Chapter 47: Straightening Out
It turned out that in the morning, the Yang family looked for her and asked about Xu Jing's visit to Zeng Rong's sisters yesterday, and Zhao Dasheng's family told the truth, not only learned what Zeng Rong and Zeng Hua said to Xu Jing, but also specially mentioned the things that Zeng Rong's sisters purchased by themselves, and also mentioned the rent.
"You mean these two really want to feed themselves with their own hands?" Yang always felt that things were not so simple.
Two little village girls who have never even gone out of the town, happened to save a noble son from the capital, so they dared to repay the favor, and followed the family into the capital, saying that they were not good maids to find things to do by themselves, but they asked the Xu family to provide a place to live and the Xu family to introduce work, if these two people really have no plans, she doesn't believe it.
No, to be exact, it's this one who is the elder sister, and the little one is only six years old after all, so there's nothing to worry about.
"Mrs. Hui, this is what Ah Rong said, but the slave maid thinks that this little girl does not speak and act like a child of this age, and her mind is too deep to see through." Zhao Dasheng's family also expressed their opinions.
These words reminded Yang, "It's not that the mind is too deep to see through, how can a normal twelve-year-old child have these scheming?" Not to mention a child from the countryside, even at my age, I'm afraid I can't be as delicate as her. Yang remembered last night's meeting, but it was not exquisite, which of the wives and aunts of the Xu family was not impressed by her, saying that she could not see the village atmosphere and restraint in the countryside, on the contrary, she spoke quite elegantly, and the etiquette was also thoughtful.
"No matter how smart she is, she can't compare with her wife, what is her background, what is her background?" Zhao Dasheng hurriedly comforted.
Yang shook his head, "It's because of her different backgrounds that I doubt her original intentions. That's it, let's not think too much, the left and right Jinglang are still young, and it's not too late to look at it for another year or two. ”
If it weren't for his son, the Yang family would not be willing to maliciously figure out the original intention of a little girl in the countryside, no matter what, it is a fact that the sisters saved her son, and she should also treat others kindly.
Zhao Dasheng's family knew the ambivalence of their master, so she gave an idea, Zeng Rong still had some silver taels in his hands, so it was better for them to simply let them go and let them live by themselves, as for the rent, the Xu family could not afford to lose this person.
Also, since the Bai family promised to let Zeng Rong go to work, it is better to let Zeng Rong go to work early, the embroidery girls in the embroidery workshop are generally very busy, if Zeng Rong really becomes an embroidery girl, he will not have time to hook up with Xu Jing.
As for this Zeng Hua, Zhao Dasheng's family also felt that she couldn't relax, don't look at her young age, she can't stand Xu Jing's liking, she hasn't forgotten Xu Jing's knock on Zeng Hua last night, she has never seen Xu Jing do it to others in such an intimate move.
But the problem is that this Zeng Hua is too small, and Zhao Dasheng's family can't think of any way to send her farther away for a while, so they can only let her go for the time being, but they can't do it, so they can only keep an eye on themselves.
The Yang family accepted the proposal of Zhao Dasheng's family, and really went to find the Bai family, and the Bai family gave the Yang family this face, and promised to order someone to take Zeng Rong to work early the next morning.
No, Zhao Dasheng's family came to pass the word as soon as he was on duty.
Because the room where Zeng Rong lived did not have a special desk or bookshelf, nor did there be a screen partition or anything, as soon as Zhao Dasheng's family came in, he saw those books and pen, ink, paper and inkstones piled on the kang table, and was surprised, so he stepped forward to pick it up and flip through it.
"Girl, are you going to go to school?" Zhao Dasheng asked, flipping through the "Analects" in his hand.
Because the Xu Mansion has its own school, both men and women must enter the school after the age of five, so Zhao Dasheng's family thought that Mrs. Xu agreed to let Zeng Rong and Zeng Hua enter the Xu family's women's school.
"No, I heard that people will understand a lot of truths after reading and reading, but it happened that I learned a few words with the gentlemen during the time I lived in the academy, and I didn't want to be wasted, so I specially bought a few books to consolidate and consolidate, and by the way, I also learned some truths in the books." Zeng Rong explained.
"What about practicing calligraphy?" Zhao Dasheng's family looked at this pile of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, not as simple as a beginner's small fight and a few strokes of red, how to look at it like the rhythm of entering the school.
"This, I heard that if you write a good hand or draw a good picture, it will also be beneficial to your embroidery skills, and Ahua is only six years old, which just happens to let her follow the enlightenment."
No matter who Zeng Hua can marry in the future, it is better to be able to read and hyphenate than to be blind, if she is lucky, maybe she can find a wishful husband for her.
As for Zeng Rong herself, after a night of precipitation, she put herself in the right position, what she can do at present is to improve her embroidery skills and fame, and strive to earn a sum of money in five years, and open a big embroidery workshop by herself in the future, so that she can make friends with the daughters of these big families, and it is possible to break up the marriage between Xu Jing and Wang Chuchu.
And marriage, this life is hopeless for her.
She just wanted to watch him from afar, guard him, protect him, and do her best to let him avoid the catastrophe in the previous life, which was enough for her.
Zhao Dasheng's eyes suddenly flashed a trace of sadness in Zeng Rong's eyes, his hands were clenched, obviously trying his best to restrain something, and he couldn't help but be surprised, what did this girl go through, and what would she want?
Zeng Hua was too familiar with Zeng Rong's expression, and at first glance, he guessed that she was distracted again, and maybe he remembered her past life again.
Zeng Hua was sure of one thing, his eldest sister was definitely from the capital in her last life, otherwise, she would not be so familiar with these streets in the capital, and it would be impossible for her to fully understand their words, let alone bargain with them in local words.
There is another point, I am afraid that this eldest sister had a good family background in the last life, otherwise, she would not be able to read and write, and she also knows how to embroider, no matter what occasion she faces, she is not stage frightened, but unfortunately, she died unjustly for some reason.
The reason why Zeng Hua decided that this eldest sister died unjustly was because of her own personal experience on the one hand, and on the other hand, because of Zeng Rong's own wandering from time to time and the sad color in her eyes.
Therefore, seeing Zeng Rong fell into his own thoughts again, Zeng Hua hurriedly stepped forward and pushed her, "Eldest sister, should we pour a cup of tea for Mother Zhao, we will buy tea today." ”
"Well, I should go back and see my two little ones, dinner hasn't been done yet, you two are busy." After Zhao Dasheng's finished speaking, she got up and went out of the door, just walked out of the door for less than two steps, listened attentively, and saw that there was no movement in the house, she went back in, "Look at me this fool, I forgot to say anything serious, and I talked about it for a long time." ”
Zeng Rong was not surprised at all to learn that the Yang family had exempted their rent, but when he learned that the Yang family had gone to the Bai family and said that she could go to work tomorrow, Zeng Rong was a little surprised, this is not like the Yang family's style, it must have been Xu Jing's visit yesterday that stimulated her.
agreed on a time to see Bai the next day, and Zhao's mother really left.
