Chapter 17

It is naturally impossible to say that you don't care or feel wronged.Even if she really doesn't care and doesn't feel wronged, she can't show it in front of Li Shi. She is too detached, and it will only make her more wary.

"If the major events in a woman's life can be perfect, who can tolerate a little flaw. I don't understand the truth of what the third aunt said. She considers these things for the fifth sister, but you also understand, old lady, that the fifth sister cannot be before me. Married. She was wronged by Fifth Younger Sister. Although I am not Jin Gui than Fifth Younger Sister, I should be more wronged than Fifth Younger Sister. But if I want to care about how wronged I am, what I should care about is the situation of the past ten years." Xu Jiatong knelt down with a "boom".

Li Shi was startled, and instinctively reached out to help her up, froze for a moment, retracted her hand, straightened her spine and said, "What do you want to say?"

The corners of Xu Jiatong's eyes were red, and he choked with sobs and said, "Since my father is the old lady's own son, I am your own granddaughter just like Fifth Sister. If my uncle is still alive and Mrs. Tai is still as beautiful as before, I can understand you The difficulty of having to keep me by her side. But Mrs. Tai has long since lost her chance to stand up. Why did you put me there? If Mrs. Tai’s good intentions were not still alive, I always hope that one day I can be by your and father’s side as much as possible. Xiao, I am afraid that even if I am not starved to death or frozen to death, I have already become an illiterate and useless person. Old lady, I don’t want to blame anyone, but I just want to know why?”

As these words were said tearfully, the hesitation in Li Shi's eyes finally subsided, so she finally began to feel how much could a young girl who had just grown up grow up in such a humble place have? Mind and ability, suddenly seeing the former wealth, how can I not be tempted.

Originally, she was worried that there would be no suitable time to say this to Mrs. Li, but Mrs. Zheng presented such a good opportunity to her, and she couldn't do without it.

"Things are old and missing, and my grievances are trivial, but I really want to ask about this matter. Old lady, why did you reject me, my own granddaughter?" Xu Jiatong struck while the iron was hot, this time crying flow all over the face.

Mrs. Li sighed, helped her up, let her sit next to her for the first time and said: "She raised you back then, it was due to the rules, and it was also the decision of the elders of the clan. Don't look at me now, but she is still too old. Ma'am, even if it goes underground."

"It's my fault that I didn't understand your difficulties." Xu Jiatong wanted to kneel down again. Although this was not the whole reason, it was just that Li Shi was willing to speak, so it was not impossible to know the truth.

Mrs. Li stopped her, and changed the subject: "However, you just said that the matter of guarding Foyuan Pavilion is just a trivial grievance, but it is a grievance after all, so you decided to endure it?"

"Although my father is trusted by the king, there are many families in Xidu that are higher than our Xu family. In the future, I will meet many children of these families, and I will even marry into such a family. I eat simple food and walk around the corners If you grow up with a tail, you will have to suffer more grievances in the future. If you can't bear even this, how can you bear the grievances a hundred times, a thousand times." Xu Jiatong spoke the truth this time.

In an instant, Mrs. Li's heart turned a thousand times, and she also looked at the young woman in front of her for the first time. Mrs. Cao's ability to raise Xu Jiatong to such a state was really beyond her expectations.But the Cao family is not a person who can raise flesh and blood for the enemy, Xu Jiatong is able to do this because it is her Li family's blood, she can't help but secretly proud.

"Okay, let's stop talking about this, your glorious days are coming later." Li Shi laughed, looked at her and said, "Tell me, how did you meet Dai Yuanguan? How did you make him approve of you?" of?"

There was only one face-to-face encounter with Dai Yuanguan, and Xu Jiatong was self-aware, knowing that that short side was not enough for Dai Yuanguan to speak well of her in front of Xu Xiaozu.

But if there is only that side, it seems that there is some connection in the dark that she cannot know, so inextricably linked and unspeakable.

But none of these can be her explanation to Li Shi, it is the same as the previous episode.

If Mrs. Li fully understands the relationship between her, Jinxiufang and Dai Yuanguan, Mrs. Li will not only feel that her city is too deep, but also use her without any room.

If it is not clear at all, it will attract Li Shi's contempt, and even take advantage of Dai Yuanguan's attention to try every means to push Xu Jiaqing over.

"Master Duan from Jinxiufang once showed my embroidered things to Mr. Dai. Mr. Dai looked good, and then asked me outside the house and asked a few words through the door. The Dai family intends to cooperate with Jinxiufang. I also opened one in both of them, and I happened to be going back to the Western Capital too, Master Dai said that I could go there more in the future, so that female celebrities would not be abandoned." Xu Jiatong said.

Mrs. Li didn't realize the flaw, and asked: "It seems that Master Dai is very fond of you, has he allowed to enter the Jinxiu Workshop in the Western Capital?"

"Grandpa Dai loves talents, which is naturally allowed. Besides, Master Duan will go to take care of her for a while, and I can help her with some trivial matters. But you also know that there are many capable people around Master Dai, so there must be arrangements. I can't do anything, just let me find some entertainment and spread some fame." Xu Jiatong said with a smile.

Painting workshops, porcelain kilns, paper workshops, weaving workshops... If they are favored by dignitaries, literati and refined scholars, and if there are a few who enter the Shang Palace, there will indeed be many ladies who enter the court every year, and some of them want to follow the Shang Palace. Some of the people on the road to enter the palace are to worship famous teachers to gain some fame, and some are to rely on what they have learned to manage some industries after they get married.

And these places accept famous ladies to start, and they will naturally get the support of the families behind them, mutual benefit, and naturally give them many opportunities to benefit.

But there are very few who can really participate in the operation, they are just passers-by, and the better ones are just to get some convenience when their own business intersects with them in the future.

This is also expected, Mrs. Li nodded and said: "It is enough to be talented and famous. When we arrive in Xidu, we should learn from your mother to be a housekeeper. In the future, we will not lose our eyes and be laughed at by the in-laws." But it is a good thing that you have such a relationship with the Dai family, the Dai family has a lot of property, and your father is in the Ministry of Industry, maybe there will be a time when they will be useful."

"What you said is that I know what to do." Xu Jiatong smiled knowingly, implying that she would carefully maintain this relationship so that it would not be severed.

When he said these words, Xu Jiatong couldn't help but imagine Dai Yuanguan's kind face towards her, with a sallow face, smiling like an elder looking at a junior, and felt that there was absolutely no such possibility.

He should look down on her from the bottom of his heart, so inexplicably bitter and mean, as if she was a little ant at his feet, as long as he lifts his feet, she can be instantly wiped out.

She suddenly had a feeling of injustice in her heart. If she hadn't been detained in such a place since she was a child, she would have done something, at least she would not be so useless.Fortunately, the situation has changed now. Sooner or later, when she will let him mention her, her tone will no longer be contemptuous and mocking.

"Have you visited Mrs. Tai in the past few days?" Li's tone was indifferent, still very concerned about that seemingly insignificant old enemy.
