The road to becoming a god through the Red Mansions

Chapter 130 Abandoned Crown Princess

After discussing with Situ Yao, the Xie family began to plan to establish a Baigong school and an embroidery workshop in Gyeonggi.

It's just that this matter involves a lot, and there are many trivial matters to be dealt with. It is not enough to rely on her alone, so Xie plans to conduct a selection first.In this selection, all the female family members were selected, and the candidates were all well-known and talented women. Those who have only read a few books about women's precepts and know a few words are not in the scope of Xie's selection. Inside.

When the news came out, the entire capital of Kyoto was shaken.After all, if it is said that female history is selected, it must be an unmarried woman, but the scope of the Xie family is very wide, and any outstanding woman can participate, regardless of age.Everyone couldn't figure out Mrs. Xie's mind, so they had to focus on Mrs. Xie and Grandma Xie's family. There was an endless stream of wives who came to visit Xie's mansion, which disturbed Mrs. Xie's headache, so she had to go into the palace to inquire about the news.

Mrs. Xie handed over the letter of greeting, and Mrs. Xie naturally agreed immediately.In the early morning of the second day, Qingyun was waiting at the gate of Fengyi Palace. Mrs. Xie was a considerate lady, and specially brought Qingyun's mother into the palace so that their mother and daughter could meet and talk.

"My wife and grandma have finally arrived. Master has been waiting since before dawn. I'm sure I'll be happy to see you later." Seeing her own mother, Qingyun was also very happy from the bottom of her heart.It's just that he didn't dare to mess around in front of the rules, he only took a few glances, and then hurriedly saluted Mrs. Xie and Grandma Xie's family and said hello.

In order to avoid suspicion, Mrs. Xie rarely enters the palace on weekdays. It has been a long time since she has seen Mrs. Xie, and she still misses her daughter from the bottom of her heart.Seeing Qingyun waiting at the gate of the palace early, Xie felt a little satisfied: "It's hard for you to wait here so early in the morning. I thought you might not see Nanny Wu for a long time, so I brought her into the palace specially. It also allows you mother and daughter to talk for a while."

"Thank you Madam for thinking about your servants, let's go in quickly, the master must be waiting." Qing Yun replied with a smile, turned around and led Madam Xie and Grandma Xie into Fengyi Palace.

Just as the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Xie family were about to greet each other, they were stopped by Mrs. Xie's voice: "Mother and sister-in-law don't need to be too polite, they are close relatives of the whole family, just get along as ordinary family members."

But Mrs. Xie insisted on giving a full salute: "Your Majesty, don't say that, you must know that etiquette cannot be discarded. Now that the minister's wife is rude when she sees the Empress, there is no guarantee that others will not despise you in the future. You can only do a salute, and it will take a lot of money." No matter how much effort you put in.”

Hearing this, Mrs. Xie had no choice but to accept this gift, and hurriedly gave her a seat, and ordered people to serve some snacks, fruits and tea, all of which were the best.Seeing the exquisite color of Fengyi Palace and the rare and rare objects in the display utensils, Mrs. Xie let go of a little worry in her heart, and the smile on her face became more genuine.

"You don't need to wait here, we can talk freely, let's all go down first. Qingyun and Madam Wu also went out to rest, if there is something to do, I will call you in again." Mrs. Xie ordered a few words lightly, waved back The palace people who served in the palace.

After everyone had dispersed, Mrs. Xie smiled and said: "Your Majesty is very dignified now, she looks much more stable than before, but it doesn't worry us at home."

Xie said with a smile: "It's just putting on a posture and fooling people. I have to do this every day in my daily life, and I'm exhausted."

"Bah, bah, you can't say such unlucky words!" Mrs. Xie was in a hurry, and gave Mrs. Xie a slightly reproachful look, "Just now you praised you for being stable, why did you say weird things about this kid?"

"Your Majesty is suddenly happy to see your mother, why don't you just relax a little bit," Grandma Xie hurriedly began to talk, in case Mrs. Xie continued to talk and offended the Empress Empress, "Didn't Mother even make an inner coat for your mother?" , It took half a month of hard work, and the fine needlework can be called a skillful workmanship."

Mrs. Xie wasn't angry at all, it's just that she was used to talking easily with Situ Yao in the past, and suddenly exposed her true nature in front of Mrs. Xie.Seeing Grandma Xie's rescue, she took the opportunity to pick up the conversation: "Mother is busy with housework, why do you still do these menial tasks? Am I still missing clothes? Needlework is useless and hurts eyes. I can do it again in the future." Stop doing this."

"It's not worth anything, but it's nothing more than a few stitches when you have free time. Besides, your sister-in-law is helping you with family affairs. Now my wife is only idle for fun every day, but she is very bored." Mrs. Xie also went down the donkey, Skip that topic and stop talking about it.

The mother and daughter chatted for a while, and Mrs. Xie brought up the business: "Since the mother said that she wanted to choose, the threshold of our house has been trampled by everyone, and people who come to inquire from morning till night have never stopped. It's just that the minister I don't understand it in my heart, so I want to ask the empress to clarify the confusion, so that everyone can feel at ease."

"It's not my fault, because some time ago, Your Majesty and I had a dream. I dreamed that the late emperor and the late queen mother gave us an excuse, saying that now the Dagan Kingdom is booming, but there are still many people who don't have to worry about food and clothing. , They were very uneasy in their hearts, thinking about building some handicraft workshops in the Gyeonggi area, and taking in the children of common people's families for free to learn some crafts."

Mrs. Xie laid out the rhetoric that she had thought up a long time ago: "Your Majesty is already taking care of everything, and these things cost a lot of money. Let the six officials do it alone. Not to mention delaying the important affairs of the court, there is no such a lot of money in the treasury. But the late emperor Rende, Tete said to use the private treasury left by his old man, I thought I would be idle all day, so I took this matter over."

Grandma Xie's family was also a well-known lady in the past. Hearing this, she understood Xie's intentions, and said with a smile: "This is a good thing that will last forever. The palace still needs to take care of palace affairs, so there may be incompleteness, so I said to choose. The criteria for the selection of strange ways are different from those in previous years, so the purpose is also different."

"Sister-in-law is smart, precisely because I can't get out of the palace easily. I also thought that many little sisters in the past were all people with high chests. Although most of them are now married women, they just drink tea and arrange flowers all day long, which is a waste of money." After seeing their talents, I thought of taking advantage of this to give everyone a chance to show their talents."

The sister-in-law and the sister-in-law talked enthusiastically, but Mrs. Xie showed hesitation: "Your Majesty is thinking well, but the world is unpredictable. Who knows what ugly things those pedantic people will say?"

In today's world, there is a lot of restraint on women. Women from aristocratic families usually don't even come out of the second sect.Now that Mrs. Xie suddenly mentioned this, it is hard to guarantee that there will not be those defenders and old scholars who say inexplicable things under the banner of three obediences and four virtues.

But Mrs. Xie didn't care, she was the queen, and she had Situ Yao's full support behind her, so she was already superior.Besides, she didn't talk nonsense, the girls she used to get along with very well all had shrewd abilities that were not inferior to men, but they could only marry as wives due to the circumstances of the world.Now that she has thrown bricks and stones to attract jade, many people will definitely come in response, and the power behind them should not be underestimated.

"Mother's thinking is reasonable, but after all, this matter was requested by the spirits of the late emperor and late empress in heaven. As human beings and children, we can only obey. One more thing, I only pay for the lead, and the rest will naturally be taken care of by the servants of the palace. If it doesn’t work, do you still want me to teach in the school myself?” Mrs. Xie knew that there must be resistance, so she didn’t plan to confront those defenders from the beginning, just doing an ordinary charity thing.

"That's okay, since this is the case, the minister's wife and your sister-in-law should register first. Madam, let's talk about what these collection workshops teach, and the minister's wife has a deep understanding in her heart."

Since Mrs. Xie asked, Xie explained to her in detail: "It's not difficult to teach, it's just some crafts that ordinary people can use. Such as white table snacks, iron building kang, tailoring and embroidery, spinning and so on. Yarn weaving, raising fish and killing pigs, etc.

"One more thing, many people just bury their heads in farming, but when I read "Qi Min Yao Shu" when I was young, I knew that there are many skills in farming, and I can know the signs of pests from the slightest. If someone puts these With the promotion of technology, even if the people of our Dagan country cannot have a bumper harvest every year, our grain production will definitely increase steadily, and more people will always be able to eat and wear warmly."

Looking at Mrs. Xie who was talking eloquently, Mrs. Xie didn't do much, but Grandma Xie's family suddenly felt a sense of pride from the bottom of her heart.Grandma Xie, who was originally one of the most beautiful ladies in Beijing, never felt that she was any weaker than men, but she could only care for her husband and teach her children, wasting her life in the affairs of the back house.It seems that relying on her husband and son to obtain a royal order is the greatest honor in her life.

But now she has seen another way of life. There may be countless difficulties and obstacles along the way, but the road ahead is bright and splendid, which makes people happy: "If it is true as what your mother said, my wife is willing to be like a dog and a horse for your mother." labor."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and there was some spiritual resonance at this moment.Seeing her daughter and daughter-in-law doing the same, Mrs. Xie sighed with a smile, "You are young after all. With so much energy and courage, I, an old woman, can only do logistics for you, so that you don't have to worry about the future."

But Mrs. Xie thought for a while and said: "There is one more thing, I want to ask my mother what she means. Your younger brother Yun is now in his twenties, but he still hangs around in the military camp all day long. He hasn't been home for two years now, but Zensheng is good? My wife wants to find a marriage for him, but he is a bully, if one is not good, he will become a resentful spouse, isn't it not beautiful?"

The original owner has a deep relationship with this twin brother, so Mrs. Xie has naturally thought about it. When Mrs. Xie asked, she also expressed her opinion: "It is true that the one in the cloud has reached the age for marriage, but it is only because of me. I was delayed. Everything is fine in the palace, and now I don't need him to fight tremblingly on the battlefield to earn face for me."

Mrs. Xie frowned and said, "I've told him so many times, but he's got into a dead end. No matter what we say, we won't listen."

"You wrote to ask him to come back, just saying that I have important things to do now, and I need to entrust him to do it, and no one else can do it." Mrs. Xie came up with an idea, "Let's fool him back first, and then talk about other things. Now The mountains are high and the roads are far away, so nothing we can say will work, and when he returns to the capital, I will naturally have a way to deal with him."

Mrs. Xie was relieved after hearing this, and nodded her head in agreement.
