    "Although a commoner woman is an English person, she has become a member of the Chen family since she has married into the Chen family. It is not that the commoner woman wants to be an English person. It is actually as Mr. Liu said just now: 'The hair and skin of the body are inherited from the parents'."  Civilian women cannot decide their birth and nationality, but they can decide what kind of husband they will marry. This is where they are luckier than Baosi and Daji, because they do not have the possibility to choose their husbands. " At this point, Sarah turned her head.  Looking at Chen Hong, his eyes were filled with happiness.  "I am luckier than Daji and Baosi. I have found my right husband, but not only will they never have the chance to get the same happiness as me, but they will also be labeled as 'beauties are a disaster'." After listening to Sarah's words  , Liu Xihong wanted to refute, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't find a word to refute her.  At this time, Guo Songtao looked at Sara with a little more respect.  He could not imagine that a Western woman was so proficient in Chinese culture.  Liu Xihong's face turned red and white. He unconsciously turned his head and glanced at Guo Songtao, as if he wanted to ask for help, but this time Guo Songtao turned a blind eye and had no intention of helping him out.  Liu Xihong was so angry that he glared at Chen Tingxuan and said, "Mr. Chen, is this the daughter-in-law of your Chen family? I have learned a lesson now!" "Mr. Liu does not need to vent his anger on others. A gentleman in the world must respect himself.  Love yourself and don't be arrogant, otherwise you will be humiliated." Sara smiled slightly and said, "What do you think Mr. Liu said?" Liu Xihong was speechless again. He glared at Sara with a thin face.  Twisted with anger, Xiao Chen Wei saw his ferocious face and looked at his mother with extremely ferocious eyes. Instead of being afraid, he instinctively blocked his body in front of his mother and glared at Liu Xihong.  "What Mr. Liu just said. The women of the common people have benefited a lot," Sarah glanced at Liu Xihong, turned to salute Guo Songtao with a smile, "The time for the dog to teach is approaching, the women of the people will leave with their dogs." "Madam, please excuse me." Guo Songtao  said.  Seeing Sarah leaving with Chen Wei, Liu Xihong couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and picked up the last bowl of tea, opened the lid, drank it all, and then slammed the tea bowl on the table.  He cupped his hands and said, "Goodbye!" Seeing Liu Xihong's rude behavior, Guo Songtao on the side was stunned.  The last action of "bringing tea to guests" was originally done by the host.  "Seeing off guests." Chen Tingxuan said expressionlessly.  The old housekeeper shouted "Send off guests -" Liu Xihong strode towards the door of the living room without looking back. Seeing this, Guo Songtao sighed helplessly and said goodbye to Chen Tingxuan and his son. Chen Tingxuan stepped forward with a smile, holding Guo Songtao's hand.  Hand, send him out personally.  Chen Hong followed behind his father.  Seeing that the expressions of Chen Tingxuan and his son were the same as when they first met, Guo Songtao felt relieved and got on the carriage.  Back in the living room, Chen Tingxuan stood in silence for a long time facing the two chairs where Guo Songtao and Liu Xihong had just sat.  He was clearly thinking.  "My father also saw it just now. Mr. Guo wanted to make friends with us, but that man named Liu" "When my father and son arrived in England at the beginning of the year and were living on the streets without food and clothing and almost died - where was the Qing court?  Where? It was hard to find a good envoy like Mr. Guo who cared about overseas Chinese, but the Qing court just appointed such a deputy envoy" Just when Chen Hong complained to his father.  Sarah brought 8-year-old Chen Wei to Chen Tingxuan.  As soon as the grandfather saw his grandson, he immediately came down with a smile and patted Chen Wei's little face.  "Weier, the person sitting on this chair just now was Mr. Guo Songtao. What do you think of him?" Chen Tingxuan asked seemingly casually.  In Chen Wei's impression, Guo Songtao was a kind and kind grandfather, and he immediately replied without thinking: "Weier likes Grandpa Guo." Chen Tingxuan smiled and said to Chen Hong and Sara: "Look, my grandson is still very smart.  Ah¡ª¡ª" Then he pointed to another chair, "The person sitting on this chair is Mr. Liu Xihong Liu¡ª¡ª" Before Mr. Chen could finish speaking, little Chen Wei walked quickly towards the chair. Before he could wait,  When everyone present reacted, Xiao Chen Wei kicked the chair with all his strength, and with a "bang bang", the Eight Immortals chair, which was much taller than himself, fell to the ground.  "Weier doesn't want him!" Chen Wei pouted and said angrily.  ¡°Obviously, Liu Xihong¡¯s ferocious face had already formed a shadow in Chen Wei¡¯s young mind.  "Well -" Chen Tingxuan nodded thoughtfully, and then changed his smile to tease little Chen Wei who had just finished kicking the Eight Immortals Chair and was panting a little tiredly, "Wei'er is good, we don't want it.  , come on, take this chair out and burn it!Seeing Chen Tingxuan's unexpected move, Sara was slightly startled at first, but she immediately understood what Chen Tingxuan was planning to do.  Before Guo Songtao arrived, Sarah had received a long letter from the Rothschild family messenger entrusted by Lin Yizhe.  In the letter, Lin Yizhe explained in detail the situation of Guo Songtao and Liu Xihong, the two imperial envoys to the UK, and asked Sarah to "act with caution" if necessary.  Because of Lin Yizhe's warning in the letter, Sarah had always been very wary of Liu Xihong, and what happened just now really made her murderous.  But what she didn¡¯t expect was that her father-in-law would have the same idea.  At this time, Sarah looked at her father-in-law who was happily teasing her grandson. After some thought, she still did not show Lin Yizhe's letter to Chen Tingxuan.  At about the same time, in the carriage returning to the legation, Liu Xihong was still arguing with Guo Songtao, blushing and thick-necked.  "That venomous foreign woman repeatedly humiliated the lower official, but Mr. Guo was indifferent and didn't say a word. It really chilled the lower official!" "This is Yunsheng, you are bringing the humiliation upon yourself! This is not the Qing Dynasty, but Yunsheng wants the British to follow him.  The etiquette of the Qing Dynasty is something that is difficult for others to do!" Guo Songtao thought of Liu Xihong's words to Sara, "Daji of the West", and became angry, "Is it true that someone's daughter-in-law is called an envoy of Daji?"  He said: Those who are not of my race must have a different heart! He, the Chen family, can even forget the ancestral ceremonial crown and give up the great defense of Huayi! " Liu Xihong mentioned Sara!  , immediately his anger rose and his voice became louder, "So what if she is Daji?!" "Look, look, look!" Guo Songtao stamped his feet and shouted, "Yunsheng, what nonsense are you talking about? You are so polite and polite.  "Hearing Guo Songtao's scolding, Liu Xihong realized that he had lost his temper, but he still said eloquently: "I was born as a Qing Dynasty ghost and died as a Qing Dynasty ghost. How can I leave the country and be abandoned by the Celestial Empire?  The people abandoned their royal status and did not hesitate to carry away the tombs of their ancestors and go abroad to seek profits. In fact, they have committed their own sins. Therefore, the heaven has not asked about it for many years. If they can devote themselves to becoming kings and serve the country, they may be able to atone for their previous sins today.  From what I can tell, wearing foreign clothes and marrying a foreign woman, although this person is not born in that place, he is no different from a foreigner! Being an envoy of the imperial court, speaking out to teach these people who are willing to do evil is to protect the face of the imperial court!"  "Safeguarding the face of the imperial court?" Guo Songtao said angrily, "It has been reported that the dignified envoys of the Qing Dynasty do not even know the basic ways of being a guest! You have completely lost the face of the imperial court!" "The dignified envoys of the Celestial Dynasty,  He actually condescended to visit a merchant's house. If the news spreads, what will happen to the court's face?" Liu Xihong stiffened his neck like a fighting rooster, "What I did today was to protect the dignity of the state body and the imperial court!"  "How dare you speak like this!" Guo Songtao was furious. "I have always respected you, Mr. Guo, for being upright and upright. I never thought that you, Mr. Guo, could be so sycophantic. This really chilled me to the extreme!"  When Guo Songtao was extremely angry, he knew that today the personal friendship between the two of them had disappeared. He simply broke his heart and completely broke his face. "As an official of the imperial court, Mr. Guo has done something harmful to the country. He must report it to the imperial court."  ! The court will decide what is right and wrong at that time! " "Okay, okay! - So you, Liu Yunsheng, are going to take advantage of me?" Guo Songtao was shaking with anger and said, "Just fine!  It¡¯s just that Guo has been blind for so many years! He didn¡¯t realize what kind of person you are, Liu Yunsheng!¡±  !" Liu Xihong snorted and turned away, as if he didn't bother to argue with Guo Songtao anymore.  Guo Songtao stopped talking. When the carriage arrived at the embassy, ??the two got off the carriage and left without saying a word.  It was already evening. Guo Songtao entered his room and suddenly found that his newly married Mrs. Liang in Beijing was sitting in the room, looking through his diary.  Seeing Guo Songtao come in, Mrs. Liang immediately put down the diary in her hand, walked up to him quickly, and took off Guo Songtao's coat.  "Why are you still not sleeping?" Guo Songtao saw the beautiful Liang, and the unhappiness caused by the quarrel with Liu Xihong just now dissipated. He asked casually, but his voice still seemed unnatural.  "If you don't come back, I won't be able to sleep alone." Mrs. Liang noticed the gloomy look on Guo Songtao's face. She said softly, moved the chair and let Guo Songtao sit down, "I just happened to see your diary.  ¡± ¡°Have you read any books?¡± Guo Songtao was slightly startled when he heard what she said, ¡°Why haven¡¯t I seen you say that before?¡± ¡°I haven¡¯t read many books, only "Young Children".  "Study", "Three Character Classic" and "Daughter's Classic", I just know some words." Liang's face.Shang Yi blushed and replied a little sheepishly.  "Then can you understand the diary I wrote?" Guo Songtao asked again with a thought in his heart.  "I don't understand some words, but I can guess them," Liang laughed. "When I encounter a word I don't know, I can guess what it is by comparing the sentences before and after it."
