After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

And at this moment, where is Jia She?

Of course, he was guarding the fragments of his three-legged brush washer, and watched with his own eyes the craftsman brought by Mr. Li to repair it.

Originally, he had been coveting this brush for a long time, but because he knew that the old lady was unlikely to give it to him, he held back and said nothing, just to pay the old lady a few glances every day.

Now I finally got it, but I was smashed to pieces by Jia Zheng before I had any fun playing with it.

Although Mr. Li said that this craftsman is specialized in doing this, he is always worried if he does not see it with his own eyes.

Therefore, Mrs. Xu lent him the small flower hall for guests, and asked him and the craftsman surnamed Shi to repair brushes and washers there.

Jia She thought that putting the pieces back together would require a lot of tools.

However, when he saw Master Shi, he only brought a piece of rough paper that was much harder than ordinary paper.

Jia Amnesty looked left and right, and asked curiously, "Don't you need anything else?"

"I've met the young master." The stonemason greeted Jia Amnesty first.

Jia Amnesty hurriedly said, "Sir, there is no need to be too polite."

Only then did the stonemason answer his question, "I still need a raw duck egg."

As soon as Jia Amnesty heard this, he told Yantai, "Go to the kitchen and ask for a raw duck egg."

"Yes." Yantai responded and trotted away.

Inkstone was also very curious about how to put the pile of broken porcelain back together.

Here, the stonemason took advantage of the inkstone to get the duck eggs, and asked Jia Amnesty how big the brush was originally, and what it looked like.

After Jia She got it, he played with it for a long time, and he could describe it with his eyes closed.

The stonemason nodded while listening.Then, I folded the paper in my hand back and forth, and a shape of the inner tank of a brush washer came out.

"Let's take a look, young master, what size does the inner groove look like?"

Jia Amnesty looked at it carefully and nodded again and again: "Not bad, not bad, that's it."

At this time, Yantai also came back with a raw duck egg.

The mason took an empty tea bowl from the table, broke the duck eggs, and filtered the egg whites into the bowl.

Then, he opened the box containing the scraps of pen washing, dipped the scraps in egg white, and stuck them bit by bit to the inner mold folded out of hard paper.

At the beginning, due to less stickiness, it was not well formed.As he sticks more and more, the outline of the brush will become more obvious.

Jia She's surprised eyeballs almost popped out.

After about an hour, the stonemason glued the pieces completely.

"This... that's all right?" Jia She felt that his tongue was no longer obedient.

The mason said: "Wait for two hours, the egg white is completely solidified, pour some water into it, soften the rough paper and peel it off."

As he spoke, he took out a small carving knife from his sleeve pocket, and carved the date and signature on the bottom of the brush.

"It's a blessing for me to leave traces on such a good thing."

Jia She was amazed, and seeing Lie Xinxie said happily: "Master Shi, this...can you teach me?"

Seeing the stonemason's expression of embarrassment, Jia She hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will fix it. Besides, I don't repair it for others, I just play it by myself."

Although he is young, his mind is very flexible.He knows that for many people, as long as they have money, there is nothing difficult.

No matter how young he is, he is also the son of the Duke's Mansion. If he proposes to learn, it is really hard for a stonemason to refuse.

But he is not willing to teach willingly.

After all, it was his craft to eat.

Hearing Jia She said that he would not repair things for others, he felt relieved and said, "Since my lord is willing to learn, Shi naturally dare not take care of himself with his broom."

Jia Amnesty was stunned: "What do you mean?"

The mason was also stunned when he asked him, and then he realized that the young man in front of him was not very old, so he probably hadn't read much.

So, he said it again: "Since the young master wants to learn, just teach me."

"Great!" Jia She clapped his hands happily.

Jia She was thinking about learning, but couldn't wait for a moment, so he simply asked Mr. Li for leave, and took a few people to the mason's house.

There are all kinds of tools in his place.

Jia Amnesty walked around the room where he was working, and saw a special wall, on which were placed a lot of porcelain that had obviously been restored.

"These are all antiques?" Jia Amnesty leaned over to look curiously, "Can I pick them up and have a look?"

The mason said: "These are ordinary porcelain, for children to practice their hands. You can look at them as you like."

The stonemason's son, Shi Xiu, is in his early tenth year, a little older than Jia She, and now he is following Jia She.

Jia Amnesty picked up a small bottle, looked it over carefully, let out an exclamation, and turned to Shi Xiu, "You repaired all of these?"

Shi Xiu said "hmm" with a dull expression, unable to say even a nice word.

The stonemason watched and sighed secretly.

The reason why he was willing to bring Jia Amnesty back home was to let his son meet a high-ranking nobleman, so that he could take care of him when he was in trouble in the future when he was gone.

However, Shi Xiu's character was too dull, he didn't know how to grasp the opportunity presented to him.

Fortunately, Jia Amnesty was acquainted with Shi Xiu and admired Shi Xiu's craftsmanship, so he was willing to take the initiative to talk to him.

Seeing this, the stonemason secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and made up his mind that he must reveal more of his unique skills in front of Jia She, so as to lure him to his house a few more times.

As the saying goes: meet three love.

This has been seen a lot, no matter what, there is a bit of love, isn't it?

So, from then on, Jia Amnesty went to Shi's house every five days.Most of the time, I learn crafts from masons, and occasionally play with Shi Xiu and the children on the same street.

Because of Shi Xiu's dull temper and a bit of a dullness, the children on the street like to bully him, and even nicknamed him "Stone Idiot".

After Jia She came, because of the gorgeous clothes and domineering attitude, the adults of the children's family secretly warned them not to mess around, let alone dirty Jia She's clothes or damage his things. .

After all, there is nothing on his body that is not high-quality goods, ordinary people like them can't afford to pay for any damage.

Naturally, no one dared to bully Shi Xiu who was with him.

Even, the status of the associated stonemasons on this street is also rising.

After all, not everyone can teach the son of the Duke's Mansion to learn things.

The masons enjoyed the benefits and convenience, so they paid more attention to teaching Jia She.

Jia She found that perhaps because he had spent half his life restoring antiques, the masons' understanding of antiques was no worse than those of the masters.

But because a stonemason has no reputation, no matter how much he knows, he is just a craftsman, and he will never become a celebrity.

Jia Amnesty finally understood why the family did not expect him to be an official, but they insisted that he take the Juren examination.

These days, whether there is fame or not, the difference is really too big.

Because of Jia Daishan's inaction, there was really no follow-up to the incident of Jia Zheng smashing the pen and washing it. Slowly, even Jia Zheng himself forgot.

But he didn't know that the thing he didn't want to happen had sprouted before he knew it.

——Jia Daishan has secretly made up his mind that he will seek a noble position for his younger son in the future, lest his elder son refuse to take care of his younger brother after his death.

In fact, no matter in his previous life or in this life, Jia Zheng unconsciously helped Jia Amnesty resist the pressure from his father.

In the previous life, Jia She was spoiled by the old lady and turned into an unambitious playboy, but Jia Zheng had high hopes for Jia Daishan because of Shi's promotion.

Because of Jia Zheng, a very promising son in Shi's mouth, Jia Daishan felt that the eldest son would inherit the title in the future, and as long as the younger son was taught well, both sons would be well-off in the future.

It's a pity that Jia Daishan discovered later that Jia Zheng's talent was blown out with the help of his wife.

Then, before he died, he helped to apply for an official position;

In this life, Jia Zheng played the sign of a child prodigy from the very beginning, attracting all of Jia Daishan's expectations.

When he found out that he was a fake child prodigy, Jia Daishan was used to not demanding much from Jia Amnesty.

I don't know, if Jia Zheng knew this, what would he think?

This, unknown.

It's just that Jia Zheng was convinced that as long as there was an old lady backing him up, even the master and wife would not dare to speak loudly to him.

However, the old lady is old, and her life span is limited.

After the old lady fell ill again, Jia Zhengcai suddenly remembered: In his previous life, the old lady died when he was eight years old and when Jia She was 11 years old.

And at that time, he had already passed his tenth birthday.

That is to say...

The old lady is dying.

For the first time, he frantically turned his mind for others, racking his brains to recall why the old lady died.

At this time, he began to regret, regretting that he didn't care enough for the old lady in his previous life, and that he only knew a few words about the life and death of the old lady from the servants' chat.

He only remembered that the old lady seemed to be vomiting and diarrhea after eating a bowl of braised mutton, and then... and then he didn't know.

So, does it mean that as long as the old lady is prevented from eating those too greasy things, the old lady will not go so early?

After several years of rebirth, Jia Zheng finally decided to take the initiative to ask for a change.

He began to care about the old lady's diet, and almost every few days he had to tell the people around the old lady: the old lady is old and has a weak spleen and stomach, so don't let the old lady eat those things with thick oil and red sauce.

Seeing that the elder grandson cared about him so much, Mrs. Sun was very grateful, how could she not do it?

The people serving Sun's side were even more careful, especially when Jia Zheng was around.

——To put it bluntly, how many more years can the old lady live?These people will still count on Jia Zheng in the future.

Now that there is an opportunity to sell well to Jia Zheng, which one will not work hard?

Poor Jia Zheng is on all possible precautions, but he still can't let go of fate.

In this life, the old lady is still suffering from vomiting and diarrhea.

The author has something to say: Regarding Jia Zheng, don't worry, the wicked will have their own way.The back has been arranged.
