Chapter 5135: The wish of the best mother-in-law 235
"Alas!" Lao Shi sighed again.
He didn't even know what he was going to take the test for. These books were more annoying than he thought, and the one he hated the most was that bastard scholar.
Let’s start with Mrs. Tong.
When she first married into the Tong family, she really wanted to live a good life and give birth to a son who was loved and cherished. She also had great hopes for Mr. Tong San.
But she really had no way to educate her son at that time. The son was in the care of the old lady at home, and his temper had been ruined a long time ago.
By the time the old lady of the Yu family returned to the west, Mr. Tong San's character had already been developed.
Mrs. Tong had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and work hard to create a world for her son.
In short, the money the family earns is enough for them to use for a lifetime, two lifetimes, or even lifetimes, as long as they don't develop the habit of spending money lavishly.
When it came to Lao Shi's generation, the old lady also thought about trying to train this child.
Everything in this world is of low quality, only reading is high.
The old lady knew a few words, but had never read a book. She didn't know much about the closed-door festival, so naturally she could only ask someone to teach her.
As for whether what she taught was good or bad, she really didn't know.
She could only care about progress and other things, but otherwise she was blind and could only be fooled by the teacher.
The most important thing is that at this time, as long as scholars can pass the exam, they can become officials. As a businessman, you can't spend much money to hire these people to teach your children in a down-to-earth manner.
At most, you can only hire a scholar who has repeatedly failed.
But these scholars are either here to make some money, or they are full of jealousy and hatred towards these unlearned upstarts.
It is really difficult to cross class in this era. The old lady lost her face for the sake of Lao Shi and begged Mr. Tong San to support a Juren teacher.
Previously, Lao Shi spent three days fishing and two days drying nets in class, which troubled many teachers. However, those teachers took Mrs. Tong's money. Although they were dissatisfied, they did not say anything too unpleasant.
This is probably what we have been used to hearing since childhood. Your child is not unsmart. He is quite smart. For example, here are some examples. However, he is smart, but he is unwilling to study hard, so his grades are not good.
Great.
Even if he used three points of his intelligence to study, his study would not be like this.
Ordinary people would have been deceived, but after hearing what the teacher said many times, Mrs. Tong realized that her grandson, like her son, had no talent in reading.
She also thinks it is normal. For example, in her own family, none of her father, brothers, brothers, and nephews can study seriously. If a child inherits her family's blood, it is normal for her to be unable to study.
Several teachers resigned one after another, and the old lady basically knew that her beloved grandson might not be able to progress academically.
It’s not that the old lady has never thought about letting her grandson do other things, but in this society, if you don’t study, it will be useless no matter how well you do other things.
The old lady finally decided that she had to give it a last try and ask a Juren teacher to take a final look. What if it worked?
This time when Mr. Tong came back, he brought this teacher with him. This teacher's surname was Lin. Lin Juren was almost fifty years old, but he still had dreams at this age.
In fact, he has not been with the Tong family for a long time. He thought he was half of Mrs. Tong's staff, but it turns out.
