Chapter 62 Going to school
Gao Ju entered the east side hall, put the brocade box on the cabinet, and then sat down on the sandalwood carved arhat bed, and swept the palace maids and eunuchs in the hall with cold eyes, "Okay, okay, it's great, what a group of loyal slaves from Fengyi Palace."
The palace maids and eunuchs were obedient and knew that the little master was dissatisfied with them, so they hurriedly knelt all over the ground. However, they did not think there was anything wrong with revealing the little master's whereabouts. The person who asked the little master was not someone else, but that was the little master's biological mother. No matter how this mother did, she would not hurt her son, so she told the queen truthfully about the whereabouts of His Highness the prince. There was no problem.
This is the common idea of the palace maids and eunuchs. Song Taiping, an old eunuch who has served Gao Ju for more than five years, told me that it was said, "The Empress is a behavior of concern for Your Highness. Your Highness should understand the Empress's kind mother's heart."
Gao Ju sneered a few times, caring or surveillance? He knew in his heart that it was not yet time to turn against Empress Zhao, and he could not seriously pursue these people's responsibilities, and said lightly: "Okay, get up, let's not take the example."
The palace maids and eunuchs were busy responding.
Gao Ju knew that they were right and wrong, and felt helpless and fell backward on the Arhat bed. He had to speed up his movements and cultivate his confidant, otherwise he would have to be controlled by Queen Zhao and said: "Song Taiping, Xiao Wuzi, Tan Yun, Xiangqi stayed, and everyone else went out."
The named one stayed in the east side hall, and the others bowed and retreated.
Gao Ju lay on the couch, remembering what Zhao Hou said before, his brows were deeply locked. The adoptive father's current official rank is indeed too low, which will have an impact on Xiao Jiumei's future choice of husband. Xiao Jiumei is the daughter of her mother and he has to take care of her. The girl is relying on her father and brother at home. Shen Baimi and Shen Baiyu are still young and cannot enter the court to become an official. Only by promoting her adoptive father to become an official in Beijing, can she become a successful person, and her status can be improved accordingly, and her family can have a daughter and a hundred families.
Tao had no idea about Gao Ju's thoughts. If she knew it, it would inevitably stop her. She did not want Shen Muke to be promoted and return to Beijing to become an official. If her two sons were not too young and could not support her, she would wish that Shen Muke would die outside and never meet each other. Moreover, she would not marry her daughter into the so-called high-ranking family, and she would never let her suffer as much as her.
With such thoughts, Tao naturally would not force Shen Danxia to learn this and that. This made Shen's mother very dissatisfied, especially since she had such high expectations for Shen Danxia, she pointed to Tao's nose and scolded: "Nine girls are not young anymore, you just let her play all day, what do you think? From tomorrow, let her go to the Xie family's boudoir to go to school. I don't ask her to be like the Xie family's daughter Meng family, and at least she knows a few words and will not be blind, making people think that the Shen family's daughter is ignorant."
When the great-grandson was there, the Shen family also held a boudoir school. After the old man Shen died, he wanted to maintain filial piety for three years, so he fired several gentlemen. After the filial piety period expired, the Shen family did not have so much financial resources to run a boudoir school, but Shen's mother and Mrs. Xie had secretly fought since she was young and refused to bow their heads on this matter. Instead, she hired a gentleman to set up a yard to teach the girls. Because Shen's mother had higher expectations for Shen Danxia, she had to focus on cultivating Shen Danxia, otherwise she would not let Shen Danxia go to the Xie family.
"Old lady, Jiu Yatou is literate. The husband who taught her in Lu Tai is an old man from Hanlin. In a few months, the old man will come to Jindu. I think he will send Jiu Yatou to teach him. In these few months, Jiu Yatou will be more relaxed." Tao did not want Chen Danxia to go to any boudoir school. She was afraid that Chen Danxia would be bullied by outsiders.
"Go ahead?" Chen's mother grabbed the teacup and smashed it at Tao. Tao would not stand stupidly like in her dreams and dodge it to the side, and the cup did not hit her.
"I have seen a spoiled daughter, but I have never seen you so cute. If you don't teach a foster daughter, you have never heard of the saying that raising a pig, right? If Jiuyao is just your daughter, I wouldn't bother to care about it, but she is the third daughter of the third child and my granddaughter. I can't let you raise her like this and raise her into a useless person. I have already agreed with Mrs. Xie that she will go to school tomorrow. You don't have to say much, go back and prepare things for her and let her go tomorrow. Did you hear that?" For the future of the Shen family, Chen's mother gave up her face and gave her a generous gift to Mrs. Xie. If Chen Dan didn't go away, wouldn't her face be vain?
Tao knew Chen's intentions and was so reluctant that he said, "I have to go back and ask Jiuer about this. If she wants to go, she will go. If she doesn't want to go, then she won't go." After saying that, he bowed and retreated regardless of Chen's rage.
Mother Chen looked at the shaking curtain, pounded the table, and said in pain: "A kind mother defeats her son, but a kind mother defeats her son."
Tao went back to ask Chen Danxia for his opinion, and Chen Danxia thought, "It's good to go to school, but I'm quite bored at home."
"What if they bully you?" Dow asked worriedly.
"No." Chen Danxia didn't think she had a bad popularity and could not make one or two friends, "Mom, just let me go! Mom, the best and best mother."
"Okay, okay, if you want to go, if you suffer grievances, don't cry." Tao said with a angrily smile.
"Where are you going? I want to go too." Shen Baiyu heard it outside the house and said anxiously.
Tao said angrily: "I don't know where I'm going, so you're in a hurry to follow me. What a stupid boy. I took you out and sold you. What do you do?"
"My mother is reluctant to sell me, I'm not worried at all." Shen Baiyu walked in with a smile, "Mother, where are you and your sister going?"
Shen Bomi followed Shen Boyu and asked Tao for care in a regular manner, looking at Tao with inquisitive attitude.
Tao smiled and said, "The old lady called me over and told you to go to the Xie family's boudoir school. I came back and asked your sister what she meant. Jiuer said she wanted to go, so your sister would go to the Xie family's boudoir school tomorrow. Tomorrow you and I will send your sister over with you."
"It's just a lane, not long. Mom, you don't have to go. I'll just send my sister to you tomorrow." Shen Baiyu said carelessly.
"Mother, why did the old lady suddenly care about her sister's studies?" Shen Bomi thought about the question more deeply.
"Your elder sister will be in mid-April this year." Dow answered the question terrible, but the meaning to be expressed was expressed.
Shen Bomi immediately understood and pursed the corners of his lips. Although he was not happy about Chen's mother's idea of beating her sister, it was not good for her to stay at home all day long. She also asked her to go out to make friends and learn something.
The next day, Tao took Chen Danxia to Xuanziyuan to pay tribute to Chen's mother. Chen's mother told her: "Jiu Yat-tou, this time I sent you to the Xie family's boudoir. You must respect your husband and learn from him well. Don't be lazy, don't quarrel with others, don't..."
Chen Danxia listened obediently. After finally waiting for Chen's mother to finish her sentence, Tao quickly took Chen Danxia back out. The Shen Baimi brothers were already waiting outside the yard. The four of them went to the second gate for a while before the carriage came. Tao carried Chen Danxia onto the carriage. The Shen Baimi brothers helped his mother into the carriage, and then stepped on the wooden scepter to the carriage.
