Suddenly more than ten days passed. When the winter snow began to clear, the long-awaited Mother Kong finally arrived. It is said that she was originally a descendant of Shandong Confucian Mansion and was promoted to work as a court lady Female official: The emperor has changed several terms in the past few decades, but she has been rotating safely in the position of female official in the Sixth Bureau. A few years ago, the elderly had resigned from the palace and stayed at Rong Enguan in Beijing.

Nowadays, many Gonghou’s mansions or aristocratic families are fashionable to invite some old palace people who have withdrawn from the palace to teach their daughters’ etiquette. Minglan’s understanding is to increase the added value of girls.

This mother has already raised several daughters in the British government, the governing government, and the Xiangyang Hall. They all say that she has a strong temperament and is patient and meticulous when teaching rules, unlike other mothers who do not move. Those who have to be punished and beaten can teach manners and rules in place. The Wang family did not expect that Mrs. Sheng had such a face, she could invite such a high-class maternal, and thanked him several times in Shou'an Tang.

Being able to serve as a female official in the palace for decades without any style problems occurred, Ming Lan estimated that the maternal grandmother was very safe, and it was true after the meeting. Mother Kong was about a few years younger than the old lady. She was thin, her eyes were small, and her nose was not high. She looked very kind with her big pie face. She wore a silver-grey plain brocade twill with fur on the cuffs. On the side, there is only a simple white jade square with oblique Ruyi pattern on his head, and he looks very plain.

She had to pay salute to the old lady according to the old rules in the palace, and was helped by the old lady. They were old acquaintances, so they sat on the kang and chatted together. Such an ordinary-looking person said He speaks like a spring breeze, and every move is generous and smooth, modest and dignified. Sheng Hong and Wang sat beside them with a smile. Hualan's excited little blushes, her hands and feet were cursed, and she didn't dare to say a word. Mo Lan sat elegantly and kept a perfect smile while listening to the two old people talking, Wang Fear that Rulan was ignorant and lost the Sheng family, so she didn't let her come at all.

"Master Sheng is an official and governs the German side. He is also known in Beijing. Nowadays, there are many children and grandchildren, and the young masters and young ladies in the house are like snow trees. The old lady is really blessed." Mother Kong said with a smile.

"I am blessed to be able to invite you, a busy man, to you; my big girl can be handed over to you, what's wrong, you just need to punish you, don't have to be restrained." Old lady Sheng smiled Pointed to Hualan.

"What the old lady said, although I am somewhat decent today, it is only the face given by the nobles. After all, I am just a slave and maid in the palace; in my opinion, the rules are used to show morality, Ethical behavior is not for tossing people; the rules should be learned, but you don’t have to learn by yourself, just use your heart, and where the old lady’s granddaughter can go.” Said the grandmother Kong, she looked at casually. Hualan, Hualan seemed to be motivated, sitting upright, with a straight back and looking forward, as if using body language to express determination.

"It’s really a blessing for the mother to be able to come this time. When she turned back to teach Huaer to be free, she also told us about things in Beijing, so that we, the country folks who have been away all year round, can grow Knowledge." Wang said.

"Quanzhou to Dengzhou, from south to north, the treasures are abundant, the sky is high and the sea is wide. My wife has seen mountains and rivers, and knows the terroir of the north and south. The knowledge should be on the old lady who will never move in my life. "It's gone." Mother Kong smiled modestly, Wang's sweaty pores all over his body were ironed comfortably, and the smile was even more from ear to ear.

The mother Kong spoke very slowly, but it didn’t make people feel procrastinated, and she didn’t talk much, but every sentence was just right for everyone to hear, respectfully and attentively, Ming Lan looked aside I am very impressed. Wang and Hualan originally thought that a stern parenting mother would come, and they were ready to endure hardships. They didn't expect that Mother Kong would be so friendly and kind, and they were more grateful to Mrs. Sheng. Originally, the Wang family had already prepared the house where Mother Kong lived and the servants who had been sent to her, but Mother Kong said in a tactful manner that she wanted to live in Shou'an Hall for the first night, so as to recount the old lady with the old lady.

That night, Mother Kong slept in the warm house of Mrs. Sheng.

"You were willing to come, but I didn't dare to invite you." Mrs. Sheng said.

"I'm really tired of those rich and powerful houses. Everyone has a thousand faces and countless calculations. I have been guessing people's minds all my life, even thinking about them in my dreams. Looking at the intestines of those nobles, I was thinking that I could live a comfortable life for a few days after resigning, but I didn’t even think about it. I simply borrowed your excuses to escape from Beijing, and spent a few days clean; besides, I’m old too. The fallen leaves must return to their roots." Mother Kong changed her calmness and looked exhausted.

"Can you find a place to stay? If it is a useful place, you must find me." The old lady Sheng looked sad.

"No, I'll find it early. I have a distant nephew in my hometown. He has no parents, and I have no children. He lives together well, and as you know, I haven't been alive for a few days. I don't want to be restrained anymore." Mother Kong looked relieved.

The old lady Sheng had a slight pity, and whispered: "It's not easy for you in your life. You were engaged in marriage at the beginning, and the name tag on the palace was clearly your sister's name, but your stepmother took you hard Entering the palace with an impostor will delay your life."

"What's not easy?" Mother Kong smiled openly, "I have experienced more exciting than normal people in my life. Not to mention the ones I have eaten and used, I have met three with the emperor, and the queen has seen five. One, the concubine and noble are even more like a crucian carp who crosses the river, and they are eye-opening! They can live comfortably in their sixties, and there is nothing to complain about; it is my sister who marries, steals, and poisons the concubine's mother-in-law, Being divorced, she has been infamous all her life. My stepmother broke her family for her, and finally fell to death. I was much better than them." Hehe and laughed, "When I heard the news, I drank secretly. A whole bottle of old cellar to celebrate!"

The old lady Sheng smiled and said: "You are still the same, looking respectful, but inside you are unruly."

Mother Kong was slightly sad, and said: "No, how can I survive." Then, she suddenly screamed at the old lady: "It's you, how did you cultivate so much? What was your style back then. Gone?"

The old lady Sheng shook her head and said helplessly: "Hong'er is not my own birth after all, so why bother to be disgusting; besides, I am also lacking. What about the ups and downs of the year, it is not empty."

Grandma Kong sneered: "I think you are going back more and more alive. Don’t think about it. At the time, Queen Jing’an had a harder life than you. Two sons died, two daughters were taken away, and the royal family couldn’t reconcile. What can she do when she leaves? Grandpa Taizong pets her, she is happy, she is left out of her, and she is also happy. How did she say to us back then, "There are too few things a woman has in her life, and she is married. Involuntarily, when you need to find some fun for yourself, be a song to wine, life is geometric'; although she does not live long, but she is happy and enjoyable every day. After the death of Emperor Taizong, he missed every day, and later became sick... …" Mother Kong's voice gradually lowered, and the old lady Sheng also looked distraught, thinking of the free and easy woman who was brazen and proud.

Mother Kong took a long sip and went: "Fortunately, the Emperor Xian finally established her youngest son. After she has stayed, I will listen to her and never take disgusting things to heart. , When you pretend to be stupid, you have to pretend to be stupid, when you should be humble, you should be humble, you should eat, you should enjoy yourself, and you will not waste your whole life. If you were a stubborn person who entered the palace, you would have died eight hundred times! "

Mrs. Sheng recalled her charming youth, she was in a daze, for a while, shaking her head, and turning off the topic: "Okay, don't say anything, how about my house?"

Mother Kong rolled her eyes and said: "It's a mess, there are no rules; the first one with the least rules is you!" She seemed to have been bored in Beijing for a long time, and finally caught a chance to speak freely. Mrs. Sheng couldn't, she had to let She went on.

"Your old grandfather is a person, earning a huge share of the family business. Two of the three sons are also successful. Before he died, he personally divided the family, but it was bad not long after he left. , Your husband and son-in-law have gone too, if it weren’t for you, the grand man, who was a bastard, would have no more bones and scum that was chewed by the black-hearted third uncle. Can this industry survive? You wanted money at the time. At a young age, the courageous old master and his wife are still alive. It is not difficult to marry again. Even though Jinling and Beijing are not to be treated, just find a distant place to live. When a man marries, his son will live his own life. , Isn’t it beautiful? You want to give you that unscrupulous observance, take the concubine under his name, prop up the entire Sheng family, then find him a master, test his fame, marry a wife, have children, and then, you Retreat and shrink to a corner to become the living dead? I don't know what to say!" Mother Kong almost didn't put her finger on Mrs. Sheng's face.

"Although you are not his mother-in-law, you are his aunt, and you are so kind to him. You can straighten up the rocker, what's the scruples? Tell you, the sons are all with blank eyes Wolf, if you marry a wife and forget your mother, if you don’t take yourself seriously, he will be happy to leave you aside! I rule the world with filial piety, if he has the slightest disobedience, he will not want to stay in officialdom! Make your life more comfortable, even if it's not for yourself, you have to do it for your precious little girl." Mother Kong said, making a slap on the end of the pear cupboard.

The spit of the old lady Sheng was sprayed, and it was irrefutable. Finally, there was a topic to talk about, and she hurriedly said: "By the way, how about my Ming girl?"

Grandma Kong turned her face sideways, pondered for a while, and said: "Very good."

Looking at the look of old lady Sheng looking forward, she added a few more words: "The child has good eyes, indifferent, clear, and open-minded. It seems to understand everything, but not clear and cold, but still happy. Yes, be polite and respectful, knowing that it’s better than you if you don’t win the eyes of others; it’s worthy of treating her like your heart.

The old lady Sheng whitened her with a glance: "What kind of heart? I'm just a few granddaughters."

Grandma Kong waved her hand impatiently: "Don't pretend to be garlic for me. It's just a dinner. How many dishes did you add to her bowl? After a while, I would like to say, "Ming, eat more." After a while, she said, "Don't be picky eaters." She stretched out more chopsticks to which dish, and the mother of the room next to you secretly remembered that you thought I was blind! Only when she slept, you put me here for a while. I have to watch her take the medicine and go to bed. I guess I will wait until she falls asleep."

The old lady Sheng Mo Ke Nahe: "The child slept a lot, but he couldn’t sleep well. He had to wake up several times a night. Sometimes he woke up crying in the middle of the night. I know, she was sad but she said Not coming out; tossing at night, during the day there is nothing wrong, still follow me to read and read, sitting obediently and listening to my old lady talking about ancient times; strange to say, she is not as good as the original Aunt Lin, who can write and draw, is not as good as that. Girl Hua is cute and pleasing to make me happy, but I think she is the most caring." She said in a daze.

"That’s because you have grown up, you’ve been wronged for half your life, and finally know that it depends on what is inside. No matter how fancy the outside is, it’s not as important as being honest; it’s also because you have been alone for too long, and now you have a child with you every day. Holding it, I can't help but be careful." Mother Kong said with sharp eyes.

The old lady Sheng pointed to her and cursed: "You old man, this stern mouth, why didn't you die in the palace? Let you come out to harm people."

Grandma Kong stared: "That's natural. Haven't I heard that good people don't live long and do harm for thousands of years?"

Speaking, the two old men laughed together.

After a long laugh, Mrs. Sheng wiped her tears and stretched her neck to look at the pear cupboard. She was held by the grandmother Kong: "Don’t look, I won’t wake your little granddaughter. Didn’t she take a drink? A whole bowl of Soothing Soup? If you wake up, there will be a sound; come back soon, I have something to say to you."

Mrs. Sheng thought about it, so she turned back, and Mother Kong said with a serious face: "I am a citizen of Shandong, and you are the daughter of Jinling. Because of the Queen of Jing'an, getting acquainted with one another is a fate. Some words I want to persuade you."

The old lady Sheng nodded sternly, and Mother Kong said: "I know that you have been wronged for half your life, but your hard work is just a death, because it is so cold that you will not marry again, just keep The Sheng family lives. But I ask you, how many days do you have to live?"

Mother Kong saw that the old lady Sheng looked sad, and then said: “Queen Jing’an said something before her death, and I’ll give it to you today—the so-called planning depends on people and things, and it’s not easy for us to be women. , As long as everything we can do is done, it depends on God’s meaning in the future; parents are not easy to raise, we can not ruin this life in vain, we can live as we should, and one day we will have a good day. You Since there is still a tone of breath, you have to live it well, say when you see the unevenness, scold when you see something wrong, take out your Jinling Xu family lady's shelf, shake up the rules of the house, don't say you can live it by yourself It’s more comfortable, and it can also leave you a good look for the Sheng family’s descendants, isn’t it, do you think this is the reason?"

Old lady Sheng's eyes were red, and she took the kerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes lightly: "It's the old sister, now it's only you who have said this to me, and I will take your old sister;... …I have to survive until Mingya'er comes out."

Mother Kong was very pleased to see her persuasion to succeed: "You can think that way. Six girls are still young, and you will have to rely on you in the future. Don't ask her to be rich and expensive, but to find a good person smoothly Up."
