Chapter 18: Human Heart (Double updates, please collect and vote)
After dinner, Grandma Wu came over and gave Shu Shu her first lesson.
Shu Shu admitted that she was narrow-minded.
Grandma Wu did not start with "men love women," nor did she hide her background and skills in a certain circle in Yangzhou. Instead, she talked about her own experience.
"The old slave's ancestral home is Huairou, and his family has been making wine for generations. When the old slave first got married, he received a rich dowry. Xu Zi's son was a farmer-student in the same village. The two girls were wealthy and handsome, and they were as good as honey mixed with oil. They gave birth to a pair of children...
After the Eight Banners entered the customs, the clans enclosed their land, most of the land in the capital became official villages, and most of the people became tenant farmers...
Elderly members of my natal family died of illness one after another. My ex-husband was already a scholar. He used this opportunity to join his old master. He also demoted his wife as a concubine and married a maid as his wife...
At that time, everyone advised Lao Nu to admit it, but Lao Nu didn’t accept it. He could get promoted by relying on books, but couldn’t I?
At that time, Emperor Shunzhi also admired Sinology, and the female relatives of the bannermen learned to speak Chinese and recognize Chinese characters. The old slave took refuge in the name of the mistress, and divorced her ex-husband with a dowry...
In the mistress's companionship, she chose the current man as her husband...
Even though they are a couple halfway through their lives, there has been no stumbling in their lives for fifty years.
However, even if he had his parents and brothers as his backers, he would not dare to offend the orphan girl, the old slave. In addition to the fact that the old slave had given his wife a big breast, he was somewhat respectable in the house, and because the old slave had no shortage of money, the house purchased by the family was full of money.
In the name of Lao Nu, the love between husband and wife is just the icing on the cake. It doesn't mean that you can't live without the man, whether you live apart or get together again, there is nothing unacceptable...
What about the love between husband and wife, the relationship between children, as long as there is no shortage of money, they can both respect each other...
But we can't be taken advantage of, thinking about flesh and blood...
You must know that these people's hearts are raised, it is better to draw a line early...
Always put yourself first, which is the real way to preserve yourself...
Don't think about asking for perfection. The more you ask for it, the more you ask for it, but the more you ask for it, the less it will be...
The old slave’s two children from his ex-husband are a lesson from the past...
I used to think they were pitiful and wanted to take them with me to teach them, but at that time they were wealthy and looked down on the old slave's cousin...
The old slave will not force...
Until now, we are all filial sons and virtuous grandchildren...
But the old slave also understands that they are all here for money...
Come on, come on, no one is a saint...
As long as you can live with your face, you should be able to make yourself happy and don’t have to be harsh..."
The old man spoke slowly and slowly, but Shu Shu listened with admiration.
You must know that there was a winery under Jueluo's name before, but it was closed down after the emperor issued the "Prohibition Order" a few years ago.
It seems that the recipe used is from Grandma Wu’s family.
If it were an ordinary woman, experiencing the decline of her natal family, her husband's change of heart, and devaluing his wife as a concubine, she would probably end up depressed, but Grandma Wu refused to admit defeat and always had her own trump card.
There are many calculations such as "borrowing strength", "fake the power of a tiger", "preparing for a rainy day", etc., but the initiative is firmly in one's own hands.
"The so-called parents-in-law are not parents... Back then, the old slave's parents-in-law wanted to collect my dowry as soon as I entered the house. They kept saying, 'A sister-in-law is like a mother'. They wished they could push all the marriage funds of my brother-in-law and sister-in-law onto the old slave...
Just to bully my new daughter-in-law, who is too tender-faced to refuse, the old slave borrowed law books from the bookshop and came back, urging her ex-husband to copy the books day and night. Taking up the responsibility of the 'eldest brother', he also took the initiative to teach my sister-in-law embroidery, teaching her step by step.
Her way of being a woman...
Perhaps because of the deepening of the rift, they later supported their son in marrying another woman, and finally ended up with a domineering eldest daughter-in-law who was 'like a mother', who also 'seeked benevolence and received benevolence'...
There is no need to take these idle people to heart, there is no need to be angry with these idle people, they are just irrelevant people...
When it comes to the in-laws later, everyone is polite and respects each other. No one is good to anyone and the rules are..."
Shu Shu became more and more awe-struck.
Maybe some people are born with good fortune, while some people earn it through hard work.
It seems that she misunderstood Jue Luo. What she wanted to teach her through Grandma Wu was not the game between men and women, but an attitude towards dealing with things.
You must be self-reliant and self-reliant at all times, and don’t wrong yourself.
The next day, Shu Shu came up to Jue Luo and said with some sadness: "Eni, you and Ama both need to be well... You need to take Ping'an pulse every month, and you need to take food supplements at all times..."
The couple had been married for many years before they had their eldest daughter. Now that they are in their forties, they are sometimes worried that they will not be able to rely on their daughter.
Jueluo Shi gently hugged Shu Shu and touched her back: "Enie knows your temperament. You look peaceful and have the best temper... If you don't want to be angry, you can't rely on anyone, but you don't need to show your sharpness... There are some success stories.
Just remember it in your heart, there is no need to imprint your wisdom on your face... Many diseases are caused by anger. Apart from life and death, there is nothing that cannot be solved..."
Shu Shu sighed in his heart, it was not her who was afraid of marriage now, but Jueluo Shi. This was the disadvantage of "marrying a girl from a high family".
"Don't worry, Enie, I will live a good life..."
Shu Shu said solemnly as she smelled the increasingly rich sandalwood fragrance on Jueluo's body.
When she returned to the room, Shu Shu took out her notepad.
Before worrying about the direction of "Kowloon seizing the legitimate son", you should still learn to be a "qualified" Jiufu Jin.
The first impression is very important. I had a lawsuit with Guidan before and had a tit-for-tat confrontation with Guo Luoluo, which seemed to be too sharp-tempered.
Next, it’s time to show Shouli’s softer side.
The dowry can be reduced!
Regardless of the rank or title, the ninth elder brother is inferior to the eighth elder brother. The reduction of his dowry is also a sign of respect for his elder brother and sister-in-law.
As for the Guo Luoluo family, Guidan is a bastard, but he is heartless and not vindictive, so he is easier to coax.
The Guo Luoluo family are not fools, but there is no need to worry. They are the only ones flattering me because of my identity. When the time comes, I will share some of the profits from the tea business, which will comfort me.
Shu Shu made adjustments and felt at ease.
I never expected that I would see real "knowledge" that night.
"Is there anything that men can learn that women can't learn? Couples fighting at the end of the bed and fighting at the end of the bed. The old principles that have been passed down for thousands of years cannot be wrong...
It's a couple's fun to behave well in front of others, but how to make trouble in the back...
Men? They all have a sacrificial nature. If you don’t satisfy him, there will always be someone who will satisfy him...
The reconciliation of yin and yang is the way of heaven. If you can't reconcile it, you can only find someone from outside...
When it comes to the physical strength of men and women, men seem to be stronger, but women have endurance...
It is very easy to torment him without any external intentions..."
For the second time of "teaching" by Grandma Wu, only Shu Shu and Grandma Qi were left, while Xiao Chun and Xiao Tao were sent away.
Shu Shu took the small box from Grandma Wu and listened to Grandma Wu's words, knowing that this was the real deal.
A set of slightly rough porcelain, each consisting of two small figures, no more than the size of a thumb, but the details are in place.
Some postures are common, and some have only heard of names, which are a bit juggling.
"These two positions are for women, and they are very easy to conceive... These positions make it difficult for the uterus to implant, so they can be used for contraception... This kind and this kind are mostly men's efforts, so they can go first... The following ones are
There are two ways. If a man is not strong enough, he can turn back to the guest..."
Grandma Wu still looked kind and spoke slowly.
Grandma Qi listened with a serious face, looking at the meaning, she wanted to remember every word in her heart.
Shu Shu realized later that the image of Brother Jiu appeared in his mind, and his face suddenly turned red, not out of shame, but out of embarrassment.
This kind of private matter should not be discussed as a topic, right?
This... this... this...
Don't take it so seriously...
Aunt Wu and Aunt Qi looked at each other, only to feel comfortable.
Aunt Wu smiled and said: "It's not a bad thing to listen to this more...it will save you the time when you are scared and hurt, and you don't have to worry about this anymore..."
Aunt Qi also tried to persuade her sincerely: "To put it bluntly, this is the only thing between men and women... If you are really annoyed by this, your life will not be warm... Although my legitimate wife Fujin does not need to be infatuated, but
The young man is new to this. It is easier to have sex between a husband and wife than between a husband and a concubine... A husband is a husband within one foot of his husband... Regardless of whether the relationship is to his liking, the young master has to be with her until she is born.
A son and a half-daughter, if you don’t think so, it’s not rare… The emperor proposes marriage, and Gege’s status is stable. As long as you relax and don’t think too narrowly, it’s not difficult to live a happy life…”
Shu Shu felt extremely embarrassed, but she didn't want to be too different, so she nodded shyly.
After the two nuns went out, Xiao Chun and others came in, with a bit of uneasiness on their faces.
Shu Shu saw Xiao Chun, who knew how to settle accounts, Xiao Song, who knew how to massage, Xiao Tang, who knew how to cook, and Xiao Tao, who knew how to comb hair. They all followed her since they were children and gave their names to them.
Although she had no memory of her previous life at the time, she was obviously afraid of death and took the names of trees that symbolize longevity.
These four people are one to two years older than her, and they are all just right for Zhenghua, especially Xiao Tao, who is particularly good-looking, with bulging breasts, as delicate as a peach, and a soft personality.
Shu Shu personally trained these Crystal People, and naturally had no intention of letting them marry each other, so she had to say it first: "I told you earlier that I don't need to marry... It means before marriage, but now
This is what I mean... From now on, even if I want to take a concubine, I can choose one from the Eight Banners’ beautiful women, or from the Internal Affairs Bureau’s beautiful women, but I won’t recommend you. You have been with me for two years, and you want to marry someone else.
, or you want to choose someone in the mansion, it’s up to you..."
Xiao Chun and others immediately knelt down.
"Don't worry, Master, as long as you have such evil thoughts, your slave will only suffer a bad death and be a prostitute for the rest of your life!"
Xiaochun was the most loyal. He said harsh words and looked at the others with suspicion.
Xiaosong frowned and said: "Anyway, I have made up my mind to groom myself... What good is a smelly man? I don't want to leave Gege..."
Xiaotang said nothing, his gaze fell on Xiaotao like a knife.
Seeing her like this, Shu Shu's eyes also fell on Xiao Tao.
Xiaotao's face turned pale with shock, and she kowtowed quickly: "Gege, slave girl... I don't dare to have such an idea... My family just said it, I never dare to have such thoughts..."
After Shu Shu heard this, her heart sank.
If a family member has such thoughts, this person is in danger.
However, Xiaotang usually protects Xiaotao the most, but now he takes the initiative to expose this matter, which shows that he is very angry.
Both Xiaotang and Xiaosong lost their mothers, and both died during childbirth, not when they were born, but when their younger siblings were born. They had already remembered the incident at that time, which obviously left a shadow.
Xiaosong believes that pregnancy is the original sin and that it is dangerous to get married and have children.
Xiaotang, on the other hand, hated her mother even though she was still alive, so she went to her aunt who colluded with her brother-in-law to fill in the house. She blamed her mother's death on her adulterous father and aunt, and especially hated the affair between men and women.
Shu Shu did not have an attack immediately.
After all, this kind of thought is ordinary. In the eyes of the servants, the prince's intercourse is no less than becoming rich and powerful. The whole family can change their destiny. What is the relationship between master and servant?
Regardless of whether Xiao Taosheng had this idea, it was not appropriate to follow him into the palace.
