Chapter 896: Self-blame

Hearing the eldest brother say this, Gong Yu immediately cheered up. He knew that the eldest brother was not the kind of person who had no purpose and talked about others at will, if it weren't for the fact that there was really something incredible in Zhao Rong's family, the eldest brother would never ask himself so many words about Zhao Rong.

He had doubts in his heart just now, and now the eldest brother finally has to tell himself about his considerations. Thinking of this, Gong Yu couldn't help but cheer up and listened carefully to every word Gong Jian said.

Gong Jian pondered for a moment, summed up the language, and then said: "First of all, I think the strangest thing is, of course, this afternoon, when the Wang housekeeper of Zhao Rong and his family came, his attitude towards Zhao Rong was really a little weird.

You also said that Zhao Rong is the only sister-in-law in the family. Then, the servants in the family should be very respectful to him, but although there was nothing wrong with that Wang butler on the surface, it could be heard from between the lines that there was not much respect for Zhao Rong. ”

Hearing the eldest brother say this, Gong Yu carefully recalled his every move, word and deed since the housekeeper Wang entered the door in the afternoon. At this time, he also realized that since he heard that Steward Wang was asking Zhao Rong to go home, he had some thoughts, so he didn't notice how wrong Steward Wang's attitude towards Zhao Rong was.

Now after being reminded by the eldest brother, he immediately realized, yes, that Steward Wang did not have much respect for Zhao Rong.

Gong Yu nodded hurriedly, signaling that he had heard it and agreed with the eldest brother's opinion. At the same time, he also knew that the eldest brother definitely didn't just have this to say, so he was just quiet, waiting for Gong Jian's next words by the side.

"The second point, of course, is what you said, the contradiction between Zhao Rong and his personal servant Xiao Tao. In fact, if you think about it, the main key point of the contradiction between the two of them lies in the object of Xiao Tao's report, the old lady of his family, that is, Zhao Rong's father and mother. ”

Perhaps because he was afraid that Gong Yu would not think of this, Gong Jian explained to him carefully: "If it weren't for Zhao Rong's parents, after listening to Xiao Tao's report, they interfered with and controlled Zhao Rong's behavior, so that Zhao Rong had to go against his will and do things according to their wishes." Then I don't think Zhao Rong will have so much disgust and hostility towards Xiao Tao's behavior. ”

At this time, Gong Yujian's explanation, Gong Yuxiao understood this. Yes, if Zhao Rong's father and mother didn't react much after listening to Xiao Tao's report, or they just cared about Zhao Rong's life and inquired about the things around him, then it would be impossible for Zhao Rong to have too much reaction to Xiao Tao's behavior.

It is indeed like his eldest brother's analysis, only Zhao Rong does things, just because Xiao Tao will report to his parents, and in turn, his parents will ask or interfere with his words and deeds, which will make Zhao Rong feel that he is very depressed at home, and there is no way to do things and talk as he wants.

Thinking of this, Gong Yu couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his head. What can be more depressing and depressing than my father and mother interfering with my words and deeds. At this time, he really started, and he was a little worried about Zhao Rong's life after returning home.

Thinking of this, he eagerly looked up at Gong Jian, wanting to get some comforting words from him. But to his disappointment, Gong Jian had already begun to speak out more of his suspicions.

"One more point, that is, as you mentioned, although Zhao Rong rarely mentions his family, when you mention me and my little sister, Zhao Rong's expression is very envious. Then it also shows that he is actually looking forward to being able to get along with his brothers and sisters. I had guessed that either his siblings didn't get along well with him, or they rarely got together. And then it proved that when he was studying, there were only two people, him and the old gentleman, and there were no classmates of the same age, and his brothers and sisters did not study with him. Then it can only show that he is usually at home and rarely has access to his siblings. ”

After saying this large paragraph, Gong Jian pressed his eyebrows, which were a little faintly swollen, and then said in conclusion: "Although there are different concubines among the high-ranking families. But no matter what, the siblings are still passable on the surface. And you also said that he also has a sibling sister, so normally, he should not lack time with his siblings. But on the contrary, what Zhao Rong showed was that he had never gotten along with his brothers and sisters. In this case, can you not make me feel suspicious?"

Don't talk about Gong Jian now, even Gong Yu feels very suspicious. He thought about it again, when Zhao Rong introduced his brothers and sisters, he only passed by a few words, but he didn't say anything about getting along with any of them. No matter what, there are so many brothers and sisters, close and close, and there are always one or two who get along well with Zhao Rong, but Zhao Rong never mentioned it.

As the only sister-in-law in the family, should there be other brothers and sisters who should be taught separately? But no matter how much they teach separately, they should get along with each other on a daily basis. But looking at Zhao Rong's reaction, it was not like this at all.

Just when Gong Yu was still thinking about this question, Gong Jian had already begun to continue: "The last point, of course, is the problem of Zhao Rong's studies. It stands to reason that his teacher is a famous Confucian, and Zhao Rong's enlightenment is not late, and the learning time is not short, so it is impossible for him to be so shallow in knowledge. ”

Of course, Gong Jian paid attention to it, when the three of them talked together, when his second brother used to chat with him, he would occasionally use an idiom and quote an allusion or something. This afternoon, however, that has not happened at all. The second brother has been speaking in a very straight vernacular. His second brother has changed his habit of talking, it must not be because he grew up with him, as the eldest brother, then it can only mean that his second brother is taking care of Zhao Rong. “

And Gong Yu is not outstanding in terms of knowledge, but can only be regarded as a solid foundation. But at such a level, it is necessary to force Zhao Rong to change his speaking habits. It can be seen that Zhao Rong still has a long way to go in terms of knowledge compared with his second brother. But the second brother only went to a private school for a year.

Zhao Rong's level is completely impossible for a great Confucian to teach. What's more, this great Confucian is responsible for Zhao Rong's enlightenment, and has been teaching him for nearly ten years, how can he teach such a student who is about the same level as an ordinary bookkeeper.
