Chapter 73 Inquiry
That night, Sheng Hong had some social engagements because of a banquet from his colleagues, so he notified his family that he didn't have to wait for him. Therefore, everyone went back to their own houses and looked for their mothers.
However, because Sheng Changquan was entering a private school for the first time today, the old lady asked him for him from the eldest lady Wang and kept him in Shou'an Hall for a night.
Shou'an Hall.
After dinner, several people stayed in the old lady's room for the time being.
"Chang Quan, you went to the private school this time. What did Mr. Zhuang say?"
The old lady asked with a smile, ticking.
"grandmother!"
Before Sheng Changquan could speak, Sheng Minglan, who was standing beside him, opened her mouth.
"Grandmother, Zhuang scholar is so strict!"
Minglan leaned against the old lady, with a little "angry" on her face and deliberately complained: "Although I didn't go in the afternoon, I just came here this morning. Zhuang Xuezhao didn't know how strict he was to Brother Quan!"
"Oh? How do you say it?"
The old lady knew that Minglan did it on purpose, so she followed her wish and asked: "Didn't Mr. Zhuang treat everyone equally?"
"Uh...this..."
Minglan deliberately wrysm and said annoyedly: "This is true for Zhuang Jue!"
"but!"
"It is precisely because of the same treatment that it seems unfair!"
Minglan said honestly: "Isn't Brother Quan still young? Zhuang Xuehou actually added the second brother and the others' request to Brother Quan."
"Isn't this just let Brother Quan be the same as Brother Second Brother and the others? Why is Zhuang Xueyan not understanding Brother Quan at all!"
"It made Brother Quan almost beaten the board by the scholar today!"
"nonsense!"
The old lady said seriously: "Mr. Zhuang is the best way to make strict demands on Brother Quan!"
"You girl, you are talking nonsense!"
He pointed Minglan slightly, the old lady turned her head, looked at Sheng Changquan beside her, and asked, "Brother Quan, what do you think?"
"Tell me, is Mr. Zhuang supposed to treat you like this?"
Facing the old lady's question, Sheng Changquan naturally did not sing the opposite. What's more, Mr. Zhuang's approach was just right, and the standards were just right. Even if he deliberately strict today, Sheng Changquan knew that this was just because he deliberately rubbed his own sharpness and wanted to give himself a warning.
Since ancient times, teachers have treated smart students like this. First, they gave you a set of combination punches, which made you ignorant of the south, west and north. Then they used warm fire to slowly stew you, and finally made you convinced and become a good student who loves learning.
"Grandma, I know it's at least!"
Sheng Changquan smiled slightly, but did not speak for his sister who felt sorry for him, but said: "Zhuang Xuejiao's class is very good, and I don't know how many experiences I have in the imperial examination. Although Zhuang Xuejiao is currently mainly aimed at the second brother's provincial examination, I have benefited a lot and have some understanding of the future."
The old man looked at his three-year-old grandson talking kindly, as if he was a little adult, and he was very polite and every sentence was reasonable, and he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
When people get old, they inevitably like children, let alone old ladies are kind-hearted, so they become more and more like this.
"OK!"
Minglan is dissatisfied!
"Brother Quan, I kindly speak for you, you still have the same attitude!"
"Look at me next time, I will still feel sorry for you!"
Minglan deliberately got angry and made the old lady happy.
"Ah? Sister!"
Sheng Changquan also cooperated with Minglan's performance and deliberately begged for mercy: "Didn't you tell me to distinguish right from wrong?"
"Why do I listen to your truth, but you blame me?"
"you……"
“…”
The siblings were chattering, as if they were talking about crosstalk. One by one, one by one, made the old lady laugh.
...
But Linqi Pavilion on the other side is a different scene.
Because it has its own small kitchen, Lin Qinshuang is now taking her son and daughter to have a meal together.
"Brother Feng, I heard that Brother Quan also entered the private school today?"
Although there is a rule that you don’t eat or sleep, you don’t have to be so rigorously in more private and informal occasions. At least, there is no one in Linqi Pavilion now.
"Um!"
"Brother Quan went to school with us today."
Sheng Changfeng didn't know what his mother meant, but simply thought she wanted to know the situation in the mansion, so he just responded inadvertently.
"My grandma, this fish roast is good today!"
"Yeah, delicious!"
After praising a few casually, Sheng Changfeng immediately started a fierce battle with a plate of fish on the table!
Molan, who was beside her, was immediately anxious when she saw that her brother had not reached her mother's point!
Because of some words and things, as a mother, Lin Qinshuang does not want to express them directly, at least, she does not want to express them in front of her son.
Although Sheng Changfeng has various shortcomings, he actually has no bad intentions. His idea is that he is greedy for vanity and some utilitarianism, and is almost printed on the same mold as Sheng Hong. But one thing is that he does not have the means and perseverance like Sheng Hong.
Mo Lan is different. What she is very good at is the combination of Sheng Hong and Lin Qinshuang. She is scheming, has means, and has strong purpose. She is just that she has been with Lin Qinshuang for a long time. After being influenced by her, her mind is full of values like Lin Qinshuang. So some things that Lin Qinshuang can share with Mo Lan but will not be revealed in front of Sheng Changfeng.
"elder brother!"
Molan said directly: "My mother wants to know how Brother Quan performs in the private school?"
"Do you have the talent to read?"
Because the girls in the Sheng family only need to take Mr. Zhuang for half a day's course, Mo Lan is not very clear about some things.
"Oh, that's it!"
Sheng Changfeng put down the bowls and chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and thought for a while and said, "Brother Quan is naturally talented in studying!"
"The brothers in our Sheng family all have the talent for studying!"
Sheng Changfeng was full of confidence: "Although his second brother died of studying, he was quite capable and talented. Otherwise, he would not have passed the exam for the scholar's fame."
Although Sheng Changfeng failed the first child test and failed once, after working hard for a year, he successfully passed the county test and the government test the following year, and successfully obtained the qualification for a child. He even surpassed Sheng Changbai in the ranking.
This really made everyone in Lin Qinshuang's courtyard very happy. Of course, Mrs. Wang was angry and annoyed for a long time. In the end, Liu's mother persuaded her.
"Madam, don't be too angry!"
"There are even two tests over there, not to mention that there is another provincial examination!"
"So, Brother Feng is far from that!"
Chapter completed!
