Chapter 156 Rules Are Alive
"When their family's business starts, they have money and wear silk clothes, they will have rules and etiquette." Mrs. Shi said in a calm tone.

"Oh." Mrs. Pan Jiu looked discouraged, and turned to Li Xiaonan, "I don't like to eat without talking. I like to eat in restaurants and sit in the lobby. Even if I can't speak, I can listen to others."

"I don't like it either. Our family will have money in the future, so we don't have the rule of eating without talking." Li Xiaonan laughed.

Mrs. Shi, who was leaning over to bring the tea, paused, then picked up the tea and looked at Li Xiaonan.

"It's not a rule of any family to eat without talking, everyone has such a rule." Mrs. Wei Fourth calmly smoothed things over in the middle.

"My brother went to the banquet, the literary meeting, and their classmates had dinner together. It was very lively." Li Xiaonan continued.

"That's right! When I went to the banquet with A Niang, we also talked while eating and toasted!" Mrs. Pan Jiu clapped her hands and laughed.

"When going out to socialize, the focus is on entertainment, not on diet. When eating, the focus is on diet. While eating and talking, the mind cannot concentrate on diet. When talking and talking, the breath will dissipate, and the diet will also dissipate. It cannot be used to nourish the body. " Mrs. Shi spoke in a low voice.

"That's it. Eating without talking is not for etiquette or anything, it's a way to preserve one's health." Mrs. Wei Si hurriedly laughed, "In addition to eating without speaking, each family also has its own way of preserving health.

"For example, in our family, green tea is not allowed for a month before and after the winter solstice, because it is said that the cold air is strong, and the cold of green tea cannot be tolerated at the beginning of the sun.

"For example, in a lady's house, you must wear cotton socks when you sleep. Each family has its own particulars."

"Brother Liang, the eldest lady's younger brother, doesn't like to wear socks to sleep. The eldest lady asked people to sew the socks and pants, and then sew the pants and shirt together. Later, Brother Liang changed it." Mrs. Pan Jiu laughed. road.

"Brother Liang is so pitiful." Li Xiaonan sighed sympathetically.

Mrs. Shi's upper body was slightly straight. Mrs. Wei was surprised at first, but then she felt a little embarrassed. Just as she was about to divert her conversation, Li Xiaonan leaned forward, looked at Mrs. Shi, then at Mrs. Wei, and asked seriously: "What about you?" Do the two families live longer than other families? Does everyone live longer than other families?"

Miss Wei Fourth and Mrs. Shi were stunned together.

"Did your two families just want to drink green tea in the twelfth lunar month and sleep with bare feet? Did they fall ill after drinking green tea and went barefoot? Are their health not as good as the rest of your family? Is it shorter than the rest of your family?" Li Xiaonan continued to ask.

Mrs. Pan Jiu blinked her eyes a few times, then burst out laughing, and pointed at Mrs. Shi, "Mrs. Mrs. Weng is [-] this year, and he sleeps barefoot. He will scold anyone who persuades him to wear socks." , very full of energy."

Mrs. Wei Si also wanted to laugh. Looking at Mrs. Shi's pale face, she hurriedly held back, and quickly smoothed things over and said, "It's all about the rules. A person's lifespan is a number. Miss Li is too serious."

"These rules are for keeping in good health, and more importantly, for restraining temperament and restraining nature. The reason why people are human is because they know the etiquette and abide by the rules." Mrs. Shi looked directly at Li Xiaonan.

"Concentrate your temperament and restrain your nature. There are laws and scriptures. If you can't even decide whether to wear socks or not when you sleep, what's the point of living? Is it a big deal whether you wear socks or not? To restrain your nature to this extent Are you serious?" Li Xiaonan was not polite.

Fourth Lady Wei still wanted to turn around, she opened her mouth, but no words came out.

"This is the rule of our historian. His surname is Shi, so he has to abide by it." Mrs. Shi straightened her back.

"Then when did your historian have this rule? Has it existed since you had this surname? Are your historian's rules valid in your historian's house, or do you have to abide by your historian's rules no matter where you are as long as you have the surname Shi?" ?
"Do people who visit your historian have to wear socks to sleep?

"Your Shi family are guests at other people's homes. For example, you are here. What are the rules here? If there is no rule about wearing socks to sleep, do you wear socks when you sleep?" Li Xiaonan asked a series of questions.

Mrs. Wei's brows raised when she heard this, and Mrs. Pan Jiu's eyes widened.

Mrs. Shi tightly pursed her lips and looked directly at Li Xiaonan.

"You sew up your brother's clothes. Your brother must be crying pitifully and making a lot of noise. Maybe he is going to be sick because of crying. If he is sick, do you still have to sew? You are for Do you want to keep him healthy?" Li Xiaonan continued to ask.

Mrs. Shi's face was livid.

"Miss Li, you told me to remind you to go back to read before the end of the afternoon!" Wan Qing couldn't bear it anymore, gritted her teeth, tried her best, and said this sentence respectfully and without emotion.

"Yes, yes. Farewell, thank you very much." Li Xiaonan hurriedly said goodbye.

After entering the study building, Wan Qing wailed, "You can't say a few words! Didn't you see Miss Shi Da's face? What rules in her house are none of your business?"

"I just think her brother is too pitiful." Li Xiaonan shrank her neck, muttered something, reached out and picked up the booklet she had read halfway in the morning, "I'm reading, stop talking, or I'll copy the wrong number!"

With her hands on her hips, Wan Qing looked at Li Xiaonan who was covering her head with one hand and buried her head in the booklet, panting heavily with anger.

How dare this damn girl offend Miss Shi, I really don't know how serious it is!
Alas, as soon as Shizi came back, she had to hurry to find Shi Gun. Alas, it might be useless to find Shi Gun, and Shi Gun definitely had no good ideas.

Alas, you damn girl!
....................................

Gu Yan returned to Bieye very late, and entered his courtyard, the woman in charge who was on duty in the study building came in to report the meal in the water pavilion.

Gu Yanping retreated from the steward, and immediately beckoned to Jin Shigun, and ordered: "Go and ask Miss Shi how she is."

Shi Gun agreed, and came back to report in a short time: "It is said that after Miss Li left, Mrs. Shi went back and walked to Liuyuan Pavilion. She said she was tired and wanted to be alone, and Mrs. Jiu went to find her." The second wife, the cousin girl was worried, and kept watching from behind that Taihu stone.

"The second wife went to the temple to fulfill her vow in the afternoon, and the ninth lady came back to watch with her cousin, and said that the eldest lady sat there for more than an hour before she stood up and walked back.

"Biao girl asked for a doctor. This is a pulse case. The doctor said that the eldest lady suffered from a cold and her mind was unstable. She prescribed a prescription. She has already taken the medicine and fell asleep."

"If Wan Qing comes to look for you, report it to me immediately." Gu Yan ordered.

Stone rolls his head down, it should be.

He was expected by the son again, when he just went out to find someone to inquire about, he bumped into Wan Qing, and at this moment, Wan Qing was waiting for him outside.

Alas, the elder son has spoken, he dare not hide a word, I hope Wan Qing, a silly elder sister, don't tell him what he shouldn't say!
