Gu Yun felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and he couldn't tell what he felt.
When the carriage reached a small town on the way, Yu Jiao gave the driver some silver and asked him to buy another carriage in the town.
While changing carriages, Gu Yun walked up to Yu Jiao and wanted to ask Liu Ziqi about the matter of Mengjia Village. He hesitated for a moment and ultimately did not speak.
Being sold by one's family must be a very sad thing. Although he was used to behaving inappropriately, he did not want to expose Yu Jiao's scars.
Because of Lin Fang's incident, they stayed in the town to buy a carriage. When they arrived in Changkui, it was already dark. The Yu family didn't have many houses, and there were no vacant ones. The conditions of the family might not be what Liu Ziqi and Gu Yun would like. It was impossible for Yu Jiao to invite these two to her home.
Fortunately, Liu Ziqi and Gu Yun did not have this idea. They planned to find an inn in Changkui to stay for one night and then go to Mengjia Village tomorrow.
Liu Ziqi originally wanted to ask Yu Jiao about Meng Qingyun, but was interrupted by Gu Yun, who hinted that Mengjia Village must be Yu Jiao's sad place, so it is better not to mention it to her. Anyway, they have already arrived in Changkui and can go to Mengjia Village in person tomorrow, so there is no need to rush.
Liu Ziqi felt that what Gu Yun said made sense. He was actually a very careful and considerate person, but he overlooked this point because he wanted to know too much about Meng Qingyun.
On the contrary, Gu Yun's thoughtfulness is very rare.
The two said goodbye to Yu Jiao and her group in Changkui Town. When Yu Jiao and her group returned to Yu's house, it was already dark.
Lights were on in the main hall of the courtyard. Hearing the noise, the Yu family members who had not yet gone to bed hurried to the gate of the courtyard.
Zhao from the third room held Yu Jinshu and Yu Jinyan's hands and asked about their well-being. Her eyes were red and she excitedly pulled them towards the main hall to meet the old lady and the old man, not caring about anyone else at all.
Yu Qizhe arranged an empty room for the two coachmen of the Mu family and asked them to stay there for one night before returning to Qingzhou. Song Shi did not have time to talk to Yu Qizhe, so she went to help the two men clean up the room and change the bedding.
Yu Qiaoshan and Yu Zhizhou returned to the west room, while Yu Jiao and the other two returned to the east room. Yu Mengshan kept saying, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
There was a smile on his dark face, and he looked at Yu Qizhe with great relief, especially when he saw that Yu Qizhe was in good health and had a rosy complexion, which was very different from the sickly look he had shown after the examination three years ago. He finally put his heart at ease.
Not long after, Grandpa Yu called Yu Qizhe and Yu Zhizhou to the main hall to talk, and asked Zhang and Song to go to the kitchen to cook for them.
"How did you do in the exam this time?" Old Man Yu had already asked Yu Jinyan and Yu Jinshu, and he asked the same question again to Yu Qizhe and Yu Zhizhou.
Yu Zhizhou said truthfully, "My grandson's answer was not very good. As my fifth brother said, it is too difficult to pass the Autumn Examination without passing the Tongsheng Examination."
Yu Ruhai nodded. He originally had no hope that Yu Zhizhou would pass the exam, but he knew how talented these kids were in studying.
The person he valued most was Yu Qizhe, so he looked at him with loving and expectant eyes.
"The results will be announced in ten days or so. Whether I can make it or not depends on the results then." Yu Qizhe is not the kind of person who likes to make too many promises. Even though Prefect Yang has told him that he will definitely be on the list this time, the results have not come out yet. If he says that he will definitely make it, it would be too arrogant. If he says that he will not make it, it would be too modest.
Hearing him say this, Mr. Yu felt somewhat disappointed. Chen Zhiqing had returned to the village yesterday, and he heard from others that he had written very well this time and should have no problem passing the exam.
The Yu family had four sons who were going to the provincial examination. If any of them failed, the villagers would laugh at them behind their backs.
Especially when he thought about the fact that Yu Qizhe had been ill for all these years and had been at home without going to school, and the possibility of him failing the exam was even greater, Old Man Yu's face suddenly became filled with worry.
