After entering the car, everyone discovered that there were already two people sitting inside.
An old man and a girl with braids, apparently a grandfather and grandson.
Seeing everyone coming in, the old man was obviously a little embarrassed.
Because although Zhao Jun and his party were only wearing ordinary gowns, they held high positions all year round, so they naturally had an aura that was different from ordinary people.
He doesn't look like an ordinary person.
Li Yi and others didn't notice anything strange about the grandfather and grandson, but Zhao Jun did.
He immediately smiled gently at the old man and said, "Don't be nervous, old man, I'm just waiting for ordinary students.
I just came out of school and wanted to go shopping on East Street. "
Looking at Zhao Jun's gentle smile and listening to the explanation he gave, the old man relaxed a lot and said with a smile: "It turns out they are some young husbands. The young man and his grandson are rude, and they are so lucky." How lucky you are to ride in the same car with all of you!"
Zhao Jun shook his head and said with a smile: "You don't deserve to be called a gentleman. Our knowledge is still shallow, but we don't deserve this title."
But the old man smiled and said: "Yes! Yes! Although it is not the case now, but judging from the magnanimity of the young princes, they will definitely be one of the prime ministers in the court in the future!"
"Hahahaha, I'm so proud of you! I don't have much ability."
After a conversation, the old man completely relaxed and began to talk freely with Zhao Jun. Zhao Jun also responded one by one and raised some doubts from time to time, and the old man also answered them one by one. The two chatted happily for a while.
This couldn't help but make Li Yi and others on the side a little surprised that the prince actually started talking to the old man.
What kind of identity does this old man have that he has the honor to chat with the prince and talk about everyday things?
Are you still chatting so happily?
In the final analysis, Li Yi and others have deep-rooted hierarchical concepts in their concepts.
Although they are now wearing regular clothes, deep down they still place themselves above these ordinary people and look down at them.
That's why this kind of question arises.
During the conversation, Zhao Jun knew that the old man was named Li Sanhan. He was not a local, but an immigrant who moved to Nanli County.
The reason I returned to Yunzhou County from Nanli County this time was to take advantage of the slack season to buy some pens, inks, paper and inkstones for my little granddaughter, and also take her to take a tour of Yunzhou City.
When I was fleeing, I didn't have the opportunity to enter the city. Now that I finally have money and leisure, I have the opportunity.
When Zhao Jun heard this, he looked at the little girl in surprise and said, "Husband, your granddaughter is not yet seven or eight years old this year. Is she old enough to go to school?"
Due to the limited number of teachers in the schools opened in Yunzhou County, the students taught are currently limited to those over ten years old.
Only after a group of young teachers are trained in the future will the enrollment age be gradually lowered.
At this time, the old man felt a little distressed and reached out to touch his granddaughter's little head and said: "My little girl is ten years old this year, and she is already old enough to go to school.
It's just that he suffered a lot from us when he was a child, so he is not tall.
But now that nutrition has caught up, I think it won’t be long before my daughter will grow taller!
It was a good time for her. It happened that the prince had ordered that children like them could go to school, so the old man signed her up.
It's just that Nanli County is good everywhere, but many things are still not as good as our Yunzhou County. Can children learn from pens, inks, paper and inkstones?
I, Mr. Li Tou, have heard this saying, no matter how hard it is, you can’t give up on your children, and no matter how poor you are, you can’t give up on education.
This baby finally got the chance to go to school. No matter how good the pen, ink, paper and inkstone he used, since I have the ability, I must at least give the baby the best within my ability! "
As Old Li Tou spoke, he looked at his granddaughter with eyes full of love.
Seeing the old man's expression, Zhao Jun suddenly felt a little dazed.
Once upon a time, he also had such a grandfather who loved him.
His parents died young and he grew up with his grandfather. Although his life was not very good, the old man gave him everything he could give him.
The kind of love that comes from the bottom of his heart is exactly the same as the old man in front of him.
However, since the old man passed away due to illness in college, I have completely lost him.
Zhao Jun turned his head and looked at the little girl, but his expression became solemn and said:
"Little girl, maybe you still don't understand what my brother said today, but I hope you will remember it and remember it firmly.
Your grandpa loves you very much. He is great. When you grow up, you should respect your grandpa. Don't wait until you lose him to appreciate him. By then, it will be too late.
It is the greatest tragedy in the world to have a child who wants to be taken care of but is not treated as such.
Do you remember it? "
Although the little girl is only ten years old, she has experienced ups and downs and is much more mature than ordinary children. Although she can only understand part of what the big brother in front of her says, she knows that what he said is right. .
Grandpa really loves me very much. When I grow up, I must respect my grandpa well.
Immediately, his little face put on a serious expression, and he replied solemnly:
"Brother, don't worry, Nannan will remember it! When Nannan grows up, she will definitely respect grandpa well, and now Nannan will also help grandpa do things!"
"Good boy!"
Zhao Jun laughed, then took off a mutton-fat jade pendant with a cloud pattern from his waist, handed it to the little girl and said: "Brother, I believe you can do it.
Here, this is a greeting gift from your brother. If you encounter anything in the future, take this jade pendant and go to a local shop with the same pattern on this jade pendant to find the shopkeeper of that shop. He will definitely be able to help you. "
Zhao Jun told the little girl that it was fine at first, but old man Li just watched the conversation between the two with a smile. Li Yi and others just thought it was the prince's whim to educate the little girl.
But when Zhao Jun took off the jade pendant from his waist and handed it over, Old Man Li was a little panicked and hurriedly came up to stop him. At the same time, he said: "I can't do it, I can't do it, my dear husband, this jade pendant is too precious. I can't wait to meet by chance. I don’t deserve this great gift from my young husband!”
Li Yi and others also hurriedly tried to dissuade him: "Yes, Wang... Mr. Wang, this jade pendant is your personal belongings. How can you give it away at will, or to such a little girl?"
They almost blurted out the word "Prince", but changed their words in time.
They wondered how this little girl He De could ask the prince to give away all his personal jade pendants.
This means a huge opportunity for ordinary people like this!
Where can they afford it?
Facing the old man's obstruction, Zhao Jun just smiled, dodging the old man and stuffing the jade pendant into the little girl's hand, and said: "Old man, I'm not giving this to you, but to the little girl, and I believe you can see it too. Come out, my family is not a family that lacks such a few dollars. This jade pendant may be very valuable to you, but to me it is just a pendant.
It's no big deal. I saw my little girl was well-behaved today, so I gave it to her.
Things I send out are never taken back, so just let her accept them! "
Seeing Zhao Jun's resolute look, looking at his little granddaughter holding the jade pendant at a loss, and looking at her young husband who was grinning at him, Old Li Tou finally had to stand up and hold his hand towards Zhao Jun. Bow deeply:
"In this way, the little old man will accept it on behalf of his granddaughter. The young master will definitely remember the kindness in his heart, and the little old man will do his best wherever it comes in handy in the future!"
Zhao Jun just smiled and waved his hand, nodded to the little girl, and told her to put the jade pendant away. The little girl looked at her grandfather, and when she saw her grandpa nodded, she carefully put the beautiful jade pendant away. Put it into your own personal pocket.
This purse was sewn by her grandfather himself, and a crooked yellow duck was embroidered on it.
Although grandpa's embroidery work is not pretty and even a bit ugly, my little girl loves it so much that she keeps it close to her body to store some of her important things.
Seeing her put it away, Zhao Jun smiled with satisfaction, but when he turned around, his face turned cold when he looked at Li Yi and others who had just blocked him:
“You can give my young master’s things to whomever you want, as long as they are pleasing to my eyes!
It’s not anyone else’s turn to comment on this matter! "
Seeing the prince's cold expression, Li Yi and others were instantly frightened and froze on the spot, not daring to say anything more.
