The afternoon sun was still blazing, and Zhang Meishou knelt under the elm tree, with a futon under his knees, and his palms facing up in front of him.

Sweat wet her fine forehead, and her cheeks, which were originally pink, were red with heat.

Beside her, a middle-aged woman wearing a dark flower gown with a blue straight collar and a dark blue headscarf on her head was holding a rosewood ring ruler in her hand, and her face was stern.

"If you are punished for not kneeling straight, how can you learn the rules if you continue like this?" As she spoke, she raised her ring ruler and wanted to hit Zhang Meishou's palm.

Zhang Meixian was slightly startled, and subconsciously wanted to go in to dissuade her, but the next moment she saw Zhang Meishou's hand suddenly separated and hidden behind her back, and the ring ruler couldn't hit her at all.

"How dare you hide?" The middle-aged woman with a slightly flabby and droopy face said angrily: "I have taught so many ladies to be beautiful, and I have never seen someone as disobedient as you!" ”

She is a nurturing grandmother invited by the Song family with a lot of money, in order to teach Zhang Meishou rules and etiquette, and strive not to make mistakes at the June flower party.

This grandmother surnamed Ke is said to have been born as a palace maid and is quite prestigious in this area.

But in the past two days, Zhang Meishou is very suspicious that this person's prestige is probably built up by tossing people.

Who says you can't take a break to learn the rules? Even when this grandmother herself eats and drinks well, she can only kneel on the side to practice kneeling posture - did she come to teach the rules, or did she come as a guest?

Besides, at this half-baked level, you dare to claim to come out of the palace?

If it were, it must have been expelled from the palace because the rules were too bad, right?

"Tell me, what's wrong with my kneeling position?" Zhang Meishou asked her rhetorically.

"The body is not straight enough!"

Zhang Meishou relaxed a little, simply sat on his feet, straightened his back more easily, and asked, "Mama, what about this?" ”

"It's barely rude!" Mama Ke said with a straight face.

Zhang Meishou laughed.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Mama, when kneeling, pay attention to the buttocks and heels, as a sign of respect. When kneeling, you need to stand upright and support your body with your knees and toes, rather than using your back as you say, and you have to keep your back straight – as a result, your posture is stiff and not good-looking. Zhang Meishou corrected.

She did the rules of her life in her previous life, and she endured to let this half-grandmother teach, which was nothing, and she reliably tossed her blindly to show her strictness and seriousness, and she was not satisfied with what she did, which was inevitably boring.

Zhang Meishou raised his hand and asked Ah Li to help her up, and simply stopped kneeling.

What should I do if the scorching sun tans her?

Her time should not be wasted on things that would make someone else's reputation and do no harm to herself.

"What are you talking about? Where did you learn it? Mama Ke frowned: "Who allowed you to get up?" ”

Zhang Meishou ignored her words and said directly: "Also, when kneeling, you should first lower your right knee, you also taught it wrong." ”

"It's really a joke, which knee to go down first, and there is no way to say it?"

"No, no. But lower the right knee first, it is easier to stabilize the body, and the posture can naturally be more calm. Zhang Meishou didn't bother to listen to her rebuttal, and casually made up: "I once heard the sister of the Qin family teach me - the nobles in the palace are all like this, and Mama Ke is from the palace maid, how can she not know?" ”

Mama Ke's expression froze, and then she sneered and said, "I will naturally teach you these in the future!" As the saying goes, learn to walk before you run. And you can't do the basic etiquette well, and you keep saying that you have a good posture and a calm temperament, which is too hasty! ”

"You should be able to tell at a glance whether my rules are good or not. What is the reason for saying that I am not doing well everywhere, and I have to teach from scratch? Zhang Meishou said unceremoniously.

Is it to teach the rules or to show yourself?

The face has been enough in the past two days, but people refuse to ask for it, she is too lazy to act.

"What a sharp mouth! You're good at everything, so if you teach me! "Mama Ke has never been so disrespectful, and she thinks that the daughter of a mere national prison should never be so rejected.

"Okay." Zhang Meishou smiled slightly.

Mama Ke thinks she misheard.

"If you want to learn, I can teach you." Zhang Meishou pointed to the futon on the ground and said, "You should start from the kneeling position first." ”

"You dare to make fun of me? I'm old, I dare to kneel, do you dare to stand it? ”

"Isn't that learning the rules?" Besides, who is older than you?

Ah Li covered her mouth and snickered on the side.

"You ......" Mama Ke's face turned red and white, and she was so angry that she couldn't speak.

"Mama, prudence is also a very important part of the rules." Zhang Meishou looked at her with a smile.

Mama Ke never imagined that she would one day be so embarrassed in front of a little girl.

She said angrily: "Since the girl doesn't have this sincere learning, then I can't teach it!" Please also ask your house to be smart! ”

"Wait." Zhang Meishou stepped forward and stretched out his hand: "Please also ask Mama to return the silver money - mother gave you ten taels of silver, and you will return at least nine taels, and those one taels will be counted as hard work." ”

Mama Ke gritted her teeth, took out her purse, and smashed it into Zhang Meishou's hand.

Zhang Meishou casually threw it to Ah Li to count.

"Can I go!" Mama Ke said in a deep voice.

"After Mama goes out, she shouldn't talk nonsense, right?" Zhang Meishou suddenly asked.

Mama Ke's eyes flashed, and a sneer appeared on her mouth: "Naturally you won't talk nonsense, but telling the truth is inevitable." ”

Now that you know you're scared?

It's not stupid.

"Mama is not like a palace maid, and it is not difficult to find out. If I tell the truth, I wonder if anyone will be willing to invite you in the future. ”

Mama Ke listened to her left eyelid jumping!

The girl in front of her looked immature and delicate, but the words she said made her heart tremble!

Although she is not a palace maid, with her stern spirit and reputation over the years, no one has ever doubted the truth of her words.

If this is exposed, how will she stand in the future?

"If you don't talk nonsense, I won't talk nonsense......! Keep your mouth shut! "The guest mother forcibly suppressed the embarrassment of being soft on a child.

Zhang Meishou nodded.

But he asked, "I don't know where Grandma Ke's family lives?" ”

"Zhengjue Temple Hutong." Mama Ke felt weird in her heart, and blurted out unconsciously.

After answering, he asked vigilantly, "Why do you ask this?" ”

Zhang Meishou smiled lightly and said, "In case there is something to ask Mama for help in the future, it will be much easier to know where you live." She suddenly thought of one thing, maybe this guest mother who wandered around the market and went in and out of big families could really help in the future.

Mama Ke: "......"

Help?

Isn't it good to forget about each other?

She just hopes that she won't meet this little girl again in the future!

"And—" Zhang Meishou spoke again.

And also?

Mama Ke said she didn't want to hear it at all!
