette. Could it be that you don't talk or communicate because of the difference between men and women?"

"It's not like that, but you should pay more attention." Seeing that he was ignorant, Zhao Ning laughed and said, "This makes Xuedi Gu look like a thirteen-year-old boy. It seems that you have read all the books before." Confused, no wonder he was holding his wife's hand when entering and leaving the inn, he probably didn't know how terrifying this move was.

It is also because he is young, if he is older, he is afraid that he will be scolded in person.

Gu Jingyun said with a blank face: "But I have never had such troubles in Qiongzhou. My wife and I have been classmates since we were young. Although the husband taught us the difference between men and women, he has never been so strict. Even, even Should normal communication be restricted?"

Zhao Ning was taken aback, and asked in amazement, "Your siblings have even gone to school?"

"Don't the girls in Huizhou go to school?" Gu Jingyun said: "It's fine for ordinary people, with limited family resources, don't those rich families not go to school?"

"Uh," Zhao Ning choked, and said after a while: "Women study can hinder virtue, so most people in the world don't teach women to read, and now there are very few women who study. Not only in Huizhou, but also in the whole Great Chu, Qiongzhou Located on a cape and separated by a piece of sea, these remarks may not have been passed on.”

Now Gu Jingyun was dumbfounded, "But isn't there a girls' school in Beijing?"

Uncle and aunt had discussed before that if they return to the capital to study, it would be best for Baolu to also enter a women's school, not only to make more friends, but also to gain some knowledge.

"Girls' school has been abolished a long time ago. Even if there are still girls who can read and write, they are mostly taught by their father and brother at home. There are very few who come out to study." Zhao Ning shook his head and said with a smile: "The news of Gu Xuedi is far behind..."
