Chapter 16 Give me a pillow if you feel sleepy

Originally, my mother was planning to open a few shops, so that she could earn some income slowly. However, the world is in chaos now, so it is more convenient to save gold so that she can carry it with her wherever she goes.

As for the other jewelry, if mom is pregnant with a boy, I will leave them all to you.

If it's a girl, you two sisters will share it equally."

"Oh, by the way, there is a small box here that contains your monthly allowance. Although it is not much, it still contains quite a bit.

This cannot be divided equally. It was originally your monthly interest, but now I'm leaving it with mother because you're still young. When you're older, mother will give you the monthly allowance.

You can buy whatever you want then?

But forget it now, just leave it with me first!"

"it is good."

"Logically speaking, judging from the situation of the Gu family, whether it's the concubines or the young ladies like you, they should all be accompanied by a few maids and old women, but the situation outside is very chaotic right now.

For safety reasons, the first wife listened to the Sheng family and decided it would be better to keep a low profile.

After all, there are a lot of spies out there. Although no one in the Gu family works in the government or serves in the army, we still have to be careful.

As for the servants living downstairs, they are all elders of the Gu family. They came here with us from Hai City, so there is no need to worry too much.

This way, you children would be wronged. Fortunately, after the eldest wife took over the family, everyone did not suffer any loss in terms of monthly salary.

Even though there are fewer people at home now and I rarely go out, I will still give what I owe.

As for the concubine, or the young master or young lady, if they want to buy something that is not available at home, they will have to pay for it themselves."

"what?"

"what?

what?

It's not like that with the wealthy family. You have to know that the Gu family is doing very well now. Some families, because they moved here in a hurry, found excuses to cut off their monthly payments even if they had money.

It’s already pretty good that everyone in our family can get a monthly stipend.”

"Oh!"

“How about mother telling you again and again that the first wife is a better person?

To be honest, if it weren't for the kindness of the eldest lady, your mother's savings might not be enough to cover your frequent illnesses in recent years and the money for medical treatment and medicine.

Is this why?

The reason why mother told you to respect the eldest wife is also because of this, and we don’t compete for favor with your third concubine or even Xiaoqi.

In fact, the family business can be maintained entirely by the first wife.

But as for your father, to be honest, it’s not that I look down on him, but I simply don’t have the ability.

Although the eldest wife also has some purposes, as long as she does not harm us for the time being, it is better than anything else.

As for your future marriage, it is too early to consider it now. After all, you are still young, so you might as well take care of your health now."

"it is good."

I really didn't expect to see so many gold bars and hear such things.

Although there are many questions, now is not a good time to ask them.

Another thing is, for such a young child, he was talking about marriage too early, and before I could react I heard it again.

"Oh, Xiaojiu, I forgot to tell you that from now on, you may not be able to sleep in every morning anymore!"

"what!

why?

What can you do without sleep? "

“What can I do?

There are so many things I can do. Actually, I don’t want to do it for your sake, but for your health, I still think it’s better to follow the doctor’s advice?”

"suggestion?

Any suggestions? "

Nothing?

Starting tomorrow morning, get up early every morning and exercise with your eldest brother and the others."

"Oh!

It turns out to be exercise!

So, mom, are you tired of exercising?"

“How can I not be tired? But your body is weak to begin with, so you don’t need to worry too much at the beginning. I’m sure Master Wu won’t ask too much of you.

As for the future, we will definitely have to follow the doctor's or Master Wu's opinion."

"Oh, that's good, that's good. I thought you were going to do boxing every day like big brother?"

"I don't really understand what's going on, so I'll just listen to Master when the time comes!

But for your health, Xiaojiu, let's not be afraid of hardship or fatigue, otherwise, you will have to drink bitter medicine again?"

"Don't take the medicine, don't take the medicine, it's bitter!"

"Since you know it's hard, you'd better persevere. When you get better, you won't need to take medicine anymore."

"Oh!

Just stick with it, anything is fine as long as you don’t take the medicine.”

"That's right. It's getting late. I'll take you back to your room to sleep. Leave these things with me for now.

Although not many people usually go to your place, you are young after all, so it is not impossible for them to rummage through your room, and you have no way to stop them.

But here, the outer door is usually locked, and you usually stay in your room, so most people don’t dare to pass through your room to my room.”

"Oh!"

Anyway, now we have a basic understanding of the situation at home.

As for what’s happening outside, we’ll talk about that when the time comes. Even if you can’t go out normally, can’t you still read the newspaper?

There needs to be some reason when the time comes. There is no rush, just take your time.

The most important thing now is to take good care of your body and exercise well. This is more urgent to avoid getting sick easily.

I originally planned to find a reason to find a martial arts master for myself.

After all, all the boys in the family have learned martial arts, but now it seems that there is no need at all.

There is no need to mention it yourself, it has been arranged.

This is really great, but when I showed up on the first day, I discovered...

I actually became the only girl in the Gu family who followed Master Wu to train.

That’s right, nowadays, families with wealth and status all raise daughters.

For a girl like me who follows Master Wu, unless there are special reasons, there is no way she would let her children suffer this.

Even if there is, it is probably due to some other reasons.

But there are probably very few wealthy families like us, right?

After all, everyone's thoughts are still there. Another thing is that no matter whether in the enemy-occupied area or behind enemy lines, there is no regulation that girls must practice martial arts from a young age?

Because of this incident, my seventh sister often laughed at me in private after she found out.

But no matter what the other person says to you, just pretend you didn't hear it.

In fact, what she said the most was that she couldn't wear beautiful skirts or be a lady because of martial arts training.
