"When their business starts, they have money, and they wear silk clothes, they will have rules and etiquette." Mrs. Shi's tone was calm.
"Sigh." Mrs. Pan Jiu looked very discouraged and turned to Li Xiaonan, "I don't like to be silent while eating. I like to eat in restaurants and sit in the lobby. Even if I can't speak, I can still listen to what others say."
"I don't like it either. When our family has money in the future, we won't follow the rule of eating and talking." Li Xiaonan said with a smile.
Mrs. Shi, who was about to serve tea, paused for a moment, then picked up the tea and looked at Li Xiaonan.
"Eating without speaking is not a rule of any family, it is the rule of everyone." Madam Wei Si calmly smoothed things over.
"My brother went to banquets, cultural gatherings, and dinners with his classmates. It was very lively." Li Xiaonan continued.
"Yes! When my mother-in-law and I went to the banquet, we talked while eating and even toasted!" Mrs. Pan Jiu clapped her hands and laughed.
"When going out to socialize, the emphasis is on socializing, not on eating. When eating, the emphasis is on eating. Talking while eating, the mind cannot be focused on eating. When talking, laughing, and talking, the breath will be dispersed, and the food will also be dispersed, so it cannot be used to nourish the body.
." Mrs. Shi whispered slowly.
"That's it, eating without speaking is not for etiquette and rules, it is a way to maintain health." Mrs. Wei Si smiled hurriedly, "In addition to eating without speaking, each family also has its own way of maintaining health.
"For example, in our family, we are not allowed to drink green tea for a month before and after the winter solstice. It is said that the cold is so strong that we cannot bear the coldness of green tea.
"For example, in the eldest lady's house, you must wear cotton socks when sleeping. Each family has its own rules."
"The eldest lady's younger brother Liang Geer didn't like to wear socks to sleep, so the eldest lady asked someone to sew the socks and trousers together, and then sew the pants and shirt together. Later Liang Geer changed it," Pan Jiu Niangzi answered with a smile.
Tao.
"Brother Liang is so pitiful." Li Xiaonan sighed sympathetically.
Mrs. Shi's upper body was slightly straight. Mrs. Wei Si was surprised at first, and then a little embarrassed. Just as she was about to find a way out, Li Xiaonan leaned forward, looked at Mrs. Shi, then looked at Mrs. Wei Si, and asked seriously: "What about you guys?"
Do people from two families live longer than other family members? Does everyone live longer than other family members?"
Mrs. Wei Si and Mrs. Shi were stunned together.
"Did your family drink green tea and sleep barefoot during the twelfth lunar month? Did they fall ill after drinking green tea and going barefoot? Their health is not as good as the rest of your family? They deserve to live.
Is it shorter than other people in your family?" Li Xiaonan then asked.
Mrs. Pan Jiu blinked her eyes several times, then burst into laughter and pointed at Mrs. Shi, "My dear cousin, I am eighty this year. He sleeps barefoot and scolds anyone who advises him to wear socks."
, I’m so full of energy.”
Mrs. Wei Si also wanted to laugh, but looking at Mrs. Shi's pale face, she hurriedly held it back and quickly smoothed things over: "It's just rules. People's lifespan is determined by their destiny. Miss Li is too serious."
"These rules are for maintaining health, and they are also for restraining temperament and restraining nature. The reason why people are human is because they know etiquette, observe etiquette, and have rules." Mrs. Shi looked directly at Li Xiaonan.
"Controll your temper and restrain your nature. There are laws and scriptures. If you are restrained to the point where you can't even decide whether to wear socks when sleeping, then what's the point of living? Is it a big deal whether to wear socks or not? The nature must be restrained to this extent.
Is this the right situation?" Li Xiaonan was not polite.
Madam Wei Si still wanted to maneuver around and opened her mouth, but no words came out.
"This is the rule of our historian family. If his surname is Shi, he must abide by it." Mrs. Shi straightened her back.
"Then when did the rules of your historian's family come into being? Have they been around since the surname Shi came into being? Are these rules of your historian's family valid within your family's residence, or do you have to abide by these rules of your historian's family no matter where you are as long as you have the surname Shi?
?
"Do people who come to your historian's house have to wear socks before sleeping?
"You historians are visiting other people's homes. For example, if you are here, what are the rules here? If there is no rule about wearing socks to bed, do you wear socks to sleep?" Li Xiaonan asked a series of questions.
Madam Wei Si raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and Madam Pan Jiu's eyes widened.
Mrs. Shi pursed her lips tightly and looked directly at Li Xiaonan.
"You sewed up your brother's clothes. Your brother must have cried pitifully and made a fuss. He might have cried so much that he would have gotten sick. If he got sick, would you still have to sew it up? What are you doing?
Do you want to keep him healthy?" Li Xiaonan then asked.
Mrs. Shi’s face was ashen.
"Miss Li, you said that you must go back and read before the end of the afternoon!" Wan Qing couldn't help it anymore. She gritted her teeth and tried her best to say this sentence respectfully and without emotion.
"Yes, yes. Goodbye, thank you." Li Xiaonan left quickly.
After entering the library, Wan Qing wailed, "You can't stop saying a few words! Didn't you see Miss Shi's face? What are her family's rules and regulations that have anything to do with you?"
"I just think her brother is so pitiful." Li Xiaonan shrank her neck, muttered, and reached out to pick up the book she had read half of this morning, "I'm reading, please stop talking, or you will copy the wrong numbers!"<
/p>
Wan Qing put her hands on her hips and looked at Li Xiaonan, who was covering her head with one hand and burying her head in the booklet. She was so angry that she kept breathing heavily.
This damn girl dared to offend Miss Shi. She really didn’t know the seriousness of it!
Alas, she would have to find Shi Gun as soon as the prince came back. Alas, it would be useless to look for Shi Gun, and Shi Gun definitely didn't have any good ideas.
Oh, this damn girl!
………………………………
Gu Yan returned to his home very late and entered his courtyard. The housekeeper on duty in the library came in and reported the meal in the water pavilion.
Gu Yanping retired from the housekeeper's wife, immediately beckoned to Shi Gun, and ordered: "Go and ask Miss Shi how she is."
Shi Gun agreed and came back to report not long after: "It was said that Mrs. Shi went back after Miss Li left. When she walked to Liuyuan Pavilion, she said she was tired and wanted to be alone. Jiu Niangzi went to find her.
The second wife and cousin were worried and kept looking behind the Taihu stone.
"The second wife went to the temple in the afternoon to fulfill her vows, and the ninth lady came back and watched with her cousin. She said that the eldest lady had been sitting there for more than an hour before she stood up and walked back.
"My cousin sent for a doctor. This is a case report. The doctor said that the lady suffered from cold and was mentally unstable. She prescribed a prescription, took the medicine, and fell asleep."
"If Wan Qing comes to see you, report it to me immediately." Gu Yan ordered.
The stone roll and the bowed head should be.
The prince had predicted this again. Just when he went out to find someone to inquire, he bumped into Wan Qing. At this moment, Wan Qing was waiting for him outside.
Alas, the prince has spoken, and he doesn’t dare to hide a word. I hope that silly elder sister Wan Qing won’t say anything to him that he shouldn’t!
