Chapter 1492
Hearing Xu's words, Mrs. Li nodded and smiled, "well, that's a deal."
After a few greetings, Xu left.
Sun Meimei also knew she couldn't go home so soon. After all, the lady didn't choose a good servant girl for the young lady. But it's good to go home at the end of the year. Especially now everything is fine at home. My sister has become an apprentice of Dr. Wu and will become a respected female doctor in the future.
The reason why madam is so polite to her family is that she is willing to give her dignity because of her sister's future.
The meeting time was very short. Xu was about to leave. When he left, he gave sun Meimei ten liang of silver, "Meimei, you, keep the money just in case."
"Mom, I have monthly money in the house, and I don't have to spend my own money for food and accommodation." Sun Meimei whispered, not for the money given by my mother.
Xu said angrily, "if you don't have money at home, it's just as hard as before, but life at home is better now. My mother's heart is... It's not a taste when she thinks of you outside alone, so you must accept it!"
Sun Meimei couldn't refuse, so she had to accept it. It's better to take the money. When you come back from Fucheng, you can buy some things for your family.
"Take care, sister. My family is waiting for you to come back." Sun Yingying said softly. Just now, my sister gave her some silk flowers. They are very beautiful.
Sun Meimei nodded, "well, I'll take care, you too."
The mother and daughter had red eyes.
Xu wiped his tears and walked out with sun Yingying. He was a little depressed, but he also had hope and expectation.
Sun Yingying frowned and was depressed. Not just because my sister can't go home now, but because she just knelt down and kowtowed to Mrs. Li.
Kneeling, kneeling, kneeling parents, as for others, sun Yingying is a little uncomfortable. Although she is only a peasant girl now, she doesn't want to.
Xu didn't notice sun Yingying's mood and kept walking.
Sun Yingying turned his head and looked at his mother Xu. "Mother, why did we kowtow to Mrs. Li just now? We are not servants of the Li family!"
"Ah?" Xu was stunned and turned to his daughter, "Yingying, why do you ask?"
Sun Yingying is extremely serious. "Kneel down to kneel down to my parents. I don't want to kneel down and kowtow to others."
Hearing this, Xu smiled, "Hey, if we meet ordinary rich households or businesses, we don't have to kneel and kowtow as good people, but if it's an official or an official's wife, even a good people, we have to kowtow, unless we have an official who has passed the examination, so we don't have to kneel and respect."
"Oh!" Sun Yingying heard it and suddenly realized, "can women take the imperial examination?"
Xu Shi thought, "no, women can't take the exam, but women can take the exam in the imperial hospital and become a female imperial doctor. That's also an official."
Sun Yingying thought, "well, I want to try. By the way, eldest brother and second brother, I think they can read. Was it because their family was poor that they didn't read to them?"
Hearing this, Xu sighed and looked melancholy. "I taught your father, your eldest sister, eldest brother and second brother how to read. Originally, your father gave your second brother to fight with the old man and the old lady and asked your second brother to go to a private school with the second Lang of the big room for a year, but it was delayed because your father's leg was broken. Alas, now your second brother is eleven, and it's a little late."
