Chen Ping was also a man of action. Since he had already promised his daughter that he would bring him to Principal Chen, even if he didn’t think highly of it, they would still go. As a result on the third day after he had promised Chen Meng’er, he decided to bring his daughter, Chen Meng’er, to principal Chen after breakfast.
Chen Haoguo and Chen Haoxuan took a few bites of rice from their rice bowls and couldn’t wait to go out to play with their companions. It had only been a few days since they left school. The two brothers had to take advantage of this time to play.
Chen Meng’er, on the other hand, ate her breakfast slowly, spoonful by spoonful.
Ever since Chen Meng’er had the ability to take care of herself, she chose to eat by herself instead of her mother, Chen Meng’er.
Chen Ping looked at his daughter. She was small, but she was like an adult. She held a small spoon and scooped her own food. Moreover, she wasn’t eating like a normal child. Her elegant little appearance was pleasing to the eye.
In her previous life, she had specially learned about etiquette. In Chen Meng’er’s previous life, although her father didn’t dote on her and her mother didn’t love her, she had never missed out on anything that a daughter of an aristocratic family should learn.
Although Chen Meng’er’s parents in her previous life didn’t like the fact that Chen Meng’er was a girl, in those aristocratic families, the girl also had a certain role to play. She could help the family build relationships and enhance the relationship between the families.
And in aristocratic families, this rule was very important. Therefore, in order to sell Chen Meng’er for a good price, Chen Meng’er’s parents in her previous life spent a lot of effort and hired a famous etiquette teacher from England. This was a teacher who specialized in teaching the etiquette of the British royal family.
When Chen Meng’er began to learn etiquette, she was still in a period of ignorance. She still had expectations for the love of her parents. She thought that as long as she performed perfectly, as long as she could learn all the things that her parents wanted her to learn well.
Then her parents would see how good she was, fall in love with her, and be proud of her as a daughter.
And when Chen Meng’er realized that her parents didn’t care. It was too late to change.
Those things that she had learned were already deeply embedded in her bones. Just like etiquette, no matter how deliberately Chen Meng’er did it, her actions still carried elegance and nobility.
Just like how Chen Meng’er became the queen of the underworld, it was not only because of her skills and methods. It was also because of the noble temperament that she exuded from her every move.
Chen Ping looked at his daughter’s adorable little appearance and his hand itched. He could not help but pinch his daughter’s little face, he said, “Our Meng’er is really good-looking. She even looks so comfortable when eating.”
After Chen Meng’er heard her father, Chen Ping’s words, she swallowed the porridge in her mouth and looked up at her mother, Liu Juan, saying, “Mom, Mom, look. Dad pinched my face again. It hurts so much.”
Chen Meng’er knew that in this family, her father was under her mother’s control.
After Chen Meng’er got along with this family, only then did she know that this was how couples got along. A husband and wife should not be like those so-called aristocrats who treated each other with basic respect but should get along with each other in harmony. There was a certain emotional foundation. Only then did she know that husband and wife were equal and respected each other. If they encountered any matter, they would discuss things together before they could solve the problem.. It was not those so-called aristocratic couples who only played with each other and had nothing to do with each other.
