Chapter 286 Going to school

Seeing Zhu Hongsan's murderous four words, Tong Yangjia relieved himself, it seems that the king of Chu still forgives himself. Tong Yangjia hurriedly took out two thousand taels of silver tickets from his arms and handed them to Cao Fang. "Please Gonggong Cao must say a few words for his brother in front of the prison country!"

Cao Fang was very happy to see the two thousand taels of silver in his hand, his previous family property was confiscated by Zhu Hongsan, and now he was happy to have silver in his account.

"Lord Tong, the prison country is also very dissatisfied with the Ma family!"

"Oh? I want to hear about it! ”

"Jian Guo heard that Ma Jiyuan's second son went to Guangdong to study politics and yamen, and said that the cow, ghost, snake and god are going to jump out!"

Tong Yangjia was ecstatic when he heard Zhu Hongsan say this, it seems that the King of Chu's patience with the Ma family has reached the limit, this time Ma Mingyuan let his nephew enter the school politics, and it was clear that he wanted to reach out to the township, and the King of Chu said that because he was very dissatisfied with Ma Mingyuan in his heart.

Tong Yangjia felt the value of his two thousand taels of silver, and hurriedly said: "If there is any situation in the future, please inform my brother, brother, thank you first!" After speaking, he took out two thousand taels of silver tickets from his arms and handed them to Cao Fang.

Cao Fang took it with a smile and arched her hand back to restore her life.

Tong Yangjia stood at the door and looked at Cao Fang who was far away, thinking in his heart that it seemed that the time to bring down the Ma family was not far away.

Today is February 15th, and the weather is slowly starting to warm up, so farmers outside the city can start preparing for planting. In the temporary palace of the king of Chu in the north of Guangzhou, it was busy, and today was the day when the prince of Chu went out to study.

Zhu Hongsan decided a few years ago that the right son would go to the private school outside the house to study, and his identity could not be exposed. Ma Xiaofang also didn't want her son Zhu Hai to go out of the house to study with those ordinary people, but there was no way, how dare she oppose Zhu Hongsan's order, she had to send it out to see it first, and then have the opportunity to talk to her brother. It's okay for the other children to go out, and his son Zhu Hai is the eldest son, and he will inherit Zhu Hong's three family businesses in the future, so he can study with those businessmen and mud legs.

The private school was found by Zhu Zhong, the housekeeper in the house, in Sweet Water Lane in the south city, five miles away from the Chu Wang's Mansion in the north city. Zhu Zhong also has no choice, the king of Chu has an order, he is not allowed to find a private school of the family, but only the kind of school that he opened by himself. This northern city is full of official eunuchs, where is there such a school, only in the urban area where the common people in the southern city gather.

Yesterday, Zhu Zhong had already made a trip and sent a bundle, and the old gentleman also agreed, let him take the child to see it today.

Zhu Hongsan's sons are only three of the right age, the eldest son Zhu Hai, who is ten years old this year, the second son Zhu Jiang, who is eight years old this year, and the third son Zhu Huai, who is seven years old. This era is all imaginary, so the youngest Zhu Huai is only six years old.

Ma Xiaofang, who was standing in the courtyard, saw the three children change their clothes, and complained to Zhu Hongsan in her heart: "Go out to school, why do you have to wear linen clothes, aren't there many children in the city who wear silk!" ”

Ma Ruyan looked at his son Zhu Jiang, this child has grown so big and it is the first time he has left his eyes, he doesn't know what to do, he can't help but shed tears when he thinks about it. Zhu Jiang stepped forward and said, "Mother, don't cry, isn't it just to study!" I'll be back in the evening! ”

The more Zhu Jiang said this, the more sad Ma Ruyan became, and Ma Xiaofang on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and said: "Ruyan, okay, the child will come back at night!" ”

Ma Xiaofang said to the three children: "It is your father's intention for the three of you to go out to study this time, so don't be naughty outside with your own power, and let your father know that he will come back and beat your ass." And Zhu Hai, you are the boss, you have to take care of your younger brothers, you know? ”

The three children bowed down and said, "Yes, mother! "Zhu Jiang was born to Ma Ruyan, Zhu Huai was born to Dong Zhen, they called their biological mother their mother, and they wanted to call Ma Xiaofang their mother.

After Ma Xiaofang finished speaking, she said to Zhu Bao, who was going with her: "Zhu Bao, take care of the three princes, do you know?" ”

"Please rest assured, princess!" Zhu Bao is the guard that Zhu Hongsan sent to their children, and in addition to Zhu Bao, there is also a little eunuch Chunxi to follow.

Ma Xiaofang was also reluctant in her heart, Zhu Hai was so old and it was the first time she went out by herself, I don't know if I can do it.

Seeing the three children go out and get into the carriage, Ma Xiaofang took Ma Ruyan and Dong Zhen back.

Sanxiao, who was sitting in the carriage, was very happy, after all, this was the first time he went out by himself, and he saw that everything was new on the side of the street.

Zhu Hai is still a child in essence, educated by Ma Mingyuan at home, and looks like a humble gentleman, this time he left the house without anyone to care, so he naturally laughed loudly with his two brothers.

It's morning, there are a lot of people on the road, plus entering the south city, outside the city is the Guangzhou Development Zone, people come and go is very prosperous. It was the first time for Sanxiao to see so many people, and he was very curious.

Zhu Jiang pointed to a red-haired and blue-eyed foreigner in front of him and said, "Big brother, look at how he looks like a monster from Journey to the West!" ”

After all, Zhu Hai was older, and knew that this was a red-haired countryman, so he said to his younger brother: "This is a red-haired country from thousands of miles away, I heard my uncle say that they are maritime businessmen, and they came to my Daming to do business!" ”

Zhu Hongsan's family relationship is chaotic, Zhu Haihai's uncles are Ma Mingyuan and Ma Jiyuan, but Zhu Jiang wants to call his grandfather when he sees these two. Therefore, the relationship within the Zhu family is all about themselves.

Zhu Jiang naturally knew who Zhu Hai's uncle was, and hurriedly asked, "Big brother, didn't the second grandfather say what the red-haired country is like?" ”

"The second uncle doesn't know!"

Zhu Jiang nodded and said, "I must go overseas in the future to see if it is the same as what is said in the Classic of Mountains and Seas!" ”

Zhu Huai was still a child, and he hadn't read the Classic of Mountains and Seas at all, so he asked on the side: "Second brother, what is the Classic of Mountains and Seas?" ”

"It's a book about the mountains and the sea!"

"Don't lie to the third child, let the second mother know to spank you!" Zhu Hai turned back to Zhu Huai and said, "Don't listen to your second brother's nonsense, the Book of Mountains and Seas is an ancient book of the pre-Qin Dynasty, and you can naturally read it when you are older!" ”

Zhu Huai nodded in understanding.

The three children took the carriage and soon came to the gate of the Nancheng School.

Zhu Hai looked up at the school, in an alley, there was a small courtyard, and the sound of reading came from it, it seemed that it was here.

Zhu Zhong went in to see Mr., and outside the door, Zhu Bao carried the three children out of the carriage.

Sanxiao entered the courtyard, which was a three-room tiled house, and the windows were open, so that you could see the situation inside. There was a thin old man sitting in the hall, and there were a dozen long tables and stools lined up below, and on top sat more than forty urchins, all of whom were of all ages, the oldest of whom was fifteen or sixteen years old.

Zhu Zhong saw Sanxiao coming in, and hurriedly said, "Three sons, please come in, Mr. wants to see you!" ”

Approaching the three little ones to the house, he said to Mr. Qi: "Mr. Qi, these are the three sons of my lord, please Mr. Assessment!" ”

The white-bearded old man nodded and looked at the three children standing in front of him.

Zhu Hai looks completely like Ma Xiaofang, only ten years old but one meter four tall, with a slender body and a face like a crown of jade. And Zhu Jiang is black and fat, with a smile on his face. Zhu Huai argued with a double argument, still dressed as a child.

Mr. Naqi nodded and asked, "What have the three of you studied?" What a book you've read! ”

Zhu Hai replied: "Mr. Hui, I have learned the surnames of 100 families and the 1000-character script with my uncle at home, and now I am studying the Analects. ”

The little fat man Zhu Jiang smiled: "Sir, I have also studied, and I have also watched Journey to the West!" ”

The old man was stunned, has he read Journey to the West? This is not something that such a young child can understand.

"Have you seen Journey to the West?"

"That's right, I've seen Sun Wukong fight the white bone spirit three times, and it was played by my family's drama team!" As soon as the little fat man Zhu Jiang finished speaking, all the children in the room laughed, it turned out that he was watching a play!

"Humph! Play for the gallery! Mr. Qi asked the last Zhu Huai, "Boy, what about you!" ”

Zhu Huai replied respectfully: "Sir, I haven't learned yet!" ”

Mr. Qi nodded and said to Zhu Zhong: "This housekeeper, please go back and report to Master Zhu, I will accept the three sons." Zhu Zhong nodded and went back to his life. Zhu Bao led the carriage and waited outside the door.

Mr. Qi assigned Zhu Hai to the large class, here are some students with foundation, Zhu Jiang and Zhu Huai are assigned to the small class, these are just entering the school, and there is no foundation at all.

Mr. Qi arranged for the kindergarten students to review yesterday's content first. First come to the small class and teach the children to recite the three-character scripture.

"Let's open the text, and read it to me, at the beginning of man, nature is good...

Mr. read one sentence and said some sentences, and after reading ten sentences, let everyone recite them, and then traced the red according to the textbook. Then I went back to the senior class and assessed the homework left last night.

The morning passed quickly, and near noon, my husband left school, and the class resumed in the afternoon, and noon was the time for rest.

Hearing that school is over, the children disperse in a hurry, and some of them go home for dinner when they are close to home, and they have no choice but to bring food if they are far away.

The three children of the Zhu family naturally want to bring food, their family is far away in Beicheng, and everything they will eat when they go back is finished. Chunxi, who was outside the door, saw the children getting out of school, so he hurriedly brought in the lunch box and prepared food for the three masters.

The lunch box has just been delivered by a special person from the Chu Palace, and it is still warm, and after opening it, the room is full of fragrance.

Zhu Hai looked at his own, the tomato scrambled eggs made at noon, and a chicken thigh, all of which he loved to eat. After reciting a book all morning, he was also hungry, so he didn't speak and lowered his head to move.

The three of them had a good meal, but some people were not satisfied. Not all of them went home to eat, and more than a dozen children brought food to the class. However, this is Nancheng District, where ordinary small businessmen and ordinary people are the majority, so naturally they can't bring any good things to their children. If you don't have any money, bring two steamed buns and a piece of pickles. Those with better family backgrounds can bring a stir-fry, but it is already cold in the morning. At this time, seeing that Zhu Hai and the three of them were meat and vegetables, they could not be angry.

One of these children, a fat man of twelve or thirteen, stood up and asked one of the children next to him, "Second child, do you want to eat chicken legs?" ”

"Think, big brother, do you have chicken legs?"

"Wait!"

After this guy finished speaking, he came to Zhu Jiang, he looked at Zhu Hai, who was as tall as himself, and didn't dare to make a move, so he could only find Zhu Jiang, who was shorter than himself.

The guy slapped the table and said, "Little guy, give me your chicken legs, the master wants to eat it!" After speaking, Zhu Jiang, who was stunned, snatched the chicken leg and left.

Zhu Jiang is pampered, I have seen this there, I used to be at home Ma Ruyan was afraid of melting in his mouth, and he was afraid of falling on his head, and this time the chicken leg was robbed and immediately cried.
