The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Time flies, Jia Lian passed through his infancy smoothly, and passed most of his infancy, and continued to grow up healthy and strong, but he will soon be unable to continue leisurely, because Zhang decided to consider finding a husband to let him go. He is in school.

Ordinarily, even if he is a prince, he has to wait until he is 6 years old to enter the study. Jia Lian is only 4 years old this year, so there is really no need to worry too much, but who made Jia Lian perform so well? He has always been like a little child prodigy Existence, the Analects of Confucius was also grasped in Zhou Ceremony, and the literacy and red tracing were also done extremely well.

"Lian'er is going to start school soon, are you happy?" Mrs. Zhang also loves her son to the extreme, and because of this, she knows that her son must not be spoiled. If she raises Jia Lian to look like Jia She, she will I'm afraid I will find a rope and hang myself to death.

Jia Lian nodded naturally, and said in a childlike voice, "Happy, my son likes to study." He didn't like to study, but knew that he had to study. reason.

Seeing him looking like a little adult, Mrs. Zhang was both moved and distressed in her heart.Mrs. Zhang has been married for a long time. Although Mrs. Shi has always held power, Mrs. Wang is also easy to exercise power. She took over the account book, which also let her know a lot about the situation in this mansion. She understood that the life here is not as prosperous as it looks from the outside, but it is just barely able to live on. Every year, there is almost no balance. The large sum of money from the household department made her startled when she thought about it.

In fact, Mrs. Zhang also learned how to be a housekeeper when she was at home. Why didn't she understand that it wasn't that there was no money in the mansion, but that the money was taken away by someone. She didn't even have to think about the person who took the money. There is no doubt about Mrs. Charity here.But she can only understand in her heart that there is still nothing to say with her mouth, otherwise, even if she talks too much, there will be nothing good to do.All she can do is manage her dowry well and leave more things for her son.

About going to school, Mrs. Zhang wanted to go home and talk to her parents. She had better choose carefully. Ask her to silence those thoughts for a while.

"Grandma, don't make decisions by yourself like this. It's better to discuss these matters with the uncle." Nanny Zhang persuaded.

As soon as Mrs. Zhang heard Jia Amnesty's name, she felt unreliable, "I know what the nanny said, but you also know what the uncle is like. If the matter is entrusted to him, what will happen? I really dare not think about it."

Nanny Zhang persuaded again, "No matter what you say, my brother is the uncle's son. The uncle usually likes to have fun, but reading is a big deal for my brother. Naturally, the uncle will think carefully about it."

"Take a ten thousand step back, if the uncle is not satisfied with what he has done, grandma can also tell the family, if you don't tell the uncle to directly make the decision, I am afraid that the uncle will be unhappy in his heart. It's even worse." She was referring to those Yingying and Yanyan around Jia She, especially the one that Shi pointed out.

Mrs. Zhang thought about it for a while, then nodded slightly, "Forget it, I'll talk to him first, if he doesn't agree, then I'll go home and beg my parents. If Lian'er is asked to go home to study, I will definitely not obey." .”

Nanny Zhang smiled and said, "Brother is so smart, he already knows more than many children now, and he also remembers all the books grandma taught before, so don't worry too much."

In Mrs. Zhang's heart, it was absolutely unreliable to let Jia Amnesty do things, so she asked him to talk to Jia Daishan.

"Lian'er is now 4 years old. Although I taught him the "Three Character Classic" and so on, he is smart and has already remembered it all in my heart. I thought, Zhu'er has also been studying for two years. , now let Lian'er go to school earlier, so that he won't be fooled around all day long."

Hearing what Zhang said, Jia Amnesty was of course happy, but if he was asked to find a master for Jia Lian or something, it would definitely fail. As for the family school, he had also been there. , but after all, he is the only one, so it is not very suitable."

Hearing what he said, Mrs. Zhang was a little relieved. She didn't want to believe the family education of Jia's family, just to see who they read, "If you are not sure, why don't you talk to the master?" Let’s talk about it, although this matter is not big, if we make our own decisions, it’s not good, it’s better to let the master help us make up our minds.”

Although Jia Daishan was a military officer, he loved children who were well-educated all his life, and it was only for this reason that he liked Jia Zheng.In fact, although Jia Zheng looked hard at his studies, he was extremely good at reading and didn't know how to adapt. He was really mediocre in learning, and he was not good at communicating with others.On the contrary, Jia She, although he doesn't seem to be very popular, has a smooth temper. Although he hasn't read many books, he knows quite a few people. It's just that he is not a good person no matter in the eyes of Jia Daishan and his wife or Zhang. , Just a group of fox friends and dog friends.

Jia Amnesty was very satisfied with what Mrs. Zhang said, and he didn't go out the next day. When Jia Daishan just came down to court, he went to ask his son about studying.

Jia Daishan was very happy to hear his eldest son talk about letting his grandson study, but he felt that it was unnecessary to find a gentleman, "Mr. Li, Zhuer's enlightenment teacher, is a good example. I have seen it too. He is excellent in knowledge. Since Lian'er wants to study, let's go with Zhu'er."

Hearing these words, Jia Amnesty was quite unhappy. How could his son, the future heir of the Rongguo Mansion, study with Jia Zhu?But no matter how unwilling he was, he could only complain a few words in his heart, and on the surface he had to respectfully agree.But when I went back to my room and talked about it, I felt a little unhappy.

Mrs. Zhang has already resigned herself to such a thing. From her point of view, Jia Amnesty's complaints are meaningless. If she really wants to make a change, she should work hard to improve her life and work. It's not just to please the old man and his wife, but he will have a future in the future.It's a pity that Jia Amnesty can't do it at all, and he is still dissatisfied now, but it's just a matter of venting.

It's not in Jia She's heart that he doesn't understand why Jia Zheng is more favored than himself, but he is born with a headache when he reads books, even if he really reads, it's just torturing himself, it's better to socialize with friends outside , can mix personal feelings.However, although he was laissez-faire with himself, he treated Jia Lian differently. When he asked Jia Lian to study, he held the child in his arms and taught him very carefully, "When Lian'er is gone, you must study hard. Since the master said Li Juren is a good student in reading, and he is definitely not far behind, you must follow along and study hard, and you must compare Zhuer, but remember."

Mrs. Zhang didn't want her son to be persecuted like this at all, so she immediately took Jia Lian from Jia Amnesty's arms and said, "Zhu'er has been in school for a year, and Lian'er has just entered school. How can we compare? Mo You can't do it if you're too tired." Then he said to Jia Lian, "I know you're smart, but you have to remember that reading and learning is not based on intelligence, it's because of hard work."

Jia Lian nodded and said yes, "Mother, don't worry, my son will remember."

Jia Amnesty now has only one precious son Jia Lian left, and when he hears that his son will be tired, he is also worried, but he still insists, "The Wang family doesn't know a single character, so he will just look at the account book. What to give to Zhu'er, you are the daughter of the head of the Imperial Academy, and you also gave Lian'er the ability to read and write, how can Lian'er be worse than Zhu'er."

Mrs. Zhang really wants to say, the second uncle can still teach his son to read, can you do it?She also knew that it would be useless to hit Jia Amnesty like this, so she carefully checked the books and ink for Jia Lian, and even carefully considered what kind of clothes she would wear tomorrow.

Jia Lian's current mood is similar to those of the children in the mountains. He knows how miserable the future of Jia's mansion will be, but he doesn't hope that he will become so miserable at all. It is necessary, he still can't think of what to do in other aspects, even if he thinks about it, it is difficult to do anything at this age, and there is only one thing left in his head, "knowledge changes destiny", so, reading It is essential.

Early the next morning, Jia Lian changed into the blue clothes that Mrs. Zhang had prepared early, and followed Jia She. When she saw Li Juren, she performed the apprentice ceremony very seriously. "The child is not talented, so I have to trouble the gentleman. If he is naughty, please discipline him more."

"Master, you're welcome." Li Juren had a pretty good sense of Jia Xiaolian. He was wearing a plain green dress with only dark patterns embroidered on it. He had a very serious face, and there was only a boy holding a book behind him. It looks like they are here to study. It can be said that after Zhang's packaging, Jia Lian's children's shoes left a good first impression on Mr. Zhang.

When Jia Amnesty left, Li Juren first asked Jia Zhu to review yesterday's homework, and then went to Jia Lian's side to test his level, "Have you ever been enlightened?" Seeing Jia Lian nodding, he asked again, "I have learned everything. what book?"
