The gentleman's way

The old lady Jun followed Mrs. Zhang everywhere to find a way, and even supported her body to walk the front steps of the Buddha in Dabei Temple. That is, after Shiro was born, the old lady was finally able to rest in peace. Started to worry.

Mrs. Jun is only sixty, but her body has become worse and worse over the years. This is due to illnesses when she was young.Master Jun and the old lady have been dependent on each other since childhood, and their relationship is naturally very good. Seeing his mother aging day by day, there is nothing he can do.

What makes Master Jun feel heartbroken is that years ago, the old lady had a serious illness. At the beginning, it was just an accidental cold. Well, Juro should have been at home to take care of the sick.That is, the serious illness, the old lady's body was completely damaged, even the doctor only said to take good care of it, but it was only the past two years.

Junjuro doesn't know these things. The old lady regards her grandson as more important than her eyes, and she is not willing to delay her grandson's study because of her own affairs. Although she is the one who calls for her grandson to come back most often, if Whoever really delayed Juro, she was the first one who couldn't be spared.

When he came back this time, Jun Changning chatted and laughed with the old lady for a while, and then backed out. Because of the short time, he didn’t notice anything wrong. He just thought that the old lady’s spirit was not as good as before, and Mrs. Zhang didn’t want to tell him. These made the child worry, but Master Jun had his own concerns, and took his son to the study after leaving the yard.

Jun Changning is a person who can read his face, and he also found something wrong with his father, so he couldn't help frowning and asked: "Father, what's the matter, did something happen at home?"

Master Jun shook his head, looked at his son with a jade face, and heaved a long sigh in his heart.His father passed away too early, and Mr. Jun's impression of his father will always be only the shadow of smiling and leaving home. The old lady always said that Shiro looks like the old man, and I don't know if the old man is like this...

Mr. Jun couldn't help being slightly dazed. At that time, the Jun family had no head of the family, and he was still young. If the old lady hadn't gritted her teeth desperately to survive, and lost face and begged the Jin family for help, they would have been orphans and widows. I'm afraid my mother can't bear such a big family business.Master Jun sighed, and asked, "Shiro, what do you think of the imperial examination?"

Jun Changning was slightly surprised, and subconsciously said: "Sooner or later, the exam will be taken, but father, didn't you say before that I am too young, even if I pass the exam, I will only gain a good reputation, but I will not get it." It’s affordable, the Holy Majesty may have forgotten me in a few years, it’s better to wait a few more years, at least when I can go out and do errands before taking the exam.”

This was also two years ago when he was eight years old. Cheng Yuewu believed that he had nothing to teach this child. Jun Changning was savvy, and he was not as playful and impatient as a real child, so he naturally learned faster.He knows his shortcomings. Apart from learning martial arts, he has been studying hard all these years. After all, he has a vision far beyond the present for thousands of years. When writing policy theory, even Cheng Yuewu can't fault it. The only fault is probably the occasional point of view. Too novel.

At the beginning, Cheng Yuewu thought about letting this child try it, but Master Jun and Jun Changning thought about it for a while, and still felt that the exam was of no benefit at this time, except for gaining a good reputation. It is necessary for him to get a talent name, so he did not take the scientific examination two years ago.

Master Jun naturally knew this truth. If the old lady's health hadn't gotten worse, he wouldn't have brought it up again: "That was then, and now is now. Your grandma didn't allow us to tell you that years ago she Had a serious illness, although he is cured now, but according to the doctor's opinion, I'm afraid..."

Jun Changning was taken aback, and his face showed a bit of worry. After coming to this world, the person who loves him the most is probably the old lady Jun. When he thinks that the old lady may pass away soon, he will feel bad.Master Jun sighed and said: "If it is carefully raised, it should last for a few years. I am afraid that she will get sick again. You also know that the old lady loves you the most. You know that you will take the imperial examination in the future. I don’t know how happy you are. Waiting for you to come back after taking a test."

Jun Changning began to understand that what Master Jun meant was that the old lady had only one wish in her life, thinking that her little grandson could get the honor in the exam, if he was sure, he would take the exam in the next year, and the old lady would be able to do it even if she went. Peace of mind.Thinking of the old lady's love for him, Jun Changning didn't have any reluctance, and said immediately: "My son feels that he is somewhat sure, and he will always get a fame back."

Master Jun nodded after hearing this. In fact, if you really want to take the exam, you have to wait until autumn. With Changning's ability, there is basically no problem in passing the scientific exam held by the province's education and political tour. At least you will be a scholar and get a place You can go to the township examination. If you pass, you will be a candidate. If you don't pass, he is young, so it doesn't matter.

To the old lady, being a scholar is a great thing, Master Jun said again: "Go and try the township examination first, it will be the best if you can pass. It can be regarded as fulfilling the old lady's wish. Then you can study for a few more years, It’s just right to go directly to the meeting.”

There is one more thing Mr. Jun didn't say, that if the old lady has gone in the past few years, Shiro will definitely have to keep her filial piety, and it will inevitably delay the imperial examination. How many people have delayed their lives because of the word loyalty and filial piety.

Junjuro nodded, but when he saw the old lady again the next day, he couldn't help but look at it carefully. At this time, he realized that the old man was already full of hair. Even when he hugged him, he would inevitably feel tired. Also, if the old lady is energetic, How could he only let himself accompany and talk for a while and then said that he would take a break.

Jun Julang secretly blamed himself for neglecting his family members. When he looked again, he found that whether it was Master Jun or Mrs. Zhang, there were already signs of time on his face, and the changes of his sisters were even more enormous. Come down, thinking that I can't be the kind of person who only sees the result but ignores the process.

When he came back to the academy again, Jun Juro worked even harder, which made Ji Hong very worried. He couldn't help but grab the person who practiced calligraphy and asked, "What's the matter? It wasn't you who used to say that you were tired. Combining Yi and Yi, why are you studying desperately right now, if your body breaks down, it won't be worth it."

Jun Juro rubbed his brows. He was not familiar with the ancient imperial examinations, and he was always uncertain. He just thought that the more he read, the better it would be. Now he looked at some messy words on the desktop. Feeling that he was in a good mood, and he was not a person who turned around, he smiled and put down his pen, and said lightly: "I am going to take the scientific examination this autumn, and I am a little worried."

Ji Hong raised his eyebrows, and asked again: "Didn't you say before that you would go later?"

Jun Changning briefly explained the reason, and Ji Hong fell silent. After all, this involved filial piety, so he had no way to dissuade him, but Jun Changning asked, "Don't talk about me, why don't you go?" Give it a try, with your talent and learning, you must be more confident than me."

A trace of complexity flashed across Ji Hong's eyes, and then he said with a wry smile: "It is impossible for me to take part in the imperial examination in my life." In his capacity, if he really went to take part in the imperial examination, it would be a direct slap in the face of Prince Chun, and he would not do so today. It may be reused for him. Compared with ordinary people, his road is actually narrower.

Jun Changning didn't ask the reason. Over the years, he vaguely guessed some of Ji Hong's identities, and he felt a little worried. After all, Ji Hong's ambition is definitely not someone who prepares for the mountains and fields for a lifetime. If there is no way of imperial examinations, his life will be Naturally, it is more difficult.

Speaking of this matter, Ji Hong thought of the letter he received last month, and couldn't help but frown even tighter. He didn't believe that Prince Jin let him go back because he missed his son. If he guessed right , probably because Yan Zuo finally got into trouble in the palace, was kicked out by Jinshang, and his other sons were useless, so he thought of himself.

Ji Hong's eyes kept changing, and Jun Changning sighed, stretched out his hand to hold his palm, and said with a smile, "Just like me, no matter what happens, I will always take the imperial examination, and I will try my best to make myself more successful in the future. It would be the best if you can glorify the lintel, and do everything you can. Brother Ji, no matter what you want to do, I will always support you, but when you take this path, don't embarrass yourself. If you’re not happy about walking, there’s no point in going on.”

Hearing this, Ji Hong's eyes warmed slightly, he smiled and stroked Jun Changning's hair, and when he saw the child's puffed cheeks, he squeezed it with a smile, and said as if he was satisfied with the feel of his hands: "Got it, you are so young! I love pretending to be an adult so much, those who don’t know think you are my big brother, and a child should act like a child.”

Jun Changning raised his eyebrows, but he just shook his head and said in a strange manner: "Hey, if some people don't live up to expectations, we don't need children to solve it."

Ji Hong raised his eyebrows, and picked up the child who should be spanked without talking, and the two of them immediately laughed and quarreled.

30. parting

The laughter in the room slowly rippling away, adding a bit of popularity to the deserted courtyard for no reason, and the two people standing outside couldn't help but smile, Cheng Yuewu touched his hard-earned memory Beard, said with a smile: "It's rare for Shiro to be so childish, but he can pretend to be an adult in front of me."

Standing beside him was Ji Guangsi who hadn't appeared for a long time, but at this moment, Ji Guangsi's face was a little older,
