Zeng Jize was very satisfied with the fact that Xuan Yuemeng had not been to the concession in the past two days. He touched Xuan Yuemeng's head and said to Xuan Hongtao: "I treat Yuemeng and Siping the same. Both of them are my children. Please read the book W×∮ﷷΩ.ΩＱingKanShu．cC"

Xuan Hongtao was very moved. Without Zeng Jize, it can be said that Xuan Yuemeng and him were still nothing. Xuan Hongtao was just timid and ambitious, not stupid, and knew how to be grateful and said sincerely: "Jie Ze, I won't say much. I am one year older, so I will have this glass of wine first."

Xuan Hongtao was very happy today. He raised his neck and the cup was over!

Zeng Jize smiled, "Okay, then I can only sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman! Brother Hong Tao, you gave birth to a good son. I just worried that your son would be too smart and afraid that he would play with fire in the future."

Xuan Yuemeng sweated, I didn’t do anything either? Didn’t I just do some business with foreigners? “Uncle Zeng, don’t worry about me, I will be fine.”

Zeng Jize looked at Xuan Yuemeng and smirked, "If you can be fine, then it's not you. I'll let you avoid contact with foreigners. Have you listened? I'm at this age and I'm still careful when I'm in contact with foreigners. I told you that foreigners don't have many good things, but you just can't listen."

Xuan Yuemeng sweated again, and it was an old topic, but he had no choice. He could not tell Zeng Jize about his ability to control foreigners, right? Among the pioneers of the Westernization Affairs, even top figures like Zeng Jize did not regard foreigners as humans from the bottom of his heart. They only regarded foreigners as pure bandits, and wanted to understand bandits, but only wanted to buy some things for bandits and fight bandits.

I don’t know if this is considered a sorrow in culture or a sorrow in cognition. It seems that it is similar. If you want to do the Westernization Affairs, you have to have a deeper understanding first? What is the use of just knowing the old machines eliminated by foreigners?

Xuan Yuemeng: "I will be careful, let's talk about it. I just act as an interpreter for foreigners. I have not interfered in foreigners' affairs."

Zeng Jize: "You really think I don't know anything? You are a shareholder of Klinsmann Foreign Company, the entire Tianjin, Zhili, and even the entire Qing Dynasty knows that Zeng Jize's son-in-law is not only a child prodigy, but also a shareholder of the Demei Foreign Company. Even my old man knows it in Nanjing."

Xuan Yuemeng Khan. Is the degree of spreading this news the ancients? Fortunately, you don’t know that I am the only person in charge of Klinsmann’s foreign company! Otherwise, you might as well jump up?

Xuan Yuemeng said seriously: "A little bit of shares, and it was given to me by Timothy Li. Please read the book W÷ｗΩＷΩ．ΩＱingＫanＳhu．cC”

Seeing that Zeng Jize was a little unhappy, Xuan Hongtao quickly made things happen, "This child just likes to learn foreign languages, Yuemeng. Have you heard what your uncle said? Try to go to the concession as little as possible in the future. Tell me about Timothy Li, there is nothing special about translation, and don't always call you. I see that the foreign devil said that we are also saying good things."

Zeng Jize sighed, "I am not against him learning foreign literature. It's not that it's not good to have contact with Timothy Li. That foreigner is pretty good. I have come into contact with Yuemeng. There are indeed some things in foreigners that are better than our Qing Dynasty, but we cannot forget the root of being a human being. Yuemeng's foreign literature is powerful, so we can't let go of the way of a saint. I still hope that Yuemeng will learn the things passed down by our ancestors step by step."

Even Zeng Jize, who is as enlightened as he still believes that classical classics are more important than Western science. It can be seen that in this era, Westernization was only a superficial one. Because in the bones of these pioneers of Westernization, they did not truly realize the current gap between China and the world. This is the most terrifying and the most critical point.

Xuan Yuemeng has long felt a lot of feelings about these aspects. From the construction of the Tianjin Machinery Manufacturing Bureau, he could see that when buying foreign machines, he just wanted to know the usage, and it seemed that he could use them. No one was looking for principles, thinking about what principles these machines were made through, nor did he think about studying maintenance technology, and thinking about whether he could also copy them. It seemed that the foreign machines bought in China were just for one-time use.

Without a complete industrial chain, what's the use of buying someone's finished machines? Anyway, Xuan Yuemeng doesn't understand the ideas of the pioneers of the Westernization era. It seems that doing Westernization is a trendy sense. It's like wearing new clothes and hats, and what should be done in the bones? To put it bluntly, the Westernizationists and the diehards are just a line of separation. It's just that the Westernizationists see a little further, and this far is very limited.

Xuan Hongtao poured wine for Zeng Jize, "Yes, yes, Yuemeng, have you heard it? You should learn moral articles well! Try to come back from the exam for a scholar at the age of five, and also help your uncle Zeng to be angry."

Xuan Yuemeng was sweating proficiently. He was five years old. Can you really think about it? Xuan Yuemeng knew what it was like to take the scholar. He had to take the Zhongxian Academy first, and then he had to pass the prefecture and college entrance examination, county examination, government examination, and college entrance examination. Only after passing these three levels, he was a scholar. No matter which level is difficult, he would be sad to pass the modern college entrance examination! To put it bluntly, the ancient imperial examination was almost the same from the first level to the last level. As long as he could pass one level, it would be like he was directly advancing to the top 16 of the World Cup. Every game was hard, and every game was knockout. Therefore, there were often young top scorers in his twenties, and there were also many children in his seventies or eighties!

The decision to take the imperial examination is family financial resources. If you can reach the provincial examination level, there is no proletariat. Xuan Yuemeng's financial resources are definitely not a problem. However, Xuan Yuemeng himself knows how many levels he has. Learning foreign languages ​​and learning ancient Chinese are definitely two different concepts. Just like asking him to take the Tsinghua University and Peking University in modern times, he needs to have a talent for studying, not just working hard. Learning languages ​​is similar to playing. The easier it is, the easier it is, the easier it is. Xuan Yuemeng's personality is only suitable for playing.

In addition to being suitable for learning foreign languages, Xuan Yuemeng is also suitable for learning martial arts. Learning martial arts is half of each talent and hard work. Xuan Yuemeng is also quite suitable. The key is whether his talent is high or not. Learning ancient Chinese is not a matter of talent. It requires both high talent and hard work! No matter which era, those who can pass the top scorer will be genius and powerful.

Anyway, Xuan Yuemeng used to watch TV in modern times, and often saw some top-ranked officials in TV series who played like a silly master in TV series. He did not agree with it. He could pass the top-ranked and a high-ranking official. How could he be a silly master? The feudal imperial examination system did imprison the thoughts of most people, but one who could really break out of the examinations was once counted. Juepi was all fierce! Because the state regime was maintained by these people.

Zeng Jize's eyes lit up, "Brother Hong Tao really thinks that?"

Xuan Hongtao was stunned, wondering what Zeng Jize said? "Hmm?"

Zeng Jize smiled and said, "Didn't you just say that Yuemeng came back from taking the exam for a scholar at the age of five?"

Xuan Hongtao said oh, and couldn't help but feel funny. He just said casually, "Someone can get a scholar at the age of five? He is not as tall as a table at the age of five, so he has to write on a chair, right?"

Xuan Yuemeng is so angry that he really doesn’t mention any pot, about relying on the imperial examination. Zeng Jize mentioned it before, but today Xuan Hongtao took the initiative to mention it again while he was happy, which was exactly what Zeng Jize thought.

Zeng Jize touched Xuan Yuemeng's forehead, "Yuemeng, your father's meaning is the same as mine. If you can come back from a scholar at the age of five, your grandfather will no longer care about your love for playing with foreigners. If you fail the exam, Uncle Zeng will quit this marriage with you! At that time, you can play whatever you like with foreigners, and Uncle Zeng will not be able to take care of you."

Xuan Yuemeng sweats a lot, when has it been? He still plays a break-in? He retreats, I'm afraid of you. Your daughter is pretty, but when he was a child, it doesn't mean he is beautiful in the future! You are so rare for the five-year-old yellow-haired girl? Besides, based on my invincible temperament in the universe and the appearance of Yushu, how many women will rush over and knock me down? I still care about your daughter one more, and will you lose one less?

Xuan Hongtao's tears were about to fall, and his eyes suddenly turned red. "Oh, Brother Ji Ze, I just said casually, don't make things difficult for the child. Yuemeng is still young, how could he pass the exam for a scholar at the age of five? Such a big thing as breaking up the engagement. How can he play?"

Zeng Jize nodded, "Five years old is younger, 10 years old, right? Yuemeng is so smart, now he is much smarter than an average ten-year-old child. When he is ten years old, he will be over twenty years old. I will be a ten-year-old scholar. For Yuemeng, as long as he spends half an hour every day to study articles, he will become a scholar casually. What about it? Brother Hong Tao, we have a decision?"

Xuan Hongtao also knew that Zeng Jize wanted Xuan Yuemeng to calm down and devote all his energy to studying! He said with a bitter face: "Brother Jize, do you really want Yuemeng to become a scholar at the age of ten? Otherwise, you will break off the engagement?"

Zeng Jize smiled and said, "We are all seven-foot men. How can we change what we said? Brother Hong Tao, don't you want Yue Meng to become a talent?"

Xuan Hongtao is a scholar who has been a scholar. Of course, he knows the pain of the imperial examination. He feels sorry for his son and sighs, "Yuemeng, have you heard what your great uncle said? Don't take it seriously. I tell you, if your great uncle quits us, my father can tell you that no one of the officials in the Qing Dynasty will consider you! When you grow up, you can only find a village girl."

Xuan Yuemeng sweats so hard, isn't it?

Zeng Jize laughed and said, "Brother Hong Tao's words are good. If my Zeng family quits you, no official dares to marry his daughter to Yuemeng. Even your brother Hong Tao will find it difficult to continue in the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty. Even if they ignore the reputation of my Zeng family, they still have to take care of my father's disciples all over the world. It hurts the Zeng family's face, but one or two people."
