Volume B Section 71 One Day in Jiafu (II)
Wang Xifeng's mind moved slightly, glanced at Ping'er and Feng'er beside him, and said in a rambling voice: "Ping'er, you take Feng'er to clean up the upper room first, look at this, the Feng family and Baoyu are afraid that they will have to rest after eating,......
Ping'er knew that the two of them had something to say privately, so she nodded and took Feng'er with her.
"What's wrong?" Jia Lian was a little strange, she actually broke Ping'er apart, usually the two of them are not taboo to Ping'er, that is Sister Feng'er's intimate person.
"You said that this Baoyu really wants to go to the academy to study, can you read it?" Wang Xifeng motioned for Jia Lian to follow him into the big house, and when Jia Lian saw that Baoyu and Feng Ziying were also talking energetically, he followed Sister Feng into the house, "Why do you ask this?" β
"I see that the ancestors and aunts still hope that Baoyu can read books, at least take the exam to show talent or enter the national prison." Wang Xifeng unhurriedly untied the cloak of the outer cover, revealing a bewitching and plump body.
"I also asked Ziying just now, it's difficult." Jia Lian didn't think so much, "Baoyu is impetuous, and he can't settle his temperament, but this scripture is based on hard reading, he can't sit still, I'm afraid it's difficult to take the test for a show, I think Brother Zhu was much better than him back then, and he just took the test for a show, I think Baoyu can only go to the Guozijian in the end." β
"If you go to Guozijian, you can be regarded as a scholar." Wang Xifeng came with a sentence that was not salty or light.
Jia Lian looked at the other party, "What's wrong with you today, how are you so weird when you talk?" Guozijian is indeed a scholar, then you and I are also a scholar, and Brother Rong next door is also a scholar, but is that useful? Could it be that Baoyu Guozi can still go to Beijing to be a miscellaneous official outside Beijing? His temperament, even if he dared to go himself, the old ancestor and the old lady would not dare to let him go, right? β
In addition to the prison in the Guozi prison, other prisoners can also be officials, but this identity is too embarrassing, it is not as good as the real person, not to mention the miscellaneous officials, and they must go to other cities, and they can't stay in Beijing, even if they can't do it in Shuntianfu, let alone think about it.
Even so, there is still a queue, and there must be a relationship before the official can be awarded, so the sons and daughters of the nobles in Beijing still regard the status of the national prince as a kind of step to make a false title.
To put it bluntly, it's something that decorates the faΓ§ade, such as hanging the identity of a dragon forbidden lieutenant, and you don't even need to go to the point, which is the same as the same knowledge donated by Jia Lian, but it sounds a little better.
Jia Lian could have done it as long as he was in Guozijian for two more years, but he really didn't want to wait there, so he simply took the opportunity to spend some money and directly donated a fellow intellectual, anyway, he didn't feel that he was a scholar, and he was not embarrassed.
Wang Xifeng saw that his man was impatient, so he said softly: "But didn't Feng Dalang also say that Baoyu can go to Guozijian in the future, and then go to the academy to study?" β
Jia Lian smiled contemptuously, "Do you really think Baoyu can compare with Brother Keng?" Let me tell you, I also asked Brother Rong to inquire about Brother Keng'er's performance in the Guozijian, that person is really half a year like a day, studying seriously, if you want to say what virtue the Guozijian has, I know too well, but just like that, Brother Cong'er can study there steadily, and even Jiang Xijiu is full of praise for him, if you want me to say, even if Brother Cong'er doesn't go to Qingtan Academy to study, he can still be admitted to the exam, it's just a few years later,......"
Seeing that Wang Xifeng didn't seem to believe it, the corners of his mouth slightly downsized, but his body was twisted, and after eating a few glasses of wine, Jia Lian, who had a bit of alcohol, saw the woman's bumpy body under the fiery red satin jacket, and immediately felt a little something, stretched out his hand and pulled the woman into his arms, and one hand was hurriedly inserted into the placket and touched it randomly.
Wang Xifeng was caught off guard, he didn't expect his man to be so anxious, angry, funny and anxious, Baoyu and Feng Dalang were still eating and drinking over there, and Ping'er next door was still cleaning up the house with Feng'er, but this guy was crazy.
"Are you scared?" Wang Xifeng twisted his body to avoid the other party, pushing and shoving, and pretended to be annoyed: "If you do this again, I will call Ping'er in." β
"Am I still afraid of that little hoof? Annoyed master, I'll do it all of you today. Jia Lian didn't care, unbuttoned his clothes, revealing half of his bare chest, leaning on the head of the bed, and becoming more and more presumptuous.
"Okay, in this broad daylight, how can you be a gentleman like this? Baoyu and Feng Jialang are still over there, and they have no place to teach the children. Wang Xifeng saw that he couldn't hide, and he could only let the other party mess around for a while, and there were outsiders beside him, so he didn't dare to mess around with real knives and guns, "I'll talk to you about something, you haven't finished talking yet." β
While enjoying this rare warmth, Jia Lian also said: "You say that Qingtan Academy is much more humble and smaller than other academies, why is it so famous?" That's because the discipline is too strict, ordinary people can't bear it at all, even if they find a recommendation, they can't endure hardship, they don't have a sense of reading, they can't take the exam that month, and they are also eliminated back, rather than coming back like that, it's better not to be boring to talk about themselves, that sonar brother went to March, this year is over, but he has a great reputation, do you think you can do it without a little reading ability? The other three academies are similar, do you think Baoyu can endure this hardship? β
"So Baoyu went to Guozijian, if you want to go to the academy to study, you can't do it?" Wang Xifeng said thoughtfully.
"Baoyu can be like me in the Guozi Prison, it's not bad, I'm afraid that he will be like Brother Rong in the Guozi Prison, and he will learn badly with the people inside, isn't the second uncle the most worried about this?" Jia Lian said with a smile: "As for going to the academy to study, it's just to listen to it, so that everyone has a thought in their hearts." β
"Why did Brother Rong learn badly?" Wang Xifeng pouted, "You still drink and listen to dramas with others all day long, but you talk bad about others behind your back." β
"Hmph, you also cover up for him, he behaves in front of you all day long, when I can't see it?" Jia Lian pulled his hand out of Sister Feng'er's arms, and stood up with a sneer, "Ye has long wanted to find an opportunity to knock him, and then he wants such a toad to eat swan meat, be careful of his skin!" β
"Yo, I didn't expect our old man to become a vinegar jar." Wang Xifeng also stood up with a smile and tidied up his clothes, "Isn't he also your nephew?" Come to say hello to my aunt, that's normal, where is it as unbearable as you think? That's why you have these dirty things in your heart. β
Jia Lian ignored it and went out, leaving Sister Feng to sit alone on the edge of the bed.
She also saw a big battle today, and the whole house revolved around Baoyu's study, from the ancestor to the second master and aunt, no one dared to ignore this matter, and even his second uncle also mentioned it, which can't be said to have touched her at all.
This Rongfu is now at the helm of the ancestor, but the housekeeper is her own aunt, that is, the second room, the aunt handed over the housekeeper to herself, and on the surface she also returned it to the long house, she cherishes this opportunity very much, and takes great pains to treat this family well.
There are hundreds of people up and down in this house, and she has worked hard to manage up and down, and finally won the approval of her ancestors and aunt, and she also enjoys the pleasure of this power.
But she didn't know how long she would have that power.
Today, Baoyu can see some mysteries from the fact that he is reading.
In any case, whether it is the ancestor, the second master and the aunt, they all still hope that Baoyu will have a good background, in other words, to find a reading background, so that he can also have a serious reputation.
Now that Baoyu is ten years old, it will be said that it will be a matter of marrying a wife in another four or five years, once the bride enters the door, will the ancestor and aunt still hand over this stewardship to themselves?
It's all good, how can a niece have her own son, and it's probably right to let her daughter-in-law take care of it, Sister Feng knows this in her own heart.
Reasoning, his husband is the eldest son of the eldest son, and his daughter-in-law is a matter of course.
But his father-in-law and mother-in-law not only couldn't speak to their ancestors, but also had a bad relationship with themselves.
Even if she can get back this stewardship, I am afraid that her mother-in-law will firmly hold it in her own hands and will not leave a penny for herself, but no matter what, when her mother-in-law is old in the future, she will always have to hand it over to herself.
Sister Feng had long known that this Baoyu was the most favored in the family, but today's situation still made her realize this at a deeper level.
If this Baoyu can really read books, I'm afraid that this Rong Mansion will be completely and really changed, and if Baoyu becomes an official at that time, his daughter-in-law will probably have to take over the housekeeping power, and it will be impossible to hand it back, right?
Just like now, the reason why my aunt can occupy a dominant position in the Rong Mansion is not because the second uncle is in the Ministry of Industry, except that the ancestor likes the second uncle? His father-in-law can only eat a little bit of money with the false title of a first-class general.
Unless the family is separated.
But is it so easy to separate families? Sister Feng subconsciously shook her head, it must be after the old lady passed away to say that step.
Fortunately, now it seems that this Baoyu is afraid that he will not be able to read, at most, he will be a prisoner like his own man, so it will be almost the same, and things will be much easier in the future.
Just when Wang Xifeng was lying on the bed thinking about something, Jia Lian had already joined the battle group again.
Jia Baoyu didn't dare to drink more, but she persuaded Feng Ziying a lot, this time it was Jia Lian's turn, and after a few glasses of wine, Feng Ziying was really a little dizzy.
I felt that I had a lot of alcohol in my previous life, but in this life, the strength of this wine is far less than the liquor in my previous life, and I should be fine, but I never thought that I still overestimated my own alcohol and the weight of this sweet wine.
After drinking it, it was refreshing, and I felt that my consciousness was also very clear, but the strength that slowly seeped up made my body very comfortable, and I subconsciously wanted to lie down on the ground.
