Chapter 1272 Going to Ouyang’s House
Xu Zhaoming analyzed it in detail with Xu Ling, and finally asked: "Do you understand what brother said?"
He added: "To put it bluntly, it's very simple. You can take revenge if you want to, but you can't attack an elder in public. This will only make you lose your sense and be criticized. You have to stand your ground and abide by the rules before you can take revenge." If you take revenge, you can keep your reputation."
During this period of time, Xu Zhaoming was taught by Mr. Xu, and he learned a lot. He would not ask Xu Ling to be patient, but would only teach her to take revenge when he took advantage of her.
Of course, if Xu Ling is unreasonable, he can't deliberately seek trouble.
Mr. Xu was very pleased. This boy Zhaoming had really made a lot of progress, and all his efforts were not in vain.
Xu Ling was stunned for a long time, and finally nodded and said: "I understand."
"Now that I understand, my family is going to send you to live in Zhuangzi for a while, are you willing?" Xu Zhaoming asked again.
Mrs. Zeng became anxious after hearing this: "Zhaoming, your sister already knows that she was wrong, why do you still want to send her to Zhuangzi? Is there anyone like you who is an elder brother?"
After all, I still want to send the spirit girl to Zhuangzi, because I want to make her angry to death, right?
Xu Zhaoming did not answer, only looked at Xu Ling and asked again: "Sister Ling, my brother wants to send you to live in Zhuangzi for a while, are you willing?"
Xu Ling raised her head, looked at Xu Zhaoming, then glanced at Mr. Xu timidly, and finally nodded: "Yes, yes~"
When I said the last word, I choked up, obviously feeling aggrieved.
Xu Zhaoming was very pleased, looked at her and said: "Sister Ling, don't be afraid, my brother will personally take you to Zhuangzi in Hukang County, and then clear out the people in Zhuangzi, and won't let anyone with a short eye rush into you. .”
Then he said: "You got into trouble, and the ladies in the county will definitely talk about you for a while. If the family doesn't punish you, then the entire Xu family will be laughed at for being unruly. And if they see you After being sent to Zhuangzi, they will feel that you can still be saved and taught, so they will not slander you too much. When you come back, come and apologize to Mrs. Jiang, the county magistrate's wife, and the noble aunt, and your reputation will be ruined. If it can get better, this matter will change."
"You still want to apologize to Mrs. Chen?" Xu Ling still hated Mrs. Chen in her heart and didn't want to apologize to Mrs. Chen.
Xu Zhaoming nodded: "Well, this happened because of Mrs. Chen. As a junior, you can only get a good reputation as a magnanimous and sensible person by bowing your head and apologizing to her. This apology is not made to Mrs. Chen, but with I’m here to buy you a good reputation, do you understand?”
Although Xu Ling was not very smart, she understood what Xu Zhaoming said. After a moment of silence, she said: "I understand. I will listen to my brother."
"Ling girl!" Madam Zeng felt extremely distressed and rushed over to her and said, "No, let's not go to Zhuangzi and go back to the south of the Yangtze River with mother. Mother will find you a good and noble marriage!"
Xu Ling smiled: "Mom, my daughter has been hearing this from you since she was ten years old. Now several years have passed, where are the good relatives of the nobles? You don't have to lie to your daughter. How can the real nobles like us? With a family like this? Do you really want your daughter to be a concubine? But a good concubine from a noble family is not that easy to make."
The daughter of the bookstore owner next door to her shop was to be a concubine for a wealthy man from a wealthy family, but she was not even considered a good concubine. When she entered the house, she had to sign a deed of sale, and only after she signed the deed could she be carried in as a concubine.
They look very beautiful, and their mother-in-law's family often accuses them of being in-laws with a certain aristocratic family when they go out, but do the government or the aristocratic family take them seriously?
It can only scare the ignorant common people.
Mrs. Zeng choked up when she was asked. She knew that in front of aristocratic families who value their family status, wealthy families like the Xu family in the county were nothing at all, but what parent didn't want to find a good and prominent marriage for their children? ?
"Dad, please say something." Zeng was still unhappy and asked Uncle Xu for help.
The uncle of the Xu family waved his hand and said, "Just listen to dad and Zhao Ming."
When Mrs. Zeng saw that her husband-in-law agreed, she felt even more heartbroken. She hugged Xu Ling and cried loudly: "Girl Ling, my mother is suffering from such a hard life."
After she finished crying, Xu Zhaoming said: "Mom, get up and go pack Sister Ling's things. I will send her to Zhuangzi in the afternoon."
Zeng had no choice but to cry and pack Xu Ling's things.
She wanted to follow Xu Ling to Zhuangzi, but Mr. Xu stopped him and said, "Humph, you are so partial to Ling girl. If you go to Zhuangzi with her and are not allowed to continue doting on her in Zhuangzi, how will she suffer?" Have you changed your lesson?"
Ling Yatou's unruly temperament cannot be changed without suffering.
Mrs. Zeng could only send Xu Ling out of the house in tears, and then took the nanny beside her to Xu Ling, for fear that she would suffer a little injustice.
The news that Xu Ling was sent to Zhuangzi soon spread in the county. Everyone laughed at Xu Ling, but the ladies who knew about it felt that the Xu family did the right thing.
The pampered young lady from a rich family is always a bit unruly, but as long as she knows her mistakes and can correct them, she can still be wanted.
Xu Zhong also heard about Xu Ling being sent to Zhuangzi. She wanted to see Xu Ling off, but in the end she held back... The aunt and Xu Ling were still angry. She went to see Xu Ling off at this time, even though it was Even good intentions will be hated by the aunt and others, so it is better to stay honest.
Lu did not go to see Xu Ling off, but just said to Xu Zhong: "Girl Ling was delayed by them. I hope she can correct her temper this time. Otherwise, if she is not good in the future, you sisters will They will also be affected."
The granddaughters of the same grandfather, and their families are not divided into separate families. One is prosperous and the other is destitute.
…
Gu Jinli had no time to care about Xu Ling's gossip. At this moment, they were riding in a mule cart on their way to Ouyang's house.
"The date Third Sister chose for the banquet is really good. August 12th separates Brother Dexing's engagement ceremony from August 15th. It allows us to have time to go to the banquet and also give Mr. Ouyang a gift by the way. It's a formality." Gu Jinli held the invitation in his hand and said to Gu Jinxiu.
This invitation was sent not long after the opening of Doou Bank, but the date for the banquet is today.
Gu Jinxiu nodded and said with a smile: "Well, this day is indeed chosen well."
Luo Huiniang also came and asked after hearing this: "Both Ouyang girls are from the capital. Are the rules very strict? I heard Brother Wang said that they even have a fixed number of mouths to chew. I will follow you later. When they eat, do we also have to chew it dozens of times before we can swallow it?"
Then he said: "Oh my God, if you chew it dozens of times before swallowing it, how can you eat it?"
It's almost like eating rice cereal fed to a child, it makes me feel sick just thinking about it.
Gu Jinli smiled and said: "Just listen to Brother Wang's nonsense. That kid always talks in a big way. How can anyone chew a meal dozens of times? If you chew a dozen times and then swallow it, others can still count you. How many times does it take to chew it?”
How many people have so much free time?
