[Red House] Ban'er's Road to Imperial Examination

Wang Yue's proposal was approved by his parents, and Wang Gou'er drove Wang Yue to Jia's house early the next morning.

Although there are still several days before Mrs. Wang Ziteng's birthday, both of them are a little anxious. In their opinion, it is a bit late to prepare now, and they will naturally not allow Wang Yue to delay any longer.

When Wang Yue went to Jia's house, Jia Zheng was not there, and Jia Baoyu went to kneel in the temple. Lin Daiyu was lying on the bed because she was crying sadly at night and suffering from the cold. She had just taken medicine and was inconvenient to see guests.

Sister Sanchun was doing needlework with Li Wan. It was rare that there was no one in front of Mother Jia, and the old lady was not very energetic today, so Wang Yue just said a few gossips to her and left with a wink.

Leaving Mother Jia's room, he went to Mrs. Wang's place. Although he thought it would be enough to give away some of his calligraphy and paintings, he still needed to ask someone to ask, and Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue were the best. candidates.

When Wang Yue left, Xue Baochai was sitting idle in Mrs. Wang's room. The two of them were just chatting about some trivial matters at home. When the servant girl reported that Wang Yue had come, Mrs. Wang immediately smiled and said, "Call him in quickly."

Mrs. Wang used to attach so much importance to Wang Yue because of Jia Zheng's face, but this time because Wang Yue's test scores are really good, the old lady praised him many times, and because he passed the No.1 exam. The whole family's servants gave rewards, which greatly embarrassed Mrs. Wang.

In addition, a few days ago, Aunt Zhao's little hoof urged the master to invite her husband alone for that little beast. In fact, this matter has been talked about for more than a day, but Mrs. Wang used reasons to push it away before.

The reason is nothing more than because Jia Huan's sisters and elder brother have never asked for a husband alone. How can a younger brother surpass an elder brother or an older sister?Another point is that it is difficult to find a good gentleman, and you need to find out slowly, which is why Jia Zheng was blocked back.

However, if this kind of reason is used too much, it will inevitably appear that Mrs. Wang is perfunctory, and this time Jia Zheng was stimulated by Wang Yue's achievements as a junior, and his heart became hot, so he wanted to urge his children to study hard. His wife protected him, so it was not easy for him to intervene, so Jia Huan naturally fell into his eyes.

Aunt Zhao was simply a roundworm in Jia Zheng's stomach. Jia Zheng only showed his intentions slightly, and she already understood Jia Zheng's thoughts and brought them up.

Aunt Zhao is not very far-sighted, but in the past, the master always said that reading is important, and has been pressing Jia Zhu and Jia Baoyu to study, but Mrs. Wang is unwilling to let Jia Huan study, so Aunt Zhao thinks that reading must be a must. very important.

Moreover, she also saw with her own eyes that Wang Yue was just a distant relative of the Wang family. The first time he came to the house must be to fight the autumn wind, but because he was a good student, not only the old ladies liked him very much, but even the master praised him many times. It is even better to treat him very well, even better than treating his own son.

This is a very good example for Aunt Zhao, and she selfishly felt that if Jia Huan could read well, then the master and the old lady would also like him, and Mrs. Wang would not dare to bully their mothers at will. .

Another thing is, if the master invites Brother Huan to teach him to read, then the accountant must allocate money to him alone. Brother Huan is still young, so wouldn't the money just fall into her hands?

Adding up these three reasons, Aunt Zhao's thoughts arose in her heart, but she didn't dare to make a mistake in front of Jia Zheng, and was about to look for an opportunity to speak out slowly, but she didn't want Jia Zheng to show a little in front of him. Meaning, I want to invite Brother Huan to have a husband.

Aunt Zhao is the person who is the best at climbing smoothly. As soon as she sensed Jia Zheng's intentions, she stopped hiding her thoughts and brought them up immediately, which not only made Jia Zheng feel that Aunt Zhao was caring, but also made Jia Zheng feel that Jia Huan was quite eager to learn, and his dislike for him decreased by three points, and his love for him increased by three points. As soon as he left Aunt Zhao's house, he came to Mrs. Wang to make a request.

Mrs. Wang did not allow Aunt Zhao to teach Jia Huan well under her nose, but she couldn't refuse Jia Zheng directly.

But Mrs. Wang is superb in the end, but she said lightly, "There is a private school in the clan. Didn't Baoyu also study in the clan school in the past, not to mention Brother Yue also studied in a private school. Isn't Brother Yue doing very well in the exam now?" Good? It can be seen that it is important for a teacher to teach well, but it still depends on whether you are diligent or not."

These words convinced Jia Zheng immediately, and he was not going to ask Jia Huan to be a husband alone, but let him study in the ethnology.

Jia Zheng was originally a person who followed the path of learning in the mountains and working hard, otherwise he would not have forced Jia Zhu to study so hard at the beginning. This time Mrs. Wang's words just made him very satisfied, so he He nodded and said that he wanted Jia Huan to study in the ethnology.

Mrs. Wang has kept Jia Huan in the backyard for so many years. She suddenly let this little beast escape from her hands. Of course, Mrs. Wang was a little upset, but she was soon persuaded by her companion. In the backyard, Mrs. Wang would let him copy Buddhist scriptures at most. Although it delayed his study, Aunt Zhao protected him like an eyeball. There were so many people in the backyard that it was hard to find a chance to do it.In addition, if something happened to Jia Huan, he, the aunt, would also be responsible. Even if Mrs. Wang wanted to do something to Jia Huan, it would be difficult to do anything.

But it’s different now, when Jia Huan goes out to study, he must be accompanied by a servant with a long entourage, and he will buy one or two to lure him out to play, and after a while, he will be wild, and then let the master find him out He didn't study at all, but went out to play. At that time, he didn't have to do it himself, and the master could kill him directly.

Moreover, this matter will not be doubted on himself at all. Mrs. Wang is naturally very satisfied when she has the opportunity to get rid of a big opponent of hers and pick herself out.

Wang Yue played a lot of roles in it, Mrs. Wang suddenly felt that this distant relative was really her lucky star, and she was more and more satisfied with him in her heart. She was very happy to hear that he came this time.

Wang Yue went in, asked Ann first, and then sat on the chair. Mrs. Wang smiled and asked him if he came here. I was apprehensive about celebrating my birthday there, so I naturally wanted to come over and ask about the regulations, so as not to make a joke when I got there. Another thing, you should come here first and ask the opinions of the two aunts on how to arrange the birthday gift, so as to save time to send it unsatisfactory."

Mrs. Wang then smiled and said to Xue Baochai: "Look at this child, he is too careful. They are all relatives of our own family, and you are a junior. Why do you need to be so careful? Just give anything to make your uncle happy." It's gone."

Xue Baochai also said: "That's right, I heard from my mother that the second uncle has been praising you, and that this time it is a family banquet, and all the people who go are relatives and friends, as long as you go, there is no need for such a feast." Expenses?"

Wang Yue just smiled, these words were actually just polite words, if Wang Yue really went without taking anyone, I am afraid that the door of the Wang family will never be opened for him in the future.

Mrs. Wang and Xue Baochai also knew this truth, so they just joked, and Mrs. Wang said seriously: "The paintings you draw yourself are very good. Although my second brother is a military officer, he also asked Mr. to teach him when he was young." The one who came out was not an old man who could not read anything. Besides, your uncle was born in a scholarly family, and she liked those books and paintings very much. I remember that when she married my second brother, she brought a lot of There are fewer paintings and calligraphy coming in, you just send one painting."

Mrs. Wang had no reason to trick him, so Wang Yue made up her mind to follow what Mrs. Wang said. With confidence, he was relieved, so he also thought about laughing with the two of them.

Although Mrs. Wang has now handed over the power of the backyard to Wang Xifeng, there are some matters that Wang Xifeng still needs to go back to her before making a decision, and Mrs. Wang also has her own property to take care of, so the two of them just sat for a while, and Wang Xifeng was already They came over to talk about things twice, and another servant came to reply. Xue Baochai and Wang Yue looked at each other and offered to say goodbye. Mrs. Wang didn't keep them, and asked them to send them out.

As soon as he walked out of the door, Xue Baochai smiled and said: "Some time ago, my clerk went to the south to buy goods and brought a lot of specialties from there. I didn’t send it over, but I just have time today, why don’t you go with me to get it.”

Although Xue Baochai said that he was going to get special products, Wang Yue felt that it might not be that simple, but he was also very interested in what Xue Baochai wanted from him, so he nodded and said, "Then thank you, Aunt Bao!"

The author has something to say: This is from yesterday, I will make it up tomorrow afternoon today, and I will take the exam tomorrow morning, I hope I can get a good result in the exam!

ps: Thank you for your concern. I have already eaten. The street in my house is relatively old, and the drainage system is very sloppy. As long as it rains a little bit, water will accumulate. Fortunately, the accumulated blocks recede very quickly. I stopped for a while in the afternoon I hurried to the supermarket to buy food, and I ordered it again today, but this time I don’t have to worry about running out of food!
