When the couple left, they came to the Duke's Mansion. Brother Xing liked Xiao Rui very much. Every time they saw him, they would call him one uncle at a time, which was so sweet. Xiao Rui also liked his children very much. During the Chinese New Year, he would give Brother Xing a large red seal. Sometimes when he got a gadget, he would send him over. Now that he was leaving, he couldn't bear to leave his nephew.

Ji Wan looked at the two of them, but thought of Ji Ping.

Ji Ping is very motivated, busy on weekdays and rarely interacts with each other. Relatively speaking, Brother Xing and the two brothers are not so close. Last time in the Ge Mansion, when Ji Wan heard about Ji Ping and his wife from her sister, although Ji Wan was indifferent, she still took it to her heart.

After all, she was her cousin. She brought them from the countryside to the capital, from the country boy to the military officer, and now that the couple is in a disagreement, she should still do something.

So she called Madam Gu.

Madam Gu was the dowry nanny given to her by Mrs. Xiao. She kept helping her dowry and restrained the maids who served in the house very well. She was Ji Wan's assistant.

"Madam Gu, today I am disturbing you, I want to ask you for help."

Madam Gu said humbly, "Young lady is so serious. You have given me instructions, and I will follow you."

Ji Wan thought for a while and said, "You know that although I entered the Xiao Mansion with my mother, I am still a girl from the Ji family. I have two cousins, like me, who both came from the countryside. My cousin Ji Ping married his wife in his early years and has been seven years since then. She has been harmonious in the past two years, but in the past two years, she has some estrangement. My sister-in-law can't bear the rumor and even took him a concubine. For this reason, my brother is very bored."

She said it simply, but Madam Gu understood it.

"You are very knowledgeable. At the time, we sisters were in Xiao Mansion, and you taught many rules, so I want to trouble you..."

Before she finished speaking, Madam Gu said, "Old slave understands, please rest assured, young lady."

In fact, Ji Wan had long wanted to send someone to give advice to Hu Cui, but Hu Cui was a sensitive person. She was worried that if she did this, Hu Cui would mistakenly think that she looked down on her intentional humiliation. If they hadn't been so terrible now, Ji Wan would not want to get involved in the private affairs of their husband and wife. After all, she was still her relatives in her family, and she had a good relationship with Hu Cui in the past.

Hu Cui and Ji Ping have been together for seven years. She doesn't want them to end up going their separate ways because of some suspicion and misunderstandings. The discord between husband and wife will definitely affect the children, but the whole family will be the one who is the one who is in the family.

Madam Gu went to Ji's Mansion.

Miao was overjoyed when she heard about her purpose.

They are all women, and how can Miao not know the worries of their daughter-in-law? But she herself came from the countryside and didn’t know what the official wife should do. She is Ji Ping’s mother. Others will not think that she is petty and can’t be overwhelmed. She will only praise her for having a good son and being blessed. But the daughter-in-law is different. There are many troubles in the women, especially those official wives, who are idle all day long, like to talk about the right and wrong of others. Hu Cui is also a sensitive and inferior person. After listening too much, he will take it as a real person.

With Madam Gu’s advice, I hope to change Hu Cui’s autistic and inferior personality.

Hu Cui gave birth to another son named Ji Yang the winter of the past year. He was only one year old and didn't know how to walk. Hu Cui is now taking care of his youngest son. Miao took Madam Gu to briefly explain the reason. Hu Cui was surprised at first, then a little nervous and panicked, and didn't know whether it was joy or sorrow.

"Mrs. Don't be nervous."

When Miao left, she took the children and maids away, leaving only Madam Gu and Hu Cui.

"Don't think too much." Madam Gu's eyes were so sophisticated. She could see what Hu Cui thought at first, and said calmly, "When Miss Wan and Miss Rong first came to Beijing, they heard more rumors than you. Especially Miss Rong, since she got engaged with the prince of the Duke's Mansion, the ladies and ladies of aristocratic families have even looked for trouble in person, insulting and slandering. The big family has a lot of specialties, and the two girls have a lot of schoolwork every day, and have to face many doubts and ridicule eyes. You know, Miss Wan can do business, and the nobles look down on businessmen the most. After entering the Duke's Mansion, the population is even more complicated, and there are inevitably rifts between sisters-in-law. Many things are also learned now. You don't need to worry about the gossip of others. You like to slander others behind your back. Either you are not doing well, jealous, or arrogant, arrogant and rude."

Hu Cui was a little surprised when she heard about her two sisters-in-law.

Since she came to the capital, she is actually not used to it. She has no relatives, no friends, and the people she has contacted are all "jacks, tigers and leopards". Her words and deeds highlight her shortcomings.

She was just a rural woman. Before marrying Ji Ping, she never thought that she would be an official wife one day. She never thought that she would stay away from her hometown and come to a completely unfamiliar place and contact a group of completely unfamiliar people.

But unexpectedly, my sister-in-law also encountered such a problem before. That year, when she saw Ji Wan again in the north, she felt as if a fairy concubine came over, with a beautiful appearance and elegant temperament. Where can I look like a little girl in the countryside? The girls raised in the big family have different temperaments. Are they all the official wives?

Low self-esteem has existed in the heart since then.

She knew herself and could never learn to be as dignified and elegant as Ji Wan in her life. What should she do if Ji Ping needed such a wife? After seeing Ting Xue, in contrast, such inferiority became heavier.

She would not help but wonder if Ji Ping keeps such a woman by her side, would she want her to learn from Tingxue? Does he like Tingxue? Hu Cui couldn't stop panic, so she would eagerly make decisions and make Tingxue's face become a concubine. In this way, Ji Ping had a Xie Yuhua who understood him, so she would not see her shortcomings again, and the two of them could continue to live.

After all, she was afraid of losing Ji Ping.

But it was her who pushed Ji Ping to someone else.

Such a contradiction, just like her struggling heart.

Ji Wan was right. When she first learned that Madam Gu was here to teach her the rules, her first reaction was that her sister-in-law also felt that her petty family was disgraceful to the Ji family. Both sister-in-law were both official wives, wandering among the powerful and noble families, and they made friends with maternal ladies from aristocratic families. In contrast, she was really vulgar and vulgar. After listening to Madam Gu's words, she felt turbulent in her heart.

It turns out that behind my sister-in-law's glamorous appearance, she also carries so much bitterness and torture.

"Mum, what should I do?"

As soon as he heard this, Madam Gu knew that this lady was still saved.

"Mrs. Young Master, don't be anxious." Madam Gu showed a kind smile. "First you need to learn to be calm. Don't care about anything others say. Secondly, you must change your own mentality, including your words, deeds, and clothes. Don't lower your eyebrows and eyes, smile, don't flatter, be perfunctory or arrogant. You are still young, don't wear too dark colors, you can wear some bright clothes, and don't make up too thick. You must remember that you are the eldest young lady of the Ji family. Your words and deeds represent your husband and the entire Ji family. You have three children."

After a pause, she said meaningfully, "You don't want your husband to take him out in the future to be a concubine."

Hu Cui trembled all over and subconsciously lowered her eyes.

She really thought about it like this... Tingxue knows a lot, and faces the difficulties and scrutiny of those noble ladies, she will not be as at a loss and as ashamed as she is.

Seeing her like this, Madam Gu knew what she was thinking. She sighed and said solemnly, "You must know that even if a concubine is a concubine, she will never be able to go to the table. Even if she has a child, she can only recognize her mother as her mother. It is even more impossible to take her out to see a guest. That is your responsibility as the wife of the wife. In fact, you should understand in your heart that the eldest young master respects you, so you dare to take him a concubine. But you must know that human nature is the most fickle. Aunt Xue remembers her kindness and is unwilling to compete with you now. But if you blindly tolerate and retreat, it will inevitably not encourage her ambition."

Seeing Hu Cui refuting, Madam Gu shook her head and interrupted, "Ambitions are all raised. Being a maid and being an aunt are different. She used to serve the master, but now she is half a master. If you use your wife as a wife, you will inevitably become accustomed to it over time. At that time, everyone outside will think that she is the young lady of this Ji Mansion. How should you deal with yourself? The second young master is about to marry, so how should you think of you? If you want to wear a crown, you must bear the weight. If you want to protect your husband, you must first protect your identity."

Hu Cui trembled all over.

Madam Gu continued, "The concubines of a wealthy family must also set rules. As a concubine, life and death are in the hands of the mistress. If you don't like it, you can send her away or sell her."

Hu Cui widened her eyes.

"Sell?"

"Yes."

Madam Gu looked at Gu Jing Wubo, "You don't need to have any burden at all. Her life was saved by the eldest master, otherwise it would be a rootless float. You and the eldest master and his wife are one, sharing honor and disgrace, and they cannot be interfered with by the same maid or concubine."

Hu Cui looked at her in a daze and suddenly said softly, "Actually... she doesn't want to."

"Um?"

Madam Gu looked at her in confusion.

Hu Cui looked slightly embarrassed, "She doesn't want to be a concubine, I forced her."

Tingxue was indeed very responsible. She helped her take care of several children with all her heart and strength, but never competed for favor. When Hu Cui said she wanted to carry her as a concubine, Tingxue knelt down, saying that she had never had any delusions and her tone was very firm.

It was precisely this determination that made Hu Cui feel relieved.

Ji Ping didn't go to the snow room, but she was more comfortable and still served her with all her heart as before.

Madam Gu was speechless after hearing this.

"If this is the case, why do you have to force others? She is calm, but if she is resentful, what should she do? Madam, what you have to do now is either let her be a maid or send her away. Now she has not had any other thoughts on the eldest son, and this is the right time. You must know that rumors are like a knife, which is enough to destroy a person's will. Think about yourself! She possesses the title of concubine, but it is in name but not true. How should the maid in the mansion rumor? This is what the old slave said just now, and all ambitions are raised."

Hu Cui's eyes were confused and bit her lip, as if she finally made up her mind.

"I know what to do."

That night, she took the initiative to cook chicken soup and sent it to the study. Ji Ping was a little surprised, and there was a glimmer of light hidden in her eyes.

"A Ping."

Hu Cui hesitated for a moment, and thought of what Madam Gu said, she finally looked up at him, "I want to send Tingxue away."

Ji Ping looked at her for a while, and her nervousness gradually became panic and helpless, and some thoughts emerged in her mind. Did he fall in love with Tingxue, so he couldn't bear it?

The blood disappeared from her face little by little, and she looked at Ji Ping in almost despair.

Ji Ping sighed and held her hand, "Don't do such stupid things again in the future. I said that if you don't want to take a concubine, this sentence will always be valid."

It seemed as if he ascended to heaven from hell, despair faded away, tears were brewing, Hu Cui suddenly threw herself into his arms, choking and said, "No, I will never doubt you again in the future. Sorry, Aping, it's all my fault, I'm afraid..."

Ji Ping patted her back and said gently, "I know everything. I'm wrong, I shouldn't just focus on my future and ignore your feelings. I'm sorry."

"No, it's my fault..."

Hu Cui shook her head and cried, "I'm afraid you will dislike me. I have no relatives and no reason in the capital, only you. I also want to be a qualified wife and a decent official lady, but I don't know anything and don't know anything... I'm afraid I will embarrass you and affect your career, I'm sorry..."

The couple hugged each other and expressed their feelings to each other, finally resolving the estrangement.

On the second day, Ji Ping asked Tingxue to see him off. There was a woman who was better than him everywhere and shook in front of him every day, and Hu Cui would never be as calm as ever.

Madam Gu also lived in Ji's mansion and was responsible for teaching Hu Cui some official wife ways.

She was not here, and Ji Wan was a little uncomfortable for a while. Fortunately, the maids in the house were trained very well by Madam Gu, and they were self-conscious and did not make any mistakes.

May 20th, Goro's wedding was 6th.

The second master has two sons, so even though he is a concubine's son, the second wife did not treat him seriously in the marriage, and even hired him a legitimate daughter from a fifth-rank official family. Although the concubine's mansion in the aristocratic family was not as good as the legitimate son, the scene was still quite large. The relatives and friends in the second house came the most, and there was still a ten-table table.

On the wine table in the inner courtyard, Dou and Ji Wan were biting their ears quietly.

"I heard that our fifth brother and sister, although they are from a scholarly family, have a very warrior temper."

Ji Wan smiled.

"The temper of a warrior?" she raised her eyebrows and joked, "Then you will have a companion in the future."

Dou glanced at her and said, "I'm serious to you. My mother said that my fifth brother is unruly and often jokes with the maids in the house, which is very unconventional. Marrying a strong wife may be able to control him."

Ji Wan remembered the misunderstanding between 6 Goro and Tang Jingxian on New Year's Eve last year. Although it was a misunderstanding, it can also be seen that 6 Goro did have a lot of thoughts.

She would not care much about the second wife's affairs, and her mother-in-law was not a person who liked to gossip behind the scenes. Dou was careless, not liked to talk about people's strengths behind the scenes, but just spoke straightforwardly. Moreover, there were fewer concerns among her sister-in-law and peers, and occasionally they would tell her about the young masters and girls in the second wife.

6 Goro is indeed quite casual and a little unruly. Otherwise, it wouldn't be late at night. He doesn't even bring anyone around him when he gets drunk, and he just teases him when he sees a beautiful maid. Since last year's New Year's Eve, whenever there are any festivals in the mansion, he needs to have dinner with the old lady. Tang Jingxian hid when he sees 6 Goro, for fear of being attracted by this bold and unconventional fifth master.

That look really makes me feel like a little white rabbit hiding from a big bad wolf.

According to Dou's words, this newly-passed fifth young lady is quite domineering. Maybe she can really calm down 6 Wulang with her thunderous means.

Facts have proved that the fifth young lady who had passed by the new family was indeed a bit capable. After the couple gave their parents-in-law tea, they recognized their relatives one by one. Ji Wan could see that the little girl was heroic and a little arrogant. However, her behavior was still generous and decent, so she could only surpass her. Less than half a month after they got married, Ji Wan learned from Dou that Wulang wanted to put the two maids who had served him into the room. That afternoon, the two maids were taken to the front yard by the fifth young lady Duan.

When Dou talked about this, he was full of eyebrows and glamorous, and he felt a little too late to meet.

"The fifth brother and sister looked at the weak, but unexpectedly they had a strong temper and did a good job." She praised her, "Men just can't be too spoiled, otherwise they will only be arrogant and become more and more frustrated."

Ji Wan almost sprayed out a sip of tea that she had put in her mouth.
