Chapter Thirty-Eight
"Catch Ming'er and follow your second aunt to Lin Guogong's house to play for two days and then come back, but she didn't suffocate in the house." The old lady said with a smile.
"Okay. There are more people, and it is lively. Mingzhu also nodded with interest.
"That's good, I have two nieces who are a little older than you, you should be able to play together, stay for two days and come back." The second wife was also overjoyed when she heard it.
"Well, I'll take you to the flower viewing banquet in the eldest princess's mansion in two days, I heard that the camellia in the princess's mansion is blooming, I'll take a few of you to take a look." The eldest lady smiled and spoke.
"Well, go out for a walk when it's hot, don't stay at home all the time." The old lady also smiled and nodded.
"Well, my mother's family sent a message that the master in the eldest princess's mansion was preparing to resign, and I wrote to the eldest princess's mansion to invite people back, and the princess agreed. said that although this master is a woman's knowledge, he is also from a noble family, but his parents died early, and his brother and sister-in-law were a little unbearable, so he combed his hair and came out to eat. "The eldest lady told the old lady about it.
"Oh, the Duanjing County of the Princess Mansion is married, right?" The old lady pondered for a moment before remembering.
"yes, or we wouldn't be able to invite it." The eldest lady nodded.
"Well, then I'll rest assured, just give more restraints, I vaguely heard the master of his family, saying that the ability is very good, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are brilliant, the key is that the laws of history are also proficient, and he is also famous in making incense. I was thinking of inviting an old show to come back, but now the person you choose is better, if you invite someone back, clean up a small courtyard alone in the inner courtyard, let the clever girl wait, and teach for a long time. The old lady smiled with satisfaction.
"Yes, my daughter-in-law thinks the same way, why should I teach them to go out, she doesn't have any children, if she gets along well, it's not impossible to provide for her for the elderly." The eldest lady replied respectfully.
"Well, the key is to let the people below respect it, don't slack off, our family can't do such an arrogant thing to take the cracks between the eyes." The old lady has been upright all her life, which also affects the family's uprightness, and her son's sensible rules.
"Yes, don't worry, if there is something like that, you will be ruthless when you hit it."
"I admire such a self-respecting and self-reliant person the most, and it's true that I will see and learn from it when I come back." Mingzhu nodded seriously.
Not everyone has the courage to stand on their own, and they still don't marry for the rest of their lives, and it is even more difficult for such people to make a living.
The second wife also nodded appreciatively, "What you said is that the important thing for your daughter's family is to have this tenacious quality, and she can't be weak and cry at every turn, and our girl is not allowed to do this." β
"What the second family said is very reasonable, when the master arrives, don't start teaching from poetry, start teaching from the law of history, the right to listen to the story, the daughter's poetry is a little bit fine, you don't have to sigh to the moon, and I don't like that the most like that." The old lady's face showed a little disdain.
Jia Xuan's face flushed with shame, she really didn't expect that pretending to be pitiful would not work anywhere, this time it would become a stain, making her face panic.
After breakfast, Jiaxuan only felt tired and panicked, and she didn't dare to breathe when she ate with the old lady and her mother, for fear of doing something wrong, and even the posture of eating was stared at by Mama Zhang.
After breakfast, Mingzhu led her sister to start learning the rules, mainly learning the rules in the palace, and listening to the ancients, talking about the affairs of each family, so that they could fill their ears, and they also knew that they could not do those things, and then they learned the rules of female precepts, which is also what women must learn.
Mama Zhang talked for about half an hour, asking them to practice with each other, and then commented: "The second lady made a mistake just now, she made a sound when she drank porridge, and she couldn't make a sound when she ate, so as not to be a little indecent, you should pay attention to it in the future." You must pay attention to these when you go out to a banquet, otherwise you will be ridiculed. β
Jia Xuan's face was a little red, and she nodded hurriedly, "Yes, I remember." β
"Well, you can practice calligraphy, and take a break." Mama Zhang's reading is almost the same.
Bilan put a pen, ink, paper and inkstone for Mingzhu, and Peach also hurriedly stepped forward to be busy, recently Peach was locked up for a few days because of a mistake, and she was much more honest after coming out.
Peach went on the pole to be courteous, but Jiaxuan was faint, and let her follow, but her heart was not close.
Peach stood aside to grind, accidentally made a big effort, and some cheap ink came out, Jia Xuan raised her head and glanced at her, Peach was so frightened that she quickly knelt down, "The master atoned for his sins, but the slave was not careful." β
Jia Xuan frowned slightly, "Get up, I don't blame you for not doing it." Awkwardly, he tugged at the corners of his mouth.
Looking at the other three sisters, the maids are all very careful and careful, they are also big girls, Bilan is only second-class, but they also do a decent job, and they can't lift their own maids.
Before Taohong could breathe a sigh of relief and smile, Mingzhu said softly, "Taohong, how long have you been serving the second sister?" β
Taohong didn't understand what the eldest lady meant, and still answered honestly, "It's been almost a year." Served in the winter before last year. β
Mingzhu nodded slightly, didn't raise her head, her eyes fell on the words written on the rice paper, her tone was light but calm and calm, "Oh, it's been almost a year, and the second sister has been practicing calligraphy for half a year, you can't grind it until now?" After that, he turned his head and looked at her with clear eyes and a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth.
Taohong chuckled in her heart, her face instantly became pale and bloodless, and she knelt on the ground and trembled vigorously on her legs, "Slave ......, the slave is at fault, please spare the slave." β
Mingzhu chuckled, "Look at what Sister Peach said, what did I say?" Why are you shaking so much without doing anything? Isn't Mo sick? When you are sick, you quickly move home to recuperate, and ask someone to ask you for a doctor, what medicinal materials do you need from the house, and you are also waiting for the young lady, this idea is from the house. You said it's not the second sister, don't you blame the sister for being troublesome? She said as she stared at Jiaxuan with wide eyes.
Jia Xuan raised the corners of her mouth, her smile was bright and bright, and her eyes were warmer, and she smiled sincerely: "It's my sister who feels sorry for me, and I understand it in my heart." Who made you my sister, I don't rely on you to rely on whom, my sister doesn't care about me, what should I do? Tilting his head and smiling, he felt a little more naughty and close.
Mingzhu turned her head and asked, "Sister Taohong, are you sick or unwell?" Why don't I have someone move it out for you? β
Don't mention what RosΓ© did wrong, I care about being sympathetic to people, and it's also wrong? The new book is for collection, the New Year is almost over, I wish you an early year in advance, I wish you all a happy new year, good health, and a fortune in the Year of the Monkey!
