Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

Chapter 761: It's okay to teach two more

Zhu Biao is particularly proud now!

Although it was not convenient for him to show this expression in order to avoid being criticized by Mr. Hu.

But in his heart he was already extremely proud.

We married a good wife!

At this moment, Zhu Biao was particularly grateful to his mother.

Because he knew that if his mother had not asked him to do so, his father would not have been so insistent on letting Yue'er marry him.

After all, Mr. Hu is not so easy to convince.

But after living together for a few years, Zhu Biao felt that his wife was so good.

atmosphere!

Very skillful!

Pretty!

Even though she was just the Crown Princess and only had to manage the entire Eastern Palace, Zhu Biao had already felt Hu Xinyue's abilities and character.

There is one black and one white. During the many times when Zhu Biao talked with Hu Xinyue about court politics and state affairs, he sighed from time to time.

That means Hu Xinyue is a girl, otherwise, based on her abilities and means, she would definitely be the potential prime minister of the Ming Dynasty.

She is obviously just a girl who has never had any experience in officialdom and has only studied in the Hu Mansion.

But Hu Xinyue was able to use Zhu Biao's simple narration to raise questions or come up with solutions from an angle that he had never thought of.

Even though Zhu Biao had experienced this ability many times, he still felt shocked and excited.

This isn't just finding a wife; this is finding a wife and getting a skilled assistant as a gift.

Zhu Biao was not as overbearing and violent as his father, but he inherited some of his father's ideas.

Or perhaps it was because he had been accustomed to seeing his father and mother supporting each other and discussing things with each other since he was a child, Zhu Biao had no objection to Hu Xinyue expressing her views on political affairs. Instead, he was eager to try.

Unfortunately, Hu Xinyue's 'inherited' lazy nature made her not interested in these things at all.

It's not her job anyway, why should she rush over to do it?

If you have that much time, you might as well go to the garden more often to see if any lady has seen a major increase in performance recently, or if Aunt Jiang has developed any new and useful secret recipes for maintaining the body or face.

Even if she could find time to take care of the Eastern Palace, Hu Xinyue thought it was more interesting than sitting with Zhu Biao to look through memorials and discuss political affairs.

She is not avoiding suspicion, she is just not interested and is lazy. There is nothing she can do about it, it is a family tradition!

It is precisely because of Hu Xinyue's "excellent" performance that Zhu Biao is now more and more excited.

Well, I have finally learned the "inheritance" of my beloved concubine's family.

Look, my beloved concubine figured out the problem just now at a glance.

This shows that I still have some shortcomings.

As for being insulted by Mr. Hu, that’s no big deal.

After all, he is my elder and my teacher who taught me real skills, so what's wrong with saying a few insults to him?

Thinking of this, Zhu Biao bowed deeply to Master Hu again.

"Thank you uncle for teaching me!"

Mr. Hu looked at Zhu Biao's appearance and sighed with disappointment.

He first helped Zhu Biao up, then glared at Hu Xinyue fiercely, and then spoke in a deep voice.

"You need to learn how I handle government affairs. In fact, I told you before that you need to master mathematics."

"It doesn't mean that after you master the arithmetic, you can do this and that every day!"

"That would be more trouble than good for you, because that is the job of a petty official in the Ministry of Revenue."

"The reason why I let you master arithmetic is to make you more sensitive to numbers."

“Only those who are familiar with mathematics can instinctively think of what the numbers represent when they see them.”

"Moreover, I hope you can have a kind of thinking!"

“A rigorous and systematic way of thinking!”

Having said that, Master Hu looked at the sky and simply turned around and walked towards his home with the two of them.

"Let's go back to the study!"

"Some things may not be so intuitive if you don't write them down!"

"In fact, Yue'er has also learned these things, but she didn't expect that they could be used to handle government affairs!"

Hu Xinyue was stunned when she heard this, and then looked at Master Hu in surprise.

"Uncle, didn't you say that the things I learned were all for managing the backyard and the family business?"

"Can those skills also be used to handle government affairs?"

Mr. Hu answered unhappily as he walked away.

"Think about it yourself now, what did I tell you at the beginning?"

"What I wanted at that time was for you to marry into a wealthy and scholarly family, become the mistress of the household, and manage the family's backyard, servants, and assets."

"Then think about it, what's the difference between this and handling government affairs or even governing the country?"

"Managing the backyard has become managing the harem. It's nothing more than having a few more concubines. You should beat them or scold them, and kill those you don't like."

"As for the family's property and servants, what difference would it make if they were replaced by the six ministries, three departments and all the officials?"

"Still the same methods of controlling subordinates, still the same waiting for people to work?"

"To put it bluntly, it's nothing more than a slightly larger scope and a slightly larger number of people. Everything else is the same!"

When Hu Xinyue heard this, she suddenly understood.

"Oh, that's how it is!"

"No wonder the prince often showed me his government affairs. I always felt that he was not smart enough and could not think of anything!"

"It turns out that it's because I've learned it a long time ago, but he hasn't!"

Zhu Biao looked at his beloved concubine speechlessly.

He really wanted to say, you don't have to say this!

But looking at Master Hu who was walking with a breeze beside him, he didn't feel comfortable complaining to his face.

Because he knew that after he made this complaint, before his beloved concubine could react, Master Hu would slap him on the head.

However, also because of Hu Xinyue's words, Zhu Biao became more interested in the following courses.

Be nice!

Amazing.

Being able to govern the country and manage the house at the same time, what a magical skill it is.

Mr. Hu ignored Hu Xinyue's rather "showy" remarks.

Some things always lack power when they are expressed with empty words.

More often than not, it still requires the use of pen, ink and paper for intuitive expression.

Now Master Hu has only one idea, which is to quickly teach the young couple what they need to learn, and then let them figure it out on their own.

Of course, if they still can't figure it out, we can still practice cultivation together, and they can ask me for advice then.

However, if that's the case, don't blame yourself for criticizing.

Soon, the three of them strode back to the study of the manor.

Hu Xinyue obediently stepped forward to help grind the ink, while Master Hu spread out a piece of paper and then picked up the brush.

But just before he started writing, Mr. Hu suddenly thought of a question.

"It seems I haven't taught Anqing yet!"

"Well, Yue'er, ask Hu Yi to call Yue'er and her husband over!"
