Speaking of which, the girls in the family have been accompanying their grandmother for more than two years, and it would be a bit unreasonable not to come back. What's more, Yingchun is already old enough to get married, and she has never seen Xing Shuang look at her, and outsiders are a little bit talkative.

The old princess of Beijing said with a straight face: "No matter how much you spoil your daughter, you should also have a measure. You look at each other late, this good young man in Beijing has been fixed, and you will regret it in the future. ”

Xing Shuang sneered and said: "What the princess taught me is that now they followed my mother to Jiangnan, saying that they brought them to increase their knowledge." I thought that we women would be trapped in this mansion all their lives, and that it would be rare for them to look outside, so I allowed them to play with my mother.

Now that he has praised Haikou and given them hope, he will suddenly recruit her back, but he is afraid that she will be resentful. It was I who found her a wonderful home again, and when she was old, she remembered the unfinished business and always had some regrets.

"I don't have anything else to ask for in this life, but I hope that my children can live their lives without regrets. While they are young, they are not allowed to enjoy themselves, and when they get married, where will they have the opportunity to be so happy. ”

Mother Jia was also busy excusing Xing Shuang and said: "I asked them to go, my old sister, you also know that a person who was in the palace back then, with her, her upbringing must be bad."

"Besides, she has a strange temper, and the way she teaches children is different from ours. You didn't look at my aunt and grandmother, and after only following her for a long time, her temper turned around. ”

When the old princess heard the name of Mrs. Xing, she didn't dare to reprimand Xing Shuang, so she had to say: "I'm just thinking about your eldest daughter-in-law, and I don't mean anything else." Now there are rumors outside, saying that she drove away her eldest son, and she didn't even care about the marriage of her eldest daughter. If you are indifferent, there is something even more ugly. ”

Xing Shuang has seen enough people's faces in her life, and now she is rich and rich, and she has the support of the emperor, so she is not afraid.

She smiled and said to the old princess: "What the princess said is reasonable, but this is a human being, who is not said behind his back?" No matter how good I do, there are those who are groundless, and they only talk about mine.

"Now I have seen it, I think that I treat my children equally, no matter what outsiders say, my children just remember my goodness."

When the old princess saw that Xing Shuang's oil and salt did not enter, she knew that she couldn't talk about her, and she had no reason to meddle in other people's affairs, so she shut up and stopped talking about this topic.

But in the evening, when the guests were gone, Jia Mu still left Xing Shuang down, and cautiously tentatively said: "Speaking of which, a few girls have been playing for all these years, is it time to come back?" ”

Xing Shuang hesitated in her heart, looked at Jia's mother for a long time, and finally gritted her teeth and said, "Mother is angry, I'm afraid that a few girls won't be able to come back for a while." ”

Mother Jia was stunned and hurriedly asked, "Why is this, but the old sister has a letter?" They're out there? Sick? ”

Xing Shuang shook her head: "They didn't follow my mother, I sent them out to study." ”

Mother Jia thought that something had happened to the girls at first, but when she heard that she was sent out to study, she was relieved and said with a smile: "What's this, didn't you say it earlier?" If this is the case, it would be good to be generous to the outside world that they went to study.

"Which academy is it? I heard that there is a girls' academy in Jiangnan, could it be that my old sister took them there? ”

Xing Shuang whispered: "It's not Jiangnan, it's England?" ”

Jia Mu frowned, but she didn't hear clearly: "Ying what?" How come I haven't heard of this place? ”

Xing Shuang pretended to be bold and said loudly: "I went to England, the country of foreigners." ”

When Jia Mu heard this, she was stunned for a long time, and then became furious.

"You're so daring!"

Xing Shuang hurriedly knelt down and said in a loud voice: "The old lady is angry, this foreigner's knowledge is not all bad, the old lady also uses the toilet, and Lian'er also got a knighthood because of the firecracker, which shows that this science is still useful." And I sent them there so that they could learn a long time.

"We have been in China for thousands of years, women are trapped in the back house, when have you had the opportunity to go out and see the world outside? I can't do it in this life, I can't let my daughters be like me. ”

Jia's mother scolded angrily: "As long as you know a lot of reason, you feel sorry for them?" I want them to be different, but you can't really ignore everything?

"You completely ignored the ancestral etiquette, and let them go out and show their faces. If this matter spreads, where will you put the face of the General's Mansion away! How do you want them to marry in the future?! ”

Xing Shuang said again: "So I kept it out and only said that I went with my wife." The old lady saw my mother's face, so let them learn something and come back. I promise that those children are very sensible and will never learn badly. ”

Jia's mother's chest was stuffy, and she raised her arm and pointed at Xing Shuang, unable to speak for a long time.

After a long time, Mother Jia sighed, put down her arm and said, "That's it, now you are the master of the house, and how to discipline the children in the family is also up to you." I'm old, I can't take care of these things, you can go yourself. ”

Xing Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, and was just about to stand up, when he heard Jia Mu say again: "In the future, your morning and dusk provinces will be completely exempted, oh no, all of your rooms can be exempted." ”

Xing Shuang's movements stiffened when she heard this, and her hands were still on the ground and she was ready to get up, but she couldn't move this time.

The cold temperature of the floor gradually soaked into the palm of the hand, making the whole body become cold as well.

She was stunned for a while, stood up from the ground silently, blessed a blessing, and said to Jia's mother in frustration: "Daughter-in-law retires." ”

After coming out of the Immortal Crane Hall, Xing Shuang's face remained dark. Back in Qingyuan, when the people saw her face, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to come out.

Jin Chuan couldn't stand it anymore, so he ran to Jia Jin, called Jia Jin up, and quietly told the sixth master what his wife looked like.

When Jia Jin heard this, he also hurried to Qingyuanju, and as soon as he entered the door, Jin Chuan stayed at the door, and Jia Jin went into the house to ask his mother: "Mom, what's wrong?" ”

Xing Shuang told Jia Jin about the events of that night, and Jia Jin tilted her head and said, "What does Mom think?" In fact, you can hide it from her old man for a lifetime, can't you? ”

Xing Shuang said: "I was thinking that your sisters would come back sooner or later, and when they came back, their changes would definitely arouse the old lady's suspicions." Instead of exposing it at that time and letting the old lady scold them, it is better for me to admit it first and let the old lady blame me.

"But I didn't expect her to be so resolute that she would directly cut off the relationship with us."

Jia Jin was surprised: "Can it be so serious? ”

Xing Shuang smiled bitterly and did not answer.
