Improper cannon fodder for fast wear

Chapter 1113 Nouveau riche house 16
Su Dazhu didn't expect that the flames of war could still burn himself. He is 40 years old and still has to study, so he can't help but feel sad, but his father said so, and he can't object, so he can only listen.

Butler Sun on the side heard that the Su family wanted to study, which didn't surprise him, because it was normal. In this era, the first thing for any wealthy family to do is to train their children to study. After all, everything is inferior, and only There is a high degree of reading, isn't it, so the Su family would think of letting their children study, that's normal.

But...they didn't think about letting the girls study, which obviously means that they don't have more awareness. Butler Sun felt that this should belong to the scope that the Su family didn't ask, but he should remind him, so Steward Sun immediately said: "Not only The young masters should study, and the young ladies should also study."

Gao shook his head and said: "Girls are going to get married. What kind of books are they studying? It's a waste of money and food."

Although no one in the Su family is studying, she has heard people say that in their countryside, a child studying in the countryside costs more than ten taels of silver a year, let alone in the capital, more than ten taels a year is definitely not enough, I'm afraid It's more expensive, it's so expensive, it will cost a lot of money for a few boys to read it, the earl's salary is only 600 taels a year, it sounds like they earn a lot more than they used to plan food at home, but the capital spends money It's also amazing, like girls' clothes, jewelry, rouge and gouache, all of which are very expensive, and there are more people who study, and the family may not be able to afford it, so it is impossible to read them all.

Although it is said that there are rewards in the palace, it is possible. If there are not many rewards in a year, then they only rely on the 600 taels of salary, and they must not spend it indiscriminately.

As for other people giving money to their family, that is also unreliable. If someone gives you a congratulatory gift, in the future you will definitely have to give money to someone else when they do something.

So I gave Su Dahua, Su Erhua, Su Daniu's family 100 taels a year, and the Gao family will not give it in the future, because my family doesn't have enough money, so I also give my son-in-law and grandson-in-law 100 taels a year to support the family. Why should their family ask the Su family to support them? Anyway, I left my hometown and fooled them, so I won't pester them. If I want them to take them to the capital, I don't care about them. I'm not afraid that they will find the capital to ask for money. Even if they come, she will scold them After all, it’s fine to support their daughter, and she needs to spend money to support their family. Why—yes, it is to support the entire family of the Cao family, the Jin family, and the Ding family. After all, 100 taels is very valuable in the countryside. It is estimated that it can not only support their entire family, They can also support their relatives.

Butler Sun knew that Gao would say this, because from what he heard, this Su family was owned by Gao's housekeeper, and Gao was also very stingy and patriarchal, so it was normal to say this.

However, Steward Sun still dutifully said: "Your daughters in Beijing also ask female gentlemen to teach them, not to mention being proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, at least you need to be able to read and write, otherwise how will you manage the house in the future? At that time, the general big family chose to be the head of the house, and those who could not read would generally not choose, lest they would not be able to read in the future, and they would not even know the account book, and they would not be able to manage the house."

Butler Sun didn't say that the girl from the Su family was illiterate and would not be able to get married in the future. He just said that when Mrs. Gao heard that the big family chose to be the mistress and wanted to choose literate, she would definitely spend money to let the girl learn. After all, Mrs. Gao doesn't seem to be stingy about the girls' dress. She probably wants the girls to marry a good family so that they can support their natal families. After all, she has already tasted the sweetness of her daughter marrying a good family from Su Niangniang. Will give up this shortcut.

Sure enough, when he said this, Gao immediately lost the idea that it doesn't matter if the girl is illiterate, and immediately made a decision, saying: "In this case, then it's okay, let's also ask a female gentleman to teach the girls how to read and write."

Although she is reluctant to spend money, for the sake of long-term planning, she should spend some money.

And An Ran saw that Steward Sun's talk moved Gao to ask the female gentleman to teach them how to read, so she couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that it would be all right now, someone would teach her how to read, so she wouldn't have to pretend to be illiterate in the future.

After discussing with Su Laoshuan, Mrs. Gao entrusted the matter of finding a teacher for the boys and girls to Steward Sun. After all, they were so blind to the capital that they couldn't find it by themselves.

Steward Sun originally wanted to take good care of the Su family so that he could fulfill Eunuch Li's entrustment, make Eunuch Li happy in the future, and bring benefits to his family, so after hearing the entrustment from Mrs. Gao and Mr. Su, he naturally agreed.

Afterwards, Mrs. Gao took Steward Sun to ask about the situation of various families in Beijing, and Steward Sun naturally introduced them one by one.

If it wasn't for the fact that the Su family was illiterate, otherwise it would be very simple. He only needs to sort out a set of information about each family in the capital and give it to the Su family. He doesn't need to talk about it one by one. It is still impossible to remember, after all, a good memory is not as good as a bad pen.

After three days in this way, the Su family had a general understanding of the various families in the capital, and immediately an acquaintance, Eunuch Zhang, came over early in the morning, and took Gao and others into the palace to meet Su Niangniang.

Gao Shi and others were naturally happy, and immediately put on their clothes happily, and entered the palace with Zhang Gonggong.

But after entering the palace, they were obviously shocked by the majestic and solemn appearance of the palace. No one dared to chatter like they did outside, but carefully looked at the solemn and solemn palace around them, not daring to make a sound up.

Concubine Su Gui is the most favored concubine at the moment, even the sixth palace, so she lives in the best palace in the palace, and Emperor Kang and Emperor are willing to spend money for her, decorating her palace with splendor and splendor. Very majestic - of course, it also attracted a lot of abuse from courtiers, scolding Concubine Su as a demon concubine. Fortunately, Emperor Kang He has not done anything stupid for the time being besides doting on Concubine Su (although everyone thinks it will happen sooner or later. matter), so the only person who was scolded was Concubine Su, and Kang and the emperor were less scolded.

The Su family didn't know that Emperor Kang and Emperor's courteous treatment of Concubine Su brought her a lot of infamy. I know how the people in Beijing think of them, and I don’t know how many people scolded Concubine Su Gui, but I am very happy just looking at this magnificent palace. It's really favored, otherwise the place to live would not be so good, you must know that along the way, I haven't seen a more magnificent palace than this one.

They didn't know, but An Ran knew that Concubine Su Gui, who appeared to be incomparably prosperous and wealthy, had already been cooked on fire. Even she herself was proud of the emperor's favor, and she didn't realize that the danger was coming.

Not long after, the Su family arrived at Concubine Su's palace.
