"What kind of background is Aunt Liu? Can you get it? After walking for a while, I couldn't see the shadows of Aunt Liu and Mother Zhao anymore, so Yulan asked in a low voice.

The original owner of this body was a person who did not care about everything, and all day long, "his ears did not listen to the things outside the window, and he only read the books of sages and sages", and he automatically became deaf and blind.

Yulan came for a while, adapted to the body, dealt with the eldest lady and the old lady, and only recently straightened things out, and slowly had time to make up for these basic materials. So he instructed Xiaoyu to inquire carefully about the background information of all kinds of people in the house, what is the background of her mother's family, who is close to whom, who is close to whom, who has gaps with whom, and find out one by one, tear up this intricate relationship layer by layer, and know it in your heart.

It's not that I want to hurt anyone. The so-called look at the problem to see the essence, only by understanding the intricate genealogical relationships behind the Tao, can we understand the true purpose of these wives and grandmothers, and can we make correct judgments and decisions.

Or a habit in the workplace in a previous life.

Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.

Xiaoyu is a steady person, doing things properly, these days, knocking on the side, silently, has touched the relevant people inside and outside the house.

“…… It was given by the old lady! Xiaoyu hid the subject, and at the same time lowered her voice. I inquired about the second door Mrs. Li, Mrs. Li has been in the house for more than 20 years, she usually loves to chew her tongue, and she doesn't know how to do big and small things in the house, because that mouth doesn't eat less boards, if it weren't for her brother who has a head and face in charge of affairs in the outer courtyard, he would have been kicked out of the house a long time ago...... She was also from a family of eunuchs, and her father and the old lady were very good friends back then, but there was a disagreement in politics, and gradually they didn't have much contact. Later, her family was bad, the official was dismissed, the house was raided, and she was about to be sold to the teaching department, her father begged the old lady, and the old lady remembered the old love of the day, so he rescued her and settled her in the house. Later, when she was old, no one in the family of the offender was hired to marry, and the eldest lord had no son for a long time, so the old lady made the decision to give her to the eldest lord as a concubine. She is accustomed to being bent and welcoming, and she is very fond of the eldest master and gives birth to a son......"

Yulan nodded as she listened.

When she arrived at Songhe Hall, the little girl just shouted, "The seventh girl is here", and Mother Su came out of the old lady's room, "The old lady just got up from a nap, and she was talking about the girl." ”

"Mother Su......" Yulan and Xiaoyu greeted her with a smile as they bypassed the twelve golden silk nanmu mud and gold screens and entered the inner room. Mother Su is the real old man by the old lady's side, she has been following the old lady for decades, she has no children and no daughters, she has been widowed all her life, and she has been with the old lady for longer than every child.

The old lady wore a lilac-colored butterfly grape pattern makeup jacket, sat on the Luohan bed with a smile, and Xinghuang knelt on her feet and beat her legs with a beauty hammer.

Yulan smiled and stepped forward to salute the old lady.

The old lady pointed to a brocade pestle next to the bed: "Sit!" ”

"This is the past few days to copy the scriptures, please grandmother to look at it." Yulan first respectfully handed over the copied scriptures with both hands, and then sat on the brocade, while Xiaoyu stood behind her honestly.

Xinghuang took the scripture and handed it to the old lady.

The old lady took it casually, looked at it, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face. "The more the words of the seven girls are written, the more beautiful they become!"

Yulan smiled elegantly: "It was my grandmother who gave me such a good opportunity, and I learned Buddhism and practiced calligraphy at the same time." ”

"This kid's mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter." The old lady said to Su's mother with a smile. Su's mother said: "But isn't it, I've seen the seventh girl these days, and it's getting better and better day by day." Old lady, you are a blessed person, these grandchildren and grandchildren, one is more outstanding than the other, and one is more promising than the other! ”

The old lady nodded: "You said yes." This kid copied these scriptures for me, and he didn't slack off in the slightest, and his filial piety was commendable. Turning to Yulan and saying, "Your words are the right size, I look comfortable." Many people have copied the scriptures for me, and your words are beautiful and graceful. ”

Yulan hurriedly said: "This is what the granddaughter should do, and I don't dare to take credit." "Very respectful and polite, just like a subordinate treats his superior.

A hint of surprise flashed in Su's mother's eyes. She serves day and night in the old lady's house, she has seen a lot of old lady's grandchildren, which one sees the old lady is not a face of admiration and flattery, and when she has the opportunity, she always has to be coquettish and foolish, which makes the old lady happy. Only this seven girls do things properly, not leaking, and are respectful to the old lady, but there is a little less intimacy.

She was puzzled.

Yulan also knew that the way he got along with the old lady was not a good choice. Can she be a 30-year-old woman who sells well all day long, and Chenghuan is on her knees? Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle.

There are some things that can be compromised, but there is an arrogance in my bones, which was brought over from my previous life, and I can't change it if I want to.

Therefore, you can only settle for the next best thing, and you can't be regarded as a grandmother, so take a step back and treat her as a boss.

She also touched a little bit of the good old lady's temperament. Don't look at her eating fasting and reciting Buddha all day long, studying the Dharma, it seems that she doesn't care about anything, but she knows very well in her heart that whether she is true or false, she can see it clearly. If there is no means, you can't press the two noble-born daughters-in-law into obedience. On the other hand, she is also about rules, not only about her background, but also about her descendants.

Every time Yulan leaves the old lady, she can always get some rewards, food and clothing, jewelry, everything. If you behave well, you will be rewarded more, and if you behave poorly, you will be rewarded less. What should be deserved and what should not be deserved, the old lady has a scale in her heart, with clear rewards and punishments, and there is no confusion.

What a good boss! Let Yulan rest assured a lot, he won't work hard in the dark shadow.

The old lady looked at Yulan's copying of the scriptures seriously, and the more she looked at it, the more surprised she became, and then she covered the scroll and groaned.

"You added these symbols to your text to break sentences." I finally got it.

It is important to know that the ancient documents of the Dao are different from modern ones, and they are written vertically and have no punctuation. Sentences can only be broken through the sense of language, mood particles, grammatical structures, etc., which often cause ambiguity and misunderstanding of the words and sentences of the article. Buddhist scriptures are already obscure, and there are many rare words, which makes people have a headache to read. When Yulan copied it for the first time, he scolded the ancients for being idiots, and he didn't know how to break sentences, and he wanted to add punctuation marks for a long time, but he was afraid of shocking the world.

Now that some people have figured out the old lady's temperament, they dare to do something about it.

The old lady is a haughty person, and the more intelligent and capable you are, the more the old lady will look down on you.

Yulan explained, "The Lengyan scriptures are broad and profound, and the words are beautiful, and the granddaughter is very difficult to read, and it is especially difficult to break sentences." My grandmother is ten times wiser than mine, but my granddaughter thinks that it will take some effort for you old man to read it, where to break and where to connect. The granddaughter took it upon herself to add these symbols between the sentences when she copied them, and if she could save her grandmother any effort, it would not be in vain. If the grandmother thinks it's wrong, the granddaughter will change it back immediately. She didn't dare to "invent" all the punctuation marks at once, because she would be a little too talented to attract suspicion. I checked some ancient books and chose the "▄" symbol that appeared in ancient books, which has two punctuation functions: comma and period.

"Sure enough, it saved a lot of effort." The old lady muttered. This time, she really couldn't help but look at Yulan differently. "Do you think about it yourself?"

Yulan said: "My granddaughter doesn't dare to take credit!" The granddaughter read the "Biography of He Ji in the History of Qi" in the previous dynasty and praised He Ji for 'punctuating everything he reads. Righteousness is self-evident, and there is self-seeing without waiting for arguments. The granddaughter thought that it was just right to use, so she went to the outer study to look through the ancient books for a few days, and finally found He Ji who had marked the ancient books. It's the symbol that my grandmother saw. ”

The old lady nodded again and again: "It turns out that the ancients have used it, but it is really a good method." Thanks to your knowledge, remember this! ”

The old lady is also a knowledgeable person, and after a little thought, it immediately occurred to her that this practice can be extended. The old lady now has to read tens of thousands of words every day, and if someone is sent to read the sentence first and then read it, wouldn't it save a lot of energy...... Thinking about it like this, Yulan was pleasing to the eye for three points.

At this time, Su's mother also came over to see, and the old lady explained a few words to her. Su's mother was also surprised when she heard this, and praised her vigorously: "No wonder the old lady praised the girl for her cleverness." I think the girl is not only smart, but also this heart and filial piety are not comparable to others. ”

The old lady was also a little moved, and her attitude became more and more kind.

Yulan read the Buddhist scriptures to the old lady for a while, and accompanied her to talk about the Sutra for half an hour. Only then did she quit and the old lady left. Before leaving, the old lady told her kindly and pleasantly not to copy the scriptures like this, but to walk around with her sisters more and loosen her body. There was a little more concern in his tone.

After Yulan left, Su's mother personally helped the old lady to the east ear room, arranged into a small Buddha hall, and Guanyin Bodhisattva was offered on the Buddha shrine in the middle.

Su's mother lit sandalwood in the cloisonné enamel and gold-painted three-legged small ding, and the cigarette curled for a while.

The old lady sat down in front of the incense platform. Neither chanting scriptures nor worshipping Buddha, just looking at the white jade Guanyin statue in a daze. Mother Su stood behind her, silent, not daring to disturb.

The old lady suddenly asked, "What do you think of Sister Lan?" "Mother Su is a confidant, so the old lady will ask so directly.

Mother Su groaned and said slowly: "The seventh girl is smart and filial, of course it's a good one. ”

The old lady laughed and scolded: "You don't give me a sloppy eye!" How many old sisters, if you have something to say, just say it. ”

"Then the old slave trespassed." Mother Su said with a smile: "The seventh girl has a good character, open-minded behavior, and is self-willed. The old slave looked at it coldly, she only went to Songhe Hall a few times, and every time she talked to her subordinates, she only had a few words, and there was no big reward, but you listen, maids and daughters-in-law, who doesn't praise her for being good. Even when I saw her, I couldn't help but want to hurt her. This ability to deal with people, to put it mildly, even wives and grandmothers are not as good as them. ”

The old lady was not angry, and nodded approvingly, "You said yes." used to see her as an unworthy person, but now she is the best among all her granddaughters. The practice of human affection is the article, she has such a ability, and she is also her creation. ”

"It's so calm at a young age. It's a pity that the wrong fetus was cast, if it was reincarnated in the belly of the wife, it would be the best choice for the head of the family. After saying that, he shook his head again and again, his face full of regret.

The old lady said: "Life is good or bad, not rich. I don't think she's a dragon and a phoenix, which is inverted with her biological mother. On the surface, he is respectful and respectful, but he is stubborn and proud in his bones. Even I, an old lady, don't bother to stutter. ”

Mother Su hurriedly persuaded: "Old lady, the seventh girl looks like a filial ......"

The old lady interrupted her with a wave of her hand: "I don't care about her attitude towards me. I have ignored her all these years, and she will inevitably have some resentment towards me, which is human nature, and I don't blame her. I'm just afraid that she will still be like her mother, who doesn't care about small things, and refuses to turn around when she knows that she will suffer a loss...... It's easy to fold! ”

Su's mother quipped: "Except for the second girl, I haven't seen which granddaughter you are so interested in?" "She knows the old lady, she is very arrogant, and she doesn't bother to ask about her granddaughter. That kind of care and love is okay on the surface. Having said that, this is also to blame for the fact that these girls of the Yang family are not successful.

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. The children are left to their own affairs. I'm too old to care about that much. It's just that Sister Lan, this child, for the sake of the Yang family, inevitably has to deal with the nobles in the palace, so I pity her a little more. ”

Su's mother knew that she had a hard mouth, so she just smiled.
