Chapter 1334 How did you become an evil mother-in-law 16
Yan'er looked at her mother and turned around and looked carefully at Qin Gu. "Grandma..." even her voice was soft.
Although she was young, she was introverted and didn't like to talk, both the master and the servants in the back house were talking about grandma's leaving home.
She heard them say that grandma was driven out by grandpa, saying that grandma was a jealous woman, and saying that grandma competed for property with her son for the sake of her own, grandma...
But my mother went to tell her that my grandmother just wanted to change to a new home and live a more free life.
It is said that grandma has worked hard all her life, and everything is what grandma deserves.
Hong Huiyan is over five years old now, but she looks a little pale, her body is thin and weak, and she is timid in her eyes, and she is not as tall as Baoer.
In fact, Yan'er and Bao'er are less than one year apart. Not long after Yan'er was born, Hong Wenyue married Jin and entered the house. It was only five months after entering the house, and Bao'er was born.
"Hey—" Qin Gu responded with a long voice, and a smile appeared on his face.
He put the little girl into his arms and gently stroked the child's hair with his hand like a vine, "We Yan'er is five years old this year, tell her grandma if she wants to study?"
Yan'er looked at Qin Gu - in fact, she didn't spend much time with the client in the past, and every time she saw the client, she would have a face, and people around her said how fierce this old woman was.
Even Baoer said that grandma is very fierce and will slap her palms if she is illiterate, so she is not allowed to eat candy cakes...
But this time she found that her grandmother was not as fierce as they said.
Without saying anything, he turned his head and looked at Ling.
Ling quickly responded: "Mom, Yan'er is still young, and the girl... no, no need..."
Of course, she wanted her daughter to study and read, but the current conditions did not allow it. At the Hong family, she said she would let Yan'er and Baoer study together. After only two days, Wen Yue refused on other reasons.
She couldn't afford to hire a husband at all. If she responded to her mother's words now, wouldn't she just add a burden to her for nothing?
Qin Gu knew the reactions of the little girl and Ling, and made up his mind. When he settled down, he must ask the teacher to teach Yan'er well.
This hour and space are still somewhat different from the feudal society where men are absolutely superior to women. Here, as long as they are divorced, women can also establish women's households, women can also take scientific examinations, and even have female officials in the palace.
There were several well-known female officials in the previous dynasty who did a lot of good things for the court and the people.
However, the society’s positioning of women is to have children and take care of their husbands and children. As for raising children, a woman usually has to have at least four or five children in her life. Giving children in confinement and raising children will take up more than ten or twenty years of the most powerful energy and physical strength in a woman. Moreover, having children and raising children is also a very labor-intensive thing. If not well-maintenance, women will basically be very old when they are forty years old. Men can not only use the time when women give birth to children and raise children to do things, but they will still have a lot of energy when they are forty years old.
This is why most women can only stay in the back home in the end, and when their own people are old, they have to accept their husbands as concubines and willingly manage the back home.
Just as Qin Gu and Ling discussed, the quiet Yan'er suddenly said, "Grandma, if you haven't learned to write, will you hit Yan'er in the palm of your hand?"
The two looked at her at the same time, where were they talking just now?
Why did you say you wanted to hit her palm?
Ling Shi was confused. She never taught her children these things, and she didn't let the servants teach them casually, for fear of taking a piece of white paper out of the way in such an environment. But she could not prevent the adults but the children.
Yan'er is about the same age as Baoer. She has studied together for a few days and the children often play together.
Ling did not react, but Qin Gu immediately understood what the little guy meant.
Qin Gu smiled and said, "Yan'er, do you know why people can become famous in the world and enjoy endless wealth even if they don't have a prominent background? Because they are studying. Only by studying can you truly live a good life and help the people you want to help. The first step in studying is to learn to read. Many people don't have that opportunity even if they want to learn to read, but when such an opportunity is placed in front of you and you don't read well, you will be beaten."
This principle is not profound and difficult for children in their current hours and space.
Yan'er looked at Qin Gu calmly, "Grandma, I understand. I...I will work hard, and I will let both grandma and mother live a good life in the future!"
Qin Gu hugged the child again, and kissed the other person's small forehead with great relief.
…………
Back to the topic just now, Qin Gu asked Ling, she came to see him off, Wen Yue knew it.
Ling said that she had greeted Wen Yue, saying that she was sending the child to her grandmother's house to play, and she came with her child.
Wen Yue frowned and said, since that's the case, you can stay with your mother for a few more days and help her settle everything.
In fact, when it is not involved in your own interests and does not need to do it yourself, as a son, he is still very "filial" - let his wife perform filial piety to his mother on his behalf.
This farm is called Cuipingzhuang, which is more than fifty miles away from Li County. It is next to Cuiping Mountain and a shallow slope next to it. Because there is no river passing by, irrigation is very difficult, so it all depends on the weather for food.
In addition, the soil is very solid and there is a lot of gravel inside, so you can only plant some drought-resistant crops at will. How much you can harvest depends on the will of heaven.
Cuiping Village hired ten helpers, six men with strong laborers, and four middle-aged servants. Except for six who live close to each other, they come to work every day. The other four live in the village with their families.
More than 30 acres of inferior land and the surrounding barren mountains are barely enough for these people to eat and drink, and occasionally send some local products to the Hong family.
The arrival of Qingu surprised everyone. Could it be that the master came to check their farm work? I felt a little nervous. After all, they used to ask the manager to go to the Hong family to report the harvest every year.
In fact, there are still many practical places in private. This time the master came to check it out in person. What if he found out something and fired them?
However, they heard that Qin Gu was divorced from Master Hong and moved here to live.
Will the old lady of the Hong family live in this place in the future?
Their expressions of fear immediately became a little playful.
Oh, it turned out that he was rejected by Master Hong and was driven to the village.
So, if the other party wants to "fire" them, it's better to...
This is the suburb of the county, and the environment doesn't seem to be very good, but the news is not blocked at all.
