Gulu gulu…
The heat was rising, making the pavilion shrouded in mist. In front of everyone, each person had a small charcoal stove, and a small copper pot was placed on the stove.
On the table, red and white plates of today's freshly slaughtered mutton were cut into slices and placed on the table. Spinach, bamboo shoots and other seasonal vegetables were also placed on the table.
The three brothers and sister plus the sister-in-law were together in the pavilion, eating hotpot mutton.
Only red dates, scallions, ginger slices, wolfberries, and dried longans were put in. Simply simmering the soup and eating the "freshness" of the mutton.
"Herb, brown and v), dipped in dipping, and was stuffed into his mouth by half -size, but before the lamb was cold, he was hot, but he insisted on eating into his belly.
"You're a starving ghost and you're reincarnated. I don't want you to eat. Why eat so quickly?"
Jia Hui couldn't stand it anymore and tapped Jia Lian's head with chopsticks.
"Uh! Hehe..." Jia Lian felt pain and giggled at Jia Hui.
"Huh..." Yingchun blew the hot air of the mutton with her small mouth. After blowing for several times, she dipped the mutton into the dipping sauce and ate it into her mouth. Her little face bulged.
Li Wan watched the three siblings happily eating the mutton with a smile on her face. Of course, she did not stop using her chopsticks.
Use sesame sauce as the base, then add a small piece of fermented bean curd, two small spoons of sesame oil, a spoonful of chive flowers, a little soy sauce and white sugar. Stir together until the ingredients are evenly mixed. Finally, sprinkle with chopped green onion and coriander foam. That's called a Absolutely!
"Brother, are you so free on weekdays?" Jia Lian asked doubtfully after swallowing a mouthful of mutton.
"How many things can I do? There has been no war recently, and the new equipment of the Military War Bureau has not been put into storage yet. The generals' promotion assessments are all at the end of the year. It is only April now. How many things can I do?"
After eating another chopstick of mutton, Jia Hui put spinach into small pots for four people.
"It's you, I heard from the old uncle of Dai Confucius. You don't study hard in clan studies and spend all day playing and fighting with others. How can you do this?"
"I-I feel sleepy when I read a book...Besides, I don't need to take the exam for merit..."
"Then you must study hard! At your age, you should be studying or practicing martial arts! If you spend the whole day wandering around, be careful I slap you!"
When it came to reading, Jia Lian suddenly lost his appetite. He only used his chopsticks to slide around in the dishes and said nothing.
"However, when it comes to martial arts training, if you really don't want to study, I can arrange for you to experience it in the Beijing camp for two months. What do you mean?"
"Ah, brother, is it true!" Jia Lian suddenly became energetic and looked at Jia Hui with wide eyes.
"It's not a big deal. There is no problem in arranging you into the auxiliary barracks. Not only you, your brother Zhu also came to tell me a few days ago.
As far as he can see, clan studies are indeed getting more and more chaotic. As you know, the sixteenth uncle of Dai Confucius' uncle's family is getting worse and worse. His uncle is getting older and he has to take care of his sixteenth uncle. In charge of ethnic studies, he didn't even care about running away.
In this case, ethnology will become increasingly chaotic. Those who want to study hard are disturbed and unable to read, and those who don’t want to study are detained in the clan school and cause trouble. Simply give them a place to go and suffer the hardships of practicing martial arts..."
Jia Hui told Jia Lian how to practice martial arts and how powerful he would be in the end. Jia Lian's eyes flashed with gold.
Li Wan on the side looked at Jia Lian with pity, alas, another young boy was deceived and became lame.
It's not like she hasn't seen how much Jia Hui endured when she was practicing martial arts. Now, all this is about to happen to the pampered Jia Lian, who has tender skin and tender flesh.
Gee, I hope my brother-in-law can stick with it for the next two months.
The last plate of mutton went into Jia Hui's stomach. He picked his teeth with a toothpick and drank a cup of jasmine tea.
"Sister Ying, please stay with your sister-in-law while my brother and your third brother go east."
Without further ado, Jia Hui immediately took Jia Lian to find Jia Zheng, who was absent from work, and Jia She, who had just woken up from a hangover for less than half an hour.
"O-I think so, okay! Second brother, what do you think?" Jia She's mind was still in a blur, and he didn't hear clearly what Jia Hui was saying, but since it was an older man's suggestion, it's OK That's for sure.
Seeing his eldest brother looking at him with a confused expression, Jia Zheng knew that he must not have listened.
However, a while ago, Lao Shiliu, who was acting for his uncle from the Confucian family, was seriously ill and asked Jia Zhu to cover for him for a few days. Jia Zhu did talk to himself about this problem after he came back, but it was the time when the capital was being moved, so there was a delay. Came down.
"Zhen'er has also mentioned this issue, and I also think this proposal is good. However, I still need to ask Zhu'er to come over and discuss it."
"It's easy, come on, go and ask Uncle Zhen of Dongfu to come and come." Jia She ordered outside the door, and the boy outside the door hurried to Dongfu.
Not long after, Jia Zhen, who was all dressed in makeup, entered the room, greeted everyone and sat next to Jia Zheng, which made Jia Zheng frown.
"Hey, Brother Zhen, did you overturn the rouge shop and bury you in it?"
"Haha, almost, almost. My brother told you that the new theater troupe I bought..."
"Ahem!" Jia Zheng signaled that there was another child here. Only then did Jia Zhen notice Jia Lian beside Jia Hui and suppressed what she was about to say.
At the very least, Jia Lian shouldn't have said this before he started eating meat.
"Brother Zhen, what happened to the troupe?" Jia Lian became interested.
"What a troupe! Stay alone!" Jia Hui slapped Jia Lian on the top of his head, and Jia Lian immediately stopped talking.
Jia Hui told Jia Zhen exactly what he planned to do.
"That's it. After all, we are noble generals. I can't be the only one in the army, right? Besides, not everyone is suitable for studying. If you don't succeed in studying, you can join the army. If you don't succeed in the military, you can learn business. You don't have the brains to do it. If you want to learn a craft, you can't have eight brothers all living in three houses and waiting to die, right? This is not the way to build a family!
Furthermore, I want everyone to go hang out in the military camp. Let’s talk about Zhudi. Zhudi almost didn’t make it through the last college exam. Isn’t it because of his weak health?
Regardless of whether you study or not, if you go to the military camp and train for a few months, you will have enough food and clothing. At least your health will not be bad, right? "
"I think it's okay!" Jia Zhen expressed her opinion first.
Putting aside everything else, if the Eighth House Disciple is allowed to be self-reliant to a certain extent, he can support him with both hands and feet. As the number of Eighth Housebrothers increases, even if the ancestral property is rich, it cannot withstand the expenses, but he He is also the clan leader, so he has to pay this amount.
"Then it's settled?" Jia She finally came to his senses.
Seeing that all the men in charge of the Jia family nodded.
"Just do it!"
. . . . . .
Even Jia Mu and Jia Jing could not stop the joint order of the masters of the three houses. Soon, new clan rules came out, which aroused heated discussion among the Bafang clan members.
Some looked excited, some looked indifferent, and some looked dissatisfied.
Jia Zhen strongly recommended Jiao Da to be responsible for entering the military camp. Jia Hui was also familiar with Jiao Da. He was the one who taught her how to escape...how to survive after leaving the battlefield, so Jia Hui did not find anyone else.
As for the ethnic studies teacher, Jia Dairu's monthly salary is still distributed as usual, but he has been raised as a supervisor and is no longer directly responsible for teaching.
Jia Zhu volunteered to find a few classmates from poor family backgrounds. A scholar and several scholars took turns teaching, which was considered a different kind of support for them.
When the children in the clan school heard that they were going to the military camp, they were all so excited that they couldn't sleep all night, regardless of whether they were studying literature or martial arts. The next day, they all came to school with big bags under their eyes.
Jia Hui's soldiers had already prepared several carriages. When they saw the disciples entering the carriages happily, the soldiers also showed cruel smiles.
The children in the carriage, including Jia Lian, were very excited. They all discussed that after learning martial arts, they would like Brother Hui (Uncle) of Xifu to fight in all directions and become a marquis and prime minister!
After discussing, the carriage entered the capital camp.
Being rudely kicked out of the car by the soldiers made Jia Lian and others very dissatisfied. However, they were so excited that they decided to let these soldiers go for the time being and overthrow them after they learned their lesson!
After queuing up neatly to receive the corresponding mandarin duck jackets, felt hoods and other equipment, they happily entered the assigned barracks. After the exhaustion and excitement of the whole night were gone, they felt powerless. I got on the bed and fell asleep.
Boom!
Suddenly, the door of the barracks was kicked open, awakening most of the teenagers. Jia Lian was also awakened. He looked at the door angrily and saw an old man with white beard and hair looking at them with a ferocious smile.
"Old Master Jiao, Jiao!" Several young men recognized the old man at once. The old man was an old soldier who crawled out of the dead body with old Ning Guogong on his back. Even Jia Zhen did not dare to do anything to him in person. In the future, Jia Rong would not dare to cause any harm to him, and would only humiliate him by feeding him horse manure.
The whole family of Ning Guo is like this, and the boys from the side clan don't dare to make mistakes in front of him.
The old man looked up to the sky and laughed, suddenly walked over to the sleeping boys, lifted up the quilt, took out a wooden stick and started hitting them in the buttocks.
The boy who was beaten up screamed like a pig and ran out of the barracks. The howling also woke up the remaining boys. They looked at the room blankly, and suddenly they saw Mr. Jiao holding a wooden stick and staring directly at them. Look, he was cowering in the corner and shivering in fear.
Jiao Da chuckled and looked around. Even though a few missing teeth made him a bit more funny, he still scared the boys to death.
"Boys, your good days are over! Get out and gather together!"
. . . . . .
"Uncle, master, eldest brother. Lian'er and the others have been sent away. My classmates are also arriving. Wait."
Poor children, can the training method formulated by Brother Hui be so easy to practice? Fortunately, I have already been admitted and don’t have to go!
Jia Zhu reported the clan affairs with a smile on her face. At the beginning of this year, Jia Zhu fell seriously ill and missed the Spring Festival. She can only wait for next year's encore. Next year, the Queen's 60th birthday will be held. It is expected that there will be an encore. .
"Well, that's good. You should pack up and get ready to go to the military camp."
Jia Hui nodded and said as if nothing happened.
"What? Me? I'm going to the military camp too?"
"Yes, you are in such bad health. You even got seriously ill at the beginning of the year, so you might be even worse.
So, your eldest brother, I plan to let you go to the military camp to practice with them. Don’t worry, I have already said hello to Mr. Jiao, and he will take good care of you.
You will probably stay for at least three months. Don’t worry, you will definitely be served delicious food and drinks!
Relax, Mr. Jiao has a good idea and won't damage your body through training. Anyway, your body won't get worse after training. That's settled!
You, go with peace of mind! "
"No, no, what about my studies? Master, Master, please say something, Master, ahhhh!!"
He has also seen Jia Hui practicing martial arts, and has also read the military training plan written by Jia Hui. He is simply treating people like animals. He is afraid that he will be exhausted to death with his small body!
The two soldiers opened the door, held up Jia Zhu's arms at the same time, and walked out. Jia Zhu looked at Jia Zheng in panic, hoping that his master could help him, but the master turned his head away with a look of dismay.
"Son, you can go with peace of mind. You will be back at the end of July. You still have nearly half a year to study hard..."
Jia Zhu was so desperate that he stopped struggling and allowed the two soldiers to drag him out.
Pearl carried the baggage with a look of reluctance, which contained some of Jia Zhu's personal clothes and a dozen pieces of silver.
He handed the baggage to the soldier on Jia Zhu's right and watched with tears in his eyes as Jia Zhu was stuffed into the carriage and drove away.
First update, there will be another update around two o'clock.
