85 A new unit, a new atmosphere, and a new upstart from the Fang family
After Ruqing came to the new unit, she was quite uncomfortable at first.
The old lady saw that there was only a rough servant and a little girl around Ruqing, so she gave agarwood to Ruqing from her side and waited for Ruqing's daily life.
After a few days, Hu's mother was also transferred, and Hu's mother was professionally guided by Ruqing's behavior as the daughter of the boudoir and other daughters' upbringing, and by the way, the two girls of Agarwood and Linglong.
This agarwood is about ten years old, it is a child, and it is old-fashioned, although it is young, but it waits for people, and there is a special set. Agarwood has been used by Hu's mother since childhood, and has its own set of ways to serve people, but it is exquisite, and when he came to Songhe Courtyard, he was quite unaccustomed. Because, Agarwood is too neat and too old, she follows Ruqing every day, and she can hardly find a job to do. But people can find a lot of work on their own.
"According to the time of day when the girl gets up, we have to make the hot water beforehand, and when the girl wakes up, we will go into the house and wait. You can't just let the girl wake up every time and fetch water in a hurry. ”
Agarwood is a very qualified little teacher, while demonstrating, while teaching Linglong to do things, Linglong said that he was taught while saying that he really wanted to learn more, and strive to surpass Agarwood in the future, to be a first-class girl around Ruqing.
"Before the girl goes to bed, we have to prepare the clothes that the girl will wear tomorrow. Before the girl woke up in the morning, she would bake it and warm it before putting it on for the girl. Put clothes on the girl, and then bring hot water to wash the girl's face and freshen up. Your water is a little cold today, so get it hot next time. ”
Linglong was still puzzled before, and Agarwood patiently explained, "Hot water is hotter, it is better to have some hot hands." After the girl is dressed, it will naturally be hot and cold. ”
Linglong nodded heavily, indicating that she was very humble and serious about studying.
Linglong is working hard for the goal of being able to sit on the first-class girl, and Ruqing is also working hard and struggling to be able to mix in the new unit.
The old lady's father was originally a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, which is strictly flaunted in all aspects of food, housing and behavior with words and deeds, Ruqing just started to learn very hard, she did not dare to be like Rumei, she could squander her willfulness and arrogance at will, and did not have the skills to learn as good as a good, not to laugh or show teeth, to eat without words, to sit in a correct posture in this regard, just said that there are twelve taboos when eating, although in modern times she has also been instilled with a lot of rules when eating, but put it in the old lady, it is far from enough.
The bad habits left by the previous meal couldn't be changed for a while, and no one in Li's place deliberately taught her to correct her, and she didn't pay special attention to it before, but now it is a little difficult to change it, so that her hands are swollen.
However, although the old lady was strict, Ruqing hated her. Because the old lady gave a big stick and a candy to eat, Ruqing was also beaten and trained, and then the old lady pulled her into her arms, and taught her a few words, and then asked Xia Lin's family to take the potion and smear it on her red and swollen little hands.
"You have to remember that although you are not from a high background and your father's official position is also low, our family is still a scholarly disciple, and we do not seek to be rich and rich, but the boudoir upbringing as a girl is absolutely sloppy. When the girl is in the boudoir, thousands of people love thousands of pets, but once married, it will be shorter, as the saying goes, the lion cage at home, the flea cage at the mother-in-law's house. Even if you do something wrong in your mother's house, it's a big deal to be punished, and you will be exposed if you are scolded, but if something goes wrong in your mother-in-law's family, then even your mother's family will be blamed. Got it? Sunny girl? ”
Ruqing nodded her head, looked at the old lady very sincerely, and said seriously: "Thank you, grandmother, what my grandmother taught me is that my granddaughter knows that she is wrong." ”
The old lady looked at her fixedly, knowing that she was really taught, so she smiled with satisfaction, hugged Ruqing in her arms, and said, "You are sensible, and you are as sensible as your eldest sister, and my grandmother is very pleased." I won't say much about the big truth, this girl's boudoir etiquette, learn it well, it will only be good for you. You have to learn by heart, you know? ”
Ruqing nodded fiercely, the old lady had a thought, how could she not know? All the girls in the boudoir have to learn all the etiquette knowledge, not to learn it and show it off, everything is to find a good in-law in the future.
Back in her room, Ruqing took the sticker and began to trace, Mrs. Fang said, a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, but as the daughter of an official eunuch, the Fang family is also a scholarly family, and the girls can't let outsiders laugh at them without learning or skills. Don't talk about excellence, at least you have to show your hands.

Time flies, in the blink of an eye, the cold is coming, Qizhou City has been shrouded in silver makeup, the three brothers of Zhili are still in Hu Fuzi's class without hindrance from the wind and snow, and Rushan is also studious and serious, getting up early and going to bed late every day, Fang Jinglan often praised Rushan and studious on the spot in front of his brothers and sisters, which provoked Rumei to hum disdainfully.
Ruqing also secretly complained to herself, this weather is cold, how comfortable it is to shrink in the quilt, but --- who said that the ancient boudoir daughter had a comfortable life? She was determined to hit him in the mouth.
The first month is coming, on this day, the sky is fine, the sun that has not been seen for a long time is revealed, reflecting the snowy swaying ground, extraordinarily comfortable, the rough servant of Fangfu began to clean the snow in the corridors of various corners of the house, such as the clear agarwood and exquisite master and servant The three of them stepped on the snow under their feet, and came to the front hall with the sound of brushing and brushing in the morning of the people.
Today is not only a good day, but also a good day. Mrs. Fang's daughter-in-law, Fang Jinglan's half-sister, Fang Jingxuan came back from her in-law's house to save her relatives. and brought a pair of sons of his own, and the nephews of his maternal relatives.
Compared with the brother of the five-grade official, Fang Jingxuan is married well, his father-in-law Zhao Wenwen is the servant of the second-grade household department in the capital, and the husband-in-law Yue Ziang is the seventh-grade household department in the matter. Although the officials are small, but the power is great, the work handed over by the emperor to the various yamen is written off by the six departments every five days, and if there is a detachment or ineffective work, the six departments can report to the emperor. The six branches can also participate in the promotion of officials, participate in the imperial council, try guilty officials, and most importantly, the six branches have the power to seal and return the emperor's edict, that is, if the emperor's will is considered inappropriate, it can be returned and not executed. The six branches and the thirteen supervising imperial histories are collectively referred to as "science and technology", which belong to the category of speech officials. It is also extremely helpful to know etiquette and follow the path of a speech official or civil official. Yes, Fang Jingxuan came back this time, but he was received a grand reception.
Mrs. Fang led Li Ruzhen and the others to greet her outside the gate, and after welcoming her aunt into the hall, she notified the juniors, and then came to the main hall to meet this aunt.
When Ruqing came to the front hall, the hall was already full of people, and the style of the official eunuch house in the capital was different.
In addition to the face-wrenching mother-in-law in front of the various masters of the Fang family, there were also many decently dressed but unfamiliar mother-in-law and maids, standing vividly outside the hall, seeing Ruqing, he glanced curiously, looked at Ruqing's clothes, slightly avoided it, and after Ruqing passed, he immediately straightened his shoulders and back.
Ruqing stepped into the main hall, and saw laughter in the room, and the old lady's hearty laughter broke through the roof. As you can imagine, the old lady was happy from the bottom of her heart.
Seeing Ruqing, the old lady beckoned to her and said with a smile: "Qing girl, you are finally here, come here, I have seen your aunt." Xuan'er, come to meet your niece, who is the most famous lazy girl in our family. ”
Ruqing blushed, facing a dark gold maroon vertical collar placket, with a lake blue inlaid three-finger wide light blue satin suede trim jacket, combing the hair in a bun, obliquely inserting a small phoenix hairpin, sideburns with a rose Tiandian, gilt inlaid lotus golden hairpin inserted in the back of the head, red orange gilt big phoenix branch inserted in the middle, white fox skin inlaid with jade beads to wipe the forehead, lined with people than flowers, bright and coquettish.
Ruqing announced Li to Fang Jing, and shouted in her mouth: "Please say hello to my aunt." ”
Although Fang Jingxuan rarely went back to her parents' house, she often corresponded with the old lady, knowing that the little girl in front of her was her brother's youngest concubine, and she didn't care too much at first, but seeing that Ruqing was born with red lips and white teeth, pink makeup and jade, and her red cheeks were as tender as fruit juice. ”
Ruqing stretched out ten small short fingers, stretched out with one hand, and bent the three fingers of the other hand, and said very seriously: "Seven years old, seven years old." Suddenly found that he was not comparing the number of seven, and immediately retracted a finger, and his delicate action made the old lady laugh, pointing at Ruqing and scolding: "You are useless, I usually teach you to count, but you can barely cope with it, why is it today, in front of your aunt, but you can't even tell the difference between seven and eight." ”
Ruqing bit her fingers and looked depressed, probably because she had been a child for a long time, and her IQ had also degraded.
Fang Jingxuan listened to her voice is also innocent and childish, inside and out, revealing a sense of aura and honesty, I like it very much, she has no daughter, she has two naughty sons, seeing her brother's concubine so happy, she can't help but like it, pinched Ruqing's pink and tender face, praised a few words one after another, stroked the bracelet on her wrist and handed it to Ruqing, "Come, this is my aunt's gift to my niece." It's not worth a few bucks, but don't dislike it. After thinking about it, she touched the jade lock from her body and put it on Ruqing's neck herself, and then looked at it carefully, "The little girl is really born with a water spirit, and with this jade lock, it will be worth the difference." ”
Ruqing showed her signature shy smile again, after thanking her aunt for the reward, she took the jade bracelet, paddled the weight, and followed the old lady for more than two months. This Fang Jingxuan actually gave it to himself, but it was precious.
In order to show her gratitude to her aunt, Ruqing accepted it very happily, and the other party was pleased to announce it again.
Suddenly, there was a sneer next to him, and Ruqing looked over, it was a half-brother with a raw face, who was glancing at himself with a funny and sarcastic gaze.
