Chapter 106: Teaching the Rules
The two grandmothers given by the queen, one surnamed Zhang and the other surnamed Li, looked dignified and serious, cold and ruthless, and said mercilessly after meeting and saluting, "Miss Gu will marry into the royal family soon, her words and deeds represent the royal face, and the etiquette and behavior must be appropriate and standardized, stable and generous." The queen mother specially gave the two slaves and maids to teach the rules, and no one can ignore them. I also asked Miss Gu to learn the rules with the slaves and maids at three o'clock every day. ”
If you ask what is the best way to learn people in the palace but can't find mistakes, learning the rules is the first choice, the grandmother in the palace has the means of yin to make people fall sick and not fall into the handle, and a good person has to take off a layer of skin after learning the rules.
Gu Qingyi's rules are from elementary school to adulthood, and he naturally knows the hardships of learning the rules, and if he lets the queen's people teach the rules, I'm afraid it will be even more bitter. She knows her cousin's body, and she is afraid that she will not be able to hold up even simple rules, let alone a double body now, and she is afraid that the fetus will not be able to be protected at that time.
Mrs. Zhou was also clear about this, and she was so anxious that she immediately opened her mouth to maintain, "Two grandmothers, our Yi'er rules have always been proper, and there is no lady in the city who does not boast. ”
Mama Zhang, one of the two grandmothers, had a straight face, "Mrs. Hou, please forgive me, the queen's will is not allowed to play with children's play." ”
Mrs. Zhou's face changed, and she hurriedly glanced at Mama Rong, Mama Rong immediately understood, and handed over the silver ticket that had been prepared a long time ago, but the two Mama accepted the silver, but their attitude did not change at all, "The rules must be learned after all, otherwise Miss Gu will miss the stuffing when she enters the palace in the future, and everyone will not be able to do well." ”
Gu Qingyi watched coldly, and roughly figured out their details, these two people were afraid that they had been specially instructed by the queen, otherwise they would not be so tough after receiving the money.
She held her stepmother's hand and comforted, "Don't worry, Auntie, since the grandmothers came from the palace to teach me the rules, they must be the most reasonable. ”
Listening to her words, the expressions on the faces of the two grandmothers remained unchanged, but a hint of mockery flashed quickly in their eyes, thinking that she could say anything to change their attention, even so, they still said very respectfully, "Miss Gu, please speak." ”
Gu Qingyi is good at capturing emotions, and naturally sees the ridicule in the eyes of the two, but she doesn't care, her expression is calm and calm, her attitude is neither humble nor arrogant, she doesn't mean to ask for help at all, it sounds like an order, "Mammies want to teach me the rules, it's nothing more than the etiquette of walking in the palace, yes or no?" ”
Although she didn't know what kind of medicine she was selling in her gourd, Mama Zhang still replied, "That's right." Miss Gu will become the princess of Qin in the future, so she will inevitably have to walk in the palace, the rules in the palace are big, and there are rules everywhere for the women to dress, walk, salute, eat and speak, etc., Miss Gu is afraid that she will not be able to finish learning for half a month, but the queen mother instructed, when you get married, the slaves and maids will follow you to the Qin Palace. ”
These two people actually want to follow her to the Qin Palace! The queen is blatantly inserting eyeliner!
There was anger between Mrs. Zhou and Mama Rong's eyebrows, Gu Qingyi was even more angry in her heart, thinking that in the future, the two grandmothers who would be in charge of the Qin Wangfu and the queen would make a stumbling block, she couldn't help but be angry, and sneered, "Then I take the liberty of asking, how to learn the rules well, if there is no standard, wouldn't I have to learn from the grandmothers for a lifetime?" I'm not afraid of learning the rules, but it's not good if you delay the future of the grandmothers, after all, you are all proud people in front of the queen's mother. ”
It was probably the last sentence that touched the minds of the two grandmothers, a strange look flashed in their eyes, it seemed that they were not willing to spend their lives with her, too, a princess of Qin with an unknown future, and the lord of the middle palace with a stable position, fools know which one to choose.
The most obvious change is that their attitude is slightly softer, "Miss Gu, although rest assured, the slave maid just wants to do her best, and she is by no means embarrassed." Before teaching the rules, the slaves and maids will demonstrate it first, as long as Miss Gu meets the standard, it will be completed. ”
They have been in the palace for most of their lives, and the best thing they learn is the rules, and it is not easy to meet their standards. Mama Zhang and Mama Li both showed a reserved and smug smile, and when the time came, they would be taught strictly according to their standards, so that they would not delay their return to the palace, and they could achieve the queen's purpose, and there was nothing better than this.
Gu Qingyi naturally saw their plans, and couldn't help sneering in her heart, she had learned the rules since she could walk, her words and deeds and etiquette norms were all in accordance with the instructions of the palace, and she asked herself that she was no worse than these palace maids, if they were trying to make things difficult, it would be a big mistake.
Presumably they had already figured out their cousin's situation in the mansion, otherwise they wouldn't be so confident. But they are better negligent, and fall into her calculations.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile, "My Gu Mansion is a house of etiquette, although I have not been taught by the grandmothers in the palace, the rules on weekdays cannot be neglected." It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, it just so happens that my aunt is also there, the grandmothers might as well do the rules in the palace again, I follow the learning, although the grandmothers taste, if there is any deficiency in the point out, and then teach the deficiencies in the future, what do the grandmothers think? ”
The corners of Mama Zhang and Mama Li's lips couldn't help but show a mocking smile, they never expected that Gu Qingyi would provoke them on the spot, they simply didn't know how thick the sky was. But that's fine, originally they were looking for an excuse to get off the horse, but now she put her face up and let them beat them, so why not.
Let her see how many eyes Lord Ma has today!
Mama Zhang responded without hesitation, "Since Miss Gu has a heart, we won't stop it." In this way, let the slave and maid demonstrate, Miss Gu will follow and learn, and let Mrs. Hou and Mama Li judge, what do Mrs. and Miss think? ”
Although Mrs. Zhou was worried, she also knew that Gu Qingyi's temperament had never been untargeted, and it must be certain that she could make this request, so she responded without hesitation, and asked the maids to prepare the props, and watched the performance of Mama Zhang and Gu Qingyi with the people who were watching the excitement in the courtyard.
The first is walking in the palace. It is not allowed to walk fast in the palace, not to look around, and not to show the lotus feet when walking, and the hairpin ring is not moved - the palace maid is not allowed to wear the hairpin ring, and the hairpin ring on the sideburns can only be held with simple beads, and the hairpin ring on Mama Zhang's sideburns is still taken from Mrs. Zhou's makeup and brought on the spot. Mama Zhang's performance can be regarded as perfect, her eyes are slightly drooping, humble and responsible, but probably because she is not used to it, Zhu Hai with sideburns shook twice.
Originally, Mama Zhang and Mama Li thought that they were flawed, and Gu Qingyi might not even be able to do it without leaking lotus feet, but after she walked around, the two of them changed their faces together.
Gu Qingyi has completed each of the four standards of walking in the palace accurately and perfectly, compared to Mama Zhang's humble duty, her demeanor is calm and calm, and her eyebrows are slightly drooping with a natural noble grace and generosity, which makes people see at a glance which is the slave and which is the master. Even the hairpin ring on her sideburns, Gu Qingyi wore twice as much as Mama Zhang, but she was still very obedient and hung down obediently, and there was no trace of shaking at all.
The subordinates immediately showed a proud smile, and even applauded, Mrs. Zhou and Mama Rong did not stop it, because they were also proud, looking at the rules of their girls, and comparing the grandmothers in the palace to the dust.
Gu Qingyi's gaze fell on the faces of Zhang and Mama Li, and said with a smile, "Two Mammas, do you think the etiquette of walking in my palace is still standard?" Do I need to learn again? ”
Mama Zhang's face was beaten, and her face was dull at this time, Mama Li also felt that her face was lost, and she no longer had the self-satisfaction and ridicule of Fang Cai, so she said insincerely with a stiff face, "Miss Gu's walking etiquette is very standard, and the slave sighs to herself." ”
They are secretly doing psychological construction, don't panic, and then there are four items: salute, food, speech and dress, and they can always jump out of the wrong place.
However, the next scene made them stunned, exhausted by the blow, and almost lost their temper on the spot.
One of the salutes, whether it is a sacrificial ceremony, or a ceremony to bow to the emperor and the concubine, is exactly the same; Not to mention eating, without showing his teeth or eating silently, Gu Qingyi can do it elegantly and calmly; She is not in a hurry, crisp and not sharp, does not speak falsely, and avoids it, she is detailed one by one; As for the final wear, she can count the corresponding grades of fateful clothes, hairpin ring styles and number of pieces corresponding to different women, as well as the different joys and funerals in the palace, and the changes in dressing, and so on, all of which are unclear......
Where is this like an unfavored young lady, she is clearly a noble girl who has been carefully raised!
Not only Mama Zhang and Mama Li were shocked, but even Mrs. Zhou was surprised, she thought that Gu Qingyi was sure, but she didn't expect that she was proficient, this set of etiquette, even she herself couldn't say that she did it perfectly, shocking everyone.
The subordinates don't know the doorway, they will only follow the coaxing, applauding vigorously, and seeing the next Gu Qingyi's gaze is no longer the alienation and politeness before, but slowly proud and worshipful, who can hit the grandmother around the queen speechless, it is estimated that there is no one else except the girl in their family.
Gu Qingyi had already expected the result, and was not surprised by this, and looked at Zhang and Li with a chuckle, "Two grandmothers, what do you think of my rules?" But do you want to continue teaching? ”
She has been paving the ground again and again, and what she is waiting for is now. Since they want to learn the rules to learn from others, she let them have no reason to learn.
This trick is justified, and it is not only used by queens.
