The first thing Cui Mama did when she came back was to check if Shuning was lazy in the New Year. In fact, this is very certain, so Shuning took a few precepts, and began to practice walking, standing and sitting down again, fortunately she had a whim in the leisurely days after the full moon wine, and reviewed the palace rules and etiquette a little, otherwise it would have been worse.

Gradually, she picked up the things she had learned, and slowly added new content, eating, drinking, tea, talking, and holding things, laughing, laughing, bowing her head, eating and drinking bad things, and so on. This part of the content is not difficult, Shuning has been used to it since she was a child. It's just that later Mama Cui asked someone to buy a bunch of coarse porcelain dishes for five cents a piece, and broke them around her from time to time, asking her to be immobile in the face of accidents. At first she would be startled every time, and after a few days she just raised her eyebrows, and after a few more days, she had turned a blind eye.

The things that are recited are no longer palace rules and etiquette, but something that is relatively difficult to express. Originally, it was the family background, origin, temperament, hobbies, and taboos of all the concubines in the palace; Then there was the name and duties of the eunuch and palace maid who served in the palace, and Shuning saw the name of Aunt Minglan last time; Then there is the situation of the princely palaces. Only then did she know that the popular Prince Kang and the declining Prince Xun Mansion used to be the same family, and they were both descendants of Prince Li's family; And Prince Jane's mansion, where Tongying is located, is actually in the same vein as Prince Zheng she heard about when she was a child.

Speaking of which, there are so many brothers and sisters in the Tongying family, all together. In the Spring Festival of this year, he just added a little brother, ranking twelfth among the brothers alone, and his biological mother is the favored Shufu Jin Wang. Although Tongying's stepmother's surname was Borzigit, she was not the daughter of a Mongol prince. 's father is only a first-class guard of Zheng Sanpin, but the side Fujin Gao is the daughter of the captain of Sanpin Light Car, and the two are fighting fiercely at the moment.

It seems that Prince Jane's Mansion is really complicated. No wonder Tongying ran out in three days. She thought about herself, did she want to marry into such a family? She hesitated. With a big family like Earl's Palace, she couldn't stand it anymore, and Prince Jane's Mansion seemed to be even more ......

However, when she thought of Tongying's good place, she felt that she should not be shaken. Just as he was thinking about it, Mama Cui called over with a foot. Said: "Why is the girl distracted?" Please be serious! Shuning pursed her lips and recited the book again. Xiao Liu saw it under the corridor and hurriedly walked over to ask Mama Cui for mercy.

Xiao Liu and Xiao Bao have not left these days, and have been living in Huaiyuan. I don't know if she got something from the Tong family, she takes very good care of Shuning, takes care of her diet personally, and often makes things for her. She rarely interferes with Mama Cui's teachings, but she is very incomprehensible about Shuning's beating, and she will open her mouth to intercede every time she sees it. But Mama Cui is worshiped by the Tong family. How can you see one of your uncle's side rooms? So every time it was dismissed.

Shuning saw that she was a little contemptuous of Xiao Liu's mother and son, and she was annoyed, so she said with a straight face: "Although Mama is old. But you shouldn't be so rude to your aunt. Then he didn't say much, just pulled Xiao Liu and left. A hint of surprise flashed across Cui's face. But he soon regained his composure, and just raised his voice: "The girl has not memorized the book yet." Can't walk away. "Shuning just can't hear it.

She pulled Xiao Liu back to the room and persuaded the other party to take Xiao Bao back to Fangshan as soon as possible: "Brother Xiao Bao still has to go to class, not to mention that the spring farming is busy, there should always be a master over there." Xiao Liu smiled and said: "You have listened to the gossip in the house, and you are afraid that I will be wronged, right?" Afraid of what? I don't care about that now. The old lady is not here, and I can't do it if I leave you and go back to Fangshan to live a peaceful life. I didn't know it before, but now I see you being beaten, and I don't feel at ease. Besides, the General's Mansion sent someone to see Jiu or send food or something, and it was not good for our family to receive someone with an older generation, so we couldn't count on the eldest lady's side for everything. ”

Although Shuning knew that she was reasonable, she still refused to give in: "Mama beats me and looks heavy, but it doesn't hurt, these people all know how to measure, if they hit hard and leave a scar, it will be bad." So my aunt doesn't have to worry. She said that Xiao Liu reluctantly gave in and promised to let his son go back to Fangshan first, and she waited for Duanning and his family to return to the General's Mansion to live in the opposite month, but then they would go back to the Earl's Mansion every ten days and eight days to live for a few days.

Shuning couldn't twist her, so she had to respond, thinking that at least Xiaobao wouldn't be bullied by her cousins, which was also good. When she said goodbye to Xiaobao, she also told him not to patronize his studies, and to go out for a walk every day, even if the tenants were farming. Xiaobao solemnly responded, and leaned into her ear and said, "Sister is at home, take care of my mother more." Sister-in-law's Qixi and Bafu, yesterday I said bad things about my mother. Shuning frowned and nodded in agreement.

It turned out that among the girls who Zhenzhen married, Qixi and Bafu were two of them who looked a little good, and their hearts were a little high, and when they came, they regarded the girls waiting around Duanning as a thorn in their eyes, and they talked from time to time. After Duanning announced the rules of the Mei Courtyard, they calmed down for a few days, and later saw that Duanning was busy with business, and the housekeeping was all handled by his own young lady, except for the second sister-in-law who occasionally taught them a few words, no one would take care of it, so they became bold.

Although Xiao Liu's family is Zhang Bao's second room, in fact, she has not been favored for many years, and the people under the name of the third room will naturally not despise her, but they can't keep the people in the Earl's Mansion chewing their tongues. Qixi and Bafu didn't know the details, so they underestimated her.

Zhenzhen has only been married for more than half a month, and it can be said that she is still on her honeymoon, and she and Duanning are so good that they don't care too much about other things. Although some people mentioned to her that the two girls were restless, she thought of Jiu'er and the others leaving their parents and relatives and accompanying her to marry into this family, so she relented and didn't want to wronged them too much.

Even so, as the days went by, she felt that something was wrong. Her in-laws are not at home, she is still comfortable on the land of the third room, and many rules do not need to be strictly followed. But after all, the Earl's Court is a generation of lords, which is very different from her mother's family, and she is very particular about etiquette, for example, she and Duan Ning ate at the same table in their own house, and the second sister-in-law met Duan Ning at most two words, but if the people in the room knew, the Nala or Shen family would ask her to teach her the truth that "the new daughter-in-law is not allowed to serve at the table for the first year after entering the door". She gradually felt that it was not easy to live in a big family, and she became careful. In this case, her girl will offend her father-in-law's side room. She couldn't help but be angry.

After teaching seven joys and eight blessings, she specially invited Xiao Liu over and apologized to the other party. also ordered the two girls to serve tea and accompany the sin. Although Qixi did so, there was still a look of anger on his face. So he angrily asked her to go and kneel under the porch.

In fact, Xiao Liu didn't care too much about this. She has been in the door for several years, and now she has a stable position in the third room, and her son has a good future. On the day of Duanning's marriage, Zhang Bao also took Xiaobao to meet relatives and friends, and introduced that it was his son. And Tong also promised to send Xiaobao to Zhenghongqi official school when he turned twelve years old. She can be said to be doing everything smoothly now, she is older, she has more scriptures, and she believes in Buddhism, so she doesn't pay attention to these gossips more and more.

When she arrived at Meiyuan, she was going to say that it didn't matter, but because she remembered what Shuning had said, she remained silent and looked at Zhenzhen with cold eyes. After taking a sip of tea, he said with a pleasant face: "The rules in this mansion are also big, and the young grandmother is still young." Marrying into our family, there must always be something unaccustomed. I wasn't used to it when I first arrived. It's been a long time. That's the thing. It's just that young grandmothers should be more attentive, being a new daughter-in-law is different from being a daughter-in-law. There are a lot of things to pay attention to. What's more, this big business is big, there are many people, the first thing is to be cautious in words and deeds, this time fortunately it's me, if you meet other aunts, you can't tell. ”

Zhenzhen nodded and was taught, but Jiu'er and Bafu next to him didn't like it, and the latter also said: "According to what my aunt said, Ripping America 5200 Law, is it possible that our girl, as the eldest daughter-in-law of the third room, still has to be pressed by other people's concubines?" Zhenzhen angrily scolded: "Shut up! Dare you also want to kneel under the porch, don't you? You go too! The Beatitudes muttered aggrievedly and went obediently.

Zhenzhen confessed to Xiao Liu's family, but Xiao Liu's shook his hand, and suddenly changed the topic: "Speaking of which, the old lady is not at home, but the housekeeping over there in Huaiyuan is handed over to Sister Shu'er and the second sister-in-law, Changfu takes care of the external affairs, and the young grandmother can only take care of the Mei Courtyard, and the few errands originally sent by the second sister-in-law were also taken back." I wonder if the young grandmother feels that it is blocked? ”

Zhenzhen hurriedly said: "This is my mother-in-law and my second sister-in-law who love me, I want me to have more time to be with my husband, I don't care." Her face flushed slightly, but she meant it sincerely. It's just that Jiu'er behind her obviously disagrees with her, but she just keeps silent.

Xiao Liu smiled faintly and said: "Young grandmother, in fact, Huaiyuan is bigger, if you can manage Meiyuan well, you will naturally be able to manage more, but if you can't even cure the maid ring under your hand, how can your wife rest assured that she will hand over the home to you?" Although I don't like what I say, I really mean it. ”

Zhenzhen was a smart person, and soon understood what she meant, and hurriedly sat up straight and said solemnly: "Thank you aunt for mentioning it, I am young and ignorant, and please ask my aunt to teach me more." She respectfully refilled tea for Xiao Liu, and sat back in her original seat with her head bowed.

Xiao Liu was also happy to see her like this, and glanced at the two maids, Zhenzhen found out, and immediately asked Jiu'er and Liuru to go out, and then obediently listened to the lecture.

Xiao Liu said with a smile: "Young grandma doesn't have to be so nervous, in fact, it's nothing, it's just the thoughts of these girls, I guess you and I know it in our hearts." I'll give you a few more words of advice, and I'll quickly dispel this idea. The wife has good things to say in other things, but she hates the fact that the family girl accepts the house and becomes a concubine. Didn't you notice that the few girls around Brother Duan'er didn't look outstanding? This is Mrs. Calming Your Heart. ”

Jinjin was a little surprised. She also obeyed Mrs. Wen's wishes, and brought a few maids over to prepare for Duanning in the future, although she was sour, but she was also frightened by Mrs. Wen's words about spoiling the concubine and killing his wife, so she agreed to this arrangement aggrievedly. Because of this, she knew that Qixi was courteous to Duan Ning, and she also turned a blind eye, but Duan Ning was not moved at all, which made her feel extremely happy and sweet.

But now, according to the meaning of this Aunt Liu, is it true that the mother-in-law does not want to see this kind of practice? So did she conniving at her subordinates to do this, did she live up to her mother-in-law's kindness?

As soon as Xiao Liu saw her expression, he guessed her thoughts, and said with a smile: "It's common for other families to accept people in the house, but my wife saw the affairs of several brothers and nephews in this house, and she suffered a loss in her early years, so she didn't like it." The person brought by the young grandmother, after the wife saw it, although she didn't say anything, she actually had an idea in her heart, but she didn't say it because she pitied the young grandmother. But I really don't want to see you go against her will, so I just say it more. The people around the young grandmother, if they have this thought. It's better to dispel it as soon as possible. ”

Zhenzhen didn't expect that she had made such a mistake, and she was nervous in her heart, and she was busy asking Xiao Liu for other things. I found that many things were a little different from what I thought, and I couldn't help but be very annoyed.

In the evening, she talked to Duan Ning about this in private. Duan Ning smiled: "I'm still wondering when you will find out about this." I said a long time ago, I only want you alone, and I don't plan to take a concubine to take a house, and you still coax you with me. Zhenzhen said angrily: "Men love to talk flatteringly, how do I know that you are not coaxing me?" ”

Duan Ning smirked. After a while, he said, "Now you know?" My mother didn't let Amarna take a concubine, and my sister almost thought the same thing. When I was a child, I had a concubine, and because I was favored, I dared to poison our brothers and sisters. Since then, I have felt that concubines are not good, it is enough for the husband and wife to live, and there is no need to insert another one. You see that my Ama Eniang has been married for 20 years and is still so loving, and we are just like them. Isn't it good? ”

Zhenzhen lowered her head and blushed, but soon realized that something was wrong: "Then what happened to Aunt Liu?" What are you trying to do with me? Duan Ning thought about it, and whispered in her ear the truth about Xiao Liu's concubine. At the end, he said solemnly: "This is my family's secret, you just know it." Don't say it. Don't even tell you about your family and a few girls. Zhenzhen was stunned for a long time before nodding.

She now finally knew that there were many mistakes in her original idea of this home. So no longer just care about living a honey life in his own courtyard, often invite Xiao Liu and the second sister-in-law to talk, if there is something I don't understand, I will ask them and Changfu, if Shuning is free, she will also come to talk to her sister-in-law, and the things to inquire about are no longer limited to cooking and soup, but even the rules of the family and the preferences of the in-laws.

Shuning was very satisfied that she had finally begun to return to real life, and she taught her not to mention, but also instructed her to ask the Li family and the Xitara family for advice. She said: "Although we have our own rooms on weekdays, we always live in the same house, and Ama Eniang is not there, and it is good for my sister-in-law to go to my aunts and aunts to say goodbye." The eldest sister-in-law should go more often, she is already in charge of the house, although she has few words, she is actually a very good person to get along with. I want to learn the rules, I can't tell you everything, why don't you ask her more? ”

After listening to her words, Jinzhen went to visit the Lee family and the Hitara clan from time to time, and after getting along for a long time, she felt more fortunate to her. Li has to set rules in front of her mother-in-law every day, although she is in charge of the house, she can't share the table with her husband's in-laws when eating, but she has to stand next to her and wait.

Compared with her, she married into the third room, she didn't have to set rules in front of her in-laws, her husband and sister-in-law treated her very well, compared to the real eldest daughter-in-law Li, she was really lucky.

Zhenzhen has been extremely careful since then, and she has also paid attention to etiquette, and a few girls under her hand are even more strict, and Nala and Shen have also praised a few words. Zhenzhen became more and more cautious, and when she returned to her parents' house to live in the opposite moon, she was almost the same as before she got married.

Mrs. Wen was very taken aback, and couldn't help but sigh: "That kind of big family is really different, the girl has just been married for a month, and it is like a different person, and everything is exquisite." ”

Zhenzhen sighed and said, "What else do you say, what did Erniang teach me before?" I thought that everyone was really like that, and it turned out to be a lot ugly. Fortunately, my mother-in-law is not as knowledgeable as me, and the family is also considerate, otherwise I would have made people laugh to death. She also focused on the fact that Tong's dislike Yahuan received the house, and said: "Qixi that girl, as soon as she passed, she would get into trouble, how did Erniang pick it in the first place?" Beatitudes is also not a fuel-efficient lamp. ”

Mrs. Wen was a little sneering: "These two girls are born in our house, they are reliable, and there are young people who are not sensible." But I'm also well-intentioned. Who knew your mother-in-law was so weird? ”

Zhenzhen wanted to explain the reason, but she felt that it was a secret of her husband's family, so she didn't say anything, but said: "In short, those girls, Jiu'er didn't dare to go against my will, Liuru was also honest, and the other two, Erniang beat and knocked more, and they all thought I was confused." ”

Mrs. Wen answered, chatted about some trivial matters, and asked about Shuning's situation. Jinjin said a little strangely, "What do you ask her for?" Now she is learning the rules every day, and it's weird, I feel pitiful when I see it. I was exempted from the election, which is really a great grace. ”

Mrs. Wen pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, it's good to tell you, you can help say a few good words." Your Ama and second brother have taken a fancy to your sister-in-law, and plan to propose to your mother-in-law as soon as she loses the election, and marry her to your second brother. ”

Zhenzhen was stunned, and said with a sinking face: "What nonsense are you talking about?!" ”
