Chapter 129 Let’s not learn this
Mrs. Li was stunned after hearing this. She had thought so before. Her grandmother was the only daughter of her great-grandfather. Her great-grandfather's parents died early. Her grandmother single-handedly supported the general's mansion and made great military achievements.
The most common words she heard when she was a child were praising her grandmother for being as brave as any man, but those were only said by family members, and she had no idea what outsiders thought.
As for her grandfather, Mrs. Li had no impression of him as he died when she was a child.
All Mrs. Li knew about him was that he was originally a small soldier, and later became her grandmother's deputy general. Later, he used his military achievements to exchange for an imperial decree to marry into her grandmother's family.
Her grandfather was seriously injured because of her grandmother, and he became ill and passed away early.
She also wanted to be a woman like her grandmother, but why did she need to learn the Four Books for Women?
She remembered that her mother and grandmother had never asked her to learn these things. She was the second daughter of the general's mansion and her elder sister was the queen. Even if she didn't learn, what could others do?
Because the mother-in-law wants a daughter-in-law who is well-educated, gentle and virtuous, she knows that her husband does not care about these things.
But faced with her mother-in-law's pickyness, she still chose to compromise.
Having been imprisoned by this female Sishu for too long, she almost forgot her bold, bright, and unrestrained self.
She looked at the beautiful and lively Qi Wuyou, as if she saw herself back then, and smiled, "Princess, you're right. We won't learn this."
As he said this, he handed the Four Women's Books on the desk to Mei Xue who was standing nearby and asked her to burn them.
Madam Li looked at the weather outside. It was sunny and bright. "Can the queen ride a horse?"
Qi Wuyou became interested, "I have long wanted to try the feeling of riding a horse, but I don't know how to ride a horse."
As he spoke, his tone was filled with a hint of anticipation, "Auntie, are you going to ask me to ride a horse?"
Mrs. Li smiled. The more she looked at this little girl, the more she liked her. She wished she could have a little girl as sweet and soft as her.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Li thought of her daughter who was far away in Hezhou and sighed. She was already in her twenties and still hadn't found someone to marry.
I had originally agreed to let her travel around in the hope that she could bring home a husband for me, but now it's been more than three years and I haven't even seen a shadow of her.
Even if she found a beggar she liked to marry into the family, she and her father would feel at ease.
The more Madam Li thought about it, the angrier she became. The more she thought about it, the more helpless she felt. What could she do if she was angry? That damn girl was in Hezhou. Could she just drop her job and run to Hezhou to give that damn girl a beating?
On the way to the horse farm, Qi Wuyou couldn't stop sighing. Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "Aunt, what are you worried about?"
Madam Li sighed again, "It's all because of that damn girl of mine. She's grown up but still doesn't know how to find a close friend. She just keeps running away."
Qi Wuyou reacted and realized that his aunt was the wife of Duke Dingguo, so her daughter should be Sister Li.
Qi Wuyou felt a little guilty. After all, Li Han was now helping her manage the business, and she also contributed to her being able to travel around the world.
Qi Wuyou tried to comfort her, "Don't worry, Auntie. Marriage is about fate. When fate arrives, marriage will come, right?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Li refused to listen. She thrust her waist forward and spread her legs, acting like a shrew.
The words he said were very consistent with the image, "That damn girl is already in her twenties. When I was her age, he was already a bystander."
"What do you think she was thinking?"
"Is it possible that she doesn't plan to get married? Her father and I have already lowered our requirements to the lowest level. As long as it's a human being, it's fine. Why doesn't she listen to our advice?"
"..."
Qi Wuyou didn't hear the rest of the words clearly. He just felt that Madam Li seemed to have opened up her Ren and Du meridians, and she no longer had the gentle look she had when they first met.
The whole person seemed like a different person, more lively. Qi Wuyou felt that the current Mrs. Li was the real Mrs. Li.
Arriving at the horse ranch, Mrs. Li finally stopped her unilateral chattering.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yuxiu was also there. During the previous ceremony of crowning the queen, Lu Yuxiu was out suppressing bandits. He had never met Qi Wuyou, and Qi Wuyou naturally didn't know him either. This was the first time the two met.
Mrs. Li was the first to greet him, "Brother is here too."
However, Lu Yuxiu didn't look at her but kept looking at Qi Wuyou beside her with a serious expression.
Qi Wuyou noticed Lu Yuxiu's gaze and didn't understand what was going on, but decided to say hello first.
Seeing that his features were similar to those of Madam Li, and hearing Madam Li calling him brother just now, she guessed who he was.
She bowed as a junior and said, "Greetings, uncle."
Actually, she wanted to call him General Lu just now, but he is the Queen Mother's biological brother, which means he is Xuan Yelan's uncle. If she calls him General, wouldn't that be too distant?
Madam Li was very satisfied with Qi Wuyou's address. In her opinion, Qi Wuyou was Xuan Yelan's wife, and it was normal for her to call her aunt and brother uncle.
But Lu Yuxiu obviously didn't think so? He was stunned for a moment. He had never met Qi Wuyou, so he naturally didn't know that she was the queen. According to seniority, she should call him uncle.
But Lu Yuxiu obviously didn't expect this. At this moment, a little girl with delicate looks whom she had never met before called her uncle, and Lu Yuxiu was unable to react for a while.
He looked at his sister who was beside him and slapped his forehead, then suddenly realized, could it be that his sister had secretly given birth to a daughter without telling him?
Thinking of this, Lu Yuxiu frowned and questioned Madam Li who was standing next to Qi Wuyou. Pointing at Qi Wuyou, she said, "You gave birth to such a big daughter without telling your family. Does that old guy Li Zhi know?"
This statement is just short of saying that Mrs. Li is having an affair.
This sentence confused everyone present. Qi Wuyou didn't expect Lu Yuxiu to say this. She didn't know how to explain it for a moment. She didn't expect that her address would cause such a big misunderstanding.
Mrs. Li came to her senses, rolled up her sleeves and punched her brother without any hesitation, hitting him on the left cheek.
Lu Yuxiu looked incredulous. Before he got married, his sister loved to play and fight with him, but after getting married, her temper changed completely and she never hit anyone.
But looking at his sister's expression, even though he was beaten, why did he feel inexplicably relieved?
Madam Li said angrily, "Brother, what are you talking about? She is not my daughter."
Having said that, Madam Li thought that no matter how dumb her elder brother was, he should know who Qi Wuyou was. After all, her elder brother knew that she had entered the palace to teach the queen.
But Mrs. Li will be disappointed, Lu Yuxiu's IQ is not up to par today.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuxiu was again filled with disbelief. He looked at Qi Wuyou. This little girl was not Jian Jiajia's. Could she be A Jin's?
But the late emperor has been buried for so many years, where did this little girl come from? Who did Ah Jin have a child with?
Seeing that Lu Yuxiu's expression became more and more distorted, Madam Li knew that he was trying to deceive her again.
Madam Li made a “tsk” sound. How come a general who is so brave and resourceful in planning and strategizing on the battlefield can’t react to such a small matter?
