married daughter

Chapter 31 The enemy is too cunning

At the same time in Cuiyuan, Aunt Cui came out of the small kitchen, carrying her special fried pork, and walked gracefully into the main room with lotus steps.

The third master was sitting at the table, sipping his wine and eating his vegetables.

"Master, drink less, too much will hurt your health." He moved the three dishes of side dishes on the table with his hand, and put the freshly cooked fried pork in the middle.

The third master put down the wine cup angrily, and cursed: "That wicked woman! A good child has been brought up badly by her! Look at Xiu'er, then look at Xia'er, the two sisters are as willful and arrogant, how can you tell? A little bit of the demeanor that a lady should have!"

"Master, don't be angry, my wife doesn't mean it."

"Don't talk about her." The third master looked at Aunt Cui with pity, grabbed her white and greasy little hand and put it in the palm of his hand, "I know all the grievances you have suffered these days, your hands fit perfectly shoes, fried delicious little fried pork, she will vent her anger with your hand and ask you to hold a candle for her, look at the burns on your hand..."

"Master." Aunt Cui smiled with tears in her eyes and put her hand behind her back, saying: "The maid and concubine only hope that the master will live well, and don't ask for anything else, Madam, she doesn't like me, I understand, all of this It's a small matter."

"Small matter?" The third master pulled Aunt Cui to sit down, and said, "If she had half your mind, my daughter wouldn't let her be raised like that!"

Aunt Cui shook her head, and refilled the third master's glass of wine with her own hands, "Master, calm down."

Looking at the mellow Aunt Cui's dependent eyes, the third master seemed to have found his balance, and the self-esteem that was hurt by the Jun family just now has been recovered now.He also gave her a piece of meat, "Eat more too."

Aunt Cui nodded with a smile, and obediently ate the piece of meat with a look of gratitude.

The male chauvinism in the heart of the third master continued to expand, and being with Aunt Cui made him feel that he was strong and needed all the time.Compared with that crazy woman, Xiaocui is not so many times better.He was really blind...

Just as he was thinking wildly, a soft voice suddenly came from the door: "Fang'er (Min'er) send my father's greetings."

The third master smiled, put down his chopsticks and said, "Let them in quickly."

"Yes."

Aunt Cui got up and lifted the cotton curtain, Xu Ningmin and Xu Ningfang entered the room one after the other, bowing to the third master in a proper manner.

The third master looked at the round and lovely Xu Ningmin with kind eyes.Looking at the sweet Xu Ningfang again, her heart aches to the core.After stroking their beards, they were just about to test their knowledge, but Aunt Cui spoke first.

"You guys made a big mistake today, why don't you kneel down!"

Xu Ningmin and Xu Ningfang looked at each other, although they didn't understand why, they both knelt down obediently.

The third master hurriedly said: "What is wrong with the children, what are you punishing them for?"

Aunt Cui became strict at this moment, she didn't have the weak appearance just now, and said: "You two concubine sisters who are the eighth girl, saw that my sister was impulsive, but didn't know how to stop her! You offended your father, now you know your mistake Already!"

Xu Ningmin didn't take it seriously, wondering how Xu Ningxia had anything to do with her.

But Xu Ningfang immediately understood Aunt Cui's intentions, with tears in her eyes, she kowtowed and said, "What my aunt taught me is that my daughter should unite with sisters, but I didn't have time today...My daughter knows her mistake, please calm down."

Aunt Cui scolded: "Since you know you are wrong, both of you go to one side and kneel, holding the incense burner."

"Yes."

Xu Ningfang cried and knelt to the side, holding the incense burner with both hands above her head, her pitiful face covered with tears.

Xu Ningmin didn't know what her mother was going to do, but she just did it, so she followed Xu Ningfang's example, knelt to one side with her chubby body, and held up the incense burner, but she couldn't shed tears.

The third master felt distressed, patted the table and said: "The two of them are already sensible enough. Xia'er made a mistake by herself, so what should she do with her two younger sisters? Who can stop her frightened temper, what are you doing?" I'm going to wrong the child!" The third master was already extremely tired of Junshi and Xu Ningxia in his heart.

Aunt Cui choked up and said, "The concubine only hopes to share the master's worries."

"Min'er and Fang'er taught you very well, but you can't blame them for today's incident, let's let them go to lunch."

Xu Ningfang raised her head timidly, not daring to answer, just waiting for Aunt Cui to speak.That pitiful appearance made the third master feel even more distressed.

Aunt Cui accepted it as well, and sighed: "Okay, since your father spoke, you can go down. You don't need to kneel today."

Xu Ningmin and Xu Ningfang, as if they had been pardoned, put down the incense burner and kowtowed, and then retreated.

After arriving in the yard, Xu Ningmin asked Xu Ningfang in a low voice: "What do you mean just now?"

There are still tears on Xu Ningfang's face, but where is there any grievance?It was replaced by a smug smile: "Our mother is the smartest, if you don't understand, just do it."

Xu Ningmin's head was full of confusion, and she felt that she didn't understand Xu Ningfang more and more.

"Words are face. You will all be the mistresses one day in the future. Can you avoid being the accountant and writing? Look at your handwriting." Cao Mama wrote the crooked "Heaven, Earth, Mystery, Yellow and Universe" written by Ruan Yunting. "Hong Huang" was thrown on the table, and he cursed: "Like a dog crawling, no matter how smart and dexterous you are, what can you do if you can't get the words out!"

Ruan Yunting didn't dare to say a word after being scolded, she just lowered her head and acted cutely, the people around her looked at her, some sympathized, some gloated, but they didn't show it.

Mammy Cao stroked her forehead. Not many girls could read, but she never imagined that in a family like Xu's, there would be 12-year-olds who couldn't even write "Thousand Characters" well.

"From now on, you have practiced Chinese characters for two hours a day, and you will check them for me the next day. You are a beginner, so start with Zhao Ti." As he spoke, he dug out a book by Zhao Mengfu. "Thousand Characters" was handed to Ruan Yunting: "Zhao style calligraphy is round and elegant, and the frame is square. It is suitable for entry-level training. When you are proficient in how to use a pen, I am looking for "Mysterious Tower Stele" for you to copy."

"Yes." Ruan Yunting took it with both hands, and sighed secretly in her heart, it seems that she will also learn willow script in her life.But it doesn't matter, she was very confident in her etiquette in her previous life, so she was not picked up by so many questions in the end, it doesn't matter if she starts from scratch.

"Go back to Madam Cao." At this moment, a little girl from outside came to send a message, "Go back to Madam Cao, the aunt has brought the fourth young master of the Jun family here, and the old lady ordered the girls to hurry up."

"Understood." Cao Mama waved the little girl to retreat, and then smiled knowingly: "Today is Baihua's birthday, and I probably want you to go with me for an outing."

"Outing!"

The young girls cheered, even if they were precocious, they were still children after all.Even Ruan Yunting, who is "tender on the outside and coquettish on the inside", is a little excited. She has been bored in the mansion for so long, and she has long wanted to go out for a stroll.
