old lady in red

The reason why Shi Mei ordered to increase these hard dishes is because the children have to practice for an hour at noon every day before they can have lunch.

If you don’t eat well in the morning, you won’t have the energy to practice at noon.

These early raw materials, although they cost a lot of money, are very labor-intensive.

Dairy cows are produced by their own cows and need special staff to take care of them.

Shi Mei also asked the shepherd boy to learn how to play the flute.

Cows have a sense of well-being and milk production is more nutritious.

Zhang's Jia Min both want to give birth.

Shimei prepares to raise children scientifically.

It is planned to add milk to the grandchildren after eight months.

Pigeons are also raised on Cuiwei Mountain by themselves.

This also needs to be served by a dedicated person.

Of course, Shi Mei raises pigeons not only for eggs.

Rouge rice, green rice, and oats are all produced by Yutian.

The cold rice fields contain a thin aura.

The growth cycle is long and the nutritional value is high.

A stone of rouge rice and bimi rice costs four or five taels of silver, and there is no market for the price.

The fresh meat in the fresh meat bun is not ordinary.

The pork and chicken that Rongfu's family eats every day are all raised by themselves.

This piglet is no ordinary pig.

It is a new method of raising pigs invented by Zhang Jue.

It is the offspring of wild boar cubs that were caught and raised and crossed with domestic pigs.

The raising method is also different.

Piggy is not kept in captivity, does not eat swill, and is raised like a sheep, looking for food by himself.

Of course, in order to facilitate the piglets to forage, the open space in the orchard is filled with sweet potatoes and yams.

Piggy shoots whatever he wants, and the rest will be reaped.

Then, Shi Mei also ordered that the herd of pigs must be driven away regularly every day, so that the piglets could wander all over the mountains and plains, looking for food freely.

This kind of pig has less fat and more lean meat.

Shi Mei named it 'Sports Pig'.

This kind of pork produced in Rongfu is now sought after by noble families.

Raising pigs is not like raising pigeons and chickens. Cuiwei Mountain can't raise them, so they have to be transported from the Eastern Province to Beijing.

What a waste of time and effort.

After Jia Zhu and Jia Lian were ordered to set up a new account, they felt that the family was too wasteful.

Both came to remonstrate with Shi Meina.

"Grandmother, my grandson thinks there are too many companions in the private school. Each person is almost 100 taels a year. One companion for each of us is enough!"

Shi Mei patted the two good grandchildren.

"It's good that you can think of throttling.

However, this is different.Some things cannot be wasted, and some things cannot be saved.

Like our Rongfu, even if you are in debt, you can't wear tattered clothes.

This is the dignity of the court.

Another one is that education expenses cannot be saved.

why?

Education is the foundation of a century-old plan, and knowledge is needed for everything.

Needless to say, to be an official, you must be a Jinshi on the second list.

Doing business also requires knowledge, you have to be able to keep accounts, and you must know the tax system of the imperial court.

Otherwise, tax evasion and tax evasion will be found out by the court, which will violate the law.

To be a military officer is not only good at martial arts, but also knowledgeable.

A general who leads troops to fight must understand the art of war and strategy?

In a word, all walks of life need culture.

Therefore, this education expenditure cannot be saved. "

Jia Lian raised her eyebrows and asked in a low voice, "But do you need so many companions?"

Shi Mei smiled, this kid still knows how to avoid taboos.

Shi Mei said: "Reading with you? Let me ask you, what do you mean when everyone gathers firewood?"

Jia Lian said: "I know, it's just that there are more people and it's easier to work."

Shi Mei nodded: "Yes!

In the future, you will take on the heavy responsibility of starting a family and starting a business.

As the saying goes, two fists are no match for four.

Look, how many people are there in our family?

Pearl, your father invited the house cleaner, the craftsman, and an old gentleman, Shan Ziye.

What exactly are these people doing?They are all your father's helpers, and with the brainstorming of these people, your father's errands can be run perfectly. "

Jia Zhu nodded: "Understood!"

But Jia Lian said, "But Second Uncle invites outsiders, so there's no need to waste time and effort in cultivating him from an early age..."

Shi Mei smiled and said: "Well, that's a good question. If you need someone, you can hire someone outside, why waste time and effort.

There is an old saying here, which is called fighting with brothers, fighting with father and son.

Do you two know what this means? "

Jia Zhu and Jia Lian nodded together.

They know this: "This is called the same spirit!"

Shi Mei nodded: "Yes!

Lian'er, when your father goes to the south of the Yangtze River this time, in addition to the soldiers provided by the imperial court, he also has to choose a few brothers from the clan.

Of course, it would be best if he brought his brothers to Jiangnan.

It's just that your second uncle is going to be an official, so he has no free time.

Therefore, your father had no choice but to select capable brothers from among his clan relatives and bring them with him to be stewards and soldiers.

The housekeeper knows what to do, so I won't say it.

What does the soldier do?

It is to pass orders, letters, and personal guards for your father.

Why choose clansmen who are connected by blood? "

Jia Zhu and Jia Lian said together: "Fight brothers, fight father and son soldiers!"

Shi Mei nodded and said: "Besides that, there is another one is support. As your father's personal soldiers, the tribe not only has a salary, but also a corresponding official rank, although they are not popular at the moment.

However, once the opportunity arises, officials can be transferred from official to official. "

Jia Lian said: "The grandson knows, just like Uncle Jia Mei."

Shi Mei smiled: "Children can be taught. Then, let's discuss now, should we reduce the accompanying reading?"

Jia Zhu and Jia Lian said together: "Grandmother is right, so I don't want it."

Shi Mei said: "Don't think that they are taking advantage of you by entering the mansion to study. They only take advantage of it for a while, but they will help you for a lifetime in the future. Therefore, for these brothers who are going to help you for a lifetime, you have to..."

Jia Lian said, "Treat them better..."

Shi Mei nodded: "When we take them into the mansion to study, we treat them kindly, this is our sister-in-law helping them.

However, when you communicate with them, you must treat each other with sincerity.

A hero with three gangs.

You are going to do great things in the future, in addition to being united as brothers, you also need helpers who are willing to follow you sincerely. "

Jia Zhu and Jia Lian blushed a little, thanks to the fact that they thought this was a terrible deal just now.

But it turned out to be just a small pattern of three melons and two dates.

The two bowed together and saluted: "Thank you for your teaching, grandma."

Shi Mei nodded: "In fact, this kind of human nature is so sophisticated, it is recorded in the book, and there are relatively successful models around you.

Pearl, your uncle Wang Ziteng is very experienced in employing people.

Lian'er, your grandfather and uncle also have a lot of experience in this regard.

Their talents, knowledge, and style are beyond compare to their grandmothers.

When you have the opportunity, you should learn more from them.It's called..."

Jia Lian rushed to talk again: "The one who is near Zhu is red?"

Shi Mei shook her head: "No, this is called a family teacher, and it is also called a famous teacher who produces a high-ranking apprentice!"

As a result of Shi Mei's teaching like this, apart from Jia Zhu and Jia Lian getting along with their companions in the private school, the relationship became closer.

What's more, Jia Zhu and Jia Lian visited their ancestral home more often.

Because of Shi Mei's reminder, every time Jia Zhu and Jia Lian go home, they will write down what their uncle and grandpa said in a small book, so that they can be easily read next time.

Shi Mei learned that she was secretly proud of herself, but in fact, according to the strict division of feudal families, Jia Zhu, Jia Lian and Wang Ziteng, Mr. Zhang, were not counted as family masters.

At best, it can be regarded as cheating and stealing.

Of course, it's another matter if the two are willing to accept disciples.

Master Daobi in Jia Amnesty's entourage is

A descendant of the Zhang family recommended by his father-in-law.

The knowledge of this junior has come to an end.

It is better to follow Jia Amnesty as a think tank than to be a scribe with the two young masters of the Zhang family.

Jia Amnesty got His Majesty's permission to bring a Lang team's personal soldiers with him.

He also bestowed Jia Amnesty on four dark guards with high martial arts skills.

Jia Amnesty knew that the so-called secret guards were His Majesty's cronies.Following Jia Amnesty, of course, will also protect Jia Amnesty's safety.

However, these hidden guards all have the right to give His Majesty the secret seal.

Of the 100 soldiers, Jia Amnesty was going to select some of the scouts his father had left for him.

Good steel is used on the blade.

Going out of Beijing this time is Jia She's first battle after attacking the prince, so he must go all out.

Jia Daishan left his son with a team of scouts at the beginning, but only half of them were in their prime.

The remaining half, like Jin Da, who are over [-] years old, are old, and most of them have already received the honorary support of the Land Production Mansion.

Jin Da is to give the helm to his son Jin Shan, and he still stays in the mansion.

In addition to the thirty scouts, Jia Amnesty, at Shi Mei's request, planned to select some young and strong members of the clan for training.

According to Jia Amnesty's mind, he would rather bring all the children with him, and deal with the disobedient.

However, I dare not ignore my mother's teaching.

Shi Mei's reasons are very good, and the positive spirit of the people must be mobilized.

It is necessary to improve the sense of ownership of the tribe.

You have to lead the tribe to fight for the top!

Since he brought him to the capital, he had to find a way out for him.

Therefore, Jia Amnesty decided to choose ten to twenty members from the family.

The so-called one person attains the Tao and ascends to heaven.

When you become an official, you always have to promote your family.

From the ninth day of junior high school, Jia Amnesty discussed with Jia Jing and asked Jia Jing to recommend some available people.

It seems that both of them feel that because of the comfortable life of the Jinzhi people, most of them are discouraged.

Not to mention ten out of ten, almost most of the people are looking forward to the relief of Yizhi, which is a kind of food waiting to die.

It's not as aggressive as the children from Jinling's hometown.

Furthermore, the clansmen knew that Jia She was selecting followers, so they came to ask frequently, and they all wanted to follow Jia She to be an accountant or something.

But Jia Amnesty is not a kind person.

In terms of talent and learning, he doesn't like any of the children of the tribe.

This is not to blame the clansmen, he doesn't even look down on his Jinshi brother Jia Zheng.The only one who can look up to everyone is Jia Jing.

However, people need help when going out, and slaves cannot hold public office.

For example, Jia Amnesty's secretary, the Marquis of Yu's grain and fodder officer, must be trusted to be competent.

In Shi Mei's mind, at least she must have a reputation as a scholar, so that she will not be so embarrassing when promoting her clansmen in the future.

It's a pity that at the beginning, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng were all masters who ate and waited to die.

Let alone backstreet people?

Fortunately, there are no illiterates in Jia's family, so they don't know how to read books.

However, as long as it is passed through Jia Dairu's hand, the handwriting is very good.

Jia Dairu's method of teaching is rote memorization.

Literary skills are about the same.

Shi Mei said: "You are a military officer, so when you choose your own soldiers, you naturally choose those with good physical fitness and high force value."

However, Jia's private school does not offer martial arts courses, so the value of martial arts is out of the question!

Shi Mei said helplessly: "It depends on physical fitness. You lead the team yourself, and all the children who are willing to participate in the election for the soldiers, with a stone of rice on their backs, run from here to the top of Cuiwei Mountain, and then run back. You can choose as many people as you want Cut it off personally."

When Jia Amnesty heard this, it hit his heart.

The clansmen should have beaten and beaten long ago.

He can't study, he can't learn martial arts, but he wants to do business but is afraid of delaying the imperial examination.

Lame □□ yawns loudly, will he pass the exam?

When Jia Amnesty went out, he stood on the porch of the flower hall in the front yard and ordered: "Listen, everyone, I will choose personal guards today, and those who are capable will live in them.

Regardless of the writing generation, the jade writing generation, or the cursive writing generation, as long as you can afford a stone of rice and grain, follow me to climb Cuiwei Mountain and return, and the admission will be based on merit. "

The clansmen were speechless when they heard the words: "Do you still have to bear the weight?"

They are not working at all at home, and they followed Jia She to find a place to make money and enjoy the blessings of being the second master.

Which one is for hard work?

Jia Amnesty wanted to scold her mother very much: In order to take the martial arts exam, I spent three years climbing mountains and running with heavy loads every day.

What are you, how dare you feel tired?

But he held back, and said kindly: "You think that when you treat guests to dinner, you can just pick up chopsticks?

I am a military officer, and marching drills are a common thing. If I catch up, it is possible to fight a few battles with real swords and guns.

So, you don't need to be strong in martial arts, if you can't win a fight, you must always be agile and have the ability to protect yourself and escape, right?

You don't even know how to march or run, so why not just go home and pick up your baby, don't be ashamed of yourself here! "

Jia Amnesty said with a wave of his hand: "Those who are willing to participate in the selection line up to follow me to the warehouse to fight against grain, and those who do not want to participate, I will send you two mountains, and you will never enter the mansion again."

As soon as these words come out, who dares not to carry food?

Are you going to hang out in the future?

Even if you are exhausted, you still have to climb.

All the interested men, the brave ones, the cowardly ones, didn't dare to leave, and obediently followed Jia She to the warehouse to fight against the grain.

Jin Shan wanted to lead the team instead of Jia She: "Master, you just wait at the foot of the mountain, and the slaves will lead you up the mountain."

Jia Amnesty waved his hand: "It's okay, a man can walk like flying with six hundred catties on his back, that's nothing!"

As soon as these words were said, all the clansmen laughed in their hearts.

Uncle's seedling, but his fate is good, he was born in the first branch.

Dare to brag like this?

As a result, they trembled while carrying a bag of rice.

Jia She twisted a sack of rice with one hand, threw it over his shoulder, and strode away.

To be honest, Jia Amnesty couldn't fly with six hundred catties on his back, but two hundred catties is no problem.

Jia Shechi slipped away and ran up to the top of the mountain.

Then he crossed his hips and stared at the clansmen.

The clansmen all seemed to see ghosts.

After that, one by one started to climb the mountain in a fit of anger.

Ouch!

Most people really suffer.

Several of them were panting like cows at the foot of the mountain.

In the end, only seven people were able to climb to the top of the mountain with a hundred catties on their backs: Jia Xiao, Jia Zhai, Jia Fei, and Jia Ju, all of whom were side branches of Rongfu.

Jia Xie, Jia Yun, and Jia Xie are side branches of Ningfu.

Jia Amnesty's words were like a mountain, and he would rather be short than excessive, and only accepted these seven people.

For the rest, he was going to go to the Jinling clan to select them.

Among the clansmen of the Jinling old house, there are many young men who make a living on the street and on the wharf.

Jia She's errand this time, in addition to being loyal, he also needs to be flexible.

Shi Mei has been thinking about how to change the lazy and greedy habits of the backstreet people.

It was a failed attempt to encourage the clansmen to do business last time.

It never occurred to me that Jia Amnesty's selection this time was unintentional, and he hit the right track.

Because of this weight-bearing mountain climbing selection, the deeds of how Jia She practiced in Jinling spread among the tribe.

During the three-year filial piety period, Jia Amnesty, including Jia Zheng, never took a car up and down the mountain, but walked all the time.

The old lady also stipulated a time, and she must run home within the specified time.

But it turns out that the uncle's ability is not born, but accumulated little by little.

Jia Jing saw the right moment and asked Jia Dairu to add martial arts courses to the private school, any kind of training with swords, guns, swords and halberds.

In addition, in the future, students of ethnology must get up at the right time every day and run for an hour, and those who cannot persist will be persuaded to leave.

The private school does not raise young people who are just waiting to die!

Jia She, Shimei agreed, and the children of the tribe who couldn't insist on practicing early would cancel the free treatment.

Tuition fee of one or two silver per month, lunch at noon, all taken care of by oneself.

This touched the interests of the clan.

Families began to stare at the children.

If you don't get up when the time comes, you will kick out of bed directly, and warn that once you are expelled from the private school, you will become an apprentice, earn your own food, and don't let your family support you.

The boys go out to work and school, as long as they are in Kyoto, no one is ashamed to take a taxi.

Once anyone doesn't want to walk, they will be taught by their parents, and the brothers will say: "Are you more expensive than the uncle and the second master in the West Mansion?"

This is a later story, let alone mention it.

After Jia amnesty, ten clever corporal leaders were selected from Jinyiwei.

A team of ten long men.

These ten corporal leaders were selected by Jia She for himself.

Among the ten people, two are clan relatives, five are offshoots of princes and princes, and two are offshoots of Xungui.

These ten people have relatives who are officials in Jiangnan.

As the saying goes, many friends have many paths.

Jiangnan officials are monolithic, and if they want to open a gap, they must find a gap.

These subordinates may be that gap.

Furthermore, with these people following, everyone has the same interests.

Once Rongfu is attacked by political opponents, someone will speak for Rongfu.

The remaining [-] guards were all selected from Jin Yiwei's bodyguards.

Jin Yiwei was originally from the old battalion who had been selected for martial arts.

The family has been a military household for generations, and they have a ration when they land.

At the age of three, he began to practice ancestral boxing skills.

Not to mention one against ten, you can fight when you pull it out, and your hands are sure and ruthless.

In contrast, the children of the Jia clan who enjoy the same treatment are pussies waiting to die.

In a blink of an eye, the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

Jia Amnesty received a transfer letter from the Ministry of Officials and officially became a general in Hangzhou.

Lin Ruhai inspects the salt censor.

Yanhou Zhejiang is the inspector.

Then, Emperor Jiahe gave the three of them a half-month holiday, and after the first lunar month, they left Beijing immediately.

Then, eight guards from the Yellow Gate came to the Rong Mansion.

Emperor Jiahe sent Jia Amnesty's personal guards.

In fact, it is nearby supervision.

Jia Amnesty was stunned.

It was agreed at the beginning, His Majesty dispatched four guards in yellow shirts.

Then, the head of the guards gave Jia She a secret decree.

These four were for Lin Ruhai.

For Lin Ruhai, a civil servant, it would be too eye-catching for him to bring the big internal guards.

Following Jia Amnesty can be said to be to earn a future.

The status of the eight is quite high, including the nephew of Prince Yu, the nephew of King Zhongjing, the eldest son of Yuchang's son-in-law's mansion, and the nephew of the son-in-law.

The remaining four are the nephew of the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the son of the general of Fuguo, the son of General Zhu, and the son of Tongzheng.

All are members of the royal family and first-class bodyguards.

From the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, Jia Amnesty mixed [-] scouts, the seventh son of the family, with [-] Jinyiwei soldiers.

Let the ten chief commanders begin to train with Jin Yiwei.

The main purpose is to let the soldiers selected by the Rong Mansion feel the atmosphere of the large army.

Mrs. Zhang is in confinement here, so she can't work in the fields.

Shi Mei was only responsible for preparing the military supplies for Jia She's subordinates.

These can only be replenished at places, and those on the road must be fully prepared.

Shi Mei didn't interfere with the rest of the dressing and saluting, it was a matter of Zhang's room.

She can't move her hands but can use her mouth to direct.

However, the 25th of the first month.

Zhang Tete asked the girl to invite Shi Mei to talk.

But it was to select candidates for Jia She's side to serve.

Also the girl who warms the bed.

Mrs. Zhang asked which sister Shimei was going to send.

Shi Mei knew this.

Mrs. Zhang has always called Shimei's big girl, Amber Coral Jade Liuli, her elder sister.

Shi Mei had no such plan.

Now Jia Amnesty is going to serve as a general, not in jail.I will definitely be able to go back to Beijing to visit relatives during the holidays, why should I bring my little wife.

Shi Mei said: "He's going to work, and he will definitely return to Beijing at three o'clock and four. As for taking care of him, don't he have his own soldiers?"

In Shi Mei's heart, the soldiers not only pass orders and letters, but also serve as personal housekeepers.

The mother-in-law is not going to let someone serve by her husband's side.

Zhang is secretly happy.

Then the husband will only send people from his side.

This avoids being instigated, and the husband and wife are separated.

Happy, Mrs. Zhang turned her head to persuade her mother-in-law: "My daughter-in-law knows that a mother loves her daughter-in-law very much.

However, if the family doesn't send anyone, the uncle's superiors and colleagues will definitely give him away under the excuse that the uncle has no one to serve him.

Mother, you think, how can the family members rest assured that the person sent outside is the other party's spy? "

Anyway, Shi Mei didn't quite understand Zhang's thoughts, nor was she ready to understand.

However, Mrs. Zhang insisted on showing Jia Amnesty the two second-class girls around her.

Why did you look for Shi Mei five days in advance?

It is to make these two girls walk the road in front of their families.

Why do you open your face to two girls at once?

It's inconvenient to prepare a girl, and another girl just serves.

Shi Mei was speechless, that's not eating, if I don't eat for a day, I will be so hungry!

These words are not suitable for a mother-in-law like Shi Mei.

Shi Mei had no choice but to say: I don't care, you can do whatever you want!

In person, Mrs. Zhang ordered the kitchen to set up two tables of banquets for the two maids, and entertain the servants and maids of the entire Rongxi Hall.

Shi Mei looked around Mrs. Zhang, there were two girls who had combed their hair, they were very young: "Aren't they two girls who are in the same room?"

Why bother to spoil people again.

But Mrs. Zhang said: "The two of them are one year older than the daughter-in-law, so it's not suitable."

Mrs. Zhang is two years younger than Jia She, one year older, and also one year younger than Jia She.

It became a waste game so quickly.

Shi Mei said: "You have to think about it clearly, the girl is open, and she is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, you are out of reach.

Go alone today, and return to Beijing in the future, it is very likely that you will bring your family with you when you come back. "

The skinny horse, who plays every time, sleeps when it sleeps, and Jia Amnesty will definitely not let the skinny horse have children.

A child born of a skinny horse will be laughed at all his life.

Jia Shen's pissing nature right now would not make such a low-level mistake.

However, Mrs. Zhang personally arranged that girls who passed Ming Road would have the right to bear children.

Otherwise, it is hypocrisy!
