288 No Household

Learning Wu? Wei Wan was stunned.

Emperor Taizu advocated equality between men and women and encouraged women to study and practice martial arts. After the first emperor ascended the throne, he highly praised the aristocratic family and advocated women to be gentle, tranquil and polite, and well-educated. Therefore, the same was true for her education of her daughter, allowing her daughter to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and women to quit women's training.

However, after a brief moment of stunned silence, Wei Wan nodded to Gu Yanfei immediately and said, "Okay."

"It's good to practice martial arts!"

Last time she didn't listen to Gu Yanfei, which almost caused a big mistake. She died with her daughter inexplicably. When she thinks about it, she still has lingering fears.

If she insisted on letting her daughter learn a lot, it might cause some great difficulties to her daughter.

Besides, although the girl will suffer a lot when she learns martial arts at home, she will learn martial arts and will not be taken away by anyone. Her daughter will not be bullied at least!

Wei Wan turned her head and looked at Xu Yao, gently embracing her daughter's slender shoulders, with a loving and gentle look.

Xu Yao was a caring and well-behaved girl and immediately said, "Okay, mom, I want to practice martial arts."

Once she learns martial arts, she can protect her mother!

Xu Yao's pupils lit up slightly.

"Brother!" Wei Wan was impatient and quickly looked at Duke Wei who was sitting diagonally opposite her, and said, "Let's go back and find a better martial arts master for Sister Yao."

Duke Wei and Duke Wei exchanged a tacit look with the wife of Duke Wei.

This matter is simple for the Duke of Wei’s Mansion. The Duke of Wei’s wife is also a military general, and she has many female guards with good skills around her.

The Duke of Wei smiled and said, "Wan'er, what do you think Qiuzhuo?"

Qiuzhu has been with the Duke of Wei for more than 20 years. When the Duke of Wei followed the Duke of Wei to guard the border, Qiuzhuo also went to the battlefield. It is naturally no longer a problem to be a mere young martial arts master.

Wei Wan also knew Qiu Zhuo and responded happily: "I let my sister-in-law give up her love."

Within a few words, two women with anxious tempers decided on this matter, making Gu Yanfei unable to find a chance to interrupt.

Gu Yanfei: “…”

Gu Yanfei silently picked up the teacup, but in fact she was only halfway through what she said.

She took a sip of tea, and after the sister-in-law and sister-in-law had finished discussing, she continued: "Sister Yao is too quiet and too obedient..."

Her meaningful gaze swept across Xu Yao, who was sitting upright and smiling.

For the girl's family, quietness and depravity are words of praise, but in Gu Yanfei's current context, it is inevitably thought-provoking.

Wei Wan and the wife of Duke Wei were both thinking about something.

The Duke of Wei guessed that it was because Xu Yao was here, and some words were inconvenient to say, so he found an excuse as if nothing had happened: "Yan Fei, didn't you say you wanted to give me a few fire carp last time?"

"Sister Yao, can you help my aunt pick it?"

When the Duke of Wei asked, Xu Yao, who had never refused, got up obediently and responded, followed Juan Bi out of the main hall.

Looking at Xu Yao's small figure gradually moving away, Gu Yanfei's eyes became clearer and brighter, and he said slowly: "Let's be too soft and kind. As she is like this, nine years later, she will definitely fall into a big fall in the marriage, meet someone wrong, and be played with by the other party."

Her tone was very certain, as if her eyes had seen Xu Yao's future.

Just after Gu Yanfei made a little move, Wei Wan couldn't help but start to start thinking.

Calculate the time, nine years later, Xu Yao happened to be in the hairpin.

At the age of fifteen, she will officially take over the Ji'an Marquis Mansion.

It is conceivable that by then, her marriage will attract many thoughtful people.

To put it brutal, Xu Yao is just a piece of fragrant fat, which will inevitably attract those bloodthirsty tigers and wolves. It would be fine to seek wealth, but I am afraid that he will eat your flesh and blood.

How can a young girl who is weak in the boudoir fight against those tigers and wolves with ulterior motives? Xu Yan's previous example is there.

This time, the mother and daughter met Gu Yanfei and saved their lives. Can their daughter still have such good luck in nine years?!

Wei Wan was so scared that she was shocked, and her middle clothes on her back were soaked in cold sweat.

Wei Wan hurriedly said, "I will let Sister Yao start learning martial arts tomorrow."

"It's all my fault. I should have taught her when I was a child."

In the past, her daughter had parents, elder brothers and a backer, and had a foreign country and a Duke's Mansion as a backer. She only had to find a gentle and loyal husband in this life and spend her life safely.

To put it bluntly, it was my fault that I was a mother.

Looking at Wei Wan's appearance, the Duke of Wei was thinking in his mind that he might just let the young people at home practice with him. The girls practice together, and having a companion would be lively.

After talking about the serious matter, the Duke of Wei jokingly said, "When we go back, if Jiao Niang knows that we are here, she will definitely blame us for not bringing her to play with her."

Duke Wei and Wei Wan were also amused.

Wei Wan smiled and said, "Yan Fei, I heard from my sister-in-law that you like listening to operas like Jiao Niang. Another day I will invite a opera troupe to come back to the house to sing opera. I heard that a opera troupe from Yangzhou came to Beijing recently. Not only did Yang Opera sing well, but he could also perform puppet operas, which was very interesting."

When Gu Yanfei heard the puppet show, his eyes lit up and he responded happily.

While talking, Xu Yao came back, and there was a bit of brightness between her originally quiet eyebrows and eyes. The maid behind her was holding a blue and white porcelain fish tank the size of a washbasin.

"Auntie, I've picked up the fire carp, look." Xu Yao said to the Duke of Wei with a smile, with a slap on his face.

The Duke of Wei praised Xu Yao for his good vision with a smile.

After talking for a while, the Duke of Wei and his group of people offered their farewell.

Gu Yanfei personally sent the person to the outer gate of Gu's mansion, where the carriages and horses of the Duke of Wei's mansion were parked.

When they came, the head of Duke Wei came up casually, looked at Gu Yanfei quickly, and whispered: "The people from the Xu family clan have gone to the Duke's Mansion, and now they are in the Duke's Mansion and refuse to leave."

"Even the former patriarch, Mr. Xu, is here. You know that Mr. Xu is in his 80s. The prince's wife is afraid that if Mr. Xu has an accident, she will let them in."

To put it bluntly, the wife of the Duke of Wei was afraid that Mr. Xu would be too excited. If he died at the gate of the Duke of Wei's mansion, he would be easily regarded as a chore and would affect Xu Yao's successor.

Duke Wei just nodded slightly, not surprised by the Xu clan's visit without complaint, and had already known it in his heart.

In the world, only men can inherit the family business and grant the title of marquis of Ji'an Marquis' Mansion to a girl's house. The Xu clan is definitely not happy.

In most cases, they still had the idea of ​​adopting the descendants of the clan to give them to the clan.

Duke Wei and Duke Wei's wife looked at each other tacitly, both of whom were calm and composed.

After the Wei family and Gu Yanfei said goodbye, they left the Gu Mansion with carriages and horses.

Just as Duke Wei expected, even if no one in the court opposed it, the people in the Xu clan still made a fuss.

Sometimes he proposed that Xu Yan's second brother Xu Yu inherit the title, and sometimes he proposed to choose one from Xu Yu's son to adopt Wei Wan. These proposals were all dismissed by Duke Wei in an understatement.

The Xu clan thought they had retreated and retreated, and the final condition was that the candidate for Xu Yao's husband in the future would be decided by the clan. After Xu Yao gave birth to a boy, he would immediately give the title to Xu Yao's eldest son.

For this, the Xu family took the old Mr. Xu back and forth to the Duke of Wei's mansion several times.

The various prefectures in the capital also saw it, and most of them were watching this matter, wanting to see how this matter will develop in the end. For a time, the Wei and Xu families became the focus of the capital.

The first marquises of the Great Jing Dynasty since its founding, also caused quite a stir among the people, just like a stone causing a thousand waves.

There are some sour scholars, old scholars in the academy and teahouses who keep saying that the woman's inheritance is absurd, and it is a sign that the country is not in a state. Alas, sad;

But some wealthy businessmen who cannot give birth to sons and are said to be extremely disgusted are overjoyed.

In the next few days, the capital became more and more lively, and everyone from nobles to civilians was discussing this matter.

When Juan Bi found out some news outside, she returned home in high spirits and reported to Gu Yanfei: "Miss, do you know Zhen's silver house?"

Gu Yanfei, who was sitting in front of the desk, slowly raised his head from the account book, a little depressed.

These days she has been detained by Gu Yunzhen at home and asked her to read the account book for the past month after the separation.

She looked at the strings of numbers in the account book and had a headache. It took her two whole days to finish reading half of it.

"Zhen's Silver House?" Gu Yanfei felt familiar and raised his eyebrows, feeling that he had seen this name somewhere.

She turned about ten pages in front of the account book, and pointed at a certain location on the account book, "Is this Zhen's silver house?"

Juanbi brought a new cup of tea to Gu Yanfei, leaned over and took a look, couldn't help but be happy, and said with a touch of his hand: "It's this house."

Since the Gu Mansion split last month, there has been a lot of things in the mansion. Without adding anyone, I have added a lot of things. For example, I ordered some exquisite silver flasks from this Zhen family silver house to reward the people as a gift for meetings.

"Not only this silver croaker, but also your gold-inlare-carved bracelet is the jewelry of Zhen's Silver Borrow." Juan Bi said with a smile, "This Zhen's Silver Borrow is one of the leading silver Borrows in the capital. In recent years, it has opened many semicolons in various states and its business is booming."

"That boss Zhen is now in his destiny and has only one daughter. This girl Zhen has the style of being a father and is a good businessman. She has helped Bos Zhen to do business and manage it in an orderly manner over the years."

"But because a woman cannot inherit the family business, the Zhen clan has been forcing Mr. Zhen to adopt a distant nephew. Mr. Zhen is not willing to give up the huge family business and refuses to agree. He has been stubborn with the clan for so many years."

"I have inquired in private that Boss Zhen lost his father when he was young and raised by his widowed mother. Back then, someone in the clan bullied their orphans and widowed mother, and almost robbed the two thousand taels of silver left by Mr. Zhen. It was the uncle's family who helped him stand up and made a fuss, and the clan gave up."

While speaking, Juan Bi curled her lips disdainfully and commented: "This Zhen clan is really shameless. She used to bully someone orphans and widows, but now she is still in a position to covet their family business. If I were Boss Zhen, I would not agree to adopt my sons and nephews. Why should the family business I have worked hard to build be cheaper for others!"
