Take the farm down to earth

Chapter 35 Selfishness
Lin Daiyu was taken aback for a moment, she really hadn't thought about this question, and she said in surprise after thinking for a moment, "There should be 500,000 words!"

In one sentence, the people present opened their mouths again, not knowing what to say.

It is difficult for ordinary people to memorize the Four Books and Five Classics. How difficult is it to memorize them backwards?
All of a sudden, it overturned the previous views of the female family members of Jia's family on Shi Zhongkui's nickname of nerd.

Yingchun, Tanchun, and Lin Daiyu even thought that this person probably put all his thoughts on studying, which made him seem unreasonable.

But when you think about that poem about being humble, it doesn't make any sense at all.

In the end, it was Jia Mu who sighed and said, "It seems that Mr. Shi has been hiding his clumsiness in the past. He became famous after he worshiped a famous teacher and gained support."

"That's right, mother, the son thinks so too."

After Jia Amnesty finished speaking, he looked at Mother Jia and saw the old lady nodding.

Then he continued with peace of mind, "Besides, what you don't know is that I heard that Shi Boqian wrote that poem on the spot in order to solve his teacher's troubles.

How could such a filial and alert child be an idiot. "

Jia Mu and the others could not help but nod again.

Jia Amnesty guessed at a glance that Jia's mother might have the same idea of ​​recruiting a son-in-law as himself.

He continued without delay, "It's a pity that Yu Honggao picked up a good apprentice for nothing.

And after today, when Shi Boqian is famous as a scholar, Yu Honggao will definitely benefit a lot.

When Shi Boqian really wins the Jinshi examination, or even the number one scholar, he doesn't know who is cheaper. "

Let alone Jia's mother now, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng, and Li Wan all heard what Jia Amnesty meant.

Back then, after Lin Ruhai passed the examination, Jia Daishan almost caught his son-in-law. When his daughter Jia Min got married, she was even more beautiful and had to do something special.

And this marriage has indeed given the Jia family a lot of rewards.

After all, those who help the emperor and his elders earn money must be the ones who are always remembered. Unfortunately, the emperor became the emperor, Lin Ruhai died early, and the Jia family cut off their biggest foreign aid.

Mother Jia thought to herself that it was time to find a new helper for the Jia family.

Tell Lin Daiyu, Jia Baoyu, Sanchun, Wang Xifeng, Li Wan and the maidservants to go back and rest.

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng wanted to drive away Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang, but seeing that Mrs. Jia didn't speak, they thought it over and let it go.

After the younger generation had left, Mother Jia looked at Jia Lian and asked, "Lian'er, you have been in contact with Shi Boqian, what is his character like?"

Jia Lian hurriedly replied, "Old lady, my child has been ordered to handle foreign affairs these years, and I have seen quite a few young heroes.

But there is no one whom Hai'er really admires, but Shi Boqian, Hai'er can only say that there is no one better than him in his generation. "

Mrs. Wang said with some jealousy, "Lian'er, you are not lying to the old lady, are you?"

It's a pity that Mrs. Wang didn't get what Jia Mu was thinking this time, so she saw Jia Mu smiling and waving, "Okay, old lady, I believe that Lian Er dare not lie to me in front of his father."

Because Jia She got a fan from Jia Lian, he praised it surprisingly, "Lian'er really put her heart into it this time, not only did what she explained well, but she also hit it off with Shi Boqian at first sight.

People even gave us a lot of good things. "

When Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang heard that there was something good, they immediately looked at Jia Lian.

Seeing Jia Lian pointing to the dried fruit on the table with a smile on his face, he said, "Old lady, these high-quality dried fruits are sent by Brother Shi Xian.

Moreover, Brother Shi Xian also took out all the spices given by his friends without any secrets.

When Xue Pan and Feng Ziying, Xue Pan and Feng Ziying were drinking and talking about articles at Brother Shi Xian’s house yesterday, they who were waiting for Xing Er, just smelling the smell of spices made their mouths water all night.

If the old lady wants to see it, I will order someone to prepare it. "

Jia Lian's selfishness was hidden in his words, he only talked about spices and not recipes, the purpose was nothing more than not wanting to make some by himself and earn some extra money.

After saying this, thinking of Jia Lian whose spices were a bit spicy, he hurriedly added, "However, Brother Shi's spices are very good.

But one bad thing is that this kind of spice has a spicy taste, people who like it like it very much, but those who don't like it really can't stand the spicy taste. "

Jia Mu didn't care about this at all, what she thought was why someone sent spices to Shi Zhongkui.

When Mrs. Wang heard the recipe of the spices, she told Jia Lian in a heartbeat, "Lien'er, you can go to Shi's house tomorrow and ask, and buy more if you have any.

In case there are guests who come to the house and talk about this spice, the family is not well prepared and loses its dignity. "

"Ma'am, this is really difficult for my nephew."

Jia Lian realized that Mrs. Wang's aim was not the so-called decency, and she pretended to be helpless and shook her head, "It's not because my nephew is unwilling to contribute, but because they are scholars who are not ashamed to talk about money. If they ask too much, they will offend them."

When Jia Mu and others heard this, they knew that Jia Lian was right.

Seeing that Jia's mother was silent, Jia Lian quickly changed the subject and said, "The reason Shi Xiandi can have this kind of spice is because after the government examination, a boy student whose ancestors lived in Wannian County in Chang'an came to ask for advice.

The two hit it off immediately, Shi Xiandi was even willing to let the other party copy the notes and experiences he had left from his studies.

The other party was grateful, so he gave Shi Xiandi this spice from the Western Regions. "

Hearing that it was given by someone else, Mrs. Jia Muwang and the others immediately extinguished their small thoughts.

But Jia Zheng thought, if Jia Baoyu and Jia Lan followed suit, would they also be able to pass the exam?
Thinking of this, Jia Zheng stood up and said to Jia's mother, "Mother, do you think Baoyu and Lan'er should carry important gifts, behave like disciples, and study with Shi Boqian?"

Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up, but Jia Amnesty simply took the opportunity to stand up and said, "Old lady, I am preparing for the hospital examination in early August and the rural examination at the end of August.

How could it be possible to teach Baoyu and Lan'er to read?

Moreover, Baoyu and Shi Zhongkui are of the same age, how can they behave like disciples?

For the sake of the two children, it would be better to recruit Shi Boqian as his son-in-law. "

Jia's mother had already guessed Jia She's thoughts, knowing that he didn't want Shi Zhongkui and Gao Baoyu to become Yingchun's uncle.

And now that there are so many benefits in recruiting Shi Zhongkui as his grandson-in-law, he couldn't help but start to get excited.

Jia Lian probably came because of Xia Shouzhong, so he didn't have to worry about taking responsibility.

He also thought of having a famous scholar as his brother-in-law, not only would he have a bright face, but he could also take the opportunity to get the way to buy spices from the Western Regions through Shi Zhongkui.

Famous and profitable, how could Jia Lian give up such a good thing.

Busy also stood up and said, "Old lady, Boqian is so talented, there shouldn't be any problem with fame.

And Boqian is just 20 years old this year, and Yingchun girl is also 15, and she will just marry in a year or two.

But if it is really necessary to wait for Bo Qian's virtuous brother to be a scholar and a juren, more people will definitely want to recruit him as a son-in-law.

Even the elders in Shan Guogong's mansion and Boqian's master's school may have already thought about it. "

Jia Mu suddenly became emotional.
