Jia Lu through the Red Chamber

Chapter 138 The Academy

Sure enough, just like what Daiyu said, before he learned to walk, he was about to run away. A group of people made a fuss and made things worse. In the end, it was Li Momo who made the decision, and everyone else withdrew, leaving only Jia Lu and Nanny Li. , Moran, and Zijuan, who was familiar with books before, and a hard-working woman, Jia Lu said the idea, and Li Nanny took charge of it. .

At night, the detailed count is only a large box of books packed, Jia Lu lamented the heavy responsibilities and the long way to go!

When Jia Lu came back from work, she saw Daiyu in a daze under the lamp, she didn't even notice when she came back, she patted her on the shoulder, Daiyu came back to her senses, forced a smile,

"Sister Lu, you're back!"

Jia Lu saw her reluctance, thought she was unwell, and asked, "Sister Lin, what's wrong with you but you are unwell?"

Daiyu was troubled in her heart, and she couldn't laugh, she fell silent again, and crystals gradually slipped from the corners of her eyes.

Since Daiyu returned to the capital, she raised Lin Rui day and night, and she seldom cried. At least Jia Lu had never seen it before. She became anxious and asked,

"Sister Lin, what's wrong with you, tell me what's embarrassing. Although I'm not smart, if one person counts the short and the other counts the long, there will always be a way."

Under Jia Lu's repeated persuasion, Daiyu opened her mouth. It turned out that Lin Rui asked her one by one what she didn't understand just now. It was better at first, but later it involved current and political affairs. How could she respond to this?

If it had been before, Daiyu could still think that her talents and learning were no worse than that of the man, and the Four Books and Five Classics learned by the man would not be difficult for her, but when she really started to understand, she realized that things were far from that simple.

The ancestors of this dynasty fled from the pass to the outside of the pass, and then came to Beijing from outside the pass. What they saw, heard, and felt along the way is far from comparable to those of the royal family who came from aristocratic families in the pass. The knowledge has passed, but more talk about current affairs and practical events.

Since the examinations before the general examination are all taken in the place of household registration, and the examinations are mostly related to local current affairs, so more people prefer to study in the academy in their hometown, and then study in the capital for three years before taking the general examination. Political affairs are far from romantic.

Not only is it difficult to buy it outside, even if it is available, Daiyu is still in her filial piety, so it is difficult to go out often.

At first, I was able to teach with ease, but recently it has become more and more stretched. Rui'er is so smart, and when she sees a question that is difficult for her to answer, she is so sensible that she doesn't ask. How can she delay him?

This is also a worry for Daiyu, she and Lin Rui are the only ones left in the whole Lin family, if Lin Rui is not smart, it's fine, it's good to be a rich and idle person, but judging from Lin Rui's daily behavior, He also intends to create a career, and he is such a smart person, with this ability and ability, but I can't provide him with what he wants.

After Jia Lu heard about it, she was also helpless. In the past two years, the Jia family school has been getting better and better, especially the group of clansmen who took the exam with Jia Rong this year, including Jia Heng, Jia Fan, Jia Chen, etc. Although there is no Jia Rong Such excellence can be regarded as being born in the imperial examination, relying on the Duke's mansion, his future prospects will not be bad.

The reputation of the Jia family clan gradually spread, and the in-laws with other surnames all hoped to be able to join the school, no matter how much money they spent, it was just that Jia Lu found out from Jia Jing. Jing insists that he is not willing to be attached to others, this way can only be cut off.

"Sister Lin, since your father has been granted the title of Duke Wensu, there are many people who want to make friends with his colleagues, how about choosing someone who has both ability and integrity as a teacher?" Jia Lu thought for a long time, and came up with this idea .

Daiyu lowered her head in thought, then shook her head slowly,

"That's not right, my father has passed away, and I'm leaving for tea, besides, my father was in a hurry that day, and I was in the capital in the early years, but I don't know who my father is on good terms with."

"It's just that people go to drink tea, isn't there one or two people who can be entrusted to contact?" Jia Lu asked, if this is the case, then it is too sophisticated, maybe Lin Ruhai has failed too much in life?

Daiyu explained,

"Of course not everything is like this. When I was at the Lin family in the south of the Yangtze River, there were still some people my father made friends with who came to give gifts. At that time, I was still able to make decisions, and I also had contacts. It's just that after returning to Beijing, we were guests at Jia's house. He is also a filial piety person, so these human relations were handed over to Lian's second brother and Feng's sister-in-law. Later, Lian's second brother had an errand, and after handing over these chores to Feng's sister-in-law, Feng's sister-in-law was busy, and her father's friendship was not good. It's a scholar's family, and the rules are different from ours, so it's somewhat neglectful, and I gradually lost contact with him just now."

Jia Lu felt sorry for her when she heard that, the Dakang Dynasty was a dynasty of human kindness, and the connections made over the years were far more precious than any gold or silver.

Why was the Wang family willing to marry two aunts to the Jia family, or were they two daughters born on the same day?This is to insist on the Jia family not to let go?

It was because of his connections in the army after Jia Daishan's death that Wang Ziteng was able to climb so high in the army.So soon, after Jia Daishan passed away, the Rongguo Mansion had two headed family members, one was taken care of at home, and the other was completely transferred to a civilian position. The connections of the Jia family were not available to the Wang family, so wouldn't it be a waste of money?

At that time, the ancestor of their royal family was just a small earl. If it weren't for the connections left by Jia Daishan, his prince Teng could only climb up from the bottom no matter how capable he was.

The contacts of the Jia family were able to push Wang Ziteng to the Jiedushi of the Beijing Camp, and now he is in the position of inspector of the capital of the nine provinces. The contacts of the Lin family over the years may not be able to push Lin Rui to the position of the elder of the minister's cabinet, but this relationship It needs to be carefully maintained, but this Jia family has always been rich and powerful, and Sister Feng may not have a heart. This Lin Rui is young, and this connection is gradually lost. When Lin Rui grows up, he may not have much legacy. What a pity some.

In this case, this path can only be given up.Compared with Daiyu, Jia Lusheng has two boys of the right age at home, especially Jia Rong. When Jia Rong started studying, the family members compared and compared each other, and discussed all the ways. In a blink of an eye, Jia Lu Another idea came up.

"Sister Lin, you can send Di Rui to the academy! Jinling Academy and Maoshan Academy in the south of the Yangtze River are both good. If you are worried, you can send him to the nearest Taiji Academy, Jianyi Academy, Wenjing Academy, etc." When Jia Rong went to the south of the Yangtze River, she used to study at Jinling Academy. He heard that the atmosphere of the academy was not bad, so she recommended it.

Daiyu's eyes lit up, it was a good idea.

"Sister Lu, although I have heard of the name of this academy, I don't know how to enroll in it?"

Jia Lu actually didn't know, racking her brains to think back to Jia Rong's reply when she went to Jinling Academy,

"This academy seems to be the same as the imperial examination. You have to pass the exam to enter, and then you will be offered a rite of study. It's just that the students are not allowed to go home easily after entering the academy. Even servants are not allowed to follow. You can only go home once a season. Many ordinary people are enrolled in academies to study. As for what to teach, it depends on the abilities of each academies.

If Sister Lin intends to let Brother Rui go to the academy, we can invite Second Brother Lian, and I can also teach Brother Rong and Brother Qiang to find out for a while, and I will definitely find the most suitable academy for Brother Rui. "

Since entering Beijing, Lin Rui has been under Daiyu's eyes every day. Daiyu values ​​Lin Rui more than herself, and she hesitates when she hears that she can only go home once a month or a season. It's just the matter of studying. There is no delay, and besides, you have to ask Lin Rui what he thinks about this matter. I don't know if he is willing to leave home to study.

After hesitating, more and more worries turned to his chest, and he didn't sleep well all night.
