dream of red mansion

Chapter 218 Xiangling Appears
After another polite exchange with Aunt Xue, Jia Qing turned around and looked at Daiyu Tanchun and the others with burning eyes.

Daiyu is so smart, seeing it, she immediately realized what Jia Qing meant, and Daiyu frowned, glaring at Jia Qing.

Tanchun also had the same expression, Yingchun smiled, Xichun didn't think so much, seeing Jia Qing looking at her, she immediately returned a cute smile.

Above, seeing Jia Qing's appearance, Jia's mother questioned: "Look at you, don't you want to ask your sisters for a bride price?"

Jia Qing said blankly: "Ah? Yes!"

Jia Mu laughed and scolded, "Where did they get the bride price for you!"

Jia Qing didn't mind and said: "That's okay, when they get together, it's the same for me in private! I'm not in a hurry."

"Pooh."

Hearing Jia Qing's words, Daiyu spat softly.It's just that in front of the elders, it's not easy to criticize Jia Qing, so I have to keep it in my heart.

The sisters are not good at reasoning, and Mother Jia and others laughed to themselves, but someone helped them out.

"Hey, I'm talking about the second brother. Now you are the master of juren, and you don't say what to reward us, but you also ask us plain-headed ordinary people for a gift. What's the reason?"

Jia Qing asked in shock: "Seeing how Second Sister-in-law looks like, is she ready to renege on her debt?"

Wang Xifeng rolled his eyes and scolded with a smile: "I think the second brother is becoming more and more greedy. You see, the ancestors love you and give you whatever is good for you. I haven't even said that the ancestors are partial, but you have made up my mind." coming!"

Indeed, it makes sense to give gifts with good meanings to younger brothers, elders, masters, etc. out of high hopes, but there is no such thing as bestowed by peers.Although being ranked first in the imperial examination is one of the four happy events in life, it is not marriage after all.

Let's just make a joke, Jia Qing accepted the gift, so he just left, so he said to Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue: "Today, my ancestors have so many people here, why don't you see Second Brother Bao and Sister Bao?"

Mrs. Wang said: "Your brother Bao went to school and hasn't come back yet.

That's right, brother Qing.Now that you are the top student in high school, you probably have a lot of experience in reading. Do you think it is possible for your second brother Bao to learn from you?
You also know that your second uncle pushes him very hard. If he can be like you and get a fame, your second uncle will not push him as much as he is now.

In this way, wouldn't it also complete your brotherhood? "

Mrs. Wang is really angry.Although he admitted verbally that his son was not as good as Jia Qing in reading, he still believed that his Baoyu was as intelligent as anyone else, but he was still immature...

So she, like Jia Mu, was unwilling to force him prematurely.

But now that Jia Qing was taking the lead, she had to get nervous.Perhaps Baoyu is no longer young!
If Baoyu can be like Jia Qing, and can also win the middle school, the relationship between Baoyu and Jia Zheng's father and son will be very different.

It should be noted that when Jia Zheng was young, he also had to take the imperial examination to become an official. However, after failing the provincial examination twice, Duke Xianrong did not let him continue the examination. The Supreme Emperor immediately allowed Jia Zheng to study in the ministry and take the title of master.

That is to say, although Jia Zheng loves to read and study, he does not have the fame of raising others, which is a pity for him!If Baoyu can surpass him on this point, then he will definitely not criticize Baoyu again when he is studying!
This is her idea.

In this regard, Jia Qing said that there was nothing he could do.

Jia Baoyu couldn't win Juren.

This is not because he is not knowledgeable, nor is he not wise enough.What's more, he looks down on the "eight-legged career" from the bottom of his heart, and looks down on the mediocrity of the court.

Life is only for Fengyue.

Jia Qing didn't think he could change such a high-spirited, fresh and elegant attitude!
"As long as Second Brother Bao has this intention, let alone learn from me, I can even ask my master to bring Second Brother Bao with me when I enter the mansion to listen to the teachings. My master likes to teach his children the most, and he will never refuse , so within a year or so, Yibao's second brother's talent will definitely surpass me.

But there is a prerequisite for this, Ma'am, you can completely convince my second brother Bao to let him concentrate on studying.Otherwise, Second Brother Bao would not only fail to learn the scriptures by following me, but with my master’s temper, I’m afraid that Second Brother Bao would be punished. At that time, not to mention my guilt, even my wife would feel sorry for me, wouldn’t I? "

That's the end of Jia Qing's words. With Fang Shou's temperament, he would never mind having a student who listened to Jia Qing when he was teaching him.However, Jia Qing was sure that Jia Baoyu would never go. People like Fang Shou were definitely the most feared thing in his life, not one of them.

But if Mrs. Wang really has the means to subdue Jia Baoyu, it will not be difficult.In view of past sentiments, Jia Qing didn't mind giving him a helping hand.

After all, Jia Baoyu is really a good person through and through.These days, there are not many men with a good heart like him.

Not to mention, when Mrs. Wang and Jia Mu heard that Jia Qing was willing to recommend Jia Baoyu to Fang Shou, their eyes lit up at the same time, and they were quite moved.

But, thinking about it again, I feel that this matter is difficult to handle.They knew Jia Baoyu's temperament, not to mention, they almost didn't want Jia Baoyu to leave their sight for a moment.

However, when I think about it, if there is such a famous Confucianist as Fang Shou, it must be many times better than Jia Dairu in the family school.

For Jia Baoyu's future, they also had to consider this.

Therefore, it is difficult to choose for a while.

At this time, almost everyone in the room was waiting for Mrs. Jia Muwang's decision.

Yingchun, Daiyu and others thought to themselves, if Jia Baoyu specialized in learning like Jia Qing in the future, I don't know what kind of situation it will be.

Aunt Xue also looked at it with a smile, but he just looked at Jia Qing who was smiling and calm, and praised in his heart: This child really deserves the family's love for him, he is neither arrogant nor impatient, and he is willing to support his elder brother.Jia's mansion can produce such juniors, it really is the ancestor's blessing!
After a long time, it was Jia's mother who made a prompt decision and said decisively: "Since you have such a good intention, Brother Qing, my wife and I will accept your kindness. Later, I will try to persuade Baoyu to let him go to school with you!"

As soon as Mother Jia made a decision, Mrs. Wang agreed without hesitation, and still said a few good words.

The atmosphere in the hall became better and better.

Jia Baoyu didn't know that his future was decided in this Yucitang, otherwise, he would definitely not go to Xue Pan's place to drink today...

Jia Qing didn't expect that Jia's mother would agree.When he thought about it, didn't Jia's mother always disapprove of Jia Zheng forcing Jia Baoyu to study?Otherwise, in the original book, Jia Baoyu would not have gone further and further under the title of "No. [-] incompetent in the world".

How did Jia Qing know that Jia's mother felt that Jia Zheng's reading was a bit pedantic, and she didn't think he could teach Jia Baoyu well.She likes romantic, smart and spiritual people the most, and she doesn't want Jia Baoyu to become like Jia Zheng.

But Fang Shou was different. No matter how conceited Mother Jia was, she wouldn't think that this cabinet minister who can handle the government of a country is a useless person, right?In today's world, after all, we still pay attention to a society where "acquire civil and martial arts and sell them to the emperor's family".

Being a butcher for an official is the highest pursuit of a person. Now that she has this opportunity, she is not a short-sighted person, so she naturally knows how to choose.

The matter of Jia Baoyu was settled, Jia Qingfu asked, "Why don't you see Sister Bao?"

Aunt Xue said with a smile: "She hasn't been feeling well recently, so I left her in the house to recuperate, so I didn't come."

"Damn, damn, I didn't know about Sister Bao's illness, and I never went to see it. I still have the face to accept a big gift from my aunt today. I have no place to put my face..."

Jia Qing said half-truth and half-falsely.

Jia Mu smiled from above and said, "Since that's the case, why don't you go and see it now? My aunt loves you so much, and she gave you all the good things that my own son couldn't bear. Why don't you show it well?"

Jia Qing immediately agreed: "Then the grandpa and grandson went?"

The sisters had been sitting for half a day, and they had accumulated a lot of things to ask Jia Qing, but seeing that he was about to leave, all of them couldn't sit still.

Jia Mu said, "Go, go.

You guys should go too, I know you sisters and brothers have a good relationship, so I definitely want to have a good talk right now.

Let's all go, let's all go and see your sister Bao. "

The sisters were overjoyed and got up one after another to thank Jia Mu.

Aunt Xue said: "In this way, I will go back too, so I can take care of their brothers and sisters."

Jia's mother said: "No need, aunt and wife don't need to bother, brother Qing is considered sensible now, and knows how to take care of his sisters.

The concubine will stay, let's talk together, maybe we can play cards later. "

So, Aunt Xue said: "Then follow the old lady's words."

After speaking, she said to the servant girl who had been standing behind her and brought the four treasures of the study:

"Xiangling, take the young masters and ladies there, but be careful."

Xiangling replied: "Yes, ma'am."
