If you are not smart enough but don’t know how to work hard, no wonder you lag behind.
The young masters were so shocked that they were doubting life when they walked out of the study; they used to not feel that their homework was so bad in Beijing! Why did I just stay with my junior sister for half a day, and I have completely realized how bad I am!
The gap between him and his junior sister seemed to be separated by a wide and bottomless ravine.
The eight people walked out of the old man's yard in a hurry, and the old man stood in the pavilion and watched them go away; he turned to talk to the old housekeeper beside him.
"Look, these boys don't know how high the sky is. You know it now; they still need a lesson. If you teach them a few more times, they will know how to struggle. The family fortune I have worked hard for all my life is not just for them to lie down and enjoy the happiness. I am not a girl, It’s okay for my granddaughter to lie down and enjoy the blessing, and I admit it; but for my grandson to enjoy the blessing too, I want to beat him up.”
Liang Bo:.......
"Are you willing to let Miss Sun lie down and enjoy your life?"
The old man's face stiffened. He was disgusted by being asked, "That girl is not a good girl. She was taught a wrong way by her aunt. Fortunately, she is not a legitimate daughter, but a concubine. She can just marry her off with a dowry in the future."
Don't expect your granddaughter to get married, just don't cause chaos in the family.
"That's not what you said just now." Liang Bo said leisurely.
"Hey, you old man, you're still picking on me." The old man said dullly: "Tell me, why is Minghua not my granddaughter? How smart is that child? She looks so much like our family, let Chongzhong She is a girl that Johto is full of praise for! She has a fighting spirit and ambition, and although her behavior is a bit immature, she can still be considered to have a certain amount of progress and retreat."
She is better than my granddaughter who knows where she is.
Uncle Liang was silent for a while and then said, "You just like Miss Xiao."
"Who wouldn't like such a well-behaved doll? If you don't like a cute and sensible one, why would you like an arrogant, domineering and mindless one?" He gets angry when he talks about this. The only girl in the family has been taught to be a loser.
Grandchildren are useless enough, but there is an even more useless granddaughter.
"Tell me, she was cute as a child, but the older she gets, the less lovable she is. Sure enough, I shouldn't have put her under my aunt's name." I regret it.
"Don't think too much about it. In that situation, Aunt Xu kept holding the child and crying. She cried so hard even when someone came close to her. If she was taken away, it would kill her." Uncle Liang was helpless. , Rich families also have the sorrows of rich families!
The old man shook his head and sighed. He didn't talk about his granddaughter anymore, but asked Uncle Liang, "How are the clothes and jewelry customized for Minghua?"
"It's all in rush production."
"You should take more care of Minghua during these days when she lives in the mansion. Pick up food, drink, and clothes and send them over. Don't make Minghua feel uncomfortable."
Uncle Liang: You treat her like your granddaughter, right?
Also, there is an incompetent granddaughter at home, and when he sees a little girl who suits his liking everywhere, or is it the girl who is about to become his disciple and grandson, why shouldn't he feel more pain? As long as Minghua doesn't make any big mistakes in the future and has her husband's support, then everything will be fine.
"Master, don't worry, no one in the house dares to treat Miss Xiao lightly; with you here, they don't have the courage."
"It's too early for you to say this. Didn't you see the second son's family before? You dare to say anything; because he came from the countryside and put on such a posture, you really thought I didn't see him." The children and grandchildren are useless, and they are captured by the capital. Those bad habits have a profound impact. "They deserve to be allowed to stay in a small place for a few years. After the second child and his family go to Xianyun County, say hello to the people below and leave him alone."
"Okay, sir."
...
On the third day, Chief Xu led a group of people to the palace. The old man invited Minghua and her daughter to the living room again. Fan Wei'an was also waiting inside. They were chatting happily, and they stopped after Minghua entered.
"This is Minghua, and next to her is her mother, Mrs. Xiao." Fan Wei'an was responsible for the introduction.
Xu Shoufu looked at Minghua. The little girl was short and small, not like a child in her early sevens; at least, the little daughters in the capital who were in their early seventies had begun to look like girls, so... Rare.
"Minghua, this is the chief minister of the dynasty, Xu Lingjun."
The light in Minghua's eyes fluctuated slightly, but was not intense. She quickly covered it up and bowed, "The student has met Mr. Chief Assistant."
Xiao Leshi was so frightened that she almost knelt down, but when she saw that her daughter did not kneel down, she followed her daughter to greet her.
Xu Shoufu looked at her a few more times and said, "Get up."
"Yes." Minghua straightened up and gave her mother a hand.
Xu Shoufu nodded with satisfaction and said, "He is a good boy. Are you still used to it after coming to the capital?"
"Everything is fine. My husband takes good care of our mother and daughter."
"You can't call me husband anymore. From today on, you have to call me master or master."
Minghua silently filtered out the title of her master and just nodded. If she didn't become a master, everything would be disrespectful. She could call him whatever she wanted.
"Let's see when there will be a discipleship banquet. Let's serve tea today and decide on the status. At the banquet, we will introduce Minghua to everyone. Our lineage has gained another disciple in many years. It's time to celebrate." The old man When he opened his mouth, Xu Shoufu also had this intention.
The empress ascended the throne, and her husband retired behind the scenes, which alleviated the empress's fear; let me ask, for a veteran minister who has all the power in the government and the public, and has a lot of troops, who has the hearts of the people and what the people want in the court, who is not afraid of being in a high position?
The husband is right to choose to avoid his sharpness. It can not only sell well to the empress, but also preserve the wealth of his family and lineage. At least he has no worries about his money future. The empress also wants to sell his face, so he can't use it at the same time. The talents of my husband's lineage are suppressed at the same time.
As long as the old man's lineage doesn't have any objections, just use it.
"Master, I have chosen a good day to hold a banquet at my house in five days. It will be lively and lively." Xu Shoufu said, "I have asked my wife to start the arrangements. I want to bring Minghua and her daughter back to the house first. I will take exams in the past few days." I’m taking Minghua’s homework for the school exam; I’m also close to my family, so when we hold a banquet, you can’t just know me and not the other people, what do you think?”
My husband originally wanted to keep her here for a few more days, but after hearing this, he had to feel relieved.
"I can go to your house, but you can't treat Minghua like one of your grandchildren; you have to take Minghua seriously, or you will send her back to me. Even a teacher can teach." It's just that it's hard to accept more disciples, otherwise, The attention Minghua received after entering the court increased many times.
"Yes, don't worry, Master." Xu Shoufang reluctantly bowed to appease him. What did he do to his grandchildren? Didn’t you hire the best gentleman for them? We’ve taught everything that needs to be done; what else can we do? Wasn't this how he became talented back then?
Old man: Laughing (filial) son.
"I don't know what your grandchildren have grown up to be like. No matter how much you care about them, the Xu family will be defeated by them sooner or later. A good person will not learn as much as others, but he will imitate others' bad habits." Comparison brings happiness.
At least the grandchildren of Duke Weiyuan are not like this.
