Sixty or thirty books of poetry
"Who is as selfless as you are?" When Pearl heard this, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "Hurry up and stop arguing, there is a guest outside today." ”
"The voice here is inaudible to the master outside," the maid said, but she still lowered her voice and scolded the little girl, "Go back to me quickly, and I'll settle the account for you in the evening." ”
Pearl saw Xue Pan standing in the atrium at this time, "Uncle Xue is here." He pulled the girl again, walked down from the verandah together, and saluted Xue Pan together, "We didn't see it, but it's really forgive, please come in to serve tea." ”
"It's okay," Xue Pan waved his hand, "I'm waiting for Brother Bao, so I won't go in, I heard Sister Pearl talking here just now......" When the two people walked in, Xue Pan saw the appearance of the scolding girl clearly, and couldn't help but secretly scream in his heart. It's bright and arrogant, and the eyes don't seem to be the eyes of a maid. "I haven't seen this sister before, is she also serving the ancestor?"
"Yes, what did this girl do just now, I'm afraid she shocked Uncle Xue?" Pearl pushed the girl, "This is Qingwen, she has been doing needlework at home for a long time, and she doesn't usually come out." ”
It turned out that this was Qingwen, and only her hot temper would scold the little girl in public, Xue Pan looked at Qingwen again, Xue Pan hadn't said anything yet, Qingwen was unwilling, she raised her eyebrows, "What did Uncle Xue look at me?" I don't have any flowers on my face. ”
Xue Pan was made red-faced, he covered his mouth with his fist and coughed, "It's just that I haven't seen you, so I'm just going to take a look." ”
Pearl hurriedly made amends, and pulled Qingwen away, seeing that Xue Pan was not to blame, Pearl breathed a long sigh of relief and pinched Qingwen's face, "You little hoof, didn't you scold the little girl enough just now?" This time he is snarking at Lord Xue again! It's better to have a good temperament, otherwise others are afraid that they will have a seizure on the spot. ”
Qingwen pursed her lips, "What are you afraid of, the world can't say a single word, his eyes are sinister, floating around, it's really annoying, even if it's an uncle, I can't let him look at it like this." ”
Xue Pan was bored, so he didn't move, just waited for Baoyu to come out together, the two of them each brought a scholar, Baoyu was bigger, and there were nurses, grandmothers, brothers, and others, who followed behind, Xue Pan couldn't help but laugh when he looked at it, what do so many people do in his own family? It won't be to go to see my father so I pulled these people to be brave, sure enough, Baoyu said to the nurse brother next to him, it was Li Gui, the son of the wet nurse Li Mama, "Brother Gui, if you wait for the master to ask, you have to help me say a few good words." ”
Li Gui hurriedly said, "My lord, don't worry, with your brother here, I'll help you bear it first, but there is one thing, you must study hard and be motivated, and I will be less scolded by the master." Then I'll also recite Amitabha! Other people's minions earn some good and decent money with their masters, and we slaves are beaten and scolded for nothing. From now on, it will be good to have some pity. ”
Baoyu smiled: "Good brother, don't be wrong, I'll invite you tomorrow." Li Gui said: "Little ancestor, who dares to ask you to ask, just ask to listen to a sentence and a half." ”
The two of them went to Jia Zheng's outer study together, Jia Zheng's outer study was on the west road of Rongguo Mansion, and Jia Yu's place of residence happened to be sandwiched between the main courtyard. Jia Zheng was already in the study, today he took a break, wore a scarf, and wore a purple-brown robe of Tuanshou, with a demeanor like jade, and a thin figure, but he was very literati, but when he saw Baoyu, his face was not very good-looking, Baoyu saluted, he snorted coldly, "What are you busy with these days?" Why can't I see you? But hiding at home and being lazy? ”
Baoyu hurriedly said that he had already gone to the clan school to study, and Jia Zheng sneered: "If you mention the word 'going to school' again, even I will be ashamed to death." According to my word, it is right for you to insist on your going. Stand carefully on my dirty ground, and lean on my dirty door! All the Qing guests got up early and said with a smile: "Why should the old man be like this." Today, the world brother has gone to study, and he will be famous in three or two years, and he will not be like a child in previous years. ”
Jia Zhengyin asked, "Who is with Baoyu?" I only heard two promises from outside, and three or four big men came in early, calling Qian'er to say goodbye. When Jia Zheng saw it, he recognized it as the son of Baoyu's mother, named Li Gui. Because he said to him, "You go to school with him every day, what kind of books did he read?" I read some gossip in my stomach and learned some delicate naughtiness. When I'm free, I'll peel off your skin first, and then settle accounts with those who don't grow! The frightened Li Gui hurriedly knelt down on his knees, took off his hat, met his head and made a sound, and promised "yes" again and again, and said: "Brother has read the third "Book of Songs", what 'Yo Yo Deer Song, Lotus Leaf Duckweed', the little one doesn't dare to lie. The audience burst into laughter. Jia Zheng couldn't hold back his laughter. Because he said: "Even if you read thirty more copies of the Book of Songs, you will just cover your ears and steal the bell and coax people." When you go to ask the master of the school, you will say that I said: What is the ancient text of the "Book of Songs", there is no need to respond to the story, but first explain the "Four Books" in one go and memorize it, which is the most important. Li Gui hurriedly agreed "yes", and seeing that Jia Zheng was speechless, Fang withdrew.
Baoyu's face was frightened, and Xue Pan hurriedly spoke, "Uncle don't have to worry so much, everyone is so young and naughty, as long as Brother Bao grows up after a while, it will be fine." ”
"If you don't know how to do it, then take a look at your cousin of the Xue family," Jia Zheng scolded, "People are just a few years older than you, and they have already entered the Xian'an Palace to study, and as soon as they entered the school, they took the position of the head of the class. If you have a school, you Xue family cousin one-tenth of one-two, it is enough to be proud, and you mix in the family every day, it is really unseemly! ”
Xue Pan persuaded again, "Uncle said that he was laughing, I was just a coincidence, Brother Bao still doesn't know how to be motivated?" ”
