Chapter 848: Twisting
When they were children, Zhao Rong and Xiao Tao still spent two happy years. Their relationship is also rising and deepening. Compared with ordinary servants, Zhao Rong has a lot of trust in Xiao Tao, if he has anything to say, he is willing to talk to Xiao Tao, and he is willing to do anything with Xiao Tao.
But gradually, as the two grew up, Zhao Rong was due to the fact that as he got older, his parents cared more and more about him. His parents made great efforts to invite the great Confucian to enlighten him, so Zhao Rong's time was suddenly occupied by a large chunk.
And when Zhao Rong was studying in the school, Xiao Tao did not accompany Zhao Rong, but Zhao Rong and Na Da Ru went to class, and others were not allowed to enter the school. This is mainly a request made by the great Confucian, after all, the old man likes to be quiet and hates having servants dangling in front of him, so the time to go to school is really a torment for Zhao Rong.
He didn't understand what the teacher said, what he said. Not to mention a room full of books, it seemed to him like a book from heaven, and the gray-bearded teacher often gave him a thick book, and then went to the side to read his own.
But if Zhao Rong is disobedient, makes some noise, or asks any questions, disturbing the teacher's interest in reading, then the little Zhao Rong will be punished. And the way that Confucian punished people was also very special. He would ask Zhao Rong to clean the study room he had used the night before.
The old gentleman was a great Confucian who was proficient in writing and ink, and he used a lot of pen and ink every night. And he himself is very lazy to clean up his study, so every time Zhao Rong makes a mistake, then he has to obediently clean up the study for his old gentleman. Not to mention sorting out his written words and painted flower rolls, he also had to carefully clean all the pen and ink used.
These jobs, for the little Zhao Rong, except for the first one or two times, there was still some interest, and then only numbness remained. It's really not that easy for a child to do.
This also has to say that Zhao Rong's personality has always been relatively lively, and when he was young, he was not subject to any discipline and restraint, so even if he was treated like this the day after tomorrow, he still could not extinguish his lively and agile temperament.
Therefore, Zhao Rong did not turn his temperament over the old gentleman, but Xiao Tao's side became more and more silent day by day. Originally, after Xiao Tao and Zhao Rong got along for two years, although the relationship between the two was still a master-servant relationship, the relationship was not so simple.
The two will also talk and laugh in private, and even, Zhao Rong will secretly tell Xiao Tao what is in his heart, and regard him as his friend.
But after Zhao Rong went to the school, Xiao Tao was also led by the housekeeper to his wife during the time when Zhao Rong went to the school, and was trained again. And it was this training that made Xiao Tao silent day by day, and he no longer played lawlessly with Zhao Rong as before. He always remembered his duty every day, and carefully served his servant duties.
Of course, Zhao Rong also sensed this change in Xiao Tao, but at that time, he was still busy dealing with the old gentleman with all his might, and he really didn't have the energy to take into account these changes in Xiao Tao.
And when Zhao Rong finally lost confidence in himself in his studies, he looked back and found that his small courtyard had also undergone earth-shaking changes. Originally, in the small courtyard, he could still feel a little comfortable, and gradually this only sense of freedom disappeared completely.
The most important manifestation is that that kind of agility has disappeared from Xiao Peach's face. If he whispered something to him, Xiao Tao was also listening to him, but rarely responded. And these private comments of his own often spread to his mother very quickly.
Just because of the private words she said to Xiao Tao in private, Zhao Rong was called by her mother to punish her more than once.
As mentioned earlier, his father and mother have always been silent about his education. But if Zhao Rong makes any mistakes, his father and mother can take turns to play and reason with him, and they must let him understand the rules that he should abide by. It wasn't until Zhao Rong finally admitted his mistake and promised that he would not make it in the future that the two could give up preaching to him.
But Zhao Rong is very afraid of his father's and mother's education methods. Although they don't treat themselves like other brothers and sisters, Zhao Rong is afraid of his parents.
In fact, when Zhao Rong was lawless and scurrying around the yard, he also peeked at how his parents taught his younger siblings how they taught them after they made mistakes.
When they make mistakes, they are scolded by their parents or, if they are serious, they are beaten. At that time, Zhao Rong thought that his parents were special to him. I love myself very much, so I will treat him in another way when I make mistakes.
But gradually, Zhao Rong was still very envious of his brothers and sisters, who could be treated like their parents. After his parents made a mistake, they did not scold, or even beat themselves, or even punished themselves for copying books, or went to the Buddha Hall.
However, he felt that those punishments seemed to be the sincere actions of his parents, and when his parents made mistakes to him, they just kept reasoning and preaching, and at this time, Zhao Rong always felt a numb and cold feeling.
When he was a child, Zhao Rong also asked his grandmother about this matter why he and his siblings were treated so differently. Grandmother always touched her head, looked at herself with loving eyes, and comforted the young Zhao Rong softly, "That's your parents' love for you." After all, you are their sister-in-law, and easily, they will not punish you. They value you more. ”
Feeling the warm feeling from his grandmother, Zhao Rong was also relieved and nodded obediently. Yes, the parents are so special to themselves, it must be because they value themselves very much, after all, they are their only sons-in-law. It must be because it's like this.
So after that, even if Zhao Rong felt that he hadn't made any mistakes, whenever his father and mother talked to him in a didactic tone, he realized that he must have done something wrong again, and he could only admit his mistake as soon as possible.
And in his life, the only time Zhao Rong resisted was because of Xiao Tao.
