Chapter 69: Secretly Wary
It was the first time Qiu Ruyi heard the word "killing", and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Qiu Ruolan was kind enough to popularize knowledge for her: "In "Customs and Customs", it was said: 'The chief officer and horse are fat, the viewer is fast, the rider is happy, and the gallop is endless, as for death', the horse killer is actually watching from the side of the road. ”
Qiu Ruyi was still a little unclear, so Qiu Ruolan explained carefully: "Zhou Yaru's stepmother is the roadside watcher. Whoever gives birth to a daughter does not teach carefully, not to mention morality, appearance, speech, and merit, the key is that the reputation outside is even more important. often mentions the girls of the family, 'dignified appearance and soft temperament', and it has also become a call, but Zhou Yaru can't afford it, and her appearance is not enough, the key is that she has a 'strange temperament, flying and domineering', such a woman, the future is worrying. ”
When Qiu Ruolan heard this, she agreed a lot in her heart, Zhou Yaru's temperament is indeed a dislike, if it weren't for the fact that she had a father who was an official and a stepmother who was good at maneuvering, who would care about her.
Qiu Ruolan continued: "Zhou Yaru has a bad temperament, if it is not her stepmother's, she is arrogant at home, and she has more face than her stepmother, but in this way, it seems that she is more and more ignorant, but she sets off all her stepmother's younger siblings to be praised by everyone. ”
"It's hard to be a stepmother, and she is strictly disciplined, others will say that she treats the daughter of the original partner harshly, and she is loose, and now she looks like this, and others say that she can't teach her daughter. In the end, it was Zhou Yaru himself who was delayed. Qiu Ruyi said sympathetically.
Qiu Ruolan sneered: "Most people in the world have the same opinion as my sister, each side plays fifty boards, and then the stepmother is still calmly her official wife, and her children are famous because of her sister's foil, and it will be much easier to marry as an official in the future." But what about Zhou Yaru, with her temperament, the road of marrying high is directly blocked by herself. In the future, she can only marry low, because of her reputation in her mother's family, her life in her mother-in-law's family will be difficult, and because she is indulged in arrogance, the relationship with her husband will not be easy to get along with, and she will suffer for the rest of her life in the future. This is also the inevitable result of her being killed by her stepmother. ”
Qiu Ruyi listened, although she faintly felt that something seemed wrong, but she also sincerely thought that what Qiu Ruolan said also made some sense.
Qiu Yuqing has been pampered by the Song family since she was a child, and no matter how much she has a heart, she will not think about Zhou Yaru's mother and daughter in this regard. Now that Qiu Ruolan said this, Qiu Ruyi also felt a little enlightened, and Zhou Yaru, who was in the game, was even more enlightened.
Although Qiu Yuqing is friendly with her, she uses her as a gunman everywhere, which makes her reputation worse and worse, and she even has some intention of aiding and abusing.
The two of them immediately saw each other, and they couldn't complain that Zhou Yaru immediately took Qiu Ruolan as her own sister, but she frowned coldly at Qiu Yuqing everywhere.
Qiu Ruyi finally solved the doubts in his heart during this time, and because of this, he realized that everything can't just look at the surface.
At this time, a girl came to invite, Qiu Ruolan raised her eyes and saw that Qiu Ruyi had an understanding, knowing that these words had an impact on Qiu Ruyi, she couldn't help but smile and said no more.
After dinner in the evening, Qiu Ruyi accompanied his mother to enjoy the moon and chatted, thinking of the word "killing", which was quite interesting, so he parroted Qiu Ruolan's words during the day.
Yu Shi smiled and sighed: "What is not to kill, in the eyes of outsiders, Mrs. Zhou is Zhou Yaru's mother, Zhou Yaru is not good, is her reputation good? There must be a daughter if there is a mother, people say that they are married, but it is not just to see how the daughter is, if she really has such a heart, it can be seen that she is short-sighted, who dares to ask her to teach her daughter by example? A family, especially in a family, does not mean that this child is not good, but other children show that they are good. In the eyes of outsiders, a home is a whole, and if one is not good, the whole is not good. Especially if there are many girls in the family, if a girl has a bad reputation, the other sisters should not think about the benefits. ”
Qiu Ru said meaningfully: "Zhou Yaru's reputation is not good, and it is always Mrs. Zhou's fault for her poor teaching." It's not her own birth, but it's still the daughter of the Yuan match, she wants to perform the side room ceremony, and if she wants to teach, it will be a little light, if it is from the concubine's room, it will be easier to discipline more. ”
Yu nodded and said: "It's not easy for a stepmother, but I can't complain about anyone, from the time she decided to be a stepmother, she should have understood that there would be this result." is a head lower than the yuan, if Zhou Yaru has a soft personality, she is perverse, she is afraid of wolves and tigers, and she does not dare to discipline herself, in the end, she is accused of 'killing', and she can't hold grievances, who let her be a step-room and want a good reputation, in the end, the two ends are not good. ”
Qiu Ruyi sighed: "It's just that Zhou Yaru is suffering in the end, her reputation is not good, and marrying someone in the future is also a problem." I used to always go toe-to-toe with Zhou Yaru, but now it seems that she is a pitiful person, and I won't bully her anymore. ”
Yu Shi couldn't help laughing and said: "You really heard that the wind is the rain, her father is the county lord, the emperor's daughter is not worried about getting married, and you don't need to sympathize with her here." Perhaps, she is sympathizing with you in the room, you two have the same reputation in the boudoir, but she was 'killed' by her stepmother, but you were 'killed' by your own mother. ”
Qiu Ruyi was stunned: "How can she compare with me? I am my mother's biological flesh and blood, and I am loved by my parents and brothers like jewels." She is at a loss in her heart to be noisy and domineering, so as to show that her existence and cannot be ignored. And when the daughter quarrels with others, she is all in charge, and because she is backed by her relatives, she has no scruples. Parents and relatives have not suffered any grievances in front of them, so they naturally respect themselves in everything, and they can't be cheapened by others, so as not to make their parents and relatives sad, which is a great unfilial piety. ”
When Yu Shi heard this, he smiled and said: "You mouth, whatever comes to your mouth, it's all your reason." After talking so much, my mouth is dry, so let's drink some tea and moisten my throat. ”
Qiu Ruyi smiled, took a sip of tea, his brain was clear, and he found that the light in the courtyard seemed to be dim, and he couldn't help but look up, but it was a trace of dark clouds that covered the bright moon.
Qiu Ruyi's heart suddenly sank: What Qiu Ruolan deliberately said to herself during the day was really just purely about things, not meant?
Or maybe I'm thinking too much. Only a fool would think about stirring up the relationship between other people's mothers and daughters, that is, there is a gap between himself and his mother, what good is it for her?
Qiu Ruolan is also the heart of the Tian family, and she loves her in every way, how did she learn these dirty things that are calculating, and she has no teacher?
And it is such an eight-sided exquisite mind, Qiu Ruyi thinks carefully about the girls she knows, who are generally pampered by their parents, no matter what their temperament is, most of them are simple and simple.
There are also those who are sleek, but most of them are born out of a lot of sisters, secretly competing for favor, but they are not as sophisticated as Qiu Ruolan.
Qiu Ruolan's temperament and ability really don't look like a girl who has been loved and pampered by her father since she was a child, and now she is loved by her mother and brother, maybe it is because her family was treated harshly by Qiu Zhao's old lady and the new wife, so she has created her current character, otherwise it is really as Qiu Yuqing said, she is so good at a young age, I am afraid that she will become a spirit.
Qiu Ruyi couldn't help but shudder, sure enough, it was autumn.
Qiu Ruyi looked at the few stars that occasionally shone in the night sky, and really admired Qiu Ruolan's wrist in her heart, but she instinctively felt that Qiu Ruolan was not a good stubble, and it would be better to stay away in the future.
Thinking like this, Qiu Ruyi suddenly felt a little lonely in his heart, and couldn't help sighing: "Yujuan has been away for three years, why haven't you come back, it's strange to miss her." ”
When Yu Shi heard this, he took a closer look at his daughter by the moonlight, and the smile in his eyes became rich, and he said with a smile: "You remember wrong, where there are three years, and it's only two years and a few months." ”
Qiu Ruyi smiled and said: "Humanity is not seen for a day, such as every three autumns, and today I really understand what it is like to live like a year." ”
"Don't say anything when you're young," Yu scolded softly, pointed to a bend of the moon in the sky, and said with a smile, "The moon is cloudy and sunny, and when it reappears today, you can see Yujuan." ”
Qiu Ruyi looked at the soft and radiant Xuanyue in the world, calculated in his heart, and said in surprise: "Auntie, they will come back for the Mid-Autumn Festival this year?" Besides, they didn't come back in previous years. ”
Yu said with a smile: "It is precisely because they did not come back in previous years that the old lady is more and more concerned about her granddaughter, this is not coming back this year, and besides, your Uncle Ming's term of office will expire next year, so he should come back early to do some activities, and make up for the shortcomings, so as not to be blind when he comes back." ”
Although Yu said so, she was like a mirror in her heart, knowing that Yujuan came back this time, not to fulfill her filial piety in front of her grandmother, but to go to the family affairs of the Lu Guogong Mansion, these are just the tricks used by Mrs. Qiu to be afraid of telling the truth.
Yu Shi thought for a while and said slowly: "I heard your father say a few days ago that the Lu Guogong Mansion intends to marry our Qiu family in order to repay the life-saving grace of the year, and her family is afraid that she is a little moved." ”
Qiu Ruyi's friendship with Lu Guogong Mansion to blackmail An Shicheng that day was naturally impossible to hide from Yu's family.
Yu was afraid that her daughter didn't know the depths, and was misunderstood by Lu Guoguo's mansion for her coercion and retribution, so she told her children a little about the year.
Although Qiu Ruyi didn't know that he had rejected his family's family affairs back then, he also roughly understood the so-called relationship between the two families.
Hearing my mother say this, I first praised the Lu Guogong Mansion for being quite benevolent and righteous, and forgot the preface because of wealth, and then pulled his fingers and counted, Qiu Ruyi couldn't help but sneer: "If it is to the little son of the Guogong Mansion, it is just a kiss, if it is to the eldest son of the country, but it is an old cow eating tender grass, Yujuan is one year younger than me, only fourteen years old, he is a twenty-year-old man, but he has a good calculation."
