It will not be difficult to win the national examination in ten years, and Langeer will only be 17 years old by then, so my second uncle must not encourage others to succeed."

"Boqian didn't deceive me with his words?"

Looking at Jia Zheng who was extremely surprised, Shi Zhongkui laughed and said, "My nephew can't guarantee anything else, but I still have some insights and experience in this matter of career."

Jia Zheng patted his forehead and said, "My nephew is the leader of the Six Yuan Dynasty. There is no scholar in the world who knows how to do business better than you."

"I don't dare, I don't dare," Shi Zhongkui became polite.

Then Jia Zheng really thought of Jia Baoyu.

Comparing it to Jia Lan who was praised by Shi Zhongkui, Jia Zheng suddenly felt that Jia Baoyu was a waste.

But thinking this way, I couldn't help but think about letting Jia Baoyu study with Shi Zhongkui.

Even if Baoyu doesn't want to learn the Four Books and Five Classics, it's better to just spend more time with Shi Zhongkui than to let him stay among his daughters all day long.

What's more, if you get Shi Zhongkui's favor and ask the emperor for a job as a casual official for Baoyu, even if there is no hope for the imperial examination in the future, it is better to have an official position than to be a white man.

"I will explain Lan'er's matter to Lan'er's mother and his grandmother when I get back. I am only allowed to study for three hours a day. Can Bo Qian do that?"

Shi Zhongkui nodded and thought for a few seconds that since he was Jialan's teacher and this kid really knew how to make progress, he might as well teach him some boxing and kicking skills to keep healthy.

Although Tai Chi and Wing Chun in modern society are no longer battlefield fighting skills, it is still no problem to practice them for ten or eight years to strengthen your body and deal with a few ordinary people.

"Second uncle, my nephew, in addition to being able to read, also teaches Lange a lot of ways to keep fit.

When he grows up, he will not be just a weak scholar with no strength. And taking my nephew as an example, having a strong body and bones is good for studying."

Jia Zheng had long heard from Jia Lian and Xue Pan that Shi Zhongkui smashed the solid wood table with one palm.

Of course, if anyone else had said these things to him, Jia Zheng would definitely have said that he was misleading his children, but Shi Zhongkui was the leader of the Six Yuan Dynasty, and no one in the world could compare with him in the imperial examination.

At this time, when I heard Shi Zhongkui comparing himself, I had no idea of ​​rejection.

However, it doesn't matter whether Jia Baoyu practices martial arts or not. The key is that he can always be in contact with Shi Zhongkui.

In addition, Shi Zhongkui had always treated Jia Baoyu with special eyes, which made Jia Zheng mistakenly think that he really thought Jia Baoyu was smart.

Somewhat embarrassedly, he asked, "My dear nephew, can I also give you a lesson, my precious brother?"

"One is a teacher, and the two are also teachers. Besides, Baoyu is smart, so my nephew really likes to be close to him."

After Shi Zhongkui finished speaking, his expression changed, and he said a little embarrassedly, "It's just that Baoyu is a romantic and pretty young man, and it's not good if he practices sweating every day.

And if there is a cold, my nephew cannot bear it."

"What are you talking about?" Jia Zheng had never expected Jia Baoyu to practice martial arts.

And thinking about the many servants and maids around Baoyu, if they can't take good care of the master, what's the use of these people?

Besides, Shi Boqian is Baoyu's cousin-in-law, so he will definitely take good care of him.

"It has been decided that from now on, on the first, fifth and twentieth day of every month, Baoyu and Lan'er will go to their nephew's home to take the exams. Even if these two children cannot study and become talented, if they can keep fit, they can be regarded as uncles worthy of their ancestors.

Already."

Shi Zhongkui understood that what Jia Zheng meant by being worthy of his ancestors was that he hoped that Jia Baoyu and Jia Lan could grow up safely.

Only in this way can you marry a wife and have more children.

This person has many children and grandchildren. To a large extent, he is indeed more motivated than studying and is more favored by his elders.

After all, if the son fails to live up to expectations, I hope he can put his hope in his grandson.

"Second uncle, please rest assured. Since Baoyu and Lan Geer are my nephew's cousins, how dare they not do their best."

After saying that, under Jia Zheng's disbelieving eyes, he picked up the lid of the tea bowl, clasped his hands together, and ground the tea lid into fine powder with his palms in just a dozen times.

"This, this,,,."

While Jia Zheng was shocked, he became even more convinced of Shi Zhongkui.

Even the two ancestors of the Jia family have never heard of them being able to do this.

He sighed and said, "My wise nephew is truly a god!"

At this time, Shi Zhongkui told the reason why Jia Lian was placed under house arrest by his side.

Upon hearing that there were 30,000 acres of newly opened farmland, not even Shi Zhongkui himself could keep a single acre of land.

Moreover, those lands were all divided up by princes, princesses, and officials of third rank or above. The dissatisfaction in Jia Zheng's heart immediately disappeared.

Then he opened his mouth to comfort Shi Zhongkui.

------

When Jia Zheng returned home, he immediately went to Jia Mu's house.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang, Li Wan, and Jia Baoyu were all there, Jia Zheng waved his hand and did not let Mrs. Wang, Sanchun, Lin Daiyu and other female family members leave.

Instead, people called Jia She, Jia Lian and Jia Lan.

Then in a somewhat excited tone, he recounted what happened before when Shi Zhongkui crushed the tea lid with his palm.

Jia Mu and others listened with shock and surprise on their faces, and then they spoke out Shi Zhongkui's praise and concern for Jia Lan.

Li Wan hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Old lady, sir, madam, please atone for your sins. My wife is so stupid that she almost harmed Lan'er."
