Chapter 10 Old things
Aunt Qiao knew that Mrs. Xu's intention was to use her aunt from the palace to make up for the fact that the girl had no elders to teach her since she was a child. This was to earn fame for her own girl, so how could she not cooperate.

Aunt Qiao generously stepped forward and bowed to Mrs. Lu, saying: "I was originally the emcee of etiquette in the palace. After leaving the palace, I didn't meet my relatives. I went to Xin'an and met a bandit. I was rescued by General Xiao. If the general asks, stay with the girl and teach her a little bit."

Although she is now being supported by the General's Mansion, she was once a serious fifth-rank female official in the palace and did not consider herself inferior in front of the two old ladies.

Mrs. Lu was a little surprised. Most of the aunts who could be found in the palace would not leave the palace, let alone a serious fifth-grade female official.To be honest, the status of the fifth-rank female officials in this palace is not high, they are just the last female officials, but many small families and officials are willing to treat each other as their main wives and mistresses.

Most of the female officials who do not want to get married buy a house in Kyoto, and then accept a few girls from noble families to teach them and become respected female wives.

I didn't expect Xiao Huaien to be so blessed. In Xin'an, he could choose a female official who was born in the emcee of ceremonies to teach his daughter.In this way, no one would worry about Xiao Mingzhu's upbringing, but because of Aunt Qiao, many people would think highly of Xiao Mingzhu.

Mrs. Lu's heart moved and she asked Xiao Mingzhu a few more questions. Xiao Mingzhu answered very appropriately, always smiling, neither humble nor overbearing, and well-mannered, showing an excellent upbringing.

Mrs. Xu's smile became a little heavier: "I just heard people say that you have been copying scriptures in your house all morning?" Although the words were serious, they were more relaxed than usual.

"Yes." Xiao Mingzhu was a little guilty, but she still responded in a low voice. She was extremely grateful to Aunt Qiao for her foresight, and finished copying the scriptures for her while she was out to play.

Aunt Qiao presented the scripture to Mrs. Xu with both hands. Mrs. Xu opened it and looked at it, then nodded: "Tomorrow, I will send it to the Buddha for offering." Before she could close it, Mrs. Lu turned to take a look, I knew in my heart that the Plum Blossom Xiaokai could not be called beautiful, but it was more generous, well-behaved, and elegant.

Humanity is, the words are like the person.

Mrs. Lu's satisfaction in her heart was a little higher, and she couldn't help but praise Xiao Mingzhu again.Xiao Mingzhu was really embarrassed, she lowered her head shyly, with a three-point smile on her lips, which also left a deep impression on Mrs. Lu.

There are quite a few talented daughters from aristocratic families in Kyoto, and there are also many stunning ladies, but when I get old, I still like this kind of clean and cute little girl.

Anyway, Xiao Mingzhu won't be married for more than two years, so she can take her time to pay attention, and if it's really a good one, she will bring up the marriage again at that time.

Mrs. Lu patted the back of Xiao Mingzhu's hand kindly, took off an emerald green jade bracelet from her wrist and put it on Xiao Mingzhu's hand. Fuwan, I believe you sisters will get along well."

Mrs. Xu froze when she saw the jade bracelet, and said with a smile: "This thing is too precious."

Xiao Mingzhu heard the words and immediately wanted to take off the jade bracelet and return it to Mrs. Lu. Mrs. Lu quickly stopped Xiao Mingzhu's movements, "It's a gift from the elders, I can't resign." She pointed to Mrs. Xu again, and said with a smile: " Your grandmother also has a lot of good things, so you have to put in some effort to trick them out."

"How can you teach like this." Mrs. Xu stared at Mrs. Lu with a stern face, and Mrs. Lu smiled: "If you don't leave those good things to your granddaughter, do you still plan to take them away?"

Seeing that Mrs. Lu's speech became more and more unrestrained, Mrs. Xu's face could no longer be restrained, but she was unwilling to lose her dignity in front of Xiao Mingzhu, so she said to Xiao Mingzhu with a straight face: "Stay in the house and copy a piece of paper. You should be tired from the morning book, go back and have a rest."

Xiao Mingzhu sighed, got up, bowed politely and left.

Seeing Xiao Mingzhu leave the hall, Mrs. Lu put away her smile, and persuaded seriously: "Xiangyu, it's been so many years, and those past events should be let go. I see that sister Ming is also a filial child. She is only ten years old. Who doesn't like big red and purple girls in the first or second family, she dresses so elegantly, it must be to please you. How about you, if you don't even show a smile, you won't be afraid of hurting the child's heart?"

Mrs. Xu hesitated for a while, sighed softly, and then slowly said: "I understand, but every time I see her eyes, I can't help it..." Sister Ming's eyes are similar to those of Lin Lin who died young. Shi is exactly the same, as soon as she sees her, she will think of Lin, and she can't treat her calmly.

Of course Mrs. Lu knew who the last "she" in Mrs. Xu's words was, and she knew better what Mrs. Xu meant when she didn't make it clear.She sneered and said: "Don't you just blame Lin for not taking the initiative to give Wynn a concubine, which led to the accident later, and even more blame Wynn for not discussing with you, because of Lin's death, Xu's family was troubled, hurting It broke the relationship between you and your brother. I can't let go of Wynn, who went to Xin'an for 11 years for sister Ming. "

Seeing that Mrs. Xu pursed her lips and didn't answer, Mrs. Lu almost didn't point her finger on Mrs. Xu's face, "I know, you thought about how your brother dealt with the Xiao family for you when Lord Hou passed away, so you intend to kiss me." Get married and make Xu Wen a daughter-in-law. But your brother ruined the marriage before Wynn got engaged to Lin. Afterwards, Xu Wen's marriage didn't go well, so what does it have to do with Wynn. "

"If you think about it further, Xu Wen couldn't come to be Huaien's concubine. Why did Lin, who was about to give birth, take the risk to frame her without any thought? Why did Xu Wen, who had a bad relationship with Lin, then Will you go to Lin's courtyard alone without any servants?"

"In that case, how dare you guarantee that you can bring up Sister Ming smoothly? Do you guarantee that Sister Ming's insufficiency can be rectified? That will affect her for the rest of her life. Sister Ming must have a Anyway, let alone Wynn, you can't live in your own heart? Look at her now, don't say who would believe that she was born with deficiencies? She was favored by the old genius doctor, how could she The family should not judge her by this high point."

"To put it mildly, her health will not be a problem. Aren't you afraid that when Sister Ming is not sensible, some evil-hearted person will go to Sister Ming's side and gossip to sow the feelings between your grandparents and grandchildren?"

After Mrs. Lu finished speaking, Mrs. Xu just bowed her head and remained silent.Mrs. Lu knew that her old friend was sad when she brought up the past, and sighed softly, "You actually understand what I said in your heart, but you just held back your anger and didn't want to admit it. Just look at Sister Ming's attitude towards you just now. , It's so good to be taught by Wynn, why should you make things difficult for Sister Ming and chill Wynn's heart. "

Mrs. Xu nodded slowly, but the corners of her eyes were still red after all.
