Volume B Chapter 89 Take a step to speak (an extra update for the leader of the Qiankun Zhengqi Alliance!)
Seemingly sensing the probing look in Feng Ziying's eyes, Li Wan blushed slightly, but quickly summoned up the courage to ask, "Brother Keng, can you lend me a moment to speak?"
Feng Ziying was even more surprised. What was this pretty widow doing? This was outside Sanqing Pavilion, in public.
But I have to say that this pretty widow is really well-kept. Her clothes are of appropriate shades, fresh and pleasant, and make people forget about vulgarity.
Think about it, Jia Lan was only five or six years old. She was probably fourteen or fifteen when she married Jia Zhu. She gave birth to Jia Lan when she was fifteen or sixteen. Then Jia Zhu died of illness. After all, this Li
Wan is only twenty-one or twelve years old. In terms of age, he is only two or three years older than Wang Xifeng.
Since someone proposed it, Feng Ziying naturally couldn't refuse, and he didn't believe that this woman could do anything.
In the book "Dream of Red Mansions", it is said that her heart is like a dead tree, but looking at her now, it doesn't look like she is so depressed and her heart is still.
Feng Ziying nodded, and Li Wan took a few steps outside. In fact, he was only less than ten steps away from the sisters, just a little distance away.
Although Lin Yatou and Tanchun were a little surprised that Sister-in-law Zhu would go to Brother Feng to talk about something, but considering that Brother Feng now has a great reputation for his abilities outside, Brother Lian and Sister-in-law Lian would also take the initiative to talk to him.
Things will be relieved.
"Brother Keng, actually I just want to ask my brother Lan about his studies. My brother Lan is six years old this year, only four years younger than his second uncle Bao. Last year, I asked him to start reading.
Now if the government wants to invite a private school teacher to open a clan school, I also intend to let Lange'er study. This is why I want to ask if it is appropriate for Langeer to study in this clan school. In the future, I want Lan Geer to study in this clan school.
My brother is going to take the exam to become a scholar."
Li Wan's words made Feng Ziying suddenly realize that this pretty widow was thinking about her own son. Apparently she was not optimistic about her brother-in-law's studies at this time, and was even a little worried about ethnic studies.
"Sister-in-law Zhu, maybe you should ask Uncle Zheng Shi about this matter. I think that whether it is a school or a private school teacher, these are not the most important things. The key is to run a school and have a private school teacher.
Come here, you still have to follow the rules and disciplines in this study. The key lies in the individual. Of course, I also admit that this style of study is very important, so I have to make up my mind to let the school teachers strictly control this school...
…”
Li Wan understood. It seemed that Brother Keng didn't have much confidence in his brother-in-law's studying. He just insisted that his father-in-law should take studying seriously. But if his brother-in-law really didn't want to study, his father-in-law could still control him.
?My mother-in-law and ancestors are still standing behind.
Sighing softly, Li Wan casually wiped the black hair around his ears, a look of sadness flashed across his face, "I'm afraid that the school teacher won't be able to control Uncle Bao, and everyone will end up..."
Li Wan didn't say any more, but the meaning was very clear. Feng Ziying was also helpless. This was something she couldn't control. Even if Jia Lan was a scholar, he would have to be thirteen or fourteen years old to go to the academy.
, even if you can come forward and help, at least you must be of your own age.
"Sister-in-law Zhu, I think Lan Ge'er is still too young now, so there is no need to be too harsh. I mean, you don't have to read a lot, but you must follow the rules, cultivate his temperament and habits, and cultivate his temperament.
To form a good habit, as for studying, there is still time in the future. It is actually too late to wait until he is ** years old to study. The key is to form good habits and not to pamper and indulge. This will be of great benefit to him for the rest of his life.
…”
Looking at Feng Ziying's sincere face and frank words, Li Wan was also moved in his heart. What the other party said was very reasonable. He still has a long time to study, but if his temper is spoiled, it will be hopeless, just like his brother-in-law. Of course
The other party didn't say this, so naturally I wouldn't point it out.
Seeing Li Wan nodding, Feng Ziying added: "Also, Lan Ge'er's body bones are still the most important. He is too young now, so he still needs to be taken care of. You can let him run and walk more every day, and he can eat breakfast early in the morning.
Get up and do some exercise. Go to bed early at night and don't stay up late. He is not suitable for his age now..."
What he said made Li Wan nod his head repeatedly, and a warmth flowed in his heart.
No wonder the Feng family man is so famous outside. Not only is he good at both civil and military skills, but he is also so good at dealing with people. How can he not be liked by others?
I heard that the father-in-law and mother-in-law intended to marry the third girl to the Feng family, but both parties are too young now, so the conclusion has not been finalized. However, in Li Wan's view, although the third girl is very good, it is a pity that she lacks some background.
This is still an insurmountable limit in the minds of many people, and the Jia family is not a very famous family now. Wu Xun's origin is far less popular than it was forty or fifty years ago, and the entire Jia family is not.
A decent pillar of support.
Although the Feng family also came from a martial arts background, if the eldest son of the Feng family passed the examination, he would be completely different. I am afraid that this marriage would be difficult.
Thinking of this, Li Wan could only feel a little sorry for his sister-in-law deep in his heart.
If the other party fails to win the Qiu Wei next year, we can take this opportunity to let the three girls have a good match. However, if they win, I am afraid that the Feng family will not agree, and we cannot let the young lady from the Rongguo family serve as a wife.
Concubine?
It seemed a little unkind to just hope that someone would fail in the scientific examination, and Li Wan felt a little ashamed in his heart.
Seeing the complex changes in the pretty widow's expression, Feng Ziying thought that the other party was worried about her Jia Lan, so she added: "If Brother Lan has some reading skills in the future, I can also say hello to the academy for Brother Lan."
, if we can’t find a suitable recommender, I can also find a suitable recommender for Brother Lang.”
Upon hearing this, Li Wan was so grateful that his entire facial expression became vivid. He wanted to say thank you, but felt that it was a bit too simple. This was not a big job.
Although that was six or seven years later, with the respect of the other party, he will not deny what he said. If he can get help from the other party in the future and let Lang Geer go to Qingtan Academy, he will pass the exam.
Both the candidates and the Jinshi have greatly increased their hopes.
Li Wan doesn't expect his son to be very successful. His father has been admitted as a scholar. As long as Lan Geer can reach a higher level and pass the exam, that is her biggest wish.
Seeing Li Wan's expression, Feng Ziying knew what he meant and quickly waved her hand: "Sister-in-law Zhu, you don't have to be like this, we are all members of the family. The old lady also said that she has hugged me, so what difference do we have? As long as we can help each other.
If you get it, I will definitely help you."
When the other party said this, Li Wan felt extremely grateful. At the same time, he also knew that saying any more words of thanks would be a bit false. He was just thinking about how to repay this kindness in the future.
Given the current situation of the Feng family, they are probably even better off than the Jia family is now. It would seem tacky to give some ordinary gold, silver or other things without space, and it might make people unhappy, so I need to think about it carefully.
.
"If you don't say thank you for your great kindness, then I will thank Brother Keng on behalf of Brother Lan." Li Wan said happily.
Feng Ziying quickly returned the gift and then walked over with the other party.
Although Lin Yatou and Tan Yatou were standing at the gate of Sanqing Pavilion, their eyes were always looking over here. They were also very interested in what Sister-in-law Zhu and Brother Feng were talking about, but they were too knowledgeable to ask any questions.
, these two little girls still have a little bit of humanity and sophistication.
Wang Xifeng was a little surprised to see Feng Ziying also arriving at Sanqing Pavilion, but when she saw that Jia Lian had not followed him back, she guessed that Jia Lian was discussing business with Wei Ruolan and Han Qi, so she hesitated for a moment and came over.
, "Brother Keng, let me take a step to speak."
Another step to speak!
Feng Ziying has a headache. All the bad things in the Jia family are all made by herself. Could it be that she thinks she is the patriarch of the Jia family? That should be Jia Zhen.
Good things don't come to him, but bad things come to him for advice, but he can't refuse.
"Second sister-in-law, have you thought about it?" Feng Ziying knew what the other party was worried about.
"Brother Keng, you have created a difficult problem for my sister-in-law." Since they are all working together to make a living, Wang Xifeng did not have so many polite words and said with a smile: "It's just the two of us here, sister-in-law."
I won’t hide it from you, the government is facing difficulties, how about borrowing some money from your Feng family? The interest will be calculated according to the current rules. Don’t think too much of your sister-in-law. She will also think of any good things that happen to her in the future.
you."
"Second sister-in-law, I'm afraid you shouldn't talk to me about borrowing money, right? Where do I have the final say? You should discuss it with my mother and aunt."
Feng Ziying had anticipated this situation a long time ago, and she didn't want the Jia family's father-in-law to get involved. She wanted to plan the matter on her own and enjoy the benefits alone. But if she had enough money to back it up, Sister Feng was really capable.
good idea.
And this is nominally borrowing money, which is to take advantage of the Feng family. Where can I borrow money? As long as you pay enough interest, with the face of Mistress Lian, three to fifty thousand taels of silver is not a problem at all.
The idea of asking yourself is nothing more than thinking about borrowing money at ordinary interest rates, that is, low interest rates. Who doesn't know the trick here?
"Brother Keng, I know that your mother doesn't care much about these things in your family. You were raised by your aunt, and your aunt loves you the most. Your aunt is also in charge of the money in your house, and your family is also
Unlike our Jia Mansion, in the final analysis, it belongs to you alone, so you don’t have so many scruples. If you go and talk to your aunt, won’t she still allow it?”
Wang Xifeng's understanding of the Feng family still surprised Feng Ziying. This woman actually knew her family so well?
