Chapter 718 Analysis
Zhou Banxia said whatever came to mind at the moment, and also explained to Gu Wenxuan various reasons why the eldest son and grandson are valued nowadays.
Especially when you take care of family rules.
Retirement and the eldest son.
He is still the eldest son until he dies and is buried.
Even if he throws a basin, he is not the eldest son, but the eldest grandson.
Unless the eldest son and grandson have passed away early, or left the clan, or been exiled thousands of miles away, who will clean up the mess left behind?
Second son.
Second son.
I can’t even run away.
Just talking about your father.
Let you choose, which one do you choose?
In other words, as the eldest son and grandson, Gu Yangwen and Gu Dalang are not easy to deal with? Gu Wenxuan regretfully began to think quickly to find loopholes.
Seeing his thoughtful expression, Zhou Banxia secretly thought something was wrong and quickly grabbed one of his hands, "You listen to me on how to treat them.
Don't be dirty. With your hands, Gu Yangwen and his son, who else can instigate us to cause trouble? Just wait and see, if you don't do anything, they will get some good results.
Just think of them as the spice of life. It’s so fun to see how different they are as a family, and how they often jump up and down but don’t get what they want.
Keep it for now. As long as they don't want to kill anyone, let them jump. The more they dance, the less our father wants to see them and the more he feels sorry for us. What a good target.
You have to destroy the target. Be careful, dad, live a good life by yourself. If the old man pretends to be pitiful, dad will feel sorry for him again, and that will be troublesome. "
"Okay, don't do anything. "Gu Wenxuan agreed quickly, "I'm annoyed that they came when they knew you were heavy now, so how dare you go to see them.
When our parents were not at home, the old lady was also confused. No matter how senior or junior, there are differences between men and women, she hid again and wanted to be a good person. ”
Zhou Banxia joked, "Perhaps she really didn't know they were coming."
"Possibly, she knows all about the little chicken laying an egg, how can she not know that there are two missing people? What's more, they are coming. The time is not short now. "
What Gu Wenxuan said was interesting. Zhou Banxia did not trust Mr. Gu and the others. She couldn't help but feel happy. She was just about to laugh when she heard Mai Huang came back.
Mai Huang now knows very well how much Gu Wenxuan doesn't like to see him. He doesn't like Mr. Gu to see him either. He doesn't hide it when he replies and doesn't dare to tell the truth.
"...Uncle Chang said it was rude and disrespectful. The master and his wife were not in the house and had closed the door to thank guests. He didn't know that the old master and the eldest master were coming.
After saying that, and politely serving tea, Uncle Chang smiled and asked the old man what important matters he had to meet with the second master and grandma today?
Before the old man could speak, Uncle Chang mentioned that the old man had already told him to take care of things before he went out, so as not to disturb the second master and the second grandma.
The second master is not in the house today, and he is also busy studying books on weekdays. Even the second grandma has already stopped doing things. If it is not something urgent, please wait until the master comes back to the house.
Hearing what Uncle Chang said, the elder asked Uncle Chang if he knew how much it would cost to attend Jingshan Academy for a year. He said that the elder might not know about it, so he wanted to ask the second elder to find out. "
Excuse! Gu Wenxuan looked at Zhou Banxia: I guess you are right. As soon as Gu Dachang comes forward, Gu Yangwen will find another excuse to deal with it without the need for the old man to say anything.
The three of them, their grandparents, have a common problem - they have extremely poor on-the-spot reactions. This should also make them aware that they are not people who can improvise.
Before coming here, I must have thought over and over what situation I would encounter, who I would face, what excuses I would make, and what words I would say. If it were him who came forward, it would definitely be a different story.
Zhou Banxia smiled knowingly and signaled Mai Huang to continue.
"Uncle Chang told the eldest man carefully about who should enter Jingshan Academy. For example, the scholar Xianggong (Gu Wenyu) from the patriarch's family would save a lot of money than Li Geer.
First of all, Shu Xiu is completely different. Secondly, the rewards for monthly and ten-day examinations for young students and Xiucai Xianggong are different. Finally, Xiucai Xianggong can make a living by copying books in the academy.
The library in Jingshan Academy allows every student to borrow books and copy them, but the library only accepts books copied by scholars or senior officials. ”
Indeed, students below the rank of scholar in Jingshan Academy can copy books for their own use without receiving a piece of paper. It is said to avoid delaying their studies.
This reason is far-fetched, but Among the students who are able to study in Jingshan Academy, no one from a poor family can afford to take the exam. Even if there are poor students, they will be admitted.
This type of poor students are not only exempted from the exam, but also the junior students. The treatment at the county school is similar, including free food and accommodation. Basically, the rewards for the monthly and ten-month exams are all in your pocket.
Occasionally, if you make a mistake or a horse stumbles, even if you still have no merit and the yamen will provide you with some supplements, it doesn't hurt, unless you miss again and again, and your benefits will be revoked after a year.
But the benefits are not all canceled at once. First, they are exempted from the mandatory training in the first year, but in the second year they are still the same or have deteriorated, then the next year will be the real deal.
That is to say, as long as you are admitted to Jingshan Academy with genuine materials and are among the top five students, Jingshan Academy will give you three years regardless of your family background.
Furthermore, students who can generally enter Jingshan Academy, although there is no limit to those who must pass the government examination as a starting point to take the exam, the level is still about the same.
At least you have to be able to pass the county examination. It's too bad. Even if you have a recommendation letter, you will be failed in the first written test. You can't even think about studying in Jingshan Academy.
If everyone could get into Jingshan Academy through connections, wouldn't it be a mess? How could Beidi be worthy of its reputation as the number one academy?
“...Then Uncle Chang asked the elder if he planned to send Young Master Qilang to Kaojingshan Academy. The elder just shook his head and said nothing, but the old man spoke.
He said that the elder brother The eldest young master’s father-in-law came to visit not long ago and mentioned that since the second master and the second grandma can recommend our brothers to go to Jingshan Academy, should they ask the eldest son to go to Jingshan Academy?”
How dare you think about it? Ah, you don’t need to take the entrance exam even if I give you a recommendation letter? Not to mention Gu Dalang, even Brother Li almost couldn't pass the third level and couldn't enter Jingshan Academy.
At what level could Gu Dalang pass the entrance examination of Jingshan Academy, a talented man who even made mistakes in every Bible question that looked like a fill-in-the-blank question?
Zhou Banxia looked at Gu Wenxuan dumbfounded.
Gu Wenxuan laughed and shook his head.
Listen!
You also said last night that Gu Dalang should not take any county examinations. Even if he passes the government examination, he will fail in the college examination with such qualifications. It is better to inherit his father's business and learn how to be an accountant as soon as possible.
Whether or not the old man was looking for an excuse to talk about Gu Dalang's father-in-law, it was obvious that in the eyes of this pair of top-notch father and son, their eldest grandson and eldest son were still in bad luck.
What qualifications are not good? It's impossible. Don't be too smart. The bad thing is bad luck. You don't have much money to study, and none of the wives you find are good enough!
"...While talking, the old man asked Uncle Chang whether the eldest man and the old man were direct brothers, and whether the eldest and second master were the closest to the eldest son?"
