Equivalent Exchange of Comprehension

"Thank you mother for your concern. My son wants to participate in this year's children's examination, so he is a little impatient. It's my son's fault." Chu Lingxuan smiled softly, a little shy in his smile, but his eyes were full of confidence.

"It's good that Ling Xuan is self-motivated." Mrs. Zhao looked satisfied.But there was a sneer in my heart, the children of the gentry are going to take part in the scientific examination?Has this Chu Lingxuan been praised too much by the husband at home?If he really went, no matter whether he was on the list in the end, he would definitely become an outlier among the gentry, would be considered a person who violated the rules of the gentry, and the gentry would reject him.And it is impossible for the Han clan to accept a competitor from the noble clan.

Even if Chu Lingxuan could become an official in the future, he would not have an ally.

As for becoming a pure minister and taking refuge in the emperor?That's impossible. The emperor doesn't believe that people from noble families will help him sincerely. Even if Chu Lingxuan becomes the emperor's sword in the future, once he is useless, he will definitely end up dead.

Once again imprinting a "carefree" mark on the eldest son of the concubine, Zhao looked at the concubine who had changed a lot.

"Mother Ankang." Chu Minlan saluted a little stiffly. She had only recently learned the rules of etiquette. Although she worked hard and made no mistakes, she couldn't be as elegant and natural as Chu Shulan.

"Minlan, I heard that something happened to you, which caused you to forget all your past. Don't be afraid, Minlan, you are a noble daughter of the Chu family. You just need to learn the etiquette and rules again. Even after you become a monk, the Chu family will still be your backer." .”

Thinking of the things mentioned in the letter, Mrs. Zhao sized up the concubine without a trace, and she really changed a lot. She beckoned Chu Minlan to come to her, and Mrs. Zhao took off the red jade bracelet on her wrist and put it on Chu Minlan. Minlan said, "You are about to get married, you can't be so plain."

It's not about being filial, who is this girl trying to offend?Does it show that she treats concubines harshly?Mrs. Zhao was very displeased in her heart, but she had a standard loving mother's expression on her face.

Chu Minlan was a little dazed, didn't she say that the aunt would do her best to suppress the concubine's children?Why is the aunt in front of her completely the opposite?Pride?No, she encouraged the eldest son of the concubine to take the imperial examination, and gave herself such a precious ruby ​​bracelet to her concubine, with such a kind attitude, she didn't look like the villain of the aunt in the novel at all.

Until she left, Chu Minlan still did not see any bad behavior of this aunt. She told herself to learn the rules and emphasized the importance of rules and etiquette. look?Chu Minlan thought that in some novels, the aunts are not all vicious villains, but also know how to raise the children of the concubines, especially the concubine daughters. Marrying them can win the relationship.

After sending out the concubine's children, Mrs. Zhao wrote down the kind smile on her face, and rubbed Chu Lingfeng who rushed up to hug her dress, "It said in the letter that you chose the "Meditation Jue" , how did you raise it?"

As the mistress of the Chu family, Mrs. Zhao would of course know some secrets that only the head of the family would know.That is a more glorious path, but there are very few people in the history of the Chu family who can walk this path. If her son can have that opportunity, she doesn't mind taking the risk of giving birth at an advanced age to have another son.

"It feels very comfortable." Chu Lingfeng thought for a while, and replied very seriously. He worked very hard to put on the posture of being a son-in-law, but his eyes still showed the expectation of praise.

Zhao's expression suddenly became softer, and he stretched out his hand to rub Chu Lingfeng's little head, but still warned: "Even so, you have to persevere with that Feng'er. You can't be lazy."

"Feng'er knows." Chu Lingfeng nodded vigorously.

"Go back to study." After letting Chu Lingfeng leave, Mrs. Zhao turned to her daughter who was most like her on weekdays, "What the hell is going on with that girl Chu Minlan? And your second cousin Zhao Shou also disturbed her." Are you in?" She looked at her daughter who was nestled in her arms with some confusion, "You have been lukewarm to him since childhood, but you didn't mention the dissolution of the engagement, and now it's like this, what do you think?"

This daughter was taught by her hands, and she put her most trusted maid by her side, so she knew that the accident was Chu Shulan's trick just by hearing the report.

"Mother, the second cousin is not Shulan's good match." Nestled in her mother's arms, Chu Shulan was very at ease, ever since Chu Minlan fell into the water and lost her memory.Her heartstrings were tense, and she wanted to restore everything she had lost.

"Since you think so, then the marriage contract between you is over. Anyway, you are only 15 years old, and the noble daughters of our gentry have enough time to see each other now. When you wait, mother will let you get married in a good manner." The Zhao family no longer After asking more questions, I decided on my own, "When your father comes down, I will discuss with him. I will ask the Zhao family to propose marriage in a few days. It would be better to marry that girl Chu Minlan earlier."

"But mother, is it bad to let her marry me before I'm married?" Chu Shulan is unwilling to discredit the family because of a Chu Minlan. It is her most powerful backer, as long as the family does not fail, no matter who she marries, she can stand up and speak up.

"You are a concubine's daughter, she is a concubine's daughter, you are different." Zhao smiled, the gentry cares about rules and etiquette, but there is a tacit agreement between the aristocratic families, concubine daughters cannot be treated harshly, but that's all, concubine daughters are It is the focus of training, and the marriage between the family refers to the marriage between the descendants of the descendants, especially the eldest daughter is the candidate of many family members.And the Zhao family was originally not happy for her eldest daughter to marry the second son of the Zhao family. There used to be a marriage contract from her father's generation. Now that the marriage contract has been broken, she has to make a good plan for her daughter.

Chu Shulan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that they were different, no matter in the eyes of the aristocratic family or in the eyes of her parents, she and Chu Minlan were completely different. It can be made up for with "partiality", which is the iron law of the noble family for thousands of years.

"It turned out to be my demonic obstacle." Chu Shulan murmured to herself, tears slipped down involuntarily, because of her own stupidity in her previous life, and then she looked at Mrs. Zhao, "Mother, add another brother to me."

"Why are you talking about everything, child?" Zhao blushed a little, but thinking of his son's experience of "Meditation Art", he also felt that he should think about it.

At this moment, a servant girl ran in in a panic, before she even had time to salute, she yelled loudly: "It's not good, madam, eldest miss, the second young master suddenly passed out."
