Mrs. Cheng said with a straight face, "People can't stand without faith, since you are willing to go to the academy to study, and I have also greeted the gentlemen, you must not change it lightly, otherwise what will the gentlemen of the academy think of you?" Moreover, the journey of learning is already hard, today is your eldest sister returning home, and in a few days there will be a troupe coming to the house to sing, and there will be all kinds of accidents in the future. ”

Although Mrs. Cheng loves her children, she doesn't spoil them, especially in the matter of reading, and she doesn't condone Cheng Jin at all.

Cheng Jin blushed when she said, "Auntie, I was wrong." ”

"It's good to know what you're wrong." Mrs. Cheng's face softened, and she touched her head, "I know you want to talk to your eldest sister, you will live in her yard these days, and when you come back from school, it is not too late to talk to her well, your eldest sister is a good learner, you can ask her more for advice in your homework, if she knows that you are unwilling to go to school for her, her heart will not be happy." ”

Mrs. Cheng is a scholarly family, although Cheng Mingzhi can be shaded, but she still has a heart to let them take the imperial examination, fight a good background, so she strongly advocated the establishment of this family science, when the old man Cheng was still alive, and the palace Cheng Concubine was strongly supportive of this, so the family science was done like this, originally just invited one or two gentlemen to enlighten the children at home, and later Cheng Ping won the title of Marquis of Chengen, so he rented a courtyard across the street from the Hou Mansion, and invited several gentlemen, not only to enlighten the children of the family, The children of the Cheng clan can also study here, and the sound of books every day adds a bit of bookish flavor to the upstart Cheng Mansion in the capital.

Although Mr. Fan, who is in charge of the family studies, is only a person who has repeatedly fallen into the ranks, he is known for his talent, and Mrs. Cheng has made great efforts to rely on the relationship of her mother's family to invite him to teach in the family studies.

Although Mrs. Cheng is Mrs. Hou from a scholarly family, she is very polite in front of Mr. Fan, which shows that Mr. Fan's knowledge is profound.

Mr. Fan has heard of the five girls in the Hou Mansion who was born stupid, but it is the first time they have met, and they are quite interested in her bizarre encounters.

"Can you read?" Mr. Fan asked casually, not expecting her answer, after all, he had been stupid for more than ten years, and he had only been better for a few days, and it was impossible for him to read and write.

"I borrowed "Thousand Character Essays", "Hundred Family Names", "Thousand Family Poems" and "Cheng's Selected Essays" yesterday, and these four books have been able to be recited, and the words in them have also been memorized." Cheng Jin replied vividly.

Mr. Fan frowned slightly, an unenlightened child memorized four books in one day, and had already recognized the words in the books, which was simply unheard of, and even an unborn genius could not be so.

He expected that the girl's family wanted to save face, and he didn't want to study with those four or five-year-old Mengtong, and he lied, but the most important thing in reading and learning is to be down-to-earth, and he should not be half false, let alone have such a vain mind, and such a style has already made him dislike it first.

But Mrs. Cheng was here, and he couldn't reprimand Cheng Jin in person, so he wanted to teach her a lesson.

"What is the thirty-ninth surname of a hundred family names?" Mr. Fan asked, twisting his beard.

Mrs. Cheng is a little worried, Cheng Jin just read "Hundred Family Names" yesterday, Mr. Fan used such a partial question to test her, it is too much, according to her, it is better to let Cheng Jin memorize the book again.

"It's Dou." Before Mrs. Cheng could say anything, Cheng Jin replied without hesitation.

Perhaps this is right? Mr. Fan's eyebrows jumped, "Seventy-three? ”

"Teng." Cheng Jin replied without thinking.

If the first one is lucky, the second one is definitely not, Mr. Fan looked at her suspiciously, and continued to ask, "You said that you read the "Thousand Character Text", what is the aftermath of 'Nu Mu Chastity'?" ”

"Male effect is good," Cheng Jin paused slightly, and when he saw that Mr. Fan didn't shout to stop, he took care of himself and memorized it, "If you know it, you must change it, and you have to ......be able to forget it."

The voice of the eleven-year-old girl is crisp, like a yellow warbler out of the valley, like a pearl falling on a jade plate, which is forgettable.

Looking at Mr. Fan's increasingly shocked look, Mrs. Cheng's original locked brows gradually relaxed, and when she learned that Cheng Jin seemed to have the ability to never forget yesterday, the shock and joy were more than Mr. Fan's.

“…… The predicate helper is also a blessing. Cheng Jin memorized the last word without hurrying, and this breath was memorized, but his breath was stable and not in a hurry.

"Is this really the fifth girl in the house?" Mr. Fan looked at Mrs. Cheng in disbelief, didn't he say that Cheng Jin was a fool? It's clearly a prodigy! "Haven't you really read before?"

"I have read it," Mrs. Cheng didn't have time to answer, and Cheng Jin replied aloud, "My eldest sister often reads to me, and she has read these books to me. ”

Cheng Jin's words finally made Mr. Fan not so unacceptable, he knew that some people were sick, so they couldn't speak, like dementia, but they understood in their hearts, only when Cheng Jin was demented, smart is indeed smart, but not so smart that it is against the sky.

So, Mr. Fan stroked his beard and smiled at Mrs. Cheng, "The fifth girl is very talented, she doesn't have to be in the same class as the Mengtongs, she can go to school with the eleventh son, what does Mrs. think?" ”

"But according to Mr.'s arrangement, these children in the family have a stubborn temperament, and Mr. needs to bother to teach." Mrs. Cheng smiled, secretly relieved in her heart, Cheng Jin is eleven years old after all, if she is really enlightened with four or five years old Meng Tong, I am afraid it will hurt her face, after all, she is not a fool now, and the girl's family is always thin-skinned.

Although Cheng Mingyuan is younger than Cheng Jin, there is not much difference between them, and there are children of the same age in their class, and Cheng Yu, the daughter of the third room, is the same age as Cheng Jin and is also in their class.

"Madam," Mr. Fan hesitated for a moment, and said with a wry smile, "If the eleventh prince is not hardworking, I am afraid that the five girls will also be the latecomers, and at the end of the year, Mr. Gao will take the examination for all the students, if the eleventh prince can't pass, I'm afraid he will have to study with Mengtong in the future." ”
