Xue Jiazi

Lin Ruhai's study room is full of book fragrance as always, the kind of low-key luxury that Xue Pan likes most is brought to the extreme here, Xue Pan stares at the four treasures of the study on the desk and drools as soon as he enters the door.

"Oh, Uncle, your inkstone is good! This is the Seven Star Inkstone. The pen holder is made of ivory, which is a bit old, but it looks like a famous artist's handwriting. Could it be an old thing from the Ming Dynasty? And this, God, This ink is Lanxiang ink! Hey, it’s a new one. It’s an ancient recipe. Could it be that someone has found a recipe now?”

Xue Pan not only said, but also kept his hands, holding the ink and sniffing it under his nose, Lin Ruhai's eyebrows were raised several degrees, and Lin Daiyu, who came in to join in the fun, was lying in his father's arms, She also looked at Xue Pan in amazement, she was still young and didn't know much, so naturally she didn't understand what Xue Pan said again, but she just watched it very strangely.Lin Ruhai, on the other hand, was a little surprised by Xue Pan's knowledge. A little child can actually see the source of these things at a glance. This kind of vision is not necessarily possessed by ordinary adults. Maybe this is unique to the Xue family. education method?Not like it!This is something from the Four Treasures of the Study. Looking at the appearance of Xue Xun and his brothers, it is estimated that they may not be able to explain the origin clearly.

"Pan'er, where did you learn all this?"

Lin Ruhai didn't have to hide from Xue Pan, he just asked anything he wanted, and he didn't see anyone, but when Xue Pan heard it, his heart tightened. If he really had no way to say where he learned it, he really didn't. It was his talent, his golden finger, and the credit of Du Niang in his mind, but he couldn't say it!No one would believe it, so I could only find reasons for myself.

"Where else can I learn, the Xue family has a pawn shop, and there are a lot of things in the storeroom at home. I like to play with these. My father said that I am very talented in antique appraisal. Anyway, I can tell the truth by looking at it. Uncle, you Zhelin’s things look inconspicuous, but if you really take them out one by one, none of them are easy, look at this painting, eh, no, uncle, why did you make a fake one?”

Xue Pan said a few words, and immediately began to change the subject. He was lucky, but he turned around and immediately discovered the problem and found a new topic. Lin Ruhai's study actually hung a fake painting. It's not normal, could it be that student Lin Ruhai has also been fooled by others?

Hearing that it was a fake painting, Lin Ruhai became nervous immediately, and hurriedly hugged Lin Daiyu to look at the painting that Xue Pan was pointing at.

"How is it possible? This is Tang Yin's picture of the scenic beauty of mountains and rivers. I bought it for 3000 taels. How could it be fake? Many people have come to appreciate it, and they all say it is true."

Lin Ruhai doesn't believe it!How could he be wrong? He is not ignorant of this stuff. After all, he is from a noble family. Could it be possible that he can't even tell the truth from the fake?But at the beginning, he had already seen Xue Pan's appraising ability, which was outstanding at the beginning, and he was indeed very knowledgeable, so he was naturally a little hesitant. Fortunately, Xue Pan was just changing the subject, not trying to catch anyone's appetite, so he was very dedicated. He stepped forward to observe slowly, and groped the whole painting carefully, then touched the bare double chin with a fat hand, and said with a tense face:

"The scroll is right, it is an ancient object, and it looks like something from the Ming Dynasty, and the paper is not bad, but this painting is a little thinner no matter how you look at it, ah, yes, it must be like this."

Xue Pan's expression and movements at this time, if someone who has seen Detective Conan will definitely spit on his face, ya ya, he actually learned the shape of a cartoon pig's foot, it's too careless, but Lin Ruhai doesn't know ah!Still waiting for his explanation!

"Uncle doesn't know that there are many people who make fake paintings out there with sincerity, and all of them have made exquisite ones. For ancient paintings like this, because the paper is thicker, if the operation is good, one painting can be used by everyone. It can be divided into several parts, uncovered and turned into three or four paintings, each of which is still a real painting, but in terms of charm, because there is no thickness, it naturally lacks layers and becomes dull. I looked at it Uncle's painting seems to be like this, such thinness must make people divided."

"Layering? But, but this scroll, this paper, and the mounting are all right! They are all from the Ming Dynasty, and I specially let them see them."

Lin Ruhai was also a little dumbfounded. He knew there were fakes. For this reason, he looked at them very carefully. Can it be faked?It shouldn't be!

He was thinking about it, but on the other side Xue Pan spoke again, still offensively:

"People know this, so they also have a way to find a pair of old paintings of the Ming Dynasty, that kind of worthless, unknown old paintings, and expose the original paintings, and then leave a back sheet, Then paste this layered painting, isn't it seamless, no matter how you look at it, it is consistent, it is from the Ming Dynasty from the inside to the outside."

Hearing this, Lin Ruhai was also a little dumbfounded. He really didn't expect that even cheating could be done so professionally!Of course, Xue Pan didn’t really understand it very well, but there was nothing he could do. Who would let someone have cheats? He could tell the truth at a glance. He was also an online book fan back then. He hadn’t read any novels. What about those social media? What is missing, I don’t know how many similar novels I have read, and I can tell one, two, three, even if I don’t understand, at least to fool Lin Ruhai, it’s enough for myself to pretend that I have this vision.

It was rare to be able to shock Lin Ruhai, who he always believed to be omnipotent and the representative of a brand-new all-round good man, Xue Pan was very embarrassing, and couldn't help showing off again.

"Uncle Lin, I didn't say that, those people are really rampant. As far as I know, these people have become popular now, and there are even jingles that specifically say these things, saying that they are Suzhou films, Beijing teachers, and Jiangxi frames. , Yangzhou gang, Kaifeng goods, Changsha decoration, made by the back door, a stick of incense, specifically speaking, people in Suzhou will divide into pieces, and the division is to layer ancient paintings. The most powerful masters are said to be able to separate seven or eight layers. This craftsmanship is absolutely amazing. The Prime Minister of the capital is talking about fake paintings, and Jiangxi mounting is very good at imitating antique mounting. , It can be completed with a stick of incense, which shows how powerful they are."

Xue Pan spoke very happily. He was a little smug in his heart. He felt that he had surpassed Lin Ruhai in this aspect. Unknowingly, he felt that he seemed to have suddenly grown a bit taller, but he didn't see it. The smile is not a smile, if you see it, you must know that you have gone too far this time, what a pity!Money is hard to buy, I knew it earlier, this is not the case, Lin Ruhai also made a move.

"You just learned this? Is it possible that you are going to use this as a living in the future? What about your Four Books and Five Classics? Didn't you say that you need to take the imperial examination? Learning these heretical ways is probably a waste of energy. Come on, let's talk about it." Let me hear, how many books have you read and what have you learned?"

Xue Pan's heart turned cold, and he finally realized that it was inappropriate. Lin Daiyu's narrow-mindedness is not without root, it is completely inherited from Lin Ruhai!It's not like starting to settle accounts immediately, not everyone can give Lin Ruhai a crush, and there will be a price to pay.

"Let me recite all the four books, let me listen to them, and read a few more articles."

Lin Ruhai's expression was neither cold nor indifferent, he didn't even lift the corners of his eyes, but he seemed to be a different person suddenly, just like the uncle who was discussing calligraphy and painting with a little shock just now.This kind of Lin Ruhai instinctively made Xue Pan feel scared. Fortunately, he still knew how to talk. He didn't pee his pants, blinked his watery eyes, looked like a puppy, and whispered softly:

"That uncle, I, I haven't started learning composition yet!"

I have to say that Xue Pan's reaction was very fast. Compared with the arrogance just now, he also changed his appearance. Even Lin Ruhai thought it was a little funny when he saw that poor little look, but his face was full of surprises. Still keeping his composure, he just hugged Lin Daiyu, sat down beside him, and then continued to order unhurriedly:

"You have to write even if you don't learn. You can write whatever you want. Let me see how your writing is. I don't want you to write stereotyped essays and make policy theories. Why are you panicking? Weren't you quite proud just now? Since you are so confident, Come to think of it, such a small matter as composition will not trouble you."

Xue Pan thought: It's bad, I was too arrogant just now, after seeing Lin Ruhai's joke, I will naturally accept revenge, I am afraid that I am going to be unlucky, and immediately start acting cute again, there is no way I can save myself now with such a single hand.Who made himself a child! "

"Uncle, I, I, I was wrong, uncle, please forgive me?"

"Hey, it's just making a fuss. There's no way to talk about being unforgiving. There are so many thoughts in the children's family. Why is it possible that they don't want to be tested by me? Yes, maybe I think my uncle is not knowledgeable enough. Even You can even buy fake paintings, where can I teach you! Isn’t it?”

Xue Pan is about to break out in a cold sweat, what's the matter!Where did he have such a meaning, how good this is, he really didn't know what to say.I can only repeat with tears in my eyes, red eyes, and choked up:

"No, it's not like that, it's not."

At this time, Lin Daiyu also realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly grabbed Lin Ruhai's sleeve, looked at him with pleading eyes, and kept looking at Xue Pan, with pity in her eyes:

"Brother, daddy, brother, don't scold brother."

With Lin Daiyu interjecting, Lin Ruhai's face looked better, and his eyes towards Xue Pan became more gentle, which made Xue Pan feel relieved. Good sister, I can't wait to grab a few kisses and express my joy.

Seeing Xue Pan's forehead sweating, Lin Ruhai knew that the beating was almost over, and seeing his precious daughter's worry, he finally let go and said:

"You are a child, but you have learned something that others don't understand. You can be so flamboyant there. If you are so temperamental, you don't have to go out to socialize with people in the future. Going out like this is not socializing, but seeking revenge. Once Come down twice, I'm afraid you will offend everyone, go down and copy the Book of Rites ten times, and also write out the article you just said, let me see your background, and use etiquette as a problem."

Having said that, what else can Xue Pan say?Naturally, he respectfully agreed. At the same time, he also understood Lin Ruhai's advice. It wasn't that Lin Ruhai held grudges, but that he really saw his own problems and then gave him advice. This is also knowledge, and he is the person in charge The knowledge that must be taught is not in the book, but in the world.

Xue Pan only stayed at Lin's house for five days, but in these three days he fully realized what it means to be in dire straits and suffer unspeakably. Let's copy the book!

Fortunately, he still has a comrade-in-arms, an absolute class comrade, that is Jia Lian who has already arrived at the Lin family.He is worse than Xue Pan. At any rate, Xue Pan has learned a lot. From the age of five to the age of eight now, it is not for nothing, let alone just dawdling, but what about Jia Lian!You really grew up in a daze, or in other words, those two old women in the Jia family who had problems in their hearts deliberately grew up in a daze, what can you learn!Even that handwriting is not much better than Xue Pan, let alone learned.

"Brother Xue, I really didn't expect that you know so much. I'm really ashamed. Brother, I'm nearly ten years older than you, and I'm not as comprehensive as you."

Jia Lian is not the Jia Lian in the book. Since he was 15 years old, he has understood the matter of the second room, his own status, the reason why he was delayed, and he has seen clearly the right and wrong of the entire Jia family. A lot, just the problem of lust and greed, which has not been reflected in him so far. He is completely a kind and honest boy. Apart from not reading much and not having enough knowledge, there is really nothing bad about him. He even treats people well. There are still many advantages in life, and the housekeeper seems to be quite talented. After coming to the Lin family, although Lin Ruhai and Jia Min are good, it is a pity that this child did not study hard, but I also understand It's not his fault, it's Wang and the old lady who delayed him, they cherish him more and more, and Lin Ruhai is more attentive in teaching him with the intention of making it difficult for the second wife.This has made Jia Lian a big improvement now, at least he can read a few books seriously.

Of course, it is probably not very feasible to let him take the imperial examination. After all, he is already too young, and he missed the best time to study, and he can't keep up with his studies. Even if he can concentrate on studying, it is estimated that at most he can rely on his family's reputation. It sounds nice to be a kid or something.If one day he can get a scholar, it is estimated that God is absolutely blind, let alone in reading, Jia Lian really has no talent, although he will not get a headache when he reads the book, but he can only barely understand it after reading it several times .Not to mention asking him to make a fuss, don't even think about it.Fortunately, after all, Jia Lian is a child who can win the title, so he doesn't have to worry about his future. As long as he can learn more skills and gain more knowledge, he will not make any unwise choices due to short-sightedness in the future.

People who are not good at reading always have this problem, that is, they are more and more interested in those who are good at reading. This is not the case, Jia Lian is like this. He knows his own ability, that is, he is very self-aware, knowing that there are no imperial examinations. hope.So when I saw that Xue Pan was only eight years old, he could answer most of Lin Ruhai's exams and knew a lot of knowledge, it was absolutely enviable!He became more and more affectionate towards Xue Pan.

Even Xue Pan's ability to look at antiques amazed him. Of course, there are other factors. For example, Master Jia She is an expert who likes to play with antiques. Under his influence, Jia Lian is relatively knowledgeable in this respect. Looking at Xue Pan's ability, I understand the importance of this. I just think that this brother who has a relationship of [-] miles is really a great child prodigy. How many times did it go.

Being praised by Jia Lian, Xue Pan was not unreasonable, and immediately said modestly:

"Second brother Lian is talking about that. My younger brother is just an ignorant naughty boy. Now he understands only one or two things taught by my master. It can be called Zhouquan, but second brother Lian is considerate in handling things and treats people appropriately. My father always said to let me learn more from you! Learn more, if I am successful in the future, I will use it. It is definitely a real skill. A son of a family like you did not rely on the imperial examination to get ahead , socializing and entertaining are more duty-bound, unlike our family, the imperial merchants sound good, but after all, the family is not successful, and the family still thinks about my imperial examinations. If this is not the case, where is the need for such hard work .”

Xue Pan's words are definitely heart-warming when he speaks now!There is no way out, the lesson is too deep, and Lin Ruhai can't help it just once, he still dares to be arrogant, not only dare not, but he is courteous to anyone, and his words are even more polite No, I'm afraid I'll offend someone again.He reflected on it for a long time, and only started such a comprehensive transformation after analyzing himself in all aspects.

I have to say that the lesson this time made Xue Pan more cautious. From this aspect, Lin Ruhai has definitely worked hard!Or maybe it's a sideways attack. After all, Xue Pan's time travel was too smooth, and he was a little swayed. If he didn't do this for a while, he didn't know what would happen in the future!It turned out that Xue Pan was so arrogant that he didn't pay attention to the laws of the country. In fact, it was not because he lived a smooth life since he was a child.Although the current Xue Pan is not the previous Xue Pan, but if he is not allowed to suffer some setbacks, even if he knows how to measure in his heart, he may be harmed by a mistake, after all, this is an imperial society.

This time, he just learned a lesson by bragging in front of Lin Ruhai. This is because he is a child, and he uses the method of an elder. What if it is someone else?How will we deal with it?From the first night when Lin Ruhai taught him a lesson, he thought clearly, he had to know how to measure, he had to know how to hide, he had to know how to advance and retreat, when he had no capital and no qualifications, being arrogant was courting death!

After all, he used to be a man in his twenties, and he was relatively mature psychologically. It was just an opportunity, but a few words of advice made him change completely.For example, now, what he said, Jia Lian felt very pleasing to the ear, very comfortable, and became closer to Xue Pan, and only felt that this child had a destiny with him, knew his own benefits, and was worth making friends with.

"Brother Xue, it's a pity that you can't live in Yangzhou for a few days, and you have to go back. It would be great if you could stay longer, and we can get closer. I also have to ask for advice. Your family has been an imperial merchant for generations. Among other things, this property must be first-class. Brother, I also want to learn more. You also know that our Jia family has a large population but limited property. I also want to buy more. Some family businesses, so that we can increase income and reduce expenditure.”

"Second brother Lian said there, I'm just a child, what I can understand, it's my father who manages the family business, but if you really want to talk about this property, it should be easier for your family, after all, your family has Nobility, land property does not need to pay taxes, which is much better than our family, I don’t know how much more I can earn. It’s used there to learn from our family’s traveling north and south to earn a living.”

Xue Pan didn't want to say anything about business matters. After all, he was just a child, and it was too shocking to say it, but he was not good at not saying anything to Jia Lian. Thoughtful, of course, he also intends to make friends with the eldest son of the Jia family. After all, after Jia Amnesty returned the money from the treasury, separated from the second family, and had a bad reputation, among the four kings and eight princes in the capital, who would be in the future turmoil? Who is the least likely to be involved in the family, and who can live the most safely!That is definitely the Jia family's number one!Why?Just because their strength has been greatly reduced, and because of their bad reputation!So I won't be valued by those princes and win over!Without wooing, it will be easier and easier to be safe!Seeing that the family who already had the follow-up power would not be able to use it anytime soon, he naturally wanted to make a move first, so as not to get involved, so he gave an idea quietly and guided Jia Lian to think about the fields.

Jia Lian is naturally also a smart person. When he heard about taxes and property, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. He couldn't help but look at Xue Pan carefully. He only felt that Xue Pan said this on purpose. Pan's clear eyes, the genuine smile that day, didn't feel like it. Thinking about it this way, he couldn't help but smile, thinking that maybe he was overthinking, this child was just saying that, maybe Xue's family envied him I have a title in my family, so I blurted out.

Thinking of the title of the family, now that the dust has finally settled, and he no longer has to worry about being snatched away, Jia Lian felt at ease in his heart, and his back straightened a bit.Although the Jia family's reputation is indeed not good now, but Jia Amnesty has obtained almost all of the family business. As long as I can learn more skills from my uncle, even if I can't be an official butcher in the future, I can still protect the family business anyway. Yes, and thinking about what his father said when he came, asking his aunt and uncle to help him see his daughter-in-law, Jia Lian only felt that he was suffering so much now.Thinking of the younger brother's family of the Xue family, which seemed to be the same as his own family, they were people who were plotted by the Wang family, and felt that he should take care of him a little bit more, so he immediately said kindly:

"What you said is that my brother is confused. We should be satisfied with the tax exemption alone. It is indeed appropriate to buy more land."

Jia Lian wanted to say something else, but just opened his mouth when he heard movement at the door, waited for the curtain to open, and saw Lin Daiyu coming in with two maids, who were still holding a plate in their hands, and wafted faintly. The fragrance of milk, when Jia Lian smelled it, his face immediately changed,

"Second brother, brother Xue, I brought you goat milk."

Lin Daiyu had a sly smile on her face, she was not as innocent as an ordinary three-year-old child, she could clearly hear Jia Lian and Xue Pan's wailing in their hearts!

God, let alone whether the two of them like this goat milk, even if they like it no matter how much they like it, drinking it three times a day is unbearable, isn't it!This is revenge, Chiguoguo's revenge, Lin Daiyu herself has to drink it every day, and she is tired of drinking it, so she spares no effort to let everyone suffer with her, especially Xue Pan, because he came up with this idea, and he must do it himself Live!

Jia Lian suddenly felt that Xue Pan was really abominable. Who told him to come up with such a foodie? Sister Lin was also like a little devil, tossing people so narrowly.He is 17 years old, and it is not easy to argue with a three-year-old child. He would be shameless if he said it!How do you live this day!

Jia Lian and Xue Pan's complexion was not good, they frowned, held the bowl, looked at each other sadly, then closed their eyes, poured it into their mouths resignedly, they clearly heard Lin Daiyu's crisp laughter!

"Okay, for the sake of sister Lin's cheerful laughter, I will endure it!"

Xue Pan thought about it righteously!
