The identity of the direct son - Xu I's prosperous world

Both Mrs. Xu and Uncle Xu received letters from Mr. Ji.

At that time, Xu's aunt, the Xu family, was still living in the Xu family's house as a guest. She would live in the Xu family for a few months every year, and the servants of the Xu family had become accustomed to it.

Mrs. Xu is generous to others. She lives in Xu's family, and the servants below who often help her can get more rewards, so they all like her to live here.

Mrs. Xu's family also very much hoped that she would live here. If those beautiful new aunts were very unruly, she would make Uncle Xu unhappy if she took too much action. Nothing will happen.

As for the aunts, in fact, when Mrs. Xu lived in Xu's house, they were much more relaxed, because the eldest wife spent a lot of time on Mrs. Xu, so she would spend less time thinking about them and would not be too harsh on them.

Therefore, everyone is happy that Mrs. Xu lives in the Xu family.

Brother Heng lives in Xu's house, and his daily plan will not change. It is still the same as at Taohuazhuang. I have benefited a lot. He is a sharp-edged person. He taught Brother Heng, but only taught him to practice calligraphy and speak the Four Books and Five Classics according to the script. He was often asked questions by analogy, and he received a lot. Xiu, it's hard not to think hard about answering questions. In the past three or four years of being the teacher of Brother Heng, he feels that he has grown a lot. He wants to participate in the autumn festival in August of this year, so he has already made an agreement with Mr. Xu I went home and stopped being a teacher to Brother Heng.

Although Brother Heng lost his wife, he never let go of his studies every day.

He almost has a photographic memory, a strong memory of his extensive knowledge, and has the experience of the previous life. He treats things comprehensively and cautiously. For this life, he can be considered to have a very detailed plan.

Because of his physical limitations, he had to compete for the position of a legitimate son in front of Mr. Ji.

If he is treated as a daughter, his life will be very difficult in this era where women need three obediences and four virtues. It is definitely not what he thinks about being a husband and a child.Besides, with his body like that, I'm afraid he won't be able to marry at that time, and he will be disgusted if he marries into his husband's family. Moreover, because there are two sets of reproductive systems, it is very likely that both sets cannot be used, and there is no birth. capable.

Furthermore, his physical defects are fine when he is still young and his secondary sexual characteristics have not developed. When the secondary sexual characteristics develop, he must take medicine every day to maintain hormone balance, otherwise there will be Life is in danger.

If it is a marriage, which man wants to marry a woman who takes medicine all day long and has no fertility.

So, you still have to be a man.

As a man, it goes without saying that he can make contributions and have his own value in life. When the time comes, he will marry his wife, and after his wife marries him, she can only depend on him to live. It will also be good to this woman, and the two of them have supported this whole life.

But all of this is based on Mr. Ji's recognition of his identity as the eldest son.

If Mr. Ji does not recognize him, and he has another son, the family business will be inherited by this son. If he has no other sons, and the Ji family is a prominent family in Xinghua, there will be no Ji family at that time People came to take over his family's business a hundred years later, but he, Ji Heng, got nothing.

Although there were many problems in this area, Ji Heng didn't spend too much time thinking about them, because Mrs. Xu and Uncle Xu would not let him suffer, and they would force Mr. Ji to admit his identity step by step.

Brother Heng is at Xu's house, and Xu Qilang was going to study in his own school, because the master is not a good teacher, but he just asked Xu Qilang to endorse and then said that he was careless. Every time Xu Qilang struggled to hold on If he doesn't doze off, when Brother Heng is around, he will resolutely not go to his own school to study. Instead, he prefers to go to Brother Heng to study with him.

He read the book and endorsed it by himself, and asked Brother Heng if he didn't understand something. Brother Heng spoke much more vividly than the master. Besides, Brother Heng is good-looking and has a clear and tender voice, which is no better than listening to the teacher's vague lectures. much.

And the eldest wife didn't care about Xu Qilang at this time, so Xu Qilang stayed in Brother Heng's study. Mrs. Xu prepared a desk for him, and the two children each occupied a desk to study.

Uncle Xu received the letter, and he didn't even go out to socialize that day. He asked his mother-in-law to pass the word to Xianxiaju, and asked Mrs. Xu to go to the study in the front yard. Uncle Xu sat inside and waited for her.

Mrs. Xu knew it was a big deal, and there were not many big things about her, so she went into the study, greeted Uncle Xu, and after sitting down, she got straight to the point, "Brother, has the master's reply arrived yet? "

Uncle Xu nodded with a smile.

Seeing him happy, Mrs. Xu knew that Mr. Ji hadn't tied his mind and was in the same heart with them.

Mrs. Xu also laughed, "What does the master mean, please give it to Brother Heng?"

Seeing that Uncle Xu is so happy, she must have asked her to bring Brother Heng to Beijing. Back then, she carried her son to Yangzhou in despair. Now that she is going back like this, Master Ji will not send someone to pick her up. She will not be so simple Departure.It was also intentional to ask Uncle Xu like this.

Uncle Xu handed an unopened letter to Mrs. Xu, and then gave her an unopened letter. Mrs. Xu, as a merchant lady, could read and write, and the Xu family loved her all the time. Let her play, her level is not low, not only literate, but also understands accounting, accounting and planning.

Mrs. Xu read the opened letter first. It was written by Mrs. Ji to Uncle Xu. First, she mentioned a few things in the court in a vague way, and then thanked him for taking care of Mrs. Xu and Brother Heng, and then It is said that Brother Heng has grown to such a big size in a blink of an eye. As a father, he has never seen him grow up, so he can't help but miss him, and Brother Heng should indeed pay close attention to his studies. It would be more beneficial for Brother Heng to be disciplined by his father himself.Between the lines, it is full of Yin Yin's father-son relationship, completely forgetting that he wanted to throw Brother Heng to death back then.

After Xu read it, she still had a smile on her face, but her eyes turned cold, but she didn't express her dissatisfaction with her husband, so she opened the still sealed letter.

This letter was written to her, but it contained a few words of greetings to her health, and it also said that she had brought Brother Heng to such a great hardship on her alone, and then it was about Brother Heng's studies, which made her feel sad. Mrs. Xu took Brother Heng to Beijing. This letter was brought by Cao Gang, and it will be very soon. Later, he will send Liu Kai, the steward, to Yangzhou to pick her and Brother Heng, and let her hurry up to sort out the things that are going to Beijing, and everything else Let's wait until she and Brother Heng go to Beijing.

Although Mrs. Ji expressed very cleanly that even Uncle Xu was so happy to let Mrs. Xu take Brother Heng to Beijing, but Mrs. Xu's expression sank after the initial burst of laughter. The eyes are also deep, and there is no happy face.

She showed the letter in her hand to Uncle Xu again, after Uncle Xu read it, he understood why the only sister had his face down again.

Uncle Xu said, "Ming Xiao, as a big brother, I know your grievances. Back then, my brother-in-law let you come back to Yangzhou mercilessly, but now he let you go to Beijing without saying anything else. You It's normal to have resentment in your heart. However, my brother-in-law is now a third-rank official. Do you think there are several adults in the court who have become servants in their forties? It is not easy for my brother-in-law in the officialdom. As the head of the house, you , you should be more considerate to him. Besides, you want Brother Heng to be well, and your brother-in-law asked you to take Brother Heng to Beijing, so go to Beijing. It’s pointless to think too much about other things.”

Mrs. Xu sighed, and said, "Brother, even so, it's easy to bring the case together, but it's difficult to get the husband and wife to be of the same mind. I, Xu Mingxiao, married him myself, so what can I do to feel sorry for him? As a result, I promoted him to three housemates, whoever aunt he looked at more, I also promoted her in the same way. Brother Heng was born, and Brother Heng's body is like that, so he has no sympathy. If he wants to throw him to death, he has no pity for me, and he has no father-son affection for Brother Heng. Does he still blame Brother Heng for his behavior? Why don't you think about it? He himself was in the Ministry of Punishments, and he was harsh and degraded, so he made a good son like this..."

Before she finished speaking, Uncle Xu had already scolded her, "Ming Xiao, how can you talk nonsense."

Xu sighed and stopped talking.

After a while, he said again, "I don't want to think about how he treated Brother Heng back then. I brought Brother Heng to live in Yangzhou for these years, and I went to Beijing with tens of thousands of taels of silver every year. Save money for flowers, and only have this money every year. His money is my dowry, and I managed it. If I go to Beijing, he will treat Brother Heng as cruelly as before. I will not be like the last time this time That's the way to take people away."

Uncle Xu knew that Mrs. Xu had always been proud and arrogant, but he suffered only because he was born a man.

Uncle Xu persuaded her a few more words, telling her not to be stubborn with Lord Ji, and then discussed about going to Beijing.

Xu complained again about the matter of going to Beijing, "When I married him, there was no servant in his family. At the beginning, there was only one servant Liu Kai by his side. This Liu Kai was clumsy because he was The people in the family are desperately promoted, and now they are the first-class stewards in the mansion. The dowry I brought back at the beginning was many times more capable than him, but he still looked down upon him. This time, he sent this Liu Kai. He picked me up and didn't send anyone who agrees with me, he did it on purpose."

Uncle Xu had no choice but to say, "If my brother-in-law hadn't told you to take Brother Heng to Beijing, you wouldn't have complained so much. This is what you wanted, and you were allowed to go to Beijing, but you talked a lot."

Mrs. Xu looked at Uncle Xu and smiled, "I'm leaving Yangzhou. I won't have the opportunity to sit and complain to you like this with Big Brother in the future."

Uncle Xu loved this little girl very much, so he smiled, a warm smile from the heart, "I will often go to the capital when I get the chance, and when the time comes, you won't find the chance to talk to me."

Xu said, "Anyway, it won't be as convenient as it has been in recent years."

Uncle Xu said, "I'm just a younger sister like you. What do you want? Am I on your side? If my brother-in-law goes too far, I will speak up for you."

Having said this, the two of them discussed some things about entering Beijing, and then Mrs. Xu went into the backyard and told the eldest wife about her going to Beijing. The eldest wife was very happy for her and wanted to help her pack her luggage, and asked Xu The big merchant ship of my family went to Beijing, so I could pack a lot of things, and it was not cramped to live in the ship.

When Mrs. Xu returned to Xianxiaju, Brother Heng and Xu Qilang were still in the study. Mrs. Xu glanced at the serious and attentive two people at the door. Xu Qilang was asking Brother Heng a question. Next to Brother Heng, propping his chin with one hand, like a little grown-up, he squinted his eyes and said calmly, "'If you don't get angry, don't open up, don't talk about it, if you take one corner and don't turn it against three corners, then there will be nothing. 'It means that when instructing a student, you can't enlighten him until he wants to understand the meaning but can't get it. Don't enlighten him, teach him until he thinks it out but just doesn't know how to express it. One aspect of knowledge, but he can’t deduce other aspects from it, so don’t teach him any more. This is from the perspective of educators, so that students have the ability to think independently. As a student, of course, it is necessary to Be able to think independently, learn to infer other things from one instance, and don’t bother the teacher continuously unless it is absolutely necessary.”

His expression was flat, and when he glanced at Xu Qilang, Xu Qilang smiled, "I won't bother you casually next time, I must first think about it myself."

Brother Heng said, "Now that you know, let's read the book quickly."

After speaking, he wanted to bury his head again, but he saw Mrs. Xu at the door out of the corner of his eyes, so he got up and went over, "Mother, what's the matter?"

Xu Qilang also looked over, and Xu said, "It's okay, go do your own thing, you study hard, but don't forget to rest."

Xu Qilang said with a smile, "Don't worry, aunt, we have decided to go out to the bookstore tomorrow to buy books, and play outside by the way."

Xu nodded with a smile and left.
