Chapter 477: Rules and Etiquette for the Upper Ranks
"Huh? Is that so? What's wrong with the old lady lately? Think about it, and tell me it without saying anything. Xu lowered his voice and squinted his eyes like a cunning fox.
Hongli didn't dare to delay, and thought about it carefully, "The old lady is riding the eldest girl's carriage back and forth, it seems that it is because the eldest girl's carriage is not bumpy, and in addition, when the old lady slept last night, she had nightmares and cried!" said that when I thought of the deceased wife, I felt sad in my heart.
And ยทยทยทยทยทยท And when the slave and maid were keeping vigil, they saw a footprint on the window, but in the old lady's room, except for the eldest girl, they didn't ask if they saw anyone entering, and I kept watch outside, and I didn't see anyone entering, nor did I see anyone coming out, and I didn't know what the footprint was? โ
Xu Shi chuckled in his heart, secretly felt bad, and looked at Hongli, "Is there anything else?" โ
Hongli shook her head, "Mrs. Hui, no." The slave and maid found out about this, and said it all. โ
Xu nodded, and then said loudly: "Those troubled Hongli girls made it clear to the old lady that I was really unwell and couldn't handle these things, and I didn't mean to be lazy." โ
Hongli bowed down and said, "The slave must convey Madame's apology." โ
After speaking, he took the reward money given by the Xu family and went out happily.
After Hongli left, Xu's face immediately darkened.
According to the effect of the medicine, the old lady of Suiyang Hou slept very deeply at night, and even if it was thundering outside, the old lady could not wake up.
But because of excessive worry, I had nightmares in the middle of the night and cried?
Xu didn't believe this kind of statement.
Where are the variables?
Suddenly, Xu's eyes widened, and he thought of Liu Yiyi.
After this Liu Yiyi came to the house, she not only took care of the old lady with her, but also boiled medicine for the old lady.
Say it's a tonic, but who knows?
Thinking of this, Xu hurriedly said to Mei Xiang beside him: "Send someone to investigate, the eldest girl asked someone to catch medicine for the old lady, what kind of medicine did she buy?" Be careful not to be discovered. โ
Mei Xiang hurriedly responded, "Yes, madam!" โ
Every time Madame shows such an expression, it means that something is wrong.
Mei Xiang didn't dare to be careless, nor did she dare to be lazy, so she immediately asked people to investigate.
Hongli returned to Songhe Garden, heard the laughter of the old lady inside, and was slightly stunned, when did the old lady's spirit become so good?
"Old lady, Mrs. said that she was unwell and could not hold the banquet for the time being, so she wanted to postpone it for a while, and asked the old lady to understand." Hongli truthfully told the old lady of Suiyang Hou.
The smile on the face of the old lady of Suiyang Hou stopped abruptly, "Hehe, since you are unwell, you should really rest." The eldest girl of our Suiyang Hou Mansion is also noble, and she is the prince of Qingyang County who was personally crowned by His Majesty.
If it is so decent, our Suiyang Hou Mansion has not expressed anything, which is really inappropriate. You go and tell Xu again, if she can't manage it, she can recuperate with peace of mind, and I will ask a doctor for her to recuperate!
As for the banquet, I will handle it myself, so I don't have to work hard for her! By the way, bring me all the pairs I gave out! โ
Hongli heard the angry voice of the old lady of Suiyang Hou, and she was even more puzzled, but she was the maid next to the old lady, of course she couldn't speak for the Xu family, so she said respectfully: "Yes, old lady, the slave will go over!" โ
After Hongli left, Liu Yiyi asked softly: "Grandmother, in fact, I know that you and my eldest brother can love me, as for the people in the outside world, I don't care, there is no need to be so troublesome!" โ
Liu Yiyi didn't want her grandmother to be too tired to handle these things.
Old Madam Suiyang Hou smiled and waved her hand, "I know you're worried that I'm too tired doing these things, so you want me to have a good rest!"
But Yiyi, you are the eldest girl of the Suiyang Marquis Mansion, and you are the Qingyang County Monarch of His Majesty. On the first day, you took me to see your master and treat me.
Yesterday we went to visit your mother again to pay our respects to your mother. You've done everything you can do for your elders, and now it's time for you to enjoy the honor that comes with being a status! โ
Liu Yiyi was slightly stunned when she heard this, deep in her heart, she was still the peasant girl in Liujia Village, Meiling County.
Be happy all day long, cook something delicious to share with your family, communicate with your brother and master, and live a relaxed and happy life.
But now that she has come to Liujia Village, Meiling County, the capital, everything is gone, and the next thing is the noble life of Qingyang County Jun, the eldest girl of Suiyang Houfu, in the capital, and she can't be as relaxed as before.
This banquet was an important step for her to enter the upper social circle of the capital.
If it weren't for the old lady of Suiyang, the Xu family would never have organized this banquet for Liu Yiyi.
The Xu family pretended to be sick and wanted to postpone this banquet, and it was estimated that they wanted to wait for the old lady of Suiyang Hou to be gone, and everything would be saved.
Hearing her grandmother's words, Liu Yiyi nodded, "Thank you, grandmother, I am not familiar with the capital when I first came to the capital." But it sounds complicated to me.
If my grandmother is too tired, you can leave some small things that I can do to me! It just so happens that I can also learn, and when I grow up, I will be able to deal with these things independently! โ
When the old lady of Suiyang heard this, she thought of the Seventh Prince, who cared about her granddaughter, and immediately felt that she should teach Liu Yiyi more.
Not only do you have to learn the etiquette and rules of the upper class, but you also have to learn how to manage the back house and how to interact with the upper class nobles.
Old Madam Suiyang Hou looked at Liu Yiyi kindly, "I'm very happy that you can have such an idea!" If you want to be comfortable in this circle, you must first learn the rules and common sense of this circle, so that you can use these rules and common sense.
In the future, I will take you to organize this banquet every morning, and what you need to prepare. As for the afternoon, you have to follow the rules of parenting grandma that I arranged for you! โ
Liu Yiyi thought deeply when she heard this, and she didn't feel that the old lady of Suiyang Hou was embarrassing her, but helping her.
If you want to integrate into this circle, you must first become a person in this circle and have the same behavior as them, otherwise they will be considered different.
"Thank you, grandmother!" Liu Yiyi said with a smile, "I must live up to my grandmother's hard work and study hard!" Absolutely do not disgrace your grandmother, do not embarrass your mother! โ
The old lady of Suiyang Hou smiled and was very happy.
Looking at Liu Yiyi, I feel that Liu Yiyi is like her unborn daughter.
If her daughter was born at that time and grew up to such a big age, she must have been as smart and sensible as Liu Yiyi.
"Good! You have to remember that listening to people's advice, eating well, especially those who treat you sincerely, their persuasion to you is first and foremost sincere, and it is good for you. Whether you will accept it or not, but listen with an open mind and discern carefully! The old lady of Suiyang Hou took the opportunity to teach Liu Yiyi.
