Zheng Jiao walked out of her mother's room with one foot deep and one foot shallow, feeling like she was in a dream.

If it weren't for the dream, how could she have heard her mother say, "The Lord of the Kingdom hopes to open a female household, and has convinced the king, if you don't want to marry, we will wait for you to reach the age of eighteen, and give you a single family like we treat your brothers";

I also heard my father say, "The condition for establishing a household is that the woman must have a job, and at the end of the month, the Shaofu will fund the establishment of large textile factories in the major counties, and the Lord of the Kingdom hopes that the woman will be in charge." If you are willing, you will give up this old face for your father, and go to the king and the national witch to let you go to the factory to be an official and a half-job."

At that moment, her heart was beating so fast that she almost jumped out of her chest.

Almost subconsciously, Zheng Jiao wanted to blurt out and say "I do".

But she soon realized that she couldn't make such a hasty decision.

Zheng Jiao understands that if a factory for female workers is to be opened in Lulong City, it will not be her turn to hold an official position, and it will definitely be divided between the queen mother and the princesses.

This is not surprising.

There is nothing that the king wants to do, and others will naturally comply with the king, and they will show that they also like it, and they are very active and enthusiastic.

In other words, if she wants to work, she can only leave the royal capital and go somewhere else.

But she has never left the royal capital until now.

Moreover, does she really want to leave her parents when they are old, go to a strange place, and do something that she doesn't know if she can succeed?

Zheng Jiao was confused.

She stood in the water pavilion for a long time, and suddenly felt a warmth on her body, and turned her face to see that it was her mother who took a large coat and draped it over her.

The maids were very interested, and retreated to a position where they couldn't hear the conversation between the mother and daughter at all, and lowered their eyebrows.

"Mother-" Zheng Jiao bit her lower lip hesitantly, "I-"

Zheng's wife asked softly, "Are you afraid?" ”

Zheng Jiao nodded: "There is a little." ”

"Fortunately, Lord Guowu made this suggestion, otherwise, your father would probably give you to Zhou An." Zheng's wife said calmly, "I don't want to do it in my heart, but I can't find a reason to stop it." ”

Such a famous case, of course Zheng Jiao knows.

When she chatted with the handkerchiefs, they were full of sympathy for the Chen family, and felt that the Zhou family was a den of animals, except for the Chen family and Zhou An's mother and son, everyone else should die.

But...... Marry Zhou An?

Zheng Jiao's face was full of confusion, and she saw her mother pulling her to sit down, and said softly: "Your father thinks so, Zhou An is willing to stand up for his mother, and his virtue is commendable." He is committed to the righteousness of 'avenging his mother', and as long as he is not involved in a major case of rebellion in the future, he will be rich and comforted in his life, and he will definitely be worry-free. Plus—"

Zheng's wife paused for a moment before sighing lightly: "Coupled with the fact that the Chen family is tired of their appearance and encounters ups and downs, Zhou An will not pay so much attention to the appearance of his future wife. He is the same age as you, which is really a rare good match. ”

When Zheng Jiao heard her mother say this, she felt that this marriage seemed to be okay.

Although the mother's words imply that Zheng Jiao is not beautiful enough to attract the attention of men. Zheng Jiao was not angry, because she knew very well that this was an unavoidable fact.

Her brothers treat their sisters-in-law with courtesy and respect for their high-born, virtuous and dignified sisters-in-law, but their eyes only light up when they see the concubines with delicate faces and slender figures.

If she hadn't heard words like "female household, job", she might have nodded.

"That'...... Why is the mother against it? ”

"Chen's for Zhou An, he has paid too much." Zheng's wife looked a little stunned, "Such a mother is indeed impeccable." But no woman wants to have this kind of mother-in-law on her head. ”

Zheng Jiao was puzzled: "I heard that the Chen family is weak and not like a vicious person. ”

The evil mother-in-law tortured her daughter-in-law, of course, she heard a lot about handkerchiefs, some from poor families, and more from wealthy families.

Except for the princess, who can do whatever she wants, there are few other women who don't want to swallow their anger after marriage.

Even her mother was severely targeted by her eldest mother. As soon as the eldest brother and the second brother landed, before they could let their mother take a look, they were taken away by the eldest mother and kept by their side.

"Silly boy, you don't understand." Zheng's wife sighed, "Back then, your eldest mother repeatedly targeted me, but your father didn't say it, but he understood it in his heart. He knew that I had been wronged, and he privately subsidized me, so I didn't feel sad. Ke Chen's ...... Just because she has a weak temperament and has suffered so many sins, this is not easy to do! ”

If she is really a mean mother-in-law, Mrs. Zheng is not afraid.

Their family is the clan of Zhaoguo, and the relationship with Zongzheng is irreversible, Zheng Xi is the king's henchman, one of the nine Qings, no matter whose family the daughter marries into, the mother-in-law dares to show off her might, and her son can beat her mother first, so that her mother will not cause trouble.

It is not impossible to really provoke Zheng Xi, forcibly take his daughter away, divorce directly, and even get angry for his daughter and make his son-in-law's family half dead.

But it would be miserable to have a mother-in-law like Chen.

In case she wants her son to cry today, and cry tomorrow when she is sad about her fate, Jiaojiao is not a good speaker, and everyone thinks that Jiaojiao is disrespectful to her mother-in-law by virtue of her high birth, does Jiaojiao still have a way to live?

These things are unthinkable for men, but Zheng's wife can't ignore them.

Therefore, she held her daughter's hand and said very solemnly: "Jiaojiao, in this life, with your father's protection, although she has suffered hardships, she is also safe and happy." But to put it mildly, if the mother is young, the woman can set up a household. My mother will definitely find ways to make money and support herself. ”

Zheng Jiao was surprised: "You don't want a father!" ”

"This kid." Zheng's wife was full of sorrow and was beaten by this sentence, and couldn't help laughing, "How can you not want your father?" But if my mother can make money by herself, and can subsidize my uncle's family without relying on your father's money, power, and power, my mother will be even happier. ”

Zheng Jiao knew that her uncles all relied on their own families to live, and without their fathers, they would not be able to hold a half-official position in the royal capital.

But Zheng Jiao didn't know that her mother had never been proud of this, but she was extremely ashamed, just because her mother's family had been asking for it from her father, like vines clinging to a big tree.

"Mother-"

"Jiaojiao, you were born with our love, and you never know how to reach out to others, and my mother also hopes that you will not understand it for the rest of your life." Zheng's wife sighed, "Even if your father is very good to me, whenever I have to speak to him because of my mother's family, I can't straighten my waist." ”

Zheng Jiao seems to understand whether she understands or not.

She thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Me and my sisters-in-law, who do my mothers prefer?" ”

Zheng's wife scratched the tip of her daughter's nose and said affectionately: "The little one who has no conscience, isn't it you who my mother loves the most?" ”

"I see." Zheng Jiao said seriously, "Sisters-in-law are no longer bad to their mothers. There are many places that I can't care about or notice, and my sisters-in-law are very dedicated, but my mother still loves me. It can be seen that people get along with each other, even if they try their best, they may not be satisfied. ”

Zheng's wife didn't expect her daughter to be bold, comparing her to her, angry and funny, but she heard Zheng Jiao say: "But the work is different, serious and perfunctory, you can see it at once." ”

"It also takes effort, work can see results, but marriage may not be. So, I chose a job. ”
