Yuan Chun came to Jia's mother for Mrs. Wang to intercede. Shi Fei'er saw that Yuanchun was filial piety, and it was not easy to attack, so she just put two sentences and asked her to give it to Mrs. Wang.

Yuan Chun was already smart and listened to Jia Mu say this, but he was a little overwhelmed. It would have been self-conscious to intercede by yourself, but if you go back and spread this, it will be a bit like accusing your wife. How to say this?

Seeing this, Shi Fei'er pulled Yuan Chun to his side and said, "So you know, there are some feelings that you shouldn't ask for and can't ask for?" Yuan Chun's face was embarrassed, and he nodded with a red face.

Shi Fei'er continued: "The purpose of this punishment is to let the injured person get some comfort and compensation, so that the person who made the mistake will not dare to make it again, and at the same time set an example. ”

Yuan Chun looked at Jia Mu and blinked, "Yuan Chun understands what the old lady said. But Yuan Chun was anxious after all. As a daughter, she couldn't bear to see her mother punished, so she hurriedly interceded for his wife. ”

"That's what it means to be human. If you take care of your wife's face and worries, and are willing to share in it, your heart is good. You don't know what happened to you, and you don't know why you're punished. Shi Fei'er said slowly: "If you know that there is a mistake, if you are not caught, you naturally can't control it." But since he has been caught, there is no reason for him to go unpunished. If you always look at the face of love and punish slightly, wouldn't it be to encourage the arrogance of this wrongdoer. Shi Fei'er paused and said slowly: "Therefore, I said that this plea also depends on the division of things." If you plead for mercy if your interests are damaged, I think it's okay, and you can give this face. ”

Yuan Chun lowered his head when he heard this: "The old lady taught me that Yuan Chun will not have a next time." ”

It is best to plead for others with your own face, so that the punishment will be lighter, and it will not do the wrong person any good. If they do it again in the future, will the begger's face be trampled on by him on the ground? Shi Fei'er clapped her hands and asked the maid to send a snack, and said, "You don't have to pay too much attention to today's affairs." I can tolerate people to make mistakes, once or twice, I will tell you to make it clear, and if I make a mistake again, don't worry about me turning my face at that time. ”

At this time, where did Yuan Chun still have the heart to eat cakes. Xiao frowned and asked Jia's mother: "Old lady, today I will forgive Yuan Chun for not knowing the matter and rashly pleading." I'll advise my wife when I go back. ”

Shi Fei'er smiled and patted Yuan Chun's head and said, "This is very good, I only hope that your wife will not live up to your filial piety." ”

Yuan Chun went back with a lot of worries. When I went to Mrs. Wang's room again, I saw that the box was no longer visible on the table, and I thought that Mrs. Wang must have taken the box away. At this time, his face was not as anxious as before, and he was a little calmer. Yuan Chun asked for peace, thinking about how to speak, and then listened to his wife: "Didn't you just come, why did you come again after a while?"

Seeing that his wife was busy, he remembered that he hadn't gone to the old lady to say hello after school today, so he went over to see it again. Yuan Chun saw that he mentioned Jia's mother, and his wife was obviously nervous.

"How is the old lady?"

"Very well, I'll sit back for a while. The mother and daughter asked and answered, but they each avoided what they wanted to say. After a moment of silence, Yuan Chun thought about it and said to Mrs. Wang: "I went to school today, and Mr. told a very interesting story, so can Yuan Chun talk to his wife?"

Mrs. Wang didn't have the heart, she looked at Yuan Chun and waited for Yuan Chun to leave, she would be quiet by herself, and then think about countermeasures, but it was not easy to refuse when she looked at Yuan Chun and looked at herself. "If it's interesting, let's talk about it. ”

"There was a farmer who was drying paddy and was tired from a hard day's work, so he was napping on the side. One of them passed by, so he took the opportunity to steal some, wrapped it in his clothes, and left. When he fled, the farmer saw it, but did not catch up. Two days later, the man did the same and stole some more. But the third time, he was caught by the farmer, and the farmer wanted to send him to see the official, but the man begged bitterly that he had to support the old mother and young children because of his poor family, and he made a mistake after being confused for a while. Yuan Chun paused and said, "If it is according to Mrs., how to deal with this person?"

"Although this thief is hateful, it is not easy. It's better to punish a little, why bother to see officials. Hearing Mrs. Wang say this, Yuan Chun nodded and said, "I think so." But the gentleman said no. ”

"Why not? It's just a few handfuls of grain, and it's not worth a few dollars. Moreover, the man also did this because there were elderly people and children in the family to support. ”

"That's what Madame said, and I asked Mr. the same. Yuan Chun paused: "Mr. said, this is a mistake on top of a mistake." He stole the rice from people, and whoever he stole it for, it was all wrong. If you are caught, you should be punished for the mistake. If there is no punishment for mistakes, then there will naturally be people in the world who will follow suit. In the long run, the stolen one was speechless, but the one who stole was justified in it. After speaking, Yuan Chun secretly glanced at Mrs. Wang's face, and saw that Mrs. Wang's face was angry again, so he couldn't help but shrink his neck.

"There's no mercy at all. Mrs. Wang said angrily.

Yuan Chun paused and said, "I asked Mr. the same, and Mr. said that this mercy is a good heart, and it must not be abused." In this case, isn't it that the stolen farmer suffered even more, and was stolen three times in succession, and only caught the third time? If the thief has parents and children, is there no more of this peasant household? Why don't you know that he has worked hard for a year but has been stolen by someone for nothing, isn't that even more wrong?"

"Blame him for not being good at taking care of himself!"

"That's why I said it. When the gentleman heard this, he said that even if he was not well cared for, it was not a reason why he should be stolen. Besides, if you deduce that you have stolen something you like, and everyone does not condemn the thief, but blames yourself, how do you feel? Moreover, he has been stolen twice, which can be regarded as a punishment for him. ”

"What should I do if I follow your husband?"

"Mr. said that he should be sent to the official, this is the third time that this person is a habitual offender, and it is not a matter of a few scoldings. According to the laws of this dynasty, he shall be punished for the crime of stealing twenty times, and he shall be shown to the public with a flail at the entrance of the yamen for ten days. As for how to use it if it is stolen, there is no need to mention that it is no longer in the scope of this case. ”

"Hmph. You, gentleman, know the law very well. ”

Mr. told Yuan Chun: Knowing the law can curb greed, and making mistakes is punished and corrected. Don't add mistakes over and over again. After Yuan Chun finished speaking, he looked at his wife: "I saw that my wife was not looking good today, so I wanted to say something to relieve my wife's boredom." Yuan Chun said it badly, and his wife was not to blame. ”

"You said it so well!" At this time, Mrs. Wang could not understand the meaning of Yuan Chun, and said with raised eyebrows: "What have you learned on weekdays?" I think it's too indulgent for you on weekdays. I read less serious books, but the left side of the door is quite clear, and I went back to the room to copy the "Female Virtue" and "Female Quit" three times, and sent it tomorrow. ”

Yuan Chun was suddenly stupid. I thought about it for a long time before I made up such a story, which was nothing more than to persuade Mrs. Wang not to do the same thing for the third time if she did something that offended Jia's mother. But where did Yuanchun know that his story poked Mrs. Wang's heart every sentence, especially when she had to bring a flail to show the public at the end, she was so angry that she was about to vomit blood.

Yuan Chun felt very aggrieved in his heart, his eyes were slightly red, he saluted Mrs. Wang, turned around to leave, and suddenly thought that Jia Mu had not said anything he had said, so he hesitated for a moment and turned around and said: "Mrs. Rongyu, go to the old lady today, and the old lady asked Yuan Chun to give Mrs. a little word." The old lady said: After five years of Ansheng, the old things will be returned. Yuan Chun didn't know what he meant, but just sent the original words. I hope my wife won't be angry. After saying that, Yuan Chun turned around and walked out of the house.

Mrs. Wang was already angry, and when she heard Jia Mu say something like this to herself, she was even more angry. But he was angry, but at least he knew Jia's mother's attitude about this matter, so it seems that Jia's mother will not pursue it this time. If I didn't have this mind in the past five years, then the missing letter would have been sent back. Mrs. Wang's original irritable heart calmed down at this time. After thinking about this matter carefully, I felt that this move was not like Jia's mother's usual style, and someone should have interceded. Thinking about it, only Yuan Chun can intercede. But after thinking about it, he felt that Yuan Chun must have been instructed by Jia's mother to say this to him. This old lady is too shrewd, and she actually takes the opportunity to provoke the relationship between our mother and daughter! It is really unbearable! Mrs. Wang was angry in her heart.

In the past few days, Jiafu's family school is very lively, because Jia Yu and Jia Zheng discussed the rare book of the famous post to make an inscription for students to learn to rubbing. Because Jia Yu was active in this matter, the Quartet sought a rare copy of the famous post. This matter has been widely praised by the students, and all the celebrities in Beijing are also well known.

Later, I heard that because of Jia Amnesty, the Song Mansion dedicated the calligraphy and paintings that it had treasured for many years for it to copy. The inscription took a long time, and it is said that it took two craftsmen eight months to complete an inscription. The workmanship is fine, and the inscription does not lose the spirit of this authentic handiwork. Jiafu waited for the stele to be completed, and specially sent someone to pick it up, took the inscription, and ordered someone to carry it around the Song Mansion three times, and then took it back with joy after setting off the cannon. This stele was engraved into the family school, and more people visited.

There are also many celebrities who have learned from the Song Dynasty to dedicate rare books and monuments for them to copy, and those who are anxious to directly copy and carve the stele and send it personally. Jia Yu was happy, but seeing that there were more and more stone tablets, and the size was getting bigger and bigger, it was gradually difficult for the family to learn, and he was also worried.

After some discussion with everyone, it was decided to buy another house near the home school, just for the purpose of this inscription. If you have a yard, you naturally have to choose a name. It just so happened that the loyal prince also sent the stele to engrave, and when he saw that the stele was lined up in this courtyard, he built yì and called it the stele forest. The people listened and praised the name for its good achievement. Then he asked the prince to inscribe. Loyal to the prince, he couldn't shirk it, so he mentioned the three words of the Forest of Steles.

Because Jia Yu has been working this matter, he has spent the most painstaking efforts. Everyone gave him the title of curator. Jia Yu felt that he was good, and he called himself the curator when he came out and went in, and he was very proud.

Shi Fei'er knew about this matter quite late, and when she heard that she actually named this hospital "Forest of Steles", her heart trembled, and she secretly thought to herself, this is not that she deliberately snatched the name of the Forest of Steles Museum in the world.
