Chapter 294: Knock on the Door Without Asking Any Questions

In fact, when I was saying goodbye to Old Madam Pei, she also told me about the maids and servants in Qihuayuan and Qizhuyuan.

In the Great Prosperity, these maids and women were like articles, and could be given away at will by the master's family. Therefore, it was normal for the noble families to give maids and women to each other.

But generally these things are arranged by the mistress of the house, and the male family members rarely take care of these things. Rong Jin specifically mentioned this at this time, probably because he was worried that Madam Pei was old and was afraid that she would forget to mention the gift to him, right?

Alas, Rong Jin! Aren't you tired? I know that you are worried that your mother did not take on the responsibility of being the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion, and you are worried that Grandmother Pei is too old to worry about the affairs of the Marquis's Mansion, so you try your best to do everything yourself.

In the past few years, you have been like a clockwork, working hard every day, leading by example, and teaching a group of less capable brothers in the Marquis's mansion, forcing them to study hard and practice their skills, and making them become outstanding. Not only did you discipline your brothers, but you also forced all the girls in the Marquis's mansion to learn various skills.

Are you worried about the servants in the mansion now? You are still young, relax. Don't look at me as young, I am much older than you. Hua Lei nodded and said, "I know, don't worry, Grandmother Pei told me about this. I will ask the maids and the old women for their opinions."

After a pause, he couldn't help but say, "Master Pei, don't worry, I will take care of all these things. The security in Yongningfang is very good, so after I move there, there will be no problem in my new house.

Take good care of yourself, don't work so hard, and take care of your health. The children of the Marquis' Mansion are all very outstanding now, so don't make it too hard on yourself or them. Zhenzhu Feicui Linlang are all very good now, very outstanding, you can rest assured."

Rong Jin's face suddenly turned slightly red. He looked at Hua Lei and explained softly, "I work so hard because I want every child in the Marquis' Mansion to become better. I will shoulder all the responsibilities of the Marquis' Mansion, but they must at least shoulder their own responsibilities.

They may not be able to make any contribution to the Marquis' Mansion due to their lack of ability, but I cannot let them evade their responsibilities, accomplish nothing, and then drag the Marquis' Mansion down in the future.

Especially Rong Yu, as my uncle's eldest son, he was spoiled by my aunt before, he was neither good at literature nor martial arts, and he was a dummy in everything he did, so I was especially strict with him. It doesn't matter if he can't help me, but at least he has to take on the responsibility of the eldest son of the concubine's family. I don't want to clean up their messes.

Now, except for the brothers and sisters of my third uncle's family who are not in the Marquis' Mansion, I am too far away to take care of them, but the cousins ​​from other branches are doing much better now. As long as I persevere, when they come of age, they should be able to take care of their own branches in the future.

As for my cousins, the reason why I require them to learn various skills so strictly is that I hope they can be smarter and more capable, and be able to stand up in their husband's family after they marry. The Marquis' Mansion can be their backing, but it cannot cover their incompetence and stupidity. "

After a pause, he continued, "I don't think my eldest sister and second sister need my concern. Their farm and shop are doing well now. I don't worry about Pearl either. She is doing very well now.

But Feicui has been timid and has no rules for doing things since she was young. If I don't correct her temper and teach her skills, she will have a hard time in the future. If she cries and goes back to her parents' home every other day, I can go to her once or twice to help her.

But it is impossible to stand up for her every time. After all, the Marquis' Mansion must be reasonable. We can't just go to her house without asking any questions just because we are a Marquis' Mansion and our rank is higher than other families."

At this time, Xiaoyuan, who had been sitting on the side and had been silent, suddenly said, "If my sister is bullied by her in-laws in the future, I will go to their house without asking any questions."

Hualei was stunned, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Rong Jin was also startled, with an embarrassed look on his face, "Xiao Yuan, I..."

Zhenzhu smiled and said, "Xiaoyuan, don't worry. Sister Hua is so beautiful and smart, how could she be bullied by her in-laws? Whoever marries Sister Hua must have accumulated virtue for several lifetimes, so you won't have a chance to knock on their door." Rong Jin nodded involuntarily.

Xiao Yuan glanced at Rong Jin and said nonchalantly, "Sister Zhenzhu is right. My sister is beautiful and smart. Apart from her low social status, she has no other shortcomings. It is a blessing for the man to marry my sister. However, there are also people who are unreasonable and do not know how to appreciate.

Because our grandparents are gone and our parents have disappeared, they will think that my sister has no family to rely on and look down on her, and they may abuse her at will. They may also think that my sister is uneducated, can't play chess, piano, calligraphy, and painting, and can't compare with those young ladies from aristocratic families, and they may abuse her at that time.

If that's the case, I'll knock on her door, and if that doesn't work, I'll let my sister get divorced and return home, and find her a better one. No, I won't let my sister marry such a man." Xiao Yuan's voice echoed faintly in the hall, and Rong Jin put himself in her shoes and imagined it, and couldn't help but shudder.

Hua Lei didn't know what to say for a moment. She looked at Xiao Yuan, chuckled and said, "Xiao Yuan, you are still young. You should study hard now. When you grow up, you can think about these things. Besides, it's too early to think about these things."

Xiao Yuan nodded and said to Hua Lei, "Sister, before you get married, you must open your eyes and choose a good one for yourself. We don't need to consider family background, the most important thing for us is the person. If you can live well, that's the best. If you make a mistake and meet a blind or foolish filial person, don't wrong yourself, tell me, I will support you, and then I will take you home in peace."

Hua Lei really didn't know what to say. She didn't even know where her marriage was, but Xiao Yuan was already thinking about taking her home. Wasn't it too early for him to show concern? She nodded randomly and said, "I know, I know."

Xiaoyuan glanced at Rong Jin, turned his head away and stopped talking.

There was silence in the room for a moment.

"Xiaoyuan, don't worry, the things you worry about won't happen." Rong Jin seemed to be promising something. Xiaoyuan looked at him and said quietly, "I only care about the actions."

Rong Jin nodded, looked at Xiao Yuan, then looked at Hua Lei, and lowered his head slightly.
