Daughter of General

Chapter 15 Lessons
But Shen Yulan knew very well that it was impossible for Guo Shi to call her over just to give her a piece of fabric.Therefore, in fact, this seemingly inadvertent question is actually the real purpose.

The Guo family must have known about Mrs. Guangwuhou.

As for who said it, it is self-evident.

However, this matter was not a secret at all, and Shen Yulan didn't intend to hide it from anyone, it's just that the behavior of snitching behind the scenes was something that people didn't like.

"As for my wife, I met Mrs. Guangwuhou in the temple. Mrs. Guangwuhou sent us some pastries." Shen Yulan replied with a smile.

"Oh? Then what else did you say?" Guo Shi asked again, but the movements in his hands slowed down.His expression also seemed more focused.

Shen Yulan shook her head: "I didn't say anything, Mrs. Guangwuhou was very kind, she asked me some homely things, asked me if I was used to it when I first came to the capital, and said, in the future, I will let me live with them in addition to my filial piety." Going to play with some girls. That's all."

"Oh?" Guo raised her eyebrows, somewhat surprised, and then smiled: "Then I will prepare a gift for you in return. Since Mrs. Guangwuhou likes you, you and Yushan will visit more often." That's good too. I heard that the girls in the Marquis Guangwu's mansion are all talented and virtuous. You should learn more."

Shen Yulan respectfully agreed.

After Mrs. Guo said a few more words, she suddenly said something in her words: "I heard from the person who went with you today that you had a dispute with the nanny who went with you? Did you embarrass the nanny?"

Shen Yulan bit her lips, but she didn't try to defend herself: "That's what happened. But——"

Before Shen Yulan's excuse came out, Guo's face was already dark and said: "It stands to reason that I am not easy to discipline you. It's just that your mother is gone now, and I am the wife who is in charge, so I can't leave it alone. It's not that I said you I don't know the rules, but the nanny who went with me is an old man in the mansion, and she speaks for your own good. You are young and temperamental, and if you think the nanny is talking about you, it's fine if you teach me in private. But you shouldn't do it in public To do such a thing in front of so many people. Let people see, isn't it a joke that the girls in our house have no rules?"

Guo's words seemed to reprimand Shen Yulan from the perspective of an elder.And it seems that there are reasons everywhere, which makes people unable to argue.

Moreover, no matter how it sounds, it sounds like Shen Yulan has no rules.

It wasn't that Shen Yulan was careless, she always felt that when Mrs. Guo said this, she was passing along Mrs. Wu, intentionally or unintentionally saying that Mrs. Wu would not teach children how to behave.There is a smell of contempt.

Shen Yulan's face darkened slightly.

Guo Shi saw it clearly, snorted coldly in his heart, and his complexion became a little darker.After a long while, he said indifferently: "I know that you don't like to listen to me when I say it. I always feel that I am meddling in other people's business. But no matter how you like it, I have to say it. You are not a country farmer now. Girl, you can do whatever you want, or you will ruin your reputation, but you are not the only one who suffers."

Shen Yulan raised her head, met Guo Shi's eyes directly, then raised her eyebrows and smiled slightly: "Then madam thinks I did something wrong today?"

"Of course it's wrong." Mrs. Guo said firmly.

"Then, even if that old woman, as a slave, said that not taking a car is a sign of low status, threatening me, the master, to do what she wants, I should be obedient, obediently accept that I can't resist ?” Shen Yulan’s smile deepened a bit: “Even though I’m from the countryside and don’t know too many rules, my mother taught me a truth since I was a child; The servants can handle it. Otherwise, people will only laugh at us and say that we have no rules and make people laugh for nothing."

After a pause, Shen Yulan raised her eyebrows and continued: "But my wife taught me this way again today. It seems that the rules here are different from those in the capital? Then I will just do what my wife told me in the future. Oh, By the way, today I heard from the little novice monk in the temple that in order to show his sincerity, many noble wives walk up in person without sitting in a sedan chair. There are even some who kneel down three times and kowtow nine times. So, I don’t understand Now, I just want to ask my wife, next time I go, do I follow my mother’s advice and take a car to separate myself from lowly people, or go with the crowd?”

Mrs. Guo was very depressed at this time - that's not what the mother-in-law said when she complained.Moreover, she didn't expect Shen Yulan to refute her with such a long speech.He also ridiculed her for not knowing the rules.He was caught by the servants.

But no matter what the mother-in-law said, she was also a member of Guo Shi, and Guo Shi had already said that just now, so naturally there was no reason to slap her face at this time.So he pursed his lips, squinted his eyes and said in a cold voice: "Anyway, the nanny is also an old man in the house, so your attitude should be gentler. You shouldn't do that and you shouldn't give face. This is a mean performance! Let's calm down Although the family is not an aristocratic family, it is also a family of good deeds, and there is absolutely no precedent for treating the elderly in the mansion like this."

Shen Yulan only looked at Guo Shi's attitude, and knew that Guo Shi was determined to protect him to the end.At the moment, he didn't confront her any more, and lowered his head and readily admitted his mistake: "Yes, I was angry at the time, and my tone was a little harsher. I will remember it next time."

Guo's expression softened slightly, feeling that he had the upper hand.But before Mrs. Guo felt more at ease, Shen Yulan opened her mouth again: "However, I want my wife to tell me what my mother-in-law said today. Is it right or wrong? I should listen to it." What? Or shouldn’t you listen?”

Seeing Shen Yulan's serious expression, Mrs. Guo was so angry that her heart trembled - her dislike for Shen Yulan surged even more.

Guo felt that Shen Yulan was deliberately provoking, deliberately not showing her face.

Guo really wanted Shen Yulan to get out of her way, at least out of her sight.But Mrs. Guo opened her mouth, but she didn't do what she wanted.

But Mrs. Guo guessed right, Shen Yulan did it on purpose.Asking this intentionally, firstly, it makes Guo Shi unhappy, secondly, it makes Guo Shi feel ashamed, and thirdly, it makes the girls in the room see that she is not letting Guo Shi handle her.To a certain extent, she could swallow her anger, but once it exceeded a certain limit, it would be different.

This is the so-called bottom line.

Moreover, Shen Yulan wanted to let these servants of the Shen family understand the fact that she, Shen Yulan, could be manipulated by Mrs. Guo, because Mrs. Guo was her elder.But she will never be manipulated by the slaves, because she is the master.

However, although Mrs. Guo didn't say anything outrageous, she couldn't hold back her anger. She stared at Shen Yulan coldly and asked, "What do you mean? What do you want to do by saying this?"

Shen Yulan lowered her head, with a respectful and harmless look: "What does Madam mean? What Madam said is completely different from what I learned before, so I just ask Madam what to do in the future. Why is Madam acting like this?" response? Am I asking the wrong question?"

Guo Shi felt that his heart was blocked by a big piece of steamed bun, so choked that he couldn't speak.I can't wait to beat my chest and stamp my feet.

Shen Yulan looked at Guo Shi's appearance, and sneered unkindly in her heart.Guo Shi made her unhappy, even if she had to suffer this loss, Guo Shi didn't want to feel happy.

So what if we win?Anyway, Guo Shi will never enjoy the thrill of victory.In this way, Mrs. Guo is afraid that she will be aggrieved to death, right?
Shen Yulan thought viciously, but her face still showed a harmless and ignorant look.

In the end, I didn't expect that Mother Qin beside Mrs. Guo said, "Miss Yulan, what Madam means is that although the old man needs to be respected, the master should behave like a master. This is true everywhere. Yes. However, if Miss Yulan is dissatisfied with the servants in the future, just tell the wife, and the wife will discipline herself, and Miss Yulan doesn't have to do it herself."

While saying this, Mother Qin bumped Mrs. Guo lightly.

Guo came back to his senses, with a sleepy look, completely gone from his previous appearance, and waved his hand weakly: "Okay, that's it. That's what I mean, I'm tired. You can go back too."

"Yes, Madam, take a good rest." Shen Yulan retreated respectfully.Then he walked briskly all the way back to his yard.

After Shen Yulan left, Nanny Qin smiled and said: "It seems that Marquis Guangwu wants to have more contact with us. This is a good thing. I heard that there are several young masters in their house. If so — that's a good thing."

"Marquis Guangwu is not familiar with us, let's take a look again. Besides, I prefer the grandson of the eldest princess. That child seems to have a good temper, and he is also extremely favored. If this thing really happens, in the future Yushan's future is not worrying." Guo Shi sighed, and then said so after pondering for a moment, but then added: "But Guangwuhou will also look at it. Don't worry."

Qin Nanny nodded: "It's not that I need to take a closer look. Although Miss Yushan is not yet ten years old, she should pay attention to the appropriate one earlier, and don't have to worry about being preempted by others."

"That's what I mean too." Mrs. Guo nodded with a smile, and then said: "In a few days, the child will come to play with my sister-in-law's child, and then let Yushan get along with the eldest princess' grandson. It would be even better if I could cultivate some affection. However, that girl must be avoided when the time comes. Don't mess things up."

"It's fine to find any excuse at that time. Madam, don't worry." Mother Qin said with a smile, her tone was natural.

Mrs. Guo responded, and said again: "Master, you should also pay attention to that girl, he is very important to that girl now."

Mentioning Shen Yulan, Guo gritted her teeth: "That girl is so annoying. Why didn't she die with that bitch Wu? If she died together at that time, how could there be such a thing? No way. People are annoying."

Nanny Qin's expression changed immediately, and she glanced around vigilantly at those little girls, then she frowned and said to Mrs. Guo: "You can't talk nonsense, if people hear it, it will ruin your wife's reputation. Besides, no matter how smart and capable a little girl is, she still has to marry? If she gets married, she will belong to someone else's family. "

Guo Shi was still unhappy, but she also shut up under Qin Nanny's nervous eyes.

Nanny Qin approached Mrs. Guo, and lowered her voice: "Madam, don't mention this matter again. That mind has been moved again. Some things are irreversible. The master is not confused. In case... That's an incredible thing."

Guo Shi also looked dignified and nodded.
