Chapter 59: Etiquette Norms
"Second Miss! Today we're going to talk about the standing posture first. Second, do you know what kinds of standing postures are into? "The picture is so respectful, with a serious look on his face.
Yuan Shanjia nodded and sat upright, "I know." The ancients had a saying: 'Solid and square, flat shoulders and back, arms like a drum.' Two inches of leisure, the end of the face of the tassel. The end of the strand is full, the body does not shake the elbow, and it is said to stand upright; Because of the co-existence of the micro chime; Because it is said to stand solemnly with a chime; Because of admiration, he said that he was humble. ’”
Tu Mo nodded, "Second Miss said it very well, it seems that she loves to read very much." Now please stand up and show the slave how you stand. ”
Yuan Shanjia bowed his head and got up and stood in front of the chair.
I saw her slightly straight, flat, her hands together, hidden in her sleeves, casually on her lower abdomen, her body did not move like a bell, standing there was a landscape.
After looking at it for a while, Yuan Shanjia didn't shake at all, and his face was as usual.
She approving: "The second lady's etiquette norms are very good, and she is very familiar with Jingli. In our daily life, we use the most warp standing and arching. The warp standing is a daily standing posture, while the arching is a standing posture in front of the elders, requiring deference and peace. Regardless of which type of standing these postures are, we are required to stand naturally, not to stiffen our bodies, and to have soft arms, so that our clothes form a natural arc against our bodies. Second Miss has done a good job of these. However, it still needs to be practiced in daily life. ”
Yuan Shanjia nodded, indicating that he knew.
"In addition, as the second lady, the solemn and humble will be used relatively rarely, and you only need to practice it occasionally, but remember not to forget its essentials, the range of body bows must be mastered, and you must not be rude in front of the superior."
"Yes, yes." Yuan Shanjia should arrive.
The one who is on the throne generally means royalty. In this era of the supremacy of imperial power, if you offend the royal family, then especially the emperor, then it means that your own family will be wearing small shoes.
His father just had some military power in his hands, and he never thought of rebellion, so the emperor could wear small shoes for his father at any time, which shows that he is not generous today.
Seeing that Yuan Shanjia was so cooperative, he didn't ask any more questions, and explained directly: "Then let's talk about sitting posture next." Sitting posture is extremely important for everyone's girlfriends. In any case, we can only make a quarter of a chair, with our feet on the ground, our knees together, and our hands on our knees to our thighs. Don't lean back, don't spread your knees apart, and don't swing your feet off the ground. Even if you can't get your feet on the floor because the stool is too high, keep your knees together and your feet drawn into the chair. ”
Yuan Shanjia nodded in understanding.
After the picture described the squatting posture and the walking posture respectively, Yuan Shanjia began to practice.
As a result, Yuan Shanjia practiced walking, sitting, and squatting all morning.
Qing'er watched Yuan Shanjia practice hard all morning, it was past lunch time, and Tu Mo didn't see the trend of stopping, and felt a little heartache for her own miss, so she carefully suggested: "Miss, Tu Mo, you must be tired after practicing all morning." Why don't you take a break for a while? ”
Yuan Shanjia looked at Tu Mo and asked for her opinion.
Tu Mo looked at the sky, and then looked at the faint sweat on Yuan Shanjia's forehead, and said compassionately: "Miss's practice this morning went very well, now that it's noon, let's have a good rest after lunch." ”
She secretly praised in her heart: These two young ladies have not complained or been dissatisfied after practicing all morning, and it seems that their temperament is still good.
As for the past lunch time, it was also intentional, I wanted to see the attitude of the second young lady, so that I could judge how I wanted to teach this second young lady of the Yuanfu.
Not everyone deserves the best teaching. And it just so seems that the second miss is quite suitable.
Qing'er listened to Tu'er's words, and sighed secretly in her heart.
It was so harsh that he trained all morning, and he practiced the etiquette that had been done very standardly.
In her opinion, her own lady has done a very standard job, and she feels very pleasing to the eye when she looks at it. But Tu Mo has always asked Miss to redo it with a slight smile. The young lady did not even object.
Now Qing'er saw Tu Mao's smile, and her heart trembled a little.
Qing'er and Ran Zhu came in with two trays and set up their lunch.
Tu Mo has been standing by and has not left.
Qing'er opened her mouth, didn't she say she was resting? Why are you still here?
But when she saw that Yuan Shanjia didn't speak, she shut up and concentrated on cooking for her own young lady and comforting her young lady's hard work this morning.
As soon as Yuan Shanjia saw that the picture was not leaving, he knew that this was to see her dining etiquette.
Dining etiquette is actually very simple, that is, eat silently, don't talk while eating, don't make a sound when eating, don't eat too much.
Ran Zhu saw that he didn't leave, and he also understood the intention.
She quietly pulled Qing'er's sleeve and prevented her from giving Yuanshan Jiabu vegetables.
Of course, there is another reason that Qing'er has too much cloth for Miss!!
The correct cloth dish should be based on the owner's face and eyes, rather than taking it for granted that he thinks it is delicious and good for the body to the host to eat. Qing'er's move is already a big taboo.
Tu Mo was able to observe on the side, and when he saw Ran Zhu's movements, he had a good impression of this maid, and she was a person who knew the rules.
She stepped forward in two steps and waved at Qing'er.
Before Qing'er understood, Ran Zhu had already handed the chopsticks to Tu Mo.
This made Tu Mo feel even more appreciative.
Tu Mo moved Qing'er's dish away and placed a new dish in front of Yuan Shanjia.
Qing'er looked at Tu Mo in confusion as she personally prepared vegetables for her own miss, and her own young lady did not refuse, feeling a little strange in her heart.
But her rule of survival is to try not to ask more, so she just glanced at it, buried her doubts in her heart, and decided to wait for the meeting to go down and ask Ran Zhu. Ran Zhu looked very understanding.
Yuan Shanjia smiled when eating, savoring the food, the corners of his mouth squirmed slightly, and his eyes revealed a comfortable feeling, which made people have a raw appetite at a glance, and felt that this food should be very delicious.
And she doesn't eat much every time, and the cloth dishes are also very appropriate, and she will not clip more vegetables every time, and she will put a chopstick, and then clip it after eating.
The meal time took a full two quarters of an hour before it was successfully completed with the tacit understanding of several people.
After eating, Tu Mo naturally retired: "Second Miss behaved very well today, please rest well, and we will continue tomorrow." ”
"Thank you for the compliment. If you need anything, you can tell Qing'er and Ran Zhu to do it. Yuan Shanjia smiled very brightly, but it was rude.
Tu Mo didn't refuse, "The slave thanked the second miss." ”
