After Gu's mother had already told Gu's father what he should give in, she came over to say goodbye to her son.

The separation time was not long, but because Gu Wenjing was involved in the fate of the whole family, everyone was particularly nervous.

Gu’s mother sighed: “Wenjing, no matter what, mom, as long as you come back healthy!”

She remembered that in order to pass the exam, Gu's father once forced to answer questions when he was sick in the exam room, which made him finally lie down and was carried out by the officers and soldiers. That time he almost lost his life. He didn't want his son to take his life seriously because of the exam.

Gu Wenjing nodded: "Mom is at home, so you must take good care of yourself!"

On the way to the prefecture, there were six scholars who accompanied him, but in addition to the scholars, there were also their own family members, scholars, and a total of more than a dozen.

When Gu Wenjing saw He Zhengming with the book boy, he invited him to ride a carriage with him. Other scholars were not treated so well, so he could only spend money to rent a carriage by himself. Those with too much money rent a carriage, and those with too little money rent a donkey carriage.

The group slowly set off on the road.

Although I was following the official road, the ancient official roads were naturally incomparable to modern cement roads, and the speed of the journey was slow.

Fortunately, there is still one month left, which is enough for them to slowly reach the state capital.

They spent more than half a month on the way and arrived at the state capital.

The prefecture is much more prosperous than a small county in Qingyang County, so the prices are naturally much higher. Especially now, it is the autumn examination period, and there are countless scholars who come to the prefecture to participate in the provincial examination, and prices are also rising again and again.

A group of people found an inn with many empty rooms. When asked about the price of the hotel, they were shocked. An ordinary room costs 100 cents a night, which is simply a shady waste of customers!

Among the six scholars, He Zhengming was the best in his family, but even He Zhengming felt that the price was so high that he felt that it hurt him.

So Gu Wenjing suggested: "It's better to share a courtyard!"

Renting a house is much more cost-effective than staying in an inn. Moreover, the six scholars have family members or book children around them. I can help with small things like cooking.

Everyone felt it was reasonable, so they went to Yashang to rent a house.

I found several houses for rent, and finally chose the one closest to the examination room and rented them. The rent was equal to each person, and the others were paid for at their own expense.

Gu Wenjing and Gu’s father chose a room to live in. Gu’s father, a man who had never done housework, refused to let Gu Wenjing clean up the house at this time: “You have a good rest, dad, come and do it! You must not delay your exam!”

Gu Wenjing was forcibly pressed on a chair by Gu's father and sat watching him clean up the house. Gu's father was clumsy, but his serious appearance made Gu Wenjing agree with his father in this life.

He quietly got up to help clean up. Gu’s father made the bed and turned around and found that he had wiped the windows of the tables, chairs and windows. He said anxiously: “Didn’t you tell you not to do anything? Just read a book!”

Gu Wenjing was directly bombarded by Gu's father.

Standing in the yard, Gu Wenjing saw the room that Zhang Xiucai chose. Through the window, he saw that Zhang Xiucai was sitting on a chair like an old man, waiting for his wife to clean up the house.

Zhang Xiucai was a few years younger than Gu's father, and his wife was much younger than Gu's mother. However, when Gu Wenjing saw Zhang Xiucai's wife before, she felt that she looked older than Gu's father.
