Looking at the word "people's livelihood" on the paper, Erbao's facial features almost wrinkled together, "Mom, do we have to learn it? Do we all learn it? Isn't it good just like this!"

Gu Xiaoxiao looked at Erbao and said, "Erbao, what do you want to do when you grow up? What kind of person do you want to be?"

Erbao was stunned for a moment, "Uh... I never thought about it, that's too far."

"Then start thinking now, think carefully, what kind of life do you want yourself to have?"

"..." The time went silent, Erbao frowned and thought carefully.

What kind of person does he want to be? First of all, he has no worries about food and clothing, and now he has achieved that. Then he has many friends, eats meat with them, can also practice boxing with his brothers and fight bad guys. The most important thing is freedom, and

Now, just as careless as playing, you can also ride a horse to the ends of the earth and practice martial arts to the best in the world!

So... who does he want to be? Open a martial arts gym? Be a martial artist? Or... a general? Yes! He wants to be a general, heroic, able to run freely on a horse, and fight bad guys with his friends. This

This is the passionate life he dreams of most!

"Mom! I want to be a general!" His eyes were full of enthusiasm, as if he was about to put on armor and go to war.

Gu Xiaoxiao smiled lightly, as expected, and then said: "Being a general also requires literacy. Otherwise, if you can't read maps and military reports, how will you arrange tactics? How will you lead troops to fight? If you

If you want to do something, you have to work hard towards that goal!”

Hearing this, Erbao had a bitter look on his face again, "It's so troublesome to be a general~"

Gu Xiaoxiao added: "It's not the general that's troublesome, it's the same with any position in the world. If you're illiterate and don't know how to write, you can only farm here with the villagers. Are you willing?"

Erbao immediately shook his head.

Farming? Then he won't be able to ride a horse to the end of the world and live in a small place. With his character, he may not even be able to eat meat. No, no, no, he will never do this!

"Mom! I study! I work hard! I don't want to farm, I want to be a general!"

The corners of Gu Xiaoxiao's mouth curled up again, and she smiled with satisfaction.

This time, she will never let Zhou Zeyun go to the battlefield to fight for fame, nor will Zhou Zeyun pass his position to the second treasure after his death. Therefore, if the second treasure wants to be a general, he must rely on his own ability, otherwise he will

But he ended up with the same fate as in the original book.

Zhou Zeyun looked at Gu Xiaoxiao from the side, admiring it very much in his heart, and the throbbing in his heart became even more intense.

Sanbao doesn't have any unnecessary emotions, he will do whatever his mother says anyway.

The same goes for Si Bao, but he still hesitated and pouted, "Mom, we...can't write."

Erbao also realized at this time that he had to ask them to write their opinions, but he couldn’t write!

"Yes, mother, among us, except for the eldest brother who learned Braille from dad, the three of us don't know how to read."

Sanbao thought for a while but still didn't speak. In fact, he knew a few words. When his elder brother was learning from his father, he secretly watched him a few times, but he only knew a few words.

Gu Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, what should I do?

"How about... I ghostwrite for them?" Zhou Zeyun said aloud from the side.

Gu Xiaoxiao's eyes suddenly lit up, "That's right! They tell you what they want to write, and you write it for them. This is a good method!"

Dabao said at this time: "Dad, you taught me, I can write it myself."

"Can you do that? You haven't learned much..." Zhou Zeyun said worriedly.

"It's okay, I can do it!" He was firm.

Seeing this, Zhou Zeyun said nothing more.

Gu Xiaoxiao was also a little surprised by Dabao's performance. He seemed to attach great importance to it. He was indeed the future Minister of Dali Temple, so courageous!

It was settled that Dabao would write it himself, and Zhou Zeyun would ghostwrite the other three. Three days later, they would be handed over to Gu Xiaoxiao, who would take them to Xu Jiaoxiao to study.

In the next three days, except when eating, Gu Xiaoxiao would watch Dabao writing carefully on the table with a pen and paper in hand, and he was particularly immersed in it.

Gu Xiaoxiao did not bother him. She knew that this child was ambitious and wanted more, and she was more willing to fight for it. As his mother, she would support him as long as he took the right path.

And because Zhou Zeyun was a ghostwriter for the children, Gu Xiaoxiao also saw his writing clearly. The small block letters that he drew each stroke came into view. The writing was strong and square, and it also had characteristics that were unique to Zhou Zeyun. It can be seen that

The person who writes has a great spirit, and at the same time he has a certain degree of control. He expresses the children's ideas on the paper in a quick and easy way.

Gu Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "Zhou Zeyun, please also write down your views."

He was slightly startled, turned to look at Gu Xiaoxiao, with turbulent emotions hidden in his eyes, and asked softly: "Is it okay... too?"

"Why not? If you study hard now, you can take the imperial examination right away. It will be much faster than these brats. Won't investing in you return you faster!" She raised her eyebrows and teased.

Zhou Zeyun blushed, but still hesitated, "But I'm not sure...and I can't let you earn money to support the family by yourself. I'd better find a job and learn this...leave it to the children."

After he finished speaking, he pursed his lips slightly. He had thought about taking the imperial examination before, but his parents disagreed, saying that it would be a waste of money, and it was better for him to go out to work. Now that he is in good health, if he can't bear the responsibility

It’s really inappropriate for men to point their responsibilities at women to support them!

Although he also wants to try it and has his own ambitions, he can't be so selfish!

Gu Xiaoxiao patted his shoulder and said with firm eyes: "You can do it, I believe you!" Just like Zhou Zeyun gave her the trust before.

After a pause, he then said: "You don't have to worry about money. With Shiweixuan's share, I can afford it for you to study! And... I just asked you to write an essay to try, in case the teacher doesn't like you.

, even if I want you to read it, I can’t help it~" She pouted and said pretending not to care, not wanting to put so much pressure on Zhou Zeyun.

However, she could also see that Zhou Zeyun really wanted to take the imperial examination. However, in the original book, he went to the battlefield to spell out the name of a general with his own flesh and blood, and ended up with his body and head separated. Now she took him for a new job.

Let's go for a walk and try the love in his heart! If it doesn't work, she will carry him!

"And if you succeed in becoming a scholar, it will be a great contribution to our family! I will be exempt from taxes when I do business in the future!" She encouraged him in different ways, her big eyes shining brightly, revealing clarity and purity.

Seeing it in Zhou Zeyun's eyes made him feel at ease for no reason, and he thought about her words carefully. If this was the case, then he would definitely work hard to gain fame and do something for her!

He finally made up his mind. Gu Xiaoxiao also smiled with satisfaction.

Three days passed quickly, and it was time to reply. Gu Xiaoxiao had just woken up early in the morning, and when she walked out, she saw Zhou Zeyun and Dabao holding the articles in their hands nervously, standing neatly waiting for her.

She raised her eyebrows, stepped forward, and looked at the paper in their hands.

Dabao had a thin piece of paper in his hand, holding it carefully. It was obviously written by him with great care, and it still had wrinkles from being rubbed many times. However, the writing style was a little rusty, and the handwriting was a little crooked, but it also had his own signature.

It's small, but pretty good-looking.

In Zhou Zeyun's hand, there are four, presumably belonging to him and three other children. The pages are smooth, the handwriting is smooth, and they have a bit of everyone's style.

Gu Xiaoxiao didn't say much, he just put away their articles and handed them over to Xu Jiaoxi today.

After lunch, under the nervous and expectant eyes of Zhou Zeyun and the children, she walked out of the house with a backpack on her back and walked to the town.

This time, I wasted some time on the road. When I have enough money later, I will buy a car!

But now I can only keep this idea, or at most give it some thought.

She didn't delay when she reached the town and went directly to Shiweixuan. She was still looking forward to how much silver she could get this time!

Teacher Xu had been waiting there for a long time. Gu Xiaoxiao suspected that he was so eager and expected to give him a meal!

She curled her lips and walked to Teacher Xu, who had already seen Gu Xiaoxiao's figure and greeted him with a smile.

"Hey! Girl! How about it! I keep my word! I've been waiting for you here for a long time!"

Gu Xiaoxiao nodded, handed the article he received in the morning to Professor Xu from his sleeve, and said slowly: "You should read it first, I have something else to do and I will come back to you later."

With that said, she went to find Shopkeeper Wang. Although it was important to learn this, her money was more important! She felt uncomfortable if she didn't get it in her hands!

Seeing that she was about to leave without stopping, Teacher Xu quickly stopped her, smiled, touched her belly and said: "Girl, girl! I have been waiting for you this morning, and my belly is empty at this time!

I get dizzy easily when I'm hungry, and I can't see clearly what's written on this paper!" After saying that, he pretended to be weak and held his head.

Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh when he looked at the old boy's appearance. How could there be such an improper teaching!

It was also what she expected, and she didn't care about this meal. After all, if she passed the test, the tutor would have to live and eat at her house, and there would be more than just this meal.

Then she asked the waiter to order the two dishes she taught him, plus a bowl of rice.

"Is it okay now?"

"Okay, okay. If you have something to do, just be busy. I'll eat and watch here. You don't have to worry. I can afford to wait if there's something to eat!" He smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits.

"Eaters have short tongues, you have to admit it! Really! Look!" Gu Xiaoxiao raised his eyebrows slightly, with a warning in his eyes.

What these words said made Teacher Xu feel excited, and he nodded quickly and responded: "Look at what you said, it's for sure! I have promised you, and I will keep my word! You hurry up, go, go, go

!”

Seeing his appearance, Gu Xiaoxiao was amused, and without saying anything, followed his push and left to find Shopkeeper Wang.

Shopkeeper Wang also seemed to be waiting for her. When she appeared, he immediately greeted her respectfully, "Oh! Madam Gu is here!"

Originally, people in the restaurant wanted to call her "Second Boss", and because it was Gu Xiaoxiao who helped Shiweixuan get back on its feet, everyone from shopkeeper Wang to Aunt Sasao was convinced by her. But she felt that calling her that was too high-profile.

Just let them call her Mrs. Gu as before.

At this time, shopkeeper Wang came to Gu Xiaoxiao and bowed slightly.

"It's the end of the month, I'm here to get the money!" she said calmly.

"It's been prepared for you! This way, please!" Shopkeeper Wang made a "please" gesture, then stepped forward to lead the way, and Gu Xiaoxiao also followed his direction.

It's just that shopkeeper Wang didn't take her to the accounting room, but went to the wing on the second floor, where she met Xiao Mu for the first time.

Gu Xiaoxiao was a little surprised, but also thought that shopkeeper Wang brought her here because of the intention of the person inside.
