"Not much." Master Guan nodded and asked Gu Boyuan, "Do you know the next sentence?"

"A person who is good at the law must be strong and upright. If he is not upright, he cannot correct the evil." Gu Boyuan said, "It means that a person who is good at the law must be a strong, resolute and upright person. If he is not upright, he cannot correct the evil."

Guan Fuzi nodded and asked, "What do you think of this?"

Gu Boyuan looked up at Li Mumu. Li Mumu nodded to Gu Boyuan and said, "Whatever you want to say, just say it."

Gu Boyuan lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head again and said to Master Guan: "Of course this is correct, but I feel that no matter what you do, you must be strong and resolute in your heart, but you need to be flexible in your actions."

Gu Boyuan thought for a moment and said, "It's just past the easy break."

Guan Fuzi nodded, "Your idea is not bad. Some things cannot be straight-forward. But you need to have a firm and resolute heart to stick to your heart, so as not to lose yourself and lose your original intention in the flexibility."

Guan Fuzi asked Gu Bojin again, "Then what do you know? You study with your brother and sister, and you don't know anything?"

"I know a little bit here and a little bit there, but I can't remember them well." Gu Baijin said truthfully.

Guan Fuzi nodded, "Then do you know some words?"

Gu Baijin nodded, "I know a little bit. Third aunt said that I will study seriously next year. I will study with my brother and sister before, so I can get a feel for it first. I am not required to learn much, but I can't make trouble. I can also recognize a lot of words." "

Master Guan smiled and took out a copy of "The Analects of Confucius", thinking that Gu Baijin was young and would not test him on difficult words.

Open one of the pages, point to a word and ask: "What does this word read?"

"Such!" Gu Baijin said, "The deceased was like this, he never gave up day and night."

Master Guan was surprised, "Oh? Do you know this sentence?"

Gu Baijin pouted, "I just don't know much, but I know a little."

"Hahahaha!" Master Guan laughed, "Okay, okay."

"These three children are very smart. Although Gu Xiuxiu is a girl, she studies with her and is very good at it. Gu Baiyuan has his own opinions and is a teachable talent. Gu Baijin is smart, lively and cute. Although he is the youngest, he can I also know a lot.”

"You can see the Gu family's intentions." Master Guan smiled brightly and looked much easier to get along with than when he first arrived. "Tomorrow is early, you three will come to my place and start class."

"Thank you, Master." Li Mumu reminded quickly.

"Thank you, Master." The three children said in unison.

"Master, how are you going to eat tonight?" Li Mumu asked.

Guan Fuzi waved his hand and said, "I'm strolling around the town tonight. Is your store open for dinner?"

"It's open." Li Mumu said, "Do you want to try it?"

Li Mumu continued: "In the future, if you don't want to eat at home and want to eat in a store, it's the same thing. We are all family members in our store and they all recognize you."

Guan Fuzi waved his hand and understood what Li Mumu meant, and said: "It's too troublesome to deliver three meals a day to your family. I happened to go out for a walk in the morning and just found a food stall to eat. Lunch During dinner time, I just finished teaching the children, sent them home, and ate at your house by the way."

"If you occasionally want to eat in a store, let me tell you. It won't be troublesome to go to the store by yourself." Guan Fuzi said, "If I go to the store, I will charge according to the rules. I will not eat for free."

"Sure." Li Mumu stopped being polite to Master Guan and agreed happily.

She saw that Mr. Guan was not a hypocritical and polite person who did whatever he said. Instead, he hated others being blindly polite to him.

It was painful and happy, but Master Guan was happy.

Sure enough, Li Mumu happily agreed, and Master Guan smiled even more on his face.

"Then we won't disturb you. You haven't had time to have a good rest since you arrived today." Li Mumu said with a smile, "You rest first, we will send the child over tomorrow morning."

Guan Fuzi nodded.

Li Mumu and others took the children and left.

It wasn't until they left the small courtyard that everyone breathed a sigh of relief and let go of their heavy hearts.

"Now I can finally feel relieved." Wang Cuizhen said, "I think this Master Guan is really good, not the scholar or snobbish person before. This is what a scholar looks like in my mind."

"Yes." Gu Shangyong nodded, "We had never seen other scholars before, so we thought it was normal for scholars to be like this. Now after meeting Master Guan, we know that real scholars are broad-minded and knowledgeable."

"However, even Master Guan praised Mu Mu's knowledge." Wang Cuizhen said, "I think it's good for Mu Mu that you keep teaching children."

Li Mumu shook her head and said: "What I just said to Master Guan was not a polite word. It's okay for me to teach the children to speak the vernacular, and there is no problem in reading and literacy. But the imperial examination is not just about these tests. You really need to write articles. It should be combined with people's livelihood, and even policy questions related to enemy countries will be tested."

"We can't teach these things, we still have to rely on the Master." Li Mumu said.

Her thoughts are too shocking now.

And for a while, she really couldn't think completely in the way of ancient people.

Although she cannot fully agree with some of the ideas of this era, in order to take the exam, she does not want her modern ideas to influence the children too much.

"That's true." Wang Cuizhen nodded.

The three of them sent the children home together. Unexpectedly, when they entered the house, they found that there seemed to be a guest at home.

Bursts of laughter could be heard from time to time in the hall.

There are mothers-in-law, and there are also unfamiliar laughters.

"Is there a guest at home?" Li Mumu thought to herself that they had just come back to pick up the children and find Master Guan, and it didn't take long in total.

I didn’t hear Mother Gu say there would be guests at this time.

"I don't know." Wang Cuizhen shook her head blankly, "I never heard my mother say that."

"Let's not go in." Gu Shangyong was still a social fear.

Li Mumu guessed that Gu Xiuxiu's I personality was probably inherited from Gu Shangyong.

Li Mumu nodded. Although she was not socially anxious, she was actually too lazy to socialize with strangers outside of work.

The children were sent back, and the three of them were about to leave and go back to work in the restaurant.

Unexpectedly, Li Mumu heard a strange voice mention her, "Your daughter-in-law, Mrs. Li, is well-known in our town now. She can be said to be the daughter of hundreds of families. Not to mention that your family has a pure and upright family style. Naturally, More people are willing to marry your family."

"Don't worry, I'm not an irresponsible person who talks about marriage randomly." The strange woman said. From her words, she must be a matchmaker. "The Liang family who asked me to propose marriage is also well-known in our town. That Liang family Young Master is the shopkeeper of Zhenping Inn in our town, and his family also has fertile land. There are two sons and one daughter in the Liang family. The eldest son and daughter are already married, but Young Master Liang is now at the age to say marriage."
