Chapter 194: Ethnography (I)
Jia Huan visited Jia Yu and Jia Rong respectively in the afternoon and evening of the eighth day of the lunar month. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Subsequently, the news that Huan Sanye was about to take charge of Jia's family studies spread all over Ningrong Street.
The Jia family has a total of 20 rooms, 12 rooms in Jinling, and 8 rooms in the capital. There are more than 1,000 people up and down the Rongguo Mansion, and there are slightly fewer people in the Ningguo Mansion, and there are nearly 1,000 people. The remaining six rooms have about 300 people. There are more than 2,000 people in total, all of whom live on Ning Rong Street.
On winter nights, the number of pedestrians on Ningrong Street decreases, and the lights are lit up in Rongguo Mansion, Ningguo Mansion, and the houses on both sides of the street.
the housekeepers, stewards, housekeepers, maids, servants, and mothers-in-law of Jiafu; The elders and children of the various clans living in Ningrong Street discussed, discussed, watched, and waited for Jia Huan's actions. The ideas are different, guessing Jia Huan's intentions.
On Rongguofu East Road, in the room of Qiu's concubine, Jia Yu, the lights are bright.
Jia Cong came over from his residence and said happily: "Mother, the third brother is in charge of the clan and sent someone to inform me to go to school tomorrow." In the future, I will come back like the third brother to take the exam, so that you can enjoy it. ”
Qiu told his son to wipe his tears and cry.
…
Outside Rongguo's mansion, in the west alley of Ningrong Street, Jia Yan's widowed mother told her son, "Don't be naughty when you go to school, study hard." Follow Young Master Lan (Jia Lan). Alas, if you can get the blue eyes of the third master, our mother and daughter will have a better life in the future. ”
…
In the East Hutong of Ningrong Street, Jia Huang, a member of the five-room jade character generation of the Jia family, came home from outside and told his wife Jin, "Today I heard that the third master of Huan wants to be in charge of the clan study, and your nephew Jin Rong should be more peaceful in the family study, don't make trouble." ”
Jin's temperament was a little spicy, and he said with a smile: "Hey, he's a child, can he still learn to be a gentleman?" I'll talk to my nephew and tell him to be honest. Are you afraid that he will remove my nephew from the family studies? ”
Jia Huang said: "That's not it. In ethnology, relatives can go to school if they want. It's just that the new official took office with three fires. Don't be the first bird to be your nephew. ”
Jin smiled disapprerovingly: "In my opinion, my uncle (Jia Dairu) may not be willing to let him come nonsense?" He's cutting off people's money. ”
Jia Huang smiled and waved his hand.
According to the rules, the clan does not charge money, and provides two meals of tea and rice. There are also restraints for Jia Dairu. But in recent years, whoever wants to enter the clan study has to send twenty-four taels of silver to Jia Dairu, which is an unspoken rule. If the third master of Huan is in charge of the family science, it is indeed a way to cut off people's wealth.
…
The news spread like a gust of wind all over Jiafu, and Jia Qiang, who lived outside Ningguo's Mansion, came back from eating and drinking, listened to the news, and went to Ningguo's Mansion to find Jia Rong.
Seeing Jia Rong in Luoyun Xuan in Ning Guo's Mansion, he asked, "Brother Rong, what's going on?" Why did it suddenly spread that Jia Huan was in charge of ethnology? Really? ”
Although he fights cocks and lackeys every day, he enjoys flowers and willows. But it is still famous in ethnography. Make a self-motivated look.
Jia Rong poured wine for Jia Qiang with a smile, "Good brother, don't worry, take a sip of wine first." Can this be faked? Uncle Huan came to sit with me in the evening and talked about it. He has a famous person, and the whole house can be suppressed by the master (Jia Jing) who went to cultivate. Uncle Huan is going to teach in the clan school, who can stop him? ”
Jia Qiang sighed depressedly, "I'm afraid my good days are going to be gone." "He has a bad relationship with Jia Huan. If Jia Huan really taught in the clan studies, he was afraid that he would have to give Jia Huan a whole thing.
Jia Rong smiled, "If you don't go to the clan study, it's over." "He's been in a better mood lately. After his father died, no one cared about him anymore, and everything was at his will.
Jia Qiang shook her head and said, "If I don't study in the clan studies, won't I become an idle prodigal child." Inappropriate. "If he has silver, he will go to Guozijian to donate a prisoner like Brother Rong did before.
The two drank for a while. Jia Rong came up with wine, and said with a smile: "Good brother, if you want me to say, if you care, it will be messy." Jia Huan wants to receive and manage the family studies, and he has to ask the third master (Jia Dairu) what he means. I heard that he didn't go to the third master today. Ming'er has a good show to watch. ”
Jia Rong drank too much. If he was sober, he would never dare to call Jia Huan's name. He was afraid of Jia Huan, so he was respectful and docile in front of Jia Huan. If it was really from the heart, he would be happy to see Jia Huan unlucky. There are two reasons for this.
First, his father (Jia Zhen) was designed to die by Jia Huan. He knows the inside story of this very well. This is the revenge of "killing my father".
Second, his daughter-in-law Qin Keqing and Jia Huan had an affair (Jia Rong thought), which made him feel very depressed.
Jia Qiang's eyes lit up slightly, she took a sip of wine, and said energetically: "Brother Rong, this is reasonable." I'm going to talk to Uncle Rui (Jia Rui) tomorrow. It is always necessary to make Jia Huan unable to stay. ”
…
In Ningrong Street, Jia Dairu's residence. In the slightly simple three-room tiled house, oil lamps are lit, and the light is dim.
Jia Dairu was old, his beard was white, he sat in the chair and sulked, and his old wife did not dare to say much, sewing and mending on the side.
There has been news today that the third master of Huan in Xifu is going to take over the family science, and he has already won Shi Taijun's consent. The eldest lord and the second lord of Xifu did not object. However, Jia Huan didn't come to discuss with him, what should he be?
As for Dongfu, he doesn't count on it. In May, I saw with my own eyes that Jia Rong, Jia Qiong, Jia Chen, and Jia Lan sent Jia Huan away. It's just a mess, what kind of system?
When Jia Dairu was angry and depressed, his grandson Jia Rui came in from outside, his face was happy. Jia Rui is twenty years old this year, he looks good, white and clean, wearing a blue robe, and after saluting, he stepped forward and said: "Grandpa, I asked among my classmates in the clan studies today, and most of them said that they didn't like the third master of Huan to manage the clan studies. ”
He didn't have the will and mind to go against the third master of Huan. That's the trend! Even the second brother Lian, who he had to flatter in the past, was holding Jia Huan. Who in Jiafu would disrespect Jia Sanye? But in this matter, he had to come forward, once his grandfather lost his position as a clan school teacher, how would his family live?
Jia Dairu looked a little better, and said slowly: "I have been diligent and diligent in clan studies all these years, and there is no fault. He's a child, for no reason, so why should he take my place? Tomorrow, you go and invite all the clan elders, and we will evaluate this theory in the clan studies. ”
"Huh." Jia Rui should come down.
…
The night was dark. On Jiafu West Road, in Sister Feng's courtyard, Jia Lian went out and did not return.
Wang Xifeng was angry and depressed, so she stayed in the house to talk to her. The topic unconsciously turned to Jia Huan's responsibility for ethnography.
Ping'er sat on the embroidery pier and said, "Grandma, I heard that the third master of Huan didn't go to Jia Dairu's house today. I only went to the eldest master and Brother Rong. ”
Wang Xifeng was lying on the bed, covered with a quilt and a bright water-green quilt cover, and said with a "hum": "Why does Brother Huan'er have to be in charge of clan studies today, I don't know." But Jia Dairu pointed to the silver in the genealogy to live, so would he easily let go? I'm afraid it's noisy. Ming'er has a good show to watch. ”
Ping'er smiled and said, "How can I listen to my grandmother's tone and be a little gloating." ”
Wang Xifeng laughed. She really has the mentality of watching the hilarious. She was very curious about how Jia Huan opened up the situation. Jia Dairu is the patriarch of the Jia family, with a high seniority, and if he works hard, can Jia Huan do it?
…
Hyosung sinks westward, and roosters sing. The skyline is glowing white. After a while, the sky gradually brightened.
With Mochizuki in the center, Jia Huan gently took Ruyi's white-skinned and soft arms away from his body, lifted the warm quilt, and prepared to get up.
Feeling the movement, Ruyi opened his eyes in a daze, "Third Master, are you going to get up?" ”
Jia Huan smiled and pinched her pretty face, with a flush from deep sleep, the twelve-year-old girl became more and more delicate and pretty. I haven't seen him for a month or two, and I'm getting more and more clingy, "Just get up?" It's past seven o'clock. ”
After he was lifted, he was a little slack, and he didn't get up early and read in the morning like when he was studying at the academy. It's almost like sleeping until you wake up naturally.
Jia Huan let Ruyi continue to sleep, after getting up and washing, he tied his hair under Qingwen's service, and after arriving in the front hall, he asked Hu Xiaosi to send a letter to Jia Dairu.
Many people in the Jia family are expected to see him and Jia Dairu fight. But is it hard to get Jia Dairu?
Jia Huan smiled and instructed him to go directly to the clan study after breakfast. (To be continued.) )
