Chapter 35 Farmhouse Imperial Examination 1
Jia Huan ignored Xue Pan and continued to sleep on the table.
Although Jia Rui's speech was pretty good, it sounded far behind to Jia Huan.
There is no need to listen at all.
He already knew this knowledge.
He learned them all in the life when he was the son of Thirteenth Brother.
The Four Books and Five Classics are compulsory subjects, and the masters who teach these subjects are all great Confucians of the time, and their lectures are not mechanical like those of Jia Dairu and Jia Rui.
Their lectures were very interesting, and Jia Huan listened to what they taught even if he wanted to eat fish.
As a result, he became completely familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics. Now even if he takes part in the imperial examination, he can go from scholar to Jinshi.
However, as the Third Master Huan of Rongguo Mansion, it is impossible for him to take the scientific examination.
Jia Zheng will definitely support him to take the science and technology exam, but if he really takes the exam, I'm afraid Aunt Zhao's life will be lost.
Jia Huan yawned lazily, closed his eyes and fell into sleep.
…
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The cry kept reaching Jia Huan's ears, waking him up from his sleep.
Jia Huan got up, climbed down from the kang, walked out of the house, and came to the yard.
In the yard, a young woman in commoner clothes and a hairpin was crying her heart out. Two children, two or three years older than Jia Huan, were standing next to the woman, their faces full of fear.
Jia Huan's grandparents and parents looked very ugly. His father, Jia Dacheng, held a hoe in his hand and yelled, "It's too much!" and wanted to run out, but his mother, Zhang, hugged her waist tightly and dragged him away.
Let him go.
The eldest brother Jia Lang stood aside and didn't know what to think, while the eldest sister Jia Rui was comforting the two children with a warm voice.
Jia Huan recognized the woman as her aunt Jia Chunying in this life, who was married to a scholar from the next village.
The two children are Jia Chunying's children, named Chu Jingyi and Chu Yurou respectively. They are a pair of twins.
When the two were born, they were praised as auspicious by the four villages and towns, and many people came to the Chu family to see them and get good luck.
Therefore, the Chu family attaches great importance to these two children.
Now, they let Jia Chunying take her two children back to her parents' home. Something big must have happened.
Grandfather Jia Dashi stopped Jia Dacheng: "Are you looking for death? That man is now a serious official. If you hurt him, you will definitely be thrown into prison, and you may not be able to save your life. When the time comes, you and I will
Mom, what should I do with your wife and your three children?"
Jia Dacheng: "Is it true that my sister was bullied by the Chu family and divorced by them to return to her parents' home?"
Jia Dashi: "Then what can we do? That boy Chu Wenyao is already an official, but we are just ordinary people and can't fight him. Moreover, the wife he wants to marry is said to be a young lady from a high-ranking official's family, so we are even more...
You can't fight against it. You have to suffer this loss if you don't want to."
When Jia Dacheng heard this, he put down his hoe unwillingly and was extremely dejected.
Jia Huan understood roughly.
His aunt Jia Chunying met Chen Shimei.
His good uncle, uh, is now his ex-uncle.
The former uncle was admitted to Jinshi and was favored by a senior official who wanted to marry his daughter to the former uncle.
It is impossible for the daughter of a high-ranking official to be a concubine, and she does not want to be a cheap wife. Therefore, for the sake of his future, his ex-uncle cruelly divorced his wife, and even more cruelly abandoned his son and daughter.
Should we be glad that he is not as ruthless as Chen Shimei? Should he still want to kill people and silence them?
The Jia family are ordinary farmers. Even if they are a little wealthier than others, they cannot compete with the Chu family who have been promoted to official families.
They have no choice but to suffer this loss.
When Jia Chunying cried and had no strength to cry anymore, Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Zhang helped her into the house.
This is the house where Jia Chunying lived before she got married. Mrs. Zhang has simply packed it out for Jia Chunying, mother and son to live in.
Jia Rui, one by one, pulled Chu Jingyi and Chu Yurou, and followed the three of them into the house.
Jia Dashi squatted on the ground in silence and smoked a dry cigarette. Jia Dacheng sat aside, with anger and unwillingness on his face that did not dissipate.
At this time, Jia Lang spoke: "Grandpa, Dad, I want to go to school to study."
The two adults looked up at the six-year-old boy.
With a mature expression like an adult on his face, the little boy said: "Grandpa, Dad, I also want to take the imperial examination. When I become a high official, I will be qualified to challenge the Chu family and avenge my aunt."
Jia Dashi and Jia Dacheng were stunned at first by the child's remarks, but then Jia Dacheng slapped his thigh: "Okay, daddy will send you to school. Dad will wait for you to become an official to avenge your aunt!"
Jia Dashi stood up, walked to Jia Lang, touched Jia Lang's head, and said, "Grandpa will take you to find Master Chen tomorrow."
Master Chen was the only scholar in the village and a scholar. He opened a private school to teach children to read. However, few people in the village sent their children to study.
Of course, Master Chen did not make a living by teaching people to read.
His family owns thirty acres of fertile land, which he rents to others for farming. The daily rent collected is enough for his family to live on.
Jia Lang's goal was achieved, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Jia Huan saw all this.
He knew that this brother would definitely do something.
really!
Jia Huan knew the details of his brother.
Jia Lang, like Jia Xueyi he met in his previous life, were both reborn through time travel and came from the modern world.
Unlike Jia Huan, Jia Lang, who encountered such a good thing as time travel for the first time, had great ambitions and wanted to make some achievements. Like the time traveler in the novel, he would reach the top of his life, surrounded by beautiful women and have a successful career.
However, this time traveler should be a liberal arts student and knows that cement glass soap is a must-have for time travellers to make a fortune, but he does not know how to make these things.
Over the years, Jia Lang has never thought of a way to make himself rich.
Today's experience made him see that studying for the imperial examination was the most important way to get ahead, so he made up his mind.
I want to study, I want to take scientific examinations, I want to be an official!
Jia Lang is not afraid of reading. He majored in literature in his previous life and is confident that learning ancient knowledge will not be as difficult as science students.
And with his previous life experience, he believed that he would have more advantages in taking the scientific examination.
Jia Huan yawned and walked back to the room. His little short hands and little legs joined forces, climbed onto the kang, and continued to sleep.
He is a salty fish!
Don’t look for him when you’re studying or something!
The next day, Jia Dashi took a chicken, a knife of meat and a tael of silver, and took his eldest grandson and grandson to Master Chen's private school.
The grandson and the eldest grandson are the same age, so you can't send the eldest grandson to study without sending the grandson, right?
What would your grandson think about being treated so differently?
Having just been abandoned by his father's family and treated as an outsider by his grandfather's family, this child will definitely be sad!
