Female supremacy: leading the whole family to change their family

Chapter 193 Lin's Niece

After taking a shower, eating, and resting in bed for a day, Gu Yao finally felt alive.

When she woke up, she saw Lin Wulang sitting beside her, embroidering with her.

Lin Wulang looked at Gu Yao with a surprised look on his face after she woke up: "My dear wife, you are awake. Come and have a glass of water. You have slept for a whole day. I am sorry for your hard work during this period."

Gu Yao sighed: "What's so hard about this? It's my duty to send Third Daddy to the ancestral tomb. Gujia Village is pretty good now. There are many scholars. Unfortunately, there are no first-class or second-class Jinshi, but there are two Jinshi of the same rank."

After hearing this, Lin Wulang smiled and said, "That's great. It's much better than before. There are more educated people in Gujia Village. It's also good for the village. In the future, there will no longer be some poor people who can't afford to eat in Gujia Village."

He really felt that his wife did a good job. She donated money to Gujia Village almost every year, and even sponsored some poor scholars and poor people in Gujia Village. "

If it weren’t for her wife, Gujia Village would still be extremely poor.

Several of his sisters and nieces have already gone to school. Although they did not pass the imperial examination to become Jinshi, they have become Juren. This is already something that the Lin family can only dream of in Linjia Village.

Gu Yao said, "By the way, I heard that your niece will go to Beijing to take the imperial examination next year, right? If she has no place to live, let her live at home. After all, it will be convenient for her to live at home, and she won't have to worry about anything."

Lin Wulang sighed: "This is my niece's second time taking the imperial examination this year. I don't know if she can pass this time."

He really wanted someone in his family to be an official. After all, the life of an official was much better.

Although there are risks, at least you have a good social status, can have enough food and clothing, and even if you don't become an official, you can become a teacher and support your family.

Two days later, Lin Wulang received a letter from home saying that his eldest niece would be coming to the capital in a few days to take part in the imperial examination next year.

After receiving the news, he immediately wrote back and asked them to let his niece live in their Gu family.

Then he asked the servants to clean out a yard in the front yard for his niece to live in.

This niece is the only one in the Lin family who is gifted in studying. The others either passed the examination for scholars and then opened private schools.

Or they would work as accountants, or do other jobs. Generally speaking, the Lin family is now a well-off family, and they have servants to command.

Lin Wulang also had some thoughts about the men in his family. He was thinking that if he passed the imperial examination, those unmarried young men in his family could marry her.

After all, the Lin family can be considered a wealthy family now.

But he didn't dare to say it now. After all, he knew that even if his niece became an official, her position would be low, and she was the only official in the family, so she would not be of much help when the time came.

Han Yuqing heard that Lin Wulang's relatives were coming home. She looked at Zhuxin and said, "Zhuxin, what do you think Dafulang means by this? He doesn't want to marry the son of his family to his niece, does he?"

Zhu Xin thought about it and said, "My husband probably won't do that. Although the Lin family is rich now, they don't have much background. Our family is a Beijing official family, and we are all officials. No matter what, it is impossible for us to marry our son to their family."

"How is it impossible? After all, Doctor Lang likes his niece very much, and his niece is the only one who can pass the exam. Do you think he will have any ideas? What's more, that is his mother's family. Wouldn't he want to promote her?"

Han Yuqing didn't have any ideas. After all, his family was a merchant family, and he didn't want to marry his children to merchants. Life would be very hard that way.

Although he had never suffered in his mother's family, he knew that if he married a merchant in the future, he would never be able to get out of it.

So now he particularly wants to marry his son to a scholarly family, which will be good for his future.

Han Yuqing thought for a moment and said to Zhu Xin: "Watch Yu'er closely from now on. Don't let him meet with certain people, especially Doctor Lang's niece."

The Lin family was a good one, but he was unwilling to let his son marry into their family.

Although it is possible that he was overthinking it, he still had to think about his son's lifelong affairs.

It seems that it is better to arrange a marriage for his son as soon as possible, and find a family of scholars in the capital. He would be willing to marry her even if the family background is simple.

What Lin Wulang was thinking about was his son Gu Yue, after all, his son was already of age.

Although he is still young, he thought that if she agreed, they could get engaged first.

Gu Yao didn't think too much about it. She thought that since Lin Wulang's niece was a talented person, she would naturally be willing to help. It was nothing to just stay for a few days.

If she has any difficulties, she is willing to provide other help if she is an official in the capital.

She didn't think about the marriage of her other sons at the moment. After all, they were still young, and she would feel very sad if Gu Ning got married.

Unless the remaining children really need to get married, she would not be willing to arrange marriages for them in advance.

They are all still children, how can they get married without even having the chance to enjoy themselves?

Near the end of the year, Lin Wulang's nephew Lin Ye came to the capital and met Gu Yao.

She was very excited looking at Gu Yao, she was the most precious person in their family and also an official's wife, so she had always admired her.

"Lin Ye has met my aunt."

Gu Yao smiled and said, "No need to be polite. We are a family, all relatives, and there is no need to be so formal. You can stay at home for the time being. You can ask me if you have any questions about your studies. I hope you can pass the exam in the spring."

Lin Ye was also very excited and said quickly: "Yes, aunt, I will study hard and try to pass the exam when the time comes."

Gu Yao was afraid that she was under too much pressure and said, "There is no need to be too stressed. Just let it go. I'll let An An take you out for a walk later. Some of the scenery in Beijing is quite nice."

Because Gu Ping was still on duty, I didn't let him take care of her. Although Gu An had passed the imperial examination, I hadn't assigned him an official position yet, so he was still idle at home.

Lin Ye was also a clear-headed person. She was afraid of delaying Gu An. What's more, she was just a niece. How could she ask her master to stop everything to take care of her?

"Aunt, that's not necessary. I'll be fine by myself so as not to delay the Second Young Miss."

"She is your second cousin, not the second young lady. She doesn't have much to do right now. It's better to find her something to do instead of staying at home all day. Let her take you with her. She will accompany you wherever you want to go. You just came to Beijing and you are not familiar with this place, so let her take you to get familiar with it."

After listening to Gu Yao's words, Lin Ye had no choice but to agree. She was not an ungrateful person and she knew that her aunt was doing good to her, and she was very touched.

Everyone in the family said that the Gu family was a good family and did not look down on them. In fact, everything in their home was brought by the Gu family, and she was very grateful.

He must study hard to pass the imperial examination and then give back to the Gu family with all his strength.
