Who Cares

The father and daughter sat silently, waiting in despair. At noon, Xu Tao, the eldest son who went out to inquire about the news, finally returned, with mixed joys and sorrows, "Father, you will be fine. It's just a career."

Xu Guangzhi was overjoyed at first, then stiffened again, with a look of resentment in his eyes. What is the difference between ruining his career and killing him? He is full of talents, is it so wasted?

"Father, don't think too much about it. Keeping your life is the most important thing. Keep the green hills and you are not afraid that there will be no firewood. I heard that the emperor said to the emperor that he wants to cast a Confucian classics and another Baijia's classics, and invite the world. The literati worked for this. He is now in the Wencui Building to discuss with you Hongru, you have written a "Sub-Collection Notes", although there are errors and omissions, but there are also points worthy of recognition, as long as you ask a few famous people to protect you, Maybe you can get a job as a writer. After a long time, some reputation can be restored. The emperor only said that you would not be allowed to be an official, but he did not say that you would not be allowed to write a book."

"Let me think about it, I'm not in a hurry now, let's wait until the storm has subsided." Xu Guangzhi finally understood a proverb deeply-the rafters in their early days rot first. If he hadn't been too eager for quick success and quick gains, but had published articles together with the great scholars, there would be no such changes today.

Xu Tao glanced at his sister and said hesitatingly, "I also inquired about a piece of news. Today, the princes urged the emperor to stand up. The emperor announced that he would marry the most beautiful country in the Wei country, the most beautiful family, the most talented, and the most virtuous. I don’t know what others think, but our family’s Yan’er is not good except for family history. The other three are above the standard and should be contending. Yan’er was not the first daughter of the King’s family in Linxiang before. Are you close to each other? In the future, you will often walk around with the princess, maybe you can see the emperor."

Xu Yayan's heart beats wildly for a moment, but quickly calmed down, and said with a wry smile, "How you hear these words are compared to the daughter of the Guan family."

Lin, who had been listening outside the door for a long time, suddenly came in and snorted, “Don’t belittle yourself, the daughter of Guan’s family is the body of harmony, and the flower and the willow, how can she be on par with you?”

Xu Guangzhi moved his mind slightly, waved his hand and whispered, "This is hard to say. The customs of the Jiuli are very different from those of the Han people. Wife and stepmother, younger brother and sister-in-law marrying uncle are all commonplace. Marrying a married woman doesn't count for them. what."

"But that's the queen! The mother of a country! How can a woman who has been married be a woman? Besides, the emperor has the power to dominate the world, but I am the only one who wants to marry a wife. How many icy and clean women can't get it. Broken shoes? Guan's daughter wants to be a queen, go dream!" Lin hated Guan Suyi, so naturally there was no good thing. As if thinking of something, she was overjoyed. Yan'er, go and take out your manuscript for your father to see, and ask him to help you correct it and post it, so as to gain a reputation for being amazing and talented."

"But mother, you were so angry last time that you threatened to burn the manuscript, so I stopped writing. Now I only wrote three or four pages, which is still far from the date of writing." After reading Guan Suyi's article, After learning that she is a guest from Nii Hostel, Xu Yayan's self-confidence is running out, and she doesn't want to take out the manuscript to make people laugh.

"Go get it, Dad will take a look for you." Xu Guangzhi suddenly said, and even his brother looked over with hope.

Xu Yayan couldn't, so he had to take out a few pages and spread them out on the table one by one. Xu Guangzhi read a few paragraphs, stroked his palms and praised, "Good writing! Although the writing style is still immature, but the intention is extremely profound. After the book is completed, it may be handed down to the world! You continue to write, and the father will polish for you after finishing writing. Fame, let all the women of Wei state know that there is a character like you!"

"Thank you father!" Xu Yayan was overjoyed.

"Daddy was wrong. He alienated you from Princess Linxiang and almost ruined your future. If she sends a post again in the future, you should accept it."

"But her concubine is a hungry ghost, I'm afraid..."

"Don't go to Jingjun Palace, just ask people out to play, it's best to inquire about what's going on in the palace." Xu Guangzhi hinted.

"Daughter understands. My daughter will definitely not let Daddy down." Xu Yayan's eyes beamed and her mood was agitated. Daddy's career has been broken, but she still has unlimited possibilities. She asks herself that she looks very vulgar, has outstanding talents, and has noble morals. Except for a dwarf from the family background, she can hardly find a single fault on her whole body. On the other hand, how about the Guan's daughter, no matter how good the conditions are? After all, it was just a dilapidated flower. How can the emperor's dignity look like her? As long as this "Female Ring" is written, all the women of the Wei Kingdom will regard it as a standard, and all the men of the Wei Kingdom will praise her as virtuous and virtuous. Even if it cannot attract the emperor, they can find a good family.

Thinking of this, Xu Yayan's passion suddenly came to life, and immediately left and went back to the house, struggling to write.

----

Because the previous article offended Xu Guangzhi, Mr. Guan led his granddaughter to visit the door to apologize, and invited the other party to write a Confucian classic. His generous attitude drew numerous praises. Guan Suyi's literary name was extremely popular for a while, but in the eyes of those with a heart, she was the worst daughter-in-law, who either caused this or caused the misfortune. It is endless, just like a catastrophe.

The people who originally intended to get married with the Imperial Master's Mansion have retreated, but Yun Weng came to the door and asked for a marriage for his direct disciple Ji Chengyue. Zhong was overjoyed and promised. He was about to send a post to invite Mrs. Ji to have an interview, but first received a booklet from the other party, containing a few thousand words, but he could read it in a quarter of an hour, but he almost made him vomit. Old blood.

"What is meant by reading this book if you want to marry Jifu? This is to let Yi follow the instructions written in this book. Only when you are fulfilled can you marry into her family? In the end? Is this making Yiyi a mistress or a slave to her family? The old thief, she deceives people too much, and she plays the majesty of her mother-in-law before she passes the door. How can you get it after you pass the door!" Has been angered to the extreme.

Guan Suyi winked at Ming Lan and asked her to take Mu Mu to play in the yard. When the two of them walked far away, they crossed the threshold and picked up the little book on the ground. The word "Female Ring" pierced her eyeballs severely, causing her to breathe quickly, and her hatred surged, "Where did this come from?"

Zhong's words were vague, "I don't know which maid brought in, don't look at it, she's talking nonsense!" She made up her mind not to let her daughter marry into the Ji Mansion, so naturally she wouldn't tell her the origin of the pamphlet.

But Guan Suyi was so keen, and he got a good guess, "Is it sent by Jifu? Has this book spread all over Yanjing City?"

"It's not about spreading to Yanjing, it's only spreading in the upper circle and Confucianism." Zhong had heard of this book before, but it was the first time he saw it with his own eyes, and sneered, "For those big men, This book is a good thing. Give it to the girls at home to study, and it won't take long to educate every fool who obeys."

Guan Suyi hastily turned over two pages, his mind is not authentic, "It is not only used by men to train women, women can also use it to train women. If the mother-in-law asks the daughter-in-law to act according to this book, it will really take decades. It’s just the beginning of the day. This is a book, but a shackle, a big mountain. I wish I could detain and suppress all the women in the world, and I will never be relieved for the rest of my life!"

Seeing the inscription on the last page, Guan Suyi sneered, "Caiwei Sanren, Miss Xu Er? Presumably she is already the hottest candidate for the best wife in Yanjing City?"

"Yes, I heard that several noble families proposed to her in succession, saying that Miss Xu Er can be a model of female virtue, and she must marry home. She must be Wangfu Wangzi and glorious lintel." Zhong rubbed his temples and sighed deeply. Others’ daughters come from hundreds of families. Why is her daughter so good, but few people care about it?

"I must have been rejected by her, right? Where is she willing to marry a layman now? The one staring at the imperial city. Not only her, who is willing to marry at this time for a lady with a little family background? Children dress up; talented ones can write poems with energy; those with no talents and appearances simply live in temples for long-term repairs, and occasionally use porridge to help the refugees to show their virtues. A good girl’s house is completely distorted just because of the first sentence. It's so ridiculous!" Guan Suyi threw the "Female Ring" into the brazier and burned it, his eyes soaked with coldness.

The Zhong clan was also very dissatisfied and complained, "They just have to toss on their own. Why do they often come to see you? One or two eyes are poisoned, as if you have blood and deep hatred with you. If you are not the body of peace, They will definitely be stripped of their skins and bones. The emperor's four conditions are clearly talking about you!" Zhong Clan, like Mr. Guan, took it for granted that his daughter is the best woman in the world and deserves to be favored by the emperor.

The coldness of Guan Suyi's eyes receded slightly, and a thin layer of red appeared on his cheeks, and he groaned, "Mother, you speak a little bit more slowly, don't let others listen, otherwise our house should be drowned by the spit star."

"What flood is flooded? Who is the lover you said last time? You know, I know, God knows. I'm reluctant to send you into that cannibalistic place to suffer, otherwise, how can I let the thief wife of the Ji family insult you? Now all the noble ladies of the Wei Kingdom are reluctant to marry, and they want to be rich and wealthy. I want to see if our family rejects this marriage, when Ji Chengyue's servant can marry a wife!"

Zhong cursed fiercely, and then he was comfortable. He was about to let his daughter accompany him to embroider, but when he saw Minglan rushing in in a panic, he shouted, "Madam is okay, little master is gone!"

"What are you talking about?" Guan Suyi's face changed drastically. Before Zhong's reaction, he ran out, calmly and decisively ordered, "When and where did he disappear, take me to see? Why didn't you stay with him? By my side? Forget it, it’s useless to blame you now, Jin Jin, hurry up and help me find someone. This is a lot of work, and I must not go far. By the way, Hunar arranged manpower around me, right? Put them all Called out to help, and said that I owed their master once, so that I can pay anything back!"

Jin Jin did not dare to delay, and hurriedly went to find someone, and sounded the beast flute hanging around his neck, summoning the dead men hidden in the dark. The young master was missing in the mansion, and these people didn't notice the slightest abnormality. If only he hid himself, if someone messed up, the other party's background was definitely not simple.
