I'm in the Red Mansion
Chapter 124 Great Joy
Chapter 124 Great Joy
Xiangling took the poem and was so delighted that she immediately started reading it carefully.
When Qingwen and Hongxiu saw this, they couldn't help but feel envious.
Xiangling was already literate, and now she was learning to write poetry.
If she learned how to write poetry, she would be even more different from them.
When Qingwen saw that the Third Master had agreed to Xiangling's request to learn how to write poetry, she couldn't help but have some thoughts in her mind.
She couldn't help but ask, "Third Master, Xiangling can learn to write poetry. Can I, Hongxiu and I learn to read from you, Third Master?"
Hongxiu has been serving the Third Master since she was young, so naturally her status is higher than mine.
Therefore, when the time came, Qingwen pulled Hongxiu along again.
Jia Cong couldn't help but laugh when he heard this and said, "What's so difficult about this? If you want to learn, I'll teach you."
"But I am very strict in teaching. If you don't study well, I will not only scold you, but also beat you with a stick!"
"As the saying goes, strict teachers produce excellent students. If you get beaten, you won't cry. If you back off now, it's not too late."
Qingwen said hurriedly, "As long as we can learn to write, it's worth it even if we get beaten. We are not afraid of being beaten. Third Master, just teach us."
Jia Cong smiled and asked Qingwen to grind ink. He took out a piece of paper and wrote down the eight words "The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is vast and boundless."
In the enlightenment stage, Thousand Character Classic can be said to be an excellent enlightenment teaching material.
The Thousand Character Classic consists of a total of one thousand characters, and there is no repetition among these one thousand characters.
As long as you learn these thousand words, there will not be too many obstacles in daily reading.
On the first day of learning, Jia Cong did not teach them more and only taught them these eight words.
Soon, the two of them learned how to read and recite.
However, when they started learning to write these eight words, their writing looked like a dog crawling because it was their first time holding a pen.
There was no need for Jia Cong to scold them, the two of them were so ashamed.
Jia Cong smiled slightly, stood behind the two of them, held their hands, and taught them how to use force and how to move the pen.
Jia Cong's calligraphy has reached perfection. With his guidance, the two girls quickly mastered the writing method.
Among the three, one is a young man full of vigor and vitality, and two are girls over the age of marriage.
There are many beautiful things when the bodies are in contact, but there is no need to remember them all.
After teaching the two people, Jia Cong habitually read for an hour, practiced a few sets of boxing, and then went to wash up and sleep to rest.
After Jia Cong lay down on the bed, he heard Qingwen say to Xiangling, "Xiangling, have you forgotten that the Third Master asked you to warm the bed tonight?"
Xiangling couldn't help but say, "The Third Master said that we should go together. You asked me to go, so why don't you go?"
Hongxiu, who was listening nearby, couldn't help but chuckle.
Jia Cong said speechlessly: "Stop arguing, come together."
What made Jia Cong even more speechless was that Xiangling really came.
He walked to the inner room beside Jia Cong's bed and said, "Third Master, I, I'm here, how do you warm the bed?"
This girl is really silly.
Jia Cong said speechlessly: "No need, go out and rest early."
"Oh!"
Outside, Qingwen and Hongxiu could no longer hold back and burst into laughter.
Xiangling was so embarrassed that she ran out quickly.
……
The next day, after having breakfast, Jia Cong did not read, but took the indentures of four people, including Aunt Mei, and Xiangling's indenture as well.
When Xue Baochai sent Xiangling over, she also gave her indenture to Jia Cong.
However, this indenture still needs to be transferred to the government office.
In addition, the house given to him by Xue Pan also needs to be transferred to his name.
Therefore, after dinner, Jia Cong went to the government office to take care of this matter.
But the next day, Xue Pan came to visit again early in the morning.
Hearing that Jia Cong had gone out, Xue Pan did not need to avoid suspicion and went to Aunt Mei to pay his respects and say hello.
Aunt Mei actually liked Xue Pan's carefree personality and talked to him for a few words.
Aunt Mei couldn't help but ask, "Pan'er, Cong is now old enough to dance like an elephant. If he were in a small family, he would have married and had children."
"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. Now we have been kicked out of the Jia family's genealogy and driven out of the mansion. Our reputation is not very good."
"So it may not be easy to find a daughter of a wealthy family. You have a wide range of social contacts outside, so think of asking Congge."
"If there is a girl of the same age, virtuous and well-mannered, as long as she is a good person, it doesn't matter if she is from a small family. I can send a matchmaker to propose marriage to her."
It’s no wonder that Aunt Mei, when she was seriously ill, sought help from all kinds of doctors and sought help from Xue Pan, an unreliable guy.
In fact, in this era, being expelled from the clan tree is a very bad reputation.
Not to mention the families of officials, even the wealthy and powerful families would not bother to marry their daughters to him.
Aunt Mei herself doesn't have any social circle, so it's not surprising that she would ask for help when she catches Xue Pan.
After hearing this, Xue Pan couldn't help but ask, "Aunt, if the other party's family is engaged in business, but the girl in his family is well-educated, well-mannered, and proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, would you mind?"
After hearing this, Aunt Mei felt a little conflicted.
She really looked down on people who were doing business.
But then they thought about Congge's bad reputation now, so it was good enough that people didn't look down on them. They no longer had room to be picky.
Thinking of this, Aunt Mei couldn't help but say, "As long as the person is good, it's all right. Why should we be picky about other people's backgrounds? I'm afraid the other party will even look down on us!"
Xue Pan laughed and said, "I don't mind, I don't mind. Auntie, just rest assured. I guarantee it will work."
When Aunt Mei heard this, she immediately became interested and started asking seriously.
Ask which family the girl is from, how old she is this year, what her appearance is like, what her character is like, etc.
Xue Pan suddenly felt like he was trapped in his own web, but he didn't know how to explain it in detail.
I could only laugh it off and say that I didn't really understand it either, then I took the opportunity to say goodbye and leave.
Not long after, Xue Pan returned to Lixiangyuan.
He dismissed all the maids in the room and said to Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai, "Mom, sister, happy news, great happy news."
Xue Baochai couldn't help but frown and asked, "Brother, where does this joy come from?"
Aunt Xue also asked, "What has driven you crazy again, you evil creature? How can there be any happy event in broad daylight?"
Xue Pan laughed and said, "Mom, sister, Aunt Mei is now anxious to find a marriage for Brother Cong!"
"Aunt Mei was not picky about the other party's family background because they had just been expelled from the Jia family. She would not despise them even if they were from a merchant family."
"Mom, you know Brother Cong's personality, appearance, character, and talent. Isn't he a perfect match for my sister?"
"They are a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman. Isn't this a match made in heaven? Isn't this a great joy?"
"As long as I open my mouth, this marriage will definitely be successful! Mom, just tell me, is this a happy event?"
