Chapter 35: Etiquette
Glancing at the successfully registered "Wuha and Other Ninety-Nine", Ning Hua sighed, it was just an unreliable nickname, and it couldn't affect the determination of the gods to explore the new world. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Ning Hua tried to use the various functions of Tiai, one of which was a "shake" option, Ning Hua clicked on it, and the system automatically searched for a large number of people nearby, Ning Hua hurriedly swept the screen, almost all of them were men, and most of the nicknames were similar to "Commander XX Guards Regiment The most handsome man XX XX" and the like......
Sure enough, it was the commander's mansion, and the people nearby were all the commander's soldiers.
It was probably because there were very few female species in the vicinity for several kilometers, and Ning Hua's "Tiai" kept reminding her that someone was submitting a friend application to her. The communicator "ding-ding-ding" non-stop.
Many people came up to her first and asked her if she wanted to come out for a drink.
There were many people who asked, and Ning Hua probably understood that being the commander of the guards might be too lonely.
There were too many friend reminders sent nearby, and Ning Hua felt a little annoyed, so he turned off the function that could be discovered by people nearby. The communicator finally fell silent.
Ning Hua searched the commander's homepage, and after a closer look, it turned out that the commander's office was operating, and some news about the commander's tour of the Leeds system was released, which was very boring.
The next day, Ning Hua arrived in the hall of the annex building on time to wait, and not long after, a guard officer came with an elegant woman. Ning Hua was first attracted by her clear blue eyes.
The blue-eyed lady took the lead in speaking to Ning Hua: "Miss Ning Hua, hello, I am the teacher who the commander invited to teach you etiquette, and I am currently working at the Imperial Capital Diplomatic Academy, specializing in etiquette. In the future, you can call me Professor Manda. ā
"Yes, Professor Manda."
Professor Manda had a standard perfect smile on her face, "The etiquette lessons I'm going to teach you this morning include the daily behavior of the commander's personal handmaiden, and dining etiquette. Please come with me to the restaurant. ā
Ning Hua turned sideways and asked Professor Manda to go first, and then followed Professor Manda to the cafeteria.
After taking a seat at the table, Manda pulled out a document from her handbag that read "Commander's Personal Handmaid Supplemental Regulations" in large bold letters.
She put this document in front of Ning Hua: "Miss Ning Hua, this is a supplementary regulation for the commander's personal maidservant, and every article in it has been reported to the commander for approval, so all your future behaviors must not exceed the provisions in the supplementary regulations, please open the document and take a look." ā
Ning Hua opened the "Supplementary Regulations for the Commander's Private Handmaids", which was full of articles.
Professor Manda explained to Ning Hua across the table: "The commander's usual routine is to get up at six in the morning and go to bed at twelve in the evening, so correspondingly, your schedule needs to correspond to the commander's schedule, you have to get up before six o'clock in the morning every day, and it is best to be able to put on a delicate makeup." ā
"The Commander will wake up and have an hour of physical training, and all you need to do is prepare tea for the Commander at seven o'clock in the morning, and then serve the Commander with dinner."
Professor Manda stopped at this point, because an attendant came over and handed the two coffee, Professor Manda elegantly picked up the coffee cup, took a small sip, and then continued: "After the commander has finished eating, he may go to the barracks, or the government and parliament to handle official business, even if he stays in the mansion to work, he will no longer need your services this morning, unless there is a special order from the commander." ā
It seems that the servant girl who is a commander does not have any heavy work to do, Ning Hua nodded in her heart, feeling that the work of the servant girl is really simple to do.
"It is important to remember that you are the Commander's personal handmaiden, serving only the Commander. Tasks such as cleaning the house or delivering laundry are handled by a special person, and you don't have to do it yourself, and in this mansion, you are only under the first guard Jean and the butler Primo. ā
The position was only below Jean and Primo, Ning Hua secretly raised her eyebrows, she had thought that she was the lowest slave before.
Manda continued: "The daily work is to be at the behest of the commander, and there is no hard work except for serving tea and waiting for dinner in the morning. ā
"Can I move freely when the commander doesn't have an arrangement?" Ning Hua interjected at the right time.
"Of course, you can, but be careful that you'll be on call when the commander needs you. Also, if you want to go out, you need to report to the commander for approval, and make sure the communicator is powered and unblocked at all times. ā
Ning Hua nodded to indicate that he understood.
"Also, the guards and attendants of the commander's mansion, including you, belong to the commander's personal internal affairs personnel in their positions, so they need to be different from the outside world in terms of title, and the internal affairs personnel should call the commander 'Your Highness', and only when communicating with the outside world can you call Your Highness's title, that is, 'Commander', in order to show respect, you can also add the word 'Adult' after the commander."
Professor Manda pointed to the "Supplementary Regulations for the Commander's Private Handmaids" and said, "This contains the personal information, position, work content, and contact information of all the personnel in the Commander's Mansion, which you can read and understand when you need it." ā
"There are also specific provisions on your dining specifications, customized clothes, daily necessities procurement, etc., so I won't introduce them more, you can check it yourself."
"Okay Professor Manda, I'll read these terms carefully."
Professor Manda raised his hand to beckon the attendant and asked him to remove the coffee cup in front of him: "Now we start the dining etiquette training, in different occasions, the dining etiquette is also different, if the commander needs to accompany the meal, please pay extra attention to your dining etiquette to be elegant and correct." ā
"Now, please use the meal in its entirety, if there is something that is not up to standard, I will raise it with you and make a correct demonstration."
Ning Hua put away the "Supplementary Regulations for the Commander's Private Handmaid", sat down, and waited for the attendant to serve the food.
To be honest, the gods are really a little hungry at this time.
The attendant held a tray in one hand and a teapot in the other, bowed and placed the tray between Professor Manda and Ning Hua.
There were two white solids the size of pills on the tray, and the attendant gently poured water from the pot on top of the two white solids, and something interesting happened, after the white solids the size of pills touched the water, they slowly expanded, and grew straight like a small tree, growing to the thickness of a thumb.
Ning Hua glanced at Professor Manda, who still had an elegant and standard smile on her face, and she stretched out her hand to make a "please" gesture to Ning Hua.
Ning Hua was a little confused, could it be that the things that the commander usually eats are so simple? And they didn't even provide a knife and fork? Or is this the standard of a maidservant's meal in a formal setting?
Under the gaze of Professor Manda, Ning Hua slowly picked up one of the white solids, and gently pinched it with his thumb and forefinger, it felt relatively soft, but if he ate it directly with his hands, wouldn't it be too elegant?
Ning Hua glanced at Professor Manda again, and the professor gave her an encouraging look, which seemed to say, "Eat quickly." ā
Although it was a little awkward, the god calmly put the white solid in his mouth and chewed it, but there was no taste......
But Professor Manda on the other side suddenly became so strange, why was the standard perfect elegant smile on her face missing? Is it because the gods are not elegant enough? Ning Hua was secretly curious.
Professor Manda coughed lightly: "That, let me remind you, Miss Ning Hua, the one you just ate is actually a wet towel used to wipe your hands......"
The spacious and tall dining room seemed a little cramped for a while.
With a calm face, the god took the "wipes for wiping hands" out of his mouth......
Ning Hua wanted to ask Professor Manda at this moment, why didn't he say it before? Why!
It must have been the commander who motioned to the man in front of him to humiliate the god in this way...... Ning Hua was very sad and indignant in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face. If she had mana in her body at this moment, she must erase the memory of the woman on the other side of the mind just now.
Professor Manda is worthy of being a high-level talent from the Foreign Affairs Academy, in order to avoid Ning Hua's embarrassment, she pretended that nothing had happened just now, and took another wet towel to wipe her hands.
But the embarrassed god was still awkwardly silent......
What the dining process was like later, Ning Hua couldn't remember it clearly.
Her mouth seemed to have the unique sticky taste of the hand wipe. She seemed to make a few more mistakes in the middle, and Professor Manda patiently explained and demonstrated for her. In the end, Professor Manda hurriedly left the commander's mansion in Ning Hua's "grateful" eyes.
