After a visit to the Duke's Mansion, not only Luo Huaiyuan got what he wanted, but Yan Mo was also in a good mood.
Since he was a child, he has been surrounded by maids and wives, and when his sister plays with him, it is only two people talking or playing with toys or something. It was the first time for him to play with boys, although he was just watching, watching cousin Shen Qi running around and climbing up and down.
Seeing that her brother was happy, Yan Yan was also in a good mood. She thought that she would bring her brother out to play more next time. Boys could play better with boys. Thinking of this, she didn't feel that she would come to Luo Huaiyuan to play with Shen Qi in the future. Embarrassed, although it is not very convenient for her to go out of the house, there is always a way.
Back at the house, Yan Mo still looked very happy and happy. He was always shy and timid. For the first time, he pulled Qin's mother and told him how powerful his cousin was. He helped him catch birds and eggs. He was very excited. Little face flushed.
There was laughter inside the house, and Shen Yiyao stood under the porch outside.
She wanted to see her son, but she was afraid that he would not be used to going out, but Mo'er was actually better than she thought. She shook her head at the maid who was preparing to report, and silently turned to leave, feeling incomparably complicated.
***
It seems that everything has changed, and it seems that it has not.
When Yan Mo felt better, Yan Yan took him to greet the old lady every day. Of course, Shen Yiyao also went there, but Yan Yan hardly had anything to say to her now, and even if the two talked, they only said a few things about Yan Mo.
Because of Yan Mo's frequent appearances, Yan Hong received a lot of neglect at Rong'an Hall. This Yan Hong is used to it, and has always been favored by the old lady. In the past, Yan Mo was not in good health, and it was rare to come to Rong'an Tang once a month. Now that Yan Yan brings Yan Mo to greet him every day, he has to retreat.
Yan Hong is still young after all, even if he thinks more than other children, he is still a child after all. There have been countless troubles in private, and Aunt Pei has also talked to him a lot, including Mrs. Yan who has comforted him. But if a child can control his temper, he is not a child.
On this day, seeing how everyone in the hall was talking about the Fourth Young Master, and the grandmother was holding that Yan Mo with love on his face, Yan Hong couldn't bear it any longer, and rushed forward to drag him hard.
"You come down, this is where I sit, and you get off me."
Yan Hong's action was too unexpected, Aunt Pei was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward and dragged him into her arms. Yan Hong is already seven years old, and he has a strong body again, and it is not something that Aunt Pei can hold when struggling. As he fought desperately, he shouted, "Grandmother, you obviously don't like him, you like Hong'er the most, why don't you hug him and not Hong'er."
The smiles of everyone in the room froze, but Yan Yan laughed instead, but for a moment, she snorted coldly and didn't speak.
Aunt Pei covered his mouth and reprimanded: "You are a spoiled child, what nonsense is it, how could the old lady dislike the fourth young master, as long as it is the grandson of the old lady, she likes it."
Mrs. Yan nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, Hong'er, as long as it is grandmother's grandson, grandmother likes it. You can't lose your temper just because grandma loves Amo more, your brother is weak, is it difficult? I have to fight with my brother."
They are all capable people who can talk. After a few words, they pointed out that the old lady hurts Yan Mo a little bit, and also pointed out that Yan Hong is just a kid fighting for it, so don't think about it too much.
Yan Hong was also carried down, as if nothing had happened, and there was laughter in the room again.
But if there is one, only God knows.
Yan Yan didn't pay attention to Shen Yiyao's expression.
After returning to Ningxiang Pavilion, Yan Yan wanted to appease Yan Mo a few words.
Who knows, Yan Mo smiled shyly and said that he had long known that his grandmother didn't like him, it didn't matter, as long as his mother and sister liked him.
Although she was mentally prepared, Yan Yan still sighed that her younger brother had grown up.
Feeling that her brother was wronged, Yan Yan decided that this matter could not be left alone. After that, she explained to Zou's mother, and Zou's mother went to Ziyuxuan on behalf of the third girl.
In previous years, Mama Zou was in charge of the government of Zhenguo, and was responsible for receiving and entertaining the female relatives who came to the government of Zhenguo as guests and holding banquets.
She went to Ziyuxuan with a solemn face, and invited Aunt Pei and Yan Hong to the scene.
In front of the two, he explained some big truths. For example, the young masters should know how to advance and retreat and understand etiquette. The third young master is not too small. Although he is a scumbag, going out in the future will represent the face of Weiyuanhou. Being sensible, it will only be the face of Hou Ye.
As the eldest sister, the third girl has the duty to teach her younger brother when her father is absent. For the sake of the Weiyuan Houfu, and for the sake of his younger brother not to go astray, Yan Hong was punished to copy the "Disciple Rules" a hundred times as a warning.
Of course, Yan Yan's original words were not what she said. She only said that Yan Hong would be punished for copying the rules of the disciples a hundred times, and he would submit it to me for inspection in five days.
But Mama Zou added a lot of words that she thought were more appropriate. Speaking is also an art. It can be added into other words according to different needs. The effect is the same, and a lot of things are saved.
For example, Yan Yan didn't want to make a big deal, so she wanted to punish Yan Hong and make him feel uncomfortable.
If there is a servant, he will speak out the words of the three girls. Aunt Pei and Yan Hong would definitely go to the old lady's place to make trouble because of this tone. But Mama Zou changed her rhetoric, adding that she was born, her father was absent, and the eldest sister had the duty to teach her younger brother, and then put on two big hats, and got the same result, but Aunt Pei and Yan Hong were the same. Don't dare to make trouble, unless you think that Weiyuan Hou's mansion is not good, that your son is going the wrong way, and that you don't respect the elders, and you don't know the honor.
The honor and inferiority of elders and children has always been followed by the world, even Yan Yan, she can beat and scold her servants, reprimand Pei Auntie, and punish Yan Hong. She is clearly disgusted with the old lady, but she still has to endure it. Why is this
Not only because Mrs. Yan can pretend, but also because for no reason, as a junior, you can't disobey your elders. Xue's family doesn't count. First, the big room is not from the main branch of Weiyuanhou Palace, and secondly, the big room relies on the main branch to eat, and thirdly, Xue's family can't provoke Yan Yan and the Zhenguo Gongfu behind her.
Of course, this also shows that, in fact, the elders and the youngers can be overthrown, of course, you are strong enough in advance. No matter what the reason is, at least there must be a bottom line that others must swallow. It's just that people act and do things without a certain reason, and they will follow the conventions of the world. It's not impossible to be too maverick, but it must be appropriate.
Like this time, Aunt Pei can still go to the old lady to complain about her grievances. Not to mention which side the old lady is on, Yan Yan has a big hat buckle that says "the elder and the younger are respected, for you, and for Weiyuan Houfu". Down, they will be crushed.
Without him, firstly, I will respect you, secondly, I will grow up with you, thirdly, I will have righteousness, and fourthly, you have no capital to resist.
Aunt Pei understood this very well, but Yan Hong didn't understand it, and immediately went to his grandmother to complain.
Mama Zou frowned and said, "The old lady is just a slave, but she came here on behalf of the three young ladies. Aunt Pei, although Mrs. sympathy made you raise the third young master yourself, how will the third young master play a big role in the future with your upbringing? ?!"
Aunt Pei tightly clenched the handkerchief in her hand, bowed her head and said, "Mom said yes."
Mother Zou's face was serious, and she sneered in her heart, "Then Aunt Wanwang will take more effort to supervise, and don't waste the painstaking efforts of the three girls. The slaves will retire first."
After Mama Zou left, the main room of Ziyuxuan was smashed into a mess by Aunt Pei.
"Good you three girls, good you mother Zou!"
…
Zou's mother returned to Ningxiang Pavilion to return to her life, Yan Yan and Yan Mo were sitting on the big kang in the west.
Yan Mo was drawing red, while Yan Yan watched.
Zou's mother did not leave after recovering her life, but stood at the edge of the kang. Seeing this, Yan Yan ordered Yimeng to move a round pier to Zou's mother and let her sit down.
Mother Zou described everything after going to Ziyuxuan, Yan Yan fell into deep thought, and Yan Mo quietly put down the brush in her hand and listened.
"I wonder what the girl heard?"
Yan Yan hesitated: "It seems that if the same thing is said, it's a little different for my mother to say it."
Zou's mother smiled in approval, "Girl Bingxue is smart and can do everything right. Before the slaves came, Madam once said that although the girl is talented and intelligent, she can't rub the sand in her eyes, she is young, has a strong temper, and is straightforward in her behavior. Of course, this is not the case. Well, it's just that the girl needs to understand the difference. If you encounter such a thing in the future, even if you let the slaves do things, you still need to point it out. Otherwise, the same thing, different people do it differently. ." After all, not every servant has such deep Taoism as Mama Zou.
Of course Yan Yan understood that it was for her own good, and she was grateful, "Thanks to my second aunt, and thanks to my mother for being there for her."
"The girl said that, it made the slaves panic. This is what the lady explained before the slaves came. After all, the girl is not too young, and it is time to learn these things." Of course, this lady was not referring to Shen Yiyao, but the second lady Shen. . Zou's mother was the dowry of Mrs. Shen's second wife. It was only after she came here that Yan Yan knew that the second aunt had given her all her arms, so she was moved.
"In the future, when A Yan does things, she will have to give more advice and guidance from her mother." Generally speaking, although Yan Yan has a quick temper and a violent temper, she is still a modest and polite girl.
"It's natural." Zou's mother stood up, bowed and said, "The servant will retire first."
Yan Yan thought about her second aunt who was well-intentioned, and then thought about Shen Yiyao, who should have taught her this, and a bitterness came to her heart.
Soon she threw it away and turned to look at Yan Mo. Yan Mozheng grabbed the brush in his small hand and traced stroke by stroke on the paper.
Yan Mo was still not enlightened due to physical problems, so Yan Yan taught him a few words when he had nothing to do, and even found out the red book that he had drawn at the time to give Yan Mo's envoy. After a few days, Yan Mo's writing was not good, but his posture was similar.
"A Mo, when you feel better, my sister will invite a gentleman to enlighten you. I will teach you one by myself, and we won't go with Yan Hong and the others."
Yan Mo nodded obediently, "Okay."
