When watching "Knowing or Not", I found a small detail, before Grandma Kong taught Minglan flower arrangement and tea incense, Mrs. Sheng did not teach Minglan in advance.
Logically, Mrs. Sheng had also been raised in the palace for a while, and she must have been able to catch the elegant things played by the upper-class officials and eunuchs such as flower arrangements and teas.
If this is the case, why didn't Mrs. Sheng teach Minglan these skills in advance, and had to wait until Grandma Kong came to Shengfu before letting Minglan and the other sisters learn together?
First, he did not want Minglan to be too popular, thus provoking the jealousy of other sisters.
Minglan's birth mother, Wei Xiaoniang, often said a word to Minglan before, which was to let Minglan not be too sharp, so as not to attract people's envy.
However, Minglan was too young at that time to understand Wei Xiaoniang's planning without the world.
During the Hua Lanna ceremony, Minglan threw the pot too well, and the result caused Lin Yanshuang to be jealous, and finally designed to kill his birth mother Wei Xiaoniang.
In the ancient deep mansion compound, there were many crises, especially for people with humble status, no family background and pampering, it was even more difficult.
Wei Xiaoniang's bloody lessons made Minglan know how to cover up the sharp edge and taoguang to cultivate obscurity.
Later, although Minglan was adopted by her grandmother, mrs. Sheng's situation in Shengfu was also very embarrassing, she was not Sheng Hong's mother-in-law, on the surface it seemed that Sheng Hong respected her very much, but that was only because what Mrs. Sheng said was in sheng hong's interests, once Mrs. Sheng did not deal with a word, Sheng Hong was not happy or should not resist her mouth.
Old Lady Sheng's own position in Sheng Mansion was in jeopardy, Minglan's birth mother died, and Sheng Hong did not care so much about her, if Old Lady Sheng had taught Minglan the skills of flower arrangement and tea and incense to Minglan in advance.
For Mrs. Sheng, it will make people wonder whether Mrs. Sheng wants Minglan to marry into the high gate, which makes her hollow mind to teach her the skills that only these high-ranking officials and eunuchs can learn.
But Minglan's identity is after all a concubine, she has a sister Rulan on her head, and a concubine's daughter Mo Lan.
These sisters are all granddaughters in Mrs. Sheng's place, and if Mrs. Sheng only teaches Minglan, it will make people around her think that Mrs. Sheng is too eccentric, just thinking of letting Minglan's granddaughter marry well.
In this way, Mrs. Sheng would offend the rest of the Sheng family.
Old Lady Sheng has become the public enemy of Shengfu, Minglan naturally can't escape becoming a place of resentment, other sisters will think that Minglan stole all the favors of her grandmother, she has learned the necessary skills to marry into the rich, so where to let Mo Lan and Ru Lan be placed?
But if Mrs. Sheng gathers the three sisters together to teach, it is obviously not appropriate, after all, these three sisters get together and are easy to quarrel and fight, in case of such contradictions and conflicts as during the class like grandma Kong's flower arrangement class, how should Mrs. Sheng deal with it?
I'm afraid that no matter what she does, it will make people think that she is biased and unfair.
Instead of ending up in a thankless and annoying situation, it is better not to teach anyone and be quiet.
Second, Mrs. Sheng did not want Minglan to marry a high-ranking family, but only hoped that she would marry an ordinary family and live a peaceful life.
Aunt Kong once asked Mrs. Sheng why she didn't personally teach Minglan flower arrangement and tea incense skills before, and Mrs. Sheng replied at that time that she did not plan to let Minglan marry a high-ranking family, so she did not teach her these.
Later in the plot, we can also see that mrs. Sheng is not looking for Minglan, who is a high-ranking household such as the Earl And Marquis, but He Hongwen, the son of the medical family.
Mrs. Sheng did not want Minglan to calculate her life for the rest of her life, so what she planned for Minglan from the beginning was to marry a family with a solid and simple family.
Since she did not marry into the family of high-class officials and eunuchs, in the eyes of Mrs. Sheng, Minglan did not need to learn these skills, if she taught them to Minglan, it would cause others to be jealous that Minglan was very ambitious, thus causing trouble for her and herself.
It can be said that at the beginning, out of various trade-offs, Mrs. Sheng felt that she did not have to and could not teach Minglan flower arrangement to drink tea and incense, but people's cognition will change with time and experience.
So, when did Mrs. Sheng feel that Minglan also needed to learn about the elegant things that these high society played with?
It should be that Hua Lan was in the Zhongqin Earl's Palace, because he did not know how to arrange flowers and tea incense when he was ridiculed by his sister-in-law.
This point was mentioned by Mrs. Sheng when chatting with Wang Ruofu, and Wang Ruofu was still upset with Hua Lan at that time: "Their family is a warrior, they know what style and elegance, and they are just looking for ballast there!" ”
However, Mrs. Sheng didn't think so: "It's not right for you to say so, although these ghost things are not of great use, they can go to the door, which is another way of saying it." ”
The Count of Zhongqin's Palace is a military general, and they all care about these elegant things, so even if Minglan marries ordinary people after marriage, he will not use these skills, even if he can't use them temporarily, the skills are not oppressive, and after the husband's family is promoted, he may have to use them.
Hua Lan's example has made Mrs. Sheng realize that Minglan still needs to learn the skills of flower arrangement, tea and incense, but she is not good at teaching Minglan alone.
At this time, it just so happened that Minglan and Rulan were punished by Sheng Hong for not paying attention to the rules of etiquette, and Mrs. Sheng could just take advantage of this matter to invite Aunt Kong to teach Minglan at home.
First, you can sell Wang Ruofu's face to help her rescue Rulan and also rescue Minglan who accompanies her; second, if Rulan is taught together, others will not feel that she is eccentric; third, Minglan can justifiably learn the skills of flower arrangement and tea incense, which will not make people think that she is ambitious, so as to calculate.
Minglan and grandmother, forbearing with each other, guarding each other
Although Mrs. Sheng hurt Minglan in her heart, in order not to provoke the envy of others for Minglan, she could only deliberately pretend to be indifferent to Minglan and did not care so much.
Even the skills of teaching flower arrangement and tea incense cannot be taught in person, but can only be taught by the hands of others, so that Minglan can learn these knowledge in a justifiable way.
And Minglan, in order not to add trouble to her grandmother, is also cautious at home, pretending to be stupid and stupid, taoguang and obscurity.
Therefore, Minglan and grandmother, at that time, the situation in Shengfu was to hide from each other and protect each other.
The grandmother can't show too much attention to loving Minglan, and Minglan also has to pretend to be stupid for her grandmother.
So, suppose, what would happen if grandmother taught Minglan these elegant skills before Grandma Kong?
In fact, through the poisoning of his grandmother by Wang Ruofu, it can be deduced from the results of the grandmother's teaching of Minglan in advance.
Why did Wang Ruofu poison Old Lady Sheng? It was nothing more than because Old Lady Sheng, for the sake of Minglan, made Wang Ruofu kneel in the ancestral hall in front of the Sheng family, causing Wang Ruofu to lose face, and Wang Ruofu hated and poisoned Old Lady Sheng, and did not hesitate to poison her.
To put it bluntly, it was not because Old Lady Sheng loved Minglan too much, but because Minglan was too harsh on Wang Ruofu, and as a result, Wang Ruofu resented.
Similarly, if Old Lady Sheng had taught Minglan the skills learned by these high-ranking officials and eunuchs in advance, it might have caused the rest of the Sheng family to be dissatisfied with Old Lady Sheng, thus harming Old Lady Sheng behind her back.
Therefore, in order to consider each other, it is appropriate for Grandma Kong to teach Minglan.
