542 Tong Fang

When lunch was approaching, Zao Zao woke up. When Zao Zao heard that it was already noon, her expression changed, she hurriedly dressed and went to the front yard.

Yuxi got the news and said with a smile: "Finally, there are people she is afraid of." This girl is bold, there is nothing she dare not do, otherwise how dare she get drunk. This time, I hope that Huo Changqing can punish her severely, so that she won't dare to get drunk again.

Unfortunately, what disappointed Yuxi was that Huo Changqing didn't punish Zaozao for being drunk, but only punished Zaozao for not going to practice martial arts on time in the morning.

Yuxi couldn't help but muttered to Nanny Quan: "What do you think Uncle Huo is thinking? How can you not punish that girl for such a big thing as getting drunk?" It seems that she still has to do it. In fact, Yu Xi is not willing to punish Zao Zao, because Zao Zao is not afraid of her, and her beating and scolding are useless to Zao Zao.

Sister Quan said: "Huo Changqing raised Zao Zao as a boy. To Huo Changqing, it's not a big deal for this boy to get drunk. If you want to correct this girl, you can't let Huo Changqing raise her anymore."

Yuxi smiled wryly and said: "A saying with Rui before was very correct. Since you decided to let Zaozao take this path, you can't change it. Besides, this girl's temperament is also suitable for this path." Words are the key point, if Zao Zao's temperament is not suitable, even if she turns against Huo Changqing, she will not let Zao Zao go this way.

Mother Quan hummed and said: "Actually, you don't have to think too much. Now that you have Qihao, the road ahead will not be difficult." An heir and a female general are very different. Zao Zao wants to inherit everything from Yunqing, and the pressure she has to bear is beyond imagination. To be a female general, she only needs to be able to tame her subordinates and know how to fight.

Yuxi nodded and said, "When Qihao grows up, I still want Uncle Huo to teach him." Although Huo Changqing is very strict, Yuxi thinks that Huo Changqing is good at teaching children. Although Zao Zao is naughty, he is fine on the outside, for example, he is very kind to his younger siblings, and he is very patient with Liu Er.

Sister Quan smiled and said, "Qihao can't just practice martial arts like Zaozao." As a person in power, resourcefulness and the means of controlling are the most important. As for martial arts, it's good to have this talent, and it doesn't matter much if you don't have it.

Yuxi smiled and said: "It's natural." Yuxi didn't force Zaozao to learn before, one is that Zaozao didn't want to learn, she felt that forcing Zaozao to learn was counterproductive; She gave birth to a son, so she felt that there was no need to make Zao Zao so hard.

Sister Quan frowned and said, "Qihao's status is different. Mr. Xun should not only be educated, rich and respected, but also good at strategy." demanding. In the northwest, there is no candidate who can satisfy Madam Quan.

Yuxi smiled and said: "Qihao is still young, it will take at least three years to find a husband, don't worry." Boys are all enlightened at the age of three, while girls have no restrictions.

Sister Quan hesitated for a while and said: "Although you have given birth to Qihao now, Qihao alone is still too small." Sister Quan meant that after Yuxi raised her health, she would give Qihao a younger brother. Although Yuxi and Yunqing are loving each other now, Mammy Quan still thinks that her husband is not as reliable as her son. As long as Yu Xi gave birth to two sons, even if Yun Qing changed his mind in the future, Yu Xi's position would not be shaken.

Yuxi smiled, and said: "We will discuss this matter after Qihao turns one year old." Having many children and grandchildren is a blessing, and Yuxi also wants to have more, but the premise is that it can't hurt her body.

Sister Quan said this on purpose, because he was worried that Yuxi would not want to have any more children for the time being because of government affairs. Seeing that Yu Xi had a plan in mind, she didn't say any more.

The two had just finished their conversation when Licorice said outside: "Princess Tong, Mrs. Tong has already brought her here." If Tong Fang's affairs are not settled properly, Cui Mo will not be able to go back. So this matter has to be dealt with as soon as possible.

Tong Fang knelt on the ground as soon as she entered the room,

After kowtowing three times to Yuxi, she said like a mosquito: "Greetings to the princess, I wish the princess a blessing like the East China Sea, and a longevity like Nanshan."

Yuxi was stunned at first, but when she saw Tong Fang's annoyed expression, she knew that she was so nervous that she said the wrong thing, and immediately said with a smile: "You don't have to be afraid, I'm not a tiger, I won't eat you." Seeing that Tong Fang didn't dare to make a sound, she smiled and said, "Look up and let me see."

Tong Fang raised her head as she said, and looked at Yu Xi who was sitting on the soft couch smiling and smiling, and a lot of the fear in her heart was relieved. Tong Fang's voice was a little louder than before: "I shouldn't be talking nonsense, please forgive my sin." Before coming here, Cui Mo taught her to say auspicious words when she saw Yuxi, but she said the wrong words because of nervousness up.

Looking at Tong Fang, Yuxi knew why Xiang Weiguo was reluctant to part with the Yan family. Tong Fang has a big pie face, dark and rough skin, and callused hands. Such an appearance is hard to please men. It would be fine if she met a man who only looks at the inside like Cui Mo, but she happened to meet Xiang Weiguo who likes beauty. Ask Yuxi to say that it is a good thing for Tong Fang to reconcile with Xiang Weiguo now, and even if there is no Yan family with Tong's appearance, Xiang Weiguo will let other women step on her head in the future. Because Xiang Weiguo didn't like the Tong family at all.

Yuxi said with a smile: "Don't keep kneeling, stand up!" How can she be so narrow-minded, and punish people without saying a word.

Licorice saw that Tong Fang hadn't moved, and stepped forward to help her up.

Aunt Quan, who was standing beside Yuxi, asked, "Can you read?" Seeing Tong Fang shaking her head, Aunt Quan did not show any disappointment. In the bitter cold of Yucheng, there are very few people who can read and practice calligraphy, let alone Tong Fang is a woman. Sister Quan continued to ask: "Then do you know medicinal materials?"

Tong Fang still shook her head and said, "I don't know." Although she didn't know the identity of Aunt Quan, she knew that she was important to stand beside Yuxi.

Aunt Quan asked: "Then what are your plans in the future?" Seeing Tong Fang's bewildered expression, Aunt Quan asked directly: "Are you planning to remarry?"

Sister Quan's question was a little strange, but Yuxi didn't make a sound, because Yuxi knew that there must be a reason for Sister Quan to do this.

Tong Fang shook her head and said, "I haven't reconciled yet. But after reconciling, I don't want to marry again." No one knows how cold Xiang Weiguo is to her, and he doesn't touch her a few times a month. At first she only thought that Xiang Weiguo was indifferent, but later Yan's appearance let her know that Xiang Weiguo was not indifferent but looked down on her.

The difficult environment in Yucheng resulted in commoner women being basically the same as Tong Fang, with dark and rough skin. Tong Fang was not an ugly girl in Yucheng, and her appearance was average. However, there are more men than women in Yucheng, so women have greater freedom and choices. For example, remarriage of couples and widows in Beijing is criticized, but not in Yucheng. Because there are too few women and life is difficult, women will basically choose to remarry after widowhood. This kind of environment also made the women in Yucheng more sturdy. And Tong Fang also has the characteristics of a woman from Yucheng. Because of her pregnancy, she endured Yan for the sake of the child, but after the child was gone, Xiang Wei still favored Yan, so she didn't want to bear it anymore.

Mother Quan asked: "You are still young, you are only seventeen or eighteen years old this year, it is not difficult to remarry." As long as Tong Fang is not picky, it is not difficult to find a family.

Tong Fang smiled bitterly and said, "I'd rather be alone than remarry." Although she made up her mind to leave Xiang Weiguo, the shadow of this matter was too deep for her. If the person who remarries is similar to Xiang Weiguo or even disgusting, then she really can't survive. Instead of this, it is better not to marry and live alone.

Aunt Quan looked at Tong Fang and responded to her words without any hesitation, plus Tong Fang's firm attitude, she knew that Tong Fang had really made up her mind: "Give you two days to think about it, and the next day Get back to me."

Tong Fang looked at Aunt Quan with some puzzlement, and then at Yuxi, not knowing what was going on now. She just came to work, and it has nothing to do with whether she wants to remarry. Thinking of this, Tong Fang suddenly understood that the condition for entering the palace was that remarriage was not allowed. Tong Fang hurriedly said to Yuxi: "Princess, I will not remarry, I will work in the mansion with peace of mind."

Yuxi laughed, and said: "Whether you want to remarry in the future is your private matter, you decide for yourself, and it has nothing to do with your entering the palace."

Aunt Quan said: "This has nothing to do with the princess and the palace, it's what I mean. If you don't want to, I won't force you." Seeing Tong Fang's puzzled look of wanting to ask but not daring to ask, Aunt Quan said: "I want to take you as an apprentice, but the prerequisite is that you are not allowed to remarry." Tong Fang has no foundation at all, and it will not take a short time to learn her skills. If she remarries, she will definitely not learn well.

Yuxi was very surprised, and couldn't help but glanced at Tong Fang again. She didn't think Tong Fang was special, why she was taken by her nanny. Yuxi didn't want to let Nanny Quan's talents go to waste. In the past two years, she has selected many people to show to Nanny Quan, but no one has attracted her attention.

Seeing that Tong Fang still wanted to speak, Aunt Quan waved her hand and said, "Go back and think about it carefully, and give me an answer later." If she made an impulsive decision and later regretted it, it would be a waste of her efforts.

Tong Fang went out full of doubts.

Yuxi asked strangely: "Mother, this Tong Fang can't read or write medicinal materials, why do you want to take her as an apprentice?" If you want to learn medicinal diet, you must first learn pharmacology, and it is impossible to learn pharmacology without being able to read.

A look of remembrance appeared in Sister Quan's eyes: "She looks very similar to an old friend of mine." As for the identity of this old person, Sister Quan didn't say anything.

Yuxi is not a curious person, so she didn't continue to ask: "Mum, if Mrs. Tong is not going to remarry, do you really accept her as an apprentice? Her conditions are too poor, and it will be difficult for you to learn from her if you accept her as an apprentice." Good." The biggest problem is not being able to read and understand medicinal materials, the biggest problem is that Tong Fang is too old, she is seventeen years old, and the best period for learning has passed.

Mother Quan said: "How much you can learn is how much! If you really can't learn, then forget it." If Tong Fang was not too similar to her old friend, she would not have accepted her as an apprentice. Teaching apprentices is too tiring.

Yuxi understood what Madam Quan meant. It would be best for Tong Fang to have this qualification, and if she doesn't have this qualification, she won't force it, and everything will come naturally.

ps: I didn't get home until after five o'clock today, so tired. Take a day off tomorrow and add more the day after tomorrow. (to be continued)
