Jia Rong joked: "It's still daytime, and I don't have any shame on my face. I actually brought up this troublesome matter. Do you really think your uncle is a greedy person?"
"Who makes me behave erratically every time I say such nice things?" Qin Keqing blushed and snarled, "If I wasn't a greedy man, he would force me to move around all night, and occasionally he would shout A few embarrassing words? How could I not know that last night Ruizhu and the others were hiding and laughing."
Uncle Rong did not dare to discuss this topic further with his wife. Listening to Keqing's complaining words, he took her into his arms and gave her a kiss. He said: "Don't talk about this again, otherwise I will come and announce it in broad daylight to make you look good."
Qin Keqing raised her chin and rolled her eyes at the uncle proudly, and hummed: "It's not possible these days. If something happens today, the uncle will have to change places to sleep for a few more days."
OK! Uncle Rong finally understood that something happened to this girl today, and he felt unhappy. No wonder she was so bold and dared to say anything to herself, knowing that she couldn't touch her and could only suffer as a ninja.
Seeing the proud look on Qin Keqing's face, Jia Rong also chuckled and pinched her little nose. "You're not feeling well, and I can't get better even if you're angry. I don't know where you learned your bad habits, so you're making trouble at this time."
Qin Keqing smiled lightly and turned away, as if he had won a battle.
"You should have some rest. Let Ruizhu and the others supervise the affairs in the house today." Uncle Rong led her hand to the kang and asked, "Have the maids prepared some sugar water?"
After listening to the uncle's words, Qin Keqing finally laughed happily and said: "How dare the maids not prepare? Ever since the uncle scolded Ruizhu and the others that time. Now it has become a rule to prepare them early in the morning. This morning Ruizhu also said that I am a sugar jar in the house."
"Really?" Jia Rong stretched out his mouth and took another peck in confusion, sucked it in, and then said in surprise: "It is indeed a candy jar, and it is sweet in the mouth."
"You also said that you are not for greedy people." Qin Keqing covered her mouth with a silk scarf in shame and pushed Uncle Rong out with one hand. When the uncle disappeared, Keqing showed a happy smile on her face.
Brother Rong left the small courtyard on the east side and went to the courtyard next to Huifang Garden.
It's been freezing cold in Shenjing these past two days, and it's probably going to snow. The Jia Family Free School gave all the students a holiday. Qin Zhong, the unlucky boy, asked Brother Rong to stay in the house and invited Mr. Duan Lang from the free school to continue tutoring him.
"Uncle Rong is here."
Although Mr. Duan Lang was quite arrogant last time, he is still very well behaved in front of Brother Rong now. Jia Rong said: "Sir, how are you doing with your studies this year?"
Duan Lang replied respectfully: "In the second half of the year, Jingqing has made rapid progress. In another year, I will take the exam to be a student in the state and county where I am from."
Jia Rong curled her lips, what a student is, isn't he just a child student? He nodded and said: "In the past two years, Mr. Jingqing, please take care of me."
"Don't dare."
Brother Rong also didn't forget to ask about the other disciples of Yi Xue Li.
"The ones who have made the fastest progress are naturally Jia Lan and Jia Jun. Mr. Zheng's son, Mr. Bao Erye, has a good foundation. His academic performance has not been bad in the past six months, but he has occasionally slipped a little."
Baoyu naturally has talent, but it's just not in his studies. Jia Rong scratched his neck. If Baoyu could enter school at the age of fourteen like his brother, Xifu would have someone who could start a family.
Thinking of this, Brother Rong secretly laughed at himself for taking too much care.
It is better to expect Baoyu than to expect Jia Lan and Jia Jun. It's a pity that these two people are too young, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to persuade the ladies and gentlemen of Xifu to donate money to these two people so that they could have a try in the next August. Anyway, this doesn't cost the Ningguo Mansion, and it can also bring benefits to the two governments.
As for Qin Zhong.
How could Jia Rong not know that this boy made such an effort for the sake of Shuiyue'an's smart son. But he doesn't mind, anyway, it's a good thing to make progress.
Others think Brother Rong is Voldemort, but in fact he has a strong sense of balance in his heart. How much money can it cost to feed Qin Zhong to school?
Doing so not only shows your kindness and generosity, but also maintains the happiness in your own home.
If Qin Zhong really succeeds in the future, it will be a good thing for Ning Guofu.
Have a bigger picture and take a longer view.
Anyway, for Brother Rong, it will never be a loss!
Otherwise, why would those who have become officials and made a fortune since ancient times like to invest money in running charity schools in their hometowns, and even recruit talented outsiders into their family trees?
There are many articles in it!
Entering the inner room, there is everything inside.
As soon as the thick curtain outside the door was put down and the kang in the room was a little warmer, the room became less cold. He walked behind Qin Zhong and took a look. This guy was memorizing scriptures and history.
"Uncle is here." Qin Zhong saw joy on his face when he saw Brother Rong coming. He was almost whipped by his sister that day, but it was his brother-in-law who saved him, and he kept the kindness in his heart. He said with a smile: "Why are you here in this yard today?"
"Your sister is concerned about your studies and specially invited me to ask." Brother Rong asked Qin Zhong to sit down, and he also sat down on the kang to face the case. Said: "I just heard what Mr. Duan said. You have been honest recently and have lived up to your sister's hard work."
Qin Zhong still looked like a woman. After hearing the praise, she just smiled shyly and asked, "How are you doing, sister?"
"She is the grandma of Ning Guofu, so she is naturally better off than you. Her only worry is that you won't be able to learn well." Jia Rong looked at Qin Zhong's hesitant expression and joked: "You probably don't want to ask about your sister. What? Are you still thinking about that nun from Shuiyue Temple?"
Qin Zhong quickly got off the kang with a look of panic on his face. He was about to explain, but was pulled back by Brother Rong.
"You are eleven this year, and you will be twelve after the winter. Men and women are just starting to fall in love, and I, as a brother-in-law, don't have to worry about it. There is no need to be pretentious about your sister now and in the future. Your brother-in-law has also been there. I understand how you feel now."
Qin Zhong didn't know how to reply for a moment, he just stood there and didn't dare to move.
Uncle Rong said: "It's too young to think about the love between men and women at the age of eleven or twelve. But I don't blame you. As long as Jingqing can make your sister worry less, everything will be fine. Study hard next year When the county examinations are open in the next three years, if you pass the county and state examinations in succession and get a bachelor's degree, my brother-in-law will intercede with your sister and will no longer prevent you from meeting nuns."
"Seriously?" Qin Jingqing's face lit up with joy. He smiled and said, "Thank you brother-in-law first."
Jia Rong shrugged. He once heard Ke Qing say that in the past two months, when the nun named Zhi'er followed the master to Jia's house, she came to the house to ask about Qin Zhong's situation. Listening to what Keqing said, this little nun seems to really have feelings for brother Qin Zhong.
There are some things that cannot be blocked, and the more severe the blockage is, the more it makes these two people worry about something bad. If Qin Zhongzhi and his son still miss each other after a year, and Qin Zhong is successful in his studies, it would be better to let them travel freely.
He joked: "I guess you are so studious because of that nun. Are you afraid that I will tell your sister?"
Qin Zhong's face was startled, and he suddenly became at a loss.
"Looking at you like this, I don't know how that nun fell in love with you. You get panicked when something happens. No wonder your sister was so angry that time. Study hard with Mr. Duan these days, and go back and study hard in a few days. Honor your master. Even after returning to the Qin family, you are not allowed to associate with that nun privately. Your master is old and cannot help being so angry."
Jia Rong suddenly remembered this. Qin Ye is now over sixty years old, which is already a long life in an era when medical standards were low. In addition, Qin Ye was not in good health. Hearing that Qin Zhong had contact with nuns, it would be troublesome to get sick.
