205 Learn the rules
The fastest update of the latest chapter of the blessed wife is hard to find!
Back in Qingfeng Courtyard, Mother Qi hung her skirt on the hanger, spread it out neatly, and carefully dusted off the fine lines.
Xu Yaoyao instructed the maid to put the tidying up on the dresser, and then motioned for them to leave.
"Mama, let's learn in the study." She said.
Mama nodded and said, "Yes, eldest lady." ”
Xu Yaoyao glanced at Xuyue and You Shi, and after they went to the study, the two came to the side room, looked at the clothes and jewelry, and never let those Luo family maids who were not familiar with it touch it.
In the study, Luo Xuyan listened carefully to Mama's talk about the etiquette in the palace, as well as the likes and dislikes of the queen and other nobles.
“…… The queen has always been strict and demanding, and she looks very wide and close, but she must not forget her duties and rules. In addition, the eldest lady and the eldest lady also need to pay special attention to one, that is, Tang Guifei, she is famous with the queen, but at that time, the first emperor favored the Meng family more, so Meng Guifei could only be the prince Liangdi at first, and later the saint ascended the throne, and at first she was only canonized as Zhaoyi, and it took a year or two before she was promoted to a concubine. ”
Xu Yaoyao asked, "Mama, what do you need to pay attention to in the face of Tang Guifei?" ”
"Naturally, it's respectful." Mama said seriously: "You must not be a little neglectful and disrespectful to Tang Guifei because the eldest lady is about to become the daughter-in-law of the queen's mother." Otherwise, if you are caught, I am afraid that it will have an impact on the queen mother and Her Royal Highness the Sixth Prince. ”
Xu Yaoyao nodded slowly, "Mama, what else?" ”
"In addition, don't walk around in the palace at will, no matter what the ladies and ladies of other families say, don't follow them anywhere casually. If there is an inconvenient time, you must talk to the female official next to the queen, and be guided by the palace maid on the queen's side, and then go. Mama said meaningfully: "In the past, during the palace banquet, it was not that no one used some indiscriminate means, either to seduce the saint, or to harm people to be charged with spying on the palace, so we must be very cautious." ”
"......" Xu Yaoyao felt the invisible pressure fall on her shoulders and looked at her daughter beside her.
Luo Xuyan's face was calm, and she was slowly playing with a small unicorn-shaped paperweight in her hand.
Although they had already seen the saints, this was the first time they had entered the palace, and the first time they had really faced the majesty and pressure from the royal family, which was a situation that Xu Yaoyao had never thought of before. In her opinion, the person with the highest status in this life may be a person who has been assassinated in history, or a Beijing official who has returned to his hometown when he is old.
I once thought that Ah Yan would form a fate with the six princes, and together with the "expectations" of the Luo family, they were brought to the center of the Great Zhou.
Xu Yaoyao opened her mouth and asked, "Ah Yan, have you remembered everything?" ”
Luo Xuyan turned her head and said with a smile: "I have it all in mind." ”
"Alas......" Xu Yaoyao held Luo Xuyan's hand and said, "No matter what, you must keep in mind Mama's words." ”
"yes, I see." Luo Xuyan responded.
Mama said again: "Actually, the eldest lady and the eldest lady don't have to worry too much, the lady and the lady who accompany you that day will be the most powerful maid, and they will remind you." ”
Xu Yaoyao smiled, "That's the best." ”
Mama got up and said, "Lady, Miss, now the slave maid will teach you how to behave in the palace and what you need to pay attention to." ”
"I'm in trouble, Mama." Xu Yaoyao motioned for her daughter to get up and follow her grandmother to learn the rules.
Seriously learned in the evening, kneeling and kowtowing, bending down and saluting and other actions practiced for most of the day, Luo Xuyan felt a slight soreness on her body, but fortunately, if she didn't pay attention, it was not too obvious.
And the most obvious thing is that she is hungry.
After Xu Yaoyao instructed the maid to send her grandmother out, she asked the maid to arrange dinner.
Not long after, Luo Banghao came back from the shop, he started from stepping into the courtyard door, and walked into the study quickly, the maids in the courtyard felt like a wind swept in front of them, and they didn't see the face of the old man clearly, and the words "good old man" shouted out of his mouth were not finished, and he saw that Luo Banghao had closed the door of the study.
There were two maids in the courtyard, one was called Hongya and the other was called Luqiao, the two of them looked at each other, and crept outside the study, wanting to eavesdrop on what the eldest master's family wanted to say.
However, the people in the study seemed to have deliberately lowered their voices, and through a layer of window paper, they could not make up a complete sentence in their ears.
"Did you hear anything?" Hongya asked.
Green Buckwheat shook her head in distress, "I didn't hear anything, could it be that they are in the form of a goblin illusion, open their mouths, and don't make a sound, they can understand what they are talking about?" ”
"Tsk." Hongya frowned and leaned back against the window paper.
It's been a few days, and I haven't overheard any useful news, and the second lady has to blame her.
A few words of reproach are light, if the second lady is upset, maybe she will casually point to a man from the countryside in the Zhuangzi outside to marry.
Although he is a subordinate, who doesn't like to be in the palatial Luo Mansion? The maid can also eat and dress warmly, and the big girl can also wear a dress with good material, which is better than some ordinary ladies.
If she went to Zhuangzi, all that was waiting for her was to wear coarse cloth clothes and farm with her back to the loess.
Hongya couldn't imagine such a day, so she held her breath and paid attention to the movement in the study.
"Ah, what are the girls doing here?" Xuyue pretended to look at them with a look of surprise and walked over slowly.
Hongya and Green Buckwheat were both excited, looking up.
Green buckwheat was the first to react, and with a shake of his hand, a dead leaf fell to the ground.
She smiled dryly: "Sister Xuyue, we saw that there are fallen leaves here, so we came here to pick them up." ”
"How can there be fallen leaves? Isn't it carefully cleaned every day? "Sunny Moon said.
Lu Qiao said: "The eldest man came back just now, and he walked with the wind, so he brought it here." You see, I've picked up several pieces. ”
As she spoke, she opened her hands, and sure enough, there were a few yellow fallen leaves in her palms.
Hongya looked at it, and hurriedly nodded: "Yes, yes, as long as there is half a dead leaf on the ground, we have to pick it up quickly, otherwise if the housekeeper's mother sees it, we will have to scold and deduct our money." ”
Xuyue glanced at them, then smiled slightly, waved her hand, and said, "Just pick it up, let's get busy." ”
"Yes." Hongya and Green Buckwheat responded in unison and hurriedly slipped away.
Xuyue watched them leave, stood in front of the door of the study, and fiddled with the silk handkerchief in her hand.
When she walked to a place where there was no one, Hong Ya said distressedly: "Green buckwheat, you see that the eldest lord is mysterious, and he closed the door of the study again, and the moon is clearly guarding us against thieves, there must be something important for the eldest lord to say to the eldest lady and the eldest lady, but we haven't heard a word, and there is nothing to tell the second lady, how can this be good?" ”
Lu Qiao glanced back and said, "Could it be that the eldest lady made up a few words and said that she said bad things about her family?" ”
"yes, that's a great idea!" Hongya clapped her hands gently, her eyes flashing with joy, "Anyway, looking at her like that, it's not impossible to say bad things about other people." ”
"Phew." Green Buckwheat almost spat at her, and scolded softly: "You are dizzy." I just casually said, do you really want to do this? ”
"Do you want to make the second lady unhappy and marry you to a country man who is illiterate and rude?" Hongya said unhappily, "So soon, you forgot about Qingyun's fate?" ”
Lu Qiao sighed, "This matter is not in a hurry for a while, it seems that we still have to win the trust of the eldest lord and the eldest lady first." I think that if we persuade the second lady and flatter her with a few words, she will not be so unhappy and in a hurry to deal with us. ”
Hongya pursed her lips, a little unhappy.
Green buckwheat scratched her nose lightly, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, think about it, the two of us have two mouths, can't we coax the second lady to be happy alone?" ”
"......" Hongya glanced at her and replied helplessly: "That's the only way." ”
However, Green Buckwheat still saw the unwillingness in Hongya's eyes-
She was anxious to gain face in front of the second lady and get benefits.
Green Buckwheat smiled softly, it seemed that it would not be long before her chance came.
On the side of the study, after Luo Banghao asked about his wife and daughter's situation that day, he put the burden in his hand on the table, then untied it, and said to Luo Xuyan: "Ayan, on the day of the palace banquet, you should wear this dress." ”
The furoshiki was uncovered, revealing a moon-white skirt inside, and the lower end of the skirt was embroidered with a little silver white thread into a tangled lotus pattern, which matched the moon-white material and looked extraordinary.
"This is ......" Xu Yaoyao was a little puzzled.
Luo Banghao said: "This is the clothes prepared by the sixth prince for Ah Yan, saying that you must wear this dress that day." When the time comes, it will be said that it was given by the six princes, and if you don't wear it, you can't do it, so you can block the old lady's mouth. ”
This skirt looks good, Luo Xuyan reached out and touched the material, "...... It seems that there is indeed a problem with the clothes prepared by the second aunt. ”
However, no matter what the problem is, with the clothes sent by Cui Jingshi, it doesn't matter.
Xu Yaoyao said: "Hide this dress in the study first, and then take it out on the day of the palace banquet, so as not to have any accidents." ”
Luo Banghao nodded, "Ayan, your mother and I have to pay attention to the things in the shop these days, so you must be careful at home." ”
"I see." Luo Xuyan picked up the corner of the furoshiki and covered it on her skirt.
Xu Yaoyao took over, wrapped the clothes again in the furoshi, and then carefully put the envelope behind a pile of books after looking around in the study.
After putting it away, she took a few steps back, looked and looked, and said, "These days, it's best not to let the thank you maid slip into the study." Looking at their ghosts, I'm really worried that something will happen. She rubbed her forehead, "It's really uncomfortable to be watched all the time, but we only brought a few people from You's family and Xuyue, and even if there is another wave of people, we can't trust it." ”
Luo Banghao grabbed his wife's shoulder, patted him gently, and said, "It's still a short time, and this matter has to be considered in the long run." ”
"I see." Xu Yaoyao looked up at her husband and smiled faintly.
Luo Xuyan looked at her father, since they decided to come to the capital, the smiles on their faces seemed to be gradually decreasing, and there were always countless troubles.
She lived a new life, hoping that her father and mother would be able to live a peaceful and smooth life after avoiding the scourge of killing, but God did not fulfill people's wishes.
She will not be discouraged by this, and will definitely find another way to make her father and mother happy again!
The next day, Xu Yaoyao carefully told her daughter a few more words before going out, and then left Luofu with Luo Banghao and went to the shop with worry.
I always stay at home and don't care about the shop, but when I go to the shop, I am worried that my daughter will be bullied by others in Luofu alone.
Although she knows that her Ayan will not be easily bullied, as a mother, she will always have too many worries.
Luo Xuyan didn't understand anything, she sighed helplessly, sat by the window of the study, and watched the maids diligently tidy up in the yard.
Zhiyue brought a plate of melon seeds and walnut cakes, put them on the small table beside Luo Xuyan, and said with a smile: "Miss, what are you looking at?" She followed Luo Xuyan's gaze, only to see the two maids who were seriously squatting on the grass, picking up leaves, "Ah, Hongya and Green Buckwheat are really diligent today, they all instructed the little maid to pick them up before." ”
Xu Yue was sitting outside the window, with a small basket on her lap, in which she put cloth and various needles and threads, she heard the words of Zhi Yue, and said with a smile: "I think they are the most careful in picking up leaves, so I arranged for them to pick them up." ”
Zhiyue grinned and said, "Sister Xuyue is amazing! As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up.
Xu Yue glared at her with a smile.
Luo Xuyan glanced at the courtyard again, and said slowly: "These two people ......"
"What's wrong?" Xuyue asked nervously, looking back.
"I've been secretly watching over here." Luo Xuyan lowered her eyes and said.
"Really?" Xuyue swept over with a sharp eye, but what she saw was that Hongya and Green Buckwheat were both buried in their heads, doing the chores done by the most inferior little maids without complaint, and they looked very well-behaved.
She deliberately paid attention for a moment, but did not see the two of them look up.
"Forget it, leave them alone." Luo Xuyan leaned back on the pillow, half lying down comfortably, and found out the book that she had scavenged in the capital, helping her father and mother deal with the things of the shop these days, she didn't have time to take a look at it, it's good today......
"Don't you really care?" Xuyue asked, and looked at the two maids again, it is true that she did not see any fame, probably she did not have the keen observation of the young lady.
Luo Xuyan smiled: "No matter what happens, they can't control it, so it's better to let them watch." I can only watch, but I can't do anything...... Isn't it uncomfortable? ”
