Dressed as a middle-aged mistress, I want to lie down every day

The Mo family members that Mrs. Wang came into contact with, including Mrs. He, were all simple people, in her husband's words.

It was a bit surprising to see such a talkative and capable guy suddenly appear.

Seeing Mrs. Mo He's surprised expression, she knew that what Mrs. He did to her son was also an accident, proving that it was not taught by her mother.

Could it be Lord He’s third brother?

Mrs. Wang said, "Hurry up and get up. I heard from your mother that you study very hard. Your aunt is giving you a set of four treasures of the study. You must continue to work hard in the future."

He Shankun kowtowed again before standing up. "Thank you, Auntie. I will work hard. I'm just not as hardworking as my elder brother, but I will follow him and work hard in the future. Auntie, can I go and thank Mr. Nie? He taught my elder brother to read, and my parents are very happy. As his son, I have to kowtow to Mr. Nie."

Mrs. Wang said happily, "No need to kowtow, just bow."

She sent someone to bring He Shankun to the study and said to Mo Chenxi, "Sister, your youngest son is well raised, and your eldest son is also good. Chengping said that Shanluo has a strong tenacity."

Mo Chenxi said modestly, "Sister, you're too kind. My son Shankun has been studying in a private school since he turned six. It's because of the teacher's good teaching. When I brought him back last night, he told me that he was grateful for the teacher's teaching."

Mrs. Wang smiled proudly and said, "Students taught by good teachers are always different. My brother Chengping runs a private school in our area, and he's very selective with his students. If something goes wrong with a student, he can just send them back, even if the student's grandfather comes to plead for mercy."

Mo Chenxi also laughed and said that the teacher his son had taught him was also the same.

Mrs. Wang nodded and said, "Only teachers like this can teach good students, and parents can trust their children to such teachers."

Mo Chenxi felt that He Wenyan was quite reliable in this regard, and that he had chosen a good husband for his son.

Just as I thought of this, my original memory flashed through my mind. The gentleman was found by Mo's father.

Shanluo also studied with this teacher in the past, and later he went to Donglin Academy. That was because the children of officials of the sixth rank and above who failed to pass the entrance examination to the Imperial College could go to Donglin Academy to study.

Mrs. Wang said, "We still have to rely on our fathers for this. We women don't understand it, and we don't know anyone who can do it."

In the past, Mo Chenxi would just smile and not give a direct answer, but she thought that it was the husband that He Wenyan found for her son and even praised him. However, her original body's memory told her that it was not the case.

She was furious at her father's hands-off approach and said directly, "My father helped me find it. Shanluo also studied at this private school before."

After saying this, I felt that I was too quick to speak. Just like what people say, you are so proud to criticize your husband in front of others? Is it an honor for your child to have such a father?

She quickly added, "My master has been busy with official business, so I asked my father to help find it."

Mrs. Wang smiled slightly. Mrs. He's words were full of complaints, and her subsequent explanations were insincere.

This was the first time she heard Mrs. He complain about her husband, but she quickly explained that she wasn't too stupid.

Mrs. He's eldest son and daughter's engagements weren't going smoothly, and her youngest son and daughter weren't even engaged. If she went around criticizing her husband, her mother-in-law, and her sister-in-law, who would be willing to marry their daughter into the He family? Who would be willing to marry her daughter?

The vast majority of wives treat concubines and illegitimate children well for the sake of their children's future, not because they are virtuous.

Because of her brother's affairs, she also investigated the Zhong family. Mrs. Zhong was not on good terms with her mother-in-law, and later she was picky about Zhong Hanlin's concubine. Even if it was her mother-in-law or daughter-in-law who was wrong, who else could judge family affairs?

It is so difficult for her children and grandchildren to find a good marriage.

Now it seems that Zhong Hanlin's eldest daughter married the best, but that was also because the minister was lucky. It cannot be said that he was lucky, but he followed the Queen Mother Wang closely and jumped three levels within ten years. Later, the previous Minister of Revenue suddenly died of illness, and the Queen Mother Wang pushed him up.

Mrs. Wang heard from her junior sister that Zhong Hanlin's eldest granddaughter was once a candidate for the queen, which means that Queen Mother Wang pushed the Minister of Revenue to the position in order to enhance the future queen's status.

She didn't ask her husband about this matter, and even if he did, he wouldn't tell her. She asked her junior sister, who had lived in the capital for many years and knew some things and some people better than her husband.

She asked how many new nobles there were like the Minister of Revenue, from which she could see that the Queen Mother was planning to choose a daughter-in-law from several families.

Her junior sister told her which families they were, so she believed what her husband said about the Queen Mother not wanting to see her nieces from her natal family but to choose one of her nieces as her daughter-in-law.

She didn't want her niece to enter the palace.

Wang Jingye in the study was also surprised when he saw He Shankun.

He thought he would see a smaller version of Mo Xinzhi. People say that nephews look like their uncles.

Mr. He's eldest son looked exactly like his father, and his youngest son looked like his uncle. Unexpectedly, when they met, He Shankun kowtowed to his brother-in-law and thanked him for guiding his eldest brother in his studies. His parents were happy, and the whole family was happy, so was he. In front of them, he praised his brother for studying harder than he did, and said he wanted to learn from his brother.

Wang Jingye thought to himself, this is not a smaller version of Mo Xinzhi, but a smaller version of He Wenliang. I just forgot a saying, nephews look like their uncles.

The words "niece looks like aunt" immediately came to his mind. Fortunately, the two daughters of the He family did not look like aunt. He thought it was thanks to the Mo family. He felt that Mr. He could not do anything to his biological mother and sister, so he would definitely not be able to teach children.

He was in contact with the Mo family, and followed by women and children. He must have found out everything about the Mo and He families. He had embarrassed himself by coming to their house again that time, and he would not let his daughter or niece come into contact with someone like He.

Nie Chengping was also surprised. The students he taught in Guanzhong were not so eloquent in front of him.

He Shanluo is a dull person, and he didn't expect his brother to say such words. His attitude was very sincere and his expression was very innocent, and it was not considered as sweet talk.

He asked directly, "Did your third uncle teach you that?"

He had met He Wenliang several times and was quite eloquent.

He Shankun shook his head and said, "No, my third uncle taught me to listen to the teacher and study hard. Mother used to say that studying hard would bring honor to the He family and my father. Now she says that reading makes one sensible, and understanding reason and gratitude are more important than passing the imperial examination."

Wang Jingye asked, "What did your grandfather teach you?"

He Shankun pursed his lips and replied, "My grandfather said, 'Zengzi said: 'I examine myself three times a day: Am I unfaithful when I work for others? Am I trustworthy when I interact with friends? Do I practice what I have learned?'" I said I learned this in my first year of school. My grandfather said that one should remember these words for the rest of their lives. Not only should they remember them, but they should also put them into practice. I do this every day.

"Yesterday, my mother taught me to be honest and to make friends with honest people. I thought about it and realized that Mr. Nie was willing to teach my eldest brother about his studies. He is an honest man. I want to thank him and I will respect him as much as I respect my own husband."

Wang Jingye applauded, "Well said!"

He Shanluo was ashamed. He had never thought of kowtowing to Mr. Nie to express his gratitude. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he thought that if he kowtowed, Mr. Nie would think he wanted to become his disciple, which would make Mr. Nie embarrassed.
