Wei Shu

Cheng Yuejiao raised her head when she heard the words, her clear eyes opened wide, and she said with a "huh":

"Is it okay to tell dad about this kind of thing?"

Wei Shu almost looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh.

How could this child be so stupid?It's really a hundred times more stupid than that.

Suppressing the breath in his chest, Wei Shu patiently said: "Why can't you tell your father about this? He is your biological father, your blood relative, why are you hiding it from him?"

If Cheng Wei had known about this, he would never have allowed his own daughter to suffer such grievances, but this silly girl even hid it from her own father, it is hard to comment.

If you say she is stupid, she hides it pretty closely; but if you say she is smart, there are obviously countless ways to escape, but she can't think of any of them, and she is bullied by others.

Cheng Yuejiao stared blankly at Wei Shu, as if she hadn't turned around yet, she also had some doubts on her face, and said hesitantly:

"But, Dad... Dad is a man. Men are going to do big things outside. They shouldn't care about small things at home, and they don't like to care about them. If they really care about it, won't they be laughed at?"

"Where did this nonsense come from?"

Wei Shu flicked her sleeves and reprimanded, and was about to continue, when suddenly a thought crossed her mind, and she blurted out: "Who told you these things?"

With Cheng Yuejiao's mind, she would never have thought of something so far-reaching. She must have heard this from somewhere.

"Big sister told me." Cheng Yuejiao looked confused, obviously not aware that she was being tricked again, and quickly continued:
"My eldest sister often tells me these truths, she said that men are outsiders and women are insiders, this is the law of heaven and ethics.

How hard is it for a man to make great achievements outside?The affairs of the inner house are naturally handled by women.If a woman still bothers them with these trivial matters, it would be unwise for her to be a mother, unvirtuous for her to be a wife, disloyal for her sisters, and unfilial for her children. "

She should have been ordered many times by ear and face, and her words flowed smoothly without any hindrance.

"So you even hid it from your father?" Wei Shu's voice was very light, the expression of patience just now had disappeared from her face, and now she was expressionless.

Cheng Yuejiao seemed to have sensed something, lowered her head timidly, and said "um" in a very low voice.

Looking at the girl who seemed to bow her head to admit her mistake, Wei Shu felt neither angry nor disappointed, but a kind of...

relieved.

Everything is so logical, even though thousands of years have passed, everything in the world has changed, but people's hearts have never changed.

Perhaps, it will never change.

There are two sources of this situation: first, Aunt Fang who sent it to the villa; second, several books that have not been borrowed.

Simple and clear, no need to think too hard at all.

This time, Cheng Yuejiao was not only angered by Mrs. Feng and punished on behalf of her parents, but also Wei Shu, who was punished for her.

Thinking about it further, maybe Wei Shu's role in it is even more important. After all, although the old lady Feng is mean and short-sighted, her means are quite limited. He kept his countenance and made the person being punished take the initiative to cover it up.If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, Wei Shu would almost sigh with emotion.

Cheng Yuan's mother, Miss Cheng, is indeed a "learned" daughter. If the inner house battle is also a kind of knowledge, and there must be an apricot list and autumn chamber or something, this one will definitely win the toad palace and win the first prize in one fell swoop.

"Gu... girl, you... you can wait... wait for maidservant..."

A panting voice accompanied by stumbling footsteps interrupted Wei Shu's thoughts. She raised her eyes and saw the little maid Hongyan running over panting. Seeing Cheng Yuejiao standing there, the little maid immediately Then he let out a long breath, wiped the sweat off his brow quickly, stepped forward and said:
"The girl walked very well...but it was too fast, and taught the servant girl to run for a while."

Her voice was still short of breath, and the green cloth skirt was also stained with gray, probably because she fell on the way here, so she arrived at this time.

This servant girl probably didn't know the truth, otherwise Jiang Shi would have known about it long ago, so Wei Shu also kept silent.

Cheng Yuejiao naturally stopped talking about this matter. She only chatted a few random words with Hongyan. Seeing that Wei Shu had no intention of exposing her on the spot, she ran to the pavilion to look at the bird's nest again.

Wei Shu walked over slowly, watching Cheng Yuejiao yelling and playing there, obviously forgetting all the past, while looking at Kong'er and asking Hongyan a few questions, and finally made things clear There is a rough idea.

It turns out that in the past few days, Feng Lao'an would leave Cheng Yuanniang and Cheng Yuejiao to help pick Buddha beans in the small Buddhist hall after the morning ceremony, and sometimes they would be called over in the afternoon.

Because the stay was not long each time, only half an hour at most, and the young lady in the West Courtyard was also called several times, Hongyan never had any doubts, and when reporting to Ms. Jiang, Ms. Jiang did not think of anything else. .

The old lady used to be very sincere in respect to the Buddha. When Mrs. Jiang was a bride, she also copied a few scriptures for her mother-in-law. Now she just picked a Buddha bean, and there are still many young ladies together. In addition, Cheng Yuejiao deliberately concealed it. As shrewd as Jiang Shi, he was also deceived.

After asking questions, and playing with Cheng Yuejiao in the garden for a while, Wei Shu resigned from the Cheng Mansion.

Cheng Yuejiao belatedly recalled the past, but she was worried, always afraid that Mrs. Jiang would call her over suddenly, and she became even more nervous during the meal.

But until noon, Jiang's business was still as usual, and it seemed that she didn't hear about it from Wei Shu, so Cheng Yuejiao was finally relieved.

Perhaps it was because of worries, she felt that the afternoon passed by particularly slowly, even if she hid in the west compartment and held a book in front of the desk, her mind was full of messy thoughts, how could she get a single word into her head?
After struggling like this, seeing the sun slanting to the west, the sky getting darker, and the twilight coming up little by little, Hongyan entered the room and lit the candlesticks, Cheng Yuejiao suddenly discovered something:

The old lady actually didn't ask her to come over today.

She couldn't help but be surprised, and subconsciously asked Hongyan: "What time is it now?"

"Go back to the girl, it's already the first day of the year." Hongyan put the lamp by the desk, looked out of the window again, and muttered: "It's getting late, the old lady won't ask the girl to go there again."

But it turns out she was thinking about this too.

Cheng Yuejiao had the same thoughts as hers, so she turned to look out the window and murmured: "Yes, it's already dark."

The sky was overcast, the sun was setting, night had fallen, and Youran Residence was unusually quiet for most of the day, with not even a single visitor.

Early the next morning, all the female relatives went to Jinxiu Hall to pay their respects, but got a bad news:
Feng Laoan is sick.

I bowed and apologized, and I was cut off for a few days. There are too many trifles, so tiring......
