Chapter 171 Turning clouds and rain (please subscribe)

Mrs. Wang disapproved of Jia Huan's remarks.

Obviously, she disdains the so-called scholarly family, and she also disdains Li Wan, her daughter-in-law.

I thought the Li family was poor, and even more so that when Li Wan first married, his dowry included several boxes of books, calligraphy and paintings.

I think that in order to show off their appearance, the Li family didn't even want to lose face, and actually made a name for themselves in their daughter's dowry!
  What else could Jia Huan say, he could only curse in his heart: uneducated, how terrible!
  Li Wan's few boxes of books, calligraphy and paintings can be regarded as family heirlooms, and they are even more than enough to serve as the foundation of a new scholarly family.

If you put it out there, I’m afraid it’s not a valuable resource that will be snatched away by most readers!
  Similarly, Mrs. Wang also has a big cognitive error about her scholarly family background!
  An ordinary scholarly family is called a noble family, and a top scholarly family is called an aristocratic family!
  Although there were no aristocratic families after the Tang Dynasty, the top aristocratic families should still not be underestimated. Even the royal family had to give them some dignity and respect.

No matter what dynasty the family is in, there are high-ranking officials and dignitaries in almost every generation.

The Li family that Li Wan belongs to is naturally not yet at the level of aristocratic family, but it can be considered a relatively powerful noble family.

His father, Li Shouzhong, had already reached the position of offering wine in the Imperial College. That was an existence that was highly respected by scholars all over the world, and it was an aristocratic position that no one other than a scholar could hold.

It is impossible to say that Li Shouzhong did not borrow the power of Rongfu to go further when getting married to Rongfu, but in fact, he did not borrow any power.

Li Shouzhong failed to become a high-ranking official in the court until he retired and returned to his hometown.

I don’t know why Mrs. Wang looks down on the Li family?

In terms of financial resources alone, how many powerful families can compete with Yangzhou salt merchants?
  The old lady was much more cunning, obviously not very clear about what was going on, but she pretended to be incomprehensible to fool people.

If Jia Huan hadn't known the details, he might have been frightened by her.

By the way, the old lady and Mrs. Wang both lived in Jinling, so it was strange that they didn't have much idea about the power of Jiangnan Shilin.

Jia Huan chuckled and said: "The Li family where my eldest sister-in-law lives is a big family. There are many children who are successful in studying. There is no shortage of candidates and even Jinshi!"

"With the strength of the Li family and its reputation in Shilin, it is absolutely possible to establish a well-known academy with the children of the Li family as the core!"

Now it’s time to know how powerful they are!

Sure enough, the old lady looked moved. No matter how ignorant she was, she had heard about the Donglin Academy and Donglin Party of the Qianming Dynasty, which was one of the factors that led to the demise of the Qianming Dynasty.

In other words, anyone who can be related to the academy is not a simple scholar.

As for Mrs. Wang, she still looked disdainful!
  Jia Huan didn't bother to pay attention to this person and said directly: "When my sister-in-law was still at her parents' home, she saw the style of top scholars. Naturally, she hopes that the one who teaches Lang Ge'er is a famous teacher!"

Mrs. Wang sneered and said angrily: "Repay the famous teacher..."

"Wang, don't talk!"

The old lady felt her face turn red and glared at Mrs. Wang angrily. She was so ignorant.

As for whether Mrs. Wang's face looks ugly, how can the old lady care so much?

"Brother Huan, continue!"

The atmosphere at the moment was quite awkward. The old lady noticed something was wrong. Obviously things were not what she and Mrs. Wang imagined. Is Li Wan's invitation to Jia Huan for dinner a serious matter?
  There was some complaint in his heart: You Li Wan, why didn't you tell me earlier if you wanted to invite Brother Huan to dinner and have something serious to discuss?
  It makes her unable to get up or down now. Fortunately, Miharu and the others are not here, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.

"After all, the mansion belongs to the Wuxun family, so it has little appeal to top scholars!"

Jia Huan said helplessly: "It is simply impossible to invite such a being to teach in the Clan Academy!"

Mrs. Wang curled her lips and originally wanted to sneer: "As long as you give me enough money, are you afraid that you won't be able to hire those poor scholars?"

It's a pity that the old lady glared back. She felt frustrated and couldn't understand why the old lady suddenly 'rebelled'?
  The old lady has experienced too many things, so she naturally understands them.

She was the famous teacher invited when she first initiated the enlightenment for Master Sheda and Master Zheng. She knew how difficult it was to recruit them, and the old Duke even came forward in person.

Later, when Jia Zhu and Jia Lian started to study, the grade of famous teachers they could invite dropped one level. They were also invited by the Duke himself.

Mrs. Wang didn't know what was going on, so she naturally felt that scholars were easy to invite.

I don’t even think about how much effort and energy the second brother put into recruiting famous teachers for Baoyu. In the end, he got nothing and Baoyu had to go to a clan school?

Seeing Mrs. Wang's calm expression, Jia Huan naturally had to explain to her "kindly" why it was so difficult to hire a good gentleman.

After listing one, two, three, and four, the uneasiness on Mrs. Wang's face disappeared and was replaced by surprise.

She was really surprised that there were so many ways to recruit teachers for clan studies. As expected, the minds of scholars were different, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

This time the old lady finally understood why two generations of princes had to do it themselves when inviting famous teachers.

In this way, Jia Huan, who was originally full of anger when he raised his troops to investigate the crime, was led away by Jia Huan in a few words.

Of course, Jia Huan was not just playing around with words, he was really making suggestions for the clan, and the two female bosses of the Rong Mansion knew it very well.

"So my grandson came up with an idea to ask my sister-in-law to invite the Li family members who are about to participate in the next Spring Festival to come to Beijing in advance and give temporary lectures at the Ethnic Studies to improve the teaching quality of the Ethnic Studies!"

When Jia Huan said this, he chuckled and said, "Just in time, I'll give you some guidance on Lange's studies!" The old lady and Mrs. Wang both looked surprised at the same time, but they had different thoughts in their hearts.

This is indeed a good opportunity!

The old lady naturally wanted Jia Baoyu to benefit from her, and she also received careful guidance from everyone in the Li family.

As for Mrs. Wang, she complained to Li Wan in her heart: She obviously had such good resources, but why didn't she use them earlier to avoid Baoyu having various academic problems?

That is to say, Jia Huan doesn't know the specific thoughts of the two bosses, otherwise he would have to spit.

Damn, you don’t look like Yin Zi, so why do you always have such ‘confident’ thoughts?
  "My sister-in-law has also agreed. This is a great thing for Lange'er and clan studies!"

Jia Huan smiled softly and revealed a little bit about the doorway. As expected, the old lady's face was filled with shock and her eyes widened.

"How could my grandson not inform the master of such a major event that concerns family history and even the future of the children of the Jia family in the capital, so that he can make preparations in advance?"

He showed a 'grieved' look and said helplessly: "After all, Clan Academy is only such a big place. If the Li family's successor really comes, will they still need to rent a yard to live outside?"

The old lady waved her hands subconsciously!

Just kidding, if that were the case, wouldn't Rong Mansion become a joke?

For those who don’t know, they would think that Rong Mansion doesn’t even have a room to entertain distinguished guests for a long time!
  Now, not to mention the old lady, even the anger in Mrs. Wang's heart has almost dissipated.

"Then what does your master do with jade?"

Mrs. Wang still asked the doubts in her heart, but her tone was not so aggressive, and her eyes returned to normal.

If she really messed around, what would the children in the family say about her in the future?

Mrs. Wang is still embarrassed after pretending to be a Bodhisattva for a long time.

Since Li Wan was not present, Jia Huan naturally did not need to be so polite when speaking, and said directly: "Brother Bao rushed over rashly and accused my sister-in-law of not inviting him. It is very likely to be a slap in the face!"

Even with the domineering attitude of the old lady and Mrs. Wang, it is difficult to say that this is just a child's nonsense.

"Old lady, you also know that I respect top scholars very much!"

"If Brother Bao's collision ruins my sister-in-law's invitation to her parents' family, how will I react?"

The old lady thought along Jia Huan's train of thought and suddenly realized something.

As for the temper of the second child, he didn't take action directly, which was considered to be very restrained.

Even Mrs. Wang has a hint of sternness on her face.

She did have disapproval of scholars, but she didn't mean that she didn't know Master Zheng's preferences.

In my heart, I even felt dissatisfied with Jia Baoyu.

Damn it, Baoyu's behavior was aimed at Mr. Zheng's lungs. No wonder he was so angry!
  The expressions of the two Rongfu bosses became more and more gentle, and the atmosphere in Rongqing Hall became normal.

By this time, the two big bosses who had originally planned to attack Jia Huan had completely given up their plans to cause trouble for Jia Huan, so as not to upset Mr. Zheng.

Co-authored, Jia Baoyu is a treasure, but Jia Huan's consideration for clan studies is nothing more than a piece of grass?

At this time, Jia Huan's keen senses detected the aura of Mr. Zheng, right at the door.

There was a thought in my heart, and I planned to give Jia Baoyu a hard blow for calling you so arrogant and domineering!
  The reason why he didn't say anything that might affect Xichun's reputation was because he knew that the two Rongfu bosses in front of him wouldn't care at all, and if he said it, he didn't say it.

She looked hesitant and said hesitantly: "Old lady, are Sister Tanchun and the others deliberately hiding from Brother Bao recently?"

"I guess there was a little conflict. What do you mean?"

The old lady's eyes suddenly narrowed, she looked at Jia Huan and asked directly: "Is there something else in there that I can't explain? Just tell me and listen!"

Mrs. Wang was a little confused. She didn't know what Jia Huan was talking about.
  "My grandson knows the reason. I'm afraid things will get worse!"

Jia Huan hesitated and said, "Speaking of this, there is quite a fuss in the clan school. Brother Bao is now being ostracized by all his classmates!"

"Well, so serious?"

The old lady was startled, her eyes became sharp, and she said coldly: "Tell me, what's going on?"

As for Mrs. Wang, and Mr. Zheng who was standing still at the door of Rongqing Hall, they all pricked up their ears to listen.

"Is such that!"

Jia Huan lowered his head and said: "Qin Zhong, the younger brother of Ning Fu Rong next door, is handsome and has a good temperament. After the second brother Bao returned to the clan school, he was so shocked that he stayed with Qin Zhong all day long and refused to move. !”
