Greetings, Ninth Uncle

Cheng Yujin sighed and said, "Okay. Ninth Uncle, let me say something unpleasant. When it comes to Cai Guogong himself, of course, he has made great contributions and is very brave, but when it comes to the prince of Cai Guogong's mansion, it's really... hard to describe. ."

Cheng Yuanjing thought of Zhai Qing and felt the same. A person's ability to manage both internal and external is interlinked. If he has a high-ranking official and a high salary, and is vigorous and resolute, but he can't understand the right and wrong of his family, he can't distinguish between the right and wrong of his wife and concubines, or even can't discipline his son, then this person must have a problem in character and ability. It is true that Zhai Qing was taught that way because of the early death of his biological mother and the connivance of his grandmother, but at the root, it was Zhai Yanlin, his father, who was incompetent.

Although Zhai Qing could not be disciplined because she was doted on by her grandmother, but Mrs. Zhai is Zhai Qing's grandmother, isn't she also Zhai Yanlin's mother? Mrs. Zhai is so indifferent between right and wrong, how can Zhai Yanlin be better. The old man is getting old and emotionally fragile, and he can't bear to criticize children. Could it be that Zhai Yanlin also can't bear it? Madam Zhai looks like she is today, and she can't be separated from Zhai Yanlin.

From the family education, it can be seen that Zhai Yanlin is actually a very arrogant and stubborn person.

Seeing that Cheng Yuanjing had no intention of refuting, Cheng Yujin boldly continued to say: "Children can still be said to be ignorant, but adults can't excuse their children to develop in this direction. I saw Cai Guogong last time and found Cai Guogong. Although he strictly disciplines his son in name, he only beats and scolds him, and he has no patience at all. He even pushes his son's upbringing to the inner house. Mrs. Cai Guogong died last year, and there is only Mrs. Zhai in the inner house. Cai Guogong didn't say anything. The princess of the country is alive, and the prince has become what he is today, isn't it all the fault of the lady of the country?"

Cheng Yujin said these words originally as a test, she observed Cheng Yuanjing's face while she was talking, and planned to change her words as soon as she found something wrong. On the contrary... Cheng Yujin felt that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was still a little happy.

What is there to be happy about? Cheng Yujin was completely bewildered. The person that His Royal Highness planned to reuse, she scolded the other party without knowing the wink, and the prince was actually very satisfied?

Cheng Yujin was incredible, and almost doubted her past worldview. Cheng Yuanjing finally heard the answer he liked, his eyes swept away the sullen anger, and even brought a smile on his lips: "See what you mean, you seem to feel sorry for Mrs. Cai Guogong?"

"It's not a pity, I don't even know Mrs. Cai Guogong." Cheng Yujin pursed her lips and smiled. In fact, she is a very vulgar person. If it has nothing to do with her, Cheng Yujin will not care about the life and death of others, but once her own interests are involved, Cheng Yujin can't bear it. Cheng Yujin's low evaluation of Zhai Yanlin is not because of the general direction of the court, the family and the country, but only because Mrs. Cheng has moved her mind to let her go to Cai Guogong's mansion as a successor.

Cheng Yujin had heard in person how Mrs. Zhai's second wife gave her a lot of demands to her future step-wife. They were guarded by them before they entered the door, who would be willing to serve this group of idiots with high self-esteem.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yujin's mood also fell, she sighed and said, "Dignified Cai Guogong, no matter what, there will be no shortage of a wife. There will always be a young and beautiful official lady who is willing to marry him. I am not as good as others, but in It's ridiculous to be worried about the future princess of the country here."

Cheng Yuanjing put down the tea cup, and when the bottom of the cup fell on the table, there was a clear sound. He narrowed his eyebrows and looked at her solemnly: "Don't belittle yourself."

"I know." Cheng Yujin took a deep breath and quickly laughed again, "Ninth uncle, on the day of my grandfather's July 7th, I met the second wife of the Zhai family when I was at my grandmother's house. Mrs. Zhai's second wife talked about Mrs. Xianji in the chat. The matter of the prince of Cai Guogong's mansion has been decided and will never be changed. Therefore, the future successor must do his best to raise the prince, and not have the mind to compete for the family property. Besides, she must be young, beautiful, virtuous and filial, It has the ability of a housekeeper and the virtue of a virtuous woman. In short, the requirements are very high.”

Cheng Yuanjing was a little curious and asked, "What do you think?"

"Me?" Cheng Yujin looked at Cheng Yuanjing, and gradually became more vigilant, "Ninth uncle, if I said it directly, you wouldn't feel offended, would you?"

"No, I have to go through this step sooner or later, and I will listen to your thoughts in advance."

Cheng Yuanjing's words were straightforward and deliberate, but Cheng Yujin thought that Cheng Yuanjing was referring to the fact that he would also marry a prince in the future, and wanted to know in advance the woman's views on the position of heir, family property, etc. Since it was His Royal Highness who asked the question, Cheng Yujin had no scruples, and said directly: "I think they think too beautifully. They made a lot of requirements for Mrs. Ji, why don't they think about what the Duke's Mansion can offer each other? I hope that wives will be gentle, respectful and thrifty, not arrogant or jealous, but men seek fame and fortune, and women also want something. Women work hard to manage the family business, take concubines for their husbands, and raise children, not just for the enjoyment of old age. Is it the blessing of being an old lady? If you know from the beginning that there will be no return, who is willing to endure it?"

This is the first time Cheng Yuanjing has heard a woman's views on marriage. In his original schoolwork, the Taifu only arranged for him to learn the way of governing the country and the law of being a king. No one ever said how he would manage the back house in the future. It seems that everyone thinks that this is the duty of the Crown Princess. As the crown prince, Cheng Yuanjing only needs to manage the court well. The court is the duty of the crown princess.
