"Who knows? But, so what if she is a concubine? What has happened to Miss Su? Miss Su has never said that she is the default crown concubine or anything like that!" A person who looked like
The woman who looked like an official's wife said mockingly.
"That's right! That Miss Leng is really amazing! As the saying goes, people are not judged by their appearance, and this is indeed true! At such a young age, and before she has hair, she is able to seduce men! You really can't be underestimated!"
After hearing this, Su Yu'er couldn't help but want to laugh. When she saw Su Xiyue glare at her, she held it back a little and whispered: "Second sister, it's them who are talking, and they have nothing to do with me!
Isn’t it okay to just smile?”
"Others can laugh, but you can't! Don't forget your identity! Who are you? But the third lady of the Marquis. If people see it now, wouldn't it be another case? How do you know,
Are all these men, women, old and young outside speaking to our Marquis?"
The old lady listened and nodded: "Your second sister is right! It is true! You have to be careful what you say inside the house, let alone outside the house now? Didn't your second sister say that you should never mention this matter again? You
Yeah! I just don’t have any memory!”
As the old lady spoke, she stretched out her hand and tapped Su Yu'er's forehead with some annoyance, "You listened to Master Huihai's Dharma just now in vain!"
Su Yu'er smiled, stuck out her tongue, and said, "Grandma, please forgive me! I don't know anything about Buddhism! My granddaughter almost fell asleep when Master Hui Hai was talking there!"
"You girl!" the old lady scolded her with a smile, and then the two sisters helped her get into the carriage.
When they went back, naturally the two sisters were in the same car again. Su Yu'er took Su Xiyue's arm and said coquettishly: "Second sister, how come you know so much? I didn't expect that such boring Dharma,
You can actually continue to watch? I can't do it! From now on, if grandma has anything to do with chanting sutras and burning incense, you should come with her by yourself! I'll just stay in bed and have a long sleep!"
Su Xiyue heard this and smiled, "You! I ask you to read more books on weekdays, but you don't have to follow me to read them! Whatever you like and what you are interested in, just read the kind of books! If you like it, you can read it.
If you like poetry, read more poems; if you like painting, read more calligraphy and paintings of famous people; if you like miscellaneous notes, read more miscellaneous notes! As for Buddhist scriptures, if you have free time, you still have to read some. Let’s not talk about grandma’s place, it’s you
When you get married in the future, you have to know something about it! Otherwise, wouldn’t you make a fool of yourself on some occasions?”
When Su Yu'er heard this, her face turned red at first, "I don't want to get married! How boring!" After saying this, she was slightly startled again, "Second sister, do you need to understand Buddhist scriptures to get married?"
"You! This Buddhist teaching is profound, but you find it boring! But which old man in this family doesn't like to recite Buddha's scriptures? Even if he doesn't like it, he still needs to learn something."
"Understood. Second sister, you said that Miss Leng has become the crown prince's concubine now, why is she still doing things so randomly? If His Highness the crown prince knew, how could he spare her lightly? I just heard from someone outside.
Those people's words really don't make sense! I'm afraid that His Highness the Crown Prince won't like her as much as before."
"You think too highly of His Highness the Crown Prince! If Leng Yumei is not his cousin or the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Wuchang, why do you think he would be nice to her? What he values is just an identity and the family behind her
It’s just his power! How could he really fancy this person? Therefore, when the eldest sister tried every means to marry into the Prince’s East Palace, her father and grandmother were reluctant in every possible way! This Prince’s East Palace is not an ordinary wealthy family!
If you are not careful, you may lose your life! What’s more important, I’m afraid it will also bring trouble to my parents’ family!”
Su Yu'er nodded, seeming to understand: "But, the prince is the most noble person in the world besides the emperor! Everyone wants to marry him, there is nothing wrong with it? Besides, His Highness the prince is still so handsome!"
"You! You are still too young. The thoughts in your head are naturally a bit naive! Marrying the prince can indeed improve the status of yourself and your family from a certain perspective. But so what? Don't talk about that.
The Prince's East Palace, let's just say the palace. Which year do you not have to go to the palace for one or two banquets? In this harem, except for the mistresses, how often do you meet the beauties next to you, and can you stay popular in this palace for a long time?
Let's end our friendship before we grow old! There are some things that you can't understand even now!"
"The second sister's statement is indeed different from that of Aunt Cao and the eldest sister!" Su Yu'er said in confusion.
"Then tell me, how did Aunt Cao teach you before?"
Su Yu'er hesitated for a moment, but she still put forward some of the ideas that the Cao family had instilled in them in the past about marrying into a high-ranking family, even if it was a concubine, it would be better than a wife from a low-income family. After hearing this, Su Xiyue suddenly realized that it was no wonder that she was like that at the beginning.
Su Lian tried her best to get herself into a high fever and wanted to enter the Prince's East Palace as a concubine, but she didn't want to enter the Wuchang Marquis Mansion as his wife! She had her eyes set above her head, and I'm afraid it was just them.
"Yu'er, forget all those things that Aunt Cao taught you before! What's the benefit of being a concubine? Is it true that good food, good clothing, and good use in a person's life are blessings?
Yu'er, only when a person's heart is comfortable can it be considered truly comfortable!"
"Are you feeling comfortable?" Su Yu'er shook her head, "Second sister, I don't understand!"
"For example, you obviously like to eat lotus seed cake, but someone forces you to eat millet seed cake! Even if the millet seed cake is much more expensive than the lotus seed cake, so what? You will still think the lotus seed cake is delicious,
Isn't it?"
Su Yu'er seemed to understand and nodded, "Is that so? Is this the comfort of the heart?"
"Don't worry! Read more useful books in the future. When you have nothing to do, you can also go to my grandmother's Buddhist temple to read the scriptures. I feel really bored! Even if you are just admiring flowers and scenery, you can learn a lot.
.”
"Second sister, I used to think that as long as I feel well and comfortable, that's the best thing! But these days, as I study and practice calligraphy with my sister, Yu'er suddenly understands a lot! In the past, I just thought of being filial to my grandmother.
It was just to please her and let her favor me and favor me! But now I understand that being filial to my grandmother is what we juniors should do! Moreover, I saw that sometimes my grandmother was really not feeling well.
I will feel anxious in my heart! And when I see my grandma getting better, I will also feel happy from the bottom of my heart!"
