Ruan took Xiusun back to the Buddha Hand Lake Courtyard, first went to greet the old lady, and when the old lady saw her daughter-in-law and granddaughter, she asked them to change their clothes first and then come over to talk.

Ruan Shi promised to give the old lady a blessing and retired, and Xiusun went back to his blue yarn cupboard, the little magpie's injury had not yet healed, so he went back to rest first, and the mandarin duck served to bathe and change clothes.

After freshening up, Xiusun felt relieved, drank rose water, and went to the old lady's house.

It was the first time that the old lady had left her granddaughter for so long, so she pulled Xiusun into her arms and looked left and right, and found that Xiusun was white and fat, and she was very happy and praised her again and again.

Xiusun expressed her helplessness, she was embarrassed to stand with the other three sisters who were more beautiful than Huajiao in this honor now.

The grandparents and grandchildren were making love, Xiuguan Xiuzhi and Xiuqian came, Xiusun jumped off the Luohan bed and greeted each other with several sisters, sighing in her heart, if you don't want to do anything, you can come here.

Xiuqian is beautiful again, her round little face is like a red apple, and she has also taken off her original shrinking style, and she is much more relaxed in front of the old lady. Xiuguan and Xiuzhi haven't changed much, one is beautiful and the other is tranquil.

The four sisters sat in a row on the drum bench opposite the old lady, and the old lady asked, "Have you seen your mother?" ”

Xiuguan said, "The granddaughters went to the Green Onion Pavilion first, and the mother was freshening up, so she asked us to come over and accompany the old lady first." ”

The old lady nodded, took another sip of tea, and said, "Out of the ambush, the weather is getting cooler, the boudoir school in Jiangpu's old house should have started, and there has been a delay in the long house recently, so I have to wait for a while." ”

The four girls reacted differently, Xiusun and Xiuqian shrank their necks and breathed a sigh of relief, great, they can play for a few more days, Xiuguan and Xiuzhi pursed their lips, they are older, and they definitely want to learn more before they get married, although these two sisters look very different, they are generally strong in their bones.

The old lady saw the reactions of several granddaughters, sighed softly, and continued, "Xiao and Xie have already arrived in Pukou, and in the future, Xiao will teach you the four female books, and Xie will teach you calligraphy and painting. ”

Then he looked at Xiuguan and Xiuzhi and said, "You have to study hard this time." ”

Xiuguan and Xiuzhi bowed their heads.

Xiusun thought about these names.

Xiao and Xie are from the Jinling Wang family, they are sisters of the same clan, they are all famous talented women from the north and south of the river before they got married, and they married into the Jinling Xiao family and the Jinling Xie family respectively.

Thank you for being good at poetry, published a collection of poems at the age of sixteen, the rhetoric is tranquil, the words are generous, Luoyang paper is expensive for a while, how many eyebrows are admired to the ground, it is said that her calligraphy and painting are also very good, but there is no work in the market. Now she is invited to teach the ladies calligraphy and painting, which shows that this rumor is true.

When Xiao was in the boudoir, he assisted his brother Wang Hanlin in writing books and sayings, and he was good at strategy, and it is said that several younger brothers in his mother's family were instructed by her.

The fate of this pair of sisters is somewhat similar, they both have children, are young and widowed, keep festivals for ten years, and earn a chastity archway for their in-laws. The young ladies in the family who have nothing to do to educate them are well-read, and their fame is far and wide.

Yunshang embroidery workshop of the road embroidery girl she knows, she created the original painting embroidery technique, when she had embroidered a hundred birds towards the phoenix picture of the interstitial screen into the queen mother, the emperor mother's pen gave the word commendation, not only the famous embroidery of the court and the field, but also the famous filial piety.

Mama Shen, I haven't heard of it, but since it came out of the palace and the second old lady has seen it herself, it shouldn't be much worse.

She hadn't heard of this Master Hui either, but when the old lady said it, she saw Xiuguan's eyes light up, she should be a famous pianist.

As far as the three masters that Xiusun knows are talented and have a good reputation, inviting these such excellent masters to be teachers, the Chu family should not just be as simple as teaching a few young ladies to read.

Sure enough, I heard the old lady continue, "There are also young ladies from several neighboring families who are also coming to study, you must respect virtue and etiquette, and live in harmony." ”

The four sisters should be together, Xiusun lowered her head and hooked the corners of her lips, sure enough, in this way, the reputation of the Chu family's boudoir school spread, and after the above several virtuous and talented masters, the value of the girls who went to school in the Chu family boudoir school can also increase.

In addition, the Chu clan has gathered so many children who can read in the Nanzhili area, hum, at most, five or six years later, the influence of the Chu family in Nanzhili will not be the same as today.

The old lady was about to give another reminder on the precautions for dressing, but Ruan came over, so she had to press it later.

Sending the girls back to their respective courtyards, the old lady pulled Ruan to sit opposite her, and asked with concern, "After cultivating for half a month, are you in good health?" Have a good appetite? Do you feel uncomfortable? ”

Ruan Shi looked at the old lady's kind and kind appearance, but he still didn't feel very comfortable, and only replied honestly, "There is no uncomfortable place, the old lady has been tired these days, and the daughter-in-law is not filial." ”

Recently, the old lady was so enthusiastic, Ruan Shi didn't know why, but she began to reflect on her past behavior, and she remembered that she had never cared so passionately about the old lady's diet and daily life, and she was somewhat ashamed.

The old lady didn't notice her daughter-in-law's inquiry, but she keenly noticed that her daughter-in-law's face was a little haggard, and hurriedly asked what was going on. ”

The old lady hurriedly took Ruan's hand to appease her, and she was going to ask for a doctor, but Ruan hurriedly waved her hand and refused, saying that she had invited the famous doctor Ru Niangzi to live at home, and she would come to Pukou in a few days.

"That day, my daughter-in-law met Mrs. Wu on the way to Zhuangzi, but I didn't expect her to die when she turned around." Ruan Shi sighed with emotion, "Do you want your daughter-in-law to go to the pillar incense and greet her?" ”

The old lady remembered the last time the eldest man went to the funeral, and Xiusun was frightened, and said, "The Wu family and the long house are in-laws, and their family's affairs have their own long house cooking, and besides, the yin in that place in Yizhuang is too heavy, so don't go, the young master of the Wu family will arrive in Pukou in a few days, and let the steward go to help." ”

Mrs. Wu is not a member of the Chu family after all, and after confirming her identity, her body is stored in Yizhuang outside the city.

Xiusun also sighed, she remembered the third sister who didn't remember her appearance very well, before she passed the door, her mother-in-law passed away, and when she served her father for three years of filial piety, the eldest master of the Wu family had already married Xu Xian, and I don't know what the scene was like at that time.

Ruan Shi remembered the eldest lady, "She's okay, she happened to take Xiuman out of the city to see off Mrs. Wu that day, her face was very bad at that time, and I don't know how it is now." "Mrs. Wu rushed to Pukou to support her, but she died in Pukou, this thing is really difficult to do. There is a kind of embarrassment that I don't kill Beren, and Beren dies because of me.

"Speaking of that eldest lady," the old lady's demeanor seemed to be a little gloating, but thinking of the bad consequences of the last time she gloated, she still held back, coughed lightly, and said sternly, "The eldest lady found out that she was pregnant a few days ago, and the doctor said that the fetus was unstable and she was taking fetal medicine to recuperate in bed." “

"What!" Ruan Shi was shocked, "Changfang spent so much effort to succeed an heir, but it turned out that the eldest lady had a posthumous child?" "With Ruan's understanding of the eldest lady, it is still certain that she is not so bold to steal men.

Thousands of turns, changeable, what a fierce life.

What a cheating child this is, if it was discovered earlier, would it be as for the desperate struggle to delay the time of his father's corpse and pass on an heir from the outside? Straight to the edge of the pen from the outside to pick up a newborn boy, the eldest lady gave birth to a boy and said that she gave birth to twin boys, if she gave birth to a girl, it was said that it was a dragon and phoenix fetus.

Buying a doctor to say that he had diagnosed the twins a few months in advance is not much different from buying a Taoist priest to talk nonsense about a bunch of numerology feng shui.

Xiusun also raised her head in shock, Changfang's luck was too bad, she suddenly remembered that on the day she went to the hot spring Zhuangzi, the strong smell of wormwood on the eldest lady's body, now it seems that it is not an ordinary winter disease and summer treatment, she is burning mugwort to protect the fetus, is it that the eldest lady has been so strict that she may slip at any time?

Thinking about it later, spices are taboo during pregnancy, especially in the first few months, even the sandalwood of the Buddha is to be avoided, not to mention such a vigorous musk, and such a large dose, it is strange that her fetal appearance can be stable.

Now it seems that this child may not be born.

Xiusun suddenly remembered the equally unlucky heir, the little boy, a little shy, with red scars left by chilblains on his fingers and the back of his hands.

It's good that the eldest lady gave birth to a daughter, but if she gave birth to a son...... Recently, she has heard about some things about the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the old lady one after another, and she can basically make a judgment that if the eldest lady gives birth to a son, then the life of this heir will definitely not be easy.

Is this series of twists and turns a kind of retribution for Changfang, but it's a pity for an innocent child.

"Mother, I want to write to my brother and ask him to recommend a few useful guards to come over, let's take care of the portal, and send another one to the eighth master to protect it, so peace of mind." Ruan Shi looked at the old lady and asked softly, she never thought that it was not a dart game, someone would actually intercept and kill halfway, it was a peaceful and prosperous era, and there would be martial arts masters who would silently break into her Zhuangzi, and she decided to upgrade the security of her home.

When she got married, the mighty red makeup was obvious to all, and if someone had bad intentions, it would be easy to deal with it.

And Chu Baye's place, it should be easy, first, she has not given birth to a son, she must not be a widow, and she needs to properly protect this nerd who is useless except for giving birth to a son, and second, she just has an excuse to send her own person to him, she was not interested in it at first, but now she wants to have a son, and she needs to keep track of his movements.

If it were normal, the old lady might still suspect that Ruan's wanted to install someone to the eighth master's side, even if she agreed, her heart would still be sour, but now, when the old lady saw Ruan's pitiful expression of fear, she was busy feeling distressed, and seeing Ruan's so scared and thinking about her stupid son, her heart was ironing and moving, and she immediately agreed.

"Okay, you just say that my old woman asked her in-laws to help, the monthly money is negotiable, if you have a family, you can also drag your family over, we have arrangements for birth, old age, sickness and death." The old lady said cheerfully.

Ruan Shi was stunned for a moment when he saw the old lady talking so well, and then thanked the old lady happily.

The old lady and Ruan Shi seemed to have something to say, seeing that Xiusun was here, she asked her to go back, Xiusun refused to leave, she was too curious but not easy to eavesdrop.

Before Ruan's anger was dissipated, Liu raised his eyebrows and asked Xiusun to go back and continue to copy the female commandments, and Xiusun had no choice but to flee back to the blue yarn cupboard.

She was lying on the bed holding a cool pillow, pouting and jealous, and the old lady just heard Ruan's say that she asked Xiusun to copy the female commandment and asked what was going on.

Of course, Ruan Shi would not sue the old lady Xiusun for saving an unknown man, but said that Xiusun secretly hid and read the notebook and was discovered by her.

When the old lady heard that she was going to be punished for copying the female commandment a thousand times, she frowned slightly, but when she turned her face to face Xiusun, her eyebrows were stretched, and her face was stern.

"Since your mother said that she would punish you, you should be punished well, and you happen to be familiar with the female commandments, so you should prepare your homework in advance."

Woo...... The old lady obviously felt that the punishment was heavy and didn't want to refute Ruan's, woo...... This mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are so good that they don't want her anymore.

You can't run away from home.

Oh, resolutely no, she will be caught by the Ruan family and beaten half to death and then copied the female commandment 10,000 times.

Xiusun herself didn't even notice it, she was already deeply afraid of Ruan.
