Yu Jiang frowned when he saw this student. He originally thought that he was going to teach a dandy kid who must be unruly. But now when he saw Qin Zhong saluting him, there was a hint of womanliness in him. He knew in his heart that he was a dandy.
What's going on?
Yu Jiang now began to lament that the relationship between these dignitaries was really filthy. But since he had promised Jia Ke, he could not go back on his words.
Jia Ke had already seen the displeasure on Yu Jiang's face, and he also had something to say to Mr. Yu Jiang.
"Qin Zhong, please go back first. I still have something to discuss with this gentleman. As for when the class will be held, I will inform you tomorrow." Jia Ke saw that Qin Zhong had already saluted the gentleman. It was considered a meeting.
He didn't want to listen anymore, so he sent him away.
Qin Zhong saw this gentleman as soon as he came, with a serious face and a very fearful look. He had wanted to leave for a long time, but now after hearing Jia Ke's instructions, he immediately saluted them and returned to his place in three steps and two steps.
Went to the small courtyard.
Jia Ke looked at Qin Zhong's back and shook his head, then turned around and said to Yu Jiang: "Sir, let's go into the study to talk."
After saying this, Jia Ke welcomed Yu Jiang into the study. The two of them took their seats in the study. Then the family members brought tea.
Jia Ke picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and moistened his throat, "Sir, did you see it just now? This is the student I want to teach, sir."
Yu Jiang frowned and said reluctantly: "I only said that your brother-in-law is a dandy and needs to be disciplined strictly. I didn't expect that it would be like this." It seemed that he knew it well.
Jia Ke said helplessly: "I'd better ask sir to worry about this matter. From now on, please discipline him strictly. Hit him when he needs to be beaten, and scold him when he needs to be scolded. He must change his character."
Yu Jiang thought for a while with an expressionless face, and finally said: "If you let me teach this young man in your house, I'm afraid I will really hit him. Please don't interfere, Madam."
Jia Ke is now only thinking about getting Qin Zhong back, and doesn't care about other things.
"As I said just now, sir, all you have to do is fight. As long as no one is killed, everything is up to you, sir."
When Jia Ke said this, he sighed again, "I don't ask for much fame in the future. I just want him to be like a man, and I will be satisfied."
Yu Jiang also saw the helplessness on Jia Ke's face, thinking that indeed every family has its own problems. Even for a powerful family like Wuyang Houfu, not everything goes well.
Yu Jiang said with a serious look: "If this is the case, then please rest assured, Mr. Hou. As long as he reads more books about Confucius and Mencius, he will naturally have a sense of righteousness in his heart, and his temperament will also change."
Jia Ke never believed in the so-called Haoran's righteousness. It was just a lie told by scholars. But this gentleman seemed to be a strict man, and he would have some restraints on Qin Zhong.
"In this case, I'll leave it to you. I don't know if your husband will live in the house or have another residence outside." Jia Ke asked about where Yu Jiang lives. After all, I invited my husband by myself and I couldn't let him sleep outside.
"Master Hou, I rented a room outside and can barely live in it." Yu Jiang did not answer directly, but told the current living situation.
Jia Ke understood it as soon as he heard it, which meant that the situation where he lived now was not good. But it was also like this in Jia Ke's mind. After all, living in the capital was not easy.
When he was on Earth, even when Du Fu lived in the capital, he didn't have the money to buy a house. What's more, he was a scholar from a poor family.
"It's inconvenient to live outside. Why don't you, sir, live in my Wuyanghou Mansion? From now on, there will naturally be people to take care of your food, clothing, housing and transportation. What do you think, sir?"
Yu Jiang thought for a moment, and realized that he would save a lot of money in the capital, which was a good thing. After all, his family was not wealthy, they only had dozens of acres of land. If his father had been sending money from other places,
, I think it will be time to sell the land at home in a few months.
Yu Jiang then stood up and said to Jia Ke, "In that case, I would like to thank you Lord Marquis."
"Sir, you don't have to be polite. Just stay in the mansion. Then there is your salary. I think I will give you thirty taels per month. I don't know what you think." Jia Ke did not give Yu Jiang too much salary.
Mr.’s price gave Yu Jiang a price of thirty taels of silver.
Yu Jiang, who looked like Jia Ke, handed over his hand and thanked him: "Thank you so much, Mr. Marquis. I will do my duty faithfully. I will definitely let my brother-in-law become a talented person."
Jia Ke stood up very happily and shouted to the outside: "Zhang Gui, come in quickly."
Zhang Gui outside heard Jia Ke's cry and came in quickly. "What are your orders, sir?"
"You should clean up the small courtyard next to the study now. Your husband will live here in the future." Jia Ke gave Zhang Gui instructions and waved his hand to him to do it quickly.
After listening to Jia Ke's instructions, Zhang Gui agreed and bowed out.
At this moment, someone outside said: "Uncle, grandma asked me to ask if the new gentleman wants to live in our house?"
"Come in and answer the question." Jia Ke knew it was Ruizhu's voice as soon as he heard it. Now there was only Ruizhu beside Qin Keqing. Lan Xiang was now pregnant and had been in her own hospital and hadn't come out for several months.
Qin Keqing's nanny helped Qin Keqing handle internal affairs at the beginning, but since she made her relationship with Jia Ke clear, she let go of all these matters. Now her main task is to control the spies and contact Qin Keqing's father to stay.
Those figures in the court helped Jia Ke.
Therefore, Ruizhu has once again become the most powerful person beside Qin Keqing, and now is the time for her to be proud of herself.
Ruizhu agreed crisply from outside, then opened the door and entered the study. After Ruizhu came in, he glanced around first, and looked carefully at Yu Jiang's face. Then he came to Jia Ke's side and bowed.
Give a salute.
"The man sitting next to you is the gentleman we invited - Yu Jiang. From now on, he will live in our house. The location is in the small courtyard next to the study. Ask your eldest grandma to send a servant, and then send
I am a maid who will take care of my husband's food and daily life in the future." Jia Ke thought that since Yu Jiang wants to live in the mansion, he must take good care of his life so that he can teach Qin Zhong without any worries.
Ruizhu promised to give Jia Ke and Yu Jiang a thousand blessings throughout her life, and then withdrew.
Yu Jiang stood up, bowed and said, "It's getting late today, Mr. Hou. I have to clean up when I get back. I will come to the Hou's Mansion early tomorrow morning."
Jia Ke also stood up and said, "Why don't you go back after drinking two drinks with me today? Why go back so early?"
"Master Marquis, I have a lot of things to do there. I will live in the mansion from now on, and we will have plenty of opportunities, so I won't bother you today." Yu Jiang is indeed the same. If something happens, he will go to Lao Mengming's mansion and report to him for the rest of his life.
.So he strongly declined Jia Ke’s offer to stay.
Jia Ke then personally sent him out of Wuyanghou Mansion. He watched him go away before returning to the mansion.
As soon as Jia Ke returned to the mansion, he saw Zhang Gui leading a few boys to the small courtyard next to him.
Jia Ke also followed him into the small courtyard. This small courtyard was originally a small house where Jia Ke lived when he was late for studying and did not return to the inner house. Everything inside was very luxuriously decorated and all the furniture was very complete.
Zhang Gui and others just cleaned it casually, and the house was as good as new. After a while, Ruizhu came over again with a little maid. They also held new mattresses and quilts in their hands, which seemed to be
Put it on for this gentleman.
Jia Ke stood there until they finished cleaning up and went in to look again and found nothing wrong before he came out.
After Jia Ke returned to the study, he took the greeting card given to him by the gentleman and read it carefully for a long time. He frowned and relaxed at times, not knowing what he was thinking.
Finally, Jia Ke suddenly shouted to the boy outside, "Go and call Liu Yu, I have something to give you."
The boy outside agreed and immediately ran away.
Jia Ke just sat and waited for a while when he heard Liu Yu's voice outside the study, "Master, I want to see you."
"come in."
When Liu Yu heard Jia Ke's agreement, she dared to enter the study. After that, she immediately saluted Jia Ke and then stood aside respectfully waiting for his instructions.
Jia Ke pondered for a moment before saying: "Mr. Meng Ming recommended a teacher to Qin Zhong today. I think this gentleman has a good temper. If he teaches Qin Zhong with all his heart, he can still become a talent."
Although Liu Yu has now experienced and practiced, he was confused by Jia Ke's words. He had no idea what Jia Ke meant.
Jia Ke looked helpless when he looked at Liu Yu. This Liu Yu was indeed loyal to him, but his temper was really dull.
Jia Ke then had to explain: "Although this gentleman seems okay, his specific origin is not very clear. And this gentleman wants to live in our house. If he is someone else's spy, won't our secrets be revealed?"
He saw it clearly."
Only now did Liu Yu understand what Jia Ke meant. He was worried that this gentleman wanted to check his background.
"Don't worry, uncle. I'll talk to Wei Kun right now and ask him to find out everything about this gentleman, so that I can rest assured."
Jia Ke nodded and handed Yu Jiang's name card to Liu Yu, "Take this as well. It has his hometown address on it. Then send someone to his hometown to see if there is this person.
Don’t be fooled by superficial phenomena.”
"Also, tell Wei Kun and ask him to arrange a few people in the mansion to watch over this gentleman. Even if he doesn't have any problems now, there's no guarantee that he won't have any problems in the future. It's better to be careful."
After listening to the instructions, Liu Yu stepped forward to take the name card and then left.
Although Jia Ke believed that Lao Mengming could not betray him, he was very wary of the methods of the emperor's secret guards. These people can be said to be pervasive. It is not surprising that this gentleman has contact with them. Since he is going to let this
Since Mr. Wang lives in his own house, it would be better to check it out.
When Jia Ke came out of the study and came to the courtyard, he saw that Ruizhu and the little maid had not left yet.
Ruizhu came out and Jia Ke came out and hurriedly saluted Jia Ke together with the little maid, "I've seen you, sir."
"Everything is done here, why don't you go back?"
Ruizhu saluted again and said: "The one next to me is the maid sent by my wife to the new husband. Sir, do you think it is suitable for her?"
