Chapter 47: Miscarriage and Going to School
The joy of the Hou Mansion suddenly showed signs of miscarriage when Su Ximei was about to be three months pregnant, and the Hou Mansion was frightened, although she tried her best, but she didn't keep it in the end, and during that period of time, even Su Xizhu and her juniors didn't dare to walk loudly.
"Ridiculous, Sister Mei miscarried because of this?" The old lady looked at the eldest daughter-in-law with a pale face on the ground, and was angry.
"Mother, that's not a trivial matter, how can you blame Sister Mei, it's all my uncle's fault." Zhang's whole person is not good now, not only worried about her daughter's miscarriage, but also worried that her mother-in-law has opinions about her daughter.
"Shut up, did my uncle spoil his concubine and kill his wife, or what? It's just a concubine who is pregnant, what's the big deal, it's just a concubine, but Sister Mei is jealous and has a direct miscarriage, you say, is this like a word? ”
The old lady smashed the cup angrily, this is the eldest daughter carefully cultivated by their Hou Mansion? Fortunately, the reason for Sister Mei's miscarriage was not worn, otherwise their Hou Mansion would have made people laugh to death.
"Mother, that may be the eldest son, not an ordinary concubine." Zhang shouted, the eldest son is the source of the chaos, how can it be a trivial matter.
"Hmph, Sister Mei was pregnant, we could use this to prevent the concubine from giving birth to the child, now it's okay, Sister Mei is so temperamental, because a concubine lost the child, where can the in-laws not have an opinion on Sister Mei? This kid must stay. The old lady looked at the pale face of her eldest daughter-in-law and sighed.
"Things have happened, and the most important thing now is to let Sister Mei take good care of her body, don't let her in-laws have pimples, and take the initiative to say that she will treat her concubine and concubine well."
"Mother." Zhang screamed, his voice obviously resistant.
"You can do it yourself, if you want Sister Mei to do well, do what I say." After the old lady finished speaking, she waved her hand and let them all go down.
Zhang gritted his teeth and thought for a long time or did it according to the old lady's idea, and then Su Xizhu learned that the eldest brother-in-law sent a heart when he did not receive the letter from the eldest sister, and his room was pregnant, because the room was given by the Duchess of Dingguo, so the eldest brother-in-law sent a letter to say that he didn't want to stay, but who knew that the eldest sister had a miscarriage after seeing the letter, and this is what happened.
Han Zhan didn't know that his wife was not pregnant by a letter, and it was indeed an accident that the daughter of the capable person next to the pregnant mother of Tongfang Tiantian's mother was pregnant, so Han Zhan thought about talking to the family first, plus Tiantian had been in poor health recently, so he didn't let her drink medicine.
Who knew that when he waited for a reply, he received a letter from his wife, who had lost her two-month-old child because of this incident, and Han Zhan didn't know what to say for a while, because he was dissatisfied with Su Ximei and Xu Tiantian's health was not good, and it was easy to have two lives if she forcibly had a fetus.
The Dingguo Mansion decided to keep this child, which can be regarded as a wake-up call for Su Ximei, of course, Han Zhan privately knew about the relationship between Xu Tiantian's girl, after all, no matter how dissatisfied Su Ximei was wrong, Han Zhan didn't want to make an eldest son, but he was very uncomfortable in his heart Su Ximei had no child.
In the future, Su Ximei was really relieved to know that Xu Tiantian gave birth to a girl, and now Su Ximei has been recuperating her body and re-establishing her image, when Su Xizhu went to see Su Ximei, she found that she was thinner than before, and there was no way, so she could only feel sorry for Su Ximei.
Fortunately, Su Ximei's body was raised in the end, and the Dingguo Mansion seemed to have forgotten everything, and when everything was calm, Su Xizhu started her daily life again, until her mother brought her bad news.
"Mother, what did you say? I'm going out to school? Why? Aren't we doing a good job in ethnology? Besides, I'm twelve years old, what are I going out to study? ”
Su Xi's bamboo head shook like a rattle, not that she felt how old she was, but in ancient times, women had to get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, so it was really a bit old to go out to study at the age of twelve.
"Isn't that the right opportunity? Sister Zhu, you heard from your mother that it's not just you, it's Sister Lan and Sister Ju who are going. Jiang Shi pressed the daughter who was about to jump to her feet, and explained the reason to her in detail.
It turned out that Wei Jiping, a university scholar in front of the palace, and the husband of the eldest princess, suddenly wanted to resign and start a school, intending to cultivate many outstanding talents for the country.
As the brother-in-law of His Majesty the Emperor, Wei Jiping is still very trusted by the emperor, especially when he hears that he is so not greedy for power, and he is even more moved to serve the country and the people, but the emperor said that he could not do without the assistance of Wei scholars, so he chose it.
The royal family came forward to set up a school, divided the age into classes, and went to guide the scholars in their free time, so that they could not only get the talent royal but also have a good reputation, and everyone was happy.
Although the original intention of Scholar Wei Jiping is a little disappointed, he is still very happy to be able to teach and educate Scholar Wei. The eldest princess also decided to support her husband after knowing her husband's thoughts, so her husband sang with her wife and opened a women's class according to the framework.
Boys over the age of 6 and under the age of 20 and girls over the age of 6 and under the age of 15 can sign up, but because it is just starting to run, it will be implemented in the honorable people's homes first, and each family will give a few places, and then slowly improve and promote it after there is no problem.
Although the Hou Mansion of Annan is a little declining, it is an old family after all, and there are not many children in the Hou Mansion of Annan, so everyone of school age can go to school. The elders of each family are very happy, and they can have a relationship with the eldest princess's mansion, not to mention sending their children to study and working, they are all willing to do it, but Su Xizhu is about to collapse.
How idle are the scholars and the eldest princess to make such a show, do they have no children at home to worry about? Su Xizhu thought about it, there really isn't, Wei Jiping and the eldest princess have only one son, and they haven't married yet, I heard that they have gone out to travel, and the remaining two empty nesters have nothing to do.
Su Xizhu scolded Wei Chengjin half to death in his heart, Wei Chengjin in the distance sneezed, looked at Shengjing from afar, and didn't know who was thinking about him, sure enough, even if the master left Shengjing, Shengjing still had the legend of the master.
"Mother, can you not go?" Su Xizhu was a little hopeless, and sure enough, her mother shook her head decisively, and Su Xizhu was like an eggplant beaten by frost in an instant.
"This matter is led by the royal family, so we must support it, and I heard that after deducting the operation, your bundles will be left over for the talented children of poor families to study and use, but at that time, the entrance exam will be very strict, and you are the first wave, so it is so easy to enter without examination."
Jiang explained that she was very much in favor of her daughter going out to school, a little girl, she should have a few handkerchiefs, but unfortunately Sister Zhu didn't like to go out and didn't make any friends, this time was just an opportunity.
"That is to say, use the money of the noble family to support the poor children? Then we don't pay for it, can we? Su Xizhu was dying, and Jiang Shi knocked on her head angrily.
"Where are you enough for your tuition, I heard that the eldest princess donated money, and each of our families is estimated to have to donate, after all, it is a place where you can learn knowledge and have a good reputation, so no one will be reluctant to pay this money."
"I'm not reluctant to give up my money, I'm the one who can't bear me." In the ethnology, because of Su Xilan's presence, Su Xizhu was very relaxed, after all, she couldn't wait for all the teachers to pay attention to her, and Su Xizhu could just paddle with her. But when he got outside, he couldn't do it, and Su Xizhu had no bright future when he thought about it.
Different from Su Xizhu's sigh, the other people of the Su family are not happy, especially the second lady of the Su family, Su Xilan, she claims to be a talented girl, but because the old lady of the Su family is partial, she does not let her overpower the granddaughter of the two relatives, so her talent has not been revealed, and now with this opportunity, Su Xilan decided to let everyone know that there is a Su Xilan in the Su family.
"Sister Lan, this is really a good opportunity, with your appearance, you will definitely be a blockbuster in the school, and when the time comes, you will definitely not lose to your eldest sister, Sister Lan must cherish this opportunity."
Su Xilan nodded, and her mother were both full of fighting spirit. It seems that Su Xilan is now showing her strength and fame in Shengjing, and there is an endless stream of relatives begging for relatives.
Unlike Su Xilan's excitement and Su Xizhu's troubles, Su Xiju, the youngest daughter of the Su family, is very frightened, she is nine years old, although her personality has changed a lot over the years, but in general she is still timid, and now she is afraid that her mother said that she wants to go out to study The key is that her age and sister at home are definitely not in the same class.
Zhang didn't notice his daughter's fright, but was as happy as Zhou, looked at Su Xiju and instructed, "When you get to the school, you have to study hard, your eldest sister was a famous talented woman in Shengjing back then, and you, as her sister-in-law, can't you be worse?" ”
Zhang thinks that although the youngest daughter is not as smart as the eldest daughter, she gave birth to it, so why is it not too bad, isn't it? It's just that after saying it for a long time, she found that her daughter didn't react, and when she looked at it, she found that Su Xiju's face was pale.
"What are you doing here?" Zhang scolded, but the more she was like this, the more Su Xiju trembled, Zhang rubbed his eyebrows, and his tone softened.
"Sister Ju, what do you want to say, say it slowly."
"Mother, can I not go?" Su Xiju asked timidly.
"No, you are the concubine of my Annan Hou Mansion, in terms of identity, no one is more noble than you except your eldest sister, so when you go out, you represent the face of our Annan Hou Mansion, and the face of your big sister, you must not lose to others."
"But." Su Xiju has no confidence at all, she is really average, the only thing that is outstanding is the female celebrity and cooking, and the others are not as good as the other sisters.
"No, but, the second room is a concubine, don't look at your second sister seems to be very powerful now, but she lost in the body after all, although your third sister is a concubine, but with her kind of qualifications, it's good to go out and not make people laugh, can you still expect her to earn face for our Hou Mansion? So Sister Ju, you must be angry. ”
Su Xiju looked at her mother's expression and didn't dare to speak anymore, so she could only lower her head and remain silent, she was really scared, what should she do?
