Chapter 438 Teach

After a while, the maids of Shu Palace brought trays and served dishes to the female guests.

The dishes of Wangfu are very characteristic, they are stir-fried dishes that were once popular in the capital.

At that time, although the Cui family stepped in and incorporated stir-frying into Cui's recipes, everyone in the upper class of the capital knew that it was Cui Sanniang, the concubine of the Cui family, who invented stir-frying and used it as a signature dish in the restaurant opened by her family.

This is one of the reasons why Cui Wei has been criticized by others.

Still the same sentence, Cui Wei can invent new dishes, this one can have it, open restaurants, do business, this one can also have it.But she must not be as flamboyant as she is. I wish I could tell people all over the capital with drums and gongs that Cui Sanniang is so capable, good at cooking, and good at business management. She is simply a wealthy woman in the market.

'Wealthy girl in the market', this is a certain lady's evaluation of Cui Wei, please note that this is by no means a compliment.

Even if Cui Wei is not a daughter of an aristocratic family, she really comes from the market, and some people call her a rich woman from the market, but they do not really praise her.

At that time, the word market well was not a compliment. When people cursed, the most commonly used word was 'market slave'.

In addition, Cui Wei came from the Cui family, so for a daughter of a family like her, even a concubine, to be ridiculed like this is also a question of the Cui family's upbringing.

Therefore, the Patriarch of the Cui family took action directly, forcing the wine shop to change its name, not to use the word 'Cui', and then took back all the cooking recipes.

At that time, Cui Wei didn't understand, and once urged Cui Huibo to resist, but was suppressed by Xiao Liushi—Cui Wei didn't understand Cui Ze's meaning, but Xiao Liushi understood that if they dared to object again, Cui Ze would definitely expel them directly from Cui Hui. Home, with the name of the Zheng family.

Cui Ze is a typical patriarch of the ancient tradition, who emphasizes that the father is the guide for the son, and everything must proceed from the interests of the family.If someone tries to challenge the authority of the patriarch and violate the family rules and ancestral precepts, Cui Zeding will unceremoniously teach him a lesson, no matter if the person is his son or nephew or niece.

If you don't accept the family's ruling?That's easy to do, directly expelled from the family and completely divorced from the Cui family. At that time, let alone your brothers and sisters want to start a business, even if you sell yourself and become a lowly citizen, he and the entire Cui family will not care.

After hearing Xiaoliu's remarks back then, Cui Wei still felt that her sister-in-law was making a big fuss, and her mind was still full of thinking patterns of future generations. In her mind, her own father didn't care. Cui Ze, an uncle, has no right to treat him like this she?
Times have changed, and now Cui Wei thinks of the mistakes she made in the past, and she can't help but smile wryly, alas, when I read novels in the past, I always imagined what would happen if I time-traveled.Unexpectedly, it was so difficult to really live in ancient times.

After several years of hard work, I bumped into walls everywhere, was criticized everywhere, was reprimanded by my mother-in-law at her natal home, and scolded by her mother-in-law after she got married... I have stumbled along the way, and only I know the hardships.

Now that she has become a princess, she is still being ridiculed in public. Cui Wei thinks of these bad things, and even the delicious dishes are tasteless in her mouth.

On the contrary, Xiao Nan and a few acquainted wives had a great time eating, and Lingxi and a few other friends also had a good time.

When leaving in the afternoon, Lingxi reluctantly waved goodbye to the young ladies he just met.

"Lingxi, did you have fun today? Are those little ladies getting along well?"

After getting into the carriage, Xiao Nan took out the handkerchief, and carefully wiped the beads of sweat from Lingxi's forehead.

"Well," Lingxi nodded vigorously, counting the little friends she knew with her little fingers, "the aunt of the Cheng family, Chai Siniang of the eldest princess's family, the aunt of the Tang family, the third mother of the Su family, and the second daughter of the eldest grandson's family." Mother, they are all excellent, I like to play with them very much. The second mother of the eldest grandson's family also said that her family will hold a banquet in the future, and she wants to invite me to go. "

While talking, Lingxi raised her little head, looked at her mother with a little pleading, and said to her chubby little finger, "Mother, can I, can I go?"

After helping Lingxi wipe off his sweat, Xiao Nan put away the handkerchief and asked, "Do you want to go? Or have you already agreed?"

Lingxi nodded first and then shook his head, the long hair on the little girl fluttered back and forth, very cute, "I want to go, but I didn't directly agree, I have to ask my mother about it. Mother, if that There is no arrangement for the day, let's go to the eldest grandson's house, okay? Isn't the little aunt here too, let's go and see the little aunt, okay?"

Xiao Nan pretended to be embarrassed and said: "But in case the eldest grandson's family didn't send an invitation to our family, we just went so rashly, isn't it a little rude?"

As his daughter grew up, Xiao Nan also began to consciously take her out to socialize, firstly to increase her knowledge, and secondly to open up contacts for her, the little girl should also start to have her own girlfriends.

However, before that, Xiao Nan still needs to teach her some rules in a timely manner, so that she can understand some ways of the world, so that the little guy will not have any inappropriate words and deeds in front of others.

Lingxi was stunned, then smiled and said: "Probably not, our family and the eldest grandson's family are related by marriage, and their family will definitely invite us to a banquet, otherwise the eldest grandson Erniang would not invite me." Children, but at least know the rules.

If the adults didn't express their views, these little bean dings wouldn't open their mouths casually. After all, there are no idiots who grew up in this circle, and there is still some common sense.

Lingxi's brows and eyes were curved, she smiled cutely, and said: "In addition, Erniang Changsun also said that after returning home, she will write a post in person and order someone to send it to our family's Bieye, and formally invite me to the banquet in her name Of course, it would be even better if Auntie could accompany me."

Xiao Nan smiled in satisfaction, rubbed Lingxi's nose, and said, "Hehe, you little fellows are all ghost spirits." He had quite a wink, knowing which ones could socialize.

Lingxi raised her chin and said triumphantly: "Of course, my cousin came to visit me yesterday and said that my aunt was teaching her housekeeping. She was not sure about some questions, so she asked me specifically."

Xiao Nan raised his eyebrows, Mrs. Wang was looking for Cui Han's husband's family, it's normal to teach her about housekeeping at this time, but she never expected that Cui Han would say this to Lingxi.

After thinking about it, Xiao Nan pretended to be casual and asked: "Oh? What are the problems? Is it difficult? Lingxi also tell A Niang?"

Lingxi pouted and thought about it for a while, then picked the most difficult question, explained it carefully to Xiao Nan, and finally asked: "Aniang, if the matter is really as the cousin said, she finally caught it. A corrupt slave, but that person is the confidant of my aunt, how should I deal with this person?"

Xiao Nan frowned slightly, and asked instead of answering: "If you encounter such a problem, how should you deal with it?"

"This one……"

Lingxi sat cross-legged on the seat, chubby put his chin on his hand, pondered for a moment, and said after deliberation: "I think first to make sure that Diao Nu is really as loyal as my aunt said? If he has no other evil deeds other than greed, Then deal with it. As for how to deal with it, well, first look at his corruption, if it is Xiaocai, call her here alone, and then put the account book in front of her to see how she reacts."

Xiao Nan felt that what his daughter said had some meaning, so he nodded secretly, and interjected at the right time, "Oh, what if she pleaded guilty? So what if she didn't plead guilty?"

Lingxi raised her chubby fingers, and said in an orderly manner: "If she admits her mistake obediently, then tell her that it is her duty to read it, and if she knows how to repent, the matter will be over and she will be fined for a few months. As a punishment, let her continue to work, A Niang said that when the water is clear, there will be no fish, and in a family like ours, slaves and servants who are greedy for small wealth and things are not worth anything, so it should not be too strict."

After finishing speaking, the little guy subconsciously looked at Xiao Nan, saw that his mother had no expression, and raised his finger again, "If she refuses to admit it, then show her all the evidence and let her know that she did The masters know all about the nasty things.

Now that she has made a mistake but refuses to admit it, it is not only the fault of greed for money, but also the fault of 'deceiving the master'. The two crimes will be punished together, and she will be handed over to the torture room to be dealt with according to family rules.Well, if I remember correctly, according to the family rules, she should be punished with twenty rods, and then sent to the saltworks or farm to do hard labor. "

Xiao Nan pretended to be puzzled, "Didn't you just say that people like us shouldn't be too strict with slaves?"

The little guy rolled his eyes ungracefully, and explained: "Mother, you also said that everyone makes mistakes, but some mistakes can be forgiven, and some mistakes can't be forgiven. If you are greedy for small money, remember your duty. Such mistakes can be forgiven; but deceiving the master is too serious, it is a matter of principle, and must be severely punished."

Xiao Nan thought for a while, then asked again: "If this person has embezzled a lot of money, how should he deal with it?"

The little guy scratched his chin and said: "Well, then order someone to investigate the situation at the servant's house. If there is a special reason, then call her quietly and ask her alone. How to deal with it depends on the specific situation. ;

If there is no special reason, then order someone to re-check all the circumstances of the servant since she was on duty to see if she has any criminal records.If it is a habitual offender, it will be severely punished according to the family rules. "

Finally, Lingxi concluded: "Actually, the most important thing to do is to set up a department responsible for supervision like A Niang, and conduct spot checks every once in a while, so that problems can be discovered in time and deterred. Those small-minded slaves will not wait for something to happen before trying to deal with it like what my aunt said."

There is another sentence that I didn't say. When Xiao Nan punished her nurse, he once said: You can trust slaves, but you can't indulge them. No matter how loyal a slave is, if there is no necessary supervision, it will have a different heart after a long time. .

At that time, she seemed to understand but half understood, but as she got older and followed Xiao Nan to see how she handled the housework, she gradually understood.

Xiao Nan nodded in satisfaction, and praised without hesitation: "Well, Lingxi's words are really good, well-organized, with a degree of severity, you can think so thoroughly at a young age, A Niang is proud of you." At the age of six and a half, it is very rare to be able to think of so many things.

Lingxi was a little embarrassed, and laughed twice, "It's all taught by my mother, and my masters, they will occasionally tell anecdotes about the market during their lectures. After listening to a lot, my daughter will naturally think about it." many."

On the other side, Li Rong is also making preparations. Starting tomorrow, he will start teaching the three little buns how to ride horses, practice swords and play Cuju...
