In 1904, she served her husband and wife for 33 years. On this day, she was having dinner. Unbeknownst to her, the butler suddenly rushed in and shouted, her hand was crooked, and the bowl fell to the ground with a snap and shattered to the ground. The wife was about to open her mouth to reprimand, but the husband laughed heartily: "Sit down and eat together!" ”
At dinner that day, Li was absent-minded and kept thinking that his son's exam results should also be out, why had she not seen any movement for so long, because she was thinking too much, the bowl in her hand fell directly to the ground without paying attention.
This crisp sound sounded, everyone was startled, and Li Shi was even more frightened, his face turned white, and he stood there trembling, waiting for the merciless judgment of fate.
Just as the eldest lady was taking advantage of this, the little maid rushed in and shouted: "Great joy, great joy, great joy, great joy." ”
The eldest lady was interrupted before she could get out of her evil breath, and angrily scolded the little guy directly: "Have you learned all the rules in vain?" This little guy was not afraid when he was reprimanded, but said to everyone with a smile: "The family is very lucky, master, the lady and young master are on the list." ”
When Master Tan heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Where did you get the news?" The little guy said: "It's a message from the young master, and it can't be wrong." ”
Master Tan was so happy now, he rubbed his hands and said, "It is worthy of being the heir of my Tan family, so wow, so wow." As he spoke, he seemed to remember something, and called Lee.
Li stepped forward respectfully, and Master Tan grabbed her hand and said, "You can be regarded as a hero of the family." Where did the Li family dare to take credit, and hurriedly said: "Master, you are all well educated." ”
When Master Tan heard this, he was very complacent, and took Li in his arms and said, "Say, what reward do you want?" ”
Li shook his head and said, "The old lady is very good to me, I don't lack anything. Master Tan said, "Then let's do it, and you will be allowed to sit down in the future." ”
The eldest lady said at this time: "Master, I'm afraid this is not in accordance with the rules. Master Tan snorted coldly and said, "Why can't I be the master in this family?" Hearing this, the eldest lady said stupidly: "Don't dare." "No more words.
Back then, the Li family was originally a servant of the Tan Mansion, but because Master Tan took a fancy to her delicate and smart, he included her in the backyard and became a concubine.
The eldest lady naturally regards this concubine who is younger and more beautiful than herself as a thorn in her side, but as the head of the house, of course, she must behave generously, she thinks that competing with a concubine and being jealous loses her identity.
And in a big mansion like theirs, the most important thing is "rules and decency", fortunately, Master Tan is not distracted by the Li family, let's take eating as an example, the Li family has not eaten at the table for 33 years after becoming a concubine.
Still on the grounds of "dignity and inferiority", Master Tan seems to be very satisfied with the Li family, but he doesn't really respect the Li family in his heart, and still treats her as a fertility tool, and the eldest lady treats her completely as a subordinate.
And her stomach is really competitive, and she gave birth to three sons and a daughter, thinking that her life in the house with a child can be a little better, at least she can get a little attention.
But the result was not as she thought, but she even had to be restricted from seeing her children, in such a feudal and hierarchical house, the Li family walked on thin ice every day, and it was not even as free as a subordinate.
But fortunately, her children treat her very closely, and her sons are all dragons and phoenixes, especially her third child, Tan Yanhong, who embarked on the road to Beijing to take the exam with her expectations.
When she was worried at home, it really brought great news.
This made her identity jump, and finally changed the rules of standing for decades, and she could sit down generously.
And the success of her third son is naturally inseparable from the mother's encouragement, every time he reads and studies, he will think of his mother's instructions to himself, he holds the mentality of "must not let his mother down" to take the exam, and finally lived up to expectations.
And it is said that it was unfair that his article only won the second place at that time.
After the death of the Li family, the sons who had achieved their own success rushed home to make most of their mother's funeral scene, and at that moment, she was no longer the concubine of the Tan Mansion but the mother of the three big people.
