33. Chapter 33: Upbringing
Ruan Antan also had a little headache when she looked at this fifth sister. There are many sisters in the Ruan family, and the mother is not a careful one, and the guidance of their sisters is really limited, she herself was strictly raised by her grandmother, although the younger sisters behind are taught by Mr., they can only be the rules and etiquette skills on the surface, it can be said that the heart is slowly cultivated by themselves, so the personality and behavior of the five sisters are not similar.
Especially this fifth sister, two years ago, the seventh sister fell down the hill and fainted for more than a month, and the mother couldn't help but put her mind on the seventh sister, and when the seventh sister was well, the mother took care of her marriage and the third sister's dowry, so she kept the fifth sister in the old lady's place, and Liu Huanzhu spent more time together all day long. I don't see it on weekdays, but now I find out that this character has been raised a little crooked.
As soon as Ruan Antongfu came back, he found that his second sister looked at her so lightly, and there was a sense of grievance in her heart, her eyes turned red again for a moment, and she didn't make a sound, pouted and sat on the other side.
Ruan Antan was amused by her appearance, thinking that she was still a child after all, so she said: "But for my mother, I said that I would send my seventh sister to the palace to be wronged by Concubine Zhao?" Seeing Ruan Antong staring at one place without making a sound, she picked up the teacup and took a sip before she said slowly, "Your seventh sister beat the young lady of the eldest princess's mansion, you also saw it, if you don't go to the palace, your grandmother will send her to Pulian Nunnery." ”
Ruan Antong was stunned, she turned her head to look at Ruan Antan, and seemed to be a little puzzled.
Ruan Antan sighed even more in her heart, shook her head and said: "The concubine has never seen any of you at all, do you think that it is the mother's partiality that chooses to send the seventh sister to the palace?" If you think so, you are too wronged by your mother, your mother doesn't want any of us sisters to go to the palace at all, otherwise why wouldn't my mother take our sisters into the palace to meet the concubine Niangniang for so many years, but it is my mother's aunt and grandmother. ”
Seeing that Ruan Antong was stunned, Ruan Antan made persistent efforts and said: "It's just that the seventh sister in Huangzhuang made a big disaster today, offended the eldest princess's mansion, the second prince's mansion and even the queen mother's mother, the concubine Niangniang saw that the seventh sister was her old man's niece and granddaughter, and she was afraid that our Ruan family would not be able to protect it, so she took her to avoid trouble for a while." You also saw that grandmother didn't mention protecting the seventh sister, she directly wanted to push the seventh sister to the disaster. ”
Ruan Antan did not shy away from saying the rights and wrongs of her grandmother, she was still very dissatisfied with her grandmother's behavior of directly pushing her sister out, what kind of place is Pu Lian'an, and will there be any problems when her sister goes there at a young age, who knows? What if you can't get out forever? It's not without precedent, grandmother can make such a decision with a movement of her mouth!
"Fifth sister, think about it, if there is no kindness from the concubine, do you want the seventh sister to be sent to Pulian Nunnery, and then she will not be able to come out for the rest of her life?" Ruan Antan finally asked.
Ruan Antong subconsciously shook her head, she, she just felt why everyone was only good to An Geun and liked An Geun, but she didn't have such a mind, in fact, she just had a little envy and curiosity about entering the palace, and she didn't have that much thought.
Ruan Antan stepped forward and touched her head, and said: "Mother is busy, and now that she is pregnant, we still have to be considerate and considerate of her, think about it yourself, if you just want to enter the palace to have fun, there will be opportunities in the future." ”
Ruan Antong was preached by Ruan Antan's pure and pure seduction, and he was a little ashamed. Ruan Antan seemed to think of something when she left, and said: "The seventh sister is young and the rules are loose, presumably my mother will ask Mr. Min to teach the seventh sister the rules of the court, if you have the heart, let's go and listen to it together." ”
After speaking, Shi Shiran left, leaving Ruan Antong, who had ups and downs in his mind, unable to sleep all night.
The next day, Mrs. Zhao of the Shunguo Mansion got the news that Zhao was pregnant, and personally brought some experienced mothers-in-law and good medicinal materials to visit Zhao. Although these Zhao families have them, these represent the attitude and heart of the Shunguo Mansion.
Mrs. Ruan got the news and came to accompany her, but she was snubbed by Mrs. Zhao for a while, and finally she was sent away by Mrs. Zhao who said that she wanted to say something to her daughter. Old Madam Ruan lost face but knew that she was wrong, and she didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction.
The Anjin sisters also talked with their grandmother, and were told by Mrs. Zhao one by one, it is nothing more than that the little ones should be considerate of their mothers, don't be naughty, and don't hinder their mother's rest, and the big ones should share their mother's worries, take care of housework, and socialize with each other.
In the end, the Anjin sisters were also sent away, and Mrs. Zhao talked to the Zhao family alone for a long time, and in the middle, she also recruited Mr. Min, the husband of the Anjin sisters, to talk for a while. An Geun really doesn't know what the relationship between her mother's pregnancy and Mr. Min is, does Mr. Min also know how to have a safe pregnancy for pregnant women? Or know how to prenatal education?
Of course, An Jin soon learned that her grandmother and her mother, Mr. Zhao Min, were not talking about pregnancy or prenatal education, but to talk about her, Ruan Jiaqi's young lady, Ruan Anjian's study and upbringing.
When Mr. Min went to see Mr. Min the next day, Mr. An noticed the difference. Mr. Min changed the appearance of a casual beautiful woman who was playful and casual in the past, and suddenly became solemn, and even his dress changed from a wide-sleeved light tulle skirt to an orthodox dark blue satin skirt dress, and he looked like a court female instructor.
An Geun was really stunned for a moment, but she has always been able to adapt to the environment quietly, and when she saw Mr. Min dressed like this, she also put on a very dignified and elegant posture to give Mr. Min a proper salute, and only sat down to listen to Mr. Min's speech under Mr. Min's signal.
Mr. Min was very satisfied with An Jin's attitude, but did not give any explanation, but continued to put on a strict posture and ordered An Jin to start reviewing and demonstrating the full set of court etiquette, so that An Jin was tossed for an hour, and only began to explain An Jin's doubts at the end of the weekday attendance.
Mr. Min said: "From tomorrow until the Mid-Autumn Festival, Mr. Zhu's classes will be stopped, and he will come to me every day to attend classes, one and a half hours from six quarters in the morning, one and a half hours from six quarters in the afternoon, three hours a day, and the rest is the practice time." ”
An Jin looked at Mr. Min's pale face and a trace of complexity in his eyes, and then thought of the court etiquette practice for an hour today, and immediately thought of what his mother Zhao said, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, he would send himself to the palace Concubine Zhao to raise him, it seems that his mother had already discussed with his grandmother yesterday, otherwise his mother would not be such a cautious and meticulous person who plans for a rainy day.
An Jin promised, she is not a hypocritical person, and she must be prepared to deal with things that cannot be changed.
In the following days, Mr. Min's training days for An Jinpai were very full, court etiquette rules, royal history, harem grades, palace female officials and attendants, harem lords and favored concubines' family background and personality preferences, the background preferences of the underage princesses and princes in the palace, the situation of the princesses and princes who have moved out of the palace who have married and moved out of the palace, and the family background of them/their concubines or princesses, and even the situation of important female officials in the palace. It is enough for a young lady from an ordinary noble family, but now it is completely the educational posture of a woman entering the palace, and the time is short, so I am really tired and choking.
In fact, if Mr. Min knew what An Jin was thinking, he would definitely scoff at it, and the focus of training for women entering the palace was not only these.
However, An Geun did not train alone, and on the second day, for some reason, Ruan Antong also joined the training ranks, and changed her usual frivolous and uncontrollable temperament, which was relatively serious and hard-working. Although sometimes An Geun is really hard to see her, and occasionally it is not quite right, it is always a good thing to insist on studying hard, and to hinder people's progress is to hinder people's future, and An Geun will never do such a thing.
Zhao was pregnant, and the family was handed back to the eldest lady Cui, Cui's body did not heal, so he worked hard again, and the two daughters-in-law and the two young ladies were pregnant, and the Mid-Autumn Festival affairs were complicated, and Cui's couldn't look down on Liu Huanzhu, and she would never let her get a little housework, so he begged Zhao and asked Ruan Antan to help.
When Ruan Antan was in charge of the Zhao family, she had already taken her fourth sister Ruan Anmei to basically take over Taiban, especially the family contacts, shopping, needlework, etc., basically she took Ruan Anmei to manage. These eldest ladies are very clear that there are no heirs in the second room, and the dowry of the second brother and sister is not ordinarily rich, and they still can't look down on the family of the Hou Mansion that month and month to make ends meet, so the eldest lady basically has nothing to guard against, and she still asked Ruan Antan to take care of the part she was used to before, and she saved the toss.
Ruan Antan originally wanted to take her fifth sister to practice her hands, so she had a steady temperament, and saw that she had carefully learned the rules from Mr. Min and observed for two days, so she just stopped.
Not long after the beggar meeting, news of the marriage and the marriage of the noble and dignitary families came from Beijing one after another. To Zhao's relief, there was no news that Ruan Anzheng was going to be married, but Concubine Zhao sent someone to say hello and set a date for Ruan Anzheng to return home for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
After receiving Zhao's thanks and apology a few days after the Huangzhuang incident, the wife of Liang Guang, the new Dali Temple, also personally led her daughter Liang Yi to visit Zhao.
Zhao's pregnancy was less than three months, the month was still shallow, and she only said that she was unwell, so Mrs. Liang didn't know that Zhao was pregnant, and only thought that Zhao was sick because she was unhappy about Huangzhuang's affairs. When I saw Zhao, I saw that although her face was worse, her expression was acceptable, so I comforted Zhao with the words that I listened to, which was exactly what Zhao wanted.
The Zhao family called a few daughters to meet the guests, and Mrs. Liang praised the Ruan family sisters very much, and gave the Ruan family sisters a bag as a meeting gift.
Mrs. Liang's focus was obviously still on Ruan Anmei, she pulled Ruan Anmei and took off a white jade bracelet from her hand, and said with a little melancholy: "This is passed down by my mother, it is a pair, although the appearance is average, but it means a lot to me, I originally wanted to pass it on to my daughter, but unfortunately I was not blessed, Sister Yi failed to have a sister." That day, Sister Yi saw you, said that I was very close to you, I liked it very much, I will give you this bracelet today, if you don't dislike it, Sister Yi will also have a sister who supports each other in the capital in the future. ”
