Chapter 743: Jinnian
Chapter 743: Jinnian
He didn't have any ideas of his own when it came to his studies. When he was in the study room, he would just nod whatever the teacher said.
After school, they finish the homework assigned by the teacher and consider it as their task. They never put forward their own ideas and opinions.
However, the ignorant Jinshi would sometimes make trouble for him and ask him to play with toys. Jinnian would patiently accompany Jinshi and have fun.
It's just like the happiness of killing time with a mobile phone in the previous life. In other words, it's just muddling through without striving for progress.
Hualei felt a little depressed.
Ever since the two children arrived in Xichang, I have been so busy with the government office that I have neglected my brothers in many aspects, especially Jinnian's academic performance.
However, in other aspects, Hualei thought that she was still trying her best to make up for the two children. Whether it was food or other expenses, she gave them the best she could.
However, looking at the somewhat thin Jinnian now, Hualei was worried that this would not work. It was possible that because of his inaccurate mental positioning and lack of broad vision, he would become a playboy who only cared about eating, drinking and having fun and had no ambition to make progress.
Or because of psychological problems, he became depressed and thought that his talent was not appreciated. Moreover, some of Jinnian's current behaviors are similar to depression.
Although, in the Great Sheng Dynasty, there were not many such diseases, and many people did not know about them. Perhaps, Rong Jin did not know about this either.
However, in the previous life, such symptoms were symptoms of mild depression. Moreover, there are still many such things. But don’t these happen more often to left-behind children?
It was in order to prevent such a situation from happening and because I didn't want my two children to be left behind, I insisted on bringing my two brothers with me despite the opposition of Lord Pei and Madam Pei.
How come Jinnian is still unhappy even though she is with him? Hualei repeatedly pondered over her words and actions since she received the letter of authorization.
At that time, after receiving the letter of appointment, I really wanted to come. However, considering Rong Jin's thoughts, the opinions of Lord Pei and Madam Pei, as well as practical problems, I was a little embarrassed.
When Rong Jin persuaded Lord Pei and agreed to come with him to Xichang Prefecture, he was actually cheering in his heart.
Therefore, when I went to the Ministry of Personnel to accept the letter of appointment, I was actually a little impatient. Therefore, my consideration of the child was also from my own perspective.
Of course, Jinshi was only two years old at the time, but in reality he was only about ten months old, so he had no ideas of his own, and Hualei simply ignored him because he was ignorant.
However, Jinnian was only five years old at the time and didn't know much about some things. But at that time, Jinnian was willing to come to Xichang with us.
So, I directly arranged for someone to come with the two brothers. I didn't even consider the problems that the sudden change of environment would bring to the children.
She had not thought so much about teaching resources and educational environment. She had always believed that her child was still young, and it would be a good time to return to the capital to consider it after her term of office was over.
At the beginning, after Jinnian arrived, he did suffer some hardships due to the climate and eating habits, but everything else was fine.
Later, as she was busy with her own affairs and the maids and servants took good care of her, she unknowingly let go. Now, Rong Jin suddenly proposed to send the two children back to Shangjing City, which made Hua Lei consider it from a different angle.
And the facts also proved that Rong Jin was right. So Hua Lei tactfully asked Jin Nian what he thought, whether he wanted to return to Shangjing City?
However, Jinnian, who was originally a little depressed, cheered and gave Hualei an affirmative answer, once again making Hualei understand whether she was wrong?
Moreover, Jinnian also told me that he wanted to take the entrance exam of the Imperial College in August. He was only six years old, but he wanted to take the entrance exam of the Imperial College without considering his own abilities.
Although I have a very poor understanding of myself, depression should be treatable, Hualei thought.
However, in a later conversation, Jinnian told himself that this was something Uncle Xiaoyuan had agreed on with him, and that Uncle Xiaoyuan was still waiting for him to return to the capital.
Jinnian's words reminded Hualei of something. At that time, she had just given birth to Jinshi for a few months, and it happened to be the Imperial College's enrollment open day.
Xiaoyuan and Rongjue took Jinnian and Zhenzhu's son Qilin to the Imperial College, and took them around the Ding class of the Imperial College.
Jinnian saw many children who were not much older than him taking the exam and was very curious. So Xiaoyuan told Jinnian to study hard.
When I grow up another two or three years, I can try to take the entrance examination for the Imperial College. I was admitted to the Imperial College when I was eight years old, so I want Jinnian to surpass me and get in before I am eight years old.
When he came back, the excited Jinnian did shout about how he wanted to surpass his uncle Xiaoyuan and take the entrance exam to the Imperial College, but it was only a momentary excitement.
Not long after, Jinnian stopped mentioning this matter. After all, he had not yet officially started to learn at that time.
So, when Jinnian talked about this now, Hualei naturally just laughed it off. However, it had been a long time since she had seen Jinnian so excited.
However, Hua Lei still believed that this was not the reason why Jinnian was depressed, and she wanted to know the real reason why Jinnian was unhappy.
So, he began to ask indirect questions from other aspects. He asked Jinnian if he had neglected him. If he had neglected him, he asked Jinnian to point it out so that he could correct it.
He also asked Jinnian if he was not used to the environment here. If he really was not used to it, he could send Jinnian back. After all, he was happy to be in Xichang Prefecture.
For Jinnian, it was indeed a waste of time, and he would not force him to stay in Xichang. After all, Rong Jin's story about the woodcutter accompanying the shepherd made him feel guilty.
However, both of these points were denied by Jinnian. So Hualei asked about Jinnian's academic situation again. However, this time, after hesitating for a long time, Jinnian told Hualei that he really didn't like the study environment here.
It turned out that since Jinnian came to Xichang Prefecture, Rong Jin had invited a local teacher to teach Jinnian, and when he was free, he would teach Jinnian riding and archery.
The master's knowledge is indeed good. However, as he is old, he is a bit rigid in some aspects. In the study room, it is often Jinnian, who is only five or six years old, studying alone with the master who is over fifty years old. It is a bit stressful.
