Jia Yu came back a little early today, and arrived home just after noon. Jia Jiu, who was in the back, listened to the girl's report, and hurriedly hugged his younger brother and took his two nieces out to greet him. Standing outside the Hanging Flower Gate, I saw Jia Yu holding something in his hand from a distance, and the little guy behind him was also carrying a big box.

"The daughter greets her father." When Jia Yu approached, Jia Jiu hurriedly hugged his younger brother and saluted his father, and Zhang Qian and Zhang Qing in the back followed suit.

Jia Yu let her daughter get up, looked at the two nieces and granddaughters who were following her daughter, and said, "Hey, why are you all at home?" Don't you accompany the old lady? Girl, is this the time for you to learn housekeeping with your cousin? ”

Jia Jiu said: "Father, the old lady's spirit is not very good today, so she let her daughter come back early." The old lady also said that when her father came back, she would let her father come over. ”

Jia Yu frowned and said, "The old lady let me go?" The old lady has always been at ease with me, this is not a year, what does the old lady tell me to do? Could it be that there is something wrong with the second room? Yes, it must be the big girl who grinds the old lady and wants to go to the flower puja, and the old lady can't be tortured by him, so this is called the father's past. ”

Jia Jiu said: "How does my father know that the eldest sister grinded the old lady for two days before the old lady changed her mind?" ”

Jia Yu said: "I have been a brother with your second uncle for so many years, and I have watched your second aunt win the favor of the old lady step by step, watched him get the right to be a housekeeper, watched him fill his pockets and watched him fall to this day." Speaking of which, the big girl is really a species of the two of them, the same has not many brains, and the same ambition. Don't even know to hide. He wanted to go to the Flower Festival, not because he wanted to have a chance encounter. And then hit a noble person to give yourself a beating? He didn't want to think about what the flower puja would be. If you have such an idea, you don't have to insult people's places! Like his mother, he is a master who is not afraid of retribution! Stay away from him in the future. The same goes for you. ”

Jia Jiu and the Zhang sisters hurriedly responded.

"The old lady also said today that she would let her daughter and nieces go to ask for peace on the fifteenth day of the new year, and they don't have to go at ordinary times."

When Jia Yu heard this, he was furious: "Which one is stirring up behind this?" Only let you pass on the fifteenth day of the new year! Wait a minute, what did that Baoyu do? ”

"Father?"

Jia Yu waved his hand and said, "You are my daughter, even the big girl can't go past you." Able to make such a decision for the old lady. There is only Baoyu in the second room. You're eight years old, you're not a child, and it's not for you to go around your knees all the time. Moreover, Baoyu's life is also limited, and it is understandable that the old lady wants to take care of it more. It's just that I'm worried that as time goes by, the old lady will get farther and farther away from you, just like back then. ”

Jia Jiu hurriedly pleaded guilty: "It's all daughters, it reminds my father of these unhappy things." ”

Jia Yu took her daughter's hand. Said: "Who made us a big house?" That's it. The two of you probably don't know that Baoyu is very pampered by the family, and she has all kinds of problems, and eating the rouge on the girl's mouth is an open secret at home. Now my brother doesn't know, and even the old lady doesn't care. You two should also be careful not to get too close to him. lest you ruin your own reputation. ”

Zhang Qian and Zhang Qing hurriedly responded.

Jia Jiu said: "Father, what else do you say?" I told my two nieces about it. They also said: Fortunately, Sister Yun was there yesterday and held Baoyu. Otherwise, Baoyu would have broken into their bedroom. ”

Jia Yu snorted and said, "If such a thing really happens, everyone in this mansion will blame the two of you, but Baoyu will not lose a cold hair." Pay a little more attention. By the way, Baoyu doesn't like the career economy, and he doesn't like the Four Books and Five Classics, these things you often talk about, once or twice, he can stand it, after a long time, you still hang these on your lips, and he will avoid you. By the way, now give you a little Zhuangzi, and it is inconvenient for you to have no people who have no use in your hands. Then this backyard will be yours to call in. You also joined hands and put on a copper-smelling coat for yourselves, and see if that treasure jade still haunted you. ”

Zhang Qian and Zhang Qing hurriedly responded.

Jia Jiu also responded, but said in his mouth: "Father's appearance is a little angry. ”

Jia Yu shook his head and said: "Some people are like this, if you are polite to them, they will take your courtesy as a matter of course, and if you don't know how to restrain it, you have to make inches." Such people should not be polite to them in the first place. I've suffered such a loss, and you can't fall on it again. If there's anything, tell me. If the old lady makes sense of this, you also push me, I have a point. ”

"Yes."

This time, Zhang Qing sincerely saluted Jia Yu.

Although it is said that being picked up by the Jia family completely changed the fate of the two sisters, the impression left by Jia Yu in the original book is too deep for Zhang Qing, absurd and lustful, ruthless and unrighteous, indifferent to his own children, it can be said that he can't find a good place. But really living in Jia's house, after these days of observation, Zhang Qing has to admit that Jia Yu still has something to offer. At least, if Jia Zheng is here today, he won't say such things, on the contrary, it is already polite to give you a bad face, and scolding you for something is his usual way of treating his children's younger generations.

At this point, Jia Zheng is slightly better than Jia Zheng, Jia Zheng doesn't know how to teach children at all, and he doesn't know how to deal with his children's younger generations, and he can't even pretend to be good. Relatively speaking, Jia Yu will not be wrong in terms of face, but his sincerity and care are only for the people he cares about. If you don't get his approval, or if you break his heart completely, he will never look at you a second time. And in the entire Jia family, only Jia's mother can tolerate Jia Yu all the time. As for the others, it would be nice not to be angry with him.

Jia Jiu said: "Father, I don't know when this year's Ming Arithmetic Course will be held, will my brother participate in this year's Ming Arithmetic Course or next year's Ming Arithmetic Course?" Shouldn't we be ready for our brother? ”

Jia Yu said: "Your brother's foundation is too thin. Although there is no need to test the strategy of the Ming arithmetic subject, this subset of scripture and history must always be familiarized, otherwise this first scene will brush him down. This year's Ming Arithmetic Course was held before the Chongyang Festival after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I didn't expect him to be able to go this year, I just wanted him to go down and give it a try, get familiar with the atmosphere of the examination room, and prepare for the coming year. ”

Jia Jiu said: "Then we should also get ready." The clothes to be worn on the day of the exam, the basket of pen and ink for the exam, and the snacks to bring in. I've heard that there are rules for all of this. ”

Jia Yu said: "Yes." In the end, the Ming Arithmetic Department is not as good as the Jinshi Department, like the palace examination of the Jinshi Department, and the candidates do not need to prepare this ink themselves. If you are lucky, you can also get the favor of the Holy One. The Ming Calculation Department does not have the qualifications to hold a big competition in the Jinluan Palace, even the soldiers who are responsible for guarding the Gong Yuan are not as good as the Jinshi Branch. Jinshike can enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister, and it is rare for the Ming Arithmetic Department to be a feudal official. Alas, if it weren't for the world, I wouldn't have asked your brother to take the arithmetic exam. But Jinshike, he really didn't have this life. Girl, your brother has been mistaken, if he can do things and be a man, and he is the eldest son of the family, he will not be much worse in the future. But your brother can't be more wrong. I will enlighten him in the coming year. Mr. or something, you just can't find the best one, and you must have a good character and teach children. ……”

Jia Yu has already delayed a son, and the rest of the one, he doesn't want to be calculated by others. Regarding this little son, he has been thinking about it for more than half a year, and it is this teacher that he has also begun to look for. It's just that Jia Cong is too young now, and now he invites his husband to come to the house and ask the Confucian to help take care of the children.

"Girl," Jia Yu just wanted to call her daughter, but remembered that her daughter still didn't know a few words. Jia Yu had to temporarily change his words and said, "Girl, I know that I have been wronged in this matter." When the matter of the ancestral hall is settled, I will invite you a better female gentleman. Not only what your aunt and your eldest sister have learned, but also the female red that girls should learn, all of them will not be left behind. I just want to see how the two girls in the second family, and the treasure girl, show off in front of you! ”

Jia Jiu blushed and said, "Father, the eldest sister and Sister Bao are very good. ”

Jia Yu said: "You don't know when I don't know? Fortunately, it was a few of you who suffered, but the credit was taken by them, and when it was over, you were reprimanded by the old lady. In this kind of thing, one of them is more powerful than the other, and you are better than the other, and they are still regarded as good people when they are wronged. If you want me to say, it really made the old lady expect. If you continue to be close to them, you may be sold one day and count the money for them. ”

Jia Jiu didn't dare to respond. Jia Yu then remembered the box he was holding in his hand, and said: "Passing by the old Kanji Silver Building today, it just so happens that people are launching new jewelry, I see that the fritillary tortoiseshell jewelry is very attractive, I chose three sets for you, one set per person, and there are some scattered pendant rings, you can keep them for yourself to wear, or use them to give away, all of them." ”

In Jia Yu's hand is the gold-sprinkled jasper hairpin he specially picked for his daughter, and the big box in the hand of the little guy in the back is the mother-of-pearl clams, tortoiseshell jewelry, pendant rings and other jewelry. Jia Yu gave the box in his hand to his daughter, flicked his sleeves, and said, "Now I'll go and say hello to the old lady, and you can go back too." As he spoke, he left without waiting for his daughter to send him off. Jia Jiu and the Zhang sisters were sent to the door, and then they came back.
