[Red House] The Twins of Purple Pearls

In the school, Mrs. Jiang talked for the first time about how women should behave in the world.

Mrs. Jiang was shaking her feather fan and sitting behind the desk, looking like Mr. Zhuge planning strategies; the ice in the ice mirror gradually melted, spreading the coolness, and the heat in the room had completely dissipated.

"Do you know what a good girl is?" Mrs. Jiang asked Yan.

"The peach blossoms are bright, and the flowers are shining. When the son returns home, he is suitable for his family." Liu Ning'an replied seriously, "A good girl should be a woman who is suitable for the family."

Daiyu thought for a while and said: "There is a saying in "Beifeng Yanyan", that it is a woman's virtue to be gentle and kind in the end, and to be careful about her body."

Mrs. Jiang nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "Since ancient times, a good woman is matched with a good son-in-law; a gentleman should obtain fame and make meritorious deeds, and a woman can educate her children by managing the inner house, so that the husband and wife can live in harmony and the family can prosper. Marriage is more important than marriage. The surname is good, and it fits the friendship between Qin and Jin." After a pause, Miss Jiang continued, "In the humble opinion of the world, a woman's life is just a woman at home, a wife when she gets married, and a mother with children; in fact, there is no difference between a woman and a man. It’s different, being a subject of the king, being the people of the country, being responsible for the heaven, and being responsible for the world. It’s really rare for a woman to leave her name in history, but it’s a great honor, and they should be the models you yearn for.”

Hearing Madam Jiang's words, Yanyu suddenly felt that she had misunderstood Madam Jiang deeply in the past; she thought Madam Jiang was just a virtuous woman who followed the rules, but she did not expect Madam Jiang to have such a broad mind.

In fact, the reactions of the girls were similar, even Li Wen never thought that his mother would say such a thing.

After the surprise passed, they obviously relaxed a little, and they were obviously very interested in Jiang Niangzi's words.

Looking at the legends of heroes and beauties in the storybook, some people want to meet a hero and make a good story, and some people want to become a great hero.

Jiang Shi asked Mrs. Jiang: "Auntie, which senior woman do you like?"

But when she heard this, Mrs. Jiang's eyes dimmed a bit, and she still smiled lightly: "Mrs. Feng Shi, a daughter of the Han family, married Princess Jieyou to Wusun country. Mrs. Feng is knowledgeable, courageous and knowledgeable. For the world's strange woman."

They have more or less read some ancient books, and have heard about Mrs. Feng Shi's deeds.

What Mrs. Jiang wanted was to leave her name in history as a woman like Mrs. Feng Shi, but she had no choice but to be a good wife and mother in the back house.

"Sir, since ancient times there has been one and only Mrs. Feng, and more women who married far away died in foreign countries." Daiyu said.

"Who's son or daughter would like to bid farewell to their parents, and go thousands of miles away and never see each other again." Li Wen was also deeply moved, and sighed.

"You are still young, you don't know how difficult this world is, and how much you can't help yourself." Mrs. Jiang looked at them with compassion and said softly.

Xue Luo penned the pen and thought about it before writing anything down.

Sitting behind her, Yanyu happened to see that she was writing Du Fu's poem "Yong Huai Ancient Site".

Qunshan Wanhe went to Jingmen, where he had a village where his concubine grew up.

As soon as I went to Zitai and Lianshuomo, I left the Qingzhong to dusk alone.

Draw a picture to understand the spring breeze, and return to the night moon soul around the sky.

Thousands of years of pipa composing nonsense, clearly described in the song of resentment.

Zeng Yanyu liked this poem very much, and also felt sad for Zhaojun's fate.

In the last few days, Mrs. Jiang has been teaching them the various aspects of life and teaching them the principles of life.

In the scorching summer, the girls would eat ice bowls on the porch after class and talk about interesting things.

Suddenly, a woman in half-worn brown clothes hurried in and bumped into Mama Wan who was beside Mrs. Jiang. guilty!"

"Mother Wan, the wife of the magistrate of Anyang came back from offering incense and was passing by. She wanted to visit the fourth wife." The mother-in-law said to Mother Wan.

"The wife of the prefect of Anyang?" Wan's mother thought for a while, and then said to report to the wife.

The wife of the prefect of Anyang, Mrs. Yang, is the daughter of the late Jingying Jiedu Envoy Yang Gong. Her mother is the sister of Prince Xianzhongyi. Husband and wife are loving and envious of others.But now that Mr. Yang is dead, her natal family has no capable brothers to support her, and her uncle's family, Prince Zhongyi's mansion, has also fallen due to being involved in power struggles; Mrs. Yang has been working with her husband in Anyang, and has not returned to Beijing for many years.

Mrs. Jiang had a teacher-student relationship with Yang when she was a female teacher in the palace, and she was happy to hear that Yang came.

The girls were all very curious about the students Mrs. Jiang taught in the palace in the past. Li Wen sat on the porch and made embroidery with Xue Luo calmly, and saw them hiding outside the window like thieves. I hate iron but not steel.

Sitting beside Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. Yang lowered her head and talked with Mrs. Jiang; she looked thin and not as beautiful as the rumors said.

Seeing Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. Yang also felt a little cowardly, and couldn't help crying.Mrs. Jiang caressed Yang sympathetically, and asked her if she was being bullied?Yang's mother family has been scattered, and even if they are wronged, they have nowhere to go, which is really pitiful.

Yang was taken aback for a moment, and when she looked up again, her face was covered with tears. She held onto Mrs. Jiang's hand tightly and almost begged, "Teacher, please help me! Otherwise, I will lose my life!"

"Tell me slowly, what's going on?" Mrs. Jiang felt pity for her when she saw her like this.

"Cheng Xing, the one who killed a thousand swords, he wants to divorce me." Sobbing in a low voice, Mrs. Yang leaned on Mrs. Jiang's shoulder and said tremblingly, "I bore children for him and served my parents; he actually, He even accused me of disrespecting my parents-in-law, being jealous of my concubine, and killing his heir."

Mrs. Jiang is clear about Yang's temperament. If she is said to be jealous of her concubine, she may have it, but she will never disrespect her in-laws and murder her children.I'm afraid that the prefect of Anyang bullied the decline of Yang's mother clan, and now that she has lost her color, he will divorce his wife and remarry.

Sure enough, I heard Yang say: "Cheng Xing has not made an official career for many years, so he said it was because my natal family was related to Prince Zhongyi, and he was too tired to be reused; after my son died, he even said that I killed the child. , so that his concubine in the backyard will have nothing to do. How can I not know his thoughts; the girl of Feng Dusi's family is guarding the widow, and he still wants to climb up to Feng Dusi's in-laws, so he will abandon me .”

Mrs. Jiang was full of emotion. Sure enough, the prefect of Anyang is a hypocrite full of benevolence and righteousness!When the Yang family was prosperous back then, Cheng Xing said all the best when he came to welcome the relatives, but now he immediately turned his face and refused to recognize anyone.

It's just that it's the Cheng family's business after all, and she can't say much as an outsider, unless it's a member of the Yang family who is willing to come and reason for the Yang family.

"Son, it's really hard for you!" Mrs. Jiang sighed and comforted her, and then asked Mama Wan to take Mrs. Yang to rest.

Looking at the few shadows swaying outside the screen window, Mrs. Jiang frowned slightly, and then raised her voice: "Don't worry about wandering outside, come in."

The few girls who were surprised to be discovered came in obediently, and they all stood in front of Mrs. Jiang with their heads lowered with guilt.

"I once taught you, don't look at evil, don't listen to evil, what are you all doing?" Mrs. Jiang glanced at them sharply, seeing that they all lowered their heads and dared not speak, "Go back and copy the etiquette a hundred times. through."

The girls rushed to respond as if they were pardoned.

After they left, Mrs. Jiang asked the servant girl to come in to serve the pen and ink. After writing the letter, she folded it carefully and sealed it in an envelope, and asked the servant girl to hand it over to the young man and send it to the fourth master.

"Madam, is this really possible?" Mother Wan came in and asked worriedly.

"After all, Mrs. Cheng and I are teachers and students. Now that she begs me, how can I stand by and watch?" Mrs. Jiang sighed.

"Mrs. Cheng is also unlucky, so this kind of thing happened." Mother Wan comforted Miss Jiang when she saw how sad she was.

Mrs. Jiang looked out of the window, just in time to see Li Wen who had turned back to pick up the embroidered handkerchief, and Mama Wan followed her eyes to look at it and said, "I think Madam is worried about the girls?"

Mrs. Jiang nodded: "I watched the children grow up, and now they have reached the age to discuss marriage. If my daughter marries the wrong man, her life will be over." After all, she is also a parent. Can't see these things.

Now the girls are seriously copying the scriptures in the school in the front yard. Since Mrs. Jiang is not around, it's okay to whisper to each other occasionally.

Li Qi followed Jiang Shi like a little tail. After copying it more than a dozen times, she put down the pen and moved the futon to Jiang Shi's side. Hand in the scriptures, if you can’t finish copying, you will be beaten again.”

"I'd rather be spanked." Li Qi muttered, rubbing her sore right hand.

"Nurse is scared of Qi'er. Every time she is spanked, Qi'er can cry for three days." Daiyu didn't hesitate to tease her.

Li Qi drooped her head aggrievedly: "Sister Yu, isn't that what you mean by going around the beam for three days?"

Li Shu covered his lips and sneered: "Sister Yu is praising you! Mama Wan said that Fourth Sister cries in a clear rhythm, which is different from others."

After thinking about it, Li Qi pouted and turned her head away without speaking.

Xue Luo put away the scriptures they had copied and put them together, just in time to hear Yanyu and Yu Ming whispering about Yang's matter; just now they had vaguely heard Jiang's Yang's conversation on the porch outside the house, It was the first time the girls raised in the boudoir heard such a terrible thing, and all of them turned pale with fright.

At that time, Yanyu was still thinking in her heart, if she really said that the human heart is sinister and the world is impermanent, maybe it will leave a psychological shadow on these young and ignorant girls in the future.

"Okay, don't just talk, copy the scriptures carefully." Xue Luo tapped on the book case lightly.

The girls picked up the pens and paper and continued to copy. Xue Luo lowered his eyes slightly when he turned around, frowning as if in deep thought.

At this moment, Xue Luo's maid, Lu Ru, hurried in and walked to Xue Luo's side: "Girl, the Fourth Wife is looking for you, it seems that there is a letter from the house."

Xue Luo was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and went with Lu Ru.
