The Bai family is not like other wealthy families. There is no clear distinction between masters and servants.

The master does his "real work" every day, and the servants do housework.

The Bai family was originally a peasant family, and their main business was farming. The Bai family's education method was not to live a life of luxury.

Although the Bai family's children were not deliberately arranged to do any housework, sometimes they still had to do it when their family members couldn't take care of them.

It also allows children to develop a sense of labor, and they are not brought up to be ignorant of the hardships of life and only know how to study hard and practice martial arts.

While eating, Xie Shu'er pricked up her ears and listened carefully to the conversation at the table next to her. The topic the two people were talking about was related to women's appearance, and Xie Shu'er was very interested in it.

It was just a conversation between two adults. Even though Xie Shuer had many questions, she couldn't interrupt and could only listen quietly at the next table.

Seeing how the two were as close as close friends, no matter how slow Bai Qingyun was, he finally realized who the most likely suspect of the "leaker" was.

Bai Qingyun looked at Bai's mother with eyes full of resentment, without concealing it at all.

This is rare. Bai's mother felt a little surprised when she saw her daughter's expression towards her.

Although he didn't know why he attracted such a look from Bai Qingyun, he still smiled gently at Bai Qingyun to comfort him.

Then he continued to say to Madam Su: "But Xiaoer's skin is really good. Looking at her always reminds me of my childhood."

Madam Su glanced at Bai Qingyun without leaving any trace, and continued to say, "Yes, Qingyun looks like you. She will definitely be a famous beauty when she grows up~"

Bai Qingyun felt a chill when he heard Su Niangzi's voice, which was very different from usual. Especially the name she addressed him as, which was completely different from the previous "little girl".

In fact, Bai Qingyun's intuition is not very good.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!

Bai Qingyun's intuition was not wrong. He saw Su Niang praising Bai Qingyun to the skies, which made Bai's mother smile happily.

Seeing that the atmosphere was set, Madam Su acted like an elder, with a look of consideration on her face towards the junior Bai Qingyun.

"As the saying goes, a daughter from one family is sought after by hundreds of families. I think Qingyun's future husband must be very good. He is not worthy of the daughter of the Bai family~"

The smile on Bai's mother's face became even brighter. Hearing others praising her daughter, she felt not only proud but also very comfortable.

In particular, the praises in Su Niangzi's words touched Bai Mu's heart, and she also praised Bai Mu implicitly.

But Bai Qingyun sat aside, his eyelids twitching.

Maybe it was because the smoke of gunpowder was getting thicker around them, but Xie Shuer felt something was wrong and quickly took her bowl and chopsticks to find the three brothers who were washing dishes in the kitchen.

"However, Qingyun has both martial arts and brains, while this woman may not be proficient in everything, but she still needs to learn some basics."

"Otherwise, my husband's family will laugh at me..."

"If you don't learn these, you still have to ask someone to teach you the etiquette for women, so that no one can find fault with you!"

Madam Su held Bai's mother's hand and talked to her one sentence after another. Sometimes she said how difficult the world was for women, and sometimes she said that it was too smart for women to just survive and not study, but they couldn't not study at all.

Among these aristocratic families, those with power and family background all attach great importance to the education of their daughters.

Sometimes, even heavier than men.

If a man cannot read, the worst that can happen is that he will lose a few shops or farms in the future. No matter what, he will not starve to death.

But once a woman gets married, she often cannot decide what kind of life she wants to live.

One's husband, parents-in-law, and sometimes even sisters-in-law and younger sisters-in-law...

Any problem can make you deviate from the track of your life which should be smooth...

Sometimes there is very little that women can do. When they cannot change the external environment, they can only find ways to change themselves.

To mock myself for my lack of manners, I worked hard to learn them; to mock myself for my lack of taste, I invited famous teachers to teach me.

Even the skill of making tea can make you the focus of public opinion.

If you make progress and learn something in the end, and your loved ones give you encouragement, then your learning will be meaningful.

But if the people around you always belittle you, and even your own partner makes sarcastic remarks about you, why don’t you focus on the right path instead of just taking advantage of the occasional opportunity?

That's really exhausting both physically and mentally.

Bai's mother saw all this clearly. She had tried her best to run out because she didn't want to spend the rest of her life in a "cage".

However, he was forced into a desperate situation by Jiang's parents, and he would never have the courage to do so.

Throughout history, there has always been a shortage of smart people!

The women trapped in the houses are deeply influenced by the ideas of women's virtues, and most of them think that such a life is justified.

But in that era, there was a lack of people who were able to "think positively".

There are always a few women who can break away from such thoughts and want to pursue a different life.

But in this era, there is no technology to assist, nor relatively sound security protection. The risk for a woman walking on the street is much greater than the probability of losing money in a casino.

Most of the women who escaped were either kidnapped or sold to brothels...

The success rate of someone like Bai Mu is pitifully low.

Moreover, those men are not stupid. In this information-blocked time, they collected a few real cases of women's failed escapes.

Ask a scholar to write a storybook, and most of the scholars who receive the instructions will sneer at such women.

When rewriting the story, they would even add their own personal agenda. Not only would they glorify the woman in the book, or write her as stupid as a pig, they would even change the ending to be extremely tragic.

Even if women are described as beautiful, comparable to the four great beauties who could make fishes sink to the bottom of their chests, geese fall, and the moon hide in shame on flowers, it is only to set off the male characters in the book.

Then, the man mentioned it in front of those women intentionally or unintentionally.

Those women thought it was some kind of "escape guide" and paid money to learn it, but in the end most of them were discouraged by the plot in the book.

I have to say, this move of killing people without them being seen is used with perfection.

The reason why Bai's mother was able to achieve the good result with Bai's father was due to luck and wit.

Of course, Bai Qingyun felt that Bai's mother was able to accept the gap in life and endure many years of poverty to live with Bai's father.

If you don’t know how to wash clothes or cook, you can learn; if you don’t know how to work in the fields, you can also learn…

Even if the Bai family was dragged down by Bai Qingyun's illness, she would only look for ways to make money to supplement the family expenses. She never thought of abandoning the poverty of the Bai family and living her own life as a lady from a wealthy family.

Even when the Jiang family came knocking on the door, and Bai's mother had many opportunities to return to Kyoto, she did not waver at all.

Bai Qingyun didn't believe it was just because of hatred.

Bai's mother was a soft-hearted person, and the hatred in her heart had long since dissipated.

Compared to hatred, what he feels more in his heart is love for the Bai family.
