Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ten days later, Gu Chengsi was appointed as the county magistrate of Ping Yang Manor. Coincidentally, he was appointed to replace Chen Peng’s original position.

It made one sigh, “What an ill-fated fate.”

At night, he looked for Gu Chengrui. “Brother Chengrui, are you coming back with us? We’re going back soon, as I’ll need to be in Ping Yang in half a month.”

“I didn’t expect the appointment to come so soon. You guys pack up, and we’ll leave tomorrow. It’ll be much faster to go back by boat this time.” Gu Chengrui stood up and said.

“Alright, then I’ll go back and pack.”

After Gu Chengsi left, Gu Chengrui went straight to the academy to fetch Gu Chenglin back so that he could make some preparations.

The following day, the group of people rushed to the dock.

After they left, Zhou Ying heaved a sigh of relief. Since she had nothing to do, she personally made some snacks and then rushed to the Zhou residence with Shizhu.

When he went in, he saw Mingyu scolding someone angrily. She stood at the side and waited for her to finish scolding before going forward. “Who provoked you? Why are you so angry?”

“Wow, Sister Zhou, what delicious food did you bring me?” Mingyu saw the basket in her hand and immediately walked up to her.

Sitting in the first carriage, Gu Chengen and his brother had no choice but to get out of the carriage and give each of them some candy.

Gu Chengen’s son saw them and immediately shouted, “Dad, Second Uncle, you’re finally back! I missed you so much!”

“Our village’s scholar has returned to the village,” the others immediately shouted.

After shouting, they immediately dispersed, but they did not stop along the way.

Because they all remembered that as long as the scholar returned to the village, they would be able to feast.

With their shouts, the entire village soon knew of their return.

The people at home immediately ran out. When they saw Gu Chengsi, they congratulated him and lined the streets to welcome him. It was a lively scene.

Mrs. Liu looked at the crazy people outside and said sourly, “It’s just a scholar title. Is it necessary?”

Gu Chengye immediately warned her sternly, “Mother, you can only say this in front of me. Don’t ever say it outside. Otherwise, if you anger the clan leader, he won’t let you off easily.”

“Besides, being a scholar is indeed worth showing off.

“Don’t forget that your son hasn’t even passed the imperial examination.. Aren’t you looking down on me?”
