Chapter 146: The Male Protagonist's Best Mother (34)

"Your cousin's name is Zhao Yuanyi, so I'll follow Yuanyi's name and give you the name 'Jingyi'."

The new little niece came, and Gu Tingcheng still followed her rules and named the little girl first.

"Jingyi? Zhao Jingyi? ”

The little girl's face was slightly dark, and there was rural red on her face.

She chewed softly, and little stars began to twinkle in her eyes, "Nice! Thank you, aunt! ”

That's great!

She has a name, too.

It's not a stinky girl, obviously she doesn't stink, but she was still casually given such a cheap name by her mother.

Like Zhao Yuanyi, she didn't understand what Jingyi meant.

But, Zhao Jingyi, it sounds good, like a young lady from a rich family.

Zhao Jingyi is very happy, and she has a natural admiration for the weak and beautiful third aunt.

She works very hard.

Boiling water, cooking, little people, busy in the yard.

Zhao Jingyi didn't feel bitter at all.

Bitter what?

That's what she does at home.

And after doing the work, I have to endure the beating and scolding of my grandmother and my mother.

When eating, you can't eat enough.

It's rare to eat meat at home, and she can only swallow saliva while watching.

It's good that the third aunt is here, I can eat enough at every meal, and I can eat eggs every other day.

That's it, my aunt was still a little embarrassed: "Jingyi, our family is still guarding filial piety, and we can't get fishy meat." ”

"When we are filial, we will sell meat and eat every three or five days!"

Zhao Jingyi: ......

The saliva secretion was so strong that Zhao Jingyi couldn't speak.

The big cake painted by Gu Tingcheng made Zhao Jingyi more diligent and capable.

If it weren't for Gu Tingcheng still having to "take care" of Ji Sanniang and spend a lot of money to ask her to wash her clothes, little Zhao Jingyi would want to even have all the clothes at home!

Zhao Jingyi herself is happy and happy, and she works hard, but in the eyes of others, she is pitiful!

"Gu Niangzi is really, Jingyi is only seven years old, how can she be allowed to do so much work?"

Zheng Wanjun, who is also seven years old, once followed her mother to Zhao's house as a guest, and was very sympathetic when she saw Zhao Jingyi, who was busy coming in and out.

Seven years old!

None of them are child labor, they are child abuse.

In the future generations, at such an age, to be able to dress, eat, and go to school independently, parents and elders must praise "sensible".

And in this evil overhead ancient times, he had to do housework without touching the ground.

As for the Gu family, who is almost thirty years old, is still an elder, he can actually watch it and enjoy it without any psychological burden!

She, she's too much!

This time, Wan Niangzi did not echo her daughter.

She looked into Zheng Wanjun's eyes and said softly, "Not to mention in the countryside, even in the city, a seven-year-old girl should also learn to do housework."

Their own daughters will be pampered, firstly, because their family has this condition, and secondly, they are spoiled by their husband and wife.

In fact, even if she doesn't do some housework, Wan Niangzi is also planning, it's time to set up some courses for her daughter.

Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, these are Mr. Zheng's specialties.

As early as when his daughter was three or four years old, Mr. Zheng had already begun to enlighten.

It's just that her daughter doesn't seem to be very good at these skills, she just learns them, but she can't specialize in them.

It doesn't matter, the Zheng family is an official eunuch, and if you know a little about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it is enough to be able to deal with the scene, and you don't have to force it.

But the female red cooking housekeeper still has to learn it systematically.

They can't be in the capital, but in a small remote county, and all kinds of resources are not as good as the capital.

If the parents are no longer careful, the daughter will really be delayed.

Wan Niangzi was thoughtful, managed the whole family, and began to prepare early.

Last month, she wrote to the capital to ask for help from relatives and friends in the capital.

Kyochu will not refuse.

Presumably, in a few days, there will be a nurturing grandmother and a female gentleman coming.

Originally, Wan Niangzi wanted to tell her daughter, but seeing how young her daughter was, she simply let her relax for a few more days.

When the nurturing grandmother and female gentleman arrive, then strictly discipline the daughter.

Zheng Wanjun didn't know that her carefree days were coming to an end, and she would soon enter the state of suffering of the "Ancient Noble Girl Cultivation Course".

On the first day of the new year, Zheng Wanjun successfully persuaded her mother to take her out of the city.

In ancient times, one of the very few serious excuses for women to go out was to burn incense and worship the Buddha.

Zheng Wanjun originally did not believe in Buddhism, but with the experience of crossing over, she had to be in awe of ghosts and gods.

On the first day of the new year, you can go to the Qingfeng Temple outside the city, not only to worship God, seek peace of mind, but also go out to climb the mountain for an outing.

It's a good way to kill two birds with one stone.

"I heard that there is a ginkgo tree in Qingfeng Temple, which has lived for hundreds of years?"

Sitting in the carriage, Zheng Wanjun snuggled up to Wan Niangzi affectionately and asked curiously.

"That's right! But now the season is not right, in autumn, all the ginkgo biloba leaves turn yellow, looking at it from afar, it is very spectacular! ”

Wan Niangzi has seen that extremely beautiful scene, and when she depicts it, her eyes are shining.

"Really? Then when autumn comes, let's go to Qingfeng Temple. ”

Zheng Wanjun was excited.

It is said that in later generations, information is developed, and through short videos, she has seen countless beautiful scenery.

However, it is ancient times.

Her scope of activity is only the backstreets of the academy.

A little farther away, she couldn't even set foot in, let alone go out to enjoy the view.

Alas, this bitter antiquity!

And she's going to have to endure it for years.

Wait, not necessarily!

If she shows enough ability to earn a certain status in the family, she can gain the right to speak.

The economic base determines the superstructure.

The Zheng family is not poor, but it is not a big family.

The status of the ancient businessman was not high, and his father was a scholar, Zheng Wanjun rashly did business, and Wan Niangzi was the first to agree.

Making glass, purifying alcohol, it seems possible.

Alcohol, in particular, was a lifesaver in ancient times.

And movable type printing!

Ji Xiaosi of the Ji family worked as a book-printing apprentice in the bookstore, and when Wan Niangzi talked to Zheng Wanjun about the gossip of the Ji family, she mentioned some things about book printing.

Only then did Zheng Wanjun know that this era was still engraving printing, rather than more advanced and convenient movable type printing.

If she can get the movable type printing out, it will not only benefit the country and the people, but also give her father a wave of fame in Shilin.

Leaning on her mother's arms, the carriage under her swayed, but Zheng Wanjun's thinking became more and more divergent.

Suddenly, the carriage came to a halt!

Wan Niangzi and Zheng Wanjun, who were sitting in the carriage, both rushed forward violently under the action of inertia.

Wan Niangzi reacted quickly, hurriedly supported the carriage with one hand, and hugged her daughter tightly with the other, and the mother and daughter stabilized their figures.

"What's wrong?"

Wan Niangzi's tone was a little stiff.

This carriage was not hired, but from their Zheng family.

The groom who drove the car was also the son of the Zheng family.

is a slave of his own family, but he is so undetriious, and Wan Niangzi is instinctively displeased.

"Lady, the carriage in front of you seems to have hit someone, and it became noisy, surrounded by many people, and the road was blocked!"

The coachman pulled the reins tightly and eagerly explained to Wan Niangzi.

"Bumped into someone?"

Wan Niangzi frowned slightly, could it be that the powerful people of that family were too domineering, riding horses in the city, and hurting innocent people?

"That's right! Do you want to go ahead and have a look? ”

The coachman asked cautiously.

It's not about joining in the fun, it's about seeing if the troubles ahead can be resolved.

If you keep making trouble, the road will be blocked all the time.

And the lady and the lady still have to go out, they are not good to always wait.

If it really doesn't work, you have to consider a different route.

"No, you just have to take care of the carriage. Mother Sun, go down and take a look! ”

Wan Niangzi shouted outside the car.

"Yes!"

The mother-in-law who was following the car outside heard the order and hurriedly responded.

She is not the son of the Zheng family, but Wan Niangzi's companion.

Her husband and son are outside, helping Wan Niangzi take care of the dowry.

Her daughter is Zheng Wanjun's little maid.

The family's deeds are all pinched in the hands of Wan Niangzi, and Mother Sun is the most loyal.

got the master's order, Sun's mother trotted to the front, squeezed into the crowd hard, and saw the scene of the "car accident" clearly.

and the parties involved in the car accident.

Hey?

Mother Sun's eyes widened, and her face was even more excited.

After standing for a while, listening to the passers-by around her babbling about the whole process of the car accident, Sun's mother had some understanding.

Squeezing out of the crowd, Sun's mother trotted back to the carriage again.

"Lady, it was a carriage that hit an old beggar passing by."

"The person in the carriage is the Gu lady of the Zhao family!"

When Wan Niangzi heard the previous sentence, her face was a little unsightly-there are really fanatics who hit and injured the people on horseback.

After listening to the words, Wan Niangzi's brows furrowed more and more tightly.

Gu's?

She is the most sick and weak, unassertive, and not a rebellious person at all.

Could it be that someone is blackmailing?

In recent years, Wan Niangzi has accompanied her husband and lived a low-key life in the market.

Therefore, she is still familiar with the three indiscriminate tricks of scoundrels and splashes in the market.

Not to mention, there is a litter of scoundrels in the backstreets of their academy!

As for the Gu family, he is notoriously good at coaxing.

If it weren't for her mother-in-law and in-law's family taking turns to visit the county, the Ji family would have found Gu's mother and son a long time ago.

Even so, with Gu's moving in, some "strange news" about her also circulated among the neighborhood.

What was cheated out of hundreds of taels of silver by his in-laws, but he didn't ask for it, but continued to be a family with his in-laws.

What kind of gullible relatives, almost deceived all the family. If it weren't for the wisdom of the county lord, Gu's mother and son would have drunk the northwest wind.

What a markup to buy the swindler's ancestral treasure knife, gave silver, but did not want a knife!

and her kind help to Ji Saburo's family, which gave the neighbors the most intuitive and profound understanding of Gu's absurdity.

"Could it be that the reputation of the Gu family has already spread to the market?"

When you go out, you will be touched by the old beggar?

Wan Niangzi muttered in her heart.

She really doesn't look down on Gu's weakness and uselessness, but in the end, she is a neighbor, and her husband still values Zhao Qingyun very much.

Now that you've encountered it, you can't ignore it!

Wan Niangzi, who was accustomed to taking care of others, sighed helplessly and said to her daughter, "You wait in the car, I'll go down and take a look!" ”

If it is really a scoundrel who is blackmailing, he will be sent directly to the official.

Although the magistrate of the county seat is not a good official, he is not too stupid!

And Wan Niangzi is even more confident in her family background, and she is not afraid of the so-called county lord......

PS: It's almost the end of the month, is there a new monthly pass, dear, you know, hehe!
