Master Liu was still the same. Her facial features were not that outstanding, and she did not have the beauty to topple cities. However, she had an outstanding bearing, charming but not ordinary, demonic but not gorgeous. Her noble aura was not inferior to that of a young lady from an aristocratic family. It was not an exaggeration to describe her as 'colorful and resplendent, like a fairy consort.' In her previous life, Wanqiu liked this Teacher Liu the most. She felt that a woman should have such a temperament.
Such a woman should have been the wife of a rich family, but she was chosen to be a beautiful lady in the palace because of her outstanding looks. She was seen by a concubine as a palace maid and was only released from the palace to marry when she was twenty-five years old. Unfortunately, she was unlucky and became a widow.
She smiled and looked at the four members of the Shen family. She walked lightly and said with a gentle gaze,"Ladies, please move. We're about to start class.”Her voice was soft with a hint of laziness, and it was indescribably charming. Teacher Liu turned around slightly and gently parted his belt, looking as gentle as water. It was impossible to look away.
The etiquette class room was located next to the study. The furnishings in this room were very different from the study room just now.
As soon as he entered the room, a fragrant scent wafted towards him. The incense burned repeatedly, like silk threads, leaking out from the hollowed out smoked ball shell. It vaguely lit up the green skull decorated with golden snake ornaments, spitting out a faint fragrance into the air. When he entered the room, he felt a warm fragrance caressing his face. There was a crimson silk curtain hanging on the door curtain. Between the hanging curtains, there was only one long table and Maitreya couch, but there were several chairs. The chairs were covered with ancient brocade. Bookshelves and bronze Yi tripods were placed in the room. There were also a few famous calligraphy and paintings on the walls. The decoration was simple but exquisite. It was not inferior to the boudoirs of the young ladies.
Master Liu sat down elegantly and bowed to everyone.
Lu Wanling and Lu Wanjing imitated Teacher Liu and sat down in the same elegant posture. They crossed their legs slightly and placed their hands on their legs naturally. Her body was straight and her chin was slightly raised in a graceful posture.
Wanqiu naturally did not need to learn. In her previous life, she was already a married woman. The nobility and elegance of a noble lady had already seeped out from her bones. She was not inferior to Master Liu in the slightest.
Lu Wanning looked here and there. Although she tried her best to sit down slowly and elegantly like the Headmaster of Academy and the other sisters, her body was stiff and her posture was rough. She only imitated the posture and lost her agility and carelessness. She inevitably fell behind.
Teacher Liu's eyes swept across the four young ladies and couldn't help but stop on Wanqiu. This young miss did not look like an eleven-year-old child at all. The image of a noble daughter was displayed at this moment, but there was a sharp aura on her body, as if she was sitting opposite a noble lady. "It's been a few months since we last met, and you've improved a lot."”
Wanqiu only smiled back.
Everyone turned to look at Wanqiu. Lu Wanling saw that Wanqiu's sitting posture was far better than hers. A flash of jealousy passed and she quickly turned back to straighten her back.
Lu Wanjing was full of doubts, while Fourth Miss Lu Wanning still couldn't change her usual personality. She muttered softly,""You really know how to put on an act."
Wanqiu acted as if she didn't hear anything and continued to smile gracefully.
Was he putting on an act? Noble, elegant, and calm temperament might not be innate, but it was especially important to nurture them. He had experienced so many more years of life than all of them. If he could not even compare to all of them in this aspect, wouldn't he have lived in vain?
Master Liu spoke slowly, his words soft and clear, and there was a subtle rhythm between his words. It was like spring water in the mountains, making people happy.
"As a woman, the way she sits must not be underestimated," she said with a smile. It might not be so obvious when you're a young lady, but when you grow up and even leave the boudoir, you'll often go to all kinds of social occasions of nobles. Most of the time, you'll sit down when socializing. When talking to other noble ladies, or when you were the mistress of your husband's house, you would all sit down. It was very likely that you would sit for most of the day. There were various sitting postures corresponding to various occasions. Elegant, lazy, fierce, noble…In short, according to the individual's temperament and personality, the sitting posture would also be different. Just now, the few of you were sitting in a deliberate manner. You are noble ladies. Remember that you are noble and start over in the most comfortable position. Of course, the young lady did very well. There is no need to practice. You can practice meditation.”
Hearing Teacher Liu's words, everyone stood up and sat down again.
The Headmaster's voice sounded again." You must not be hasty when you sit down. Even if something big happens, you must be calm and composed. Remember, you are the young ladies.”
This time, their postures slowed down a lot. Teacher Liu was still not satisfied."It's still a little rushed to sit down, especially Fourth Miss. Sitting posture was a person's appearance, which was displayed to outsiders. Before you adjust yourself, don't sit down easily, or it would be easy to be rude in front of others.”
After going back and forth several times, the Headmaster was finally satisfied. Perhaps it was because the Headmaster's voice made people unable to feel annoyed, or perhaps it was because it was related to a woman's bearing, everyone was positive and serious. Even the picky and talkative Lu Wanning did not complain at all.
Next, he had to learn to sit for a long time.
This was also a kind of knowledge. Others could figure out your character from your sitting posture. Of course, you can also learn from others. It depends on whose foundation is higher.
Hearing the Headmaster's words, everyone looked at each other.
Teacher Liu couldn't help but smile." I'll teach you this skill later. Now, learn how to sit properly." There is still an hour before the school ends. Everyone, sit still.”
Everyone was delighted. Wasn't it easy to sit for half an hour?
However, as time passed, everyone began to feel uncomfortable and wanted to get up and walk.
Sitting was much more comfortable than standing. Usually, he would sit, but he had never realized that it was so difficult to maintain a sitting position without moving. He even asked for a perfect sitting posture. It was really physical work.
Even Wan Qiu was secretly complaining in her heart. Although she often sat for half a day in her previous life, her current body was still an eleven-year-old child. She could not help but feel sore.
He raised his head and looked at Teacher Liu. She was sitting there leisurely. Her hair did not move at all, but her posture was relaxed and elegant, as if she was doing something very pleasant and comfortable.
" Eldest Miss, your sitting posture is very good, but it's a little gentler. Third Miss is the same. You can put your hands up a little. Otherwise, if you sit for a long time, your whole body will ache," Teacher Liu gently pointed.
Wanqiu and Wanjing quickly followed his instructions.
Walking to Lu Wanling's side, Teacher Liu said gently,"" Second Miss, you need to relax your legs. You don't have to clamp them so tightly." Lu Wanling blushed slightly and relaxed her legs.
" Fourth Miss, you are too relaxed. Keep your legs together. If your legs are too open, it will make people feel frivolous. Also, you have to straighten your back, raise your head, and chest out. A young lady from a big family should have the bearing of a young lady from a big family. You should not be a young lady from a small family, let alone a young lady from a merchant family. Also, your smile should be appropriate. Don't have a cold expression." Teacher Liu had a kind face and did not speak seriously. However, he always hit the nail on the head, making people admire him.
Lu Wanning straightened her back and immediately sat up straight. She smiled slightly. Teacher Liu patiently corrected her and even gave her a demonstration. Lu Wanning's face was cramping from smiling. She was not a gentle person by nature. Even when she was trying to please Lu Wanling, she would sometimes get angry with her. Teacher Liu finally sighed helplessly." That's all for today. Fourth Miss, please practice more in the future."
