Do you know: I am Yuan Wenshao

Chapter 105 Hua Lan persuades her mother (please subscribe)

In the main hall of Grandma Kong's courtyard, Rulan and Minglan came to their seats and sat down.

Ru Lan curled her lips and said, "It's really unlucky that I have to study with her. When I see her face, I feel sick."

"Fifth sister, I heard from my grandmother that Grandma Kong has very strict rules. Don't cause trouble. If you are punished, you will suffer the consequences." Minglan reminded.

"Didn't Grandma Kong just tell dad that you don't have to be so rigid when learning the rules?" Ru Lan said with some confusion.

Grandma Kong’s unsmiling look made her look very serious and scary.

Rulan was a little nervous at first, but she felt much more relaxed after hearing what Mother Kong said in Shou'an Hall just now.

Now that I heard what Minglan said, I became nervous again.

"My fifth sister, Grandma Kong teaches the maids in the palace. How strict are the rules in the palace? The punishment for maids who make mistakes is very severe, and even the aunt who teaches will be punished. Grandma Kong What you said to dad was just a polite word, do you really take it seriously?"

Minglan was actually trying to scare her, but there was nothing she could do about it. Every time Ru Lan and Mo Lan got together, something would always happen.

If she is caught in it, she will also be implicated.

"What is serious and not serious?"

At this moment, Hua Lan walked in holding Sister Wen.

"Fifth Aunt, Sixth Aunt, I'm here to play with you."

Sister Wen broke away from her mother's hand and ran over.

"Sister Wen, have you forgotten what I told you? You're not here to play, you're here to learn the rules." Hua Lan scolded.

"understood."

Sister Wen was tired of being in Minglan's arms and stuck out her tongue at Hualan.

"Hey, Sister Wen, I am your biological aunt. Why do you feel that you are closer to Sixth Sister than you are to me?" Ru Lan felt a bit offended.

"Ru Lan!" Hua Lan glared at her and said, "What are you talking about?"

Rulan also knew that she had said the wrong thing and apologized to Minglan: "Sixth sister, I didn't mean that."

"I know." Minglan knew Ru Lan's temper and didn't care. She pinched Sister Wen's face and said with a smile, "Maybe it's because I have a kind face, so Sister Wen kissed me."

"Okay, Sheng Xiaoliu, are you talking about me in a roundabout way?" Ru Lan pretended to be angry.

"Okay, stop making trouble, Grandma Kong will come later and she will see something bad." Hua Lan said.

Hearing this, Rulan thought of what Minglan said just now and asked: "Sister, Sixth Sister said that the rules in the palace are very strict, and Aunt Kong will also be very strict when she teaches the rules. Is it true?"

Hua Lan was about to speak when she saw Minglan blinking at her, and she quickly reacted and said, "Minglan is right, the rules in the palace are indeed very strict. When the palace maids walk, they must not make the slightest sound. Once they make a mistake, they will The lighter ones will be slapped with a stick, and the serious ones will be sent to the Punishment Department for punishment. If you make a mistake, you will not be punished, but the stick will definitely be indispensable."

Hua Lan is the wife of Gaoming. She has been to the palace several times and knows a little about the conditions of the palace maids. She is not exaggerating.

However, what Aunt Kong teaches is a young lady from an official family, so the requirements are naturally different from those of teaching palace maids.

She saw that Minglan wanted to scare Rulan, so she just followed Minglan's advice.

Hualan still knows her sister's character very well. Like her mother, she has no scheming.

In addition, she was favored at home and had a somewhat arrogant temper. She was also worried that something would happen to Ru Lan.

And she also wanted to scare Sister Wen into being more honest.

Ru Lan was frightened, and her face turned pale after hearing this.

But Sister Wen didn't look scared at all.

It wasn't that she wasn't afraid, but that she had never been beaten since she could remember.

At most, when Hua Lan was angry, he slapped her on the butt a few times. It wasn't painful or itchy, and she had long forgotten it.

Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, nothing more.

"Big sister is here too."

At this moment, Mo Lan walked in with a maid and bowed: "I've met my eldest sister."

"Well, I'll send Sister Wen over." Hua Lan nodded.

She didn't like Mo Lan, but she wasn't as kind as Rulan Minglan.

"The three of you learn the rules together from Aunt Kong. Just learn the rules and don't quarrel over trivial matters. Sister Wen is here too. As elders, you should not only be a role model, but also don't lose the Sheng family's face." Hua Lan warned.

"What the eldest sister said is that even if the fifth sister is acting nonsense, I, as the elder sister, will let her go and won't be the same as her." Mo Lan said with a smile.

"Who wants you to give in?" Ru Lan said angrily when she heard this: "You are not on the same level as me, and I don't want to be on the same level as you."

"shut up."

Hua Lan stopped Ru Lan, looked at Mo Lan and said, "Don't play these little tricks. We are sisters, and there are some things I don't want to say that are too unpleasant. I hope you will take care of yourself."

Live in the air, nourish the transplanted body.

Hualan has been the eldest lady of the Earl's Mansion for several years, and now she has a serious face and looks quite imposing.

Mo Lan was shocked, but did not make any further provocation.

There was a sound of footsteps outside, and Grandma Kong came in with two maids.

"I've met Mrs. Yuan." Grandma Kong saluted when she saw Hua Lan.

She was also a female official in the palace, and her rank was no lower than that of Sheng Hong. Therefore, she could not be polite when meeting Sheng Hong and Mrs. Wang, but not when meeting Hua Lan.

Hualan was not only a countess, but also had a royal title. Seriously, Sheng Hong had to bow when he saw her.

"Mother Kong is so polite." Hua Lan quickly returned the courtesy and said, "My little girl is naughty, so I have to worry about Grandma Kong."

"You're welcome, Madam. I think Miss is very smart and sensible." Aunt Kong said with a smile.

"Thank you for the compliment, Aunt Kong. I won't interrupt you and will take my leave first." Hua Lan said with a smile.

"Then I won't give it away." Grandma Kong said with a smile.

"Mother Kong, please stay." Hua Lan turned around and told her daughter a few words before walking out.

After Hua Lan left, Grandma Kong asked the girls to sit down and started class.

"It is said that the moral character of a daughter's family is the most important, and etiquette is just a false courtesy, but decent people like to talk about this false courtesy. If you do well, no one may praise you, but if you do wrong, you will inevitably be laughed at secretly. Sisters are all smart people, so they should You know what’s important.”

Grandma Kong talked about the importance of learning etiquette and rules as soon as she came up, and then started to explain the etiquette for different people and situations.

When he said it, he asked the maid to show it, and then asked several people to follow it.

She didn't teach anything too strict on the first day, but San Lan and Sister Wen learned the lesson well.

On the other side, after Hualan left Grandma Kong's courtyard, she first went to Shou'an Hall to greet the old lady, chatted with her for a while, and then left to go to Wei Ruixuan.

Mrs. Wang originally thought that Sheng Hong had told Aunt Kong that she would not agree, but unexpectedly she agreed as soon as she said it.

After coming back, I was sulking in the house. When I saw my daughter coming, I pulled her to sit down and told her my grievances.

After hearing this, Hua Lan said helplessly: "Mother, if you and Miss Lin don't deal with each other, there is no need to target Mo Lan and Chang Feng." Mrs. Wang said displeased: "What are you talking about? What if that girl Mo Lan After learning the rules from grandma, and marrying high, that bitch Lin Qige will still have her tail raised to the sky?"

Hua Lan smiled bitterly and said: "Mom, my grandmother has always said that after her daughter's family gets married, it will be a different story. If Mo Lan marries well, she will never be able to get around you, my aunt, no matter what, so why should you?"

Children born from a concubine can only call their biological mother "Mother", but they must call their legitimate mother "Mother".

This is not just a title, but being filial to one's parents also refers to one's biological mother, not one's biological mother.

Like Chang Feng and Mo Lan, it's OK not to be filial to Lin Xiaoniang, but they can't be unfilial to Wang.

In Hualan's view, there is absolutely no need for Mrs. Wang to be like this.

In the future, Changbai will definitely inherit the Sheng family. If Mo Lan marries well, it will be beneficial to the Sheng family, which will also be beneficial to Changbai.

"Humph." Mrs. Wang snorted coldly: "I just don't want to see Lin Sushuang's proud face."

Hualan knew that her mother wouldn't listen, so she could only change the subject and said, "Mom, the reason why Lin Xiaoniang is favored by her father is because she knows that her father is a soft-spoken man but not a tough one. If you have anything to do in your daily life, please talk to your father. Don't fight him."

"You want me to learn her charming tricks?" Mrs. Wang said displeasedly: "How embarrassing would it be for me, a noble lady, to imitate a concubine?"

Hualan: "..."

How could she ask her mother to imitate Lin Xiaoniang? Besides, Wang could not imitate Lin Xiaoniang's methods.

She just wanted to advise Wang not to be so aggressive when talking to her father.

Every time she clearly had the advantage, but because she spoke too hastily, she annoyed her father and lost her advantage.

As long as Wang could obey his father, how could he allow Lin Xiaoniang to become so arrogant?

Hua Lan sighed. Her mother couldn't listen to her words at all, and it was useless no matter how much she said.

……

Hualan took her daughter to the Sheng family, and Yuan Wenshao always felt a little worried.

He knew that Sanlan had a lot of troubles before getting married, and he was worried that his daughter would be implicated.

However, Hualan insisted that there was nothing he could do.

"My lord, I would like to see you, the second young master." The servant reported.

"Huh? Why is he here again?"

Yuan Wenshao was a little confused, but he still invited Gu Tingye to the front hall.

When he came to the front hall, Gu Tingye stood up and asked, "Did my brother come after I left you that day?"

"Yes, he came to ask where you were going. I said I didn't know, and he left."

After Yuan Wenshao finished speaking, he saw something wrong with Gu Tingye's face and asked, "What happened?"

"Mannian was taking care of two children by herself. I was worried that she wouldn't be able to take care of her, so I sent someone to pick up my nanny from Yangzhou. When I was going to pick up her at the pier yesterday, I felt someone was following me. I found out after I caught him and asked. It was sent by my elder brother. He knew that I had children in my foster home, so he sent people to follow me and want to find them." Gu Tingye said with an ugly face.

"You mean, your brother came that day to inquire about the whereabouts of your outer room? Then why did he leave after just asking?" Yuan Wenshao asked strangely.

He had been wondering about the purpose of Gu Tingyu's visit before, but when Gu Tingye said this, he could explain it.

But Gu Tingyu didn't ask any more questions that day, which left him confused.

"Haha." Gu Tingye sneered: "My brother is very tight. To be honest, if it weren't for his poor health, few of his peers would be his opponent in terms of strategic skills. The reason why he left after asking was Because he could see that you weren't lying, he guessed that you didn't know where my outer room was, so he didn't ask any more questions."

"Since he knows that you have children outside your adopted home, if he wants to make a fuss about it, he can just tell your father directly. Why does he have to find someone? After all, they are his nephews and nieces. He can't possibly want to harm them, right? "

Yuan Wenshao had no doubts about Gu Tingyu's strategies.

However, Yuan Wenshao felt that although Gu Tingyu hated Gu Tingye, he still had some sense.

Otherwise, with his methods, Gu Tingye would have been killed by him long ago.

After all, they were brothers, and Gu Tingyu still had some family affection. However, because he believed that the Bai family had killed his mother, he hated Gu Tingye and wanted to drive him out, not wanting him to inherit the title.

"I have a reputation as a prodigal in Bianjing, and there were many rumors that I had an illegitimate child. Without proof, my father would not really believe it." Gu Tingye said.

He didn't know many things before. After learning about the existence of the Bai family, he once doubted the cause of his mother's death.

This was also the reason why he avoided seeing Gu Yankai.

He was afraid that he would learn some news from Gu Yan that he could not accept.

However, yesterday, Grandma Chang told him everything that happened back then, and he only knew what happened back then.

I also know why his father and brother have disliked him since he was a child.

He has been plotted against everywhere over the years, and he thinks it was Gu Tingyu who did it.

Yuan Wenshao opened his mouth and said seriously, Gu Tingyu and Gu Tingye were both poor people, and they were all taken advantage of by the Xiao Qin family.

However, given Gu Tingyu's physical condition, he might not have been able to survive that long if he hadn't been supported by hatred.

However, Xiao Qin has always been a loving mother in Gu Tingye's heart, and he wouldn't believe her even if she told her.

He still had to wait until Gu Yankai died and her true face was revealed so that Gu Tingye could see through her.

"Erlang, some things may not be that simple. I am an outsider after all, and it is not convenient for me to say more. You should think more about it when you encounter problems." Yuan Wenshao said.

"Thank you. If my brother comes again, tell him that my outer room is in Bianjing, and if he has the ability, find it." Gu Tingye said coldly.

When Yuan Wenshao heard the words, he knew that he didn't listen at all. He nodded and didn't bother to say more.

……

At ten o'clock in the evening, Hua Lan returned home with her daughter.

As soon as Sister Wen saw her father, she ran over. When she got close, she seemed to have thought of something. She stopped, made a fist with her right hand, wrapped her left hand with her right hand, raised her two thumbs and crossed them, and made a cross-hand salute, saying : "I met my father."

Yuan Wenshao was stunned, picked up his daughter, and said with a smile, "Did you learn this today?"

"Well, Grandma Kong said that when you see your elders, you should cross your hands, and your peers should perform the Wanfu salute." Sister Wen said proudly.

"Yeah, is there anything else?" Yuan Wenshao laughed.

"There are also some kneeling rituals that need to be performed when meeting the official queen mother, and there are also etiquettes that need to be learned when offering sacrifices. There are so many that I haven't even remembered them." Sister Wen chirped.

"It seems that our sister Wen is a bit stupid." Yuan Wenshao pinched her nose and smiled.

"No, fifth aunt is stupid. She can't learn many things, and she was told by Aunt Kong. Aunt Kong didn't say anything about me, but she praised me." Sister Wen said dissatisfied.

"Stop showing off, it's not because Aunt Kong thinks you're young, so she's not so strict with you." Hua Lan stepped forward and pinched her face, and said to Yuan Wenshao: "Aunt Kong said that many etiquettes are difficult for children. It’s done to a standard, after all, her body hasn’t grown yet, so the requirements for her are much lower, you can see that she is proud of it.”

"I just said that Sister Wen is still young and it is too early to learn the rules and etiquette." Yuan Wenshao said.

"It's too early. Anyway, Grandma Kong is not strict with her. It's always good to learn a little bit," Hua Lan said.
