Zhou packed up her things and prepared to go back to Ninghua, but she had a request, she had to see Shen Xi invite Mr. back before leaving, and the requirement must be Mr. who had been lifted. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

If you are looking for a gentleman, you must naturally look for someone who has the ability!

My eldest son has won the champion, I plan to let my younger son also win the champion, even if he does not win the champion, at least he will be in a jinshi, since the people who have been admitted to the jinshi have gone to become officials, then it is not too much for me to find someone to come back as a gentleman to teach the younger son, right?

This is simply adding to Shen Xi's blockage.

In these years, I have basically never heard of Zhongju people still teaching.

Winning the lifting means entering the scholar class, as long as it is not excessive profligacy, and the family eats and drinks basically without worry, who will come out to be a gentleman?

Even if you want to educate people, you can also be a teacher of the county school, that is an official with rank and rank who leads the imperial court, and the county must be polite when you see it.

When Shen Xi told Zhou about this difficulty, Zhou didn't understand it at all, so she recognized the reason for death...... My youngest son must be raised to come back to teach, and if I can't find someone to be a gentleman, I won't leave.

Shen Xi said helplessly: "Mother, how do you think I will teach my little brother?" Children are champions, it's better than being educated, right? ”

Zhou looked at Shen Xi, and finally shook his head again and again: "No, no, no, you are an official, just teach your younger brother the truth of being a man...... Even if you have the leisure, can you devote all your energy to teaching your younger brother? ”

Shen Xi asked himself if he was a gentleman, but now the affairs of the court are more urgent, or it will not be long before he will lead the troops to go to battle, and he really can't teach his younger brother like supervising Zhu Houzhao.

There is really no way, Shen Xi can only post a notice, hoping that the old man will open his eyes and teach his younger brother, so that the old lady can leave Guangzhou Mansion as soon as possible.

The results speak for themselves, and no one has come to apply.

Shen Xi pondered carefully, and it seemed that except for Tang Yin, who met the conditions, there was no one else.

Tang Bohu was promoted by Tianfu in the eleventh year of Hongzhi, or Xie Yuan, and even in the second year, he had already been admitted to the Jinshi but was brushed down because of the imperial examination fraud case, and he was poor and ashamed to be a small official, and he used it to teach Shen Yun to read, which is simply suitable.

If Tang Yin was given a choice, whether to be responsible for opening up a salt farm in a place like Qiongzhou Mansion, which was full of poisonous snakes and beasts, or to return to Guangzhou Mansion to teach the young master of the Shen family, Tang Yin would immediately make a wise choice.

But Shen Xi finally found a trustworthy person to take the lead, and at this time, people estimated that they had arrived in Qiongzhou Mansion, and then called people back, he himself felt that it was too much of a toss.

Shen Xi had no choice, so he could only discuss with the Zhou family again: "Mother, what do you think of this...... The child invited the two Xiucai to come back to teach the younger brother, what do you say? ”

You don't have to worry about one showman, two are always fine, right? Quality can't win, then rely on quantity.

Zhou still shook his head: "It's not that my mother can't believe in Xiucai, you look at your uncle, he is also Xiucai, he himself is not promising, can the disciples he taught be good?" Otherwise, Han Wa'er, you go and invite Mr. Feng, the most grateful person in my mother's life is Mr. Feng, he has already taught you this champion, and then teach your younger brother, maybe there will be another champion in the family? ”

After Feng Huaqi won the first place in Shen Xizhong, the number of school children increased dramatically, as a responsible principal, how could he give up a forest for the sake of Shen Yun's tree?

But in order to send the old lady away, Shen Xi immediately agreed: "When the mother goes back, the child will write a letter to Mr. Feng and ask him to come to Guangzhou Mansion." ”

……

……

On the eighth day of February, Shen Xi finally sent Zhou away.

Without Zhou's buzzing in his ears, Shen Xi suddenly felt that the world was so beautiful, and if he wanted to bring an old lady with him as an official in the future, it would be too torturous.

Shen Xi never thought about inviting Mr. Feng back, he would never use his power to oppress people, let Feng Yanqi go against the original intention of educating talents, and simply have nothing to do, teach Shen Yun and Shen Yi'er for a few days first, and use his talent to be the enlightenment teacher of his younger siblings.

Let the youngest champion of the Ming Dynasty, the dignified Zhengsanpin Fengjiang official, teach the two children to read and write, Shen Yun and Shen Yi'er are simply the treatment of the prince of the East Palace.

Although Shen Yun looks stupid, he is better than being solid and steady, learning things slowly, but he basically won't forget it after learning it, and he can memorize it after a few days, which makes Shen Xi very pleased, his younger brother looks clumsy, but he has a lot of talent for reading, as long as he lays a good foundation and teaches Baguwen writing skills, he may be able to find a way out of the imperial examination.

As for Shen Yi'er, she is simply a ghost, what she teaches, she will remember it once, and she will not forget it after a long time, and she can learn and apply it.

Shen Yier's biggest goal is to be a "female champion", she is not only smart and clever, but also cute, not to mention how handsome she is, jumping up and down every day like a little monkey, the biggest happiness is to bully her younger brother, and later learned to play cards, shouting all day long to play cards with her sister-in-law and two sisters, because she has a good brain, she will count the cards in other people's hands, the result is to lose less and win more, and she has the qualifications to be a gambling saint at a young age.

Shen Xi saw that the situation was out of line, so he still had to ask Mr. to come back to teach, because there was no beating and scolding in his teaching philosophy, and Shen Yi'er was stubborn by nature, and without a strong old lady like Zhou's side, it was simply lawless, and even Shen Xi and Xie Yun'er, the eldest brother and sister-in-law, couldn't control her.

Shen Xi asked people to find a few gentlemen, both young and old, and they were all from Xiucai and had certain teaching experience.

After the simple school examination, Shen Xi himself couldn't decide who to choose, Xie Yun'er said: "Xianggong, please ask a gentleman to come back, there is a lot of inconvenience at home." ”

Shen Xi was stunned, and after a little thought, he thought about what Xie Yun'er meant.

Generally speaking, when a large family invites a husband to go back, they all teach their children, and they have never taught a woman to read, mainly because of a "man and woman who do not kiss each other".

In these days, even if the husband touches the little girl's finger, it is very rude, and it may be out of order to make a big fuss. Hai Rui, a generation of Qing officials, forced his daughter to death because his five-year-old daughter ate a piece of cake from a servant, because in the era of "great defense between men and women", any contact between men and women is not allowed.

Ask a gentleman to come back, the yard is not big, and it is also a problem for the lady of the house to look up and look down.

Shen Xi is often not at home, and the gentleman who invited him back will disturb the ladies in his backyard, even if he thinks it is okay, the world will gossip about it.

"What do you think, ma'am?"

Shen Xi looked at Xie Yun'er, "Why don't you let your husband continue to teach her younger siblings to read?" ”

Xie Yun'er said: "Send the tenth brother to the school, maybe you can worry less." On Yi'er's side, there will be concubines to teach. ”

It's not that Shen Xi didn't think about transporting Shen to a private school, but he was a dignified superintendent, and sending his younger brother to the school would definitely be criticized for being mean. You have more than 100 taels a year, and you are reluctant to spend a few taels of silver to invite a gentleman to come back to teach?

Shen Xi was really helpless, and said, "Let's discuss this matter later." ”

……

……

Shen Xi couldn't find a suitable candidate to come back to teach his younger brothers and sisters for the time being, and he had business to do, so he put the matter aside for the time being.

Shen Xi planned to transport Shen to a gentleman's house to study before he set out on the expedition, go every morning and come back in the afternoon, and Zhu Qi would be responsible for the pick-up.

On this day, Shen Xi went to Hui Niang's place to spend the night, and inadvertently told Hui Niang about it, Hui Niang sat up and said: "Master, the concubine has heard that there is a strange woman in Guangzhou Mansion, who is no less talented than Hongru, and is known as the female Zhuge . Why didn't the master invite this person to teach the tenth young master and the young lady? ”

"Female Zhuge ?"

Shen Xi frowned, what is this called?

In terms of learning talent, women are not worse than men, especially "liberal arts", as long as they teach with their hearts, they will never lose to any man when they write poems and articles, but there are always too few literate women in this era, and women cannot participate in the imperial examinations, and they cannot accept the experience of the cruel imperial examinations.

In the era of preaching that "a woman is virtuous if she is not talented", a woman being talented can be said to be a taboo in choosing a husband, and saying that her daughter is "talented" is similar to revealing her shortcomings.

Hui Niang explained, Shen Xi only then knew that the woman was from Panyu County, lived in the city of Guangzhou, was about 20 years old, and was said to have promised her husband's family, but the family was poor, and her husband was weak and incompetent, so she taught the female student to help the family. The gentry in the city invited her to the mansion to teach their daughters "The Analects of Women", "The Female Rules", "The Biography of the Daughters", etc., and she was also a little famous in the city, but Shen Xi was busy with affairs, how did he know that there was such a person in the city?

Hearing the origin of "Female Zhuge ", Shen Xi couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, he was asking someone to go back and teach his younger brother and sister at the same time, if it was simply the content of female learning, Xie Yun'er and Xie Hengnu were completely competent, why invite a married woman to give a lecture at home?

If the old lady knew that he invited a female gentleman to go back to teach Shen Yun, she would have to slap him to death.

The old lady asked you to ask your husband to come back to teach her brother, it's better for you to invite a female streamer to come back, but do you want to tell me whether this woman is a showman or a lifter?

Hui Niang didn't know what to do, and asked, "Master, do you want the concubine to help ask?" ”

Shen Xi shook his head: "Forget it, the tenth brother's side, I will teach it for the time being, and I will send him to Mr.'s house to study in March, and the little sister will not learn it for the time being." ”

Hui Niang's expression was gloomy, probably because she felt that her suggestion was not adopted by Shen Xi, but made Shen Xi embarrassed.

Shen Xi didn't know why Hui Niang admired this "female Zhuge so much", but she thought that she was sympathetic to the same disease, knowing that the female Zhuge had married a useless husband, and she felt worthless for this woman.

The next day, Shen Xi returned to the Governor's Yamen, and Ma Jiu came to Shen Xi with a letter of self-recommendation and said, "Master, someone sent it to the Yamen yesterday, saying that he wanted to apply for the teaching of the second master and the young lady, but I don't know who sent it. ”

"Huh?"

Shen Xi took the self-recommendation letter, and the first thing that caught his eye was Juanxiu's small character "Zhongcheng Lord personally opened".

Shen Xi was thinking in his heart at the time, could it really be the self-recommendation letter handed over by the "female Zhuge ".

When I opened it, it was indeed a cover letter, a splendid article well done.

The full text is about three or four hundred words, and the style used is not the traditional Chinese style used by women, but the eight-strand text. It is said that women can also be accomplished in talent and learning, because there is no sage's words to corroborate, Shen Xi felt a little ridiculous when he saw it, but he had to admire this article for being comprehensive and brilliant.
