Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

Ji and Daiyu left early and returned late.Although Ji's face looked tired, but the whole person seemed much calmer.Then, Ji made a request to Lin Hai: She should go to offer incense on the first day of every month.

Lin Hai was very happy to see Ji's calm down.Other things are up to Ji.He also told Mr. Ji that all the offering expenses at Tanzhe Temple were paid by the external account of the mansion, and Mrs. Ji did not need to use his private money any more.

Daiyu quietly said to Lin Hai who sent her back to the yard: "Father, Yan Yan also lit the ever-burning lamps for mother and younger brother."

Lin Hai smiled after hearing Daiyu's words, "It should."

"Father, Yan Yan heard that mother made a wish in front of the Buddha, saying that in the future, if the second brother has more sons, he can adopt one of them as the heir of the Ji family. Daddy agreed to mother's wish?"

"Yes. It's a pity that the Ji family will have no incense to worship in the future. Your second brother will adopt a son to the Ji family in the future, and he should be a grandson."

"Daddy, what about my younger brother? Will someone worship him in the future?"

"Of course there is. Daddy will divide up the property of the eldest son's family early on. Whoever adopts your younger brother's name as a son will inherit that property."

Daiyu smiled with satisfaction, the first wife, that's great.Mr. Zhou has already talked about the laws and customs about the inheritance of family property by family division.In this way, I am not afraid that no one will want to succeed.

Lin Hai looked at Daiyu who was smiling cutely, "Yanyan, for this property, there will be people vying for succession."

"Daddy will find a way."

Lin Hai smiled, of course he has a solution.For this matter, he made a special trip to find Jia Amnesty, and talked about adopting one of Daiyu's sons as Jia Min's grandson in the future.

Jia She laughed, "So, Min'er is probably the happiest." The younger sister may not like other people's sons.Her grandson and sister should be the happiest.

"Ru Hai, what about the family property, how do you divide it?" Jia Amnesty didn't want to get half of the niece's dowry.

"Enhou, I will divide the property of the eldest son's family early. As for whether you can talk about Tong Fansen, it's up to you. The second son is fine. Yan Yan's dowry has Min'er's share, and the ancestors of all dynasties It was saved for the daughter of the Lin family. If Yan Yan can have two sons, the net worth of these two children will be very rich in the future."

Lin Hai had a plan in mind, that the income from Yinjing and Chengjiu would be equal to that distributed to the first wife after 20 years.In addition to the bonus given by the Xue family, there will be a lot in the future for any house.

Jia Amnesty was satisfied when he heard that he was the eldest son. Lin Hai still has affection for his sister.Although Cheng Yin has a small family background, he is incomparable with the Lin family.He also has three sons and one daughter, and if he gets another share, each of them won't get much.Well, he can be persuaded in this respect.

"Ruhai, I agreed with you to talk to Fansen, but I can't guarantee whether it will work or not. I'm afraid he will say that you have three sons yourself, and you are missing a grandson."

"Enhou, the three of them don't have Min'er's blood relationship. You understand." Jia She could only beg Cheng Yin for this matter. "Brother, don't worry about it. We'll wait until his eldest son gives birth to two grandchildren."

"it is good."

After the family affairs were settled, Lin Hai devoted himself to court affairs.You must make achievements in politics in order to establish yourself in the hearts of today and officials.

Lin Hai made a note at the Xiaochao Meeting, suggesting that the imperial court establish righteous schools and develop literacy for the whole people. Scholars and Juren who are exempted from corvee will be obliged to teach children over six years old and other common people literacy five days a month. ", "Thousand-Character Essay", three or five years later, the preaching of the criminal law will be added.

Ever since Lin Hai took over the position of Minister of Rites, he had repeatedly brewed this matter in his heart.Because this year is not the year of the Grand Competition, there is no need to send officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Academy to inspect and assess the talents of grass-roots states and counties.Years later, he led his left and right servants to check the number and distribution of candidates and scholars in various states and counties across the country, and borrowed the population booklets of each state and county from the Ministry of Household Affairs.With preliminary data as support, all the staff in the Ministry of Rites were called to participate in the group discussion. After two months of discussion, they all agreed that this matter was feasible.

The only worry is that there are too few scholars in some remote areas, and in some counties, there are not many scholars, and there are not enough teachers.

For this reason, the Ministry of Rites discussed whether it is possible for Tongsheng in such a county to undertake the obligation of being a scholar, and the imperial court will reward him with exemption from corvee.Or there are such people who have been born as children and become teachers of righteous schools, and the court will give them the same tax-free treatment as scholars.

Lin Hai's memorandum aroused all the officials to participate in the discussion in Xiaochao. The Ministry of Officials believed that one of the previous assessments of local officials was to educate the people, so the Ministry of Officials supported Lin Hai's specific proposal.

Some officials from the Ministry of Punishments thought that it would be too late to teach the criminal law after three years. Can the "Criminal Law" also be used as a textbook for literacy?

Some officials from the Ministry of War laughed loudly. Doesn’t that mean that the Ministry of War can use 54 cuts of the army as literacy textbooks?

The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishments immediately came out, "The sage said, 'There is no distinction in teaching'. The sage, the minister agrees with the Ministry of War, and regards the 54 cuts of the army as a literacy textbook for soldiers and as a part of the assessment of generals."

Li Shangshu from the Household Department came out and asked, "Lord Lin, it is a good thing for the common people to be enlightened, but where will the expenses for Jianyi School be paid?"

""Book of Filial Piety", "Hundred Surnames", and "Thousand Characters" are all stored in the heads of scholars. Poor places do not need to prepare tables and chairs, buy books, and use carbon strips to write on wooden boards and walls. You can use sand trays to make paper and branches to make pens to learn to write."

As soon as Li Shangshu of the Ministry of Households heard that he did not need to pay from the Ministry of Households, he immediately expressed his appreciation for the memorial of the Ministry of Rites.

Lin Hai added a sentence at the end, "Sage, I believe that girls should also learn to read and write like boys. In this way, after ten or 20 years, these girls who can read and write are married and can enlighten their children at home. , Teaching children the above content can be described as getting twice the result with half the effort.”

There were not many people who opposed Lin Hai's memorial.Because the poorer the place, the lighter the boundaries between men and women, and daughters have to live like men.In rich places, there is naturally a way to establish free schools for women, and invite female teachers to teach.

There are voices against girls' literacy, and they are all rejected by "Meng's mother teaching children".The officials of the Xiaochaohui, who doesn't understand that the mother is literate and understands the truth, and the children educated will be better.But for girls, some people suggest to study "Nvvvirtue", "Four Books for Nvv" and so on.

Gu An stepped forward and said: "Sage, this dynasty governs the country with filial piety, and the "Book of Filial Piety" is something that everyone in the world should learn. Girls learn the "Book of Filial Piety" first, and they will teach their children uphold filial piety in the future." "Hundred Surnames" " and "Thousand-Character Essay" are just learning to recognize characters. It is also okay to study "Nvvirtue" and "Four Books for Women" after these studies. But according to Chen, it is better to learn the criminal law first and teach children what not to do. "

Jia Amnesty came out: "Who is going to teach "Four Virtues" and "Four Books for Women"? Scholars or Juren?"

Silent.

The memorial of the Ministry of Rites was passed in court.For the rest of the specific implementation, the Ministry of Officials will refer to the regulations of the Ministry of Rites and assign them to grassroots officials for implementation.And the officials of the Ministry of Rites will add this item in accordance with the regulations of the Ministry of Officials to the evaluation of scholars at the grassroots level.

After attending the Xiaochao meeting today, I called Lin Hai to the inner study.

"Like the sea, no courtesy. Sit down." Today, he is very happy. He does not need to spend more money on the court. By virtue of educating the people and making them literate, he will naturally get the credit for Wenzhi when the conclusion of the century-old coffin is finalized.For thousands of years, he would not give in to any previous emperor.

"This memorial is very good. How did Ruhai think of this?"

"To tell you the truth, Geinchen's eldest daughter first taught the little girls in her yard to read, and recently the youngest sons of the minister like to play in the courtyard of the minister's eldest daughter. Those literate little girls have all become masters, and then teach them to read and write. other people."

The sage nodded, and said in praise, "If the sea has enlightened women, they all contribute to the community. They should be commended. Fansen, what do you think should be commended?"

Cheng Yin smiled, "How about a marriage from a saint?"

Lin Hai saluted upwards, and the saint looked suspiciously at the two of them.

Cheng Yin said with a smile: "Saint, I went to Rong Guohou's mansion last year to have a drink with Ru Hai as the chief examiner. The wine was so refreshing that Ru Hai accepted my marriage proposal as the second son."

It was his intention to ask Cheng Yin to go to Rongguo Mansion to thank Lin Hai today. Seeing that Cheng Yin was able to tie Lin Hai up for him like this, he immediately laughed heartily, "Good marriage, good marriage." Bachelor, wrote the imperial decree for the marriage of Cheng and Lin's family.

Lin Hai and Cheng Yin hurriedly kowtowed up to thank the Holy Grace.

"Ruhai, I heard that the wine you brew is very good. When you marry a daughter, don't forget me as a matchmaker."

"Chen Wei likes this way. After decades of indulging in it, I can see a little bit of smallness. Ashamed, ashamed, it's not worth mentioning."

"Who doesn't have any hobbies, wine, sex and wealth, Aiqing chose the first one." Lin Hai made fun of Lin Hai today, Lin Hai smiled and accepted it embarrassingly.

Lin Hai and Cheng Yin went out of the inner study together, both of them felt relieved to be able to marry today.Cheng Yin's thoughts, heard his wife and daughter talk about the appearance of Lin Hai's eldest daughter, although she is young, she is also extremely beautiful.The year before last, the empress and the sage chose the daughter-in-law of a third-rank official to be the eldest prince's side concubine, which made the officials who had no intention of clinging to them feel anxious.Right now the second prince is almost 15 years old, and choosing a concubine is a matter of two or three years.At that time, I will ask for an exemption from the election, so that the narrow-minded Imakami will remember that it would be bad to rob him of his daughter-in-law.

Lin Hai felt more at ease. He got engaged to Daiyu early in order to avoid the 13-year-old draft.Daiyu grew up day by day and became more and more beautiful. If the royal family cared about her, she would be in trouble.Now that I have a marriage gift, it is good for my daughter and good for myself.The literacy campaign that advocates universal literacy can receive the will of marriage, killing two birds with one stone.

Today, he is in a good mood even when he is alone in the study room grading papers. Cheng Yin is willing to work hard to do things for himself.Lin Hai's proposal to educate the common people will see great results in ten or eight years.It is a feat of merit in the present and benefit in the future.Thinking that Lin Hai is now the elder of the pavilion, and he promised the eldest daughter to Cheng Yin's second son, it is a bit wronged by the Lin family father and daughter.When will we find a suitable opportunity to make up for Lin Hai and his daughter?That was Enhou's own niece.

This marriage must have been facilitated by Enhou.Enhou's love is owed again.I will write it down in my heart today, and I will find a chance to make up for it in the future!

Cheng Yin's second son's marriage is like this, what about his eldest son's marriage?Let him decide?Shake your head today, let's see again.It's a pity that my second son is still weak, and I have to choose a prince and concubine in two years, otherwise I can win over another important minister earlier.

If I could win the Nine Frontier Generals and important court officials into my arms sooner, I would be considered to have really won the throne, and I would really have a promise.

Putting down the imperial pen today, thinking of the people around Prince Zhongjing and Prince Zhongshun, they pressed their foreheads and felt a little depressed. It is hard to understand that the emperor is still there.When will they be able to recruit or replace all those who have held military power around them?

Ji led the children and received the servant who announced the decree.

After hearing the decree, the Ji family was happy for Daiyu, and asked Lin Cheng to reward and entertain the servant who came to proclaim the decree.He took Daiyu's hand and said, "Yanyan, your father chose this good marriage for you, and now you have a marriage bestowed by a sage, it's really honorable."
