Chapter 21: The Old Lady's Anger
Qin Wanyi saw Mei Yun asking such a question, so she turned to ask rhetorically: "The Confucian saint that people revere was also born in the countryside, but he advocated governing the country with etiquette, and it is still the goal of people's learning. I don't understand, it must be rude to be born in the countryside? ”
"Moreover, my father is a famous family. As a father's daughter, I should be more on par with him. Although I grew up in the countryside, I never forgot for a moment that I was the eldest lady of the Qin family. ”
Mei Yun found that what Qin Wanyi said was leaky, and there seemed to be no way to refute it. But she suddenly remembered something, so she asked rhetorically: "Don't you know, the eldest lady doesn't know that a woman with an identity should keep to herself, in addition to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting and female red, she should also act in a low-key manner."
It's just that the eldest lady spends all her time studying, and other aspects will naturally be lacking, so the old slave needs to give the eldest lady a mention or two. ”
At this moment, Mei Yun realized that this eldest lady of the Qin Mansion who grew up in the countryside was really unusual. Although she didn't understand how the other party learned these poems and texts, she thought that reading was what a man should do.
Qin Wanyi looked at her steadily: "So, does Mama think what I just said is not right?" ”
Originally, Mei Yun wanted to move the topic out, but Qin Wanyi returned to Sage Kong, she was a woman, how could she dare to refute this?
"The old slave didn't mean that, just ......"
As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Wanyi suddenly said: "Wanyi understands that she really shouldn't spend all her time studying. I also know that I must do my daughter's duty and not let my father be ashamed. ”
At this time, Mei Yun was stunned, she didn't understand why Qin Wanyi suddenly put away her edge.
Just when she was puzzled, Qin Wanyi pointed to Ziyun who was kneeling on the ground: "Then let's not talk about those things, let's talk about the current situation." ”
Ziyun looked at Mei Yun with blank eyes, hoping that she could help. But there was no emotion in Mei Yun's eyes, and she knew that she had to solve it according to the rules now.
"Okay, then the eldest lady told me what happened to this girl Ziyun?"
Qin Wanyi snorted coldly: "Before you appeared, Ziyun was actually in my courtyard against the guest. And even if you don't salute me, you still want me to do the laundry? So may I ask Mama, how to deal with this? ”
Hearing this, the four grandmothers frowned. They originally thought that Qin Wanyi was easy to deal with, so they didn't let Ziyun restrain her domineering attitude.
But now that Ziyun is in trouble, they don't dare to release the water at all. This eldest lady is not simple, if she catches the handle, won't it become a joke?
If the water is not released, what this Ziyun has done is enough to be dragged out and tortured with a stick.
Looking at the embarrassed looks of several grandmothers, the corners of Qin Wanyi's mouth hooked up a beautiful arc. Those maids didn't dare to underestimate Qin Wanyi anymore, after all, Ziyun was so miserable just now, and now even the four teaching grandmothers were deflated, what reason did they have not to be afraid?
At this time, Qin Wanyi looked at Ziyun, who was still kneeling on the ground. When Ziyun saw Qin Wanyi's appearance of smiling but not smiling, she felt her body tremble for a while, as if she was a hare being hunted down!
Ziyun looked at a few grandmothers for help, but they all put on a side-by-side attitude.
After all, the four grandmothers are also shrewd people, if they are saved, they will leave Qin Wanyi with pigtails, if they don't save it, they will offend Aunt Zhang.
Mei Yun sighed: "The eldest lady decides how to deal with this matter herself, we have no right to interfere." However, the old slave still admires the methods of the eldest lady, you know more than a few of us. ”
There was a bit of admiration in her words, but more of a polite word to herself.
Qin Wanyi said: "Mama is too modest, you were sent by my grandmother to teach me, how can I know more than you." ”
As soon as they heard this, several grandmothers were so angry that they vomited three liters of blood. This eldest lady is really cheap and obedient, obviously adding a few more handfuls of salt to their wounds!
At this time, Ziyun had already stopped slapping her face, and she really didn't know what to do, so she had to keep kowtowing and admitting her mistake.
Ziyun was originally counting on a few grandmothers who couldn't help, she only blamed herself for being too disrespectful to Qin Wanyi just now, and now looking at it like this, the other party will definitely not be spared. Either she lost her rights in Aunt Zhang's place, or she was expelled from the Qin Mansion!
Because of Qin Wanyi's method, Ziyun's majestic image in the eyes of the maids was shattered at once. Moreover, Qin Wanyi also successfully stabilized her aura with the help of Ziyun, a stepping stone.
Regardless of whether the maids and maids of this Yilin Academy were loyal or not, but after this incident, they also understood that Qin Wanyi was a shrewd eldest lady and would never have the intention of betraying again.
A few grandmothers sighed and left, and Qin Wanyi finally asked people to blast Ziyun out of the yard.
In less than a night, what Qin Wanyi had done in Yilin Courtyard quickly spread throughout the Qin Mansion. Whether it was anyone who had seen Qin Wanyi or someone who had not seen Qin Wanyi, they all felt a burst of shock now.
In the early morning of the next day, Qin Wanyi dressed neatly and went to greet Mrs. Qin and Qin Langhong.
But in front of the hall, neither of them gave Qin Wanyi a good look.
In fact, Qin Wanyi had long expected such a result, after all, she was slandered by Aunt Zhang, saying that she was born with Mrs. Qin.
And Old Madam Qin believes in these things the most, no matter whether Qin Wanyi is cowardly or resolute, she will never be able to get Old Madam Qin's favor.
It is precisely because of this that Qin Wanyi's purpose in this life is not to please anyone, but just to fight for herself and her mother.
When Qin Wanyi saw Old Madam Qin, she immediately knelt down: "Wanyi asks grandmother for peace." ”
But after a long time, Old Madam Qin didn't mean to let Qin Wanyi get up at all, she said in a serious tone: "Since I married into the Qin Mansion, I have never seen a young lady with such powerful means as you. What an eye-opener for me today, Wanyi, you're so good! ”
Old Madam Qin said the words of praise in the most serious tone, and it was obvious that she was saying the opposite.
Although those teaching grandmothers were found by Aunt Zhang, they went to find Qin Wanyi in the name of Old Madam Qin.
Because Qin Wanyi embarrassed several grandmothers, this was tantamount to offending Aunt Zhang and Mrs. Qin at the same time.
Qin Wanyi also understood that this old woman had never looked at herself squarely, so why should she put down her body in order to please the other party?
"Grandmother has won the prize, and I learned a lot from teaching my grandmother yesterday. It's just that they said good things about me in my grandmother's ear, and Wanyi really didn't dare to take it. ”
Old Madam Qin showed an unnatural smile: "Yes, they said that you are not only very good at etiquette, but also knowledgeable. If you are a man, I am afraid that you can give the Qin family glory to the ancestors! ”
