Aunt Shui said obediently: "Master, don't worry, I will teach my daughter well." Originally, Mingzhu and Miss Mingyue had a very harmonious relationship with each other, and it will only get better in the future. After all, blood is thicker than water. ”

Qin Ping nodded. Think about it, on your daughter's side, just leave it to Aunt Shui. But the two younger sisters are still in the hands of the old lady and are called by the maids. If you tell the old lady to let my sister out to learn things, I'm afraid that the old lady will not will. This matter is not a trivial matter, there is nothing left or right for him, it is better to take advantage of this time to go in person and go to the old lady to ask people out.

After making up his mind, Qin Ping said to Aunt Shui: "In a while, I'll go to the old lady's place." ”

Aunt Shui was busy sending off her husband.

After Qin Ping left, Qin Mingzhu and Qin Minghuan, who had been dissatisfied all the time, but were stopped by Aunt Shui with her eyes, were reluctant with bitter faces.

Qin Mingzhu took Aunt Shui's hand and said bitterly: "Mother, how can you agree to let the two of us sisters suffer?" I also want to ask the two of us sisters to befriend Mingyue's stinky girl. Didn't you see that that day, how could that stinky girl have you in her eyes? Not only do they treat you as a slave, but they also humiliate you and bully their daughters? It's enough for us not to retaliate against such a person, do we still have to go to the pole to slap her? ”

Aunt Shui remembered that she was bullied by Mama Ma that day, and she was ashamed. Since she entered the Guogong Mansion twenty years ago, even the main lady and Mrs. Yin have been defeated under her. How has she ever been wronged in this country of rites? However, that day, in the hands of Mama Ma, their mother and daughter were bullied.

This hatred, where can Aunt Shui forget? However, these hatreds are naturally not worth mentioning when compared with the future of the two daughters in the future.

Therefore, Aunt Shui calmed down her mood and said gently: "Mingzhu, Minghuan, you are all your mother's own flesh and blood." Mother never loves you? In this house, there is a mother to protect you, although you are a concubine born to your aunt, but in terms of food and clothing, which one is not better than Miss Mingyue? ”

"However, no matter how strong you are in your mother's house, you are only a girl's family, and you can't stay in the Liguo Mansion for the rest of your life. You will marry someday. This woman, marrying someone is equivalent to reincarnation. If you marry well, you will naturally be respected for your clothes and food, and you will be a noble lady who is high, but if you marry well. Look at the lives of those grandmothers in the house, and you will know. To be troubled by firewood, rice, oil and salt every day, to be filial to your in-laws, to serve your husband, to work all day, not to rest all year round, to eat bran vegetables, that is the life of most women. ”

Hearing this, Qin Mingzhu and Qin Minghuan couldn't help but be frightened. When they think of such a hard life, where can they live? Suddenly, cowardice appeared in his eyes.

What Aunt Shui is best at is observing words and feelings, and she can't see it, so she is silent, and continues: "Originally, as the favored lady of the Guogong Mansion, you naturally wanted to marry into a high-ranking family and be the noble lady. However, you also know that our government has long been out of power, where have you ever interacted with the circle of the powerful? ”

"If you don't get along, how can a noble lady take a fancy to you and come to ask for a marriage? So, you need someone to bring you to this kind of banquet right now. But to participate in such a banquet, the first thing is to know the rules and etiquette, otherwise, how can you get into the eyes of those ladies? The second is that Mingyue is willing to take you there. ”

"Although over the years, our relationship with Mingyue has not been good. But, after all, she is still your sister, and she is still your father's daughter. A word of filial piety can suppress her. Your father sent a message and asked her to take you there, but she dared not to take it? You are her own sisters, and when you go out, it's also about her face, and the upbringing grandmother around her, dare not teach you wholeheartedly? ”

"As long as you hold back your momentary anger, learn the rules and etiquette well, and follow Mingyue to the banquet well, you can marry into a wealthy family in the future and be a noble lady, are you afraid that people will look down on you? Are you afraid that you won't have the prestige to go? ”

"Although our Liguo Mansion is not good now, but you have such beauty, plus, there is a sister who can become a national teacher in the future, plus good rules and etiquette, and one or two skills of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting that can show your hands, I am afraid that there are no high-ranking ladies to ask for marriage?"

"Therefore, for the sake of the future future, you still have to study hard, or your father is right, you must not make trouble at this critical juncture. Especially Mingzhu you, you are eighteen years old. You must know that your mother has already given birth to you at your age. It's too late for you to get married now, where can you afford the delay? ”

In this era, women were basically married at the age of sixteen. Mingzhu is now eighteen years old and has not yet decided on a marriage, can she not be in a hurry? However, there is no way to be in a hurry. As the young lady of Liguo Gong, although she is beautiful, she can't go to the street by herself.

Now that I heard my aunt's words, my mood gradually calmed down. Thinking about it, although I was still a little angry in my heart, I couldn't care about it when I thought that I could marry into a high-ranking family in the future and wear gold and silver.

Seeing that her daughter agreed, Aunt Shui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Here, Aunt Shui's work is going well, but Qin Ping's work in the upper room is very unsmooth. As soon as she heard that her son was going to ask the two lowly concubines to teach her grandmother, Mrs. An was angry.

Mrs. An blushed and said, "What do you mean? The mansion has already reached this field, and a copper plate has to be broken into two petals, and you still have to ask those two cheap girls to raise their grandmothers? Have you forgotten how the mothers of the two of them bullied us in front of your dead ghost back then? ”

Qin Ping felt that it was very difficult to communicate with his mother: "Mother, how could I forget? After my father went, didn't I listen to you and sell all those obnoxious slut aunts? It's just that the two sisters who came out of the concubine don't care and don't ask, and they have been your maids for so many years? ”

"But, I just told my mother? I'm not here to bring those two stinky girls, I'm here to exchange them for benefits. Not to mention anything else, if we can marry two powerful in-laws, first, we can get a large dowry to alleviate the shortage of money in our house, and second, we can also get the help of our in-laws to help our house. What's wrong with that? ”

Mrs. An understood this meaning. It turned out that the son was not trying to bring the concubines, he was going to sell the two concubines.
