That's why Lin Daiyu was asked to praise him less!
However, he added a few more "but" words, so that's the point!
I have to say that Jia Baoyu's hair is really harder than that of a donkey, and only Lin Daiyu can comb it.
Later, Lin Daiyu was communicating with Jia Baoyu according to Xie Yu's first draft. If Jia Baoyu couldn't understand, Xue Baochai explained it as if he suddenly understood.
Jia Baoyu really felt that when she returned to Grand View Garden, although Sister Lin was no longer Sister Lin, Sister Bao was still the same Sister Bao, and her head suddenly became brighter.
Occasionally, I would say don't make Xue Baochai work so hard, she is pregnant now.
This sentence, which I hadn't heard for a long time, was such an ordinary "care" that Xue Baochai almost cried.
On the contrary, I admire Xie Yu's "generosity".
The three of them communicated until very late. Their dinner was a simple meal of white japonica rice and two ordinary farm side dishes, but it was very delicious for the three of them.
I heard that the three of them were studying knowledge, and Mrs. Wang deliberately refused to disturb them.
Finally, it was Xue Baochai who couldn't hold on anymore, not Lin Daiyu who was born with a weak body.
Later, Lin Daiyu, who was very affectionate as a sister, kicked Jia Baoyu away and let him sleep in the study while she hugged Xue Baochai and said some sisterly words to her.
Jia Baoyu was indeed happy.
The next day, after telling it again, for some reason, Lin Daiyu suddenly missed Xie Yu when she saw Xue Baochai talking to Jia Baoyu.
He did not stay another day, but gave Jia Baoyu homework and then went back.
I wanted to surprise Xie Yu, so I brought back freshly picked cherries from the farm for Xie Yu to try, but I specifically asked people in the mansion not to inform Xie Yu.
But they saw Xie Yu, dressed rudely and disheveled, with a liberated look on his face, in the courtyard, asking the cook to set up the grill and grill rabbit, pork, mutton, and venison.
Lin Daiyu, who wanted to give Xie Yu a surprise, suddenly became angry when she saw Xie Yu's mouth full of oily meat skewers and a mouthful of orange honey water, which was really unpleasant.
Xie Yu came to Xie Yu's side excitedly. Xie Yu, who had regained consciousness, saw Lin Daiyu suddenly appeared and almost choked with fear.
Fortunately, Xie Yu had good skills. Although he was a little frightened, he didn't chew all the meat in his mouth and managed to swallow it in one bite.
Seeing that Xie Yu was choking to death, Lin Daiyu said angrily and funny: "You, why are you so anxious? I don't know how to eat it!"
Xie Yu was extremely surprised that Lin Daiyu came back so soon without staying for two more days.
He couldn't help but tentatively said: "There are still some beautiful scenery in the countryside at this time of the year. Peach blossoms? Pear blossoms and pomegranate flowers are in full bloom. Don't you want to enjoy them more?"
Lin Daiyu said angrily: "Are you enjoying it? Ha, I just don't want you to be at home alone. Have you eaten well and slept well?"
Then he pointed at Xie Yu's big meat skewers and said, "It seems that you are more carefree and carefree without me. Do you think you dislike me for controlling you and restraining you?"
Xie Yu stood up quickly, held Lin Daiyu on his special reclining chair and said, "Thank you for your hard work, madam. It's just that I have been compiling books for my students these past two days, and my head is tight for a while."
"I'm acting like a wild man now. I want to relax. But if Madam sees me like this, it really hurts Fengya. I was wrong, I was wrong."
Lin Daiyu sighed and said: "Sir, you are now the master of an official herdsman. You are not such a humble person at the beginning. If you are so disrespectful, letting outsiders know will definitely attract gossip."
"You are not afraid of embarrassment and loss of dignity. I am afraid. Master, just think of me. Don't do this again."
Xie Yu: "Everything depends on Madam. By the way, Madam, you have had a hard journey, but you are hungry. Why don't you eat some roasted food to cushion your stomach?"
Lin Daiyu glanced at the barbecue rack and said disdainfully: "It's so greasy, how come you have an appetite? Master, you should also eat less. It will be very good for your health. You should also pay attention to some health-preserving methods now. It's not as good as before."
Xie Yu: "I know, I know. Madam, you've been working hard all the way, so you'd better eat something to comfort yourself, otherwise I will feel bad."
Lin Daiyu: "You, I don't know what to say about you."
"I just listen to you and eat some, but this is too greasy!"
Xie Yu: "There are those who are indifferent and those who are indifferent."
"Come here, bake some gluten for Madam. By the way, get some frozen tofu and vegetables from the ice room, and let Madam try your skills."
"If Madam likes it, there will definitely be a reward."
"Thank you, sir, thank you, madam, thank you, madam..."
Look, Lin Daiyu's prestige is better in this mansion.
Relatively speaking, Lin Daiyu is a red-faced character in the mansion, while Xie Yu, who has a good personality, is a white-faced good guy.
We are not afraid of good people with fair faces, but more afraid of bad people with red faces.
Lin Dai pointed at the magnolia flower and whispered: "You will make things difficult for me."
After that, Zijuan was ordered to celebrate the cherries.
Of course, I specially asked the cook to pick up two pieces of tender roasted lamb chops for Zijuan and let Zijuan eat them before going.
It was really hard for this girl to run up and down with him these past few days.
It started with Zijuan opening her mouth to eat Xie Yu's tender lamb chops, and Xie Yu's preference for fat meat was rewarded by Lin Daiyu, who looked like she was doing her best.
It's been a few years, so the mansion naturally knows who is in charge of this family, so if you offend Xie Yu, just say a few nice words and it will probably be over.
But it is a sin to offend this evil-minded mistress.
Coupled with the temptation of delicious food, they started to eat regardless of Xie Yu's heartache.
Looking at the gnawed iron sticks with sparks on them, Xie Yu had no choice but to accompany Lin Daiyu and eat roasted vegetables or eggplants to fill her stomach.
Although it tastes great with my own secret sauce, it's always a little boring.
Lin Daiyu said she wouldn't eat anything, but in the end she seemed to be full. Due to her digestive ability, Xie Yu had to give her a digestive injection.
It can be seen that barbecue is indeed soul food!
Wow, I received a few more orchid fingers that touched my soul, so sad!
Half a month later, the imperial court officially issued the decree to resume this year's provincial examinations. The scholars who were temporarily qualified to participate in the examinations were scattered one after another, and many were caught off guard.
All living beings are in various states of mind at the same time!
For those who can't wait for a long time, are impatient, and hope that their talents and learning can be shown as soon as possible, it is a good thing to take the exam in advance, and take the exam early and quickly.
If you're a procrastinator, that's a big deal.
In short, there were too many negative emotions. Xie Yu felt that the right time, the right place, and the right people were all there.
The next day, Lin Daiyu went to the Red Sandalwood Castle to lie down again and sent Xie Yu's second draft to Jia Baoyu.
After another two or three days, Xie Yu began to collect and organize the practical strategies he saw from the Hanlin Hall, and sent them to bookstores for printing and distribution.
Of course, this is mainly for the talented students who came from their own schools and have the opportunity to take the undergraduate examinations, and the supervising children of the school sponsors.
Finally in August, news was finally received that the emperor had appointed the former Imperial Academy's sacrificial wine as the grand master to be responsible for this year's Mid-Autumn Festival in Beijing.
At that time, all living beings were in various moods, and the former Imperial Academy's wine-offering exercises were copied by "Luoyang paper nobles".
The practical remarks sent by Xie Yu also began to be mixed with the refined remarks of the former Imperial College, and they became more frequent, finally making students with some emotional intelligence realize something.
Xie Yu is giving them a "question"!
It's just that there are some things that you can't say, and you can't admit them if you say them. You can only understand them yourself.
Those who react slowly are already too late. They sharpen their guns temporarily. Unfortunately, there is not enough time. One step is slow and the other is slow!
After August, half of the exam content was within Xie Yu's scope.
Looking back at Xie Yu's topic, it suddenly dawned on me, but it was already too late. With hindsight, I could only pull my hair out in annoyance.
There was a person here who didn't feel annoyed, but felt strange. How could Xie Yu win most of them? Was he giving away the question?
But thinking that Lin Daiyu was among them, she returned to the Rosewood Castle without daring to say anything. She locked herself in her room and did not dare to go out.
I once again took a closer look at the notes that Lin Daiyu brought over, and the more I read through them, the more surprised I became!
In hesitation, She Yue asked She Yue to find a brazier, and after burning it, he took a book and started reading it seriously, as if this was the only way to feel more at ease.
Xue Baochai knew that Jia Baoyu did poorly in the exam, so she thought of how to comfort her while touching her growing belly.
Even if it's for the sake of the children, it doesn't matter if they endure more hardships, as long as they know that Mr. Bao will realize his shame and be brave enough to make progress.
In September, when the results of Jingzhong were released, there were 130 candidates admitted, and among those who came from Xie Yu's school, there were only 13 candidates, including those from the periphery of Jingzhong.
Xie Yu's family's school had more than 50 people who passed the exam, and it was a bit of a sensation in his family's school for a while.
Among them, the 107th one on the Beijing list is Jia Baoyu, a farmer from Rosewood Castle outside Beijing. It is implicit that few people except those who are interested know about it.
Knowing that Jia Baoyu had been hit, he immediately wrote a note and sent a carrier pigeon to the Red Sandalwood Castle.
The custodian of Zitanbao did not dare to neglect and quickly handed the note to Xue Baochai.
When Xue Baochai looked at her husband, he saw that Mr. Bao had won the 107th place in the exam "as expected". This title could only be said to be a happy one when the Jia family was prosperous.
But until now, it is good news to cheer up the Jia family.
Xue Baochai, who almost got pregnant for a moment, quickly asked someone to announce the good news to Mrs. Jia Zhengwang, and asked the accountant to prepare coins to reward the person who brought the good news, as well as money to distribute to the master of the village.
When the government announced the good news to the Red Sandalwood Castle, Xue Baochai naturally presented him with wedding money. After letting people set off firecrackers, he scattered the two large frames of copper coins that had been prepared along the village to spread the joy.
Such a sensation, how could the Jia family and the villagers on the Red Sandalwood Castle not know about it, and they all celebrated.
Not long after, Xie Yu sent three fat pigs, more than 30 rabbits, and other materials to the assembly line team.
Zhuangzi’s customers also contributed their own chickens, ducks, fish and geese, as well as seasonal vegetables in autumn.
As soon as I saw the food, it suddenly became more lively.
Mrs. Wang went to worship Amitabha. Although Jia Zheng pretended to look solemn, the hand touching his beard betrayed his mood.
It turned out that Jia Zheng also wanted to take the imperial examination, but the emperor took a fancy to him and asked him to fill his official position, thus ending his path to the imperial examination.
Although the eldest son Jia Zhu was a scholar, he died young.
Although the second son is smart, he is favored by the old lady, but he has always failed to live up to his expectations.
Now that the Jia family is in dire straits, the second son finally has a chance to succeed, and there is a successor to the Jia family.
The winning protagonist, Jia Baoyu, did drive everyone else out, and was alone in a daze, reading through the unbearable first draft of materials that Lin Daiyu brought over.
Xue Baochai came over to take a look. When no one dared to go in, he knew that Mr. Bao's dementia had relapsed.
So, someone broke into the study room. Although Jia Baoyu was angry, he couldn't say anything when looking at Xue Baochai with a big belly.
Xue Baochai asked the others to compete, and then only said: "Danyan, you must be worthy of Sister Lin's heart!"
Jia Baoyu: "If you know there is such a thing as Laoshizi, I won't read it. This is not, this is not..."
Xue Baochai: "You, you still don't understand!"
"Do you really think this is cheating?"
Therefore, Xue Baochai relayed Xie Yutuo's words to Lin Daiyu.
Then, Xue Baochai added: "In the eyes of you scholars, this is just a matter of winning a few questions. It is just a kind of luck in reading!"
Jia Baoyu: "Is that true?"
Xue Baochai: "You should have read so many books, why can't you think about it so much?"
At this time, Mingyan ran over and said: "My second master, why are you still here? I asked you to prepare to accept the congratulations!"
Seeing that Jia Baoyu didn't say anything, Xue Baochai said: "Mingyan, please go back to the master and tell me that the second master will be here soon!"
Seeing Mingyan go out, Xue Baochai said: "You, you just like to be stubborn. There will be spring tomorrow. You can try it by yourself this time. We will never help you. It's up to you."
Jia Baoyu turned a corner and said, "That's true, there will be spring next year!"
"I agreed this time that you don't want to help me, and neither does Sister Lin. I don't want to owe that favor anymore. The more I owe, the more I can't afford to pay it back."
Xue Baochai: "Okay, my second master, then none of us will help you. Let's see what you are really capable of."
Jia Baoyu: "That's how it should be!"
Xue Baochai: "Second Master, I'm calling you!"
Jia Baoyu's expression changed and he said, "Today's matter is all that matter. I can't displease my father. Let's go!"
She Yue, who considered herself a master of debate, expressed her admiration for Xue Baochai, but Xue Baochai turned from happy to worried.
It would be really hard for her to have such an unmotivated husband.
Here, Jia Zheng heard that Xie Yu, who had photographed the person who came to congratulate him, said that he could not come and would not be able to express his sympathy to Brother Bao.
Although Jia Zheng was disappointed, he couldn't say much. After all, he also got the news that Xie Yu was going to be promoted to the Imperial Academy and was worried about the wine sacrifice. He thought there would be many colleagues congratulating him and he couldn't leave.
At Xie Yu's age, this is an official position with a promising future and half a foot in the cabinet.
I couldn't help but admire the old lady's vision. Of course, I also had very good vision.
Then seeing that Mingyan couldn't invite Jia Baoyu, Jia Zheng was about to get angry and asked someone to invite him.
But he saw Jia Baoyu running up in small steps. After seeing Jia Zheng salute, he said: "My son just thought that there were many omissions in the article he wrote in the examination room. I was about to make up another article, but I felt a little distracted. I hope my father will forgive me."
It's a pity that Zhan Guang, Shan Pinren, Bu Guxiu, Cheng Rixing, Ji Haogu, Hu Silai and Wang Erdiao have been dismissed long ago. Otherwise, it would be great to be called "Brother".
But today was a good day for Jia Baoyu. Jia Zhengwei didn't want to make him look bad, so he said: "It's a good thing that you know the omissions in your knowledge, but it also means that your knowledge foundation is not solid enough."
"The mistakes and lessons learned in this game must be remembered in the game next spring."
Jia Baoyu: "My father warned me, and my son has taken it to heart."
Jia Zheng: "Well, just come with me!"
Jia Baoyu: "Father, please!"
It's a pity that the three major families are scattered in the Rosewood Castle, which makes Jia Zheng show off his strength, but he can't show off. I don't know whether he regrets or is happy.
Seeing Jia Zheng walking in front of him, Jia Baoyu suddenly thought of how his father had "forced" him to compose poems and couplets and plaques for the Grand View Garden.
