Chapter 98: The Great Evil
"The homework is good, and Mr. Ge is also good." Bai Qiao sat next to the old lady and smiled.
"That's good, the girl's family also has to read and know etiquette, and if you get married in the future, you can gain a firm foothold in your husband's family." The old lady held Bai Qiao's hand.
Zhao's heart was very sour, but he couldn't show it, so he had to laugh and say: "Mother, let's eat first, I'm afraid it will be uncomfortable to eat when it's cold for a while." ”
"Well, I'm happy to see the children."
Zhao said in his heart: This is the joy of seeing the children, this is the joy of seeing Sister Qiao. The old lady has not let go of any child she has seen in the past few days. The way Sister Qiao looks at her is different from others. This Sister Qiao is also used to pretending in front of the old lady. Sister Jin came back and said that since she moved to Mr. Ge's school, Sister Qiao was mostly sleeping and rarely attended classes. I guess I was afraid of being reprimanded by the old lady, so I rushed to slap my swollen face and pretend to be fat, right?
"Your body is the most important thing. When the brothers and sisters got out of school, they all called over, and their mother tested their knowledge in the past two days, so that they would not be lazy. ”
The old lady nodded: "Yes, this is true." ”
After asking Ann, Bai Qiao went to school. Because there were too many people, Mr. Ge's school was deliberately replaced with a larger hall. The hall is transparent from north to south, the windows are all open, the bamboo curtains are all rolled up, and the wind blows, and the whole room is refreshing. Nine desks are neatly arranged in the hall. There are books, paper and pens on the table. When Bai Qiao arrived, Sister Yu and Sister Xuan had already arrived, they were concubines, and it was rare to be able to come to study, so they cherished it extraordinarily, because they were a little afraid of seeing people, so they saw Bai Qiao say hello and sat back in their place.
Bai Qiao sat on the right side of the second row, with Brother Zhi'er behind him. Every time I understand my brother's endorsement, it is the loudest in the school, and with my brother's voice, even if Bai Qiao also endorses it, it will be drowned, so I simply don't memorize it, anyway, Mr. Ge can't ask her.
Bai Jin came late, with Butterfly Swallow by his side, Butterfly Swallow was carrying a food box in his hand, and there were two plates of dim sum in the food box.
In the whole school, the buddies will not bring snacks, and the sisters will not bring Bai Qiao, which will affect sleep; Sister Yu and Sister Xuan are careful, for fear of being pulled by the second lady and not daring to bring their pigtails; Then there is Sister Ru, although Sister Ru is only nine years old, she is quite serious about studying and will not bring these, so only Bai Jin brings food in the whole school.
Bai Jin didn't think there was anything. Mr. Ge didn't say that he couldn't bring desserts, so why couldn't she bring them?
Still reviewing yesterday's homework first, Mr. Ge randomly ordered a few people to endorse it, and continued to teach new lessons after all of them passed. This is much more difficult than the female Fan Jielu, Bai Jin holds the pen in one hand, and his little face is wrinkled together. No wonder my brother is so busy every day that he can't see anyone, it's really difficult!
Mr. Ge's eyes flicked back and forth over Bai Qiao many times. It wasn't until the end of the lecture that Bai Qiao woke up, packed his things and prepared to leave.
Outside the school, Mama Rong smiled and saluted the brothers and sisters: "The old lady beckons the young ladies and sons to go to dinner, and the young ladies and sons come with the old slaves." ”
"Grandmother wants us to eat." Sister Ru smiled and talked to Sister Yu and Sister Xuan.
Sister Yu nodded: "Then let's go quickly." ”
The group followed Yourong to the old lady. In addition to the elder sisters, the eldest lady, the second lady, and the third lady were also there, and a large table was placed.
The old lady was very happy and told the mother-in-law to set up the dishes. Zhao Shi was also busy with his work, beckoning everyone to sit down.
"What are they doing standing one by one? Don't sit down yet. The third lady smiled.
Ordinary juniors can't share a table with their elders, so they are all standing aside and not taking a seat at the moment.
"That's what your grandmother meant, sit down." The third lady pulled Bai Jin and asked Bai Jin to sit down.
Sit down, just sit down, she and her mother didn't have so many rules when her grandmother didn't come back.
As Bai Jin sat down, Bai Qiao also sat down, and then all the brothers and sisters sat down. Except for Brother Zhang and Brother Song, they can be regarded as all people.
"How many days have you been in school, how are you doing?" The old lady looked at everyone with a smile.
Brother Yan was stunned and said, "Grandmother Lao is worried, and she learns well." ”
Brother Yu also nodded, in fact, Mr. Ge taught very well. His article was even praised by the gentleman in the school.
The second lady interrupted with a smile: "The gentleman that my sister-in-law is looking for must be good." ”
Zhao smiled when he heard this, and politely shirked it: "This Mr. Ge is not for me, it is indeed a good one, Brother Ge'er's knowledge is learned from Mr. Ge, and the gentlemen in Jiangling Mansion have praised Brother Ge'er's articles as good." ”
"That's a good thing! To find such a gentleman, the sister-in-law must have made a lot of efforts. The second lady was in a very good mood when she heard this. The gentleman invited by the old family taught Brother Song and Brother Yan to read, and contributed money and efforts, but saved the money in her pocket, so as not to let the two brothers run out and be accused of not being angry.
"Brother, tell me, what did you learn?" The old lady beckoned to Brother Zhi'er.
Brother Zhi'er immediately got up and saluted, and said respectfully: "Back to grandmother, my grandson has been studying modestly recently. ”
The old lady sighed: "Then I know how to recite a paragraph to my grandmother." ”
"Yes." Brother Zhi nodded, and began to endorse in a serious manner: "Joy, anger, sorrow and happiness have not yet occurred, and they are in the middle; It is said to be the sum of the middle sections. Those who are in the middle are the great foundation of the world, and those who are harmonious are also the way of the world. To neutralize, heaven is in the ascendancy, and all things are nurtured. ”
The smile on the old lady's face grew, and she nodded with satisfaction: "It's so good to understand my brother's back, Sister Qiao, do you know the meaning of this sentence?" ”
When Bai Jin heard that Bai Qiao was called, his heart was relieved. This paragraph that understands my brother's memorization was just taught by Mr. Ge today, and she hasn't memorized it yet. Bai Qiao has been sleeping, surely he doesn't know!
Bai Qiao got up, bowed and stood still: "What this means is that when the emotions of joy, anger, sorrow and sorrow have not yet occurred, the heart is calm and unbiased, and it is called Zhong; If the occurrence of feelings can be in accordance with moderation, and there is no excesses and failures, it is called harmony. It is the foundation of everything in the world, and it is the common road of the world. If the principle of neutrality can be extended to reach the state of perfection, then all things in heaven and earth can be in their own place and born according to their own life. ”
As soon as these words came out, Brother Zhi'er took the lead in taking a closer look at Bai Qiao, and said with a smile: "What the eldest sister said is excellent. ”
"It can be seen that I learned well." The third lady smiled and served the old lady a bowl of soup.
The old lady nodded repeatedly.
"It's an excellent learner, this Mr. Ge is indeed a rare gentleman."
"Isn't it? I see that I understand my brother and I like this Mr. Ge very much. ”
Zhao's face was a little unsightly. Sister Qiao'er's girl really learned so well! Glancing at Bai Jin and seeing Bai Jin with his head down, Zhao only felt uncomfortable panting, afraid that he would be seen that his expression was wrong, so Zhao hurriedly comforted himself. This is something that men learn, what is the use of a girl learning this so thoroughly?
Bai Qiao clutched the handkerchief and lowered his head and twisted it into a roll. Whatever it is, Bai Qiao seems to be stronger than her, and he is really angry! Although he was angry, Bai Jin was afraid that the old lady would endorse her, so he quickly lowered his head a little more.
After a few simple questions, the old lady instructed the maids to cook and eat. Brother Yan let out a big breath in his heart and began to eat. But that's it! Fortunately, it wasn't him who asked, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to answer. This big sister doesn't seem to like to talk, but I didn't expect to know so much.
I know that my brother thinks the same way, but it seems that something is not quite right.
Halfway through the meal, the old lady suddenly remembered something and put down the chopsticks: "Old family, I remember that Sister Qiao's mother used to have some wedding shops in her hands, but who has been taking care of them in recent years?" ”
Zhao's hand trembled when eating, and he smiled a little embarrassedly: "Why did my mother ask this?" ”
"When I'm older, I suddenly remember."
Zhao's smile was not very good-looking: "It's my daughter-in-law, business has been sluggish in the past few years, and I have to lose a few hundred taels every year." The daughter-in-law is also trying to find a way to get out. ”
"It's not always a way to sell out, let's see how to expand the income. Sister Qiao is also thirteen years old this year, you teach her more. ”
"What my mother said is that my daughter-in-law is also planning to teach Sister Qiao~ Sister Qiao is smart and wants to learn quickly." Zhao's laughter is more ugly than crying.
This old lady is really partial to Sister Qiao! The eccentricity is gone! Zhao was annoyed in his heart, but he couldn't say it. The old lady has been in Beijing for many years, and she contradicted her just a few days after she came back, and she didn't need to be embarrassed when it was spread.
"Hmm." The old lady nodded and continued to eat.
Bai Qiao did not speak from beginning to end. Father intends to let Zhao take back his mother's dowry shop, so wait for her father to put it on the agenda, and then she will speak.
After eating, everyone was afraid of disturbing the old lady's nap, so they quickly dispersed.
At that time, Bai Shiye came back outside, and went back to the yard to wash up before coming out.
Zhao didn't sleep, so he sent Mama Zhao out to guard, don't let the idlers and others get closer.
Bai Shiye looked at Zhao who was sitting on the edge of the bed, walked over and sat next to him, and said, "What's wrong?" ”
"The old lady said that I would teach Sister Qiao to take care of the shop." Zhao sneered, looked at Bai Shiye's expression, and waited for him to answer.
"What my mother said is that Sister Qiao is thirteen years old, it's time to learn, and she will be at the age of marriage in two years."
Zhao bit his lip: "But the shop loses a few hundred taels every year, and I still use the harvest in my mother's village to make up for it." If it is handed over to Sister Qiao, I am afraid that it will scare Sister Qiao. I calculated, it is better to let Sister Qiao learn to take care of the grain shop on Yongning Street where I married, although the harvest is small, but it is always a positive number. ”
"It's okay, it's just a few hundred taels, just add it."
Zhao only felt a sullen breath rushing to the top of his head! Where is the old lady eccentric Bai Qiao, it is clear that they are all partial Bai Qiao! This one who came back halfway robbed Sister Jin of all the limelight, not to mention, and now even the favor has been snatched.
"By the way, sir, I remembered something. Is what the monk of Daqing Temple said before really okay? This rashly brought Sister Qiao back, our family ......"
Bai Shiye glanced at Zhao, and took off his boots with a rough palm: "Why did you talk about this again?" It's been okay all these years, Qiaoqiao is getting older and older, if you don't take it back, will you really marry in Qianjiang? "It's been seven years, and the monk's words are still in my ears.
"Donor, this woman's life is in trouble, and I am afraid that it will affect the whole family. ’
'How? Did the master read it wrong? ’
If the monks do not speak, if they stay at home, great calamity will fall from heaven and rivers of blood will flow. If the donor believes in the poor monk, the poor monk will take the girl away. ’
A river of blood, what must it be like? If it weren't for the great changes in the world, I'm afraid it wouldn't be like this.
Bai Shiye sent someone to Daqing Temple to inquire afterwards, whether that monk was the abbot of Daqing Temple. Daqing Temple is the most sacred temple in Dachu, and everything it says cannot be fulfilled.
