Chapter 216: School Begins (Part I)

Baochai smiled with relief, it turned out that Baoyu said, standing elegantly by the desk, holding the edge of the desk with her slender hand, and talking to Jia Huan: "Have you been resting at home for the past few days?" ”

Jia Huan nodded and said, "Yes." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoAs soon as the Lantern Festival is over, there will be no banquets. In the morning, I will go to the clan school to prepare for the start of school. In the afternoon, I worked as a scribe at home. ”

Baochai said softly: "You are outside, you should drink less wine, it is not good for your health." ”

Jia Huan's heart warmed slightly, looking at Baochai's bright apricot eyes, as bright as a bright jewel, and said, "Sister Xie Bao cares." I don't drink much at home, but I have to drink it on some social occasions. ”

Baochai smiled, turned his head and staggered his gaze, his red lips opened lightly, and asked, "Haven't you straightened out the things in the clan science?" ”

Jia Huan said: "Where is it smooth?" It will take at least two or three months. Originally, the teacher of ethnology was my classmate who served as a temporary teacher. I also need to find a tutor to teach the children of the Jia family. ”

The small talk between Jia Huan and Baochai went on so casually. It's all trivial, tiny everyday things.

Occasionally, care for each other for a few words. It's as if there is a stream, which flows quietly into each other's hearts with time in the afternoon under the mild winter sun, with a slight sweetness, which makes people happy and happy. I don't want to end the small talk at this point.

Jia Huan could feel that his relationship with Sister Bao was a little closer.

While chatting, a little maid opened the door curtain, and saw Daiyu come in with the big maid Zijuan, and saw Jia Huan and Baochai chatting at the desk, talking together. Xiangling, Ying'er, and Ruyi were copying books, and they couldn't help laughing: "You two masters are lazy and chatting, let the maids copy books." They say that you are generous, but I don't think so. ”

Jia Huan and Baochai recovered from their chatter. Jia Huan was in a very good mood, and when he saw Daiyu coming in, he felt a little strange in his heart, and got up to greet him, "Sister Lin is here." He came out from behind the desk with Baochai and talked to Lin Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu smiled and nodded, "Hmm." I heard that Brother Huan'er is drunk three times a day, come and see if you have become a wine fairy. "Sit under a chair by the window.

The room burst into laughter. Jia Huan shook his head with a smile, Lin Daiyu's mouth was even sharper than Qingwen. Several maids got up to say hello. Qingwen and Zijuan came over to serve tea. Jia Huan looked at Zijuan, who smiled and nodded. Jia Huan immediately understood: Daiyu and Baoyu had a conflict, so they came to him to hide from Qingjing.

Although he won't catch Baoyu, he doesn't want to see Baoyu either. Baoyu is in other people's rooms, and everywhere else, there are people who greet and flatter him warmly, but here he is just an ordinary guest. Baoyu usually doesn't come to him.

On the chair under the window, Baochai pinched Daiyu's face and said with a smile: "What a sharp-toothed man." I have treated the maid harshly, so I will be lazy for a while and show you. ”

"Good sister, spare me. I shouldn't have said Brother Huan... and yours. The accent in Lin Daiyu's words fell on the three words "Brother Huan", as if she was "bullied" by Baochai because she was ridiculing Jia Huan.

Watching the two laugh by the study window, the afternoon sun fell on the two of them. Baochai is a bright and elegant cyan cotton jacket, and Daiyu is a graceful pink cotton jacket. Each has a different kind of beauty. The graceful and elegant Sister Bao, the charming and delicate Sister Lin. One is the crystal snow of Gaoshi in the mountains, and the other is the lonely forest of the world's immortals.

Jia Huanwan smiled. Sister Bao and Daiyu have been together in Jiafu for three years, right? It's a joke every day. I didn't expect him to have eyes today, and he could see the two laughing together.

Well, it's eye-catching!

With Baochai, Xiangling, Ying'er, Ruyi, and Lin Daiyu joining, Jia Huan's book copying plan has accelerated. The next day, Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun also came to laugh and copy books.

Jia Huan was relieved from the heavy work of copying books and focused his attention on ethnology. On the twentieth day of the first lunar month, the school of ethnology is about to begin. It's time for admissions.

There are a total of 62 people in the first phase of the steward training class, and Jia Huan does not plan to recruit students again. Among them, in terms of attitude, nearly ten people have been eliminated: playing at home during the New Year, instead of coming to study.

Only when you feel that learning is as necessary as breathing, can you burst out with great energy and potential. And these ten people obviously did not meet Jia Huan's requirements. In the subsequent assessment, they will be left behind and expelled.

Assessments are everywhere. You don't know, that's your business. Opportunities are only given to those who are prepared. Jia Huan is not a good teacher, he will take care of the poor students and guide them repeatedly. He embraced the brutal laws of business. The accurate expression is: natural selection, survival of the fittest!

Only practice and competition can eliminate talents with outstanding ability. Blowing away the wild sand to gold.

On the other hand, there are 44 students in the study class for the children of the Jia family. With the improvement of his status in Jiafu and the spread of the news of ethnography, it is expected that more children of the Jia family will come to study at the beginning of this school.

The Jia family has about 300 people in the remaining six rooms in the capital. There can be only forty or fifty children between the ages of seven and fifteen.

On the evening of the 19th, there was a light rain at night, and Jia Yun was talking to her mother at the house of her fifth sister-in-law under the west corridor outside Jia's mansion. A little oil lamp illuminates the poverty in the house.

All large buildings such as mansions, government offices, and temples were surrounded by corridors in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Sui and Tang dynasties. It can be seen in the Dunhuang murals. In the West Chamber: Step by step to the corridor. The streets and alleys on the outside of the cloister are called under the corridor. After the Song Dynasty, the cloister was replaced by the east and west wings and walls.

Jia Yun's residence is in a small street to the west of Rongguo Mansion. My father died a few years ago, and my family was poor.

Jia Yun sat on the chair and said, "Mother, I went to study in the clan school, one is that I am too old, and I am afraid that the third master will not accept it." The second is that I can't earn much money outside, and I can subsidize my family to some extent. ”

The fifth sister-in-law said: "You have always been clever and obedient, why are you confused?" What's the use of you going to study for the study class and the show? It is only right to go to a stewardship training course. The age limit there is 20 years old. You don't have to worry about it at home. You have tea and rice in ethnography. I can't support myself alone? ”

Jia Yun was silent for a while and decided to come down.

At the same time, in the mansion of Ning Guofu, Qin Keqing was telling his brother Qin Zhong about going to school tomorrow in the flower hall, softly speaking, listing them one by one, extremely detailed. The temperament is gentle and delicate. There was a light rain outside the eaves.

Qin Zhong is about eleven or twelve years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, pink face and red lips, and his appearance is somewhat similar to Qin Keqing, although he is a little resistant in his heart, but the opportunity his sister gave him to study is a kindness, and he can't live up to it.

Qin Keqing advised: "You were kicked out of the Jia family more than a year ago because of Uncle Bao's affairs. Father worries about you day and night and wants to find a way for you. This time I will go tomorrow, I have to change some things and study hard to improve. Uncle Huan's knowledge and character are excellent, you have to learn. I hope you will study and glorify your ancestors. ”

Qin Zhong replied timidly, "Got it, sister." "The first time he was kicked out of Jia Jiaxue: it was because Jia Huan sued Baoyu for having an improper relationship with him. Baoyu was beaten, and he didn't have the face to come back in the spring of the tenth year of Yongzhi.

When the sister and brother were talking, You Shi brought the eldest maid Yindie'er and several mothers-in-law and maids to visit.

After greeting for a while, You Shi sat on the chair at the top and drank tea, and said with a smile: "I know that you are a careful person, and you don't lack anything if you want to come to your brother." I gave my brother a few taels of silver as a meeting gift. Since tea and meals are provided in the ethnology, it is not limited to what snacks to buy and snacks to eat. ”

Yindie'er took four "wishful and auspicious" silver bills to Qin Zhong.

Qin Zhong looked at his sister. Qin Keqing smiled coquettishly and excused herself: "Oh, it's not the first time my mother-in-law has seen my brother, and she still talks about this?" ”

You just laughed and insisted on sending it. She had already felt Jia Rong's convergence and changes in the mansion, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, her crisis was lifted, and her position in the mansion in the East Mansion was stabilized. And Qin Keqing and Jia Huan have a close relationship, and she wants to make friends with Qin Keqing again.

Qin Keqing couldn't refuse, so he could only accept it. She still hasn't understood what is going on with her mother-in-law today.

The next morning, on the twentieth day of the first lunar month, the light rain did not stop, Jia Huan took Qian Huai, Hu Xiaosi, Liu Yichen, and Zhang Sishui to walk from Wangyueju to Ethnology.

The ethnography has been expanded, in addition to the original courtyard composed of several black tile and blue brick houses, the courtyard next door was bought for Jia Huan, and six red brick houses were built. The new house has just been built, and it has a new and energetic feeling.

The study class of the children of the Jia family is still in the original classroom. Sixty-two members of the stewardship training course are in the new compound.

Jia Huan, Liu Yichen and Zhang Sishui talked and laughed, first went to the room of the teacher's rest room and office, put down the umbrella, and opened the window to breathe. The handymen hired by the clan came to add tea and pour water. Jia Huan and a few people spread out their pen and ink, preparing the roster for registration and other work. Today, it is estimated that there will be new children of the Jia family to study in ethnic studies. Again, there is the need for a roll call.

Xu Yinglang will no longer come to the family school to substitute teach after the year, and Jia Huan is still worried about looking for a candidate for a school teacher. At present, he and Liu Yichen are concurrently serving together. After all, his energy still has to be focused on the steward training class. Jia Huan has lower requirements for the children of the Jia family to study.

In the ethnography, Jia Cong, Jia Lan, Jia Yan and others came one after another. Jia Qiang and Jia Rui also came over to say hello respectfully.

Jia Huan smiled and waved them back to the classroom first, and he would go to the classroom for roll call.

Qian Huai and Hu Xiaosi went to the steward training class.

With the arrival of all the students and the preparation for the official opening of the school, the clan school gradually became lively. At this time, an old man in civilian clothes in his sixties came in at the door, and a handsome young man in a white shirt, followed by Jia Rong's henchman, Shou'er.

After Jia Zhen died, his little servants were sent to Jia Rong in Zhuangzi. left Shou'er and Xi'er by his side.

Shou'er neatly saluted Jia Huan, "Third master, the little one will bring Brother Zhong with the words of the eldest grandmother." ”

Jia Huan got up from behind the bookcase with a smile and said, "This must be the father and brother of Brother Rong's daughter-in-law." ”

The old man in civilian clothes in his sixties is Qin Keqing's father, Qin Ye, a member of the Ministry of Industry's battalion secretary Wailang (from Wupin), who looks a little old and frail, and arched his hand: "Don't dare." I have heard the name of Mr. Qingsong for a long time, and I have the fate to see it today. ”

Jia Huan smiled. It's a good name! He's still young, and it's not time to get a number. This is an official fan. It seems that it will be hung up this autumn and winter. The poor body is like this, and he is still an official in the court, which is also quite hard.

After greeting and politeness, Jia Huan looked at Qin Zhong. An eleven or twelve-year-old boy, handsome and pretty, with a shy and pretty daughter. Just look at Qin Zhong's handsome appearance, coquettish. Jia Huan was sure that Jia Baoyu probably had a leg with Qin Zhong.

Before Qin Zhong could speak, his face turned red first, remembering his sister's advice, he lowered his head and said timidly: "I've seen Uncle Huan." ”

Jia Huan frowned slightly, very displeased. It's not like he's never seen such a thing as a boy or a girl. But Qin Zhong's pseudo-mother's style is very uncomfortable. Looks are natural, but mannerisms, language, and demeanor are your own business. As a man, he has no manhood at all, and he is a ghost.

After chatting a few words, Jia Huan asked Qin Zhong to go to the classroom first, and then sent Qin Ye away. Just as he was about to go to the roll call, a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old came in from outside the door. The stature is on the high side, and Sven is delicate. It was Jia Yun who made up her mind to sign up last night.

Jia Yun smiled and saluted Jia Huan, and said, "Jia Yun has seen Uncle Huan. ”

Jia Huan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he chuckled. The second master of Langxia Yun came to report. This seedling is stronger than Qin Zhong. (To be continued.) )
