After talking to her son, Qin Shu completely lost her mind, felt that her whole body was relaxed, and then she took a nap beautifully.

When he woke up, he was not surprised to find that Yoan had left.

You'an has always been very busy, and it is already the limit to be able to eat with her, and there is rarely a nap during the day.

Qin Shu thought that You'an had told him before that the situation of the eldest lady of the He family might be similar to him, so he immediately recruited Lu Qingmiao and ordered: "Send someone to check the details of the eldest lady of the He family, from small to large, no matter how big or small, you must find out clearly." ”

If she was also born again and took refuge in other forces, it would not be good news for them.

However, Qin Shu was not too worried.

Through Guò You'an's words, she knew that the situation in this life was already different from the previous life, and He Yunting's role was limited.

It's just that she suspects that He Yunting may not be a reborn person, and she doesn't feel like it. On the contrary, she looked at herself strangely. How to say it! It's as if he thinks he's seen through her.

When she faced herself, she always had an inexplicable confidence, but it was faintly mixed with a hint of hostility, and it felt quite complicated.

However, before this, He Yunting's abnormality did not arouse her suspicion in this regard, but she felt that her origin was suspicious, so that people paid more attention to the He family and He Yunting's movements. I just inquired a little about her previous affairs, and I didn't check it carefully.

Now that I know it, I naturally won't take it lightly.

Danger must be strangled in the cradle.

She doesn't take any enemy lightly.

Liang family.

It was late at night, but Liang Shilan still didn't sleep.

Originally, at this time, she should have slept a long time ago, but because she was going to the Generalissimo's Mansion tomorrow, she had a little more worries, so she couldn't sleep, and sat at the table in single clothes, looking at the candlelight in a daze.

Originally, she had no interest in entering the Qin Mansion as a concubine, she was the daughter of the Liang family, she couldn't pull off this face to be a concubine, and she never thought that she would be a concubine one day.

Being a concubine will be a shame for her for the rest of her life.

But she also knew that there was no better way out for her.

She is still young and has a long life, and she is really unwilling to waste her good years in vain, and she desperately wants to change this situation. It was precisely because of this unwillingness that she accepted her parents' mention and followed her mother to the Qin Mansion to participate in the competition of "virtuous concubines".

However, after going to the Generalissimo's Mansion, she regretted it, and she still couldn't accept it.

It wasn't until she came back that her mother talked to her once that she slowly opened her heart and looked forward to it a little more. It's just that my heart is still full of contradictions.

Now, she has successfully been favored by Mrs. Qin and has become one of the two candidates for "Virtuous Concubine", while she is relieved, her heart is even more entangled.

She still can't get over the hurdle in her heart-

"Virtuous concubines" are also concubines, and they can never compare to their wives.

Their Liang family is a century-old scholar, how noble, as the daughter of the Liang family, how can she be a concubine with others?

What's more, that person came from a reckless background, and he may not even know a few big characters. Not to mention compared to her former fiancé, she is not even as good as an ordinary reader. Although he is now a hegemon, in fact, to put it bluntly, he is just a thief. Don't look at the infinite scenery now, once you fail in the future, I am afraid that it will be inferior to ordinary people.

In this way, what is the point of her marrying Qin Youan as a concubine! It's better to marry someone with a slightly lower family background as a wife!

It's a pity that the current situation is that she is the eldest lady of the Liang family, and no one asks to marry at all. Even the people she didn't like before didn't dare to come to the door.

At this point, she had no choice but to choose the Qin family.

"Miss, it's late at night, you should rest early!" Her maid Yaoqin saw her sighing for a long time, a little worried, and came over and persuaded softly.

Liang Shilan came back to her senses and saw that it was really late, so she nodded, got up and walked to the bed.

After lying down under the service of the maid, seeing that Yaoqin was leaving, Liang Shilan suddenly asked, "Yaoqin, you say, what should I do?" ”

Yaoqin was stunned.

The eldest lady has always had ideas, and rarely asks them about these subordinates, but now she has begun to ask about her, and it is obvious that her heart is a little confused.

Yaoqin came back to her senses and said with some embarrassment: "Miss, you can ask the wrong person here." The slave is just a maid, and her knowledge is limited, so how can she have any good ideas! However, the old lady will definitely not harm the young lady, listen to them. ”

"You mean, Miss Ben is only worthy of Marshal Qin as a concubine now?" Liang Shilan glanced at her lightly and said in a calm tone.

Yaoqin's heart tightened, and she hurriedly lowered her head and said, "Miss is angry, the slave doesn't dare." The slave just felt that there would be nothing wrong with the decision of the lord and the lady......"

"That's it, even if I didn't ask, you go down!" Liang Shilan waved her hand a little irritably.

Yaoqin responded, put down the bed tent lightly, and slowly retreated.

Liang Shilan sighed, tossed and turned for half a night, and then fell asleep in a daze.

Until the next day, she still couldn't make up her mind.

Liang Shilan didn't think that she would lose the election, unless she didn't want to be selected and deliberately failed.

Just like last time, she didn't show how positive she was, and even deliberately restrained her edge, and kept a low profile again and again, but she was still favored by Mrs. Qin.

If she made up her mind not to marry Marshal Qin as a concubine, she had many ways to make Mrs. Qin give up herself.

The point is, she can't make up her mind. Once she misses the Qin family, her future situation will only be worse.

Before going to the Qin Mansion, Liang's mother also specially told Liang Shilan, asking her to show her well, and the Jedi should not be taken lightly. It is not allowed to be contemptuous and disdainful because the Qin family is from a commoner.

Liang's mother also knows herself

Liang's mother also knows her daughter, she is good at everything, but she is a little high.

Originally, it wasn't a big deal.

Especially the daughter from the Liang family, if she is a little taller, it is nothing, as long as she can control it to a good degree, not only will it not be disgusting, but it will also make people praise her integrity and arrogance. However, this "clear height" also depends on where it is.

It is impossible to say that the Liang family has no family opinion, they are used to dividing people into three, six, nine and so on, and they especially look down on those nouveau riche who have no background, but they are well cultivated, and they rarely really show it.

Even if Qin Youan becomes the emperor in the future, because of his low background, they may be a little disdainful in their hearts.

As the daughter of the Liang family, Liang Shilan naturally inherited the Liang family's views.

If Qin Youan was also from a family, even if it was a down-and-out family, Liang Shilan would probably not be so difficult to accept.

Liang's mother understands her daughter, so she will specially remind her.

Liang Shilan knew what was good and bad, and she responded seriously, and after that, she got into the carriage and went to the Qin Mansion.

She thought she had come early enough, but she didn't expect that Miss Xiao to come earlier than her, drinking tea in the living room in the front yard!

Seeing her coming, Xiao Ruxuan also stood up and greeted her meticulously.

Liang Shilan will not ruin the reputation of the Liang family outside, and the etiquette is not bad at all.

Although neither of them had the intention of competing, but this meeting, in fact, unconsciously became more energetic.

looked at each other, greeted, and tempted, and laughed, but there was a bit of for tat.

Liang Shilan also put away her initial contempt and paid attention to this opponent.

Even if it is her, she has to admit that the other party is indeed a big rival of hers, no matter which aspect, it is not worse, and she is younger than herself, but she is so calm and sophisticated.

Just when the two were communicating with each other, a maid came over to pass the word and asked them to follow them to see Mrs. Tai.

The two girls, Liang and Xiao, followed the maid to the backyard.

None of them were coming to the Generalissimo's Mansion for the first time, but in the past, Mrs. Tai had only summoned them in the front hall and had not been to the back house.

Unlike other people's back houses, where there are a bunch of maids and wives, there are more female guards with solemn expressions here.

Seeing them, Xiao Ruxuan was only surprised for a moment, and then looked as usual.

Her father was a general, and he had seen a lot of those guards and soldiers, and he had long been accustomed to this kind of scene, but these guards were just men and women.

And Liang Shilan is different.

She was born in a scholarly family, and the women she saw, even the maids and daughters in the family, were all dressed up brightly and soft-spoken, and she had never seen a woman with a knife or a gun, and she was angry.

When she saw this, her face turned pale at first, and then she frowned. Fortunately, she quickly remembered what this place was, and restrained her expression in time.

Qin Shu met them in the flower hall.

After Liang Shilan and Xiao Ruxuan saluted, Qin Shu said with a smile: "The two girls are the petites I invited, don't be polite, please sit down!" ”

"Mrs. Xie." After thanking the two of them, they sat down on the chair below.

Their sitting posture is not only well-behaved but also good-looking, and when facing Qin Shu, their demeanor is respectful and unrestrained, and it is indeed difficult to distinguish between them.

Qin Shu glanced at them and nodded with satisfaction.

Perhaps because of You'an's previous words, Qin Shu paid more attention to Xiao Ruxuan, and when observing, she also focused on Xiao Ruxuan, but ignored Liang Shilan, who she was once optimistic about.

In fact, she has no feelings for Liang Shilan, and it is not necessarily true to say that she is satisfied.

After all, she only met once, and Liang Shilan was not a lot of words, she didn't know much about it, and she was indeed a little reckless when she chose her.

Qin Shu began to talk to the two of them.

"Two girls, what do you like to do in your daily life?"

Xiao Ruxuan smiled faintly, lowered her eyes and replied respectfully: "Back to Mrs. Qin's words, the little girl usually serves her mother and takes care of the housework. Occasionally, when I have free time, I like to read books and play with flowers and plants. ”

Qin Shu nodded, and asked Liang Shilan again, "What about Miss Liang?" ”

Liang Shilan said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "I like piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine and songs, but my favorite is the piano, and I play the piano for at least one hour every day." Occasionally, I listen to plays, and I usually do needlework with the maids. ”

"Miss Liang has really lived a fairy-like life, which is enviable." Qin Shu said with a smile.

In this kind of troubled times, there are really not many people who can live so rich and stable like Liang Shilan.

Not sure what Qin Shu meant, Liang Shilan could only bow her head and be silent.

Qin Shu talked to them about other topics for a while, and then asked, "Two girls, how do you understand 'filial piety'?" ”

Hearing Qin Shu ask about this, Xiao Ruxuan and Liang Shilan both chuckled in their hearts, they had both heard some rumors about Shen Jingfang, it was said that Mrs. Shen was grounded because she was unfilial to Mrs. Tai, and both of them couldn't help but be cautious.

Liang Shilan thought for a while and said cautiously: "In the Book of Filial Piety, it is said that 'the five punishments belong to three thousand, and the sin is greater than unfilial piety; If you want the monarch to be supreme, those who are not saints cannot, and those who are not filial piety have no relatives, and this is the way of chaos'. Filial piety is greater than heaven, and unfilial people are the same as those who threaten the monarch and criticize the saints, and they are the bane of chaos. Even the "Book of Filial Piety" also says that if you govern the world with filial piety, you will get the "favor of all nations" and "the joy of the people", and reach the point where "the world is peaceful, disasters do not occur, and disasters do not occur." Therefore, filial piety is the most important. ”

"Miss Liang has a point." After listening to this, Qin Shu still had a smile on her face and nodded lightly.

In fact, Liang Shilan only stated the views on the "Book of Filial Piety", without mixing her own thoughts. Her answer can't be miscalculated, only

can be miscalculated, but it doesn't have what Qin Shu wants to hear.

Therefore, Qin Shu asked again: "Then in Miss Liang's opinion, what is filial piety and what is unfilial piety?" ”

Liang Shilan was stunned for a moment, and then said slowly: "Wholeheartedly supporting the elders and obeying your parents is filial piety, but on the contrary, it is unfilial." ”

She obeyed her parents' wishes, so she appeared in the Qin Mansion at this moment, vying to be this "virtuous concubine".

"What Miss Liang means is that even if her parents do something wrong, they must not refute it?" Qin Shu asked.

"This ......" Liang Shilan hesitated.

"Where's Miss Xiao?" Qin Shu looked at Xiao Ruxuan again.

Xiao Ruxuan said seriously: "I think that filial piety must be based on 'respect', and it must be sincere, not superficial. Otherwise, it is not true filial piety. The most important thing is to be 'polite'. Filial piety does not necessarily mean blind obedience, if parents are at fault, as children, they can use a tactful tone to advise, so as not to trap their parents in injustice, which is also a kind of filial piety. ”

Qin Shu nodded appreciatively, and asked again: "Disrespect, it is not true filial piety." You have a lot of point. ”

It's like Shen Jingfang, when facing herself, she seems to have always been very obedient, and the etiquette is not wrong. But she lacks the most basic "respect" for herself. She has never truly honored herself, just like Xiao Ruxuan said, her filial piety is only superficial.

It's not really submissive. Once her decision is not in Shen Jingfang's interests, or is not in line with her wishes, she will not bring it up with herself. She seems to be obedient, but in fact, she does all kinds of small actions in private, and disobeys her. This is what she can't accept the most.
