When they were young, Zhao Rong and Xiao Tao still spent two happy years. Their relationship gradually grew and became much deeper. Compared with ordinary servants, Zhao Rong trusted Xiao Tao a lot. If you have any questions,
He is willing to talk to Xiao Tao and do anything with Xiao Tao.
But gradually, as the two of them grew up, Zhao Rong's reason for this was that as he got older, his parents paid more and more attention to him. His parents made great efforts to invite him.
A great scholar came to enlighten him, so Zhao Rong's time was suddenly occupied.
Moreover, when Zhao Rong was studying in the school, Xiao Tao did not accompany Zhao Rong. Instead, Zhao Rong and the great scholar were in class, and no one else was allowed to enter the school. This was mainly due to the request made by the great scholar. After all, the old man liked
Jing Jing hated having servants hanging around in front of him, so school time was really a torment for Zhao Rong.
He couldn't understand what the teacher said at all. Not to mention a room full of books, which looked like heavenly books to him, and the teacher with a gray beard often gave him, after a thick book
, I went to look at my own.
If Zhao Rong disobeys, makes some noise, or asks questions, which disturbs the teacher's interest in reading, then little Zhao Rong will be punished. And the great scholar's way of punishing people is also very special.
Especially. He would ask Zhao Rong to clean the study room he used the night before.
The old gentleman was a great Confucian who was proficient in writing and ink. He used a lot of pen and ink every night. And he himself was too lazy to clean up his study room, so every time Zhao Rong made a mistake, he had to obediently give it to the old man.
The husband went to clean up the study. Not only did he sort out the calligraphy and scrolls he had drawn, he also needed to carefully clean all the pen and ink he used.
These tasks, for little Zhao Rong, were somewhat interesting for the first time or two, but then they became numb. This work is really not that easy for a child to complete.
This should also be said that Zhao Rong has always had a lively personality, and he was not subject to any discipline when he was a child. Therefore, even if he was treated like this the day after tomorrow, his lively and agile temperament was still not wiped out.
Therefore, Zhao Rong did not change his temper with the old man, but Xiao Tao became quieter day by day. Originally, after Xiao Tao and Zhao Rong had been together for two years, the relationship between the two
Although the relationship is still between master and servant, the relationship is not that simple.
The two of them would talk and laugh in private, and Zhao Rong would even secretly tell Xiao Tao his inner thoughts, treating him as his friend.
But after Zhao Rong went to school, Xiao Tao was also led by the housekeeper to his wife and received training again. It was this training that made Xiao Tao become silent day by day.
, no longer like the past, playing lawlessly with Zhao Rong. He always remembers his responsibilities every day and carefully fulfills his duties as a servant.
Of course, Zhao Rong was aware of Xiao Tao's changes, but at that time, he was still busy dealing with the old gentleman, and he did not have the energy to take into account these changes in Xiao Tao.
And when Zhao Rong finally lost confidence in himself in his studies, he looked back and found that his small courtyard had also undergone earth-shaking changes. Originally, he could still feel a little at ease in the small courtyard, and gradually
The only sense of freedom I had was completely gone.
The most important manifestation is that that kind of agility has completely disappeared from Xiaotao's face. No matter what whispers she whispers to him, Xiaotao is listening by the side, but rarely reacts. And in private, she
The discussion usually reaches the mother very quickly.
Just because of the intimate words she said to Xiao Tao in private, Zhao Rong was called to punish her by her mother more than once.
As mentioned before, his father and mother have always been verbal but not hands-on in educating him. Whenever Zhao Rong makes any mistakes, his father and mother can take turns to come and reason with him, and they will definitely make him understand the rules that a person should abide by. Until
Only when Zhao Rong finally admitted his mistake and promised not to make it again in the future could the two of them stop preaching to him.
But unfortunately, Zhao Rong is very afraid of this kind of education method from his father and mother. Although they will not treat him like other brothers and sisters, Zhao Rong is afraid of his parents.
In fact, when Zhao Rong was lawless and running around the yard, he once took a peek at how his parents taught his brothers and sisters after they made mistakes.
After those siblings made mistakes, they would be scolded by their parents at least, and if serious, they would be beaten. At that time, Zhao Rong thought that his parents were special to him and pampered him very much, so he treated the offenders in another way.
Wrong him.
But gradually, Zhao Rong still envied his brothers and sisters for being treated like their parents. After his parents made mistakes, they did not scold him or even beat him. They did not even punish him to copy books or kneel before the Buddha.
Hall.
However, he felt that those punishments seemed to be the sincere actions of his parents, and when his parents made mistakes to him, they just kept preaching the truth. Every time at this time, Zhao Rong always felt a numb and cold feeling.
.
When he was a child, Zhao Rong once asked his grandmother about this matter, why he and his brothers and sisters were treated so differently. His grandmother always touched his head, looked at him with loving eyes, and comforted him softly.
Young Zhao Rong said, "That's the love and care your parents have for you. After all, you are their legitimate son. They won't punish you easily. They value you more."
Feeling the warm feeling from his grandmother, Zhao Rong felt relieved and nodded obediently. Yes, his parents are so special to him, it must be because they value him very much. After all, he is their only legitimate son.
.It must be because it is like this.
So after that, even though Zhao Rong felt that he had not made any mistakes, whenever his father and mother talked to him in a preaching tone, he realized that he must have done something wrong again, and he could only
Those who can accept their fate should quickly admit their mistakes.
And the only time Zhao Rong resisted in his life was because of Xiao Tao. (To be continued)
