urge Zhao to marry

Chapter 113 Teaching
Yan Yuying was surprised when she saw Wen Huiyi's eyes were red and swollen: "Sister Yi, what's wrong with you? Who dares to bully you?"

Although they are the same age, Yan Yuying is two months older than Wen Huiyi.

"Sister Ying, I, I..." Wen Huiyi dropped a few eyeballs again, and after wiping them off with a veil, she choked up and said, "My engagement with Mr. Qin is gone. Yesterday Mr. Qin rescued me. He killed his cousin who fell into the water, and in order to give the Meng family an explanation, they sent the official matchmaker to the Meng residence to discuss their marriage."

When the two families broke up their engagement, they only returned the tokens and dowry of the original engagement in private, but there was no disturbance in the city.

Therefore, when Yan Yuying heard her words, she thought that it was because Qin Mu saved the man who fell into the water yesterday that the Meng family would rely on her. She was forced to divorce Wen Huiyi and marry the daughter of his uncle's family.

Yan Yuying slammed the glass angrily: "Why is he so stupid? This is obviously a trick set by the Meng family. Why didn't you remind him, sister Yi?"

Wen Huiyi looked helpless: "Mother's uncle is older, it's his uncle's house, and his eldest uncle just married a step-wife this year, and even the daughter who brought the step-widow into the door also recognized him, so Miss Meng also wanted to marry her." Fifteen or sixteen years old, since he saved his cousin who fell into the water, how could he not marry?"

"What? It's the daughter brought in by the stepmother?"

Seeing her nodding, Yan Yuying became even angrier: "Like a mother, there must be a daughter. If there is no good mother and daughter, they must be of low status and want to climb high, so they deliberately set up a situation to marry Mr. Qin."

Wen Huiyi gracefully wiped away the teardrops on her face, and sighed with disappointment: "What's the use of saying this? Anyway, I have already broken off the engagement with him, and my parents are also very angry, and they are ready to give me another Then pick the right one.”

When Yan Yuying heard this, her eyes flashed: "You, you just forget it?"

Wen Huiyi smiled wryly: "Now that things have come to an end, I don't want to force it. The marriage is retired, so naturally I don't want to have anything to do with him anymore."

When she said this, she felt a little uncomfortable when she thought that if she married Prince Qing, she would be regarded as a close relative with the Xuanping Hou Mansion, and she would still see Qin Mu.

Yan Yuying seemed to be curious, and asked her a lot about Qin Mu's family.

Wen Huiyi naturally knew everything and said everything.

She didn't care whether Yan Yuying wanted to rely on Qin Mu like Mu Zhaozhao, or wanted to get rid of Mu Zhaozhao, anyway, she knew that Yan Yuying was not a cheap lamp.

In vain, she cried on purpose in the carriage, and now she just waited and watched the good show.

The only regret is that Yan Yuying can't go out yet, and she doesn't know when she will get the chance.

At this moment, Mu Zhaozhao didn't know that he would be targeted by strangers.

After Mrs. Meng made sure that she didn't get sick because of falling into the water, she called her over the day after the official media left: "Zhao Zhao, you and A Mu are already engaged, so hurry up and learn how to be a housekeeper. Let your grandfather find you a nanny who goes out of the palace to teach you the rules."

Mu Zhaozhao originally wanted to go to the shop to have a look, and planned to open it on another day, but now he was a little uneasy when he heard what his grandmother said: "Grandma, I will learn from you, okay? Don't you need to hire any nanny?"

I also know that there are many rules in the palace, and the nanny who can get out of the palace now must be the one who engraved the rules in her bones.

If this is invited, can I still sleep in?Can you still read the picture book as you like?Can you still go out and hang around leisurely?
Anyway, Mu Zhaozhao became more and more frightened as he thought about it. He looked at Mrs. Meng expectantly and flattered her, hoping that she would change her mind: "Grandmother, I really think that your behavior and communication are very good. If your granddaughter can learn It's enough to be half of you."

Mrs. Meng was happy when she heard this, but she still smiled firmly: "In the land of the capital, if a brick is dropped on five people, there will be one or two low-level officials. There are not many noble people coming and going, and there are too few things to know."

"However, the current Master Hou in the Xuanping Hou Mansion is already the fourth generation. Even if Master Hou's official career is not going well, he is still a third grade."

"In the official family in the capital, the girls have to follow the mothers who go out of the palace from the age of three or five, or learn the rules from the mothers around the elders."

"You have to know who the ancestors of those aristocratic families in Beijing are, and what in-laws they have. You also have to know which family is not against the Xuanping Hou Mansion, and you have to know the details of the other party, and you must also remember the ladies in the harem. mother's family."

"My natal family is a military commander, and I am not a long-term wife. I grew up with my parents outside. No matter in terms of education or rules, I am not as good as the daughters of the rich and powerful families in the capital. Therefore, I can only It’s because when you’re about to get married, you’re cramming, and you’ve invited a nanny to teach you for two years.”

"If you marry into a well-matched family, even if you don't hire a nanny to teach you, you can almost handle it by following me and your mother to learn how to be a housekeeper."

"But if you want to have a good life in Xuanpinghou Mansion, then you must learn the rules and make plans."

Mrs. Meng also saw that she was a little lazy, and said earnestly: "Even if the servant is capable, you can't completely ignore it. The human heart is the most unbearable test. If you don't understand the account book, you will be fooled by the servant."

"During festivals and festivals, you have to know the guests' seats, dishes, tea and wine when you entertain guests in the residence of the Xuanping Palace."

"Especially knowing who is not dealing with whom, and separating people when arranging a banquet..."

Mu Zhaozhao was overwhelmed by what she heard, especially what her grandmother said that she had to know and learn. It sounded scarier to her than going to school.

She looked hopeless: "Grandma, I don't think I'm good enough for my cousin. I think I may have a destiny with Buddha."

Mother, she really regrets it, why did she ask Qin Mu to save herself at the beginning?

If she could go back to two days ago, she would have swum ashore swiftly the moment she fell into the water, and she would definitely not care about being ridiculed that way.

The big deal is low marriage.

It's all right now, just because of the throbbing at that moment, I have to marry Qin Mu. There are grandmas and mother-in-laws who don't like me in Xuanpinghou's mansion, and there are so many things to learn.

"You child, what nonsense are you talking about?" Mrs. Meng handed her some past invitations: "Here are the invitations from the past few years. I deliberately picked out some of them. You can take them back and have a look. I will give you some invitations in the past." Before Mammy comes, follow me and learn how to be a housekeeper, right?"

After she finished speaking, she asked again: "Do you know why I let you see these?"

Mu Zhaozhao pondered for a while before opening his mouth: "Grandmother wants me to know who are the people who associate with the Meng family."

Thinking about it again, she deliberately picked out these invitations for herself, that is, these are likely to be officials and eunuchs with contacts.

"It's very likely that I will meet these people during the banquet in the future, so let me know which family they belong to first?"

"Yes, I will give you five days to remember the relationship between these people's families, and then I will test you." Mrs. Meng finally felt a little relieved. This child was only uncertain in the past, and his brain is still smart. I hope to teach him carefully for two years. He didn't ask her to be in charge of the Xuanpinghou's residence, but only hoped that she could take care of their own courtyard and go out to socialize without making mistakes.

Only in this way can Mu Zhaozhao give birth to children and raise them well.

Otherwise, even if she enters the door and becomes pregnant, who knows if she can give birth to a child properly?
Even if Mrs. Meng didn't like her at first, she didn't want her grandson to marry her.

But now that their marriage is settled, she is also willing to teach her cheap granddaughter more, and she does not want her to die innocently in the conspiracy of the inner house woman.

Mu Zhaozhao also knew that Mrs. Meng was doing it for his own good, so he could only go back and ponder these invitations, and he could only let the maids around him go to the shop to have a look.

Time is like running water, and it has entered October in a blink of an eye.

Mu Zhaozhao's spice shop named "Yizhen Huangliang" finally opened at the end of September, because Wu Dagui had already made a name for himself in many places of fireworks. Really good.

Mu Zhaozhao also asked Wu Dagui's father and daughter to be shopkeepers, Wu Dagui led two waiters to receive the men's guests, and Wu Xinxin brought two bought maids to receive the female guests.

Mu Zhaozhao can't go out easily now, so on the second day of November, after finishing the housework with the old lady, she smiled sweetly at Mrs. Meng: "Grandma, I haven't gone out for almost two months. , the weather is fine today, I want to go around the street, can I?"

The little girl's voice was sweet, and her clear eyes were full of longing. Mrs. Meng unconsciously showed a bit of kindness, and she didn't want to restrain her too tightly, so she nodded: "Okay, let's go for a walk That's fine too."

"Thank you grandma, granddaughter is leaving." Mu Zhaozhao was overjoyed, turned around and flew away like a butterfly: "I will go to Qiweizhai to buy some snacks to honor grandma."

Mrs. Meng smiled and shook her head when she heard the words: "This child."

Mother He on the side also smiled: "Missy is smart. It has only been more than a month, and she can already remember the officials and officials in the capital, can see the problems in the account book, and can already arrange the purchase of the kitchen. She has learned a lot. almost."

Mrs. Meng also nodded with a smile: "This child was a little lazy in the past, but now she has to work hard to realize her intelligence."

Then he frowned again: "Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a suitable nanny yet."

There are not many concubines in the palace now, so that there are not many maids and nuns in need. Even if there are suitable nuns who want to leave the palace, the concubines will prepare for their natal family first.

Moreover, the treatment in the inner courtyard of the palace is also very good. Whether it is old or sick, the masters will arrange people to take care of them, and they can also go to the Anle Hall to take care of their lives, so that the nuns are willing to spend their entire lives in the inner garden of the deep palace. .

Therefore, Master Meng has asked someone to pay attention, but there has been no suitable candidate.

But Mrs. Meng felt that if she taught Zhaozhao for a few more months, she might not have anything to teach.

Some things can only be understood by her own experience and experience.

Mrs. Meng got up: "Wait tomorrow, let her take stock of the warehouse again."

"Yes." Mama He agreed.

But he knew in his heart that for the next ten days and a half months, the young lady might not have time to go out, so she would spend it in the warehouse.
