There is a screen in the room, and a beautiful chiming clock is ticking.

Next to it is placed the beauty of Ru kiln firing, fragrant sandalwood, dazzling Baoding.

The furnishings are extremely luxurious!

Mrs. Wang was wearing a money python satin makeup, and her face was full of kindness.

There are two reasons why Jia Zheng is complicated;

First, Baoyu is obviously "auspicious from the sky", and he was born with a piece of psychic jade.

However, the status quo is.

All the men of the jade and grass characters in Jia Mansion were all compared to Jia Cong!

This is by no means alarmist or exaggerated.

In the reply letters of Liu Hua and Qin Ye, it has been clearly stated.

Jia Cong is not only good at reading, but he also took the first place in the county trial for this year.

And the ability to do things is very strong, not afraid of the bitter cold, the mountains and rivers are far away.

There are small statements in Wanping and Gu'an counties in Zhili Province.

Second, and most importantly, this is the case.

Jia Cong's strategy of governing the river has been successively inspected by the Imperial History and the Governor of Zhili.

As well as the eye-catching and appreciative of a big man, the theory of cement production is also beginning to take shape in the Ministry of Industry.

Reasonable.

Jia Zheng served as a member of the Ministry of Industry, and he was Jia Cong's cousin.

Why didn't he give it to him, but to Qin Ye?

There are so many thoughts.

Naturally, Lord "Jia Zheng" has mixed feelings in his heart, and it is difficult to express it.

But.

Even if he is dissatisfied, he will not suppress and contain Jia Cong because of this.

Although Jia Zheng was pedantic and rigid and did not understand change, he was deeply influenced by Confucianism.

In the original work of the Red Mansion; Lin Ruhai once said to Jia Yucun that Jia Zheng "is by no means a light-hearted person".

For the state affairs, for the family affairs, between the interests of the family.

He can twist right from wrong.

The family needs to be united, and all starting points must consider the interests of the family.

At present, only Jia Zheng is an official in the court, and Jia Cong cannot be suppressed at this time.

You have to pave the way for him in advance, this is the ancient patriarchal family.

"Hmm...... Thank you for not needing, Brother Cong, you have not only earned a good reputation for the family in governing the river.

I also won the county test, so I don't forget my family's lintel.

My Jia family's ancestors started with military exploits, four kings and eight dukes, only one of the two dukes, and I am the minister of the dragon.

At present, there is peace today, and there has been no war for a long time, so it is necessary to use force to turn into literature.

At this moment, there is no one who is an official of Jinshi, and you must remember ......."

Jia Zheng stroked his flowing beard and mentioned the demeanor of his elders: "The government exam is imminent, and good students will take the exam!" Qin Langzhong is ready to resign.

You go to report the good news, and by the way, strengthen the way of the times. ”

"Yes, sir." Jia Cong replied.

Where there is contrast, there is harm, and this is true of everything.

Originally, there was a comparison with Jia Huan, a child who was not a weapon, and Jia Baoyu looked pretty good.

Now that Jia Cong is out, this idea is not necessarily true.

Jia Zheng looked back at Baoyu again, and the more he looked at it, the more angry he became, and suddenly his face straightened and he scolded him harshly.

"You wicked! As an elder brother, he can't do anything.

Cheng Ri's family is sad in spring and autumn, nesting in the house and messing around with the maid, what kind of system is it?

Still not down? Save my eyes! ”

"Ah.......h

Hearing his father's scolding, Jia Baoyu was at a loss for a while, the two trembled, and the chrysanthemums tightened.

Mrs. Wang hurriedly groped Baoyu's arm lovingly, and her heart was ruthless: "It's not because of Jia Cong?"

That little maid is really hateful! Frightened my son! ”

Sanchun quit.

Jia Cong also withdrew unhurriedly.

Aunt Zhao lifted the curtain at the door and walked out of the corridor under the corridor.

Jia Yingchun said with a smile: "Brother Cong, you can come out this time." ”

Jia Cong winked at her: "Thanks to the second sister." ”

"I love to hear that."

Jia Yingchun's white and tender face was full of pride: "Catch up with Ming'er, I also have a good brother who is a Jinshi and the first." ”

Jia Tanchun was sad, and for some reason, she should have been happy.

But seeing that their sister and brother get along well, she is always a little sour and sullen in her heart.

Jia Xichun pulled Raja Cong's sleeve and whispered, "Hey, the bookstore you opened outside has entered the project."

Someone gave me a few taels of silver a few days ago, saying that it was the silver that sold a few paintings. ”

Jia Cong also whispered: "This matter can't be spread by the people below."

In the future, you will come directly to Tie Niu to ask for it, and it will spread that you will have a bad reputation for the fourth sister. ”

"Hmm." Xichun lowered his head and stirred Xiupa.

Jia Cong's heart moved: "He feels that he needs to cultivate a few cronies, anyway, he will cultivate slowly."

When he obtains a higher level of fame, he doesn't have to look for it himself, and the slave will take the initiative to find him. ”

Raise people, jinshi, no need to pay taxes and serve!

It can also be exempted from the tax of certain domestic slaves, and the house sits.

There will be people who will put themselves and their land in your name.

So with power, money, it's not a problem.

This is how land annexation in feudal society also came.

Fame! Official!

This is the foundation of Jia Cong's salvation tragedy and foothold!

........

Rongguofu West Road.

Jia's mother went to the room.

Jia Cong still asked An to come out, and Jia's mother's attitude was indifferent.

But Jia Cong made no mistakes in etiquette, and brought back a good reputation, and she didn't want to criticize anything.

Wait for Jia Cong to quit.

The mandarin duck served on the side, and Jia's mother couldn't rest assured that Baoyu was relieved, so she called Mingyan to come over and talk back.

Mingyan is a close little guy around Baoyu and knows a lot.

Who dared to hide it in front of the old lady, he honestly confessed that the second master scolded the second master.

When Jia Mu heard this, she said indignantly: "It's either beating or scolding!" Pity my Baoyu! ”

The reason for this.

Jia Mu couldn't have imagined that it must be because Jia Cong won the county exam.

Jia Zheng was unhappy and dissatisfied with Baoyu.

At this time, Wang Xifeng came in to say goodbye: "The second master means to ask Baoyu to study, and the second wife also agrees." ”

Mother Jia said distressedly: "How old is Baoyu, do everything according to your ability, how can you suffer if you are excessive?" ”

"Hey...... Ancestor, I don't think it's okay! ”

Wang Xifeng smiled like a flower: "Baoyu is auspicious from the sky and has a rich body, smart!"

Brother Cong's nightmare aura is illusory, just listen to him alone, and we can't see it.

Baoyu's psychic treasure jade, but it's real! I inquired.

There is a re-examination before the April government examination, and you can take the government examination after passing the examination.

Wanping is not far away, and it is not difficult to send a few minions to follow, and it is not difficult to estimate that Baoyu wants to be hit. ”

Wang Xifeng persuaded like this, and Jia's mother also calmed down.

The thoughts of the son and daughter-in-law are afraid that they are still stimulated by Brother Cong'er's child.

Alas.... It's not worry-free, it's just my Baoyu.

"Let's just let him toss it once, it's a trivial matter to miss the horizontal and vertical, and he must protect Baoyu's safety."

Mother Jia groaned for a while, and after speaking heartily, she was still not at ease: "The clothes, bedding, snacks, gold and silver must be taken care of, and you can also help take care of the mandarin ducks." ”

Wang Xifeng's literacy is selective, first of all, opera, account names.

She definitely recognizes some, however, she can't write!

specially asked the scholar Cai Ming around him to keep accounts, and once asked Baoyu to come in and write on his behalf.

Later, when the Daguan Garden was raided, Wang Xifeng read the letter written by Pan You'an to Si Qi.

The original book has an explanation: Wang Xifeng gradually became literate because of his housekeeping.

In other words, before Wang Xifeng got married, he was semi-illiterate!

In fact.

Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue, and Wang Xifeng from the Wang family, their cultural literacy is generally not high.

Perhaps the education of the Wang family is "a woman's lack of talent is virtue", and the Wang family is also a martial arts family.

So, how can Wang Xifeng really understand the difficulties of the imperial examination?

Talents like Tang Bohu, Tang Xianzu, Xu Guangqi, Pu Songling, Cao Xueqin and so on have all been defeated and sunk in the sand.

However, Wang Xifeng knows Jia Mu's heart that is biased towards the country of Guawa.

Lady Wang's Hospital.

Wang Xifeng comforted: "Mrs., Brother Bao is blessed with that piece of life, and he will definitely be able to enter the Shiji and the first......

Brother Cong, do you want to inform your uncle?

Ask the Qing guest to write a letter, and then let the examiner get stuck? ”

"Stupid!"

Mrs. Wang stopped knocking on the wooden fish and said in a deep voice: "My family will kill my own family."

Don't talk about the attitude of the eldest lord and the lord, do you think your uncle will agree? ”

"That's what Madame said."

Wang Xifeng smiled, and immediately closed his mouth, as well-behaved as a lady.

Helpless.

In the bottom of my heart, I became more and more helpless about Jia Cong, and there was a deep sense of frustration.

.......

.......

Jia Cong's article on the top of the case has long been circulated among the sisters.

Daiyu and Baochai have also heard of it.

And at this time.

While thinking about the "way of the Qi family", he went to the Qin Mansion in Nancheng.

Qin Zhong also went back to report the good news earlier.

Qin Hai led the horses into the mansion, but the Qin mansion did not raise horses, and they were all hired in the past.

can only be tied to the stump on the other side of the warehouse, and his tone is a little weak: "The master has resigned, and the third master can come over every day."

Fortunately, Zhong Ye is also following suit, our hometown is also in Jinling, and we can't go back when we are idle......"

The ancients paid attention to the return of fallen leaves, and if Qin Ye died one day, the coffin would be transported back to his homeland in the south.

However, as long as Qin Zhong took the exam in the north, Qin Ye would not return to his hometown easily.

's own son, he knows best how many pounds and taels he has.

Qin Zhong is still in the north, but if he goes to the south, he will definitely be strangled by the talents of Jiangnan in the science field.

To put it mildly, the South can't admit candidates.

Maybe you can also kill the candidates on the list in the north.

This is due to regional educational disparities and cultural atmospheres.

And Qin Zhong was on the list this time, and the fundamental reason was that he was affected by Jia Cong's butterfly effect.

Sometimes.

A good friend and a good environment can really change a person's life.

Jia Cong casually talked a few nonsense, and then went to the main hall to meet Qin Ye.

As soon as I entered the door.

I saw Qin Ye leaning on the soft couch and talking and laughing with Qin Zhong and Qin Keqing.

I saw him coming.

Qin Keqing pursed his lips, and immediately stopped talking, nor did he look at him.

Jia Cong didn't squint, stepped forward, and sat down on the spring stool: "Mr. has resigned?" ”

"You should not think about these things, and you should not blame yourself, whether others impeach you or not.

I'm old, I'm not strong, I have more than enough energy......."

Qin Ye said lightly, and said a few words lightly.

Jia Cong said in his heart: "In Vanity Fair, if you don't take the initiative to fight for it, you can't protect yourself and get on top."

Qin Ye is afraid of causing trouble, and he is a powerful minister from the past and present.

Who doesn't have a few dirty, dirty, vile and shameless things......."

"This business trip to investigate has made me feel more energetic....... Ahem.

At this age, his body is not very sharp, and he really can't stand the busy official duties.

It's okay like this, you and Zhong'er have helped each other, and I have no regrets, but ......."

Qin Ye coughed for a while, and finally glanced at his daughter.

Qin Keqing's eyes dimmed, shook his head slightly, and silently retreated from the side road.

Jia Cong got up and pulled up the quilt under the bed, and came over with a decoction to feed it.

"Mr. Jin'er doesn't need to talk about the current language anymore, there is still more than a month before the house test.

The students are saved, the officialdom is in danger, and the gentleman is wise to protect himself.

Retreat bravely from the rapids, won't there be us in the future? ”

Jia Cong smiled and said, "The student once heard an interesting story among the people; There were two men who worked together.

One of them chose to relax in the shade of a tree, while the other worked tirelessly to sweat like rain.

The laborer complained to the cooler: 'Why don't you work?' ’

The cooler asks, 'What do you want for so hard work?' ’

The laborer replied: 'In order to be able to enjoy the shade under the tree one day, drink tea and play chess'

When he heard this, he smiled lightly, pointed to himself, and said, "You see, I have already done what you said. ’”

Qin Ye was overjoyed when he heard this: "Hahaha! You can say that again! Yang Sheng'an, a talented man in the Northern Ming Dynasty, also said.

How many things in ancient and modern times are laughing and talking.

Zhong'er, you still have to learn more from your junior and disciples, sometimes what a person strives for.

In fact, it's right in front of you, but you don't pay attention to it and lose it. ”

～～～～～

Aural boudoir.

Baozhu asked Qin Keqing: "Is the girl willing?" Just open your mouth, let's talk! ”

Rui Zhu was also eager to try: "Let me say, Third Master Cong is also twelve years old, and he should marry in a few years."

On the other hand, girls of the same age as our flowers are going to turn into yellow flowers! ”

"Oh, don't mess around, how can a woman be impatient when you get married in ancient times?

Besides, my junior brother is so young, and I can't open my mouth......."

"Since ancient times, why should those who have become big things take care of the small sections, the girl is relaxed, and the third master Cong should not mind."

"Not anyway!"

Qin Keqing stomped his feet shyly: "If you guys mess around again, I'm going to send it away." ”

Ruizhu rolled his eyes and said, "If you want us not to mess around, I just have a way here."

The girl is knowledgeable, so she might as well write a sentence that does not make sense, which implies that others do not understand.

Third Master Cong must understand, in this way, there is no right or wrong......."

Baozhu clapped his hands and agreed: "Okay, I think this method works, girl?"

Qin Keqing's face flushed, and she glared at the two girls who were not a big deal.

Then he bit his lip flap lightly, and hesitated for a while: "Little hooves, I'll block your mouth."

Treat it as a game; I'll give my junior brother an eight-strand question.

Is there any fate, he doesn't care, it just depends on this question?"

Ruizhu and Baozhu glanced at each other, their eyes instantly smiled into crescent moons, and they nodded again and again.

The second daughter took pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Qin Keqing rolled up his sleeves, pondered for a while, and wrote ten words on the bamboo paper:

How did he turn when he went to Qiubo?

..... Dividing line ......
