Ning Wangfu, in a certain side room, Steward Wang looked at the pile of account books placed in front of him, and a little sadness appeared on his fat face. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As a steward who specializes in taking care of the palace's business outside the country, he has a habit of thoroughly checking the ledger once a month.

In this way, he can understand the monthly income of the palace, compared with previous years, whether it is up or down, and where is the reason.

And this is also the problem he is struggling with.

It is almost the end of the year, and the total profit from the business outside the palace is only half of last year, and two months later, I am afraid that it will only be seventy percent at most, which is considered his dereliction of duty.

If the prince is to blame, I am afraid that his position as a housekeeper will not be kept.

Fortunately, Ruyilu and the liquor workshop are already in operation, and the shops in the city will be able to officially open tomorrow, and these two businesses are his greatest hopes.

But how much profit he can make, he is not sure in his heart.

In case of......

Steward Wang was anxious in his heart, and when he was bored, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a tiger head and tiger brain, about ten years old, ran in.

The bear child's little face is still a little immature, but it is seven or eight points similar to Steward Wang, especially the round body shape, and a round face is even more godlike, he ran to Steward Wang, stretched out a little fat hand, and said: "Daddy, give me a few pennies, I want to buy sugar gourds to eat." ”

Steward Wang was distressed in his heart, and suddenly saw the round face of the bear child, and a nameless fire rose in his heart, and scolded: "Eat, eat, eat, just know how to eat, look at what you have eaten!" ”

The bear child was still thinking about going out and trying the "sugar snowball" launched by Liu's rock sugar gourd a few days ago, and heard a few friends say that the sugar snowball was more delicious than the sugar gourd, and he couldn't wait to run in and ask his father for money, and he was reprimanded for no reason, and he was stunned there for a moment.

"Have you memorized all the lessons that Mr. taught you?" Seeing the bear child standing there stupidly, Steward Wang was even more angry in his heart, and asked with a straight face.

He is not the material for reading, he can be admitted to Xiucai, and then he has been repeatedly frustrated, and he has made an errand in the palace, for more than ten years, step by step to the current position, although those people do not have the nourishment of his life, but reading is the right way in the end, thinking that his unfinished dream is handed over to his son to complete, who would have thought that this bear child has no interest in reading, but can not forget to eat at any time...... It's really his own son.

"Back, back." The bear child still has some eyesight, and he knows that his current father can't be messed with, so he stammered.

"Recite it and I'll listen to it."

I don't know what happened to my dad today, and suddenly wanted to test his homework, the bear child was glad in his heart, fortunately he memorized those twists and turns yesterday, when he recited it, although he stumbled, but fortunately, there was no mistake.

After listening to the bear child's recital, Steward Wang's face finally improved.

But there are some doubts in my heart, when he was taking the school exam before, the bear child was not able to recite it completely, what happened this time? Evil?

I thought that if he couldn't memorize it, he reprimanded him and warned him to study hard, and not to think only about playing and eating all day long...... Unexpectedly, the bear child played extraordinarily, and the words of admonition he had prepared suddenly became useless.

The good plan was interrupted, Steward Wang's face rose again, he pulled a piece of white paper, picked up a pen and wrote a few lines on it, handed it to the bear child, and said: "Learning is endless, don't be complacent, go and memorize these few sentences, and I'll check it again in the evening." ”

When I was on the mountain a few days ago, the lady asked the children to carry these things, and Steward Wang heard that his ears were almost calloused that day, and he inadvertently wrote down those few words.

At this time, just use these few sentences to send the bear child, at least before he recites it, he will not bother himself.

"Go, go......" Shopkeeper Wang waved his hand and said impatiently.

The bear child walked out of the room with the paper in a daze, and the ten-year-old little head couldn't fully understand why he obviously memorized it, and what he got was not a reward, but a punishment for continuing to endorse......

The bear child, who was tricked by his father, sat under the eaves of the wing room with a sluggish face, looking up at the sky, showing a loveless expression.

After a long time, the bear child sighed leisurely, picked up the paper in his hand, he had been to private school for a few years, he was already able to read a lot of words, under the eaves, soon there was a voice.

"Disciple rules, sage training, the first filial piety, the second sincere faith.

Pan love the public, and kindness, there is spare strength, then learn the ......, alas, ......"

The voice has the crispness and agility of a child, but the sighs that are sometimes mixed with it are a little out of place with the atmosphere at this time.

…………

At the same time, a middle-aged man with a majestic face walked out of King Ning's study, rubbed his eyebrows, and the cold autumn wind blew, which made him sober up a lot.

"Your Excellency, I'll send you home?" An old man in a butler's uniform walked over and said respectfully.

The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "No need, the official of the palace still knows him, and he can go back by himself." ”

When the old man heard this, he no longer insisted, and watched the figure of the middle-aged man disappear before turning around and retreating.

At this time, the middle-aged man walking in the palace showed some sadness on his face.

As the prefect of Qing'an Prefecture, he is in charge of the affairs of the prefecture, and in two months, it will be the time for him to return to Beijing to report on his work, and the imperial court will evaluate his political achievements, including the situation of Qing'an Prefecture's population, land reclamation, taxation, food, public security, education, etc., and will be raised and punished accordingly.

He was not worried about land reclamation and taxation, but this education alone really worried him.

The students of Qing'an Prefecture did not perform well in this year's scientific examinations, and the number of scholars in the academy was far less than in previous years, so his achievements in education were greatly reduced.

Although progress in other aspects can completely cover up the lack of education, there are still some things that cannot be passed on the face.

After all, Qing'an Mansion is the largest city in Jingguo except Kyoto, and the number of students is second only to Kyoto.

Thinking about this in his heart, when he passed by a certain wing, he suddenly heard a burst of intermittent children's voices.

"Disciple rules, sage training, the first filial piety, the second sincere faith.

Alas, ......, the pan loves the public, and the relatives, if they have spare energy, they will learn the ......, sugar snowball, sugar snowball, sugar snowball, alas......"
