Chapter 7: Decide on education
"You still look down on my sister-in-law?" Once the two had an argument, Jimei roared, "The good life you live now is all given by my sister-in-law." The 'fine' snacks you eat are made in my sister-in-law's shop, the good clothes you wear are from the needlework room built by my sister-in-law, and you have maids and servants who are easy to use, and you use my sister-in-law's money. Even the house you live in and the furnishings you use don't have my sister-in-law's hard work, why do you look down on her? ”
"It's just a merchant who values profit over righteousness, what is there for me to respect. I heard that she didn't abide by the 'woman' virtue before, so she went to Tianjin Wei to have a big game and had a special play. Is this kind of behavior good? Say I use her? Ha, didn't my mother's family have a dowry? Can I eat a little more? And what can be used? I have nothing to do with her at all. Jimei, I advise you to have less dealings with her, lest your behavior become vulgar and philistine. In that case, you won't be the Jimei I married at the beginning. Besides, you are a man, but you have to rely on your sister-in-law, is it a shame to be ashamed? ”
"What's wrong with the merchants? Without merchants, where do you get your food and clothing from? You grew up drinking wind? Jimei was very disappointed in Xu, "Am I not the person you married when you first married?" I didn't expect you to be what I thought you were. Selfishness, snobbery, and self-incompetence. I'm going to ask my parents-in-law how they educated you. Where does your womanhood come from? Eat and sleep every day, sleep and eat, what else can you do? What kind of consciousness do you have about being a wife? Am I not a man? Do you want me to split up? ”
So the little couple quarreled again, and then the Xu family, as usual, quarreled together and went back to their parents' house, and the whole family had to scold Jimei for not knowing humility, so angry that Jimei had to run back, and then often did not go home, went out early and returned late, and the newlywed couples were cold to each other.
"Alas, I didn't expect that I had been 'fine' and carefully selected for so long, but I still married such a daughter-in-law." Mrs. Qi's head is extremely big, and her health has not been very good recently.
Mrs. Qi also sighed and said, "Therefore, marriage depends on personal luck, and it is also blind to see how many conditions there are before getting married." Yuan Jing's life is good, and she is such a good daughter-in-law as before, but my family has a hard life, and ......" Speaking of this, tears couldn't help but fall.
Ruyi couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw the two old men like this, and said angrily, "Let my brother divorce her and marry again, anyway, she has a lot of seven rules." With the second brother's character and talent, there will be many people who are willing to marry their 'daughters'. ”
Mrs. Qi snorted, "It's not easy to get out of a 'door' and enter a 'door', how can you divorce your wife easily?" Moreover, our Qi family's 'door' is innocent, how can this kind of thing happen, if it really comes to that point, won't it make people laugh to death? ”
Hearing that Ruyi was about to be blamed, Ruchu hurriedly stopped and said, "Ruyi, don't talk 'nonsense', your second sister-in-law is still young, and she will slowly become sensible in the future." In the final analysis, it is the Xu family's tutor who is not good, looking at the scenery, the scholarly 'door', and the loyal heirloom, but in fact, the 'daughter' has become a sky-high price to do superficial articles, poetry and etiquette, but the real character and demeanor are negligent. Mother is right, since we have married into the 'door', we have to be responsible for others, it is better for us to educate her slowly until she knows what it is to live a good life. Mother, are you a 'girl' school, and you can't clean up your daughter-in-law? In fact, in the final analysis, she is so crooked now because she has never regarded the Qi family as her own home, and she has no consciousness to provoke this family and contribute to this family. I always think that after marrying and being in my mother's family, I can only enjoy more happiness and not suffer a little, I always feel that she is superior to others, and marrying into the Qi family is the next marriage, and it is strange to live a good life. ”
Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Qi were also right when they heard it, although Qi Ruyi was a little reluctant, but she also agreed with Ruchu's opinion.
"We really spoil her too much, just thinking that she is young and a newcomer, and we have never set rules for her. But how do you educate her now? Mrs. Qi said embarrassedly, "She can't listen to anything at all, if it's serious, she should feel that our Qi family is bullying her together." ”
Ruchu thought for a while and said, "It's better to be cold to her for a few days, and then stab" and 'provoke' her, let her be the master of the house, and live alone with Jimei." The so-called inappropriate family does not know the value of firewood, and does not know the kindness of parents if they do not raise children. If she doesn't know that life is hard, she doesn't understand how happy her life is now. ”
"Isn't this a separation?" Old Mrs. Qi immediately objected, "I don't care what happens to your mother." But as long as I live for one day, I can't be separated. ”
"'Milk' and 'milk' are not real separations, they are fake separations." Ruchu smiled, "I still expect you to enjoy the blessings of the second grandson's husband and wife, how can Jimei really live alone?" ”
"So what is true and false? What kind of fake method is it? Mrs. Qi asked.
As he smiled, his 'chest' was ready, "I will be the one who is the wicked man, and the 'milk', 'milk' and mother can rest assured." ”
After two days, it was ready to "fight" as before.
She first found the two old men to explain the situation, and instructed, "If you hear a quarrel later, don't come out first, and when I laugh, my mother will appear, and you will promise whatever I say." Don't worry, how can I harm the Qi family? ”
When the two old men heard Ruchu say this, they temporarily let go of half of their hearts, and hid in a room closest to Jimei's place to eavesdrop on the wall. Seeing that the sun had risen high, Xu hadn't gotten out of bed yet, and couldn't help but be a little really angry.
In ancient times, people's life and rest were very regular, except for some corrupt officials or rich 'bastards' who sang songs every night and lingered in the Qinglou Chu Pavilion, there was very little nightlife, so most people went to bed early and got up early. Not being able to get out of bed on three poles in the day is seen as a sign of laziness. Even she, sometimes she is too tired to sleep, and the next day when she sleeps until the equivalent of eight o'clock in the morning, she is already considered lazy, and this situation is not often. And this 'girl', who is said to be the first talent in a certain place, actually slept until more than ten o'clock in the morning and couldn't afford it, although she didn't do any work every day.
As he looked left and right, he saw a clay pot planted in the courtyard with unknown 'flowers', and immediately stepped forward and kicked it. She has practiced, and she has kung fu on her 'legs', and naturally her feet are broken, and the noise is particularly harsh in the silent courtyard.
Then, as expected, she heard a dissatisfied voice coming from the house, "Meng'er, let's see what's going on outside?" It's so noisy, and you can't let people sleep? "It seems that Jimei didn't sleep in the house yesterday, it was Xu's personal maid 'girl' who slept with her, so it can be seen that the little couple quarreled again.
What a good relationship, the quarrel is gone, not to mention this kind of marriage with the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers? It seems that if she doesn't make a move, Jimei's marriage will not be saved. Although it is possible to remarry, this kind of thing is also a harm to a person like Jimei.
Jimei is good at everything, and people are cute, but she is impatient, quarrels a few words, and when she gets bored, she immediately escapes. In this way, if the problem is not solved, small things will become big disasters.
"Don't look at it, it's me, your sister-in-law." Ruchu said loudly, "What time is this, why can't you still get 'bed'?" It's so unbelievable! It's too much not to say hello to 'milk', 'milk' and mother, and even his father-in-law doesn't wait. Then why did our Qi family marry you? Is it to marry a 'milk' and 'milk' special 'door' for happiness? There is no such reason in the world. You come out for me, let's find someone to judge! Is this the family style of your scholarly 'disciple'? ”
