Chapter 58 Teaching by example
It is said that teaching by example is greater than words.
Jin Shu felt that this sentence was very reasonable. Instead of holding his ears and ordering him to study hard and prepare for next year's college entrance examination, it is better to take him directly to see the state of the three people in the prospective high school.
I heard that Wu Xiang's father opened a private school at home, invited the famous bachelor Mr. Ruan Jiaqiao to live in the house for a long time, and recruited poor bachelors to teach in the house. This group of children knew that there was only one way out to change their fate, so they did not go home during the Chinese New Year, and stayed at home to study hard.
What an example!
So Jinshu was very enthusiastic to ask to go to Wu Xiang's house as a guest in the first month, and Wu Xiang was bored and happily agreed.
On the third day, at the dinner table, Jinshu started to pave the way silently.
"I'm going to visit the eldest princess of Fuqing tomorrow, you can go with me." Jin Shu had a relaxed and happy expression: "How is it?" ”
"I'm not going." Shen Zhizhang shrugged his shoulders and laughed at himself: "You don't know, Wu Yuma is from Zhuangyuanlang, I heard that he is very high-minded, and the most despised is a person like me who does not learn and has no skills, why should I go to others to block it in the New Year?" ”
Jin Shu asked rhetorically, "Where did you hear that?" ”
"Aren't they all like that?" Shen Zhizhang looked right. Once upon a time, he followed a friend to visit an old pedant, and no one looked at him squarely, and he opened and closed his mouth with the meaning of "You are a layman, you don't understand what I say, I'd better shut up".
Jin Shu shook his head: "Hearing may not be true. She lowered her eyes and said calmly, with a slight sense of loss: "Okay, I'll go alone." Originally, it didn't matter, but I wasn't usually very sociable, and I just wanted to have someone together. ”
Retreat.
This girl is indeed taciturn sometimes, and is not very good at dealing with people, and when she goes outside, she pretends to be a quail, and does not say a word for a long time, and it seems really inappropriate to let her go alone. Where does the eldest princess go, Zheng Wenke is busy and takes time to accompany her, so compared with this, it seems that she is not doing very well?
Shen Zhizhang began to waver. He pondered this in his heart, so he nodded very happily and immediately agreed: "Okay!" "It's a big deal that the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth! Scold and scold, and there will be no less meat!
Jin Shu smiled happily: "That's great, thank you." ”
"No, no." Shen Zhizhang smiled, embarrassed. The heart said, what are you polite between the two of us, it should be!
Jin Shu smiled again and said: "Yesterday, the tailor shop in Xiji sent some clothes, I saw that there was a stone blue robe that was very good-looking, so I kept it for you, you will try it later, if you think it looks good, you will wear that tomorrow, right?" ”
Shen Zhizhang couldn't suppress his surprise in his eyes, he didn't expect her to have this trick at all, and hurriedly asked, "For me?" ”
"yes." Jin Shu smiled gently: "Let's try it after eating." ”
————————————
Mama Xu sat on the steps of the West Wing and felt a great sense of accomplishment.
I think that it was Mrs. Shen who ran to the Queen Mother to cry and complain, saying that the sixth princess always stayed in Mingyuan and ignored their mother and son, so the Queen Mother sent her over to arrange the arrangements. Now through her efforts, the situation has been reversed, and the relationship between the two has improved, Mama Xu feels that she is done, and it is time to go to Mrs. Shen to report the results and return to the palace.
She had just walked into the courtyard of Old Madam Shen when she heard laughter coming out of the inner room. There was a little girl in powder standing at the door who was feeding the parrot, and when she saw her coming, she hurriedly asked respectfully: "Mama, why are you here, but what is the matter with the old lady?" ”
"Yes, I'll talk to the old lady about something."
"Oh, that's the case, it's just that Aunt Furong came to greet the old lady and was talking in the house. Wait, I'll go in and give you a briefing. ”
Why is Aunt Fleur here? Mama Xu was suspicious, how could a concubine who couldn't get on the stage still be favored by the old lady? It's worth it! She hurriedly called out to the little girl and asked with a smile: "Little girl, you are slow, let me ask you a few words." ”
"What does Mama want to ask?"
"It's nothing, listening to this laughter, what happened to the old lady today, why are you so happy?" Mama Xu smiled tentatively.
"It's nothing, it's just that Aunt Fleur can sing a few small tunes, say some witty words, relieve boredom, and make the old lady happy." The little girl said crisply: "My aunt has always come over these days, and if she doesn't come one day, the old lady is still in a hurry!" ”
"Yo, then this aunt is a filial person."
"Yes, the medicine that the old lady has taken in the past few days, she has personally fried it and sent it." The little girl smiled: "Oh, that's right. If Mama has anything to say, even if it tells me, it will be the same for Mama I convey. ”
Mama Xu waved her hand: "I don't have anything to worry about, just come back another day." ”
This situation has changed a little! Old Madam Shen wants to raise Furong like this, isn't it clear that she can't get used to seeing the sixth princess? Looking at the capital, what mother of a colt would dare to do this? What's going on? Old Madam Shen doesn't look like a person who can't be carried clearly!
Mama Xu walked back to the East Courtyard with questions and decided to find the sixth princess to reflect on this question.
She immediately ran to the brocade study, and just wanted to speak, but she didn't expect Shen Zhizhang to be there. He was changing his clothes and tidying up his clothes in the mirror: "I think it's pretty good, I didn't expect you to have a good eye?" ”
Shen Zhizhang is tall and long-legged, with wide shoulders and narrow waist, the whole person is tall and well-proportioned, a standard hanger, and she wears anything in style, which is quite in line with her modern aesthetics.
"Hmm." Jinshu nodded and praised him seriously: "The main thing is that people are good-looking." ”
Shen Zhizhang's old face flushed: This pace is a bit fast?
Jinshu turned his head, looked at Mama Xu and said with a smile: "Mama is here, is there something wrong?" ”
Mama Xu glanced at Shen Zhizhang, but she still hesitated when the words came to her mouth: "It's okay, the old slave is here...... I want to ask the princess, what else do you have to add to the things you bring tomorrow? ”
Read between the lines.
Jinshu smiled slightly: "Xia Aya is ready, I didn't interfere in this matter, if Mama is not at ease, you can ask her." ”
"Miss Xia Aya, the old slave can rest assured. It's the old slave who talks a lot, so he retreats. Saying that, Mama Xu was about to turn around and go out.
"Mama. Say whatever you want, there's no outsider here. Jinshu stopped her: "Look at your look a little flustered, I think you are in a hurry." ”
"This ......" Mama Xu hesitated, reorganized her words, relaxed her brows, and looked relaxed: "Actually, it's nothing, but I went to the old lady's side today and saw that the old lady likes Aunt Furong very much." The old slave thought that the princess hadn't been to ask for peace for a few days, and she should go to ask the old lady for a good day. ”
Before Jinshu could react, Shen Zhizhang immediately jumped up and said in surprise: "My mother likes Hibiscus? How can it be? On weekdays, my mother wants to kick her out, but you must be mistaken. ”
"This ......" Mama Xu smiled: "How dare the old slave talk nonsense, it was the girl next to the old lady who said it." The old slave thought that the princess should also go to the old lady from time to time to say goodbye, so that she would not be lonely in the old man's house. ”
"Don't say it, Fleur, a woman who is not scheming and greedy for wealth, must have felt that she couldn't go my way, so she turned around and deceived my mother. It's not going to work, I'm going to have to take this scourge. It's on me. Shen Zhizhang only grasped the key points he was interested in, and after saying these words, he hurriedly walked out, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Nishikishu: Nani?
Mama Xu: Huh?
When the two of them came back to their senses, Jinshu couldn't help laughing.
Mama Xu was speechless: "Master Ma is too ......" too conscious, right?
In fact, even in ancient times when men had three wives and four concubines, there was no need for Jinshu to raise the banner of feminist marriage fairness and kill all the concubines, the important thing is not whether there are concubines or not, but the attitude of men.
Shen Zhizhang is worthy of praise at this point. Although his purpose was not to protect her. But instead of hiding behind him and ignoring it, he was the first to stand up and take the initiative to solve the problem.
Children can be taught.
At this moment, Jinshu suddenly understood why Concubine Jing would agree to her marrying Shen Zhizhang. Shen Zhizhang must have flashes of brilliance that she didn't find.
It was also at this moment that she suddenly had some hope for their future.
