Just when the joy on Jia Baoyu's face bloomed to its brightest, Jia Huan couldn't help but said: "Old ancestor, when Brother Bao came back just now, I had a few words with Brother Bao."
"I didn't expect that Brother Bao had just entered the Imperial College and studied for ten days, but he had almost finished the entire university. Brother Bao is one step closer to being the number one scholar."
"It would be a pity not to go to the Imperial College this time to study at the top of the list!"
Jia Huan's words once again caused the faces of Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, and Baoyu to change color.
Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang were excited, while Jia Baoyu was frightened.
At this time, Jia Baoyu wanted to yell at Jia Huan: Traitor, shut up!
Then he slapped him against the wall and couldn't even button it.
Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were very excited.
So it turned out that studying in the Imperial College was so effective? No wonder Brother Huan came back with the top prize after studying there for less than half a year!
Look at Baoyu. He has only been there for ten days and has almost finished a university degree. Isn't this progress much faster than Brother Huan?
As long as you persist, a No. 1 pick will definitely not run away.
The temptation of being the number one scholar made Jia's mother hesitate.
What they don't know is that Jia Baoyu has been studying at university in the past few years at home and has never finished it. They didn't even know how serious Jia Baoyu's words about finishing college were.
Jia Mu hesitated for a long time before saying, "Brother Huan, if Baoyu continues to study in the Imperial College, he will certainly be able to get the top prize."
"But just now Baoyu said that if he goes to the Imperial College again, he will die there. What should we do?"
Jia Huan said calmly: "Old ancestors, in the Imperial Academy, there are children of officials and princes, ordinary students and children of poor families."
"The Imperial College was established in the Sui Dynasty and has gone through several dynasties and more than a thousand years. I have never heard of any student dying in the Imperial College."
Well, in fact, Jia Huan didn't know if any students died in the Imperial College. With more than a thousand years of history, there must have been some. But Jia Huan expected that Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang didn't know this.
Jia Huan continued: "Brother Bao just said that he didn't know how to comb his hair without anyone to serve him, but I saw that Brother Bao's hair is still combed in a decent way."
"Brother Bao said he didn't know how to dress when no one was waiting for him, but I saw that Brother Bao's clothes were not bad at all."
Hearing this, Jia Baoyu's face changed drastically, and he finally realized that he had made a huge mistake. But it can't be made up for now.
Jia Baoyu was used to hanging out among the maids. He even combed She Yue's hair. How could he not comb her hair?
He also dressed the maid, so how could he not know how to dress?
As for eating and bathing, you will be able to do it after a few hungry meals and a few days of bad food. Is there any truth that cannot be learned?
The faces of Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang could not help but look thoughtful.
"In the Imperial College, there are people whose status is inferior to Brother Bao, and there are people who are more respected than Brother Bao. Most people at home have nothing to do but food and clothing."
"However, when they went to the Imperial College, they quickly learned to fend for themselves."
"When my grandson said this, he had no intention of letting the second brother Bao go to the Imperial Academy. Where the second brother Bao will go, my grandson can't say much. It has nothing to do with me, Yuan He."
"Ancestor, madam, if nothing happens, my grandson will take leave first and come back to say hello in the evening."
After saying that, Jia Huan turned around and left.
When Jia Mu's face changed, she knew what happened today, which made Jia Huan angry.
Originally, anyone would be angry about this matter.
Jia Mu hurriedly ordered: "Yuanyang, go and see Brother Huan off for me."
Yuanyang nodded in agreement, raised his feet and chased out.
This was actually the old lady's disguised expression of goodwill and apology to Brother Huan.
The faces of everyone in the room changed slightly.
It seems that with Brother Huan's high school champion, his status in the house has finally changed.
Even the old lady valued him more and more.
Everyone also has a plan in mind.
After Jia Huan left, Jia Baoyu looked at Jia Mu eagerly.
His body was still twisting like a candy cane, and he kept pleading: "Ancestor, I don't want to go to the Imperial College to study!"
"Huan Laosan is the one who has taken it seriously. He has no good intentions. He just doesn't want me to play with my sisters! Don't listen to his nonsense!"
"What he said was just to coax our ancestors! Ancestor, I won't go, I won't go, I won't go!"
Jia Baoyu twisted and twisted like a big maggot, almost rolling on the ground.
Mrs. Wang couldn't help but said angrily: "Baoyu, shut up!"
Jia Baoyu was startled and quickly shut up.
Mrs. Wang's face was livid. Looking at the confused Jia Baoyu, she felt more and more resentful that iron could not become steel.
No matter how much she hated that bastard, she never expressed it verbally. There were some things that she couldn't do or say.
As for Baoyu, he actually didn't have much ill will towards that bastard, but he just called him Huan Laosan and said bad things about him in front of so many people.
If any evil beast is not the number one scholar, it's fine if he doesn't have such a great reputation. Who would care about the life and death of a bastard?
However, this evil beast is now the number one scholar, which is completely different. Once this word spreads, Jia Baoyu will definitely become a joke in the entire capital.
Especially the reason why he scolded his concubine, the number one scholar, because he didn't want to go to the Imperial College to study!
Then Jia Baoyu's reputation for being ridiculous and incompetent will probably become known to everyone.
This was the precious jade that he had born from his own mouth. How could he appear so childish and ignorant in front of that evil bastard?
Mother Jia, who grew old and turned into a monster, naturally couldn't help but notice this, and she sighed slightly.
She couldn't help but ask Mrs. Wang: "Baoyu mother, does Baoyu want to go to the Imperial College to study again? Come and make up your mind. You are his wife after all, and you are the one who wants to make the decision in this matter."
(Isn’t Baoyu’s mother a little awkward? I searched through Dream of Red Mansions and could hardly find any direct conversation between Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang. Even if there were one or two places, there was no title. Xiao Wang? Mrs.? was not appropriate. Finally, I came up with This is an awkward title. Readers, if you have any advice, please leave a message)
Mrs. Wang said almost without thinking: "Mom, if the jade is not polished, it will not be used. My wife thinks that Baoyu should continue to study in the Imperial College."
Baoyu couldn't help but pale after hearing this, and suddenly felt like the world was falling apart and the world was ending.
He cried loudly in Jia Mu's arms again and refused to go away even if she was beaten to death.
Mrs. Wang said sternly: "Baoyu, if you make trouble again, I will ask the master to come! Tell the master what happened and see how he will beat you!"
When he heard the word "master", Jia Baoyu immediately closed his mouth.
It has to be said that the effect of Jia Zhengzhi's cry is immediate.
After a few more words of persuasion from Jia's mother, Jia Baoyu left like a zombie.
He raised his feet and walked towards Lin Daiyu's yard, but before he could get closer, he was stopped by someone.
