Red Mansion Soldiers

Chapter 66 Reading and practicing martial arts
goo goo goo...

The hot air rose, making the pavilion shrouded in clouds and mist. In front of everyone, there was a small charcoal stove for each person, and a small copper pot was placed on the stove.

On the table, plates of red and white freshly slaughtered mutton were sliced ​​and placed on the table, as well as spinach, bamboo shoots and other seasonal vegetables.

The three brothers and sisters and the elder sister-in-law were together in the pavilion, eating boiled mutton.

Only red dates, scallions, ginger slices, wolfberry, and dried longan are put in, and the soup is simply boiled, and what you eat is the "freshness" of mutton.

"Sizzling, sizzling, coffee..." After dipping in the dipping sauce, the mutton was stuffed into the mouth by half-sized son Jia Lian before it cooled down. It was so hot that he breathed out, but he insisted on eating it.

"Hungry ghost reincarnated, and you are not short of food, what are you doing so fast!"

Jia Hun couldn't stand it any longer, so he knocked Jia Lian on the head with his chopsticks.

"Uh! Hehe..." Jia Lian smirked at Jia Hui in pain.

"Huh..." Yingchun blew on the hot air of the mutton with her small mouth, and after a few puffs, she sandwiched the mutton into the dipping sauce and dipped it into her mouth, her face puffed up.

Li Wan watched the three brothers and sisters happily eating mutton with a smile on her face. Of course, her own chopsticks did not stop.

Sesame paste as the base material, then a small piece of fermented bean curd, two small spoons of sesame oil, a spoonful of chives, a little soy sauce and sugar, mix well, and finally sprinkle chopped green onion and coriander powder, that is called a Absolutely!
"Brother, are you so free on weekdays?" Jia Lian asked suspiciously after swallowing a mouthful of mutton.

"How many things can I have? There have been no wars recently, and the new equipment made by the Military Bureau has not yet been put into storage, and the generals' promotion assessment is at the end of the year. It is only April. How many things can I have?"

After eating mutton with chopsticks again, Jia Hun put the spinach into the small pots of the four of them respectively.

"It's you, I heard from the old uncle Dairu that you don't study hard in ethnology, and play and fight with people all day long, how can you do that?"

"I, I feel sleepy when I read a book... Besides, I don't need to take the merit test..."

"Then you have to study hard! At your age, you should be studying or practicing martial arts! You wander around all day, be careful I will beat you!"

When it came to reading, Jia Lian lost his appetite all of a sudden, and just slid back and forth in the saucer with his chopsticks, without saying a word.

"However, when it comes to martial arts, if you really don't want to study anymore, I can arrange you to experience it in the Beijing camp for two months. What do you mean?"

"Ah, big brother, really!" Jia Lian regained his energy all of a sudden, and stared at Jia Hun with wide-eyed eyes.

"It's not a big deal, it's not a problem to arrange you into the auxiliary barracks, not only you, but your big brother Zhu also came to tell me a few days ago.

As far as he can see, the ethnology is indeed getting more and more chaotic. You also know that Uncle Shiliu’s health is getting worse and worse, and his uncle is getting older. In charge of ethnology, he didn't even bother to run away.

In this case, ethnology will become more and more chaotic.Those who wanted to study well were interrupted and couldn’t get in, and those who didn’t want to study were detained and caused trouble in ethnology, so we simply gave them a place to go and eat the hardships of martial arts..."

Jia Hun told Jia Lian how to practice martial arts and how powerful he would be in the end, Jia Lian's eyes lit up when he heard it.

Li Wan on the side looked at Jia Lian with pity, alas, another young boy was limped by tricks.

It's not like she hasn't seen how much Jia Hun suffered when practicing martial arts, but now, all of this will befall the delicate and spoiled Jia Lian.

Tsk, I hope my uncle can stick around for the next two months.

The last plate of mutton fell into Jia Hun's stomach, picked up a toothpick to pick his teeth, and drank a cup of jasmine tea.

"Sister Ying, you can stay with your sister-in-law, brother and your third brother are going to the east."

Without further ado, Jia Hun immediately took Jia Lian to find Jia Zheng, who was absent from work, and Jia She, who had just woken up from the hangover for less than half an hour.

"Old man, I think so, okay! Second child, what do you think?" Jia Amnesty's mind was still muddled, and he couldn't hear what Jia Hun was saying clearly, but since it was a big proposal, it was accepted. Definitely right.

Seeing his elder brother looking at him in confusion, Jia Zheng knew that he must not have listened.

However, a while ago, the old sixteenth of the Confucian uncle's family was seriously ill, and Jia Zhu was asked to take over for him for a few days. After Jia Zhu came back, he did talk to himself about this issue, but at that time it was time to move the capital, so there was a delay down.

"Zhu'er also talked about this issue, and I also think this proposal is good, but I still need to ask Zhen'er to discuss it."

"It's easy, come here, go, go and ask Master Zhen of the Dongfu to come, come here." Jia She gave an order to the door, and the servants outside hurried to the Dongfu.

Not long after, Jia Zhen entered the room with a full body of makeup, greeted everyone and sat next to Jia Zheng, his brows furrowed.

"Hey, Big Brother Zhen, you mean the rouge shop has been overturned and you've been buried in it?"

"Haha, almost, almost, my brother told you, the newly bought troupe at home..."

"Ahem!" Jia Zheng signaled that there was another child here, and it was only then that Jia Zhen noticed Jia Lian who was beside Jia Hun, and suppressed the words that were about to come out.

At the very least, he shouldn't have said this before Jia Lian started eating meat.

"Brother Zhen, what happened to the troupe?" Jia Lian became interested.

"The troupe is a hammer! Just stay and go!" Jia Hun slapped Jia Lian on the head, and Jia Lian immediately stopped talking.

Jia Hun will tell Jia Zhen the original plan.

"That's it. After all, we are honorable generals. I can't be the only one in the army, right? Besides, not everyone is suitable for studying. If you don't succeed in studying, you can join the army. If you can't succeed in the army, you can study business. Going to learn a craft, you can't all the eight house brothers rely on the three houses to live and wait to die? This is not the way to build a family!

Besides, I want everyone to hang around in the military camp, so let’s talk about Zhudi, Zhudi almost failed the last exam, isn’t it because of his weak body?
Whether you study or not, you have to go to the camp for several months and have enough food and clothing. At least your health will not be bad, right? "

"I think it's okay!" Jia Zhen was the first to express her opinion.

Let's not talk about anything else, just let the eight-family brother be self-reliant to a certain extent, and he can support him with both hands and feet. With more and more eight-house brothers, no matter how rich the ancestral property is, it will not be able to withstand the expenses, but he Being the patriarch again, he had to pay the money.

"Then it's settled?" Jia Amnesty finally came to his senses.

Seeing that all the men in charge of the Jia family nodded their heads.

"Just do it!"

. . . . . .

The joint order of the masters of the three houses could not be stopped even by Jia Mu and Jia Jing in the Jia family. Soon, the new ethnological regulations came out, which aroused heated discussions among the Bafang clan.

Some looked excited, some looked indifferent, and some looked dissatisfied.

For the matter of entering the barracks, Jia Zhen strongly recommended Jiao Da to be responsible. Jia Hun was also familiar with Jiao Da. He was the one who taught him how to escape... how to survive after leaving the battlefield. Jia Hun did not look for anyone else.

Then there is the ethnology teacher. Jia Dairu's monthly regulations are still distributed as usual, but he has been framed and only used as a supervisor, and no longer directly serves as a lecturer.

On the other hand, Jia Zhu volunteered to find a few classmates from poor family backgrounds, and a Juren and several scholars took turns teaching, which was considered a different way of helping them.

When the children in the ethnology school heard that they were going to the military camp, no matter whether they studied literature or martial arts, they were all so excited that they couldn't sleep all night, and they all came to the school with two big bags under their eyes the next day.

Jia Hun's soldiers had already prepared several carriages, and when they saw the children happily entering the carriages, the soldiers also showed cruel smiles.

The children in the carriage, including Jia Lian, were all very excited. They were discussing that after learning martial arts, they would learn how to fight in all directions like Brother Hun from the West Mansion (uncle) and win the title of Marquis and Prime Minister!

While discussing and discussing, the carriage entered the Beijing camp.

Being rudely kicked out of the car by the soldiers made Jia Lian and the others very dissatisfied, but excited they decided to let the soldiers go for the time being, and overthrow them after they finish their studies!
After orderly queuing up to receive the corresponding mandarin duck battle jackets, felt armor and other equipment, they happily entered the assigned barracks. After the exhaustion and excitement of the whole night dissipated, they were powerless. On the bed, fell asleep.

Boom!
Suddenly, the door of the barracks was kicked open, waking up most of the teenagers, Jia Lian was also awakened, and looked at the door angrily, only to see an old man with white beard and hair looking at them with a grinning face.

"Jiao, Mrs. Jiao!" The disciples immediately recognized the old man. The old man was an old soldier who crawled out of the dead with the old Ning Guogong on his back. Even Jia Zhen didn't dare to do anything to him in person. In the future, Jia Rong didn't dare to do any harm to him, but just fed horse manure to humiliate him.

Ning Guozhu's family is like this, and the boys from the collateral line don't dare to make trouble in front of him.

The old man looked up to the sky and laughed, and suddenly walked towards the sleeping boys, threw off the quilt, took out a wooden stick and started beating his buttocks.

The boy who was woken up screamed like a pig, and escaped from the barracks. The howling also woke up the rest of the boys. They looked at the room blankly, and suddenly saw Mr. Jiao staring at them with a wooden stick. Look, I'm scared and shivering in the corner.

Jiao Da giggled and looked around. It was the lack of a few teeth that made him a little more funny, but the boys were still scared to death.

"Boys, your good days are over! Get out and assemble!"

. . . . . .

"Uncle, master, brother. Lian'er and the others have already been sent away, and my classmates are coming too, wait."

Poor children, how can the training method developed by Brother Hui be so easy to practice?Fortunately, I am already a Juren, so there is no need to go!
Jia Zhu reported on the ethnological affairs with a smile on her face. At the beginning of this year, Jia Zhu suffered a serious illness and missed Chunwei, so she had to wait for next year's Enke. .

"Well, that's good, you pack up too and get ready to go to the barracks."

Jia Hun nodded and said as if nothing happened.

"What? Me? I'm going to the barracks too?"

"That's right, your health is so poor, and you had a serious illness at the beginning of the year, maybe it's even worse.

So, your elder brother, I plan to let you go to the barracks to practice with them, don't worry, I have already greeted Mr. Jiao, and he will take good care of you.

You will stay for at least three months, don't worry, you will definitely be served with delicious food and drink!
Don't worry, Mr. Jiao has a sense of propriety, he won't damage your body, anyway, it won't make your body worse, so it's settled!

You, go at ease! "

"No, no, what about my studies? Master, master, please say something, master!!"

He had also seen Jia Hun practice martial arts, and he had also read Jia Hun's military training plan, he treated people like animals, he might be exhausted to death with his small physique!
The two soldiers opened the door, took Jia Zhu's arms and walked out. Jia Zhu looked at Jia Zheng in a panic, hoping that his master could speak for him, but the master turned his head away with a look of resentment.

"Son, you can go at ease, you will be back at the end of July, and you still have nearly half a year to study..."

Jia Zhu was desperate, and didn't struggle anymore, and let the two soldiers drag him out.

Pearl reluctantly carried the bag, which contained some of Jia Zhu's personal clothes and ten taels of scattered silver.

Handing the burden to the soldier on Jia Zhu's right, he watched with tears in his eyes as Jia Zhu was stuffed into the carriage and drove away.

　The first update, there will be another update around two o'clock.
