The True and False of the Red Chamber

It took Fahai a few days to understand the laws of the current dynasty and the secular rules of this world. At the same time, he also knew that he had an official position, and he only asked for leave because he was ill.He didn't know anything about being an official, and when he went to the yamen to be on duty, he felt a little uneasy. Who knew that everyone in the yamen regarded him as an invisible person, and there was no need for him to do anything, as long as he was on duty and off duty on time. Now, he watched coldly, fearing that the glamorous Rongguo Mansion was not as beautiful as it looked.

In the final analysis, he is a monk who concentrates on his practice. He doesn't know anything about the court system, and he doesn't even know much about ordinary people. He can only fumble to adapt to a new life.

"The tea is cold."

Fa Hai studied the Buddhist scriptures in his hands, and said something without raising his eyes.

Jia Baoyu, who was dozing off behind him, woke up immediately, and frantically picked up the teapot and cups and went out to exchange tea. It took about a quarter of an hour to bring in the hot tea, and the back of his hand was red.He cautiously raised his head to look at Fa Hai, and saw that he was picking up the teacup by himself, his eyes were red, and he retreated to the chair and stood up again.

He has been doing this kind of job as a servant for three consecutive days. In the past, he was protected by his ancestors and surrounded by his sisters. If his hands were burned, he would have to train for half a month, but now there is no one to inquire. It made him very wronged.Thinking of Jia Mu's avoidance and Fa Hai's indifference and sternness, tears gradually filled his eyes, but he dared not cry in front of Fa Hai.

Fahai sipped the tea without realizing it, and didn't notice Jia Baoyu's fragile heart at all. In his eyes, his son was similar to his apprentice. Isn't it normal for an apprentice to serve the master's daily life?This Jia Baoyu is lazy and has no winks. It has been three days before he has to speak before he can move.If he hadn't discovered that Jia Baoyu did have some roots of wisdom, he wouldn't have wasted so much time.

"Baoyu, how are you doing with your books? What did Mr. Xueli teach you?"

Jia Baoyu thought that he was going to take another academic exam, so he felt tense, and said eagerly: "In the school...in the school, I taught..."

"Huh?" Fa Hai frowned and looked up at him, why couldn't he even say anything?

"Sir, he is sick, yes, he is sick, so I asked Jia Rui to take the class for him, mostly reading by himself."

Fahai thought of the private school where Xu Xian taught. There were six or seven teachers. The sound of reading aloud every day attracted many people to stop and watch. Why is there only one teacher in Jia Baoyu's school?

"Come on, follow me to the school to have a look."

"Ah? Oh, yes, master!" Jia Baoyu breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he wasn't punished, he didn't care at all what Fa Hai went to school for.

There were more than [-] students sitting loosely in the Jia Family School. Among them, only three or five were studying and practicing calligraphy. The others were chatting and laughing, and even threw books at each other to fight.

Fahai's eyes flicked to the corner, "Presumptuous! You actually have an obscene | dirty school, what should you do?!"

Everyone was taken aback by the scolding, and turned their heads one after another. Those who knew it immediately opened their eyes wide and lowered their heads to admit their mistakes, while Xiang Lian and Yu Ai, who were scolded by Fa Hai, turned pale and panicked. Good belts, although they just loosened their clothes, their intimate behavior is enough to expel them from the school, and they will not be scolded to death when they go home!

"Hmph! I don't know what it means! Where's my cousin?"

Jia Rui was sleeping on the table, but now he ran to Fa Hai in disgrace, and replied in embarrassment, "My grandfather caught a cold two nights ago, so he didn't come here. It's all my nephew's fault. Please forgive me this time."

Fa Hai stared at him, he avoided his gaze with guilt, and walked into the room with a cold snort. Jia Huan and Jia Lan respectfully greeted him, and Jia Baoyu followed behind and only smiled at Jia Lan.Fa Hai glanced at the books spread out on the table, he knew what was in his mind, and he stopped getting angry. He just said lightly, "In the past, it was the mansion who was negligent. How can there be only one gentleman in the Jia family school? I'm tired of my cousin." If you are sick, you should hire a few more gentlemen."

Jia Rui was in a hurry, "Second Master, if you have any dissatisfaction, just bring it up, my nephew will definitely tell a grandfather to clean up the school! This time it was really an accident..."

"Okay," Fa Hai shook his hand and interrupted him, "this matter is decided."

"Second Master, my whole family relies on my grandfather to teach me a living, please be accommodating, my grandfather will definitely be grateful to Second Master." Jia Rui gritted his teeth, and still said something similar to Fa Hai's unfilial piety.

Fahai raised his eyebrows and understood what he meant. He shook his head and said, "After all, this is the school of the Jia family, not Jishantang. Any behavior that endangers the foundation of the Jia family is not allowed." He turned his head to look at Jia Huan and Jia Lan. , "Pack up your things and go home."

Jia Baoyu was secretly winking at Qin Zhong, when he saw Fa Hai looking over, he was so excited that he didn't dare to make any small movements, followed behind Fa Hai and lowered his head, and went back to Jia's mansion.Fahai took them to find Jia Zhen first, and when they arrived, Jia Zhen was drinking and having fun with a few cronies. During the dinner, each of them had one or two women in their arms, which was simply unsightly.

Jia Zhen was drunk, and never got along with prudence. When she heard that he was going to rectify the ethnology, she said that she had nothing to do, so she agreed casually.It's just a trivial matter, the money to hire a few gentlemen is not enough for him to have a pot of wine, so why should he take care of it himself?

Therefore, the heavy task of rectifying Jia's family history fell on Fa Hai. Although Fa Hai figured out that there were also ghosts haunting the Ning Mansion, they did not hurt anyone. .

Back in the study, Fa Hai looked at the timid Jia Huan and the indifferent Jia Lan, and then remembered that "he" had a son and a grandson.When he lowered his gaze, he saw that Jia Huan's right fingers were red and swollen, and he frowned, "What's wrong with your hand?"

Jia Huan retracted his hand into his sleeve, "I, I accidentally touched it."

Eyes flustered, words flickering, obviously lying!

Fa Hai slammed the table, "Tell the truth!"

"It's hard work copying Buddhist scriptures for my wife!" Jia Huan yelled out loudly, his body hunched down as if discouraged.

Fa Hai was stunned, but Jia Baoyu was already shouting angrily beside him, "You! You slandered your wife! You must have accidentally touched it because of your fun!"

Jia Huan felt resentful when he thought of his molesting Caiyun, and glared at him angrily, "You are the one who slanders casually! Why do you say I am playful? Do you know how many scriptures I have to copy for my wife every day? My aunt will do it." Do you know how much work you do? Of course you don’t! You asked my sister to make clothes and shoes for you, do you think my sister is an embroiderer or a maid?!”

"I didn't! Tanchun gave it to me!"

"Yes! If you say something nice casually, my wife will ask my sister to do more. You are so innocent!"

"Okay, don't make any noise!" Fahai felt a little headache. Could it be that his experience was to teach the children in this house?Why are the people in this mansion worse than demons? "Copying scriptures is a good thing, as long as you are still young, you don't need to copy all day long. I will ask Mr. to come to the mansion to teach you. You just need to study hard in the future. By the way, you are too old, and you don't need to live with your mother. Baoyu, go and ask the servants to clean up a few rooms, you live next to each other, and you can just go to the backyard every morning to say hello."

Jia Baoyu was stunned, "Master, I have been living with my ancestors... and Sister Lin..."

"Shut up! Now we are talking about your studies, why mention your mother and niece?"

After Fa Hai gave him a cold look, Jia Baoyu didn't dare to speak out, so he could only reluctantly go out to call for someone.

Jia Lan watched with cold eyes, the corners of his mouth curved slightly in a mocking arc, wondering what this pedantic and hypocritical grandfather was up to, anyway, he just cared about studying by himself.
