The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

Now the attitude of the King of Jingyang is so clear, telling everyone outside that he attaches great importance to this marriage. In the future, the young lady from the Duke of Ying's Mansion will marry there, and her status will be noble and important.

With such an attitude, the Duke of Ying's wife is relieved. Why is she not happy?

Happy, very happy.

Although the Duke of Ying's Mansion has a weak foundation and cannot compare with those aristocratic families that have been passed down for hundreds of years, the people of the Duke of Ying's Mansion will not be too picky. When considering a marriage, they only look at how much betrothal gifts the other party brings. As long as the betrothal gifts are large, they will marry their daughters off.

"After meeting Huairen, I found that he is indeed a very good person." Li Shao said, "Although he was not recognized by the emperor until he grew up, he is gentle, polite, knowledgeable, and polite. In addition, he has been polite these days. He is no worse than the other noble men in Chang'an City. As for the reputation of him outside, there may be some complaints, but if you don't meet people and see them with your own eyes, your thoughts will definitely be biased."

"It seems that you have a good impression of your future husband." Lady Yingguo looked at her daughter with a smile on her face.

Li Shao sat on the round stool and thought slightly.

"The impression is indeed different from the beginning."

"Since the last time you two toured Chang'an City, your thoughts have changed from before?" Lady Yingguo asked curiously.

"It's not an idea, but an impression." Li Shao smiled and said, "Isn't it normal that there is a change after contact?"

As for Li Fujunzi's six arts, it's okay if he doesn't understand them. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses.

I am good at wielding swords and guns, but not at sewing.

Regarding this, Li Shao is open-minded.

"This time, mother thought that Huairen asked us to go over and take a look at the manor, and he also wanted to make us feel at ease and give us some confidence." Lady Yingguo told her daughter her thoughts.

"Confidence?" Li Shao was puzzled: "Why does mother think so?"

Isn't Yingguo Mansion confidence? In addition, even if the two sides get married, they will live as a couple after marriage, and the opinions of others are not that important.

"Today, mother will teach you something. For marriages between wealthy families, it is certainly important for the couple to live a good life behind closed doors. However, if you are born in a wealthy family and enjoy power and wealth, you must shoulder the corresponding responsibilities. For example, in the future, when Huairen is entertaining and handling foreign affairs, you must do everything in the mansion so that Huairen does not have any worries and can do big things outside with peace of mind. Then, are these trivial matters in the house just chores at home?

If it is just that simple, the family can take care of it by hiring a few more housekeepers. Shao'er, do you understand the weight of the four words "mistress of the house"?

"Take this time when we are going to the manor, why did Huairen write a letter to ask your father to go with him, and even expected that your father could not go with him, and even invited the Yan family and the Jiang family "

"Because there is no female family member who can be the head of the Jingyang Palace, it is inconvenient to receive other female family members who visit there. These things are not done by the housekeeper. The most appropriate person is the mistress of the house.

In other words, as the mistress of the house, you should not only handle the internal affairs of the house, but also properly handle the interpersonal relationships between the female family members in the circle. This is the most important knowledge.

You can't say that your husband is working hard outside, and you don't contact outsiders in the inner house. What's more, you don't know the height of the world, and you don't have the bearing of a wife of the house. When you interact with people outside, you offend everyone and cause a lot of trouble for your husband. "

Lady Yingguo told her daughter all her years of experience as the head of the house.

Before getting married, you must teach your daughter well.

In the past, when there was no marriage, these things were a little lax, but now that the marriage is being discussed, you naturally have to teach well, rules, and interpersonal relationships.

The wife of the Duke of Ying, when she gets married, she must have the bearing of a wife.

"After you marry Huairen, whether it is the Jingyang Palace in Chang'an City or the house on the farm, if there are female relatives visiting, or inviting you to participate in some activities, you, as the mistress of the house, must handle it properly..."

After hearing this, Li Shao sighed slightly.

"These years, mother has really worked hard. When I was young, I didn't understand my mother at all. I was so unfilial." Li Shao felt a little guilty.

"How can I blame you for this? When you were a child, you were not in good health, and mother was reluctant to let youLearning so many tiring things in advance, as for the affairs of the Duke of England's mansion, in the early years, the world was turbulent, your father was away, and I stayed at home, which was indeed hard, but ah, I finally got through it, and now, I am not so tired. "

"Especially you, your health has improved, and you have such a good marriage, mother is happy from the bottom of my heart." The Duke of England's wife said, her eyes became warm.

On the farm, Li Fu sat under the porch, watching the rain dripping in the yard. The weather was gloomy, and the raindrops fell in the yard one by one, pattering, and from time to time there was a breeze blowing, chilly.

Xiao Tao came out of the house, took a thin blanket, and covered Li Fu with it.

"It has been raining for most of the day, and there is no sign of stopping, but don't say it, this rain, and then a gust of wind, it is really cool. "Xiao Tao said as she arranged the blanket for Li Fu.

Before it rained, Xiao Tao always wore a long skirt with a thin gauze on the outside.

This time it rained, Xiao Tao's clothes became more conservative, and she changed into a single layer of clothes on the outside.

"It rains for a long time, even in the hot summer, it is hard to have a cool time, which is good. Rain like this is fine, but if it is continuous heavy rain, the people will suffer." Li Fu said.

"Yes."

Speaking of this, Xiao Tao was still scared.

Because it remembered that it rained for too long last year, and the village almost flooded. Even if the river bank was protected, several families in the village had their walls and houses collapsed.

"This year, Jiang Shaojiang led people to repair the river channel, river bank and canal, so there should be no problem." Xiao Tao said.

"Well, it took so much effort, isn't it just for safety? "Li Fu said: "By the way, it's raining today, are Old Yan and the others at home?"

Xiao Tao shook her head.

"Master Yan and Master Jiang are both out."
