Chapter 235: About Making Friends
Haitang has also been vaccinated at Xie Wenzai's place, so he can rest assured that he can continue to inquire about the news.
In the letter from the Empress Dowager Zhou to the Duke of Zhenguo, did she say anything else?
Jin Jiashu refused to say anything more about Haijiao, so was he more frank in front of the old military master and others?
Haitang felt that today's cousin was particularly good at talking, so she planned to go all out and ask for more information from him.
However, Xie Wenzai was a little distracted. It seems that from the beginning, he has been thinking about something, and he has not paid attention to Haitang's question. Haitang asked two more questions, and he asked her with a smile: "Why did you ask so many things today?" When did Tang Tang become so interested in the affairs of the little brother of the Jin family? Even your brother always likes to go to the little brother of the Jin family, and enthusiastically help him inquire about the progress of the investigation of the Jin family's case. ”
Haitang blinked, and sighed in her heart that she was sorry, but she still had a pleasing smile on her face: "Because my brother and Jin Jiashu have become good friends." My brother thinks he is very pitiful and wants to help him, so I naturally have to share my brother's worries! She hugged Xie Wenzai's arm and said coquettishly, "Don't be angry, cousin. I just think that if you want to inquire about the news, instead of going to Sister Wenjun of the Zhou family, it is better to find your cousin and uncle! At least you're our own family, and even if you don't want to talk about it, you won't be angry with me. But if I look for Sister Wenjun, I have to be careful if I don't say the wrong thing. If I offend her, I'm going to cause trouble for grandpa and grandma! Then why should I leave my family and ask outsiders for help? ”
When Xie Wenzai heard this, his heart softened, and he couldn't help but show a loving smile on his face: "You little clever ghost!" It's just that I love to bully my cousin. ”
As for Haijiao and Jin Jiashu becoming good friends, he didn't mean to object, and sighed: "Boys of similar age and family background are really easier to play together." I used to think that it would be good for your brother to have Cui Xiaodao as a playmate, but I didn't expect that their master and servant originally had a good relationship, but the older they get, the more they are separated. In the past two years, your brother doesn't like to bring a knife when he goes out, and he only tells you if he has something on his mind, and he likes to take ideas alone, so he has to come to give us a few old men a hand. I was thinking that after returning to Chang'an, I would have to introduce your brother to a few children of the Zhou family of the same age as friends. How can a young man have no companion? Unexpectedly, he met the little brother of the Jin family first, and it didn't take long for him to get along, and he got acquainted. Does your brother prefer to associate with the children of the school because he has been studying since he was a child? ”
Haitang said: "This mainly depends on whether the temperament of the two parties is compatible, right?" It doesn't have much to do with family background. My brother went to the Zhenguo Mansion today, and he also met a few children of the Zhou family, and they got along very well. The elder brother also said that they had made an appointment to go hunting together in the future! ”
Xie Wenzai smiled and nodded: "It's good to know a few more friends, but you don't have to be limited to literature or martial arts." Now that your grandfather has just returned to Chang'an, many old people have to get acquainted with each other again before they can move around again. If you two brothers and sisters want to make friends, you can only find them from the Zhou family nearby, and after a long time, you can meet more people. But when your brother goes to study in Weixue, he will get to know more than just the children of the Zhou family. When the time comes, he will have more new friends of similar age and temperament. ”
Haitang blinked: "Wei Xue?" My brother wants to study in the health school? ”
Of course, the reef has to go to the health school. Although the Hai family has good teachers, the matter of going to school on the reef was raised as early as Suzhou City, but for various reasons, it did not take place at that time. Now that the Hai family has arrived in Chang'an, and the conditions are much stronger than Suzhou City in all aspects, how can Haixiya continue to let his grandson stay at home and study behind closed doors? Going to Weixue can not only learn more knowledge, but also make more friends, expand contacts, and exercise the interpersonal skills of grandchildren.
It's just that Haitang listened to Xie Wenzai's words, and couldn't help but cry tears of sympathy for her brother. In the future, if you want to be like this, you can do whatever you like, and you can check whoever you like, but it will not be so easy. Chang'an's health studies, I heard that homework is not easy. Besides, Haixi Cliff, Xie Wenzai, Cao Gengyun, and Lu Bainian could not tolerate the reef messing around. And if he wants to excel in his studies, he can't put in a little more effort.
After all, Haijiao is an "older" out-of-school teenager who has left books for more than 20 years and has only picked up his homework again in the past two years, and his foundation in cultural classes is very thin.
Haitang tried to hide the strange expression on his face, and used the topic of "Weixue" to bring up the matter of Hai Chang'an going to Chang'an Guard to coach.
Xie Wenzai really knew it a long time ago: "I mentioned it in front of Grandpa Guo, and Grandpa Guo immediately sent a message to order someone to arrange it." In fact, the Zhenguo Mansion didn't care about Chang'an and his father. Clear-eyed people know that they were kicked out by the Chang family as outcasts, and they will not make the Chang family uncomfortable. It's just that some people are narrow-minded and get angry. If Grandpa Guo cared, Chang'an's father would not have been an official in Chang'an for so long. However, the world is so ignorant, and the Zhenguo Mansion can't promote its ideas everywhere, so Chang'an has been restrained for so long. Now that he is assigned a teaching position, presumably the people of the Zhou clan and outsiders can understand the meaning of Grandpa Guo. It just so happens that Chang'an is very skilled in archery, and he went to Weixue to teach, and he can also train a few more archers for the Northwest Frontier Army. ”
Haitang smiled: "The second uncle is happy, and the second aunt is crying with joy!" The second uncle said that he admired Zhen Guogong very much, and said that his character was a hundred times better than that of the Chang family! ”
Xie Wenzai couldn't help laughing: "Of course. The conduct of the Chang family ......" he paused, did not continue, only said, "Chang'an has been silent since returning to Chang'an, except for a few familiar relatives and friends, there are almost no outsiders. I also know that he has a knot in his heart, and it is difficult to persuade him much. Now that the Zhenguo Mansion has spoken, he doesn't need to think too much. Isn't it a pity to be young and in the prime of life, stuck at home with nothing to do? He has an errand, he is a little busier every day, and he can be less cranky. If he has made achievements in health studies, he does not have to stick to a position of archery teaching, and he is expected to officially enter the official career if he rises one level. After all, he is a great eunuch, and his father is so talented, he can't be buried, right? Even if it is for the sake of the future of his children and grandchildren, it is time for him to regain his strength. ”
As for the Chang family, the Zhou family is still in charge of the Chang'an territory, and the Chang family has not yet been able to make any big things. Besides, now the Chang family is enough to help King Ji send the ambitious Prince Ji away, where is there still the leisure to take care of the little abandoned son in the northwest?
Haitang was also quite interested in the information of the Chang family, and was about to follow Xie Wenzai's tone to inquire, but Cao Gengyun and Lu Bainian came over. They had just taken a nap when they heard movement next door, and knew that Xie Wenzai had returned home, so they hurried to inquire about the news.
The three old men had something to say, and they felt that the little girl was present, so they were uncomfortable, so they blasted out the begonias together. Begonia had to reluctantly go back to her room.
When the sun turned west, the three elders were still muttering in the house, and the reef had already returned with their horses. Seeing the movement in the guest room, he hurriedly sent the horse back to the carriage barn, and went to Xie Wenzai to speak.
Haitang hurriedly ran to the front yard and waved at her brother, constantly wincing: "I have something to tell you, it's important news!" ”
Haijiao raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I have something to tell you too." I don't think your message is as important as mine! ”
