[Red Mansion] Mother Jia has a paralyzed face

Jia Hu didn't get excited after hearing what her cousin said, "Grandmother won't lie to me, I have already learned half of "Hundred Surnames" from my husband, and the husband said that Hu'er studies hard, and I can fly kites with my grandmother in summer." !"

"Hmph~" Jia Zhen was not excited anymore.

Throwing down the spinning top, ignoring Jia Hu, turning around and running out of Jia Hu's house, the servants followed behind him worriedly.

But Jia Zhen ran to the upper room where Jia Mu and others were, and threw herself into her mother's arms, and asked aggrievedly: "Mother, why can Brother Hu play with toys and fly kites?!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zheng reprimanded her son, "Zhen'er, don't mess around."

Zhang Rui saw it, and quickly called Jia Zhen over, glanced at Brother Hu, who was following Didian'er, and said to Jia Zhen with a smile: "If Zhen'er has anything to tell my aunt, my aunt will make the decision for you."

Jia Zhen knew that her aunt was of a high seniority, and her mother didn't dare to scold him in front of her aunt, so she began to complain with her little mouth: "Auntie, Zhen'er doesn't like reading, but my mother makes me study all day long. If I can't recite it, I will be punished, and Zhen'er also wants to play, and also wants to fly kites with her uncle and grandma."

When Zhang Rui heard it, he didn't say who was right and who was wrong, and asked softly, "How many hours does Zhen'er need to study?"

"For two hours, if I can't recite it, I will be fined not to play, and Zhen'er has no time to play." The child became even more aggrieved when he said that, and couldn't help but pouted.

When Zhang Rui heard this, he almost laughed out loud. He had never memorized his emotions before, and he was punished every day!

Coughed and held back the overflowing laughter, and looked at the bear child lovingly, "Then Zhen'er told the uncle, are you really unable to learn or don't you want to learn? Your cousin can only memorize books if he knows how to learn." He was allowed to play, and he asked his uncle to help you, what would Zhener give in exchange?"

"I already know how to recite three hundred thousand!" In fact, Jia Zhen has already learned it, but she has never been able to recite it well, and her mind is never on studying. It is a bit vain to say this.

Zhang Rui saw that he still didn't understand what he was guilty of, so he didn't expose it, and said with a smile: "Then when Brother Hu can memorize "Hundred Surnames", my uncle and grandma will test Zhen'er for three hundred thousand. If Zhen'er I have recited it, and your cousin also asked Zhener to fly a kite, how about I take you to the Zhuangzi to play?"

"Really?!" The two little dolls looked at Zhang Rui in surprise.

Nodding firmly, "It's hard to follow my uncle and grandma's words."

Jia Zhen thought that it would be a long time before Brother Hu finished learning "Hundred Surnames", and he was sure he could memorize it, so she patted her chest and agreed.

The two cousins ​​who were still arguing at first were happy, and they didn't want to stay in the house, so they ran out to play again.

Zhang Rui shook her head with a broken smile, then turned around and said to Mrs. Zheng: "Be patient too, Zhen'er is still young~"

"My niece and daughter-in-law are also looking forward to Jackie Chan." Zheng smiled wryly. Her husband is outstanding, so she naturally had high expectations for her child, but the child did not understand her painstaking efforts.

"As elders, we all hope that our descendants will become talents, but like Zhen'er's father, all the honored nobles in Kyoto can't find a second one. He simply has a hereditary title, and the most important thing is virtue. My sons are not promising, I know I can't force it, anyway, if you can keep the family business, there will always be promising children~"

Zhang Rui also saved face for Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng, so he didn't directly say that the two of them are stupid and prodigal, but people have to face the reality. People do have different talents. I guess it won't be too bad. Jia Zhen will not talk about talent first. If she really doesn't like studying, let him keep it.

It was also in this environment that Zhang Rui realized first-hand the difference brought about by status, which is a difficult gap to bridge.

After all, it is difficult to get a noble child from a cold, because in the modern era of openness, there is no way to completely smooth out the gap caused by status. Not only the starting line, but also experience and experience, etc., are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Not to mention that in ancient times, the Jia family was originally an echelon of nobles and nobles. Even if one day the descendants of the descendants were down and out, they would live better than many poor people. They have been rich for more than two generations.

But when it comes to the problem of entering school, it seems that the Jia family's family education is also a place to hide in the Dream of Red Mansions. Although I don't know what the situation is now, there is one thing, the Jia family's imperial examinations are indeed very few.

Thinking of this, when Jia Jing came to bid farewell and returned home, Zhang Rui said earnestly: "I promised the old people who will be released, so that their children and grandchildren can go home to study, and Jing nephew will help me to go home when he has nothing to do. Take a look at the family school. If there are too many students, there will be not enough gentlemen. Why don't you hire two more educated gentlemen? Your third uncle is getting old now, so let him take care of the family school. Don't work too hard. As for this gentleman I'll come out to repair the bunch."

"My nephew is the patriarch of the Jia family. Of course, Mr. Shu Xiu must pay his respects."

It’s up to you, anyway, the focus is not Shuxiu, how much money you can make this year, Zhang Rui just wants to see if there is anything that needs to be sorted out, if she really teaches two Jinshi, then she will make money .

When Jia Jing's family came back, Jia Zhen excitedly began to recite three hundred thousand. Jia Jing was surprised when he first learned that his son had made progress.

In the evening, when he heard his wife say that it was due to his aunt, Jia Jing couldn't help but sigh: "After all, it's my aunt who will educate the children and grandchildren!"

Feeling grateful for Jia's mother's guidance to her son, Jia Jing planned to make an appointment with Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng to visit the first school in the future.

Jia Amnesty was not interested in this, so he declined directly. Jia Jing knew his temperament and didn't get angry, so Jia Jing and Jia Zheng were together, without notifying Jia Dairu that he had come to visit the family school unannounced.

The gatekeeper recognized the two masters and told Jia Dairu that he wanted to go in, but Jia Jing refused, so Shi Shiran walked in.

When the two arrived outside the courtyard where the private school was used for students, they heard the sound of reading aloud. Jia Zheng nodded in satisfaction and said, "Dear cousin, it seems that the children of our Jia family still study hard."

Jia Jing only nodded, but he didn't agree with Jia Zheng. Instead, he took the lead and approached, observed the students' status through the window, and gradually frowned.

Jia Zheng was puzzled at first, walked over and stood behind Jia Jing, and saw that the third uncle had already started explaining the meaning, but only one out of ten of the students under the seat listened carefully, most of them were doing small movements, or Drowsy, it's really degrading!

Jia Zheng dislikes people who slack off in school. Looking at these children now, he is so angry that the mustache he just grew is blowing out.

Seeing the unexpected expressions of the two, a servant cleverly invited the young master, so Jia Ao, Jia Dairu's only son, who was studying behind closed doors, rushed over.

Seeing the expressionless faces of the two elder brothers in the Second Mansion of Ning Rongguo, he wondered: "The two elder brothers did not entertain well when they came over, this... this..." Obviously he also knew what kind of state the family school was like, He is really not a person who can speak, and he is sweating and at a loss for a while.

Jia Zheng was still angry, but Jia Jing was the first to comfort Jia Ao with a smile on his face: "We have nothing to do, how is Cousin Ao doing now? Don't work too hard, your body is important."

"What Brother Jing said is true."

Jia Dairu also heard the voice from outside, saw the two nephews of Lizhi coming, hurriedly asked the students to study by themselves, and walked out with a smile on their faces.

Even if this Jia Dairu was a concubine's uncle, Jia Jing and Jia Zheng are not satisfied with this school, but they are elders after all, they still greeted each other, and then went to the main hall for tea at his invitation.

Jia Dairu didn't feel that there was any problem in his class at all, and he kept talking to the two of them with a smile, with the self-restraint of an elder in his tone.

Jia Zheng was very angry, but his seniority is not good enough to blame his uncle here, but Jia Jing was more tactful than him, and his handling of things was more mature. Jing went to visit her, my aunt was worried that teaching these naughty children would affect your health, so she told Jing to find two more gentlemen."

Jia Dairu's expression changed when he heard that, originally a concubine was not valued and had no status. At the time when his father passed away, he didn't get any family property. Please other gentlemen, how dare you take the elder Joe.

I feel uncomfortable but still have a smile on my face: "My body is very healthy, and there is no problem in teaching the children in the clan. I know that my knowledge is limited, but that's all I can do for the clan. I have always been Do your best..."

Jia Jing watched enough of the flattery on his face, and then replied in surprise: "It's because Jing can't speak, that's why third uncle misunderstood the meaning of respect, sir, firstly, it's for the Jia family members, and secondly, it's also for you to relax. Some, when the time comes to teach enlightenment and let Mr. come, you can just be in charge of family studies, shame on you, and you will be troubled."

That is to say, he didn't take his position directly, nor did he cut off his money. Jia Dairu, who was relieved, smoothed his goatee twice before he sat down firmly on the chair.

……

Leaving the family school, Jia Jing glanced at the gate in retrospect, and said leisurely: "It seems that I will find Mr. as soon as possible."

"Third Uncle didn't fulfill his duty as a teacher at all, why is my cousin so polite to him?"

"After all, it's the elders of the Jia family. I'm the head of the clan. I can't cool the hearts of the people." Jia Jing shook his head and instructed Jia Zheng: "Cun Zhou, you are straight, but after sunset, the Ministry of Industry, you still have to treat the chief executives in those years." Be more courteous, these people may seem like little people, but they have a lot of tricks and know-how, and they will still make you suffer."

It's not that Jia Zheng is ignorant of good and bad, he immediately accepted his cousin's guidance sincerely, "I wrote it down for Zhou Zhou."

"The affairs of the officialdom are more complicated than those of the clan. It took me a long time to figure it out. In the future, we brothers will support each other even more."

"It's natural."
