Chapter 92 A Fist Must Be Hard
Shangguan Jin carefully examined the two contracts in her room.
Every contract must be carefully considered, word by word, to ensure that all unfavorable factors are excluded.
Shangguan Jin looked very carefully.
On the other side, Shen Qingyue also took Hua Wanli to her own courtyard.
After sending the maids away, Shen Qingyue personally brewed tea for Hua Wanli and also brought her some snacks.
Before long, Shen Qingyu, that little girl, also came running over from the training ground after hearing the news.
"So you're the legendary Lian Qianli's sister!"
You are so beautiful, just like my sister and mother.
"But can you lift such a heavy knife?" Shen Qingyu exclaimed first, then expressed her doubt.
Hua Wanli was delighted; being praised by the little girl must have been a very happy thing.
Because little girls generally don't lie.
She explained to Shen Qingyu while eating her snacks.
Do you know what the sayings are like in the martial arts world?
"I don't know. I've never been to the martial arts world, I've never had the chance to go, and I don't know where the martial arts world is."
"Is it a place with rivers and lakes?" Shen Qingyu asked honestly.
Huawanli......
This is a difficult question to answer.
There's a saying in the martial arts world that everyone knows.
That means men can't beat women, and the old can't beat the young.
The less someone looks like they are capable, the more capable they are.
"Those loud and boisterous types are basically easy targets; one stab and they're gone," Hua Wanli said with a smile.
Upon hearing Hua Wanli's explanation, both Shen Qingyue and Shen Qingyu looked surprised.
Is it really that interesting to be in a place I've never been before?
"What was it like the first time you physically disciplined someone?"
"Were you scared? Nervous? Or did you feel forced into it?" Shen Qingyue asked softly.
While eating osmanthus cake, Hua Wanli wondered when she first laid a hand on someone.
It seems like it's been a long time...
"Um, I think I hit someone for the first time when I was seven years old."
When I was little, just like you, my mother forced me to learn this and that.
You have no idea how terrifying my mother is.
Her point of view was that if she could do it, I had to be able to do it too.
Even if she doesn't know how, she'll find a way to teach me.
I was living a life that was absolutely inhuman back then.
From the moment I opened my eyes, various governesses began to stare at me.
From dressing and eating to walking, everything must be done meticulously.
Back then, because I didn't learn the rules well, I don't know how many times I was punished with a ruler by the governess!
Later, I was sent to stay with my father for two months.
Those two months every year are like a dream come true for me.
My dad taught me some self-defense skills, and I'm pretty good at them.
After returning to my mother's place, I forgot all the rules and etiquette that the nannies had taught me.
When the nannies got angry, they would punish me by not allowing me to eat.
My mother had to go out for a few days, and I went hungry for two whole days!
I was so hungry I was dizzy.
In a fit of anger, I hit the governess who wouldn't let me eat.
She then stayed in bed for half a month.
"It was only after I beat up that governess that I realized how great it feels to let fists do the talking without having to reason with others," Hua Wanli said with a smile.
The Shen sisters gasped in shock.
Wow, you can do that?!
She actually hit her governess when she was seven years old.
"Didn't your mother punish you afterwards?" Shen Qingyu asked.
Hua Wanli nodded.
"Of course she'll be punished. That old nanny has always been with my mother and is considered one of her confidantes."
However, many people in the brothel disliked her.
He's a jerk who takes advantage of his age and has done a lot of disgusting things. He's just a little respectable because he nursed my mother.
As soon as my mother came back, she complained to her.
Of course my mother punished me, but not by not letting me eat. Instead, she made me kneel in the ancestral hall and reflect on my mistakes in front of the memorial tablets of the ancestors of Wanhua Tower.
Then I won't be afraid anymore.
After I finished reflecting on my actions, the first thing I did after I came out was to beat up that governess again.
They made her stay in bed for another half month.
Then she went to complain.
I went into the ancestral hall again.
After we got out, I beat her up again.
After I beat her up three times, she didn't dare to complain anymore. Instead, she would run away whenever she saw me and stay far away.
From then on, none of my governesses dared to punish me anymore.
Even when I didn't do well in my studies, they would always cover for me.
As for me, I also gave them some face. I studied when I was supposed to, and I also dealt with them seriously when my mother came to check.
"In short, it's all about everyone fooling each other. I'm comfortable, and they're comfortable too, right?" Hua Wanli continued with a smile.
The Shen Qingyue sisters...
They were truly shown a new world!
It seems that having a stronger fist does have its advantages.
Seeing the surprised expressions on Shen Qingyue and her sister's faces, Hua Wanli thought for a moment.
These two people in front of me are truly sheltered and haven't yet experienced the dangers outside.
So, Hua Wanli gave the two of them a summary.
"Actually, the relationships between people are quite strange."
If you're tough, others will be soft.
If you're weak, others will be strong and will keep forcing you to remain weak.
Therefore, when necessary, stand up for yourself, so that others will not dare to bully you.
"People are all bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong, no matter the occasion," Hua Wanli said earnestly.
Shen Qingyu is a person who understands right and wrong.
Shen Qingyue understood.
Yes, people in this world are all bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong.
During the three years my father was missing, my mother endured everything, and all the nobles in the capital dared to mock her.
Later, when her mother got angry, she went to the palace to file a complaint and stood up for herself. Then those people immediately changed their tune.
Shen Qingyue nodded, agreeing with Hua Wanli's statement.
"Yes, Miss Wanli is right, she makes a lot of sense."
When Hua Wanli heard Shen Qingyue praise her, she was happy and ate two more pastries.
"The pastries in your residence are quite good; they taste better than the ones I buy outside."
"However, it's a little worse than what my brother's cook made," Hua Wanli said as she ate.
Shen Qingyue wasn't angry at all; instead, she was a little curious.
The cooks in the Duke of Dingguo's mansion were brought over from the Shangguan family by my mother. Their skill level is considered top-notch in the capital. How could they be inferior to cooks found casually outside?
"Have you already found a chef for your teahouse?"
"Yes, I just found her the day before yesterday; she's a cook."
My face was scratched by some animal, and half of my face is ruined, but the food I make is delicious.
It tastes better than any food I've ever had from any chef in Beijing.
"Oh, by the way, my younger brother said he's inviting Madam to try some pastries these pastries. Why don't you come along?" Hua Wanli suggested.
Shen Qingyue thought about it and agreed.
She wanted to try it out and see how delicious the pastries made outside could be.
If it really tastes good, she'll see if she can learn how to make it.
This way, I can make it for my mother and grandmother later.
