The road in front of the new courtyard is wide, and the people on both sides have whispering voices from time to time, and the Gu family's door number is newly hung on the lintel, and Gu You is smiling at the brothers Cheng Kejia and Gu Dingyang who are standing beside him.

In the summer, Gu You was willing to add silver to the people who did the work, the yard was renovated quickly, it took a week to renovate the yard, and then it took a week for Cheng Kejia to simply decorate the yard, and then choose a good day, and the family moved back to their yard from the inn to live.

Gu You first came, everything was just beginning, when he came, he only brought two subordinates, when he moved to a new house, those two subordinates came to congratulate, and their families have not followed for the time being.

Cheng Kejia initially thought that the two subordinates only stayed in Yangzhou City for a short time, so it was not convenient to bring their families over.

As a result, Gu Youze's words opened up a new world for her, and she truly saw the unkind side of the elders in her family.

These two subordinate husbands and wives were affectionate, and they originally had the intention to bring their wives and children to Yangzhou together, but the elders in the family were weak and needed someone to serve them wholeheartedly, so their wives and children could only stay and fulfill their filial piety.

The elders in the family originally considered that the two subordinates were single and would have all kinds of inconveniences, so they had the intention to send the concubine room to the two subordinates.

The two subordinates took the Gu family's family style as an example, and then directly rejected the kindness of the elders in the family on the grounds that Gu Youze's wife was from a family.

Cheng Kejia listened to Gu Youze's words, she was a little surprised and said: "If your parents are really sick and weak, and you can't fulfill your filial piety as a son, you can serve as a wife, but your two subordinates have a little weaker kinship." ”

Gu You looked at Cheng Kejia and smiled slightly, and said: "The children of people like us will voluntarily follow the path of their predecessors, but ordinary people, most people, choose this path, and they are initially forced by all kinds of unsatisfactory conditions. ”

Cheng Kejia understood the meaning of Gu Youze's words, and she was already reluctant to give up Gu Dingyang's brothers in her heart, not to mention how ordinary mothers would be willing to bear such hardships for their beloved children.

Gu You could see Cheng Kejia's soft-hearted appearance, he would rather his wife be a soft-hearted and kind-hearted person, rather than his wife's cold-hearted nature.

Cheng Kejia looked at Gu Youze, and said curiously: "Will the two of them be willing to be controlled by the elders in the family like this?" ”

Gu You smiled slightly and said, "There is no one around them to take care of, and when the elders recover, they will naturally take their wives and children to their side." ”

Cheng Kejia looked at Gu You and smiled slightly, and said: "It's good that they are not stupid, there are not many people like our Cheng family in this world, if they are too stupid, then the husband and wife will be separated, and the relationship between father and son will be indifferent, and they will not be able to complain about others." ”

Cheng Kejia looked at Gu You and smiled slightly, and she gradually understood in her heart why he was able to let go of Yuan's wife and daughter so quickly after the general went back.

Their husband and wife have been separated for too long, the relationship between the two is jerky, and Cheng's is old at home, and there is only one daughter between them, and Cheng's body may not be able to continue to regenerate.

In such a situation, the selfishness of the man, coupled with the selfishness of the family, naturally makes the most advantageous choice.

As a result, there is cause and effect in the world, Cheng's mother and daughter returned to their parents' house without regrets, and the man was finally empty.

Gu You listened to Cheng Kejia's words, he sighed softly and said: "People like us have heard about that general, he is really a person with great wisdom, but he was a little more selfish later. ”

Cheng Kejia looked at Gu You and smiled slightly, and said: "When the Cheng family gets married later, they will pay attention to the family style of their in-laws. ”

The first two generations of women in the Cheng family married into their husbands' families, and they had a hard life, in fact, part of the reason had a great relationship with themselves, they were too happy and dedicated, so that their husbands' families were used to their contributions.

The third old lady of the Cheng family quietly told Cheng Kejia that the Cheng family used to face the teachings of women in some rules, and there was nothing wrong in the big picture, but in fact, there was still a mistake in the small way.

The Cheng family's teaching of women is too orthodox, and in the end, it is easiest to mislead women into working hard and gaining nothing in their lives.

There are some things that can't be said on the surface, can the Cheng family say to the outside world, we don't want women to work hard in their husband's family for a lifetime?

Only the concubines are the masters, and their own pattern is not large, and they will naturally use less thought to teach the concubines, and the concubines will be able to experience some human sophistication since they were young, and they will not be stupid again and again after marrying into the husband's family in the future.

Cheng Kejia listened to the analysis of the three old ladies of the Cheng family, she was stunned for a while, it turned out that the masters of Pingyuan were so valued and cared for by the eldest family, and they still had such intentions, not completely because of their family's good intentions of not marrying for their lives?

The third old lady of the Cheng family looked at Cheng Kejia with a slight smile and said, "Jia'er, since your aunts' generation, the Cheng family has cultivated a group of embroidery girls, and they no longer need the hard work of their own women."

The women of your aunt's generation who are married are better off in your husband's family than your aunt's generation, and when it comes to your generation, there are few of you who are very outstanding in embroidery.

Even the two daughters of the eldest room are finally passable in this regard, but their embroidery skills are not as good as their ancestors.

You take a look at your embroidery skills, you only learned the ancestral stitching of the Cheng family, and your sister Ling'er is only so little better, after you can make people look at the needlework a little, we as elders will let you go, right? ”

Cheng Kejia nodded lightly, she originally thought that it was because her embroidery skills were too scummy, and the elders in the family gave up out of sight and out of mind, it turned out that the elders in the family didn't want them to live those hard days anymore.

Gu You took a look at the expression on Cheng Kejia's face, and sure enough, as his brothers-in-law said, the Cheng family's woman's heart knot about that aunt and grandmother was not so easy to disperse.

Cheng Kejia arranged the family affairs smoothly, there were trees and a lake in the new yard, but the lake was fenced, and the Gu Dingyang brothers could only go to the lake for a walk in the company of adults.

The weather is very hot, Cheng Kejia likes to take her two children to sit in the backyard, where there is a lake, it is always cooler than elsewhere.

When the Gu family first moved in, Cheng Kejia asked the cook to make some snacks on the second day, and the Gu Dingyang brothers took the little maid to the neighbors' houses, and then the Gu family naturally received a similar return gift.

Gu You was at home on the day he moved in, and he didn't return home for several days, and then he returned home very late, all when it was already dark.
