"Oh, okay, second brother, you have seen so many old gentlemen recently, is it possible that you don't have a son at home?" Ou Mengmeng turned to Jia Zheng, but she couldn't point all at Lin Hai.
"Mother, I asked Wang Ziteng to choose. There were a few sons from Shixun families in my father's army. Wang Ziteng was very optimistic about it. I invited my son to have dinner yesterday. My son thought that Wang Ziteng was more considerate than Lin Hai. Be stronger." Jia She said hurriedly.
"In principle, I don't want the son of your father's old army. Your father must have left some backup for you, but how can I put it? If you don't keep secrets, you will lose your ministers, if you keep secrets of ministers, you will lose your virginity. Your father's backup is for us. It's really hard to say whether it saves the family's life or kills it. Now if Yuan'er is married to these old families, our family will be cleansed, but it will be dark again." Ou Mengmeng stretched out her head and shook her head.
"Actually, you think too much. My father has been a backup for more than 20 years. You really think highly of him. Like Wang Ziteng, to put it bluntly, his career in the Jingying Festival is almost over. He was not as smart as brother-in-law Lin. He gave up his position directly. When he turned around, Wang Ziteng was moved away. You can see the result. So, I don’t point out how it can help. Just like what my father said at the beginning, under the whole world, is it possible? The king's guest, the guest of the king, must be the king's minister. Therefore, it is nothing to choose a fourth- or fifth-grade junior officer for Yuan'er. Can the royal family doubt us for this?" Jia She said casually.
"Well, even Xiong Er can't tolerate Yuan'er's temper. In fact, it would be even harder to find a rude officer." Jia Zheng hesitated for a moment. Although he was a father, he really felt that his daughter was nothing. Good-natured.
When Baoyu heard this, he nodded again. Now he felt that his biological father was not actually that stupid. At least the bystanders could see this clearly.
When Wang Xifeng heard this, she nodded subconsciously and thought about giving Qin Keqing a tug.
Qin Keqing was stunned for a moment. She was of a younger generation here, so what qualifications did she have to say this. Besides, she had not gone through any of her previous engagements and marriages. What to say now?
However, in response to Wang Xifeng's wink, she could only clear her throat and made up her mind that if they stared at her, she would say nothing. However, when everyone looked at themselves and waited for him to speak, Qin Keqing felt a big headache. However, when we got here, it seemed that it wouldn't work if we didn't speak.
"Well, let's wait a little longer. If the eldest man finds the right person, we don't need to meet with eldest aunt. Let's just settle it! After all, the eldest man loves eldest aunt more." Qin Keqing grinded his teeth gently.
Jia She was stunned for a moment and said that he loved Yuan Chun even more. Is this stupid boy really stupid? But he would not be stupid enough to explain himself. After thinking about it, he looked at Ou Mengmeng. It seems that the only one who can make the decision here is the old lady.
"Okay, let's do this for now. Boss, go pick one out and let me take a look." Ou Mengmeng thought about it and made a decision. After thinking about it, "Second brother, you can also pick one out."
Jia Zheng was originally unwilling to let his elder brother pick the choice, but now he heard what his mother said and nodded hurriedly. I made up my mind to choose someone carefully.
"Tomorrow, Baoyu, don't run around with your father. I have published seven sets of papers. Starting from tomorrow, one set will be given every day. Every seventh day, I will give out one set. In addition to asking them to read the book and write an article every day, , you have to make a set of papers and come back, otherwise, you will not be allowed to go home at night." Ou Mengmeng pointed to the box on the table.
Baoyu hurriedly took it, opened it, and thought about it, "Ancestor, are these scriptures, ink meanings, and policy questions? Do you want them to do it once a day now, and in a year, they will be able to answer all the questions? Have you done it? Actually, this is wrong, because every academy is doing this, and you can't actually do it."
"You don't have to worry about it, just give it to them." Ou Mengmeng smiled. Now she could see that the baby was getting more mature and sophisticated.
"Old lady." Baoyu still wanted to say more.
"The Tongsheng examination is divided into five tests, eight-legged essay, policy theory, classics theory, classic poems, and rhymed poems. But starting from this dynasty, classic poems and rhymed poems are regarded as ranking tests. The main ones are classic classics, ink meaning, oral test, and policy Ask the main question.
Tie Jing means filling in the blanks, pasting a few words on a certain line in the book, and you fill them out.
Mo Yi is a short answer, a question and answer on the meaning of the classics. It’s also a test of your scripture commentaries. Moyi is divided into written examination and oral examination.
To put it bluntly, what is the biggest problem between these two? It’s just to test whether you are familiar with the book. Not difficult, but plentiful. Often there are thirty or fifty articles to write, and in such a small amount of time, I really can’t think, so I just write as soon as I pick up the pen.
So now your brother Zhen asked them to do very well. They read it a hundred times a day for a year, memorized it a hundred times, and wrote it down a hundred times. Your father asked them to write down their thoughts. So if you are familiar with this, I estimate that there are few who are better than you;
The third one is Ce Wen. Your father is afraid that you will stop studying, so he has always asked you to write the chapters and articles you memorized that day after you have memorized the book every day. In fact, this is Cewen.
Over the past few months, their articles have gradually become more standardized.
You see, the papers I gave are just to test what you have learned before and make a summary. Do it every day. It is just to prevent them from memorizing it today and forgetting it tomorrow. Therefore, I would take books from time to time and make various question types. They had done it a lot and were familiar with it. It was not difficult in the first place. When they really got to the examination room, they naturally relaxed and felt better than others. "Ou Mengmeng said smoothly.
"You also specified the font?" Baoyu pointed to the beginning of the volume.
"This is the key point. From now on, you will practice Guange style for me honestly and copy the book a hundred times. From now on, all the articles and papers we hand in in school must be in order. Also, they must be in small regular script and large capital letters. At one o'clock, I will go home and be punished." Ou Mengmeng nodded with a serious look on her face.
"Must?" Baoyu didn't dare to ask why, but still asked in a low voice.
"Must." Ou Mengmeng nodded and said firmly.
Baoyu silently took the paper and went out. Life was too sad. He decided to go back and do it first to see if it was difficult before telling his classmates. Now, he forgot to say that he didn't want to study official career and economics. Maybe he would go out with his father to meet those real scholars, and then go to school with Jia She and Jia Zhen. He didn't like to study. He couldn't remember it.
"Mother..." Jia Zheng didn't expect that the old lady would keep adding more rules without changing the regulations. What could the children learn from this?
However, Ou Mengmeng glanced at him, Jia Zheng shuddered, and he silently retracted his words.
Jia She saw that it was almost time, so he carried Jia Zheng back. The West Courtyard is closed, and Wang Xifeng also lives here and goes out to take care of things during the day. Therefore, when the key is handed in here every day, no one will say that the Jia family's rules are not strict.
Ou Mengmeng was in a daze on the Arhat bed. Wang Xifeng and Qin Keqing were a little hesitant and did not dare to leave. They just stood there carefully.
How should I put it? When I was trying to write The Best Peasant Concubine, I carefully studied the ancient examination system. It was really difficult. Don’t think that we have many subjects now, but if you think about it, we have many subjects, but we have refined our knowledge. In ancient times, there were only four books and five classics, but this is a matter of philosophy, and you really have to squeeze out the oil from every word and think about it. So, you have to think about it. If there are only 300 places for the public examination in three years, is it more difficult than taking the public examination now?
