"By the way, old lady, didn't you go to see Niangniang in the palace last time? How's the mother? This time, I said that I was unwell, how is my mother? You okay? By the way, I heard that Concubine Zhen is pregnant, and the tail of the Beijing royal family is about to rise to the sky." Wang Xifeng is angry now when he thinks of the Beijing Wang family.

This time, the two upstarts in the palace did not appear, and they explained together that Concubine Xian and Concubine Zhen were unwell. And what everyone in the court and the middle of the court thought was that the two people entered the palace at the same time, and according to it, it was time to spread the good news. Of course, looking at the attitude of King Beijing and the Jia family, everyone has all kinds of speculations.

Regarding the reserve of the Beijing Wang family, the Jia family is obviously a lot more low-key, which is also a signal for everyone.

"It's alright!" Ou Mengmeng took the warm tea handed by Xing, smiled at her, and then replied lightly.

Wang Xifeng was stunned for a moment, looking at Qin Keqing, what do you mean it's okay? Say that the mother is in good health, or is this thing okay?

"Okay, ancestor, it's going to be the New Year, and now the national funeral is decreed, our family is a national funeral and a family funeral this time, but it is just the right time to set up the rules. A few days ago, the uncle also came back and said that the Jia family had many rules before, but there were no terms and conditions, so let the school think about the ancient law well, and our family also got a house rule. After all, it has been passed down for a hundred years, and it should always be known to our children and grandchildren."

"It's very true, there are no rules, there are no squares. Your father-in-law set up a shelf before, and when it comes to your generation, you should set rules. Each generation of patriarchs should do something to contribute to the inheritance of future generations in the clan. How, though? To be innovative, to be eclectic. If you go back to the ancestral rules and tie up your children and grandchildren to death, then you are the sinners of the family." Ou Mengmeng nodded and followed Qin Keqing's words.

It seems that Jia Rong is also a little ambitious, and he doesn't really want to be a puppet patriarch, so he has to set up clan rules now. However, she is supportive of this. After all, the Rong Mansion didn't care about the Ning Mansion. As long as you don't cause trouble, we don't care. Therefore, it is right to manage the clansmen other than Rongfu well. In particular, it really made a scandal about Jia Lian's concubine during the national funeral and family funeral in the book, and the middle was all the thread of the father and son of Ningfu. This time Jia Zhen is dead, if Jia Rong sets the clan rules, he shouldn't dare to mess around.

"Uncle would be glad to know that you said that." Qin Keqing was busy smiling. Think about it, "Uncle said, you are the ancestor of the family, and you know the old rules of the two mansions, so think about it, you still have to check it, like last time, the funeral of the sixth old lady, there are a lot of strange words in the clan." The fourth old lady almost pointed at the uncle's nose and scolded, if it weren't for the eldest master, the second old man would still be there, our uncle really wouldn't have the face to be this patriarch."

Ou Mengmeng closed her eyes, Dai Ru's funeral was done properly, because she got into trouble with the official, but she died in court, so she was between guilt and innocence, so she was treated as innocent. But it is possible to be innocent, but it cannot be said to be innocent. So his cemetery is on the edge of the family cemetery, as for pomp, a civilian who has been removed from showing off his talents, the funeral, can only be said to be a normal funeral for a civilian. No more, no less! The four old ladies are making a fuss, how to say it, they are cold-lipped, and they feel that they treat the six old ladies like this, and they will treat him like this. So it was a fuss. Of course, it's also an old trick, and by the way, let the clan give him some benefits.

This time Jia Rong insisted, even if Jia Yu didn't go, he could solve it, which would make Qin Keqing mention this to himself, which could be regarded as a sign of respect for his elders and a sign of weakness.

Qin Keqing saw that the old lady didn't speak, and she didn't dare to speak, and after a while, Ou Mengmeng finally spoke.

"Again, since you have made the rules from the beginning, let them be according to your ideas. How many days will I live? But one thing, as I just said, is that rules don't become dead rules. Keep up with the times! The rules of a hundred years ago, you don't change, the children dare not change, and in the end, everyone dies holding on to the rules? If so, there are rules, but there are no rules. It is better to let the children and grandchildren regard the law as a family rule, I often say to your eldest master, the family rule can never compare to the law of the country. That's why I said, there is only one family rule, know what your surname is, and then don't be ashamed of your surname. The rest is the Dharma!"

Qin Keqing thought about it, she understood what the old lady meant, they were learning, the law was what the old lady insisted on learning. Obviously, it was useless for the exam, but the old lady insisted that she had to learn, and asked Jia Ying to teach it herself, and even Jia Ying was so scared that she restudied the law again. It's been almost seven years, Jia Jiaxue

In addition to being able to read and manage affairs, there is also a special one, and they can memorize the law more than the other.

"Old lady, what Brother Rong's daughter-in-law means is that it's not a family rule, right? There are also some like the weekly ceremony, our family also has a school, such as sacrifices, such as how to celebrate birthdays, how to hold funerals, and save the matter of being like the sixth old lady......

"Since there is a weekly gift, why do you want to get a fake gift from the Jia family yourself? It's just layering up, tying yourself to death, pretending to be a cultural person." Ou Mengmeng smiled and thought about it, "We put the article of the second master at the door of the school, and we are going to engrave the names of the students behind it, why don't we make a school rule?" Because we are more about the school motto, not the school rules.

In fact, any rules are constantly refreshed after being challenged. If you make it, let people violate it, so *** is undecided, right and wrong, don't you count it in your own hearts? What can be done and what can't be done is still up to me? As for the rules for funerals and weddings, is this a matter of rules? It's about money! What do you say?

I'm dead, and the fourth old lady is dead, so can the funeral be a specification? Don't say that I have a grade, even if I don't have a grade, I am richer than the fourth old lady's family, you say, what are you determined by? If it is set high or low, it will be a problem for children and grandchildren. So it's all about doing what you can!

In the clan, it is enough to grasp a general direction, so that people know that the clan is not a decoration. But don't make it so strict that it makes people think that we can eat the flesh and blood of our people."

Let's look at Qin Keqing, she is also a clan woman, the old lady said this, even if she is old and virtuous, it seems that there is something wrong with this.

"Yes, the great-granddaughter-in-law will talk to the uncle." Qin Keqing didn't show displeasure, listened very carefully, and replied seriously.

Ou Mengmeng nodded and smiled: "Of course, this is my own meaning, I have confidence in myself and our children. You're right to set the rules. Our time will eventually pass. How to gather a family is indeed a great subject, and it is worth studying for the rest of your life, so don't worry about it for now."
