Chapter 850 Scheming Woman
What is the head of the county case? He is a person who can be a scholar as long as nothing happens.
Mrs. Gu was almost going crazy with jealousy, but Mrs. Gu was even worse than she was. She screamed and said angrily every word: "Thief...thief!"
This county case leader should belong to Brother Xian, but it was stolen by Gu Jinan. If Gu Jinan died on the way to escape from the desert, or contracted the disease and was unable to take the county examination, then the person who got the first place in the examination would be her brother Xian.
Mrs. Gu is really a lunatic. I don’t even know where she came up with this idea?
It was his ability that allowed Gu Jinan to pass the county chief's examination. Does Gu Chengxian have this ability? Even if Gu Chengxian took the exam, he wouldn't be able to pass the exam as the county chief based on his knowledge.
But Mrs. Gu doesn't think so. She thinks it was Gu Jinan who stole Gu Chengxian's blessing, and that's why Gu Chengxian got the disease and subsequently lost his title as head of the case.
"Thief!" Mrs. Gu wanted to kill Gu Jinan. If she had known this, she should have thrown Gu Jinan into the mountains to feed the wolves. Now I can only look at Mr. Li helplessly, wanting to ask him to make the decision to erase Gu Jinan's ranking in the county examination.
Gu Xiaomei was indeed Mrs. Gu's favorite daughter. She knew Mrs. Gu's thoughts well. Seeing that Mrs. Gu was struggling to speak, she said on Mrs. Gu's behalf: "Uncle Li, that Gu Jinan hates our family to death. We can't let him pass the exam." Fame. You can think of a way to erase his rank and don't let him be a scholar."
"Shut up, you are Gu Jinan's biological aunt, how can you say such a thing? Where is the kindness of the elders towards the younger ones?" Mr. Li was very angry. He didn't expect that Gu Xiaomei would be so stupid. If her words were heard by outsiders, After that, can he still be an official?
Mr. Li was so angry that he slammed the table: "You can erase the ranking of a county's top criminal at your word? If you do anything against the law, your house will be confiscated and you will be executed."
Moreover, Gu Jinan's essay on agriculture was so brilliant that he contributed two kinds of food to the government to satisfy his hunger. Magistrate Zheng also sent his policy essay to the government office and showed it to the prefect.
Gu Jinan has fallen into the eyes of the prefect. The prefect wants to protect him, so he would be crazy to erase Gu Jinan's ranking.
Gu Xiaomei was so frightened by Mr. Li's scolding that she turned pale and did not dare to speak anymore.
Gu was not convinced. When she saw Gu Xiaomei being scolded, she looked at the stunned Aunt Gu, pushed her, and motioned for her to ask Mr. Li to deal with Gu Jinan.
But Aunt Gu said: "Gu Jin'an has been admitted to the county police chief? Ouch, that wolf cub has become successful, so now I am the county chief criminal's aunt."
He said it quite happily, which made Gu Shi very angry.
Mrs. Zheng sneered: "Auntie, why are you so happy? You are not Gu Jinan's biological aunt."
She is Gu Jinan's biological aunt!
Aunt Gu was just happy that she had become the county's aunt who was the head of the case. When Mrs. Zheng said this, she became very angry and cursed: "What are you talking about? If you dare to say another word, I will tear you apart!"
Mrs. Zheng was unconvinced and wanted to retort, but Mr. Li's cold eyes immediately pierced her, making her tremble. She didn't know why Mr. Li was suddenly angry?
Mrs. Zheng was afraid of death, so in order to calm Master Li, she hurriedly pushed Gu Chengzhi to Master Li: "Brother Zhi, hurry up and say hello to your Grandpa Li."
Gu Chengzhi dragged his fat body, drooling from the corner of his mouth, and said to Mr. Li: "Grandpa Li."
Master Li was very happy when he saw the chubby Gu Chengzhi, and his anger towards Madam Zheng was relieved a lot. He pulled Gu Chengzhi into his arms and said to Madam Zheng: "A woman should help her husband and educate her children. What's so quick to talk?"
Who do you think you are? Dare you scold Jin Zhi!
Gu Youfu's first room also came to the living room, but their room has always had little status and they did not dare to say much in front of Mr. Li. However, they were also very happy when they heard that Gu Jinan passed the county criminal examination.
Thinking that this time they would not only get the Gu Dashan family's livelihood, but also rely on the Gu Dashan family's influence. When Gu Jin'an becomes an official, they will have even more influence.
Gu Youfu was so happy that he wished he could go to Liu Biniang right now and tell her, don't look down on me. I am not someone who lives by fighting the autumn wind. I am the uncle of the county chief, and my nephew will be a high official in the future. .
However, Gu Youfu didn't even want to think about how his family helped the old Gu family plot against Gu Dashan's family when they were fleeing from famine.
And when Mr. Gu learned that Gu Jinan was admitted to the county police chief, he was completely confused... County chief criminal? The son of Gu Dashan, whom he had always hated, was admitted to the county police chief?
Old Mrs. Gu talks to him about the scientific examination every day. Mr. Gu knows what it means to be the county chief of criminal justice. At the moment, he is happy and depressed... One of his grandsons has been admitted to the county police chief, but what makes him depressed is that , but it was not his favorite grandson Gu Chengxian who was admitted to the county chief's office.
After Mr. Li scolded Mr. Zheng, he looked at Mr. Gu and said, "Gu Jinan is your grandson, and he is now promising. You are the grandfather. After learning this good news, you should go to Tianfu County to meet them with gifts." recognize."
When Mr. Gu heard this, he smiled at first. After he came to his senses, he added, "They should be the ones who come to see me. How can a grandfather go to see his grandson?"
Mr. Li sneered: "Your family used to treat his room badly. Now that they are prosperous, don't you go there in person? Do you think they will come to see you? And you, the grandfather, went there in person, and he is there as a son. My grandson, no matter how much I complain in my heart, I won’t dare to deny you.”
The elders go to recognize each other in person. If the younger generation dares not to recognize each other, they will be cast aside and die.
Mr. Gu was originally afraid of Mr. Li and did not dare to say anything after hearing this. He could only nod in agreement, but he felt very aggrieved.
Gu Youfu said hurriedly: "Dad, my son will go with you. My nephew has been admitted to the county police chief. As an uncle, I have to go to congratulate him."
Gu Rong, who had been silent for the whole time, stood up, saluted to everyone present, and said: "Grandpa, Mr. Li, and Sister Rong also want to accompany grandpa to the uncle's house. There are two cousins in the uncle's house, Sister Rong. I can talk to them even after my son is gone.”
Gu Rong knew that Mr. Li didn't like her. It would be difficult for her to rely on the Li family to make a comeback. Now she could only try to curry favor with Gu Dashan's family and rely on his family's connections to live a good life.
He earns a living of one hundred thousand taels a year, and has a cousin who is the county's chief criminal and a future scholar. I heard that this cousin also knows the family members of Jinling.
Gu Rong dreamed of marrying a son-in-law from an aristocratic family. If she could find a son-in-law from a Jiangnan aristocratic family through Gu Jinan, even if she could not become the main wife and could only be a good concubine, she and her descendants would not have to worry about it in this life. .
Gu Rong is a very scheming person, always planning for herself, but she has forgotten that she deceived Gu Jinxiu when she was fleeing the famine, and she almost caused Gu Jinxiu to be kidnapped by Fatty Ding. Gu Jinli still remembers it.
A wise person can hide as far away as possible. Gu Jinli couldn't let her go even if he wanted to die like this.
