Aunt Pei went to Rong'an Hall and started crying as soon as she entered.
She didn't dare to cry outside, but she endured it all the way.
Of course she knew that the old lady would not care about it, and would only let her endure it first, but she had to let the old lady know about it. The aunt has always loved Hong'er, and to let her know how her good grandson was humiliated by the three girls, it is best to find a way to punish the arrogant girl with the enemy.
Of course, the old lady didn't care about this matter. No matter what level this matter was, Yan Hong was wrong, and it was not unreasonable for Yan Yan to punish him. After comforting Aunt Pei, the old lady let her go. Of course, Aunt Pei also aroused the old lady's deeper disgust for Yan Yan, so she didn't mention it.
Back at Ziyuxuan, Yan Hong was still making trouble, crying, howling, throwing things, and beating and scolding the maid. Yan Qian stepped forward and persuaded a few words, but before she could say anything, she was smashed on the arm by the oncoming object.
Seeing Aunt Pei coming back, Yan Qian stepped forward to complain with tears in her eyes.
"Mother, you take care of Yan Hong, look at him!"
"Okay, Qian'er, your brother is upset. He is still young, so let him go." With that, Concubine Pei stepped forward to coax Yan Hong. Only Aunt Pei can coax this little ancestor.
Yan Qian's eyes were red with anger, and she hated Yan Hong, who was being hugged and coaxed by Concubine Pei, and turned and ran away.
Aunt Pei didn't care about her daughter's anger and ran away, so she managed to coax her son into custody. The servants took advantage of this moment to stop making trouble, and hurriedly cleaned up the house, and the house was restored to its previous cleanliness and tidy.
"Mother, if I don't copy it, I just don't copy it. I don't copy Lao Shizi's "Disciple Rules", why should she punish me? Grandma won't punish me!"
Yan Hong was enlightened at the age of five, and now he has learned thousands of characters. It stands to reason that it is not difficult for him to copy the rules of the disciples. What he couldn't accept was being punished, or the punishment he had always hated Yan Yan, and the most important thing was actually punishing him for that Yan Mo.
Concubine Pei frowned and said sternly, "You must copy this "Disciple Rules", you can't miss it once!"
"Why?" After Yan Hong finished speaking, he began to howl, shaking his arms and kicking his legs, "I'm going to sue my grandmother..."
"Your grandmother made you copy too! So you have to copy!"
Being roared like this, Yan Hong was a little stunned.
Aunt Pei saw her son's face full of disbelief, and couldn't bear it in her heart, so she comforted: "Hong'er is obedient, this is what you did wrong, and it makes sense for the third girl to punish you wherever."
"What did I do wrong? Grandma didn't like Yan Mo."
"But this kind of thing can't be said in front of people. The third girl's grandfather has a big family, and now our family needs to ask others. Of course your grandmother likes you, not Yan Mo, but this kind of thing can't be known to outsiders. Yes, you are obedient, let's endure them first. Just wait for your father to come back, then mother will help you avenge... "
Aunt Pei spoke earnestly, Yan Hong's eyes became brighter and brighter, and gradually he felt that copying books didn't seem uncomfortable anymore. Mother was right, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.
***
Five days later, Concubine Pei brought Yan Hong to Ningxiang Pavilion, and respectfully presented the "Disciple Rules" copied a hundred times.
Yan Yan was obviously there, but she didn't see them. She only let Mama Zou stand under the porch to collect the things and let them go back.
Aunt Pei did not show a humiliating look, including Yan Hong, who was clearly facing a servant, and respectfully said that she knew she was wrong and would definitely not do it again in the future.
Yan Yan and Yan Mo were sitting on the big kang in the west and watching from the window. Mother Zou came in with the stack of papers with a worried look on her face.
Yan Yan took it over and turned it over, it was indeed written by Yan Hong. Although Yan Hong is studying, he is usually not serious and his handwriting is not good. These hundred times of "Disciple's Rules" were copied by him himself, and no one wrote it on behalf of him.
"Girl, these two should not be underestimated," said Mama Zou.
Yan Yan understands what it means, Aunt Pei is too tolerant, and Yan Hong clearly has a domineering and arrogant temperament, so she can actually persuade Aunt Pei to be honest, and she can suppress the humiliation and come here to admit her fault.
Being able to endure is not a bad thing, but if your enemy is able to endure, and can endure to this extent, then you need to guard against it. Because like this kind of person, their counterattack is also the most terrifying.
Sometimes looking at these people in the family, Yan Yan thinks it's not unreasonable for her mother to be so naive. When the people around you are the best at lying and acting, and are very tolerant, over time, who can tell the truth from false
In the early years, Aunt Pei, including the old lady, treated her mother very well. Why did it change slowly? First, people would get carried away when they were complacent, and second, it was because they each had children. Especially when her mother gave birth to A Mo, and Aunt Pei had Yan Hong, both of whom were male, and her heart inevitably changed.
This is an inextricable knot.
It is insatiable greed and desire to get things that do not belong to oneself. This is the inferiority of human nature.
But it doesn't matter, she will let them know what it means to draw water from a bamboo basket!
Yan Yan raised her eyes, looked at Mama Zou and said, "Mom, there are some things Ayan still don't understand. I'll ask you to teach me more in the future."
She has never been a character of subduing soldiers without fighting. Since she has to face it, she should face it well. In terms of identity, she has natural advantages and absolute pressure. Although Aunt Pei does not have an advantage in identity, she is very cunning and good at being a person, and she has endless slanderous methods.
Others have it, but I don't have it, so I need to make up for it. Even if you can't do what she does, at least you have to understand what it means. In order to overcome the enemy and win, guard against the front.
"Sister, what does Ah Mo need to do?" Yan Mo, who was sitting beside him, pulled Yan Yan's sleeve.
"You? Of course you take good care of your body, that's all."
Yan Mo nodded silently, but her little mouth pouted, always feeling that her elder sister treated herself as a child all day long.
Mama Zou said with a smile: "Master, the girl is right. You, you have to take care of your body first. After you take care of your body, you will learn your skills with your heart. In the future, the lady and the girl will have to rely on you for support."
In this world, after a woman gets married, firstly, she relies on her husband's favor and respect, and secondly, she has a family.
Yan Yan nodded, feeling quite reasonable.
A man stands tall in the world, standing upright in the sky, cheating and cheating are all fake tricks. Whoever has made meritorious deeds and made a career can only rely on intrigues and tricks to stand upright and stable, or he has to have real skills.
Thinking of this, Yan Yan's brows were relieved, and her heart was open.
"A Mo, what you have to do now is to take care of your body and study hard. Don't pay attention to those ghosts and ghosts. When we become stronger, they will only retreat without a fight."
It has to be said that Yan Yan is fighting the truth.
Abandon everything and don't look at it, cultivate one's self-cultivation first, and then stand up by oneself, do you still need to care about those who are cunning? When a person reaches a certain height, those mice that hide in the shadows and cannot see the light can be destroyed by raising their feet.
Her own strength is too important, and it depends on Yan Yan seeing the people of Weiyuan Hou's mansion from a young age, trying her best to please them and go to the town's mansion, not to mention what faces they turned around. Why do they want to please her so much, why did the old lady and Aunt Pei coax her, and why do they tolerate her being a little girl
It is said that the government of Zhenguo is too powerful, and they look down on it.
What they should do now is to rely on their grandfather and work hard to make themselves stronger. Yan Yan has not forgotten, it may not be long before his father will come back.
Yan Mo solemnly nodded his head.
Since then, Yan Mo has worked hard with Yan Yan to exercise every day and eat a lot to keep her body strong. And Yan Yan, her strength is very simple, that is to let her force value explode.
As she said, she has no talent at all for the things that girls should learn. So far, she can't embroider, and her knowledge is limited to literacy and etiquette, and her talent is even more unsightly.
She is not a pedantic person, and has no interest in hanging on to it. In recent years, she has also learned that what to learn depends on her interest. She has no patience and doesn't like those things, so she can't learn well. She likes to practice martial arts, so learn it well.
Because now she can only teach Yan Mo some things by herself, Yan Yan has not done her homework. In the rest of the time, in addition to teaching Yan Mo, she and Zou's mother learned some necessary things for women in the back house, and then she followed Hui Niang to learn Hui Niang's martial arts.
When she really started to get in touch with Hui Niang's martial arts, Yan Yan realized that what she had learned before was children's play. What used to be an hour-and-a-half morning exercise every day has now become uninterrupted around the clock. As long as I have time, I will practice diligently, and I have learned another weapon, the Emei thorn.
It was only then that Yan Yan knew that Madam Hui's weapon was never a whip, but only an accessory, and her main weapon was the Emei thorn.
Saying it is Emei thorn is a bit inconsistent. The Emei thorn is composed of two iron thorns, one in each hand. Emei thorn is a thick cone in the middle and thin at both ends. But Hui Niang's Emei thorn is a variation. It only has a cylinder in the middle, which is easy to grasp, while the front and rear tips are extremely thin blades, and the sharpness implies murderous intent, which is shocking.
The weapon does not have a name, and Hui Niang said that she improved it by herself when she was young.
Mother Hui did not let Yan Yan use this as a weapon, but gave her a pair of Emei thorns for her daily practice.
As for Yan Yan's coveted light-weight kung fu, Madam Hui said that it was useless to hurry, she just had to practice the internal skills she taught her. Two years ago, Madam Hui taught Yan Yan how to practice inner strength. After Yan Yan had a sense of energy, she would take time to meditate for an hour or two before going to bed every day. Now that I heard that light-body kung fu is well thought out, the necessary internal support is more attentive, but this is indeed as Hui Niang said, it cannot be rushed, and it will accumulate over time.
Just like Madam Hui, who started practicing since she was a child, and has practiced for decades, her natural inner strength is deep and powerful.
Press not to mention, at the same time, something happened at the border.
Daxi has a vast territory, and the country is rich and the people are strong. Up to now, the Beiyi family in the extreme north can be called the enemy.
The Beiyi tribe is a nomadic people, located in the north, with a harsh climate and no agricultural land. They have always coveted the rich land of Daxi, and they have repeatedly attacked until they were defeated by Shen Maoshan, the Duke of Zhenguo who guarded the border more than 20 years ago. Like a plate of loose sand, torn apart, lingering on. Subsequent attacks are all petty, and they can't make any waves.
Pingsha Pass is the first checkpoint to guard against the northern barbarians. At this time, in a mansion in Pingsha City, Yan Ting was furious.
Yan Ting has always been calm and self-controlled, quite strategic, and he treats people with gentleness without losing the decisiveness and perseverance of a military commander. No matter how embarrassing or difficult the situation was, he felt that he could laugh it off, but at this time he realized that he still overestimated his self-control.
"Master Marquis, it's absolutely unacceptable. If you hear it, others will think you have any opinion on the court order!"
Yan Ting put down the inkstone in his hand, and the study was in a mess at this time. There were three tall and strong Weiyuan Hou family generals, all of whom were Yan Ting's confidants.
"Shuzi is too deceiving!"
The Shuzi did not specify who he was talking about, Wang Meng, Wang Qin, and Liu Ju all shrank their necks. They can understand the suffocation in Lord Hou's heart, but... the situation is beyond our control!
"Maybe something happened in the capital?" Liu Ju frowned and analyzed.
Otherwise, it really doesn't make sense, that's fine, and the Hou Ye was suddenly transferred away.
Yan Ting also went to find his uncle, but Shen Dong, the general of Xuanwei, was just patrolling the border. After all, this pass is not only a city of Pingsha City, but also surrounded by several acropolis, so the defense line of Pingsha Pass is formed. The border patrol will not return for ten days and a half months, but the date on the transfer order is extremely urgent.
Wang Qin muttered in a low voice: "Don't forget that the old man of the Marquis is the left governor of the five army governor's mansion."
Wang Meng glared at his younger brother angrily, "Then don't forget that although the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies is in charge of all the troops and horses in the world, the dispatching orders are under the control of the Division of Military Affairs!"
Wang Qin wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Wang Meng, he swallowed the rest of the words angrily.
"You go down first." Yan Ting said.
Wang Meng pulled Wang Qin and walked out, followed by Liu Ju.
"Brother, why don't you let me tell you!"
"Okay, don't make a mess, I didn't see that Lord Hou was annoying right now."
"That Beiyi side..."
"Silence, you will completely forget this for me in the future, so you can't mention it again."
…
Yan Ting sat in the room, his face gloomy and scary.
The time for the transfer was urgent, and Shen Dong could not be contacted there, and it was too late to deliver the letter to Beijing. Now the only plan is to listen to the transfer back to Beijing and then talk about it. No one knew that Yan Ting was bleeding at this time. If there was no accident, perhaps this year's severe winter would be the greatest opportunity in his life...
This is like the feeling of someone who has been hungry for a long time and finally grabbed a meat bun, but he was robbed before he could eat it.
Now the situation is like a mess, and for a while, Yan Ting can't analyze why this is the case.
It makes no sense that the Shen family would play tricks behind his back. After all, he has always been the good son-in-law of Duke Zhen Guo. If he hadn't been relieved, Duke Zhen Guo would not have bothered to arrange him under his eldest brother-in-law. Before the eldest brother Shen Dong left, he also asked him to go over and warn him.
Maybe something really went wrong in Beijing, but what problem could stop Duke Zhen Guo from being overwhelmed, so that he should be transferred back
In addition, Yan Ting was still distressed by the large sum of money he threw down, and now it has gone and never returned. It's just that this matter must not be publicized, otherwise it will be a disaster.
After careful consideration, Yan Ting recruited several confidants and warned them carefully. Sweeping the end, Yan Ting left Pingshaguan where he had stayed for nearly three years with full of doubts.
