After discussing everything, the two little ladies said goodbye to Ke Mingxu and Mr. Zhou and went back to the courtyard. The time is approaching, Xie Chiying is going to ask for peace, and there is no time to rest.

It's better to go to bed and lie down for a while without being disturbed. But she was so happy that she couldn't sleep at all in the morning.

In the afternoon, when she was about to fall asleep in a daze, Xie Chiying came to look for her.

Jinghu had no choice but to sit up, lean on the head of the bed, and talk to her.

As soon as Xie Chiying entered the door, she accused her, "Why are you so useless, I don't have time to rest at all, and my spirit is better than yours." ”

Jinghu was not convinced, "It's not because your good cousin gave me half a cup of Longjing, saying that it was to make me remember it for a long time, so I didn't sleep well all morning." ”

Although it is a complaint, it is also a sweet complaint.

Xie Chiying was also amazed, "Cousin, he still plays tricks on people?" How I don't know. ”

"When I was in Yanjing, I also looked up and didn't look down after a few months, he always looked bitter and hateful, often without a smile, I was a little stunned, and I thought he had a bad temper."

Jinghu suddenly sobered up, "Brother Ke Shi, was he unhappy when he was at home?" ”

Xie Chiying nodded, "I think he's quite unhappy." It's just two people now, and since he went out, his whole person seems to be much stretched. Maybe this is the reason why Taishi Ke insisted on letting him go to Jiangnan. ”

Jinghu said: "Maybe it's because there are too many things in the court, so he is always tired." And also to take care of his mother. Sometimes the person who takes care of people is more painful than being taken care of, and it is a double torture of body and mind. ”

Xie Chiying teased her, "You understand very well, it seems that the relationship with my cousin is really not ordinary." He also agreed so easily to go to Old Madam Ning to intercede on my behalf. ”

Jinghu was a little fluttering, "Of course, if I am so good to him, he will naturally be good to me." Otherwise, it's the same as you said, I'm holding on to something. ”

"By the way, why did the sixth sister ask you to copy that flower insect butterfly shaft in Yu Province? They are so rich in the second room, what calligraphy and painting can't buy. ”

Xie Chijin sold the news of Feng Yunjian and Xie Shu to Xie Chiying, and what he wanted to ask her for was a copy of Yu Province's flower insect butterfly shaft.

Xie Chiying said: "She has already sent that painting to my room, I looked at it, there is nothing special, I don't understand why she wants this." The sixth sister is so smart, she must have her own plans, who knows. ”

That's right, Xie Chijin is indeed the kind of person who seems to be very smart. Wipe dominoes is also very powerful, Jing Hu has not been so nervous when wiping dominoes for a long time.

She and Xie Chiying are chess opponents, but they can't fight against Xie Chijin, an old Jianghu, and even the collection of dominoes can't compare to her.

The more this is the case, the more curious Jinghu becomes about her, "Which family is the husband's family that has basically been decided, Sixth Sister?" ”

Xie Chiying replied to her, "My eldest aunt was born in the Jinling royal family, have you ever heard of it?" It's the first person in Jiangnan besides our family. ”

"Because there is a daughter who is the daughter-in-law of Xu Shiyun, the current governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the Wang family has also had a good situation in recent years. All I know is that she is going to marry one of my aunt's nephews, but I don't know which one it is, and I have to inquire about it again or wait for the matter to be decided. ”

Jinghu suddenly sighed.

Xie Chiying didn't know why, "You can rest assured, a smart person like my sixth sister will definitely be able to live well no matter where she is." ”

Jinghu said: "I sighed for her cleverness." If a smart person like her is not in this world, if she is not a daughter, why should she marry someone who has never met and does not know how to behave? ”

"I also have to give up my preferences, play a lady, and please my mother-in-law and sister-in-law and husband in the future. Maybe you have to watch your husband take a concubine and give birth to children, and be a so-called 'virtuous person' trapped in the inner house for the rest of your life. ”

She felt that it was a pity that such a smart person would only be smart in the future, and his future wisdom could only be consumed in the firewood, rice, oil and salt day after day, from pearls to fish eyes, and he was oblique to everyone.

Xie Chiying also sighed, and then said, "Little county lord, you think like this, but fortunately you are a county lord." But even if you are the county lord, if you don't marry someone like my cousin in the future, I'm afraid you may not be able to live well. ”

"There is nothing wrong with your thoughts, if even we as women have been willing to be exploited and give up our rights as human beings that should be equal to men, then we will only be seen clearly and considered unimportant people who can be treated at will."

"But there are so few people who come to their senses. Do you think that the one who 'everyone is drunk and I am sober' is a wise man? ”

"No, she's the stupidest one. If you wake up and there are not enough people willing to fight, then you will only be 'shot in the head', obscurity, senseless sacrifice, and reduced to an even more miserable situation. ”

Xie Chiying was silent for a moment before continuing: "The reason why I say that Sixth Sister is smart is because she never thinks she is smart and sober, and she knows how to use some rights and rules in this world that can protect her, so that she can live a good life. ”

"We should do the same, not to put our own values above what the world thinks they are, not to rely on our husbands, and not to take the focus of our lives away from ourselves to please others."

Jinghu remembered the topic she had discussed with Ke Mingxu before, "The daughter of the King of Yongning County and Concubine Xu, the county lord of Jingling, the wife of someone in this world, the mother of someone, Jinghu." Whatever it is, I'm myself. ”

Xie Chiying smiled, "Yes, no matter what it is, we are all ourselves. So you don't have to worry about the sixth sister, and you don't have to worry about me, we will all have a good life, we are the daughters of the Xie family in Huai'an, and we all want to assist our husbands to enter the cabinet. ”

Of course, this is just a joke, and even someone as powerful as Ke Mingxu's mother didn't do it.

Speaking of such a topic would make people feel a little heavy after all, so Jing Hu asked something else, "What are you going to do about Feng Yunqi and your sixth brother?" Do you want to find a way to pierce it? ”

Xie Chiying blinked at her, "Other people's affairs, why should we be so unkind to reveal it?" I just feel sorry for my ninth brother, but since my third aunt knows it, then I don't have to worry about my ninth brother being deceived. ”

"There's no need to find a way to rectify the Feng family, she will always have her fate. Those who bully others will one day be bullied by others. ”

Jinghu smiled and didn't speak again.
