Daily Life of Jiang Liuniang

   Chapter 851 Everything becomes someone else's

  After Jiang Bai withdrew, Jiang Liu called into Shu Qiu again and instructed, "Let Uncle Ya invite the two stewards of Bantangxiang and Feng Zijin into the mansion."

  After Shuqiu went out, Jiang Muyan put down the book in her hand and discussed with her sister, "Is it a new type of incense and spice? I'll tell them later?"

  Jiang Liu nodded, "Sister knows the inadequacies of the new fragrance better than I do. You should explain it to Feng Zijin; after Feng Zijin leaves, my elder sister will send it to Tan Liang and Xu Binghong, and then tell them..."

   Jiang Murong, who was sitting at the table and choosing patterns, raised his head and saw that Jiang Liu was fascinated. Sixth sister is the youngest sister in the family, but the most capable one. Mother said that the shops she manages have made four or five thousand taels of silver this year. So many silver taels are enough to buy a nice house in Kang'an City. She and her husband have been married for three years, but they can only rent a house in Kang'an City...

After discussing with her sister, Jiang Muyan went into the back room and took out the key. She counted out enough silver taels from the money box left to them by her mother and packed it up. matter.

   Jiang Muyan will send this year's red seal to the stewards later. When Li Zhengqiu comes to pick up Jiang Murong's mother and daughter back to the house, she will not have time to see them off. If we say goodbye today, we will see you next year.

Jiang Murong listened quietly to the third sister and the sixth sister after discussing the shop, and after the third sister left, she slowly looked down at her hand, as if with Jiang Liu, and seemed to say to herself, "As long as I With half the ability of Sixth Sister, she wouldn't live so uselessly."

  I was thinking of sending the fifth sister and the third sister to meet the stewards of the three Huaxiangrong Rouge shops. Jiang Liu, who gave them the red seal at the end of the year, heard the eldest sister muttering to herself, and raised her head to see her lost.

   The eldest brother-in-law will come over later, and the eldest sister will follow her brother-in-law back to Jingshanfang to pack up and prepare to return to Taikang’s ancestral home for the Chinese New Year. The pregnant Qingmei was sent away by her brother-in-law, but the eldest sister's face looked like this, as if she was not just twenty, but fifty or sixty years old. Jiang Liu put the matter of the shop on hold for the time being, and asked the eldest sister, "What are the plans of the eldest sister in the future?"

   What else can you plan? Jiang Murong stared at the auspicious and wealthy flowers in seal script on the table, and replied, "Your brother-in-law is studying very hard. My father said that he will be able to graduate in two years, but it may be a little bit worse. It will take another three years. When he becomes a jinshi, if he can't find a good job in Kang'an, we will go back to Shaoxing."

  Men are in charge of the outside and women are in charge of the house. After a woman gets married, she manages the housework at home and supports the family and the lintel. It is a man's business. So Jiang Liu asked the eldest sister what she planned to do. The first thing she thought of was not herself, but her small family.

  Jiang Liu asked again, "Does the eldest sister still want her brother-in-law to have sons and daughters?"

  If an outsider asked, Jiang Murong would definitely say: She is the daughter-in-law of the Li family, how about letting the concubine spread branches and leaves for her husband. But when Sixth Sister asked, Jiang Murong answered truthfully, "I don't want to, but..."

Jiang Liu waited for a while to see the eldest sister stop talking, and then said, "Then the eldest sister will firmly grasp the brother-in-law's heart, give birth to a few more children for him, and then let He Zhu's daughter-in-law stare at the brother-in-law's concubine and prevent them from giving birth to concubines. Concubine."

Her mother also told her this and taught her many tricks. Now that she was taught by Sixth Sister, who was nine years younger than her, Jiang Murong felt that she was useless. She knew that Sixth Sister didn't mean to laugh at her when she said this. But for her good, he endured the sourness and said, "Okay."

Seeing that the eldest sister was still confused, Jiang Liu couldn't help but said, "Before all these things, the most important thing is the eldest sister herself. The eldest sister must make herself comfortable, eat well, sleep well. You are happy every day, your body It will be good, and the people around you will also be happy. When people are happy, luck will come."

happy? She is married and is no longer a girl. Being a daughter-in-law has many rules, there is nothing to be happy about.

  Jiang felt even more distressed when he saw her like this.

  Not only the eldest sister, but the vast majority of Da Zhou—except the royal princess—women have been taught since childhood to make people around them, including parents, husbands, sons, and even relatives comfortable and satisfied. Only in this way can they be decent and worthy of praise. In order to make others feel comfortable and satisfied, they must learn to be patient and restrained. Women have to endure and endure until their in-laws and husbands are boiled to death, and their sons stand up, so that they can live more gracefully.

   Not to mention others, just take Jiang Liu's sister who has been enlightening for many years. In the eyes of my sister, marriage is not about love, but a battle. This battle will take more than ten years to prepare, and then rush to the battlefield and fight for a lifetime. The opponents in this battle are her husband, her husband's parents, relatives, concubines and servants who want to climb into her husband's bed.

   When the elder sister chooses a well-matched opponent, she will rush up with her soldiers and sufficient rations. Her soldiers were companions, wives, and maids, and her ration was her dowry. On the battlefield of the husband's family, if the elder sister feels exhausted, she will ask her strong backup - her mother's family - to help. In order to make her backup strong enough, my sister has now started training Xiaoyueer.

   This battle, regardless of whether it is won or lost, must be respectable, and it must not be seen as a joke.

   Her mother-in-law, Qinghe, rushed into the Jiang family's battlefield and failed to win her husband's heart, but she used her thin body to support her decency, and no one could single out her fault. Jiang Liu felt that if her sister was defeated, she would be like her mother. But she believes more in her sister's fighting ability - her sister will not lose!

   If one day my sister can't stand it anymore, Daddy, Brother, Jiang Liu and Xiaoyue'er will all rush up and crush each other completely!

   Even if they knew that marriage was a battle, the women who arrived in Dazhou still had to rush into the unfair battlefield. They had to go and there was no way to avoid it.

   There are too many factors that cause this phenomenon, which cannot be reversed by Jiang Liu. She can only try to influence her sisters and let them fight as happily as possible.

   So, Jiang Liu told the eldest sister very, very seriously:

"Liu'er believes that everyone knows how to make themselves happy. Big sister asks your own heart, and your heart must know. Big sister should happily seize brother-in-law's heart and have children happily. If If we can do this, when our five sisters, seven old and eighty, sit together neatly and talk about this life, we will have no regrets and feel that we have not lived in vain." Jiang Liu finally added another harsh sentence, "If we can't make ourselves happy, maybe we will die early like my mother. At that time, everything we have will become someone else's. Our husband will become someone else's, and we will be the children who are spoiled by the baby. If you want to call others mother, if you encounter a vicious stepmother, you can only be trampled on by others!"

   Jiang Murong stared at Sixth Sister's face for a long time, her tears suddenly burst and fell.

   Jiang Liu couldn't hold back, and started crying.

   Thanks for the rewards from book friends such as Suicaihua, Big Eyed Pig, Yunze, etc., and the second one is sent today. I'm working on the draft these days, and for the next small climax, I'll post a piece and give it to everyone, so as not to be ripped off by everyone...
