Chapter 4 Mama Chen

She came back to her senses and listened to the old lady say: "I entered the palace a few days ago and met the queen, and the queen responded to my request and asked Mama Chen beside her to come to our house to live for a period of time, so as to teach some gentle etiquette rules." Aguan, don't be unhappy, Rourou you taught very well, but you haven't been in Beijing all these years, after all, there are some things on the surface, which are not quite the same as before, these Rourou have to learn. Moreover, Mama Chen is a first-class female official next to the queen, and having her to teach Rourou is also to give Rourou a good reputation. ”

Xie Shi's Awan hurriedly said: "Mother rest assured, my daughter-in-law is asking for it." Mama Chen has followed the queen for many years, and she is famous for her teaching Rou Rourou, which is a good thing that you can't ask for. It's just that I bothered my mother to bother for her, but my daughter-in-law didn't do a good job, and I was very ashamed. ”

The old lady sighed and said, "Silly child, Rourou is your daughter, and she is also the granddaughter of my in-laws, and she is the only girl in the Lu family's generation. Don't worry, although I don't want to enter the palace, the emperor has been thinking about your father's affection for many years, and the queen is a cousin of the Wang family after all, so she won't embarrass me. When she arrived in the palace, no one dared to show the old lady of the Lu family a look. ”

Xie Guan's eyes were hot, and she knew in her heart that when the old lady was a girl, she saved the emperor who was still the prince once, and she always had a bit of a relationship with the royal family after that. Later, the emperor married the old lady's cousin, who is now Empress Zheng. The queen and the old lady have always had a delicate relationship.

Over the years, Mrs. Lu rarely entered the palace except as a last resort, this time she went to ask the queen, on the surface to find someone to teach her granddaughter, in fact, it is hope, the queen expressed her attitude, and the marriage of Rourou in the future will be more dependent.

But she didn't expect that the queen actually sent Mama Chen!

That is the most powerful grandmother beside the queen, she has never married, and has always followed the queen, and even the emperor respects her a lot. There are the highest-ranking female officials around the queen to teach etiquette, which is a courtesy only for the royal lord in this dynasty, it seems that the queen has made up her mind to give the old lady this face.

Xie Wan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the marriage of the daughter of the Lu family, it seems that although the Lu family can't be the master, in the end, it shouldn't be completely up to people.

Lu Binrou listened to it quite confused next to her, and she was also a little excited to hear the gossip. She was once taught by her father, and she was much more open than ordinary daughters who heard about their shyness. Besides, the elders talked about her in front of her, and they didn't avoid her, she knew, and they should want her to know this.

She also understands that when she grows up, she knows very little about the affairs of the back house, and it will not work to marry someone in the future.

However, this qiē understanding becomes seemingly trivial when the elders mention the grandmother. Her mind is full of gossip and curiosity, and her grandmother seems to have a lot of secret things that she doesn't know!

And the mother seemed to know very well, so she had to find time to inquire with her.

However, thinking of being taught by her grandmother, Lu Binrou was a little depressed. In fact, it turned out that her mother had been quite strict with her in terms of etiquette and rules, which was most of the reason why she had always had a good reputation for being dignified although she had done something out of the ordinary from time to time over the years.

The other half of the reason is due to her appearance, Lu Binrou's face is quite soft and dignified, which is exactly the standard appearance that everyone should have in the eyes of the world.

Lu Binrou herself actually doesn't like her appearance very much, she selfishly feels that she was born too upright and too featureless.

However, this kind of appearance is very flattering, and most people will unnaturally regard her as a standard virtuous lady. Even the slightest fault is often ignored and let go - either to have a good reputation is important, whether you are right or not, in the eyes of others, it is right......

But at this time, there is a strange grandmother, or the queen's side, she must be very strict, and her little caution from time to time must be put away, and she will always maintain the appearance of everyone's beautiful lady......

Oh my God, it's hard to think about!

Lu Bin frowned softly, but he also knew that this was for the elders' own good. The capital is not as good as the border city, and she didn't leave until she was seven years old here, and she knew it very well.

The few days when she got home passed quickly, and she still lived in the same yard where she had lived in her childhood.

The eldest aunt had already arranged all the qiē, obviously, she had already inquired about Lu Binrou's hobbies and habits, and the courtyard and room were arranged to her liking. Even when eating, there are a few more famous dishes from the Northwest on the table.

Lu Binrou said that she was very satisfied with such a housekeeper who ironed everything.

The only thing that is a little awkward is that there are too many more people in her courtyard than in the border city. There are two first-class maids and two second-class maids waiting in the house, and there are also a number of mothers-in-law and little girls in the yard.

On this, the eldest aunt also said that she had considered Lu Binrou's request and tried to streamline the staff.

In the face of so many strangers, Lu Binrou said that there was a lot of pressure.

As for the reason why she is surrounded by newcomers...... In short, the girl who has followed her since she was a child has reached marriageable age, and before returning to Beijing, her mother is in charge, and she stays in the border city when she marries. The grandmother who taught her was also old, and Lu Binrou felt sorry for her that she was too old to withstand the bumps in the road, and begged her mother to allow her to stay there with her children.

And Lu Binrou, whose special growth experience in the border city determines that she is different from ordinary ladies. She is very self-reliant, and she doesn't like strangers to get close to her, so she refuses to accept the new maid arranged for her by her mother.

In the end, Xie had no choice but to write to the old lady and sister-in-law, asking her to equip all the girls in Lu Binrou's yard at home according to the rules of Beijing.

On the way back to Beijing, the girls and mothers-in-law around the Xie family took care of her. When the carriage incident happened, it happened to be a coincidence, the girl went to the back car to pick up things immediately, the little boy had a fever and was short of manpower, and Mama was temporarily transferred to take care of it, and there was no one else around Lu Binrou.

Otherwise, a girl from the Hou Mansion, where would such a thing happen.

This day is the day when the legendary Mama Chen came to the house. Lu Binrou got up early, finished washing, and was pressed on the chair by the first-class maid Crescent Moon beside her for a long time.

After finishing the makeup, she took a look in the mirror, yo, on this makeup, the already gentle and upright appearance looks even more decent. However, the new moon tied a few light-colored ribbons to her hair, and the girl's original childishness added a bit of pure temperament.

Lu Binrou was very happy and said with a smile: "Xinyue, your craftsmanship is so good, it turns out that the plain clothes around me make me dissatisfied every time I make up......

Speaking of this, her mood was gloomy, Su Yi will also be the wife of the official family in the future, and she doesn't know if there will be a chance to see her again in the future.

Lu Binrou put away her lost feelings, smiled again, and said, "Let's go, go to the hall to meet that grandma." ”

When she arrived in the hall, Mama Chen sat under her grandmother, and her grandmother called Lu Binrou to give her a salute.

Although Lu Binrou is a serious concubine of the Hou Mansion and her status is not low, she is white without a title. Although Mama Chen was born as a slave, she is now a female official of no low grade. is also a person around the queen, who can be regarded as an elder, and she can withstand this gift.

But Mama Chen still got up and resolutely supported her and didn't let her worship.

Lu Binrou glanced at her calm and dignified face, although she was a little apprehensive in her heart, she was also a little more relieved. Such a person, although he may be strict and has bigger rules, but he should not be the kind of evil grandmother in the legend.

In the future, as long as you act according to etiquette, you should not be so sad.
