Seeing that Xia Yanqing seemed to be thinking about something, Mama Tang didn't answer, so she couldn't help but have a serious face, and asked in a deep voice: "Second grandmother, do you think what the slave said is wrong?" ”

Xia Yanqing came back to his senses at this time, and felt funny in his heart. These nurturing grandmothers are really an alternative species, and they are always called slaves, but this tone and expression are more like the ancestors invited by the family.

complained in his heart, but his face did not show it, but replied seriously: "No, I think what Mama said is very true, of course, the icing on the cake is better than harmless." I will keep my grandmother's teachings in mind and be diligent in my studies. ”

"......" Rao is Mama Tang has read countless people, and she was also stunned by Xia Yanqing's strange way of understanding.

As far as she was stunned, Xia Yanqing had already stood up, "That's the case, I'll go to the back yard first and continue my schoolwork." If Mama doesn't feel tired, in the afternoon, we can start teaching rules and etiquette. ”

She bowed slightly at Mama Tang, and against her sharp gaze, Shi Shiran went out.

Xinshu and Xinxiu glanced at Mama Li and hurriedly followed.

Seeing Xia Yanqing's master and servant go out, Mama Tang was full of depression that she couldn't spit out. She turned her gaze to Mama Li.

Mama Li smiled apologetically: "Mama Tang just came here today, and she is not familiar with the situation in our yard, so I will take Mama to take a look." Drop by to Mama's room and see if there's anything missing. ”

Mama Li's face was full of apologies, but she had some regrets in her heart. Mama Tang's words just now did not have the slightest advantage in front of the second grandmother.

It seems that she thinks simply, she wants to teach the second grandmother to be a virtuous and humble backhouse woman, even if it is a grandmother in the palace, I am afraid that it will take a lot of trouble.

In this way, the things that the second grandmother had to prepare before could not be delayed, and she had to hurry up and urge the big and strong couple who came to marry to bring in the soil, sand, stove and other things on the list as soon as possible.

…………

After lunch and a break, Xia Yanqing's rules and etiquette started. Classes are held in a large room on the west side of the main room.

Xia Yanqing's ability to accept etiquette is as strong as the comprehension of reading, and there are not many twists and turns that Mama Li is worried about.

Although for the delicate lady of the boudoir, learning the rules is an extremely difficult thing.

But Xia Yanqing is a crossing woman, she has received many military/training along the way since she was in junior high school, and she has the spiritual accumulation of hard work. As long as Mama Tang doesn't intend to provoke, she can still receive etiquette training.

No matter what era it is, good and elegant manners are a plus for anyone.

As a result, Mama Tang's depression had not faded, and in the process of teaching Xia's rules, her depression became even stronger.

Xia, who looks emaciated, was able to hold up all her training content.

After a nap, an hour and a half is not a long time. Repeatedly standing, walking, bending knees, kneeling, and sitting postures in various situations, Xia can meticulously execute.

Although many times, holding a posture for too long, watching Xia Shi crumble, he didn't hear half of the complaint, let alone the slightest resistance.

Xia Yanqing's attitude and tenacity are enough to make any mama known for her strictness feel useless. What's more, Mama Tang was already very unhappy with her previous words and deeds.

However, she had just come to the Wang family, and before she figured out the situation, she could only slowly figure out Xia Yanqing's depth and temperament.

Just like Xia Yanqing herself said, this grandmother's discipline and teaching to her are simply pervasive. Except for the time she spent in Mr. Bai's yard, the rest of the time was basically spent under the scrutiny of Mama Tang.

After a few days of such a peaceful day, Xia Yanqing made considerable progress in walking rules. Although he can't maintain a dignified and elegant figure and demeanor all the time, he can also be dignified immediately when he sees Mama Tang's eyes.

Mama Tang is different from Mr. Bai, she had been told before she came to the Wang family, and there was another tacit understanding between the second master of the Wang family and the second grandmother, she just taught the second grandmother the rules and ensured that the second grandmother did not make mistakes in etiquette.

As for the side things, she doesn't have to worry about it.

When she first heard this, she was full of surprise. But after getting along and observing in the past few days, she has a new understanding of Xia Yanqing and her situation in the Wang family.

All kinds of signs prove that the Wang family and the second master of the Wang family do not seem to treat the Xia family as a family.

In Mama Tang's view, the existence of the Xia family, as well as the purpose of the Wang family to ask for advice and raise Mama, is to make the Xia family with a false name not let the Wang family lose its dignity.

With this cognition, Mama Tang's depressed mood seems to have some possibility to be relieved.

…………

As early as when he had the idea of making glass, and he couldn't inquire about the glass workshop, Xia Yanqing planned to try it himself.

Before talking to Mr. Bai, she had asked her roommate, Zhang Dazhuang, and his wife to go to the craftsman's shop to inquire about the clay and refractory materials used in pottery making and brick burning, as well as small crucibles that melt copper and iron, as well as quartz sand or quartz stone.

As Mr. Bai moved in, he took the opportunity of building a water stove for Mr. Bai, and these things were brought in little by little.

Xia Yanqing also informed the Yuan family, and with Yuan's displeased look, he bought some clay and clay embryos to cover up.

In the evening, Xia Yanqing discussed the details of the melting glass with Mr. Bai, and protected against various situations that may occur after the stove is turned on. And these insiders need a unified narrative.

She also transferred her strong daughter Qiao'er to Mr. Bai's courtyard to serve the daily chores in the courtyard.

After preparing for more than ten days, all the utensils and materials were ready, Xia Yanqing made the newly bought clay embryo and clay into a crude small clay pot and a few beckoning cats and pottery hollow balls.

There are enamel pigments bought from the craftsman's workshop, and then Mr. Bai's brushes, plus Xia Yanqing's creativity, although the clay pottery objects have not yet seen the effect, but Xia Yanqing took two girls, and Mr. Bai, Qiao'er and other five people, doing it with great interest.

waited until the mouth seal of the simplified stove version of the small kiln was on, Xia Yanqing left Xinshu to help Qiao'er watch the fire, and then hurriedly returned to Qiuyue Garden.

In the Autumn Moon Garden, Mama Tang stood under the eaves corridor with a calm face, and with the help of the lanterns hanging under the corridor, she looked at Xia Yanqing and Xinxiu from head to foot with a pair of sharp eyes.

Xia Yanqing has already felt that Mama Tang's aura has changed in the past few days, and she is indeed late when she comes back this time, Shen Zheng left Qiuyue Garden, and now it is almost time.

"Second grandmother, do you know, what time is it?" Mama Tang glanced at the dirt that couldn't be slapped off the master and servant, and asked suspiciously.

She said, Xia went to learn poetry, why did the master and servant all change into half-worn simple dresses, and they really went to play with mud!

Xia Yanqing replied simply: "I didn't care about it, it's probably time." It's hard work, it's not early, so let's rest early. While nodding at Mama Tang, his footsteps did not stop, and he slowly passed her and went into the upper room.
