Chapter 38
"Wudinghou Mansion is not as good as you see."
"My son knows."
Lin Yunwan said meaningfully: "Although you are the eldest son, it is not easy to be the eldest son. In short, I will try my best to get what you deserve, but your biggest expectation in the future must be yourself. Don't expect the Marquis Mansion to help you get to the top."
Lu Changgong nodded heavily and promised, "My son doesn't want to fight for anything. My son just wants to rely on himself."
"And the Lu family has given enough to their son. With you as his mother, my son, my son, will not ask for anything else."
He lowered his head shyly, worried that he might be trying to please someone by saying too much.
But he obviously said it involuntarily.
Lu Changgong's face tightened in distress, and his lips pursed into a thin line.
Lin Yunwan smiled and said, "It's getting hot, go back quickly."
"yes."
Lu Changgong quickly turned around and left.
Lin Yunwan felt a little more relaxed. Since Longbow was so ambitious, she didn't have to be afraid of throwing a bad weapon at him.
No matter what troubles Ge Baoer and his son want to make in the Lu family in the future, Chang Gong can still take the imperial examination and become an official as long as he studies diligently and rises to prominence.
Pingye came in with tea and said with a smile: "Master Changgong is really filial. When he grows up, he will be your biggest support, madam."
Lin Yunwan smiled faintly.
"Don't expect anything from others."
In her previous life, she had placed too much trust in herself, which was self-defeating.
"let it go."
Lin Yunwan said to herself.
After more than half a month, Mrs. Lu decided to test the results of the two young masters' studies.
She mainly wanted to see Brother Qing, but she couldn't leave the longbow behind, so she wanted to check the homework of the two of them.
"Yun Wan, you and your mother-in-law are watching from the side."
The old lady didn't understand much at all, so she couldn't just look at the surface. Of course, Lin Yunwan had to come over and take charge.
Mrs. Wei felt hot, fanned herself, and said lazily: "Old madam, my daughter-in-law doesn't have to..."
The old lady glared at her.
My own grandson still doesn’t know how to be interested!
She scolded Mrs. Wei: "The child has been in the house for so long and he doesn't know how to care about him."
Mrs. Wei wanted to say, doesn’t she have a good daughter-in-law, Yun Wan?
But the old lady's eyes were so sharp that she didn't dare to talk back.
She still felt a little dissatisfied in her heart. He was not her biological child, so there was nothing to worry about.
If she wanted to tell her, it would be better for her daughter-in-law to give birth to a biological grandson.
After saying a few words, Lu Changgong and Brother Qing came in. The maids were waiting in the next room, spreading pens and ink.
Mrs. Lu said: "Copy a fu and then compose a poem."
Glancing at Lin Yunwan again, I wanted to ask her if this was how she usually taught exam students?
Lin Yunwan nodded. It is already difficult enough for a new student to take such an exam.
But it was not difficult for Lu Changgong.
There are two young masters next door, one is calm and composed, the other is frowning.
Yan's mother said: "You two young masters, it's time to start."
She went to light a stick of incense and reminded the two of them softly: "You have three sticks of incense, which is about half an hour."
Lin Yunwan took a moment and found that it was enough.
Brother Qing made a sad face and asked, "Only three sticks of incense?"
Lu Changgong has already started writing.
Brother Qing did not dare to waste time to say anything, so he quickly picked up the pen to write. His hand shook as soon as he started writing. The first stroke was just an ink dot, and the maid who polished the ink for him was so anxious that she was sweating.
Yan's mother was also frightened.
What did Master Qing learn? After so long, I can no longer hold the pen firmly.
Brother Qing was so sweaty that he almost forgot how Mr. Zhang usually taught him.
You really can't blame him.
Who can take the exam with Lu Changgong! He is simply a monster. No matter what he teaches, he always remembers it in the blink of an eye. How could I compare to him!
Brother Qing glanced at Lu Changgong next door.
"Oops."
Lu Changgong had almost finished copying the first piece of paper.
After three sticks of incense passed, the two finally completed the test.
Yan's mother walked to Mrs. Lu and whispered: "Master Changgong has finished writing a long time ago, and he is still thinking about the words and sentences for the poem. Master Qing can finish it in a hurry."
This result does not sound good.
Mrs. Lu still said: "Bring us what they wrote."
Yan's mother went to get the rice paper for the two of them.
Mrs. Lu's face turned bad after reading it. Needless to say, the neatly written part must have been written by Lu Changgong, and the poem was also decently written.
As for her grandson...
Just barely bearable.
How did you teach this Mr. Zhang! He taught Brother Qing no better than Lu Changgong!
"Yun Wan, look at it."
Lin Yunwan took the papers from the two people, and her longbow function was better than she expected. And Brother Qing's was actually better than she imagined.
She said: "There is nothing to say about the long bow, but Brother Qing is rare."
Mrs. Lu was curious: "Why is it so rare?"
Lin Yunwan said: "If I were to teach him, I wouldn't be able to teach Mr. Zhang as well as he could. He could even copy a complete poem." Although it was a very simple poem.
Mrs. Lu was doubtful, but suddenly she felt blessed, remembering Lin Yunwan's evaluation of Brother Qing - stupid, lazy, cheating and slippery.
The corner of her mouth twitched, feeling that Zhang Fengan must be doing his best.
"Come, come and reward Mr. Zhang."
Lin Yunwan corrected her: "This is Mr. Zhang's duty. If the old lady feels that he has done his best, just give him some hard work, and there is no need to reward him."
Mrs. Lu twitched her lips, these scholars are too particular.
According to Lin Yunwan's words, it was changed to thank Zhang Fengan for his hard work.
Mrs. Wei also took a look at the papers of the two young masters. She praised Long Gong a few words and almost said what Brother Qing Qing said. Fortunately, Yan's mother gave her a wink and she stopped in time.
After leaving Yushou Hall, he said to his maid: "Why does the old lady love this idiot so much? Look at the words he wrote. If the Wuding Hou Mansion relies on him to support itself in the future, it will really be an insult to our ancestors!"
Wei didn't know that she left early and missed a good show.
"Old madam, I've been bothering you for a long time, and Bao'er feels really sorry. I, I still want to go home to be with my deceased parents and fulfill my filial piety."
Ge Baoer wore a veil and put on the clothes he had worn when he first came to Wudinghou Mansion.
The pair of shoes with Ruyi moiré patterns are no longer worn.
Mrs. Lu had a sullen face and asked her, "You just need to live in peace, why are you so annoying?"
Ge Baoer knelt down and said sincerely: "Old madam, Baoer really misses his hometown."
She knelt down by chance, and Lu Zhengliu came back just in time. Hearing that the old lady was testing the academic performance of the two children, she just rushed over and saw this scene.
Lin Yunwan sneered secretly.
Is Ge Baoer really willing to leave Wudinghou Mansion?
