Chapter 675: Shame on the Family
"The second aunt is too careful, of course I won't stay here for a long time, Mrs. is still waiting to discuss the marriage with me (Sun Yi's marriage with the Xu family), which girls in the Xu family are to be married, I must know better than outsiders, of course I have to help Mrs. choose the most satisfactory daughter-in-law this time." Xu Rou said lightly.
The tone may not be yin and yang, but with Yuan Yuan's emotional intelligence, how can he not hear the meaning of Xu Rou's words. Xu Rou is obviously saying that she, the daughter-in-law of the Sun family, is not satisfactory.
"What the hell are you trying to say? Wouldn't it just come to taunt me? Yuan Yuan said calmly.
"What do I want to do?" Xu Rou raised her eyebrows, "I think it's the second aunt, what do you want to do, right?" β
As she spoke, Xu Rou raised her hand and pointed to the layout of the scene,
"Embroidery, stroking the piano, tasting tea, chanting. Second aunt, life is very leisurely! Since marrying into the Sun family, second aunt, what have you done for the Sun family? β
Xu Rou asked,
"My second uncle was calculated by Yuan Shu many times back then, but in the end, he still ignored his previous suspicions, kept his marriage contract, and married you. And you? Leisurely all day long, living like an outsider, have you been a good helper? Look at Madame, you've been tired lately, but you're here embroidering! Second aunt, you will really enjoy it! β
"Then, there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is greater. Second aunt, don't you feel ashamed that you have been married for all these years, and you have no children under your knees? You can't give birth to a son yourself, don't delay my second uncle. β
"In addition, there have been some rumors outside recently, second aunt, don't say that you don't know anything. At the beginning, the second uncle tried his best to take in your Yuan family, how much pressure he was under, and now, people outside are bringing up the old things one by one to slander the second uncle. Second aunt, this matter started because of you, you can't be indifferent, right? β
Xu Rou looked at Yuan Yuan coldly and said.
At first, Yuan Yuan was still trembling with anger from Xu Rou's words, but in the end, she was completely quiet, calm and relaxed, as if nothing had happened.
"Madame signaled you to talk about this?" Yuan Yuan suddenly looked at Xu Rou and asked.
Xu Rou was stunned for a moment, then sneered again,
"Second aunt, Madame treats you so well, but you think of her like this, I really feel sad for Madame."
"Okay, I see, you can step down." Yuan Yuan picked up the tea bowl on the table and sent it off.
"You!" Xu Rou's eyes rose angrily.
"Why, isn't Madame still waiting for you to discuss the marriage?" Yuan Yuan said lightly.
"Second aunt, you are so self-conscious!" Xu Rou slammed the door and walked out.
Don't look at the fact that the two are also from the same family, and the age difference is not much, but the outstanding children cultivated by the Yuan family of the fourth and third princes are far from being comparable to the powerful in a place.
Just a few simple words, Yuan Yuan judged that this Xu Rou may be mixed with some unclear personal feelings, or maybe she really thinks that she Yuan Yuan is not worthy of Sun Quan, but this girl is obviously used as a gunman and doesn't know it.
Yuan Yuan knew that Mrs. Wu would definitely not instruct Xu Rou to do these things, but just a few simple hints or complaints and complaints were enough to drive Xu Rou to come to the door by herself!
First of all, how dare Yuan Yuan share worries? Mrs. Wu's strength is not only because she is a strong woman, but also because there is the Wu family standing behind her! Mrs. Wu needs someone to share her worries, and she will only find Wu Jing and other family members, if Yuan Yuan is really naΓ―ve, it will only make people think that she is ambitious and wants to seize power! In addition, Sun Quan is also in charge of Jiangdong recently, and there is a Sun Ce above Sun Quan, which round will get her Yuan Yuan to point fingers and make irresponsible remarks.
Secondly, without a queen, Sun Quan has no heirs, is it really the reason for her Yuan Yuan? How much effort Yuan Yuan has made for this, who knows? I can't say anything about it to outsiders.
Therefore, the first two points are just excuses, they are for the sake of gaining momentum, and the most fundamental reason is the last point - the Yuan family!
Yuan Shu called the emperor, which is the evidence of the crime that cannot be washed away, Sun Quan took in the Yuan family and married Yuan Shu's daughter as his wife, which has always been talked about. The reason why the old matter was brought up again this time and the public opinion was so big was that Yuan Yuan knew that there were three main reasons.
1. Sun Quan can even take in the traitor Yuan family, which shows that he doesn't care about the righteousness of the family and the country! Such a person cannot be followed by any righteous person. Although everyone knew that this was an excuse, many people used this as an excuse to disapprove of Sun Quan's rule and insisted on waiting for Sun Ce to return.
Second, the Yuan family, although it is Yuan Shu's family, is actually one family with Yuan Shao in the north. At the beginning, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were at odds, and this grievance was broken after Yuan Shu's death. Now that Yuan Shao is powerful, I believe that Yuan Shu is very willing to take refuge in Yuan Shao, and with the generosity and courage that Yuan Shao has always shown in front of the world, he will also be very willing to accept these clansmen. Therefore, the Yuan family is still suspected of collaborating with the enemy, which Yuan Yuan can't deny. The Yuan family and Yuan Shao in the north have always had correspondence in private, and once Yuan Shao really goes to war with the Sun family, I am afraid that there will really be clansmen who will secretly help Yuan Shao.
Third, the Yuan family has a profound heritage, and the children in the clan are all excellent and talented. Originally, the Yuan family, as a foreign family, had no foundation in Jiangdong and was difficult to develop, but now, Sun Quan has made a selection and wantonly weakened the power of the local scholars. Perhaps in Sun Quan's view, he is interested in the children of a poor family, and he hopes to recruit real talents, but in the eyes of many people, Sun Quan is simply opening the way for his wife's family!
Just imagine, once the selection department is operational, all the Yuan family are talents, wouldn't everyone be able to go on? In the past, the policy of the Han Dynasty was to promote filial piety and honesty, and the number of places in each family was limited, such as the Xun family, which was as good as Xun Yu, was very old to raise filial piety, no way, so many clansmen lined up. But now, Sun Quan has made reforms, and it is still in place in one step, which is equivalent to the national unified test paper of the college entrance examination and unified admission, so that some provinces and cities with weaker education may only have a few sporadic Tsinghua and Peking University, or even none of them! Replace provinces and cities with families, and replace Tsinghua University and Peking University with officials, isn't this going to cut off the queens of some families!
Sun Quan may not have thought that in the matter of selecting the department, the Yuan family helped him transfer a large part of his hatred. Many Jiangdong scholars still think that if there is no Yuan family, if Sun Quan does not marry Yuan Shu's daughter, he may not have done any selection at all!
Mrs. Wu told Yuan Yuan through Xu Rou's mouth, you have married into the Sun family, and after so many years of comfort, you should also do something for the Sun family.
Yuan Yuan slowly walked to the front of the embroidery, and suddenly smiled, and her delicate smile could not hide the tears in her eyes, this was the coat she specially embroidered for Mrs. Wu, and there was still one point that was almost finished. In addition, there are embroidered clothes for Sun Quan in the room, and clothes for future children.
"Dad, you're right, only if our family remains strong, others will always respect us. The daughter is unfilial, which brings shame to the family. β
