Chapter 217: Xiangling Appears
After a few polite words with Aunt Xue again, Jia Qing turned around and looked at Daiyu Tanchun and the others, his eyes burning.
How smart Daiyu is, seeing it, immediately reacted to what Jia Qing meant, Daiyu frowned, and glared at Jia Qing angrily.
Tanchun also had a similar expression, Yingchun smiled, Xichun didn't think so much, and when she saw Jia Qing looking at her, she immediately replied with a cute smile.
Above, Jia Mu saw Jia Qing's appearance and asked, "Look at your appearance, don't you still want to ask your sisters for a bride price?" ”
Jia Qing said blankly: "Huh? Oh, yes! ”
Jia Mu then laughed and scolded: "Where did they get the bride price for you!" ”
Jia Qing didn't mind and said: "That's okay, when they get together, they will give it to me in private!" I'm not in a hurry. ”
"Phew."
Hearing Jia Qing's words, Daiyu whispered. It's just that in front of the elders, it's not good to criticize Jia Qing, so I have to keep it in mind.
The sisters are not good at theorizing, and Jia Mu and the others also laughed at themselves, but someone gave them a head.
"Hey, I said second brother. Now that you are a man, you don't say what to reward us, but also ask us flat-headed people to ask for a bride price, what is the reason? ”
Jia Qing was shocked and asked, "Looking at the second sister-in-law's appearance, are you ready to repay the debt?" ”
Wang Xifeng looked at him, and scolded with a smile: "I think the second brother is becoming more and more insatiable, you see that the ancestors love you, and they will give you whatever is good, I haven't said that the ancestors are biased, you have my idea!" ”
Indeed, the middle brothers, elders, and teachers in the imperial examination gave each other gifts with good meanings out of high hopes, which made sense, but there was no saying that they were given by their peers. Although the first in the imperial examination is one of the four joyful events in life, it is not a marriage after all.
Just joking, Jia Qing accepted the gift, and left directly, so he said to Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue: "Today, the old ancestor is so complete here, why don't you see Second Brother Bao and Sister Bao?" ”
Mrs. Wang said, "Your second brother Bao hasn't come back from school."
That's right, Brother Qing. You are now in high school, and you think you have a lot of experience in reading, do you think you can let your second brother Bao also learn from you?
You also know that your second uncle pressed him very hard, if he could be like you, and he could also achieve a fame, I think your second uncle would not have persecuted him as much as he does now.
In this way, wouldn't it also be possible to complete a part of your brotherhood? ”
Mrs. Wang is really angry. Although he used to verbally admit that his son was not as good as Jia Qing in reading, he still thought that his Baoyu was no less intelligent than anyone else, but he was not sensible yet......
So she, like Jia Mu, was unwilling to force him too early.
But now that Jia Qing rode away and swayed ahead, she had to be nervous. Perhaps, Baoyu is not small!
If Baoyu can be like Jia Qing, and can also win the middle, the relationship between Baoyu and Jia Zheng's father and son will be very different.
It must be known that Jia Zheng also wanted to enter the imperial examination when he was young, but after failing to pass the township examination twice, Xianrong Guogong did not let him continue to take the examination, but directly asked for a fold, and the emperor at that time, the current emperor Taishang immediately allowed Jia Zheng to enter the ministry to study and receive the title of lord.
In other words, although Jia Zheng loves to study and study, he does not have a reputation above others, which is a pity for him! If Baoyu can surpass him at this point, then he will definitely not criticize Baoyu in reading again!
This is what she thinks.
In this regard, Jia Qing said that there was nothing he could do.
Jia Baoyu can't lift people.
This is not because he is not well educated, nor is it because he is not wise enough. Instead, he looked down on the "eight-share industry" from the bottom of his heart, and looked down on the beetles in the court.
A life is only born for the wind and the moon.
With such a high-spirited, fresh and refined demeanor, Jia Qing didn't think he could change it!
"As long as Second Brother Bao has this intention, let alone learn from me, I can even ask my master to bring Second Brother Bao with me when I enter the mansion to listen to the teachings. My master likes to teach his children the most, and he will not refuse, so in less than a year and a half, with the talent of the second brother Bao, he will definitely be able to surpass me.
But there is a premise for this, Mrs., you can completely convince my second brother Bao and let him devote himself to studying. Otherwise, not only will the second brother Bao not be able to learn the scriptures and righteousness with me, but with my master's temperament, I am afraid that I will be punished by the second brother Bao, and when the time comes, don't say that I feel guilty, even my wife will be distressed, right? ”
Jia Qing said this, with Fang Shou's temperament, he would never mind having an observer disciple when teaching Jia Qing. However, Jia Qing was sure that Jia Baoyu would definitely not go, and people like Fang Shou were definitely the most feared things in his life, and there was no one.
But if Mrs. Wang really has the means to subdue Jia Baoyu, it will not be difficult. For the sake of the past, Jia Qing didn't mind giving him a hand.
After all, Jia Baoyu is really a good person through and through. In these years, there are not many men with a good heart like him.
But not to mention, when Mrs. Wang and Jia Mu heard that Jia Qing was willing to introduce Jia Baoyu to Fang Punctuality, their eyes lit up at the same time, and they were quite moved.
It's just that, when I think about it again, I feel that this matter is difficult to do. They themselves know Jia Baoyu's temperament, not to mention, they almost don't want Jia Baoyu to leave their sight for a moment.
It's just that if I think about it, if I can have a world-famous Confucian like Fang Shou, it will definitely be better than Jia Dairu in the family school, I don't know how many times.
For the sake of Jia Baoyu's future, they also have to consider this.
Therefore, it is a little difficult to choose for a while.
At this time, almost everyone in the room was waiting for Mrs. Jia Muwang's decision.
Yingchun, Daiyu and others thought to themselves, if Jia Baoyu was as specialized in learning as Jia Qing in the future, I don't know what kind of situation it would be.
Aunt Xue also looked at it with a smile, but he just looked at Jia Qing, who was smiling and calm, and praised in his heart: This child is really worthy of the family's love for him, he is not arrogant or impatient, and he is willing to bring his brother. Jiafu can produce such a descendant, it is really a blessing for the ancestors!
After a long time, Mother Jia made a decision and said decisively: "Since Brother Qing'er has such good intentions, my wife and I will accept your affection." When I go back, I will persuade Baoyu to go to school with you!" ”
As soon as Mother Jia made a decision, Mrs. Wang hesitated, and agreed, and still said a few good words.
The atmosphere in the hall is getting better and better.
Jia Baoyu didn't know that his future was decided in this Imperial Hall, otherwise, he would definitely not go to Xue Pan to drink today......
Jia Qing didn't expect Jia's mother to agree. In his mind, didn't Jia Mu always disagree with Jia Zheng forcing Jia Baoyu to study? Otherwise, in the original book, Jia Baoyu would not have gone further and further under the name of "the world's incompetent first".
How did Jia Qing know that Jia's mother felt that Jia Zheng's reading was a bit roundabout, and she didn't think that he could teach Jia Baoyu well. She likes people who are clever and spiritual, and she doesn't want Jia Baoyu to become a person like Jia Zheng.
But Fang Shou is different, no matter how conceited Jia Mu is, she will not think that this cabinet minister who can control the government of a country is a useless person, right? Today, in the end, it is still a society that "learns literature and martial arts and sells them to the emperor's family".
Being a slaughterer for an official is a person's highest pursuit, and now that she has this opportunity, she is not a short-sighted person, so she naturally knows how to choose.
Jia Baoyu's matter was decided, and Jia Qingfu asked, "Why don't you see Sister Bao?" ”
Aunt Xue smiled: "She hasn't been feeling good lately, so I left her in the house to recuperate, so I didn't come." ”
"Damn, damn it, I didn't know that Sister Bao was sick, and I didn't go to take a look, and today I still have the face to receive a big gift from my aunt, my face, it's like there's no place to put it......"
Jia Qing said half-truthfully.
Jia Mu smiled above: "In that case, why don't you go and take a look now?" My aunt loves you so much, and all the good things that your own son can't give you are willing to give, don't you want to express it well? ”
Jia Qing immediately agreed: "Then the old ancestor, the grandson went?" ”
The sisters have been sitting for a long time, and they want to ask Jia Qing if they have accumulated a stomach, but when they see that he is leaving, they all can't sit still.
Jia Mu said: "Go, go."
Go too, knowing that you sisters and brothers have a good relationship, and you will definitely want to talk about it now.
Let's go, let's see your sister Bao. ”
The sisters rejoiced and got up one after another to thank Jia's mother.
Aunt Xue said, "In this way, I will also go back, so that I can take care of their brothers and sisters." ”
Mother Jia said: "No need, Mrs. Aunt doesn't need to bother, Brother Qing is also sensible now, and he knows how to take care of his sisters."
My aunt will stay, let's talk together, and we will play cards later. ”
In this way, Aunt Xue said, "Then follow the old lady's words." ”
After speaking, he said to the maid who had been standing behind her and came over with the four treasures of the study before:
"Xiangling, take the young masters and young ladies over, but be careful."
Xiangling replied, "Yes, madam." ”
