Chapter 1495: Don't want to kneel
Hearing Xu's words, Mrs. Li nodded and smiled slightly, "Okay, then it's settled."
After after a few more greetings, the Xu family resigned.
Sun Meimei also knew that he couldn't go home so quickly, after all, the lady didn't choose a good maid for the lady. But it's good to be able to go home at the end of the year. Especially now that everything is okay at home, my younger sister has become Doctor Wu’s apprentice and will become a respected female doctor in the future.
The reason why Mrs. is so polite to her family is also because of her younger sister's future prospects that she is willing to treat her with dignity.
The time to meet is very short. Xu's family is about to leave. Before leaving, he gave Sun Meimei ten taels of silver, "Mei Mei, you, you can collect these money just in case."
"Mother, I have monthly money in the mansion, and I live and eat in the mansion, so I don't need to spend my own money." Sun Meimei whispered, not wanting money from my mother.
Xu cried: "If you don’t have money at home, it’s just as bitter as before, but now the family’s life is better. When my mother thinks that you are alone, I’m not in my heart... , So you must accept it!"
Sun Meimei couldn't refuse, so she had to accept it. It's okay to bring the money, and when you come back from Fucheng, you can buy something for your family.
"Sister, take care, my house is waiting for you to come back." Sun Yingying said softly. Just now, her sister gave her some silk flowers, which are very beautiful.
Sun Meimei nodded, "Well, I will take care, and so will you."
Say goodbye to each other, the eyes of the mother and daughter are red.
Xu Shi wiped his tears and walked out with Sun Yingying, feeling a little depressed, but there was hope and expectation.
Sun Yingying frowned and felt dull. Not only because my sister can't go home now, but because she just knelt down for Mrs. Li.
Kneeling to the sky, kneeling to the ground and kneeling to her parents. As for other people, Sun Yingying feels a little uncomfortable. Although she is only a peasant girl now, she doesn't want to.
The Xu family didn't notice Sun Yingying's emotions, and kept heading away.
Sun Yingying turned his head and looked at his mother Xu family, "Mother, why did we kowtow to Mrs. Li just now? We are not the servants of Li Mansion!"
"Huh?" Xu clan was taken aback, then turned to look at his daughter, "Yingying, why do you ask?"
Sun Yingying is very serious, "Kneel to the sky, kneel to my parents, I don't want to kneel and kowtow to others."
Hearing this, Xu smiled, "Hey, if we meet ordinary wealthy households or businesses, we don’t need to kneel and kowtow as a good citizen, but if it’s an official or an official’s wife, even if it’s Good people, also kowtow, unless there is someone in our family who is admitted to be an official, so we don’t have to kneel down and just do respectful salutes."
"Oh!" Sun Yingying listened and suddenly realized, "Can women take the imperial examination?"
Xu thought for a while, "No, women can't take the exam, but women can go to the hospital and become a female imperial doctor, and that's also an official."
Sun Yingying thought for a while, "That's OK, I want to try it. By the way, I think they are all literate, eldest brother, second elder brother, was it because the family was poor that they didn’t read to them?"
Hearing this, Xu sighed with a melancholy expression, "Your father, your eldest sister, elder brother, and second brother are all taught to read. Originally, your father gave your second brother and the old man, the old lady fights for your second brother to follow Erlang from Dafang went to a private school together for a year, but because your father broke his leg, he was delayed. Hey, now your second brother is eleven, and it's a bit late."
