Chapter 227 Good Master
Gu Yan is enrolled in school and Gu Zhao is studying medicine. Niu Niu is the only child in the family, which makes them seem particularly deserted.
After Niu Niu finished her daily homework, she either went to play with the crazy girl or was picked up by Sun Jiaxing and his wife, but she had no time at all.
Within two days, the whole house was busy.
The examination was mostly held in the spring, so it was also called "Spring Festival". With many candidates entering the capital, the capital became lively.
Shopkeeper Luo's new restaurant was opened in a hurry before the people entered the capital.
This time, he did not open a store in the most prosperous place like he did in Guang'an County. Instead, he bought a quiet large house and transformed it into several elegant rooms.
Gu Mingda and Sun Jiaxing both saw that shopkeeper Luo was determined to take a high-end route in his business in the capital.
Shopkeeper Luo also greeted Gu Mingda and Sun Jiaxing in advance, asked them to help attract business, and simply gave each of them five tables as gifts.
Sun Jiaxing found a reason to invite his colleagues from the Hanlin Academy to come twice. It was easy to build relationships over banquets, and shopkeeper Luo was a very trouble-making person. The waiters he trained were all better at making trouble than elsewhere.
What's more, the entire banquet was maintained at a very high level, so naturally the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
Sun Jiaxing has tightened the relationship with his colleagues, and Shopkeeper Luo's business has also opened up in the Hanlin Academy in the shortest time. It is a win-win situation.
Gu Mingda did not participate in Sun Jiaxing's banquet. At this time, under the gaze of the whole family, he drank the Zhuangyuan soup that his wife had cooked early.
Although Niu Niu was always yawning, she suppressed her sleepiness and patted her father on the shoulder: "Dad, Niu Niu is waiting for you to come home."
Despite repeated instructions from her parents, the little girl did not say anything with the nature of a wish.
Gu Mingda gently patted his daughter's soft hair and said, "You must obey your elders at home and don't do dangerous things, you know?"
Niu Niu nodded vigorously, patted her heart and reassured her again and again: "Dad, don't worry, Niu Niu is the most obedient."
Gu Mingda was accompanied by Chang Sui out of the house with a relieved look on his face.
He didn't know that after he went out, Niu Niu lay back on the bed and murmured softly: "I hope my dad will be safe during this exam."
After saying this, the little girl tilted her head and fell into coma.
Because I went out too early, the sky above me was pitch black, except for the occasional starlight.
The time when Chunwei started to check and enter the examination room was Yinshi (three o'clock in the morning), so Gu Mingda slept for a long time during the day before and got up at the beginning of Choushi (one o'clock in the morning).
Now Chang Sui was walking in front of him, holding a lantern and walking forward. He looked back at Gu Mingda from time to time and kept saying: "Master, the test basket is too heavy. How can I let you carry it? You are a scholar and you are so delicate." ”
The long follower Qi Dashan wanted to reach out and take the test basket, but Gu Mingda had no intention of handing it to him. Instead, he said: "Just pay attention to the road and leave me alone."
Qi Dashan nodded helplessly. The three of them were sold to the Gu family by Yazi, and they seemed to have fallen into a lucky nest. Although the family had a large population, they were not troublemakers. His daughter, who was originally thin and short, has now become Debai Baipangpang is really a nice family, so he does his best in everything he does, just hoping that his master's family can reach a higher level.
Qi Dashan was thinking in confusion that walking would inevitably wake him up. He turned a corner from the door of his house, but only a few hundred meters away, his whole body suddenly fell forward uncontrollably.
Gu Mingda had been carefully paying attention to the surrounding situation, and naturally noticed Qi Dashan's abnormality immediately. He stretched out his hand to catch the person, but in the end it was still a step too late.
Qi Dashan hit the ground hard, and there was a muffled sound on his knees. Gu Mingda felt pain when he heard the sound.
"Master, I'm fine." Qi Dashan immediately comforted Gu Mingda. He looked at the lamp he was holding and saw that the lamp oil was not spilled, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Gu Mingda hurriedly stepped forward to help the person up from the ground.
"Let's see how your leg feels after knocking it off."
But Qi Dashan waved his hand and said: "There should be no bleeding. At most, it will be black and blue. It's no big deal. Master, I will send you to the Tribute Academy first. I can't delay your exam. It doesn't matter to me."
"Remember to go to the medical clinic later." Gu Mingda said.
Qi Dashan nodded casually and looked at the culprit who tripped him on the ground: "It seems like a stone is blocked by grass. I'll pay attention to it later."
It's just that their journey has not been smooth, and many things cannot be avoided by paying attention.
Qi Dashan was walking and reached a two-story building when he suddenly heard Gu Mingda behind him: "Be careful!"
With a "bang" sound, Qi Dashan was pulled back a step by Gu Mingda.
Gu Mingda pulled away this time, but he still didn't expect that the clothes drying rod hanging on the second floor would suddenly be blown down by the wind.
Qi Dashan looked at the clothes drying pole that hit the ground heavily and rolled several times before coming to a stop. His face was full of surprise and uncertainty.
"What's going on with this guy? The clothes drying pole isn't **** yet. What if it hits someone?" Qi Dashan couldn't help but cursed. He rolled up his sleeves and wanted to go upstairs to argue with them.
Gu Mingda felt that if he came a few more times, his long-term attendant might even be dead. He took out a silver ingot and handed it to Qi Dashan: "Take the money and go to the hospital to have a look at your leg first. There is no need to send me to Gongyuan." Okay, if you want to argue, you can go up and argue, I’ll leave first.”
Qi Dashan accepted the silver ingot and thanked him profusely, but he refused to leave and had no intention of going up to the second floor to argue with others. Instead, he said: "Master, my wife and the old lady have given orders. Be sure to I've agreed to send you to the Gongyuan examination room, so how can I just let it go?"
Gu Mingda had nothing to do with him.
Qi Dashan continued to walk in front, but because of his injured knee, he seemed a little awkward when walking.
There were gradually more and more people on the streets near Gongyuan.
Qi Dashan was already frightened, because he had just bumped into someone again, his shoulder was so painful, and he couldn't even lift his right arm.
The move he hit was nothing serious.
"Master, am I unlucky today? I'm holding you back." Qi Dashan looked guilty, fearing that he would affect Gu Mingda's luck in the exam.
"This is none of your business, don't blame yourself." Gu Mingda felt even more guilty than him.
But he had been urging Qi Dashan to leave all the way, but this man was extremely stubborn and had to send him to the gate of Gongyuan before he could rest assured.
After careful calculation, the distance was only one mile. It was a thrilling feeling to walk out. Qi Dashan was bumped on the shoulder, knocked on his knee, and half of his clothes were stained with dirty water splashed by someone unknown.
When Gu Mingda was lining up outside the Gongyuan Gate, he gave Qi Dashan another silver ingot.
"Go buy a new cotton-padded coat and change it quickly to avoid the cold." Gu Mingda wished he could give him more money, but he also knew that if he went too far, Qi Dashan would think too much and secretly thought that he would give him more money in the future. Just give them a monthly allowance for their family of three.
Qi Dashan received two silver rewards in the morning, and he was so happy that he wanted to talk to the sky.
He was in bad luck, but the master didn't dislike him and even gave him money to buy clothes to heal his injuries. What kind of fairy master is this! I really wish I could serve the master all my life!
