"Brother Bao, if your brother Huan'er can study, get the entrance examination, and become an official, but you are living like this at home, then when Brother Huan'er comes back in the future, how should you see your brother Huan? If you look like a brother and a brother, will you feel that you are a head shorter, and will you feel uncomfortable? How will your mother and your aunt feel? And what should the old lady who holds you in her hands all day long for fear of falling, and is afraid of melting in her mouth? Have you thought about it? ”

Feng Ziying stood still, her tone was indifferent, her eyes were cold, and she looked at Jia Baoyu, who was a little at a loss.

"If your mother and your aunt quarrel over trivial matters, and talk about you, will your heart, your mother's heart, feel uncomfortable? Well, do you think that's a big possibility? There is also Huan Lao who became an official three days later, and he wants to ask Uncle Shi for which girl in your house to be a concubine, do you think Uncle Shi agrees or not? ……”

casually listed several possibilities, all of which made Jia Baoyu sweat coldly in this winter, stammering, and speechless.

He had never considered all this that Brother Feng said.

Jia Lan is just that, although he can't say how much emotion he has, after all, he can't even remember the appearance of Brother Zhu, but Jia Lan is also a son-in-law, and he is too young to think of going there.

As for the little fart child of Huan Laosan, he looked obscene, and he followed his ass all day long, thinking about finding himself and his third sister to get some pocket money, and he could like to smile when he gave him a few pieces of silver, and he could read?

But what if it reads out?

Who can guarantee that he won't be able to read a book?

Everyone in the house thinks they can read books, but only they know how much they hate reading.

Hasn't this Brother Feng never been optimistic that he can study? But now?

In the famous Qingtan Academy, even his father, uncle, and even mother and ancestors often talk about him, and they are all embarrassed and emotional, can you believe it?

His face was pale, sweating like pulp, Jia Baoyu's lips were a little blue, and his originally handsome face was as if he had lost his soul at this time, and his whole body was like a yellow leaf swaying on a dead branch in the wind.

patted Jia Baoyu's shoulder with some pity, Feng Ziying looked like a person who had come over, and said gently: "Brother Bao, think about it, whose parents are not good for their children?" Uncle Shi is also doing this for your good, otherwise why do you need to recruit your brother for the New Year to give you advice? ”

It's like a drowning person grabbing a life-saving straw, no, it should be a small boat, Jia Baoyu grabbed Feng Ziying's arm: "Brother Feng, you can endure greatly, there are many ways, there must be a way to solve these problems, you help me, help me come up with ideas, I really don't want to read, as soon as I see those things in the "Four Books and Five Classics", I have a headache,......"

Feng Ziying really wanted to say, then what do you want to do? But seeing the other party's expectant gaze, he was a little unbearable, and thought for a while before saying: "Brother Bao, let's do it, I'll see Uncle Shi later, listen to Uncle Shi's thoughts first, and then we'll discuss, okay?" ”

Nodding again and again like a chicken pecking rice, the current Jia Baoyu really regards Feng Ziying as a life-saving straw, and the previous dissatisfaction and resentment towards Feng Ziying have long been left behind at this time, as for the future, then two words, at least now he is grateful to Feng Ziying.

Seeing Jia Zheng standing in the middle of Rongxi Hall with his hands behind his back, Feng Ziying bowed deeply after stepping into the threshold, "The little nephew has seen Uncle Zhengshi." ”

"Ziying is here?" Jia Zheng was slightly reserved and raised his hand, "It's all my own family, why be so polite, sit, sit." ”

At the top of this Rongxi Hall are two red sandalwood official hat chairs, which look like old things, the backs of the black armchairs are polished smooth as mirrors, and on both sides are two Shun Nanmu chairs.

Behind it is the ink dragon painting is magnificent, and the bronze tripod and the secret color porcelain vase on the red sandalwood carving case reflect each other, which is really magnificent.

The ground is paved with Suzhou gold bricks, which is the atmosphere of everyone's family.

These gold bricks are only now gradually opening up to the people, and they still need the approval of the Ministry of Industry to be allowed to use them 20 years ago, and the Jia family must have obtained special approval from the imperial court back then.

With this decoration alone, it is not comparable to people like the Feng family, the emperor gave a plaque, the prince wrote a couplet, and these are all antiquities and old things, just take one out and be afraid that it can be worth eight thousand taels of silver, anyone who walks here to take a look, they all think that the Jia family is afraid to be rich and noble for ten thousand years, right?

Sitting down, it was naturally a greeting of warm greetings, and then asking about daily life in the academy, and the topic began to get to the point.

Feng Ziying had actually guessed Jia Zheng's thoughts.

Jia Baoyu has to go to study, but his temperament is there, how to read, how to read, in order to be able to read, to read, and not to be like his brother to make his heart haggard and finally die.

This is also the most troublesome thing for everyone in the Jia family.

Jia Baoyu crapped in the chair beside him like an angry quail, he knew that he couldn't interject on such topics, and he could only attract his father's scolding if he interjected rashly, and only Brother Feng could probably speak in front of his father, and his father could listen to it.

"Ziying, I won't tell you, Uncle Shi has always hoped that there would be a decent scholar in the family in his life, and your eldest brother Zhu was also a ...... back then" Speaking of his eldest son, Jia Zheng's eyes were also a little moist, but it was a pity that there was a reading seed.

"......, you have also seen Baoyu's current situation, the day before yesterday, his uncle also said that Baoyu should go to study, but his body and heart, Uncle Shi is really embarrassed, you studied in Datong a few years ago, and after returning to Beijing, you studied in Guozijian, and now you have gone to Qingtan Academy to study, you help Uncle Shi come up with an idea to see how Baoyu should study next?"

didn't say what Baoyu should do, but directly said how to read, which set the sex, and Jia Baoyu next to him immediately turned white again.

"Uncle Shi, the little nephew understands what you mean, Baoyu must go to study, and the Jia family can't do without a scholar,......" Feng Ziying pointed out the topic at once, Jia Zheng nodded again and again, and sure enough, he was a perceptive guy, and he understood what he meant at once.

"Then the little nephew can ask Uncle Shi what he expects from Baoyu's study?" Feng Ziying needs to determine the strategy according to the other party's requirements, since people are so sincere in asking for advice, it is impossible for him to refuse the door, come up with ideas, give a strategy, and win the favor of the Jia family, it is not a bad thing, but there are still girls living in other people's homes.

One sentence again asked the key point.

Jia Zheng glanced at Baoyu, who lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him, and sighed: "Ziying, they are not outsiders, and Uncle Shi doesn't hide it from you, Uncle Shi hopes that Baoyu can study hard like his brother, from showman to lifter, but his heart is uncertain, and Uncle Shi has no bottom in his heart." ”

Feng Ziying nodded, this is actually no expectation, I just hope that Jia Baoyu can go to study, like Jia Zhu, to take a show, even if it is to give an explanation to the upper and lower levels of the family, what if the Wenqu star favors the Jia family, Jia Baoyu "accidentally" admits to a lifter?

Feng Ziying pretended to think and groaned silently, Jia Zheng did not urge, and for a while, the Rongxi Hall was also silent, only Jia Baoyu's slightly rapid breathing could be heard clearly.

"Uncle Shi, since you asked about the little nephew, the little nephew can only say some of his own opinions."

"Ziying, you just say it, don't worry." Jia Zheng nodded.

"Since Baoyu's reading is the trend of the times, it is always necessary to read, but he is too young, and his body is not as rough and durable as the little nephew who comes and goes in the wind and rain, so the little nephew thinks that Baoyu should first ask Baoyu to hire a special tutor at home, or set up a private school in the house to study, of course, the tutor must be invited, and he can't fool around,......"

Feng Ziying's words made Jia Zheng nod slightly, it is not realistic to let Jia Baoyu, who has just turned ten years old, go out to study now, then the old lady and his wife really have to fight with themselves, Jia Zheng is concerned about the next step.

"Now all academies basically only admit students over the age of fourteen, well, twelve or thirteen years old like the little nephew are special cases, the little nephew said before, I am also used to working in the border area, the body is strong, it is estimated that few people think that the little nephew is only thirteen years old,......"

Jia Zheng also laughed, indeed, Feng Ziying's skeleton stood there, coupled with his bearing, no one would doubt it when he was fifteen or sixteen years old.

"So the little nephew pondered that it would be better to let Baoyu study at home for three or four years, if it works, find a chance to enter the academy again, but Qingtan Academy is too hard, and it may not be suitable for Baoyu, but Tonghui and Chongzheng Academy also have a chance,...... Feng Ziying thought for a while and said: "If it is not appropriate to enter the academy at that time, you can still consider entering the national eunuch, if the shadow eunuch is not good, you might as well ask Lord Wang to ask Your Majesty to give a favor." ”

According to the regulations of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Beijing officials must have four civil officials and three military officials and above to have a son and nephew to be a shadow eunuch, otherwise the emperor can only be specially gracious.

Wheel official character, Jia Zheng is not qualified, and Jia Yu is enough, but Jia Lian should have used this opportunity, so if Jia Baoyu wants to be in prison at that time, he can only take the road of grace, but with Wang Ziteng's current state, this is not a problem.

Or go to the prison, it would be too embarrassing, and it would be impossible for the Jia family to accept this way.

Of course, the best place to go is to go to the academy.

Feng Ziying didn't point it out, that is, any of the four major academies, if you don't get the Xiucai exam, or get the status of a supervisor, you won't accept it, it's impossible for you to go to the academy to study and then take the Xiucai exam, it would be too embarrassing for the academy.

Jia Zheng and Jia Baoyu should know this, that is to say, if you want to enter the academy to study, then at least you have to take the test for a talent and fame, or go to mix with the identity of a shadow prison.

Jia Zheng pondered for a long time, and finally nodded.

It should be said that this is the best idea Feng Ziying gave him, if Jia Baoyu can be admitted to Xiucai in the next three or four years, then everyone will be happy, and he can do everything he can to go to the academy to study, if he can't go to Qingtan, Chongzheng, Tonghui and Diecui can be regarded as one of the four major academies, and he has a name and a fan.

It's really not good, take the shade prison road, find a national prison student, learn from Feng Ziying, and then enter the academy, of course, it may take a lot of effort, not everyone can have the opportunity and courage of Feng Ziying.

Seeing the plump, tall and elegant woman in front of her coming to pour tea for herself, Feng Ziying couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

This Zhong Ming Dingshi's hairpin home is indeed different, just the water girl in front of me is afraid that she can't find a person in the whole house who can top it, the water red silk jacket plus the pinched blue satin vest, the waist is tied with a moon white Hangzhou silk sweat scarf, a duck egg face is dignified and beautiful, and a few small freckles fall on the white swaying face is actually a little more playful.

Feng Ziying didn't notice that Jia Zheng and Jia Baoyu were stunned when they saw this pouring girl, Jia Zheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, while Jia Baoyu was startled and almost made a sound, but immediately kept silent.

This girl had been standing outside the door before, but it was not far away, Feng Ziying didn't care, she didn't expect to pour tea here, her expression was neither humble nor arrogant, her hands and feet were skillful, her movements were smart and flexible, she was obviously used to it, coupled with this posture and bearing, so it could make Feng Ziying feel a lot of emotion.

It's just that after looking at it twice, I feel a little familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while, he has been here three times in this Rongguo Mansion, but he has seen a lot of warblers and warblers, but that time it is not easy to see much, only a general impression.

Seeing that the woman was going gracefully after pouring water, Feng Ziying didn't care, so she gossiped with Jia Zheng.

"Coming, coming, Ancestor, Sister Mandarin Duck is back." A girl's voice sounded outside the courtyard of Lao Yuanjia's mother.

"Coming back? Hurry up and let her in. Shi Lao Taijun was still in good spirits, sitting on the kang and hurriedly beckoned the little maid to let the mandarin duck in.

The room was warm, and Yingying Yanyan sat in a large number of places, surrounding the old lady.

Sitting below, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Li Kun and Wang Xifeng, surrounded by several girls, and the maids all stood behind their own girls, whispering.

Daiyu couldn't help but stretch her neck and look out, she already knew that Brother Feng had entered the mansion, but it would definitely not be the turn to meet at such an occasion at this time, Second Brother Bao greeted him in person, and his uncle personally saw him in Rongxi Hall, which was enough to show that this must be the right thing.

Later, she learned that her uncle was looking for Brother Feng to learn about the situation in the academy, and it seemed that he was also going to study for Second Brother Bao in the future.

Thinking of this, Daiyu couldn't help but want to know what kind of idea Brother Feng could give to his uncle, during this time, the old ancestor and aunt were worried about this, and the uncle who rarely got angry also got angry several times.

A servant broke a vase, which was a scolding in the past days, but that day he was ordered by his uncle to drag it down and beat him severely.

If there is no result in this matter, I am afraid that the whole house will not be at peace.
