Chapter 30: Quotations from the Scriptures
Mrs. Yuan has prepared several pavilions for viewing flowers, the Peony Pavilion and the Orchid Pavilion, which are all places where the ladies with higher positions sit, and the younger ones and those with lower ranks are not in these two places. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Mrs. Chen was a little unhappy, why did Mrs. Deng come over, they all had to be good to sit and talk.
She was about to speak, when she heard Dong Ruyi whisper: "Originally, my father was also going to call me Shu, but my grandmother said that I was a wild child that my father kindly picked up, and I am not worthy of the same name as her granddaughter, so my father is not allowed to give me the name of Shu, so my father let me call me Ru." ”
Dong Ruyi didn't speak loudly, but it was very clear, everyone could hear it really, and there was a trace of incomprehension and a trace of grievance in her last voice.
All the ladies present were stunned, no one would ever talk about the affairs of the back house in the open. If it is really moved to the bright side like this, then the face of the Dong family will no longer need to be wanted.
Mrs. Chen secretly shouted in her heart, and then hugged Dong Ruyi distressedly and said, "Sister Ru is not sad, grandmother loves you." As he spoke, he took a candy for Dong Ruyi.
Dong Ruyi took the candy and smiled sweetly and stuffed it into his mouth.
Mrs. Yuan was too shocked, and said in pain: "How can she care about this with a child, how will this child deal with herself in the future?"
Mrs. Yuan's maiden family and the Dong family were at odds quickly, and Mrs. Yuan couldn't get used to Dong Feng's family when she was in the boudoir, and now she is not afraid of her.
Mrs. Deng knew that she was in trouble, so she hurriedly looked at Dong Ruyi and said, "Say, who taught you this?"
Everyone else looked at Mrs. Chen, how could a three-year-old child say such a thing, and as she spoke, the fire burned to Mrs. Chen.
Dong Ruyi finished eating the candy in his mouth and said, "You give me that, and I'll tell you." ”
Mrs. Deng asked the girl next to her to take the candy to Dong Ruyi.
Dong Ruyi reached out and took one in his hand, and said, "This is not what people taught me to say, it was said by my grandmother's mother, Qian, who rewarded me with my housekeeper." She also said that it was my destiny that I could live, and that my grandmother wished that our family would die. ”
Mrs. Chen hurriedly pulled Dong Ruyi and said, "You've never said anything like that, damn slave? As he spoke, he wiped away his tears.
Mrs. Deng was completely stupid.
Dong Ruyi took out his handkerchief, wiped Mrs. Chen's tears, and persuaded while wiping: "Grandmother, don't be sad, Mother Qian said that grandmother is not my father's mother, nor is it my grandmother." If Sister Ru is not sad anymore, you should not be sad anymore, okay?"
Everyone looked at these two people, such a sensible child, that Dong Feng was ruthless and stupid enough.
Mrs. Deng just wanted to speak for the Feng family and had nothing to say, these words would definitely not be taught in a day or two for a three-year-old child.
Because of the smashing of the Dong family's ancestral hall, Jiang Ning's wife circle knew when the Dong family's third room went to the Chen family, that is, the Chen family wanted to teach her, and it was impossible for a three-year-old child to deal with it properly in such a short time.
If it was taught in Dong's family, then it could only be affirmed that Feng was a fool, and such a thing could happen under his nose.
A cold voice came, "I heard that you are reading the Tao of Confucius and Mencius with your grandfather, do you know what it means to respect your elders?
The person who spoke was Mrs. Zhang, the wife of the Jiangning Metropolitan Transit Envoy, and she was the cousin of Dong Fengshi, the second wife of the Dong family.
Mrs. Zhang originally just wanted to come over to say hello to Mrs. An and Mrs. Yuan, but she happened to hear those words.
She participated in this flower viewing party this time to say goodbye to her youngest daughter, and naturally no one was allowed to say such rights and wrongs.
She is also a member of the Feng family, and saying that she is a cousin will naturally affect her reputation.
Dong Ruyi hid back in fear, looked up secretly, and said: "The way of Confucius and Mencius that Madame said, but the old and the old, the young and the young?"
Mrs. Zhang choked on the question, but Mrs. An smiled.
Dong Ruyi said again: "Isn't it? The lady said that however, people do not have only their own relatives, nor only their sons, so that the old have their ends, the strong have their usefulness, the young have their growth, and the widows, lonely and disabled people can all be supported. Is it?"
Mrs. Zhang was really asked, if you want to say that the poetry is the capital of the people present, but when it comes to quoting scriptures, they are just women in the back house, and they don't take the top prize, who will have nothing to learn this.
When I was young, I learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and when I was old, I had to start learning to be a housekeeper and learn embroidery.
Where can they receive such words?
For a while, several other ladies were also stunned.
Dong Ruyi looked at the embarrassed crowd and said, "Could it be that Sister Ru is wrong again?
Dong Ruyi smiled in his heart, "The Holy Ancestor Confucius and the Sub-Sage Mencius are gone, if they really let them hear that she used their scriptures to choke the women in the back house, they would probably be angry to death." ”
Mrs. An, who was sitting on the side and had not opened her mouth, said with a smile: "This is still a talented girl, and she can also quote scriptures." ”
Dong Ruyi said this on purpose, anyway, she was only three years old, and others didn't know if she really deliberately quoted Kong Meng's words to choke Mrs. Zhang, or if she really didn't understand the question, after all, she was young.
Miss Zhang Wu, who was beside Mrs. Zhang, saw that Dong Ruyi was disrespectful to Mrs. Zhang, her face showed disgust, and she stepped forward and said: "What kind of woman are you, you are so unreasonable, don't you know what it means to respect the elders, and what it means for the father to call the son to die, and the son has to die?"
Mrs. Zhang glanced at her daughter beside her, and Miss Zhang Wu closed her mouth and stood behind her obediently.
Dong Ruyi secretly said stupidly in his heart, and then pretended not to understand and asked, "Grandmother, do you know what this young lady means?"
Mrs. Chen said: "My grandmother is just a woman in the back house, I don't understand this, if you want to know, go back and ask your grandfather." ”
The young lady behind Mrs. Zhang heard that Mrs. Chen didn't understand this, and she was slightly proud.
Dong Ruyi nodded and said, "Oh, that's it." But Sister Ru thought of an allusion in the Analects, and I don't know if it is the same meaning as what the young lady said just now. ”
After Dong Ruyi finished speaking, he made a look of wanting to speak and stopping.
At this moment, another person came over in twos and threes, including Mrs. Chen's three daughters-in-law.
Mrs. Chen said in her heart: "Oops, this one of her family is an unconscious master, she can talk to her master on weekdays, how can she not understand such simple words, she just thought that Dong Ruyi didn't want to waste her tongue with such a person, so she said something to let her go home and ask her master." ”
