Xie Caibo raised his hands to thank his relatives and friends again and again, feeling very proud. Amidst the compliments from his relatives and friends, Xie Caibo forgot about himself and even composed an impromptu poem.
"In the dynasty, I have my heart and my heart, and I am not afraid of the king's rebuke. I only pretend to have plans for the country, and I am thinking about the world. I have no intention of becoming a prince and worshiping the prime minister. It is a young man's ambition. If he is a guest in the hall again today, he will still be honored by the court."
"
"A good poem. The artistic conception of this poem is beautiful and immersive. It will be passed down through the ages."
"Wonderful, wonderful, this poem is intoxicating, and God's intention is there. It is really a masterpiece that is rare to see in a hundred years.,,,
A limerick attracted praise from everyone, and Xie Caibo was even more proud of it.
However, when everyone was praising him, their eyes were always looking at the carriage behind him, intentionally or unintentionally, hoping to see Xie Daoqing and look familiar to him.
At this time, Xie Daoqing did not come out of the carriage behind him. He always maintained the reserve of his little daughter and rarely saw outsiders.
That night, Xie Caibo was invited by his relatives and friends to have a feast at the largest restaurant in Lin'an.
Because of Xie Daoqing, Xie Caibo naturally became the focus of everyone's pursuit. Everyone hoped to get into his relationship so that they could have a prosperous official career in the future.
At least we have established a good relationship so that if something happens, we will have a place to cry out and beg for help.
With everyone in such a state of mind, Xie Caibo also had a lot of promises after the meal. Many relatives and friends, after toasting, hoped that he could help connect people and find a job for themselves.
Xie Caibo pissed himself off three times, but there was no limit to it, so he agreed to it one by one.
At this time, Xie Daoqing was embroidering a pair of bright red and festive embroidered shoes in the boudoir.
Similar to the embroidered shoes, there are also hikerchiefs, quilts, and clothes, all in bright red, which makes people happy and happy.
In ancient times, women paid great attention to their female virtues. Before getting married, they had already developed a pair of very dexterous hands. Almost all the knitted embroidery needed at the wedding was made by the bride.
Although he was married to the emperor Zhao Yun, Xie Daoqing did not need to personally handle these matters, but Xie Daoqing was still very happy. Every day when he had nothing to do, he would embroider these female needlework, enjoy it, and be intoxicated.
Every stitch and thread is my own intention, and the meaning is naturally different.
The next day, Xie Daoqing was called by his uncle Xie Caibo.
When they arrived at the living room, Xie Caibo said: "Son, in a few days, you will get married to the official family. From now on, you will be the mother-in-law. The Xie family is your natal family, so you have to take more care of me."
Xie Daoqing nodded and said: "Uncle, don't worry, my niece is a member of the Xie family after all. If the Xie family needs to take care of anything, my niece happens to be able to help. I will do my duty and I will never let my uncle down."
Xie Caibo was very excited after hearing this. He said excitedly: "Your younger brothers are now officials in the state and county, and their relationship with the envoys of the state is not very harmonious. After you enter the palace, you will report to the officials if you have nothing to do."
Ti, if we can get them to join the ranks and go to the ministry hall, they will have a better future."
Xie Daoqing is smart and knows the importance of things. She knows that Xie Caibo is trying this. This time he will help a few brothers, the next time he will help a few relatives, and the next time it will be to help old friends. There is no end.
Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that these things are beyond your control.
Interfering in political affairs in the harem has always been a taboo in the dynasty!
Xie Daoqing said: "My brothers are all smart and quick-thinking people. Now they are working in prefectures and counties, which is also a lot of hard work. If they have outstanding abilities, they will be rewarded by the court in the future. If they are not capable, then it will be harmful to enter the six departments and be close to the center.
them?"
After saying that, Xie Daoqing looked at Xie Caibo seriously, with a serious look on his face, and said: "Uncle, men should only get wealth and honor from the middle, how can women beg for it? Some things cannot be interfered with. Interfering does not help them, but harms them.
them."
After saying that, Xie Daoqing stood up, gave a curtsey, then turned and left.
Xie Caibo called Xie Daoqing from behind several times, but Xie Daoqing ignored him and left directly.
The home of another beauty, Yan Yuee, was also decorated with lights and colorful and busy.
Everyone in the Yan family was very excited, and they were all waiting for Yan Yue'e to be sent to the palace on the wedding day. From then on, they had someone to rely on.
Yan Yue'e is a well-educated and courteous woman with a gentle personality. She is a very traditional woman. She has been shyly hiding in her room these days, not daring to see anyone.
That night, Yama's father and mother called her out of the room, had a long talk with her, and gave her careful advice.
Yan's father said to Yan Yue'e: "As soon as you enter the palace gate and become an official woman, you must always remember the virtues of women, be virtuous, courteous, and be humble to others. Don't insult me."
The family tradition of the Yan family.
In the future, there will be many concubines and beauties in the official family. Don't be jealous. You must know that there are times in your life that you must have, but there is no time in your life. Don't force it. Don't imitate the intrigues of those women in history."
Yan Yuee nodded and said seriously: "Yes, father, my daughter knows."
Father Yan added: "And from the day you get married, you can only live for the official family in your life. You must remember that the official family is your heaven. No matter what, you must serve him.
OK, don't make him angry.
Don't worry about your mother's family. Don't think about what benefits it will bring to your mother's family. No need. I have a scholarly family in Yan Mansion and a family of poems and books. Even if I only have a few books left, I can live a lifetime. The glory and wealth are all fleeting.
, a family that is peaceful, harmonious, and beautiful is true.
Countless women in the past dynasties have been beaten to death, executed, or driven out of their homes because they said a wrong word or did a wrong thing and made their husband's family unhappy. Children, you must remember this.
Live in a deep house and be cautious in your words and deeds.
When entering the palace, the first taboo is to avoid jealousy and intrigue. The second taboo is to be ambitious and greedy for power. The third taboo is to avoid losing female virtue and becoming unseemly. As long as you don't violate these three taboos, you can live peacefully in the palace and live a happy life.
"
Yan Yuee'e felt her heart pounding when she heard this. Why was this different from what she had dreamed of? If a husband and wife said the wrong thing or did the wrong thing, they might face execution?
It's scary to think about it.
Yan Yue'e thought about the cruel battles in the harems of past dynasties, and she became even more flustered and showed fear.
Seeing his daughter's worry, Father Yan added: "You don't have to worry too much. As long as you do your duty well, you will have a worry-free life. Officials are kind and they are not the kind of monarchs who punish people at will. If something happens to you, you will
Don't rush to do it, ask your father more. In the future, if your father is gone, you can also ask your brother. Remember, the Yan family will always be your support."
