Chapter 77: A Room Full of Spring
In the past two or three days, he asked Mrs. Xing every day "have you had a result", "have you been on the list", and "why haven't you come back", Mrs. Xing only promised, and asked Wang Shanbao once a day and ordered him to take someone to see the list.
A few small people came back: due to the considerable number of examination papers in the academy examination, and the rigorous assessment of the adults of Xuetai, they have already summoned the county magistrates of each county to help, and listened to the secretary of the Yamen that the magistrates of this county can only read the papers of that county, and Liu Xuetai is the gatekeeper...... In short, it is estimated that the results will be available in three days.
In this way, Rongguofu fell into waiting, and many people were waiting.
Of course, waiting is just an episode in their lives, and the masters of Rongguo Mansion are still not delayed, fully carrying forward the supreme life style of hedonism.
Jia Yu is also a little complicated, because Jia Baoyu was about to be cursed to death by Ma Daopo in the Red Mansion, and Jia Zheng, as his father, gave up, but Jia Yu didn't listen, and was still trying to save Baoyu.
However, the concept of the father as the son is deep-rooted and natural in the feudal family, and no one thinks it is unreasonable, because each of them has been like this since childhood, and this situation is revealed in Lai Mama's words: When Jia Jing educated Jia Zhen, he was also very violent and wanton, and it was passed down from generation to generation, and these "traditional virtues" were also fully continued, which fully illustrated the rationality and legitimacy of the deprivation of human rights in feudal society.
Not only women are a vulnerable group, but those who are sons in feudal society are relatively weak. Jia Baoyu also has a psychological shadow on Jia Zheng.
Naturally, there is also a layer of patriarchal concept, so Jia Yu's attitude towards Jia Cong is definitely higher than Jia Yingchun, and Yingchun is a commodity that can be bought and sold at any time for Jia Yu. Giving birth to daughters and adopted daughters not only expect not to repay their kindness, but also to pay money, for these inhumane people, they are unhappy and cold.
A deeper layer is Jia Yu, a loser, who spends money like flowing water, sits and eats empty mountains, little wives one after another, the descendants of Rongguo Mansion, who still has a title? Therefore, it is not so much that Jia Cong cares about Jia Cong, but that what Jia Yu does is an investment, hoping that Jia Cong will bring him benefits in the future.
And investment in this kind of thing has never been emotional: the accumulation of capital is bloody.
These are also what Jia Cong will have to deal with in the future. Naturally, Jia Cong can defeat Wang Xifeng, Jia Zhen, and Luo Xiucai, but for the stumbling blocks, he has always come to kill one and two to kill a pair, how can he be negligent in the way of the Qi family?
As a modern person, Jia Cong is not only a human being: because Zhang Juzheng is very good at seeking a country, not a career. After Zhang Juzheng's death, the eldest son committed suicide, the second son was in the army, and the third son was tortured, and he was almost dug up and whipped.
Jia Cong's goal is to surpass Zhang Juzheng!
……
The ruthlessness of the scorching summer is no less than the cold wind of winter and the severe frost of autumn, scorching the mansion, the cloister, the hall, and the Daiwa.
The small courtyard, which originally looked dilapidated and bleak, has been rejuvenated and dead wood has been rejuvenated since Jia Cong moved in.
Grapevine leaves, plantain branches and leaves, the patio rippling blue waves, Long Aotian far behind the tree to tie up horses, lifting stone locks, according to his own explanation, so conducive to exercising arm strength and protecting Jia Cong's safety.
The small servants of Jiafu have strict rules, and they can't enter the inner house casually without being summoned, and they must stay away when they see Miss Boudoir.
Now that Sanchun, Daiyu, and Baochai are coming here, of course they can't greet or go to see, Sun Fu tightened his sweat scarf, and spit out the melon seed shell with a mouthful: "Hey, big man, do you say that Master Cong can still win this time?" I've heard that the higher you go up the imperial examination, the more difficult it becomes......"
"Medium or not, have we changed?" Long Aotian sweated like rain, his momentum was compelling, and he smirked: "But you tell me which girl Master Cong will marry?" ”
"Phew! You stupid thing, the prime minister's family has seven officials, one person has attained the Tao, and the chicken and dog have ascended to heaven, have you heard? Master Cong has won the high-ranking officials, you and I will naturally be beneficial......" Sun Fu rolled his eyes: "As for the future grandmother, isn't Master Cong still young, I think Miss Bao is the most suitable, she will do things, and she will not treat us harshly......"
"No, no, no......" Long Aotian put down the stone lock, squatted on the ground, exhaled like thunder, and whispered: "The young lady of the Qin family is good, that is what everyone loves, sinking fish and geese, and closing the moon and embarrassing flowers." Cong Ye has talked a few times, this time I came back, I went to visit the Qin Mansion, I didn't see it, Cong Ye was a little dull, you didn't look carefully......"
I couldn't see that this rough man still had a careful side, Sun Fu thought about it and sighed: "Miss Qin is good, it's just ...... Alas...... Do not say! Do not say! ”
"And governing people is not foreign affairs, and the first question is why he knows how to know. If the husband does not wait for me to govern and govern himself, then he will not be able to govern people. However, it is difficult to generalize......"
"There is a lawsuit for the husband, and it exists in He Fang......"
"And what is the world, there are many people who can defend the lawsuit, and Gai Yidi knows how to litigate."
"And what is the world's saying that there are few people who can handle lawsuits, and they don't know how to handle lawsuits."
“……”
At the request of the second sister Jia Yingchun, Jia Cong wrote down the article on the college examination silently, and the sisters read it in the study.
The papers of each exam have to be returned, and now that the examination review has not ended, the original manuscript will naturally not be seen.
Jia Tanchun read and read, threw it on the case, and scolded with a smile: "No wonder the second brother hates Bagu!" This time I understand, the eight-strand article is not only awkward to death! And it's all a lot of nonsense! ”
Jia Cong was speechless: Although Baguwen is nonsense, this kind of nonsense is what many people dream of! How many people have studied all their lives and are not qualified!
Jia Yingchun clamped his two jade fingers and said softly: "Nonsense aside, the level of penmanship and organization is no less than the articles of some ancients. It is because there are strict restrictions on the art of making, and it cannot be desecrated with some Fengyue pen and ink, so the famous eight shares are difficult to write, which is constrained everywhere and lame everywhere. ”
"It's still the second sister who knows me." Jia Cong smiled, this is my sister.
Lin Daiyu tasted a cup of tea offered by Qingwen, the tea was not as good as the old lady gave her, Daiyu listened quietly, pursed her lips and smiled: "There is nothing so-called good or bad about Bagu, it is like a house, it must be divided into several rooms, a garden, and it must be carefully carved." Even when we compose poems, we should not limit them, whether they are flat, virtual and real, and rhyme? How is this different from the eight strands? ”
"The second girl said steadily, and Feng'er said it clearly." The article was passed to Baochai, and Xue Baochai groaned: "In my opinion, this kind of old and serious text is written by everyone, and the name of Brother Cong's prodigy, there is no vanity under the fame. If the examiner is old-fashioned, it will be unreasonable not to take it. It's just that I don't know what other people are doing, and we don't know what Brother Cong's rank is. ”
Baochai boasted, Jia Cong was very satisfied, and said: "The science field is not as serious as you think, I heard a certain person in the same year say that the topic of their local exam is 'Xizi Lai', and it made a joke." ”
"What joke? Tell me about it! Jia Xichun and Jia Tanchun suddenly became interested.
Jia Yingchun, Lin Daiyu, and Xue Baochai also looked at them expectantly.
These boudoir ladies are also stuffy.
Jia Cong deliberately took a sip of tea unhurriedly before he said: "A candidate has solved the problem: open the east gate, but the west will not come." Open the north gate, Xizi will not come. Open the south gate, but Xizi will not come. Open the West Gate, Xizi is coming! Xizi is here! ”
"Poof!"
"Ouch!"
Jia Cong's study in the Bandit Hall suddenly burst into laughter, and even Qingwen, who was standing on the side, understood, turned to the corner and smiled.
"This is really a child's play with fame!" Xue Baochai accused.
"There's something even more ridiculous." Jia Cong said: "There was an exam question that was 'is so tempting'? A candidate broke the question: In the poor mountains and empty valleys, there are 10,000 taels of gold, and there is a beautiful person outside the white and white sky. Said: Move and move ......"
Sanchun, Daiyu, and Baochai all blushed, and Lin Daiyu said: "This candidate is so light!" He deserves it! ”
Jia Cong said in her heart: "Sister Lin is really sullen, these women are all sullen...... It's hard to say! ”
"Later, he was beheaded for writing articles." Jia Cong said.
"Huh?!" The women's eyes suddenly widened, and they covered their mouths and exclaimed!
"It's nothing, aren't Wang Yangming, Li Zhen, Huang Zongxi, etc. in the Ming Dynasty all regarded as heresy?" Jia Cong sighed: "When this candidate was beheaded, he wrote two words, rolled them into two balls of paper, and stuffed them into his ears, with the word 'good' in his left ear and the word 'pain' in his right ear. ”
"Poof!" The women laughed again, and Jia Tanchun said: "This person is a good man!" ”
Jia Tanchun is a daughter's body and a man's heart, Jia Cong looked at the smiles of several little beauties in the room, and thought.
At the same time as they were laughing, Jia Zheng had just gotten off work from the Ministry of Industry, came back in a sedan chair, and just got off the sedan chair at the door, and flicked the white pheasant from the five grades, and saw Wang Shanbao leading a few small servants to return from Wanping, Jia Zheng turned around and asked, "Is there any news?" Did you pass the test? ”
"Yes." Wang Shanbao panted.
Jia Zheng was complicated and excited: "How many did you win?" ”
