Salt courtyard yamen, small study.

West Chamber.

Jia Qiang looked intently at the title of the art making question on the paper, and frowned slightly.

Respect the matter and then eat.

The meaning of this sentence is that those who are in power should first do their part well, and then think about their affairs.

Jia Qiang remembered that the annotation on this paragraph in the "Notes on Zhu Ziji" was: A gentleman is also a gentleman, and those who have officials and guards cultivate their duties, and those who have words and responsibilities fulfill their loyalty. It's all about respecting me, and you can't have the heart to ask for mercy first.

Since this is the case, then the solution to the problem must be explained from the annotations of Zhu Ziji:

The gentleman is to cultivate his job and not seek his own merits.

After writing and figuring out, this sentence points out a total of three points: the gentleman's man points to the king, cultivates his job and respects his affairs, and does not seek his food after his order.

In this way, the meaning of the question is clicked, and there is no missing question, which can be regarded as a successful problem.

Of course, such a breakthrough is just a matter of following Zhu Ziji's notes, and if he lacks his own opinions, it is difficult to be considered excellent, and he can only be regarded as Zhongping.

Writing current texts, solving the problem is the most difficult and the most important, since Jia Qiang has successfully solved the problem, the next article will be completed in one go.

After writing it, I read it again before I got up and handed it to Daiyu, who was changing the text of "The Legend of the White Snake" not far away.

Daiyu wears a white round-necked robe with light pink bamboo leaf satin trim, sitting on the edge of the table, holding a pen in her hands, moving the pen without hurry, and her handwriting is beautiful.

At this time, when Jia Qiang handed in his homework, he first glanced at him, smiled lightly, and then corrected it seriously.

The ancients changed the volume, drawing circles where they wrote well, then drawing triangles, and then verticalizing again, and crossings at the end.

The cross shows that you don't know anything, a vertical means that you barely pass, the triangle can still be seen, and the circle is the best.

Jia Qiang saw that Daiyu barely drew a triangle at the place where he broke the problem, and then the remaining part was mostly seen "one vertical", sometimes it seemed that he wanted to cross it, but he endured it again and again, and finally drew an oblique vertical ......

In the end, Daiyu looked up at Jia Qiang and said with a smile: "It's okay to solve the problem, but it's not enough to undertake the problem and divide the shares, but all in all, it's already a lot of progress." ”

Hearing this, Jia Qiang took a deep breath and sighed, "It's not easy......"

After a pause, he asked again: "This question, if Aunt Lin is here to solve the problem, what should you do?" ”

After thinking about it for a while, Daiyu wrote: "The sage talks about the righteousness of people and ministers, but he commits suicide without seeking profit. The husband is for Lu, not for the king. ”

After writing, I felt satisfied, and looked at Jia Qiang with a pair of clear and beautiful eyes.

I saw Jia Qiang standing there expressionlessly, her eyes faintly sad and angry.

"Poof!"

After Daiyu laughed, she said angrily: "Brother Qiang, you don't make trouble!" ”

This is the advantage of Chang Junxiu: if you make a good-looking expression, you will be happy for those who can look at it, and if you make a bad expression, you will feel cute and interesting.

On the other hand, it is ugly, and practicing the best expression in the mirror is just making people feel ugly and cute, and accidentally showing a bad expression is in response to the old saying that ugly people make more mistakes.

Jia Qiangsheng is quite handsome, although she pretends to be weird, but in Daiyu's opinion, it is very interesting.

Daiyu smiled beautifully, but Jia Qiang shook her head helplessly and sighed, annoyed in her heart.

How to describe it?

He realized that solving the problem was already considered a success, but compared with Daiyu's problem-solving, it was like ......

It's like in his previous life, he wrote a street song in the porch, which can be used by the square aunt to be happy.

What Daiyu wrote, on the other hand, is a serious and elegant work that can land in the Vienna Hall, and the melody and connotation are all the best choices.

It's two different things entirely!

How can this keep Jia Qiang from being hit......

Seeing him like this, Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled lightly and persuaded: "Don't be like this, you have only been studying seriously for a few days?" Being able to write like this is already a primer. Think about it, you could have written such an article without my father's guidance? Although it looks mediocre now, it is okay to solve the problem, although the topic and share division are still worse, but they are also presentable, and they are not as eye-catching as before. No matter how diligent you write and practice, you can still do a good job. ”

When Jia Qiang heard this, the shame and loss in her heart had long since disappeared, and she looked at Daiyu and smiled: "Am I really that powerful?" I also think I'm much better. ”

Daiyu glanced at him with disgust when she heard this, and teased: "Phew! That's it, and the tail (yi) is coming again? ”

Jia Qiang smiled, skipped this section, and asked with a smile, "Aunt Lin has finished writing the manuscript?" ”

When Daiyu heard this, she snorted and ignored this shameless nephew.

Originally, I watched him write a story, but after urging two changes, it became Jia Qiang to write a small outline, and then she started to write.

This is not filial, but there is still a face to urge!

Jia Qiang didn't care either, and said with a smile while taking the big paper to prepare for the practice of calligraphy: "The bookstore I read before has already been settled, and now it is being reorganized, and it will be able to start construction in ten days at most." Aunt Lin, don't be slack and lazy! ”

"You're lazy!"

Daiyu didn't want to say angrily: "There is only this fold left, and it can be written in three days at most." ”

Jia Qiang was surprised and sighed: "Oh, Aunt Lin actually wrote so fast? Could it be that it is like the cool breeze outside the house, and it is twenty or thirty thousand words when it blows? ”

Dai Yu laughed angrily: "Nonsense again! I will teach you a good lesson today, and you will know ......."

Daiyu put down her pen, picked up the wild duck feather duster from the side, and was about to come forward to teach Jia Qiang a lesson, but saw Zijuan, Xiangling and Xiuzhu coming in from outside.

Xiuzhu is the girl next to Aunt Mei, and she helps Aunt Mei take care of all the things in the Yamen of the Salt Courtyard together, so she is also a little decent.

Seeing them come in, Daiyu naturally brushed the corner of the table with a wild duck feather duster, and then put it down, seeing Jia Qiang looking at her with a smile, she glared at him angrily, and asked, "Why did you get together?" ”

Zijuan also learned from her master, glared at Xiangling, and then laughed angrily: "Xiangling is stunned, she doesn't do anything in the morning, just follow me and read poems, how can I understand this?" I can't drive it away, and I don't know what calculations I have in my heart. ”

Xiangling firmly denied: "I didn't! ”

Xiuzhu ignored these and told Daiyu a "good news", and said: "My aunt asked me to come and talk to the girl and the second master, and the Qi family sent someone to send a post, and in the afternoon, the old lady and the third girl of his family will come to the house as guests, so that the second master and the girl can prepare." ”

When Daiyu heard this, she naturally sneered again and again, and her small eyes glanced at Jia Qiang, full of sarcasm and teasing.

The third girl of the Qi family is the favorite granddaughter of the old lady of the Qi family, Qi Taizhong, except for Qi Yun, the real pearl of the palm, and she is only thirteen years old this year.

What Jia Qiang cared about was: "Nonsense! It has been 20 years since the old lady of the Qi family passed away, how can there be any old lady in the Qi family? ”

Xiuzhu tugged at the corners of her mouth, looked at Jia Qiang with strange eyes and said, "The Qi family said that the old lady of the Qi family is an old aunt who is right......"

it!

Is this old thing so expensive?

But it's no wonder that the head of the Qi family, Qi Wannian's wife, that is, Qi Yun's mother, died early, and now the wife of the Qi family is a continuation, or the daughter of the Bai family, and Bai Ziqing's aunt.

Qi Taizhong naturally couldn't send the Bai clan here.

The other two daughters-in-law are serious, but their names are not right, and they are not the wife of the family who comes to visit, how can they represent the Qi family?

That's not for guests, that's for revenge.

Therefore, Qi Taizhong had to be a veteran, and this kind of approach, the respect for the Yanyuan Yamen and Jia Qiang was instantly raised by more than three levels.

And he did it......

"Humph!"

Daiyu snorted coldly, and didn't know where Jia Qiang offended her, so she stood up, turned around and left.

Jia Qiang said, "What's wrong?" ”

Daiyu didn't bother to pay attention to him, but Zijuan explained with a smile: "The girl is also troublesome, but it's not good not to entertain." No, I'm going back to prepare with my aunt......"

Daiyu paused, looked back at Jia Qiang, and said with a blank look: "You provoked it." ”

With that, he slammed the door and left.

Jia Qiang smiled, as if she had accepted this reason......

However, he still has some dislike for the Qi family's stubbornness.

He is a person who is determined to take a different path from the Qi family, although Qi Taizhong is low-key, he has not shown up much in the past twenty years.

But the Qi family is still in full swing, and it is one of the few high-ranking families in the south of the Yangtze River, and almost everyone knows that his family is rich and rivals the country.

This kind of style, in Jia Qiang's view, makes it clear that one day it will become a fat pig and make people go under the knife.

Jia Qiang is different, even though he is ready to build a wide range of foundations, but in his own right, he will choose to be truly low-key.

Most of those industries will not let people know that they are his.

At present, it is not a highly developed information society in the previous life, there is nothing new under the sun, and it is almost impossible to hide anything from those who have a heart, and it is impossible to hide it from the top level......

But right now, as long as it is properly operated, it can indeed be concealed and the vast majority of the power can be hidden underwater.

Then do what you want to do.

Jia Qiang once said to Daiyu that although he was working hard to earn gold and silver, the purpose of his money was only to do things after having gold and silver, not for the gold and silver itself, otherwise, he would be controlled by gold and silver and become a puppet of gold and silver.

In fact, power is the same, strive to have power, because with power you can protect yourself, you can do things better, but you can't indulge in the sense of arbitrariness that you can do whatever you want if you have power, if so, you will also become a puppet of power, and you will do whatever it takes to obtain more powerful power, and eventually you will be defeated.

The Qi family actually had the appearance of wanting to control their power, but they still didn't do it after all.

The title of the head of the eight salt merchants put the Qi family in an extremely dangerous position.

If it weren't for his support, the Qi family would not have been able to pass this level anyway.

Moreover, if the Qi family does not change its previous style, even if it can be transferred overseas, the wealth that cannot be transferred from home will still be looted after all......

This is the difference in the number of paths, so Jia Qiang is reluctant to get too close, so as not to burn herself.

He thought that his attitude was clear enough in the Qi family's thatched cottage, but for some reason, the old fox of the Qi family would still do such a thing.

……

In front of the Yamen Gate of the Salt Courtyard, on the Wenjin Bridge of the Wenhe River.

The two carriages, escorted by seven or eight captains, slowly crossed the bridge and stopped in front of the corner gate of the Yamen of the Yanyuan.

Youchang stepped forward to hand over the name of the master, and then bowed down and said with a smile: "My lord's surname is Xue, and now he is temporarily resting in Guiya to recuperate, and now he is ......."

Menzi didn't wait for him to finish, and nodded hurriedly: "Oh, I know, I know, Tietou and that Uncle Xue have told him twice, saying that the Xue family is going to come to serve ...... Okay, you wait, I'll tell you what. ”

"Okay, thank you, big brother, you take this ......"

As he spoke, he took out a red envelope from his arms, but although Menzi's eyes were hot, the rules of the Yanyuan Yamen were really big, and he didn't dare to accept it, so he could only grit his teeth and call someone.

In the carriage, a delicate girl who looked like a girl in the painting looked at a pale woman sitting next to her with a sad face, and whispered: "Mother, when we arrive, we can see my father and brother......
