Chapter 1254 Geng Zijuan’s brothers-in-law
Feng Ziying glanced at Baoyu. He wanted to make sure whether this guy was speaking sarcastically.
This Grand View Garden is full of girls. It’s enough for me to come and go frequently. If I stay here overnight, I’m afraid there will be obstacles. This guy is still living here. If I didn’t know that this guy’s character is quite acceptable. , he had to think of ways to drive this guy out.
But after taking one look at Baoyu's confused look, Feng Ziying knew that he was judging a gentleman with a villain's heart. This guy didn't think that far at all. As for Jia Huan, Jia Lan, and Jia Cong, they didn't even think about it. There was no response, probably because he felt that it was natural for him to live in the Grand View Garden, and he completely ignored the rules in this mansion that men were not allowed to enter the Grand View Garden without permission. The reason why he came in today was because of special circumstances on special days.
"Baoyu is right, but I'm afraid I won't have many opportunities to come here. I have to go back to Yongping Mansion at the beginning of the new year. I have been so busy that I rarely go back to the capital city in a year and a half. How can I have more? Is this where the opportunity comes from?" Feng Ziying shook her head with regret.
After this trip, the winter scenery of the Grand View Garden is still pleasing to the eye, but the scenery in spring, summer and autumn is even more pleasant. It is a pity that I can't experience it from time to time.
“Brother Feng, it would be great if you could return to the court.” Jia Huan was also quite emotional.
It is said that Brother Feng had a great chance to stay in the court, and even the six ministries were allowed to be chosen by him, but he insisted on being released from the capital. Moreover, he was not selected by high-ranking officials like Ningbo, Nanyang, and Baoding, but he was chosen. Although a mansion like Yongping Mansion is closer across the capital city, it still feels a bit wrong.
"Haha, brother Huan, it may not be good to be in the imperial court. But if you can really pass the imperial examination in the future, I suggest that you can train in the Sixth Ministry or the Metropolitan Inspectorate. But if you are serious, you have to do something. , I think it’s better for you to go to work in Xia Bian Prefecture and County for a few years. While you are still young, you can have a good feel and experience of the specific government affairs of Xia Bian Prefecture and County. Only when you enter the court in the future can you understand how the government affairs of Xia Bian Prefecture and County work. Prime Minister The saying "must start from the prefectures and counties" is not just a saying, it is the essence of what the predecessors have learned after thousands of efforts..."
Feng Ziying glanced at Jia Huan, who was still a little unconvinced, and then looked at Jia Lan and Jia Cong.
"Brother Lan, Brother Cong, you two are now following Zhou Jiaoyu to lay a solid foundation in classics and meaning first. You don't have to get in touch with current affairs too early. It won't be too late to gradually become familiar with current affairs after you have passed the scholar examination. Now I still need to focus on the meaning of the scriptures. Since Sister-in-law Zhu and Shibo have entrusted me with your teaching responsibility, I don’t have the energy to care about your studies for the time being, so I leave it to Zhou Jiaoyu and Zhou Jiaoyu. I benefited a lot from Zhou Jiaoyu's teachings on classics and meanings when I was in the academy. You two must work hard, but I heard that you two did not work the hardest, or in other words, you did not achieve the goals that Zhou Jiaoyu and I set. !”
Jia Lan and Jia Cong were shocked when the tone suddenly became serious. They quickly bowed their hands and stood aside to listen to the instruction.
"Brother Huan is a role model for you two. Passing the scholar exam is just the most basic first level. My request may be a little high, but I think you can achieve it. This is also the most basic thing for you as a master. If you can't even pass the examination as a scholar, you won't be worthy of mentioning my name, Feng Ziying, in the future, do you understand?"
When Feng Ziying said the last sentence, her voice and tone were already stern, while Jia Lan and Jia Cong also shuddered.
Baoyu on the side saw Feng Ziying tutoring Jia Lan and Jia Cong with her hands behind her back. Both of them were respectful and full of emotions in their hearts.
Jia Lan is just that, he is a relatively honest child, but Jia Cong is not a good boy. After spending a few days in the clan school, he gradually began to show a bit of a rebellious and cunning character, like Qin Zhong has suffered from this guy, so Baoyu especially dislikes this concubine brother, even more than Jia Huan.
Although Jia Huan has a sinister and extreme temperament, at least Jia Huan strives to make progress. The disrespect and backlash against him are not only due to the lack of etiquette, but also because the other person feels that he does not study and looks down on himself. But as Jia Huan has grown older, he has become more restrained in this regard, and even if he is still a little contemptuous, he can hide it.
But Jia Cong is very ruthless and full of dirty tricks at such a young age. Originally, Qin Zhong had been living a happy life in the clan school because of his care and Brother Rong's daughter-in-law, but Jia Cong went to the clan school. After that, he often played tricks on Qin Zhong, which made Qin Zhong come to him many times to complain. Later, he was afraid to go to the clan to study. Fortunately, Jia Cong became Feng Ziying's teacher, and now he teaches with Jia Lan in that week. I was told to study there instead of going to the clan to study. This is the end of the matter.
Jia Cong was cunning and unruly, but in front of Feng Ziying, he was as good as a kitten. Feng Ziying didn't even dare to express his anger when he lectured her. You must know that this guy was often indifferent to him, although He never contradicted her, but she was a bit distant and distant.
Hearing Feng Ziying's lecture to Jia Lan and Jia Cong, Jia Huan also felt a bit like a senior brother standing aside, especially when Feng Ziying mentioned that she was a role model for the two of them, and that passing the exam to be a scholar was only the minimum first step. Jia Huan also felt the pressure on his shoulders.
In the entire Jia family for decades, except for Mr. Jing from Dongfu who passed the Jinshi examination, there has never been a single person who has been elected as a Juren. If Jia Huan can pass the Jinshi examination, he will be the second and most worthy member of the Jia family. He is the leader of the current generation. As for Baoyu, just stay where it's cool. Who cares about him, a **** who just eats and waits for death?
So what if you can write a few legendary novels and gain some fame? Can it still be compared with being promoted to Jinshi?
“Disciple understands, I must live up to Master’s teachings and expectations, study hard, and never disgrace Master’s reputation.” Jia Lan and Jia Cong both cupped their hands and bowed deeply.
Feng Ziying nodded, "Well, don't blame me for being too harsh on you. There are not many young people in the Wuxun family who can study. To be honest, before I was a teacher, I was actually not willing to accept you two as disciples, but now that I have accepted you, Now, I will be responsible for you two, Sister-in-law Zhu and Uncle Shishi. When you two can really succeed in your studies in the future, you will understand the painstaking efforts of being a teacher. Only by enduring hardship can you be a good person. People should cultivate their virtues and forget about their reputations. If they study deeply, they should not pay too much attention to those false reputations. From studying to being an official to acting for others, life is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. You two must remember this."
The two of them quickly nodded in agreement.
"And Brother Huan,..." Jia Huan quickly stood up when he heard the mention of himself.
"Scholars are only the most basic. You also know that the scholars in Qingtan Academy are not worth mentioning at all, so next year's Autumn Palace Competition is the most critical. I don't ask you to achieve the Spring Palace next year in one go, but next year's Autumn Palace Competition But it is very important. I hope you will go all out and be able to win the Chinese style in next autumn's competition and set a good example for Brother Lang and Brother Cong. Do you have the confidence?"
Seeing Feng Ziying's eyes staring at him, Jia Huan felt that his blood was boiling all over his body. He subconsciously straightened his body, stood his legs together, cupped his hands and said loudly: "Brother Feng, don't worry, Jia Huan will definitely live up to Brother Feng's expectations." !”
Xiuyan and Miaoyu walked outside the Aojingxi Pavilion with Yuanyang.
The group was divided into several groups, Baochai, Baoqin, Sanchun and Xiangyun were in a group, and the maids were in a group. Li Wan and his two sisters were walking with Wang Xifeng, and saw Xiuyan and Miaoyu were alone. The considerate Yuanyang took the initiative to accompany the two of them to the front.
This group of people all came from the west. Baochai, Baoqin and their group stayed at the place where Baochai lived before her marriage in Hengwuyuan, while several maids were talking behind Jiayin Hall, and Li Wan, Wang Xifeng and the others went straight to the highest point of Tubi Villa.
It happened that Feng Ziying and his party were talking in the open space outside the Aojingxi Pavilion. There was a corner of the mountain peak that just blocked the front of the Aojingxi Pavilion. The three of them, Xiuyan, were in the middle, Miaoyu was on the right, and Yuanyang was holding Xiuyan. Yan's arm was walking this way while chatting.
Before they rounded the mountain peak, they heard Feng Ziying instructing Jia Lan and Jia Cong. The three of them also quickly stopped and listened close to the mountain peak.
Just hearing Feng Ziying's serious lectures to Jia Lan and Jia Cong, the words "Cultivation of virtue forgets reputation, study deeply" also touched the three women. All three women have read some books. With Feng Ziying's current reputation, It's really heartbreaking that he can treat fame and wealth so calmly and use it to educate the two of them.
Listening to Feng Ziying teaching and encouraging Jia Huan, Jia Huan's sonorous words also shocked the three women. If Jia Huan can really pass the exam, then the Jia family may really have some reputation among the martial arts families in the capital. Yes, but it will also bring some troubles, that is, this concubine will overwhelm the legitimate son Baoyu, and I am afraid that there will be a lot of troubles in Rongguo Mansion in the future.
With Jia Huan's sinister and extreme temperament, it is probably rare for anyone in the Rongguo Mansion to be able to subdue him. Fortunately, Feng Ziying is here, otherwise the two brothers may really have a fierce fight in the future.
Looking at Feng Ziying's graceful demeanor with her hands on her back and instructing several people through the shadow of the mountain, the second master Bao, who was originally as handsome as jade in the eyes of several girls, now looks extremely pale, thin and dim, and even a few Looks very rickety.
