When Zhou Sheng's father said this, Zhou Sheng's mother immediately reacted. It seemed that he had indeed heard someone say that scholars love face most. They care about others. In the end, they are like this. They can't even say a bad word to others outside.
, none of them would say it easily, and it seemed that they really wanted to understand this. He nodded hurriedly, and continued to stare at his man with wide eyes, hoping that he could say the words that a true younger son would not abandon them.
Seeing that after hearing what he said, his mother-in-law was still staring at Zhou Sheng's father with wide eyes, she knew that he didn't understand the meaning of her words at all, so she could only patiently explain to him carefully.
I just said that what scholars love most is their reputation, that is, they cherish themselves the most.
If they get a bad reputation, even if the scholar has real talent and knowledge, even if he passes the exam, he will be looked down upon by others. Even because of, well, poor condition, he may not be the one who passed the exam.
There is no point in trying to be fair, there are many people who will pull him down.
Zhou Sheng's mother listened to her man's words with great interest. At this moment, she felt that her man was not so useless. Anyway, Zhou Sheng's mother felt that the words he said were very reasonable, and these
Although he could understand every sentence, they were connected together. She didn't know what they meant. They must be some very profound words. But she was a little anxious. She didn't know why her husband said so many words. He just wanted to
Do you know why the husband is so sure that his youngest son will not abandon them?
Zhou Sheng's father was helpless. He had said it so clearly. Why didn't this woman understand? She still looked like she was waiting for her answer. There was no other way. Zhou Sheng's father could only say it bluntly. If the second son got there,
When the time comes, if we don't care if a person goes to get promoted and make a fortune, there will be people who will poke him in the back. Without us taking action, there will be many scholars who will pull him down. By then, he will be ruined and his life will be worse than before.
It's still miserable now.
As a father, Zhou Sheng's father was of course unwilling to speak so directly about his son. He always felt that it would be a harm to his son, but he had no choice but to understand the meaning of his words.
The subtext can only be understood by talking to him in the most direct way. Fortunately, this time, Zhou Sheng's mother finally understood the meaning of his words.
It turns out that scholars still have such a chance, it turns out that they have such a big handle, and they are not just one person, but all scholars have such handle. Thinking about these, Zhou Sheng's mother was so happy that she was completely happy now.
Don't worry.
In addition, if his younger son can get ahead in school, he will definitely be able to get some glory, otherwise his son's good life will come to an end.
Thinking of this, he directly asked what was in his mind. After getting a positive answer from his man, the mother who was born could simply describe him as elated. She was so happy. Gao Sheng said it was so good, so I said
Well, the second son provided for her to study, and the family paid so much, how could he
You have to repay our Ambassador Zhang. If we let him face east, he will face west. If we let him catch dogs, he won't dare to chase chickens. If he really dares to disobey me, I will file a complaint with him at the Yamen and ask him to go directly to the Yamen.
After being imprisoned, he would stop thinking about fame and all, and still want to be an official. Haha, at that time, this kid didn't even have to listen to me.
Now Zhou Sheng's mother really thinks that it is a good thing for Zhou Sheng to go to school. After all, if he is allowed to be an apprentice, who knows how many years this apprentice will last? After he becomes an apprentice, whether this boy will still be able to become an apprentice.
He had to hand over the wages he earned, so he could cry, make a fuss, and hang himself to force his younger son to hand over the wages. But after all, if he made too much trouble to save his face, his neighbors would inevitably say something. Then he would lose his face.
Are you having a hard time getting through it?
But it's different now. After Xiao Er actually passed the exam, he felt like he was wearing shackles and didn't dare to resist himself at all. So when he was completely able to control his son, he didn't mind letting him
Keep reading. Just thinking of the one hundred and fifty taels of silver, Zhou Sheng's mother still felt distressed, stomachache, and pain everywhere. She could only comfort herself to think long-term, to take a longer view, to see the bigger picture.
For that goal, I’d better endure it now.
Seeing that he had finally comforted Zhou Sheng's mother, Zhou Sheng's father breathed a long sigh of relief. He could rest anyway.
The two people in the room were satisfied and agreed to go straight to rest. What they didn't know was that there was actually a shadow at the door just now.
After the lights in Zhou Sheng's parents' room went out, the stiff body at the door slowly turned around and walked back to his room listlessly.
That figure happened to be Zhou Sheng. The reason why he came to see her parents so late was mainly because her husband said it was okay and the private school would have a holiday tomorrow. She thought that she had been away from home for so many days and concentrated on studying, and her family was spending money.
The very fact of sending him to school moved him very much, so on a rare holiday, she wanted to tell her parents that if there was any work at home, she could take advantage of this time to get up early tomorrow and do the work at home.
It's just that Zhou Sheng didn't expect that when he arrived at his parents' door, he didn't knock on the door. He heard his mother laughing in the room. When she said those words, Zhou Sheng froze. He didn't go back when he entered the door.
No, in fact, his heart went blank and he didn't know how to describe his feelings at that time.
Zhou Sheng has always been very touched by the fact that he can go to a private school to study. Of course, an old gentleman in the private school mentioned old things to him. While appreciating Zhou Sheng's efforts, he also mentioned the person he once taught.
Students with special characteristics can indeed leave an indelible impression on their husbands, and Brother Zhou Sheng happens to be one of them.
Through that conversation, Zhou Sheng learned that the eldest brother from home had also gone to a private school when he was young. However, after only two days, the eldest brother was no longer willing to go to the private school, even if his husband went to Zhou Sheng's home.
When asked about the matter, the eldest brother was also crying and yelling on the ground, saying that he was cheating and was unwilling to continue studying in a private school. This incident left an indelible impression on the gentleman's mind.
