Volume B, Morning Dew and Sunset, Chapter 41, Xue Family, Jia Family (3-in-1 10,000-word update!)

 From the way home, Yun Shang felt that the young master was a little absent-minded and listless while riding. It seemed that the rich and exciting experience of the Dahuguo Temple had exhausted the young master's energy and made the young master feel a little weak.

.

It wasn't until after lunch that Feng Ziying slowly regained her composure.

There were really too many things that happened this morning. It was nice to be able to act on the spot, but there would be more follow-up things.

You have to go back and report to the mountain chief and the commander-in-chief that you have made a "decision on the spot" or that you have overstepped your authority.

It was originally just an invitation to give lectures, but suddenly it was upgraded to a discussion and exchange between the North and South academies, and even vaguely a level of competition. Even Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen did not dare to settle down easily.

It's just that Yang Sichang can't wait to report back to Chongzheng Academy, and the Vineyard Debate that many people may not understand in the morning will probably start to spread in the capital in the afternoon. This kind of thing is the most popular in the capital.

The preferences of a bunch of idle citizens in the city will probably become the best topic of conversation for many people after dinner in the evening.

But for myself, there is no loss, or even only gain.

People with low starting points take advantage of this. No matter how noisy their trip to Shandong is, everyone at most thinks that they are brave. Going to Qingtan Academy to study will only attract the attention of some scholars. I guess

Most people think that this is just a reward from Qiao Yingjia, so that he can earn a good reputation as a good scholar.

But after this morning's operation in the vineyard, it is estimated that no one will simply regard him as a somewhat courageous martial arts disciple anymore.

Being able to get a tie or even the upper hand in the debate with Yang Wenruo and the Hou brothers, no matter what topic is discussed or debated, is a step to establish his status among the scholars in the North.

This step can be called marble, or even made of flower stone.

I don't know if reaching such a high level at this time will be good or bad for his next development. Feng Ziying is really a little unsure now, but at this point he has no choice but to bite the bullet and move forward.

Xue Jun finally entered Beijing.

I sent the post and Feng Tang met with me and discussed it.

But the negotiation probably didn't go well. Feng Ziying probably thought that Xue Jun was not satisfied with her father's "talent" in making a living, so she never came to visit him again.

However, Xue Jun left behind information about his residence in Beijing, probably waiting for his visit.

To be honest, Feng Ziying is not very optimistic about her father's business skills. Looking at some of his businesses in Jingzhong and Datong, they are basically outputs that appear to be guaranteed by droughts and floods, but in fact have extremely low returns.

According to modern asset allocation rules, a family's asset allocation should be classified according to high, medium and low risk and return. Allocating a certain proportion is the best wealth combination. However, the Feng family obviously directly follows the low risk and low return category.

, or it is a high-risk, high-yield business that Feng Ziying herself is still not clear about, such as what Yunshang said her cousin and Uncle You went to make a living outside the Great Wall.

Although times are different, Feng Ziying feels that this kind of thinking should not change much, unless you can rely on the power in your hands to pursue low-risk and high-yield businesses, but this kind of business often involves greater risks, but it is not.

It will just show up within a certain period of time.

Even if you make a living like being an emperor, it may still be a high-risk and high-yield industry. It depends on how you operate it.

"Sit down, Ziying, if you don't come, I'm really going to go back to Jinling." Seeing Feng Ziying come to the door, Xue Jun was very happy and invited Feng Ziying into the room to sit down.

The impression seems to be that the Xue family came to Beijing within the past year or two, but now it seems that at least Xue Jun did not buy a mansion in the capital, and the small courtyard where Xue Jun lived was probably rented temporarily.

Xue Jun was wearing a purple casual robe, and the jade ring between his fingers looked like some old antiques. Although his brows were a little gloomy, he was in good spirits.

Feng Ziying couldn't tell what the relationship between Xue Jun's room and his brother's room was, but judging from the description in the book, the relationship between the two rooms in the Xue family should be very ordinary. It was impossible to see the relationship between Xue Baochai and Xue Baoqin.

What a close relationship there is, not even as close as the relationship between Xue Baochai and several sisters of the Jia family.

"Uncle should know that my nephew has gone to the academy to study. Because he has only been there for a month, it is not easy for him to ask for leave. He will take a day off and come back." Feng Ziying smiled and held the tea cup with both hands and took a sip, "

My uncle has been staying in Shandong for a long time, right? How is the situation there? "

"Well, Uncle Yu spent more than ten days in Linqing, Dongchangfu, and Dezhou respectively, and then returned to Jining, so after more than a month of going back and forth, it took less than ten days to arrive in Beijing.

"

We seize this opportunity to sell cargo, and the canal is almost full with the canals heading north."

Feng Ziying was stunned and then burst into laughter. The tax supervisory matter has not yet been restored, but Feng Ziying knows that it will definitely be restored. No one can stop the emperor's determination, unless a way can be found to make up for the gap in the pay gap of the nine-sided army, but there is obviously no such way now.

.

However, Feng Ziying estimated that although the tax supervisors would be restored, the emperor might make some adjustments in the number of tax supervisors assigned to the lower levels.

Shandong's status is not as good as other places. If such a flag is raised again, I'm afraid we may not have such good luck.

Once the water transportation was interrupted and Shandong was destroyed, it would be an unbearable burden for the Zhou Dynasty.

The overthrow of the Ming Dynasty by the Zhou Dynasty was largely due to the chaos in Shandong, which led to the irreversible situation in the entire northern region. This lesson is profound.

"Uncle, the tax supervisor will definitely be reinstated. No one can change this situation." Feng Ziying poured cold water on Xue Jun with certainty.

Xue Jun was obviously aware of this. He gently twisted the jade ring with his fingers, but his eyes seemed to be thinking about something: "Xiannephew, do you think the situation in Shandong will evolve into the same state as before?"

"My uncle must have known about it. That's unlikely. The court, well, the emperor will definitely consider it. In fact, the amount actually taken back to the emperor to support the nine-border military pay is probably less than one-tenth. The Chang

My father-in-law has behaved so evilly, and the results will probably come out soon."

Feng Ziying's words finally made Xue Jun feel relieved and nodded: "My nephew may also know what Uncle Yu is thinking, but I went to visit your father a few days ago, and it seems..."

"My father is not very familiar with this kind of business, and he may soon resume his overseas duties, so my nephew is still responsible for this matter." Feng Ziying responded calmly.

Xue Jun nodded with satisfaction. If he really cooperated with Feng Tang, Xue Jun would be worried.

Although Feng Ziying is young, Xue Jun feels that she is more calm and sophisticated than those who have been in this business for many years, and her insights into these businesses are also quite insightful.

"Then Uncle Yu opened the sky and spoke frankly. Uncle Yu intends to cooperate with you and open two jewelry shops in Dongchang Mansion and Linqing Zhoucheng. They will still use the Fengrunxiang brand. In addition, they can also rely on Fengrunxiang to open a pawn shop.

,..." Xue Jun said while observing the changes in Feng Ziying's facial expressions.

As he expected, when he mentioned the pawn shop, the other party frowned, obviously not agreeing with the idea of ​​opening a pawn shop, which made Xue Jun feel relieved.

This shows that this son does not want to get involved in these professions that easily breed disputes, and it also shows that this son is probably serious about studying at Qingtan Academy.

If they were really hanging out in the Imperial College, then there would be no need to care about the pawn business. Everyone knew that this business was highly profitable, so many noble military generals were willing to run this kind of business, but Feng Ziying was not willing, which shows that this son cherished his own feathers.

This is a good thing, and it also allows the Xue family to cooperate with them.

"Uncle, my nephew thinks it is more appropriate to focus on the jewelry store now." Feng Ziying put forward her own opinion, "Originally, my idea was to open a store in Dongchang Mansion or Linqing Prefecture City as a trial, but if uncle

It’s okay to think that if you have sufficient manpower, you can open two at the same time. After all, opening two at the same time will also help to enhance the confidence of the guests..."

Xue Jun nodded slightly.

He also considered this. The Xue family was not familiar with the place in Shandong. Even though Fengrunxiang had some reputation, it was still in Jiangnan, not Shandong, so he wanted to create a large-scale reputation as much as possible, which would also make it easier to attract guests and reassure them.

"Nephew, you mean pawn..." Xue Jun still respected Feng Ziying's opinion. At this time, he did not regard Feng Ziying as a thirteen-year-old boy at all.

"We won't open it for the time being. Let's focus on running the jewelry store first and build up the reputation of Fengrunxiang." Feng Ziying was very determined. "The market in Shandong is not small, and the area along the canal is the richest. Even though it is not as good as Jiangnan, it is definitely

It is considered a fertile land in the North. Fengrunxiang has a famous brand and craftsmanship, but what it lacks is personal connections and credibility. On this point, the Feng family can endorse Fengrunxiang!"

Straight to the point, straight to the point, it’s that direct.

Since it's a business cooperation, there's no need to be secretive. Everyone gets what they need and does what they can. It's that simple.

What resources the Feng family can provide, and what assets the Xue family can bring to the table, if an agreement can be reached, the rest is the specific operation.

Xue Jun also admired Feng Ziying's frankness. The more it was like this, it meant that the other party had carefully considered and prepared. That kind of mysterious method was meaningless in front of a sophisticated person like him.

"That being the case, does the wise nephew have any strategies?" These few words alone were not enough. Xue Jun also wanted to hear what Feng Ziying had to say.

This jewelry business is a long-term livelihood. Once a cooperation is confirmed, if they separate in the future, it will hurt both sides. Therefore, Xue Jun must strive to be safe. Otherwise, he will not spend more than a month to inspect the market.

Feng Ziying naturally knew that businessmen like Xue Jun would not recognize herself so easily. There was a process for this.

And to be honest, I have more confidence. After all, the manpower, experience and skills are all in the hands of the other party. Even if I don't cooperate with the Feng family, I can definitely find cooperation with other famous families in Shandong.

No one will feel bad about Yinzi. Even if those famous families have to worry about their reputation, they can still cooperate through some invisible channels and they can still cooperate happily.

"Uncle, I do have some considerations. You may also have learned something. The Feng family is still reasonable in Linqing, but the connections in Dongchang Mansion need to be worked hard to stabilize." Feng Ziying said frankly.

This is also consistent with Xue Jun's understanding of the situation. Feng Ziying's frankness still surprised him.

"But now there is an opportunity. The new governor of Dongchang Prefecture, Shen Jue, admires my nephew very much, and he is also good with Qiao Gong. They are in the same class. My nephew plans to visit Linqing and Dongchang Prefecture next spring.

, I already said hello to Uncle Shen this morning,..."

Half true and half false, but generally true.

Xue Jun was overjoyed by the news about Feng Ziying.

Linqing Prefecture is a prefecture under Dongchang Prefecture. Although Linqing Prefecture is relatively special due to its geographical location, in terms of administrative power, it is undoubtedly under the jurisdiction of Dongchang Prefecture.

The magistrate of the Po Family County and the Ling Yin of the Exterminated Family are really not joking. Under the jurisdiction of Dongchang Prefecture, as long as the prefect of the prefecture is not too stupid, he is almost a decisive figure.

"My nephew's idea is that Linqing can be set up first. My nephew will ask my father to arrange for people to arrange things with Zhang Zhizhou of Linqing Prefecture first, including the three major families of Linqing, as well as local merchant families such as the Tao family and the Xi family.

The Shanshan Guild Hall will be connected first. As for the Dongchang Mansion, preparations can be made first. After my nephew Dongchang and his party arrive in the spring of next year, they will start a big campaign..."

Xue Jun thought briefly and agreed to Feng Ziying's suggestion.

The preparation itself cannot be done in three or five days. It involves renting and purchasing stores, arranging employees, and more importantly, taking the initiative to contact relevant customer groups. These are all very delicate and tedious tasks that cannot be done in a short time.

A little bit of negligence.

To do these things, we must do our best and be meticulous. This is also the key to establishing a brand first.

The two of them discussed some more specific matters such as this, which made Xue Jun feel more and more mysterious about this young man with shallow eyes.

How can this little guy know so much about the details of business at such an age?

It would be fine if this guy really came from a merchant family. A descendant of Wu Xun, and he is still studying hard at the famous Qingtan Academy, and he still has the mind to think about these things, which can't help but shock people.

Fortunately, this is his collaborator. Maybe some people are born geniuses and can master everything. Xue Jun can only explain it to comfort himself in this way.

After talking about the main business, it was natural to talk about our respective situations.

Xue Jun also talked about the current situation of the Xue family.

"My sister-in-law is from a womanly family. When my brother was still there, she could still manage to maintain it. But since my brother passed away, Uncle Yu's nephew has become a little out of control and is unruly... Fortunately, my niece can't.

She is also sensible and can help my sister-in-law take care of some things at home..."

That was Xue Baochai. Feng Ziying didn't have the nerve to ask that Xue Baochai's age. Calculating it, he should be about the same age as himself, so the useless nephew was naturally Xue Pan.

The conversation ended with sighs.

The next step is to discuss the specific cooperation matters. Xue Jun also has manpower here. He has already sent a letter to recruit people from the south. It depends on who will be responsible for Feng Ziying.

"You made your own decision on such a big matter? You didn't even discuss it with us?" Sitting in the chair, Feng Tang looked at Feng Ziying with a complicated expression. There were Duan and Xiao Duan next to him.

"Dad, how long can you stay in Beijing?" Feng Ziying did not answer and asked the core directly.

Stiffed, Feng Tang didn't feel much embarrassment, "It's hard to say now, I guess it will be after the new year, but..."

"Dad, since you don't have much energy to ask about this matter, do you and your mother-in-law feel that there are any omissions in the situations I introduced earlier?" Feng Ziying was very calm, sitting up straight and holding her hands on her hands.

On the armrest of the official hat chair.

Feng Tang and Duan exchanged glances, and finally sighed and shook their heads: "Brother Keng, you did a good job, but I think that since you have made up your mind to participate in Qiuwei the year after next, you shouldn't

If you are distracted by these things, your family still has some financial resources, so it’s not like..."

"Father, mother, aunt, if you don't have long-term worries, you will have immediate worries. The Feng family is not a small family. In the morning, my son met Mr. Shen who was about to be appointed as the governor of Dongchang Prefecture at Dahuguo Temple. He also asked about our Feng family.

The son was almost speechless due to the situation. The Feng family, as one of the three Linqing families, had a tendency to become empty-handed. This would not work. The northern branch of the Feng family, which the son and his family had mentioned before, needed to take measures to revitalize it. It was not just a whim.

Let’s start now,…”

"Uncle You can go ahead and take a stand. If possible, my son suggested that dad take advantage of the period before and after New Year to go back to Linqing. The Zhou family and the Ren family will naturally have to move around. The Zhou family has people in the capital and Nanjing.

Officials, this relationship needs to be maintained, or even closer. The Ren family has many connections in Dongchang Mansion, so it must be maintained; both the state and Dongchang Mansion have to visit and arrange suitable people first.

The ancestral home must be expanded and repaired, and the clan school must be built as soon as possible..."

Calm but unquestionable, this is how Feng Ziying's attitude gave Feng Tang at this time.

Not confused, but still feeling a little strange.

After such a long time, he had gradually adapted to his son's huge changes.

But today's attitude was different. He wanted to take over the entire Feng family, which made him feel a little uncomfortable again.

"Brother Keng, uh, you have to study, these things..." Feng Tang glanced at Mr. Duan, who was also a little confused, and smiled bitterly.

It seems that my wife can't accept it. Even if it's the flesh that fell off her body and the legitimate son, this... is it too inappropriate for your age?

"Dad, my son didn't say that he wanted to go and inquire about these matters in person. In fact, my son and his uncle Xue family have just discussed it. There is still a process. If my cousin can spare time, he can participate in it. Such a big business

, maybe the future will be the foundation of our Feng family in Shandong."

Feng Ziying naturally understands the thoughts of her father and mother. In their view, since she has made up her mind to study, she should not be distracted. Being able to read books is naturally a blessing. This is the foundation for the development of the Feng family in the future. It is far better than

Make a living in this kind of business.

Of course Feng Ziying also understands this truth, but he will not underestimate the huge support ability of a stable livelihood for a family, especially now that the northern branch of the Feng family can be said to be in decline, if you don't cultivate more people, including those who can do scientific examinations,

With talented people coming out, how can your Feng family prosper?

Feng Ziying is not so naive to just place her hopes on those so-called like-minded people in the academy, examination hall or future officialdom.

His past life experience made him very clear that many persistences would collapse under the temptation of huge profits, so he would never put his eggs in one basket, and the Feng family's ability to maintain it was indispensable.

In this era, people in officialdom can betray their beliefs, ignore friendships, and even downplay and ignore the Three Tongs, but there are really not many people who betray their family.

Because this is a major plan related to his descendants, if it is not forced to change the world, it can be said that there is really not much that can defeat the power of this bloodline clan.

Feng Tang sighed deeply. Doesn't his son's being too capable also put pressure on himself as a father?

He felt more and more that he should get up early, so as not to be idle at home and see his son causing trouble all day long, which made him feel ashamed.

"Madam, Brother Keng has already made a plan. How about letting Xigui take over first? I think this can still be done." Feng Tang could only choose to support it, because there was no reason not to support it.

The only way to make money is to have some connections within your own family. A trip to Shandong is a good way to relax your muscles and muscles, so as not to stay in Beijing all the time. As Brother Keng said, the Feng family cannot decline in his hands.

With the right time, right place, and right people, there is no reason why the Feng family should not prosper.

Mrs. Duan was even more entangled, thinking about considering the Jia family's marriage for her son. Now that her son has such ideas, even her husband can only obey, can he listen to her?

She felt increasingly unsure.

But again, everything else can be compromised, but she must make the decision in this matter of marriage.

This is related to the continuation of the Feng family's incense.

"Brother Keng, since your father has agreed, my mother will not stop you. If you have no idea, then let Xigui go and handle it with the Xue family. Well, Master, what Brother Keng said is right. Feng

With such a large family in Linqing, we can always find a few people who can do things. If you want to go there, you might as well choose one. I don’t want the Feng family to poke my spine in the future.

He said that I would only use members of our Duan family as my concubine..."

Feng Ziying finally breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and saluted, "Thank you, dad, mom, and aunt."

He knew that the problem in this matter was not with his father. Sooner or later, his father would have to go back to work. My mother was in charge of the family affairs, so he was afraid that she would not agree. Now that my mother had agreed, he felt relieved.

"However, brother Keng, you are also thirteen this year. Mom knows that you want to study, but she still has to talk about this marriage first. What if your father is going to be sent away in a year, and I don't know how many years he will be away.

So here we go, Mom will look for you first, and if you are suitable, then you will make a decision."

This was probably a condition of exchange. Feng Ziying looked bitter, but when she saw her mother's unkind expression and an unquestionable look on her face, she knew that this was not the time to argue.

But at least I want to ask for my own opinion. This is a good sign. Before, this was simply unimaginable.

"Mom, let's stop talking about this matter. My son doesn't have the heart to think about it now. If there is a suitable one, we might as well wait until the autumn of next year to talk about it." As soon as Feng Ziying said the words, he suddenly remembered the incident this morning in his mind.

The wind blows the beautiful face behind the gauze curtain that is either angry or happy.

****

When Feng Ziying walked towards Qingtan Academy in the western suburbs at dusk, the scene of "Three Heroes Fighting Lu Bu" in the Dahuguo Temple in the morning, and then evolved into "Judging Heroes by Arms", had already been spread by some thoughtful people intentionally or unintentionally

Next, it began to spread among specific groups of people inside and outside the capital city.

The ones that Feng Ziying promoted the most were naturally those Imperial College students.

In the past few years, the reputation of Imperial College students in the Great Zhou Dynasty has been bad. Most of the imperial concubines now do not go to Beijing to study, but study directly in local academies.

Even in the great competition of Chinese style in autumn and spring, these people rarely mentioned that they were students of the Imperial College, which made the status of the Imperial College even more embarrassing.

Of course, for many people who have failed in school and want to become officials, this is still a path.

It's just that since you are taking this road to seek an official position, don't worry about your reputation. Compared with the imperial examination or even the real Jinshi, you must be a scumbag. You are a person with your tail between your legs, and you are just a miscellaneous official.

Just eat.

However, everyone cares about appearance. Imperial College students are also "students", aren't they? They also wear Confucian shirts and swing folding fans. They are considered scholars, and they can also have an official status. Even though they are inferior to others, they still have to pay attention to appearance, and

Most of these people have some connections and family assets, or in other words, some connections.

Feng Ziying frankly stated in front of everyone that she was the imperial eunuch, and also the eunuch, and she did not shy away from stating the reasons for the eunuch system of the imperial court. This made the eunuchs feel extremely happy.

I have always been discriminated against wherever I go. This time, the supervisor finally felt proud and proud.

A supervisor, well, of course they selectively forgot that this supervisor had gone to Qingtan Academy to study. A supervisor and one of the three most famous talents in the capital, Yang Sichang, the leader of Chongzheng Academy, and the Hou brothers, were in Dahu.

They argued eloquently in the temple and did not fall behind in the slightest.

In the end, it was possible for those guys from Chongzheng Academy who usually didn't pay much attention to the Imperial College students to shake hands and make peace with one of the Imperial College students, or even hold hands and talk to each other. What a glorious thing it was!

When Jia Zheng got the news, he came home and chatted with the guests in the mansion. He didn't know until Fu Shi came to visit.

Jia Zheng's treatment of Fu Shi was naturally different, and he did not avoid Fu Shi even when chatting with the guests at home.

"You mean that the elder of the Feng family argued weakly with Yang Wen for half an hour in the Dahuguo Temple?"

Jia Zheng had also heard of Yang Sichang and Yang Wenruo, the chief talent of Chongzheng Academy. He was only seventeen years old, but he had already booked a seat in the Three Tripods of Chunwei in Xia Ke. No matter how unlucky he was, he would be among the Shujishi, and

His father was also the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and was a backbone figure among the civil servants of the imperial court.

"Yes, it is said that there are Hou brothers." Fu Shi raised the teacup and took a sip rather reservedly. The whiskers on his lips were combed particularly neatly, and then he put it down and said, "Is Cun Zhougong aware of the Hou brothers, right? The Ministry of Rites

Yuanwailang Hou Bitang's two sons, one is fifteen years old and the other is thirteen years old. The elder brother Hou Xun has passed the provincial examination last year and has not performed well in Chunwei this spring. It is said that Chunwei is also determined to win the junior college, and his younger brother Hou Xun is even more impressive.

He also promised to win the first prize in the autumn of the next year and the spring of Xia Ke..."

Jia Zheng was greatly surprised. Thinking back to what his brother-in-law said a few days ago, he became increasingly uncomfortable, "Zitong, where did you learn about this? Why is it so bizarre?"

"Bizarre?" Fu Shi didn't come back to his senses and was stunned for a moment, "Cun Zhougong, dozens of people have seen this with their own eyes, so how can you say it's bizarre?"

Jia Zheng suppressed the irritability in his heart and said slowly: "Zitong, then the Feng family and our Jia family can be considered to be well connected. How come I don't know the situation of his family? Then Feng Tang is a martial artist at most.

Even if he can say a few words, I would believe it if the Feng family man was said to be somewhat brave and courageous, but to say how much literary talent he has and that he is a good reader would be a bit untrue. Taking a step back, even if he is a

I have the seeds of reading, but I have just been to Qingtan Academy for more than a month, and I am completely transformed? Isn’t Qiuwei and Chunwei opened for the Qingtan Academy family?"

Fu Shi has been following his master for some time. Although he can't talk about teaching and solving doubts, Jia Zheng still helped him a lot. A scholar could actually be a miscellaneous official in Shuntian Mansion. If it weren't for the Jia family

The background is absolutely impossible.

He also heard that Jia Zheng was in a bad mood, but he didn't know why Duke Zhou was so unhappy since the Feng family was close to the Jia family.

However, he was also a clever person. When he saw that the few Qing guests around him were silent, he immediately came back to his senses. He was afraid that Duke Cun Zhou might have thought of his own jade, so the comparison would be harmful, and he would feel unhappy.

Smiling, Fu Shi said disapprovingly: "Cun Zhougong, I heard that the Feng family's elder man is quite quick-witted, but his knowledge of classics and meaning is shallow. Arguing with Yang Wenruo may not necessarily show how good a literary talent he is.

It’s just a matter of words.”

"Yes, Brother Zitong is right. The Autumn and Spring Competitions are all based on the foundation of classics and principles to judge heroes. The second brother is extremely talented. Given time, he will surely win the title of Toad Palace..."

Zhan Guang, the guest of Qing Dynasty, also came with his mouth open. Although Fu Shi also intended to flatter him, if he was asked to say that Jia Baoyu could win the laurels in the toad palace without conscience and bottom line, it would be a bit hard to say.

After all, Jia Zheng wanted to save some face. Hearing his Qingke praise his son like this, he quickly waved his hands.

"That bad boy is not a material for studying, and he was born in vain. But as the Jia family is a hairpin family, it has to have some dignity, so I also intend to hire a private school teacher with some knowledge in classics and meaning to give him a good lesson.

, If we can make some progress in the future, we will be worthy of the ancestors of the Jia family."

The news brought by Fu Shi indeed greatly stimulated Jia Zheng.

His brother-in-law's words still lingered in his ears. He had not yet found a suitable opportunity to report back to his mother about letting Baoyu go to school, but he was determined to resolve the matter.

This time, studying can no longer be like the current three days of fishing and two days of drying nets. The teacher also follows his temper to study and leave when he wants. Rather than doing this, it is better not to study.

Thinking of what Baoyu would be like in the future if he didn't study, whether he would spend his whole life hanging around in a pile of makeup and powder like Brother Rong from Dongfu, Jia Zheng couldn't help but strengthen his determination. Even if his mother was displeased, this matter would definitely happen.

To do.

Then thinking about the marriage of the three girls mentioned by his brother-in-law from the Feng family's elder man, Jia Zheng couldn't help but feel a little entangled again.

If the Feng family man is really that capable, then he might as well think about it. However, my wife asked about it when she came back from her parents' house the day before yesterday, and she seemed to think it was quite good.

**********

"Sister, what are you talking about? The eldest brother of the Feng family and Yang Wenruo defended the Great Huguo Temple?" Jia Baoyu's big face turned red, and his eyes showed a look of disbelief, "How is it possible? Then Yang Wenruo is

Many people say that he is descended from Wenquxing. I don’t believe this, but he must have some ability. How can He De, the eldest brother of the Feng family..."

Before the words left her mouth, she saw Sister Lin's face suddenly darkening. She was shocked in her heart and quickly said, "No, I mean, Brother Feng has only been to Qingtan Academy for a few days. How can he be so talkative with Yang Wen?"

Arguing? If there is no enmity between the two of them, how can they come together..."

"Believe it or not, my little sister didn't see this alone. The third sister also saw it with her own eyes. Besides, there were dozens of people around, many of whom were academy students in the capital city. How could they still recognize it?

Not as good as Yang Wenruo?"

Lin Daiyu shrugged her nose contemptuously, but turned her face to one side.

She doesn't want to argue with the other party about this matter at all. It's pointless. It doesn't matter whether it's happening or not. What does it have to do with you, Mr. Bao?

Could it be that because Brother Feng is so capable, you are ready to work hard to get stronger? She didn't believe it at all.

Jia Baoyu stood aside in confusion, not knowing what to do, her face turning red and white.

He didn't understand, why did Sister Lin think that everything about the Feng family man was really right?

No matter what he said, he was wrong. The expression and gesture of caring whether he believed or not, really made him feel uncomfortable and made him feel flustered.

How had Jia Baoyu ever suffered such grievances in this Jia Mansion?

I was about to have an attack, but I couldn't find a suitable reason. Secondly, I was really worried about what I would do if Sister Lin ignored me even more after the attack.

Seeing Sister Lin's casual words made the second brother upset, and he blushed and wanted to explain. However, Sister Lin's indifferent attitude of doing whatever you say made the second brother even more angry.

"Second brother, we did happen to see this thing when we went to Dahuguo Temple today. It was not just Yang Wenruo, but also several others." Tan Chun could only explain patiently: "What are they arguing about?"

Sister Lin and I were so far apart that we couldn't hear clearly. It seemed that it was about the academy's lectures or something. Anyway, we had a fierce fight, but I don't know why we shook hands and made peace later..."

Seeing that the second brother's face was getting worse and worse, Tanchun had no choice.

If you want to pester Sister Lin, but you don’t want to say something that Sister Lin likes to hear, then that’s it. If you say yes to what Sister Lin says, won’t it be over?

You always have to contradict Sister Lin. With Sister Lin's arrogant temperament, how can she spoil you?

As for Brother Feng, just listen to it, why bother to argue with her? From her observation, Brother Feng really seems to treat Sister Lin as a little sister, and Brother Bao sometimes can't help it.

My mind is a little too small.

"Hmph, Brother Feng must be the one to provoke me. Yang Wenqiang is not as knowledgeable as him. In the end, he can't argue with me, so he has to admit defeat."

Jia Baoyu knew that saying this would only make Sister Lin angry again, but if he didn't say it out, he would feel so uncomfortable that he wouldn't be able to sleep well tonight.

"Brother Feng and I also had a drink. He has a good temper, but I really don't think there is anything special about his literary talent. So Yang Wenruo is so well-known in the capital city, how can he be in vain? People

I definitely don’t have the same experience as him,..."

Lin Daiyu immediately became angry, why is this second brother Bao so boring? Do you feel uncomfortable if you don't say a few words?

The willow eyebrows stood up, and he was about to have an attack, but thinking that this was the Jia family after all, Brother Feng also repeatedly reminded himself not to let his temper go, so he suppressed his anger and said lukewarmly: "That's right, Brother Feng just went to the academy.

, how can you defeat the famous Yang Wenruo? But I think that at least Brother Feng still has the courage to argue with Yang Wenruo, unlike some people who only play around at home..."

As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Tanchun knew that something was going to happen. He saw the big-faced man standing up with a roar, his eyes burning, and his chest rising and falling rapidly.

"I know that my sister looks down on me. Everyone in this family shows that they are good to me, but in fact, they all laugh at me behind my back. I myself also look down on myself. People in the house even say that I was born with a jade in my mouth. How can I be blessed?

What does this piece of jade mean to me? I simply don’t want this piece of jade, and everyone will be wiped out..."

He suddenly pulled off the piece of jade from his neck, his face flushed red, he walked a few steps into the hall where there was no carpet, he raised it high and was about to throw it down.

Lin Daiyu was also shocked. Brother Feng said that this second brother Bao liked throwing jade the most, so he had to guard against it. Why did he forget this incident today?

Tan Chun was also so frightened that his face turned pale, and he was in a hurry to grab the jade, but he heard the sound of Mingyan outside the hall suddenly: "Second Master, Second Master, it's not good, I asked you to come over immediately, your face is so ugly!"

Just like a goose who was about to sing a song was suddenly grabbed by the neck, his big face turned from red to white in an instant, and the hand that was holding the jade that was about to fall fell softly: "Do you know why?"

"Going back to the second master, I heard that the master was in a bad mood after Mr. Fu came back to talk about the debate in Dahuguo Temple today..."

There was a thud, and Jia Baoyu fell down on the chair next to the door as if she had lost her soul.
