Improper cannon fodder for fast wear

Chapter 1112 Nouveau riche house 15
After listening to An Ran's words, Su Erniu couldn't help but nodded, and said: "That's the reason, it's all caused by the money, the cousins ​​who used to be good, but because of the money, they are now like this."

An Ran smiled and nodded, but she didn't think so in her heart.

In fact, in the final analysis, Cao Chunhua and the others are not very good characters. If a person with good character, it is impossible to see other people's family has money, and they will not be happy if they don't buy beautiful clothes and jewelry for themselves, even if this person is their aunt. (Su Sanhua is their aunt) It is impossible to be unhappy, after all, the other party is only their aunt, not their mother and father. If someone is willing to buy it, it is affection, and if they don't, it is duty. If others give it, they should be grateful and not Can't complain either.

What's more, there is no way for Concubine Su not to buy it for them. At present, the government and the public are staring at Concubine Su, which makes her feel embarrassed to ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to return clothes and accessories to several nieces and aunts.

Of course, the main reason is that Eunuch Zhang didn’t know how many people Cao Chunhua was coming, so he didn’t have time to tell Concubine Su Gui. Now, Concubine Su Gui has already used her own money to buy them, but buying a lot of clothes will cost a little It’s just time—just like Gao bought clothes for Cao Chunhua and the others and then for her granddaughters, Concubine Su Gui wanted to buy clothes for her aunts and nieces, so it’s impossible not to buy clothes for her own family. Come on, because there are a lot of clothes and jewelry, so they haven't been made yet, and they haven't been sent to the Su family. It's not that Concubine Su is reluctant to part with the little money. Knowing that the daughters of her sisters are coming, she doesn't even want to give a set of clothes and jewelry.

After eating at noon, Mrs. Gao called Steward Sun again and asked him about the situation in Beijing.

About the situation of her daughter Su Guifei, on the way to Beijing, she had already asked Eunuch Zhang a little bit, and knew that her daughter is quite favored at present, it can be said that she is the most favored in the Sixth Palace, and that is true, if she is not favored, it is impossible to give it to a concubine Her natal family was made an earl, and there was a prince who was ten years old. The other eunuchs did not say much because they were not good at talking about the master. Her daughter knows best about it, it would be unnecessary to ask outsiders.

But for matters in Beijing, she can ask Butler Sun. After all, her daughter lives in a deep palace, so she probably doesn’t know as much as Steward Sun, who has been in the capital all year round. It's better to ask Butler Sun than to ask her daughter.

Steward Sun had already waited for Gao to ask, because the eunuch Li who sent him at that time—Emperor Kang He and Concubine Su Gui asked the inner eunuch to help the Su family find some servants. Eunuch Li was the confidant of Emperor Kang He. It was he who did it - I mentioned it to him, and asked him to help the Su family get acquainted with the situation quickly, so when she heard her questioning, he hurriedly said: "Our family in the middle of the capital is divided into several parts, like the grandfather, the old man The wives’ family is called the honored family, which is one piece; the royal family is the clan, and they are one piece; and the biggest piece is the one who is an official. The clan cannot be an official in the court, and there are plenty of honorable people. For a simple title like the Grand Master's Mansion, there are also officials in the court. Most of the real power is in the hands of officials, and some nobles who have official positions in the court. The clan does not hold power, but their status is noble. Not to be underestimated either.”

"Right now, the nobles in Beijing are the empress dowager's natal family Cheng'en Gongfu; there is nothing to talk about in the clan; officials are more proud, such as the chief assistant Shen's family, the official minister's mansion Gu's family, and the children of the family. The Wang family and others, who belonged to His Majesty's most beloved Princess Changle, and some long-standing big families, are all famous and powerful in Beijing."

Mrs. Gao felt her scalp tingle when she heard Steward Sun say a few people. She thought her family was quite remarkable, but when she heard it, the Empress Dowager’s natal family, the chief assistant Shen’s family, and the official minister’s Gu family married the emperor’s most beloved family. The princess's royal family, except for the queen mother's family, which is said to be the same as her own family, is a new one. The latter few families are all big families, which are not comparable to her own family.

However, even if the Empress Dowager's natal family is new, it is better than her own family. After all, Concubine Su relies on the emperor's favor, and their family only got the title. As for the Empress Dowager, even if she doesn't mention the relationship with the emperor's mother and son, she alone is The empress dowager is the woman with the highest status in the palace. Her natal family is much more confident than my own, the concubine's natal family. After all, they are mothers and children, unlike those who were not mothers and children in history. Being used to the queen mother caused the queen mother's natal family to have no status, but this dynasty is a mother and son, and the relationship is not bad, so the Cheng'en government is not much more confident than my own family. After all, the mother and son, the emperor will definitely be good to the outside family On the contrary, my family obtained the title by virtue of the concubine's grace. This favor is not forever. Maybe one day I will fall out of favor, and my family will be beaten back to its original shape.

Thinking of this, Gao couldn't help but put away the arrogance that had arisen since his family became an earl, and he didn't dare to be frightened anymore.

And the most important thing is that there are people in their family who are officials in the court, and they all hold real power. Unlike their family, although they have a title, they have no real power. Listen to Steward Sun, this kind of noble who has no real power and only has a title , there are quite a lot of people in Beijing, and some of them are not much better than ordinary people if they are down. Fortunately, my own family has a favored Concubine Su, otherwise it is not so good.

Hearing this, Gao couldn't help but said to Su Laoshuan: "Old man, I think our children also have to study. There is no one in the court, and they can't stand up."

Su Laoshuan said: "Books must be read. In the past, my family was poor and there was nothing I could do. Now that I have money, there is no reason why I should not study to test my achievements. Da Niu and the others, no matter how old they are, they all read it, even if they are old. , but also read some books and know a few words, so as not to be laughed at."

Su Erniu and the girls are better. Su Dashuan didn't say to let them read and write, and they can still watch the fun, but when Su Daniu and others heard that they were going to study, they made a sad face. The children are better. I don’t understand how hard it is to read. People like Su Daniu who are 20 years old and know that reading is not easy, can’t help begging for mercy: “Grandpa, let me forget it? I’m already 20 years old, what books should I read?”

Su Laoshuan immediately turned angry, and said: "You have to read it even more. I heard what Eunuch Zhang said at that time. The titles in the court are all inherited by the eldest son. From now on, my title will be your father's." Inheritance, after your father, you will inherit. You say, after a few generations of other people's family, they will all be scholarly. Our family has reached the third generation, and you still can't read. Don't laugh at our family for shame when you go out. Not only you, but also your father, it’s fine if your two uncles don’t inherit the title, if they want to study, I won’t force them if they don’t want to.”
