Seeing Zhao Rong wilting like an eggplant beaten by frost, the old gentleman felt a little strange, but then he remembered something and understood. It is estimated that this child has a young mind and wants to join in the fun, so he cares
Will I attend this grand banquet of their Zhao family?
After thinking about this clearly and seeing the child's appearance, the old man wondered in his heart, is this child planning to let him take him to this banquet? But it shouldn't be, this child is obviously from the Zhao family.
, and he is also the direct son of the head of the family, otherwise the family would not be willing to use these many ancient books and favorable conditions to trick him into teaching his children.
Although after he came, the head of the family also said that he just wanted the child to be influenced by his side, and there was no need to teach him anything. But at least, this child is also the son of the head of the Zhao family. If he
If I didn't take him to this banquet, he wouldn't be able to attend. In that case, the head of the Zhao family would be really strange. Thinking this in his heart, the old gentleman looked at Zhao Rong with a softer look.
But then, the old man's mind moved. Could it be that this child had some scheming to bring himself, the master, in front of everyone, and then increase his own worth? In a big family like the Zhao family, there are many intrigues.
Something must have happened. Although this kid looks young and has always been very dull, he might actually have such a scheming mind.
Thinking of this, the rare tenderness in the old gentleman's eyes disappeared. He glanced at Zhao Rong coldly, and then said: "Okay, I don't want to get involved in your Zhao family's affairs. As for that...
I will not attend the banquet either. If you want to go that day, just go directly."
This old gentleman obviously didn't know that Zhao Rong would not participate in these special activities of the Zhao family. And the head of the Zhao family had no intention of wanting him to show up in front of everyone. So he thought that this child would definitely participate.
And in order to avoid the kid's idea of dragging him out and using him as a shield, the old man vetoed any unrealistic ideas of this kid from the beginning.
But in disguise, this old gentleman provided Zhao Rong with a convenience. That is, on the day of the Fourth Elder's birthday banquet, Zhao Rong could make his own arrangements. If he wanted to come to the study, he could come to the study. If he didn't want to come, he could also take a day off.
.
If this was normal, Zhao Rong would have been so happy that he wanted to jump up. But now, the thoughts in his heart were so complicated that he didn't realize it at all. Although he listened to the old gentleman's words, he still
He really didn't know how to respond now, so he could only return to the desk obediently, holding the book in his hands, staring at the pages without any focus.
Over there, the old gentleman felt that he had accomplished everything and had nipped all possibilities in the cradle. He was satisfied and immersed himself in the world of restoring ancient books.
In fact, the old gentleman really didn't care whether Zhao Rong came to the study or not. But from the beginning, the head of the Zhao family had already told him that his son was quite naughty, so he had to be strict with him. Other intellectuals
You don't have to teach, but you must let Zhao Rong study in the study on time.
It can be said that all the thoughts of this old gentleman are exquisite and clear, and they are all used in academics, so he has never thought about how a father could make such an unbelievable request, but he has always implemented it in accordance with this request.
In the past, Zhao Rong also pretended to be sick and did not come to school, but soon, the news that he did not go to the study to study would be spread to the head of the Zhao family and his wife. Soon, Zhao Rong would be arrested,
He was severely scolded. So gradually, Zhao Rong's truancy disappeared. No matter what, he insisted on staying in the study every day until the designated time.
The meaning of what the old gentleman just said was actually telling Zhao Rong that he does not need to come to the study on the day of the fourth elder's birthday party. Even if he does not come, the old gentleman will not come to the study.
He would go to his family or his wife to complain. He originally thought that Zhao Rong would definitely attend such a feast. After all, the Zhao family even sent him an invitation for this feast. This shows that this matter is very important to the Zhao family.
, as the son of the Zhao family, how could Zhao Rong not participate?
The old man could only think that the head of the Zhao family had ignored this matter, or he thought that after knowing this matter, he would naturally ask for leave in disguise for Zhao Rong, so he naturally thought that Zhao Rong would not come that day.
Going to the school to attend the birthday banquet was approved by the head of the Zhao family.
No one would have thought that any father would not want his son to appear in front of others more, and would not want others to realize that he has such a son. No matter how much he dislikes this son, he probably doesn't like him.
It was impossible to kill him in front of everyone, but Zhao Rong was in such a situation in the Zhao family.
So it can be said that this old gentleman provided Zhao Rong with a convenience. At least he had a day of free time. But now, Zhao Rong has not realized how important it is that he has got this day of free time.
Instead, he was thinking complicatedly about how to solve the difficulties he encountered.
Since the invitation is no longer in the hands of the old gentleman, but in the hands of the housekeeper in the outer courtyard, Zhao Rong knows that it is completely impossible for him to take another look at the invitation. But now there are only two days left before the birthday banquet.
And I still don’t know when the two palace eldest brothers will need to send these two invitations, so I will have less time left for myself.
How to find the content written inside the invitation in such a short period of time was already an unsolvable problem for Zhao Rong. He tried hard to think of a solution, but the more he thought about it, the more trapped he became.
, there is simply no way to solve the problem at hand.
It can be said that Zhao Rong almost wanted to pull out all the hair on his head this afternoon, but he could not think of any way. In the end, he had no choice but to leave the study at that time. On the way, Zhao Rong finally struggled
, he could only think about discussing this matter with Xiao Tao after he went back. Maybe Xiao Tao could think of some solution.
But after Zhao Rong finished telling his story and the difficulties he encountered, he discovered that Xiao Tao had a dull face and no expression at all from just now.
