Teach my brother-in-law

The letter was definitely not written by Lin Zizhong. The handwriting is strong and powerful, with the style of Wei Wei. It is probably written by Brother Wei.

Therefore, it is terrible to say that there is no education. Whether you are a soldier or a farmer, you must be able to read and write. The education in the Ming Dynasty is really a problem. It is fine if the compulsory education cannot be popularized. Now those who can afford to go to school are only the families of officials or the rich. People, it is very difficult for ordinary people to think of a scholar in their family.

Lin Zizhong knew some characters, but it didn't mean he knew all the characters. It would be even more difficult to write these characters, so Brother Wei must have helped write this letter.The content is very simple. The letter said that he followed General Wei to Lan County, where General Wei's army was stationed.He also said that there is strict discipline in the army. A sergeant secretly went out to drink and was beaten to death by General Wei's governor. He also said that Brother Wei had issued a military uniform and it fit him well. I miss you very much if everything is well at home. Finally, I said When the Tartars began to go south again.

Fearing that there will be another war, the Tartars in the north often like to lead cavalry southward to rob supplies, such as tea, pig iron, porcelain, silk, etc. Wherever they go, the fields are barren, the refugees are displaced, and the people are in dire straits.Moreover, these Tartars are used to rushing to the next target after snatching it immediately, which often makes it impossible for the Ming army to find them.

Lin Zi just finished reading the letter, and said anxiously: "Second brother going to the army, I really don't know whether it is good or bad. The Tartars have gone south again, and I am afraid that there will be another war. You will be panicked, alas! What should I do?"

"The head of the family, the second brother went to the army, and he must be with the old general Wei. If there is no major battle, do you think the old general will go out? It must be in the army, and the generals below will fight. If it is a big war , there must be thousands of guards guarding General Zhouquan, and the second younger brother is already General Wei’s apprentice in name, how can the guards let the second brother suffer.” Bai He said with a smile, there must be some worries, but unnecessary worries There is no need for this anymore.Who is Old General Wei? He was appointed as a Marquis ten years ago in the Ming Dynasty. He fought all his life and fought countless battles. He was defeated several times.

Even if the Tartars are going south now, there will be no big storms.The eyes of the second child flashed before Bai He's eyes again, it was a terrible look, without emotion, only killing, and now he is in the army again, I don't know if the hostility in the second child that General Wei said at the beginning has ever been eliminated .

Maybe the battlefield is a better place to heal wounds, but I can't understand it just by asking Lin Zicai, everything seems to be like this by nature.

"Reply to the second brother. I will write the pen. What can the lady say?" Lin Zi took out the paper, ink, brush and inkstone, laid out the paper, and wrote quickly. It was nothing more than telling the second brother to pay attention to his own safety in the army and unite with his comrades. , Listen to General Wei's words, learn more about military skills and the like.

Lin Zi can be regarded as a qualified big brother, he stopped writing after nearly a thousand words, and the words on the paper are basically those words of entrustment.

"For those who are in charge, let me add that if there is a war, don't advance rashly, but don't back down either." Bai He said firmly.

"Why do you say that, my lady, are you not allowed to run away if you can't beat him?" Lin Zi put down his pen and asked, obviously he only thought about the safety of his second child, but he didn't think that if he really met a tartar, running away would not only hurt him He alone will harm the Lin family even more.And Bai He felt more and more that the second child was born to kill the field, and now he is still young, and in a few years, he must be a hero in the army, but will the bright red blood awaken the benevolence and righteousness in his heart?

"Second brother, you are born to be a soldier in the field! How can you say retreat!" Bai He said lightly.Of course, she did not expect that many years later, Lin Zizhong would become a fierce general on the battlefield, slaughtering all enemies.

"Oh!" Lin Zi sighed.

This sigh contains many meanings, helpless, sad or other things, but these Bai He will not think about it. After all, they have joined the army and went to the battlefield. Swords and guns have no eyes, and casualties are inevitable. Under the training of General Wei, he grew up without being hurt, let alone a minor general, or a centurion.

After the letter was written, Lin Zi went to the town first, and the letter was sent to the army by the post office, which only cost a certain amount of silver.After that, I bought gifts in the town, this time to go to Mr. Wen's house in Xuetang.

The problem with the second child has been solved, and now the most important thing is the matter of the third child, Lin Ziqian, going to school. He has already made an agreement with Xuetang Wen, and he will be sent to the school in the spring.Compared with the sons of some wealthy families in the town, Lin Ziqian was considered too old to go to the school, and the average age of the students in the school was about six to eight years old.

The road to fame and fame in the Ming Dynasty is only this way. It is most normal for tens of thousands of people to crowd on a single-plank bridge. If you want to be an official, there is no other way to choose. On the road, how many students study hard in the cold window is just one exam after another. After high school, they have been prosperous all their lives, and if they fail to pass the exam, they continue to work hard.For someone like Lin Ziqian who is good at studying and smart, there is no reason not to let him go to school, and the conditions of the Lin family allow Lin Ziqian to go to school.

The first thing to do is to enter the school and obtain the student qualifications. The entrance examination for obtaining the student qualifications is called the children's test, also called the quiz.The Tongsheng Examination consists of three stages: the county examination, the government examination and the hospital examination.The college examinations are presided over by the provincial Xuezheng, which is also called the admiral's college, so this level of examination is called the college examination.Those who pass the college examination are called students, commonly known as scholars.Then they were divided into prefectural, state and county schools to study.The students are divided into three classes, including Linsheng, hyperplasia and epiphysis.Those who are provided with meals by the government are called Linshan students, referred to as Linsheng; those who are added beyond the quota are called Zengguangshengyuan, and the division is called Zengsheng; additional places are added to the end of Linsheng and Zengsheng, and they are attached to the end of all students, called attached students member, the branch is called epiphytic.Admission to students is based on fame.On the one hand, the students from schools in various prefectures, prefectures, and counties were selected as tribute students, and they could directly enter the Imperial College to become supervising students.On the other hand, there are two levels of examinations, the annual examination and the scientific examination, which are divided into six grades according to the results.Those who rank first or second in the scientific examination are eligible to participate in the provincial examination and are called imperial examination students.

Therefore, entering the school is the first rung of the imperial examination ladder.

When Lin Zi returned home, it was already evening, and Mr. Wen kept him for dinner and agreed to Lin Ziqian's enrollment, so Bai He felt relieved.

The youngest, Lin Ziqian, thanked his eldest brother and sister-in-law.I secretly work hard in my heart, study hard, strive for fame in the exam, and honor my ancestors.

It's just that when Bai He saw Lin Zicai's face, there was a trace of loneliness, which probably has something to do with his fame in the scientific examination.Before the Lin family fell into ruin, Lin Zicai had already obtained the qualification of being a child. If he passed the court examination, he would be a scholar. A scholar can be regarded as a real scholar in the Ming Dynasty. It's just that I didn't expect that the Lin family fell into ruin overnight, and there was no chance to study again. Now the family's situation has just turned around. If this matter is brought up now, I am afraid that the wife will not be able to support it alone. It is better to wait for another two years.

Lin Zicai comforted himself, why didn't he want to walk this single-plank bridge again.
