Chapter 21 Accompaniment
"The eldest lady will gain weight if she eats too much, so the lady cut half of the eldest lady's portion."
Mama Pei said with a straight face.
"Half? If the young lady lacks food and clothing, won't she lose face? Ning Xiang immediately spoke back.
Jiang Yueyue saw that Ning Xiang really stood up for her, and felt that she was very loyal, and she couldn't throw it out at will in the future, and she must be kind to her, so that she could do things well.
She thought that Mama Pei would scold angrily and even take out Rouge Yan to punish Ning Xiang, but who knew that Mama Pei didn't say a word and ignored Ning Xiang.
This made the master and servant punch the cotton, and they couldn't get up if they wanted to.
Jiang Yueyue saw how powerful Mama Pei was, and she didn't dare to provoke her anymore. Seeing that Ning Xiang also died down, she was still a little unwilling, and only made a pitiful appearance, wanting to win Ning Xiang's sympathy, and a few more words to Mama Pei.
Ning Xiang could see it, but she deliberately pretended not to see it.
There was no sound in the room for a long time, and Jiang Yueyue was also bored, so she put away her thoughts and ate peacefully.
"Mama Pei, Madame instructed you to lead the young lady to the hall."
Ling'er ran back and forth between the two yards, and the lady remembered that she worked hard and didn't send more work, so she was freer and in a better mood. Ning Xiang heard the pleasure in her voice, and she was also happy, and she became more and more neat when she served Jiang Yueyue.
Although she asked Mama Pei to lead her over, Jiang Yueyue was worried about accompanying her, and she didn't forget to ask Ning Xiang to go with her.
In fact, even if she doesn't mention it, Ning Xiang will follow, Ning Xiang has her own considerations. In her previous life, she always did some homework for Jiang Yueyue, and her talent was no less than Jiang Yueyue's, but she couldn't replace her dancing and chess skills, and she had to find a way to make up for it in this life.
Following behind Jiang Yueyue, Ning Xiang had already figured out how to go next.
Not long after, the four of them came to the hall where Madame Jiang was a guest, and before they entered, they heard a burst of laughter like a silver bell, which made people listen like a spring breeze.
Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Jiang's voice came out: "It's terrible, I'm afraid that Yulan is going to bring my good girl." ”
"Yo, which of these little tricks was not taught to us by you Su Xueniang, you can say it." The voice of the reply is the same as the timbre of Fang Cai's laughter, and somehow it feels very beautiful.
Ning Xiang quickly remembered the identity of this woman, Xin Yulan, I heard that she was an official lady who was sold to the teaching workshop in the middle of the family, and she appeared in the teaching workshop when she was in the middle of the family, and a song "Feitian" with all the singing and dancing made her famous.
But then she didn't seem to be doing very well when she got married, and her husband died not long after, and the property under her name also belonged to Xin Yulan.
There are probably a lot of cats in it. Ning Xiang had never thought about these things before, but now that she thought about it carefully, something was wrong.
A few people entered the hall only to find that in fact, there was a woman in the hall, with a bookish atmosphere and elegant clothes, who only smiled slightly and watched Mrs. Jiang and Xin Yulan talking, and even drank tea in small sips.
"Yue'er, I've come to see the two masters."
Seeing Jiang Yueyue enter the door, the eldest lady hurriedly beckoned her to come to her.
"This is my good girl." Mrs. Jiang sat there, took Jiang Yueyue's hand and introduced, "This is Mr. Xin, this is Mr. Qi." ”
The moment she saw Qi Ying, Ning Xiang was a little uncomfortable.
Don't look at this woman who is gentle and gentle now, looking like a weak willow helping the wind, in fact, the teaching is the strictest, and most of the calligraphy and painting homework she assigned to Jiang Yueyue is from Ning Xiang's hands, and it is no wonder that Ning Xiang is weak-hearted.
The two female gentlemen pulled Jiang Yueyue to praise her, but it made the little girl a little fluttery, seeing her look like this, Qi Ying's face was a little bad, but she didn't talk about it much.
Mrs. Jiang cleaned up a room in her yard for study, and because it was inconvenient for her to get up and move, she asked Bi'er to take them there.
When she arrived at the door of the study, seeing that Ning Xiang was going to follow Jiang Yueyue in, Mama Pei frowned and dragged her hard.
"What are you doing in there?"
"Xiang'er came in to grind ink and make tea for me and the two masters, I ordered it yesterday." Jiang Yueyue doesn't want to face two gentlemen alone, so she can't suffocate her?
Mama Pei was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, it seemed that this was the case, she couldn't be an old woman watching the young girls do something, right?
Without waiting for her to react, Ning Xiang followed the three of them in, turned around and closed the door of the study, Mama Pei just wanted her to guard outside, and it was not easy to drag people out at this time, otherwise it would seem that the Zhizhou Mansion had no rules.
Xin Yulan entered the house and found a place to sit down first. She has been in the teaching workshop since she was a child, and in order to dance lightly, she wrapped a pair of jade feet, although she danced steadily, she was easily tired when she stood still.
Qi Ying first looked for the desk in the inner room, sat behind the bookshelf, and did not speak.
Seeing this, Ning Xiang and Jiang Yueyue glanced at each other, it seemed that they were going to learn dance skills first.
"Xiang'er, go make tea." Jiang Yueyue didn't know if Ning Xiang would make tea, but just ordered for the sake of face. Ning Xiang answered and walked over to the place where the small tea stove was placed.
Xin Yulan smiled, and said in her heart that these two little girls are interesting, just like little adults. It's no wonder that Su Xueniang was like this when she was a child.
Time is pressing, Mrs. Jiang wants to train Jiang Yueyue well before returning to Beijing to visit relatives, so that it is good to climb a noble family business, otherwise she is reluctant to spend a lot of money like water.
Xin Yulan is a big person, but he is very strict when he teaches classes.
When I first learned, I first opened it softly, making Jiang Yueyue's body more flexible, and naturally it was indispensable to stretch and press, but no matter how Jiang Yueyue wailed and shed tears, Xin Yulan would not be soft-hearted.
She herself came over like this, and as soon as she pinched Jiang Yueyue's bones, she knew that this was not a good material, so she could only spend more effort on basic skills.
In her previous life, Ning Xiang had never had such close contact with the two masters, it was Jiang Yueyue who learned something and came back to teach her, and she practiced it herself, mainly to cope with the homework that occupied Jiang Yueyue's rest time.
Now that she really saw the atmosphere of the class, Ning Xiang felt that her bones were softening. It's not easy for the official lady to do it, but she has to suffer like this. I was thinking about stealing from the teacher before, so I retreated.
Jiang Yueyue was pressed over there, feeling a pain all over her body, and after a glance, she found that Ning Xiang was sitting there making tea more comfortable than her, and she felt very aggrieved in her heart.
"Mr. Xin, I really can't hold on alone, can you let Xiang'er accompany me to the class?"
Xin Yulan was worried that Jiang Yueyue's skeleton was too open, and was thinking about whether to persuade her to give up, when she suddenly heard Jiang Yueyue say this, and subconsciously looked aside.
Ning Xiang was concentrating on pouring water into the teapot, holding a small copper kettle with her white slender wrist, the clear water flow threw an arc, and the steam fell on the tea leaves, and a burst of fragrance came to her nose.
Jiang Yueyue was in pain, and she couldn't notice this, but Xin Yulan's eyes lit up.
