Aunt Xue in the backyard was very naively doted on by Xue Jue. Relying on her relationship with the Jia family, Aunt Xue asked directly: "Xiannie, I heard that the Jia family is my sister. The head of the house, I'm afraid she remembered the date wrongly, why don't you find someone to go home and take a look!"
Jia Lian felt depressed and thought to himself, how could his aunt have forgotten this matter, but the Jia family did not take Lin Daiyu's coming to Beijing seriously, nor did they take him as a member of the Jia family. The heir is treated as an individual.
It's just that he couldn't say this to outsiders, so he could only angrily kick the boy who was serving him, and scolded him like he was angry: "Why don't you send someone to take a look? Let's see where those naughty slaves died. Got it!"
Jia Lian was quarreling, but Mai Fan was happy. He helped his mother and sister get on the sedan brought by the Xue family, and then he got on the carriage equipped for the young master. They also followed the Lin family. We left this increasingly noisy pier.
When they reached the first intersection of Wharf Street, Mai Fan, who was sitting on the carriage, saw carriages and horses bearing the Jia family's flag hurrying past them.
Looking at the time and the situation, if Lin Ruhai didn't send someone to keep an eye on her, how long would this young girl have to wait alone on the boat.
Thinking of this, Mai Fan shook his head. Now that Lin Daiyu has been taken to his mansion, he can let his sister and mother keep an eye on him and wait for them to come to visit before visiting.
I just hope that Lin Daiyu won't face any more difficulties when she enters Jia's house.
As for him, as a man, he really couldn't help the other party much.
Mai Fan, who used to be Lin's party when he was a student, expressed deep regret.
However, he had just arrived in the capital, but he had a lot of things to do of his own. He could only wait for his sister to come home before he could find out about Lin Daiyu's entry into the palace.
Just looking at the treatment in the capital, he didn't have much confidence in his enrollment in the Imperial College.
If it was just for academic reasons, he wouldn't be afraid.
But the powerful people in the capital... Mai Fan sighed and took it one step at a time.
He first followed the Xue family's carriage to the Xue family's residence in Beijing. He prepared his collection of books, the recommendations given by Master Lin, and all the procedures required for admission to the Imperial College, and then went to the Imperial College to register. .
When it comes to admission to the Imperial College, it is still relatively strict in this dynasty.
As far as Mai Fan knew, there was only one recommended place for the Imperial College in a palace like the Jia Mansion.
Because the second eldest brother of the Jia family is to be admitted to school, there are no extra places for heirs like Jia Lian.
Nowadays, Jia Lian is carrying a fifth-grade official official who can be bought with money. It sounds like he has a good reputation. But if Jia Zhu is still alive now, even if he fails in the subsequent provincial examination, he will be the only one among literati and even officials. The status of the eunuchs of the Imperial College was much more noble than that of Jia Lian's donors.
Therefore, it can be seen that ordinary people attach great importance to admission to the Imperial College.
Many industries have been derived from this kind of enrollment.
It's like there is an experienced one among the supervisors. Every year when the Imperial College goes through the admission procedures, an intermediary is sent as an introduction, and he goes through the court procedures for the newcomers.
When everyone comes down and pays dozens of taels for their hard work, it will be considered as money and goods.
This is a hidden income for those students from poor families who got admitted through the lower classes.
It can save a lot of trouble for merchants and families like Mai Fan who have a blind eye.
Naturally, his admission was arranged through the housekeeper.
But after getting the admission procedures, Mai Fan had to do another big thing by himself.
Because he was a scholar, he entered the superintendent's junior college.
According to his grades, he can also be classified as a first-class superintendent's class.
In their class, there is only one resident gentleman, and the rest are doctors who are more mobile.
And all the students who are enrolled under this gentleman must hold a solemn solemn ceremony to present the gift of repair after entering school.
The student will automatically present three pieces of silk as a gift, of which three pieces will be given to the doctor and two pieces to the teaching assistant.
It's just that after this somewhat traditional ceremony is passed down from generation to generation, the monks sent out are automatically classified into three, six or nine grades according to the students' family conditions.
When it comes to giving gifts, the Xue family must be top notch.
After Mai Fan went home and told the steward who was the main responsible doctor in his class, when the ceremony began, the steward brought him a three-point gift.
That day, all the gentlemen received an identical gift box.
The gift box is about three feet long and two feet square. I don't know what is inside. I just see that the box is painted maroon and made of solid huanghuali. The small mithril lock hanging on the box looks like two coins.
When several gentlemen took it, one of them accidentally pressed it down with one hand. If they hadn't quickly supported it, they might have fallen to the ground.
Because of this mysterious intention, several doctoral assistants looked much better towards Mai Fan.
They first asked Mai Fan if he wanted to stay. After Mai Fan inquired and found out that even if he applied for accommodation, he could go home freely, he naturally reserved a room for himself in case he was not needed.
As for boarding in the Imperial Academy, the inner prison also provides tuition and meals... Mai Fan feels that his family's conditions are really not enough for such treatment.
In this way, Mai Fan hurriedly got everything done, received the supervisor's uniform, and obtained the student status of the Imperial College, so that he could concentrate on his own affairs.
What he didn't expect was that his sister would take advantage of his absence to quietly...do something big.
This matter was not a big deal in Mai Fan's eyes, but in the mind of his mother, Aunt Xue, it was a big deal that made her panic.
It turned out that on the second day after Lin Daiyu returned home, someone from the Jia family sent someone to the door again.
Only this time, the Jia family sent an old woman who was useful to Jia's mother, and they took Lin Daiyu out of the Lin Mansion.
For the time being, the family was left to sort out Lin Daiyu's delicates, but Lin Daiyu's dozens of people who were serving her were all brought to the Jia Mansion.
In fact, this time, there were too many servants who accompanied Lin Daiyu to the capital.
When Sister Lin first arrived in the capital, she first tasted the dishes that are used here.
This was a great meal. She couldn't get used to the heavy salt and oil dishes here.
If you go to your grandmother's house to eat this... Looking at Lin Daiyu's pitiful little face, Lin Ruhai waved to Lin Daiyu's aunt, then take them all with you.
