Second Master Xue of the Red Chamber has space

Chapter 260
In the evening, Li Wan took Jia Lan back to Rongguo Mansion. After serving dinner, the wives and maids chatted with Jia Mu in her upper room.

Jia Muyin asked: "Zhu'er daughter-in-law, you went back to your mother's house today to see your father and mother, are they in good health?"

Li Wan is a good daughter-in-law who knows the etiquette and keeps the etiquette. Basically, she will not go back to her natal home if there is nothing to do. Yes, she agreed, but she didn't know why she went home, and her heart was hanging here for a whole day.

When Li Wan heard Jiamu's question, he just smiled and said, "My parents are very good, Lao Laozu always remembers them. It's just that I don't go back today just to visit their elders. It turned out that the elders of my clan had to pay a visit after returning from a long journey. two."

Mrs. Wang asked: "Which elder is back? If it's important, you can tell us, don't be rude in front of relatives and elders, do you know?"

Li Wan nodded: "It's an old man from the grandparents of my family. Everyone knows his name, and it's Li Du, who knows how to do things."

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Lingxuan was startled. How could she not know about Li Zhixing?Li Zhixing was still in Beijing when Jia Lian opened his doors, but no matter how much the Zhang family called to see him, Li Zhixing would treat him as if there was no such thing and never see him.He is already very ignorant of flattery in this way, but the members of the Zhang family are not angry but respect him, respecting his innocence and nobility.

Ling Xuan hurriedly said: "Since the old man is here, no matter what, we have to pay a visit to the mansion. I'm afraid the old man is coming back for the New Year? Will he leave after the next year?"

Li Wan said with a smile: "Why is the eldest wife's heart the same as mine? I thought that Grandpa Zhixing would go out again after the Chinese New Year, but who knows it's not. Today I took Lan'er, Grandpa Zhixing I liked it very much when I saw it, and said that I would never leave again. I just wanted to be an enlightened husband for Lan'er. Master and ladies, let me know and see if you can do it."

Everyone in Jia's mother was stunned for three times. What kind of wind is blowing today?Will Li Zhixing still condescend to teach students?
But this is rare good news for everyone in the Rongguo Mansion. Jia's mother immediately stated: "If you can make it, how can you not make it? This is a blessing that we can't ask for! Quick, let's order someone to clean up one Come from the study room and go to the first-class guest room, ready to live in for Mr. Li. It’s just from Zhu’er’s family. I don’t know what Mr. Li likes? Or do you have any requests?”

Mrs. Wang also said: "Yes, Mr. Li only said that he was willing to teach Lan'er, so he didn't say that he would recruit more disciples?"

Li Wan half smiled and half annoyed: "My wife thinks my daughter-in-law is stupid? When I saw Grandpa Zhixing, I asked him. How can we wait until now? Grandpa Zhixing said that he has spent his whole life in trouble, and if he doesn't want to leave, he will leave." I don’t want to move anymore, I just want to accept three or five or seven boys who are hopeful in the imperial examination, and teach them together. I don’t want everyone to be the number one in the exam. It's been a long time in the world.

After hearing what he said, I immediately invited him to live in our house for a long time so that he can teach our two Imperial College students together.After hearing this, Grandpa Zhixing said, "If that's the case, it's fine."Old man, I have a weird temper, but I have a false name. If I really take students away, there are no such kind of young masters in the rich and powerful families in the capital. The bad, stupid, stupid, and lazy are all stuffed in. I can't say The old man is about to offend the rich and powerful, but it's not beautiful. It's better to go to your house quietly and only accept a few smart elementary school students, that's all.There is only one thing, after all I am old and want to take Shaoyou by my side to serve me, nothing else matters, it's up to you, just rely on old lady Jia's mediation. '

When I heard Grandpa Zhixing's words, I felt so happy in my heart, thinking that I would come back earlier to announce the good news to the old ladies, wives, and gentlemen, but Grandpa Zhixing liked Lan'er very much, but he refused to let go, so it was delayed for a while. It is only now that I have to report back. "

After saying these words, everyone was overjoyed, and Zhang Lingxuan said: "Okay, good things are never too late. In this way, our Jia family will have a famous teacher. As long as our children are willing to study hard, we will not worry about it." There is no future. By then, if we can truly earn a title and come back, our family will be prosperous again!"

Everyone talked and laughed, and Mother Jia asked who Li Shaoyou was. Li Wan explained, and Mother Jia was overjoyed, saying that everything was arranged according to the highest standards.

Later, both Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng knew about it.She and Zheng gathered together to discuss, and vacated a large study room in Jia Zheng's current east courtyard. Firstly, it will be used by the young masters in the mansion for future study, and secondly, there are many upper rooms in the courtyard of the outer study room. It is enough for Li Zhixing's grandfather and grandson to live, and they are outside, away from the female relatives, which is the best place to go.

Therefore, Jia Zheng had no study room to use, so he took out a courtyard north of the homes of Li, Zhao, and Zhang Wang and made it an outside study with him. moved here.

At dawn the next day, She and Zheng woke up early. Jia She took Jia Lian and Jia Cong, and Jia Zheng took Jia Zhu and Baoyu, and two large carts of valuable ancient books, calligraphy, paintings, gold and silver. , to Li Shouzhong's mansion to greet Li Zhixing.

Accompanied by Li Shaoyou, Li Zhixing met Rongfu and others.After saluting, Li Zhixing looked at the four young talents and was very satisfied. He asked a few questions. Jia Zhu and Jia Lian answered quite well. He looked ignorant.

Jia Zheng was so angry that he wanted to strangle him immediately, but Baoyu secretly looked at his father's face, only to feel that the hairs all over his body stood on end, and he was so frightened that he didn't know what to do.

Li Zhixing saw this and became convinced.

He stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The young masters are indeed the dragons and phoenixes among the people, and the old man is very satisfied. But... if you enter my sect, my rules are very strict, and if you fail to meet the requirements, you will be punished Yes. I wonder if the young gentlemen can withstand the punishment. Will they complain and cry to your old lady or madam? "

Everyone else laughed and said they didn't dare, but Baoyu, who murmured for a long time, had no choice but to succumb to Lao Tzu's coercion, and said in a low voice, "Don't dare."

Li Zhixing nodded: "Well, since this is the case, there is still value in teaching. However, I am not afraid that you will be lazy if you are worshiping under my sect today. If you are lazy once, I will never teach again. If you don't If you plan to recognize me as your husband, just skip school."
