Back to the present.
At the end of the reading class, Teacher Sun gave everyone some tasks. What was left for Wan Qiu was to copy 20 calligraphy strokes.
Wan Qiu responded calmly on the surface, but she started to panic in her heart.
She only knew how to write names! He couldn't write anything else. The after-school task assigned by the Headmaster was really difficult for her.
Unfortunately, she didn't even have the time to sigh or frown, because Teacher Liu would be here soon. She didn't dare to think about anything else.
The course that Teacher Liu was taking seemed unimportant, but it was actually the most important.
If a noble did not know etiquette and made a fool of himself in public, it would be extremely embarrassing.
At the very least, he would be laughed at for a while and become a laughingstock in others 'mouths. In the worst case, it would affect his own image and even implicate his family's image.
Therefore, all preeminent families would not underestimate the education of their daughters. Even if she was a daughter of a concubine, she had to have a passable demeanor. Otherwise, wouldn't he be laughed at for not having a strict upbringing?
Today's etiquette class was no longer about sitting quietly, but about standing posture.
Master Liu stood there in a graceful manner. He didn't say anything, but he faintly revealed his graceful bearing.
Wan Qiu carefully observed and finally figured out the key.
Although Master Liu did not move, his eyes were extremely lively. He stood there as if he knew what was going on. Her eyes were really moving.
Then, she looked at Lu Wanling. Her delicate figure was like a willow, and there was a gentle smile on her face. She had the demeanor of a young lady from a wealthy family. There was simply nothing to nitpick about.
Lu Wanjing, on the other hand, had a different attitude. She was slightly taller than Lu Wanling and had a straight back. Her smile was indifferent and there was a hint of arrogance in her eyes. There was a kind of natural nobility. Standing side by side with Lu Wanling, each of them had their own style, and each of them was good at winning!
Lu Wanning was slightly inferior to the two of them. It was mainly because Lu Wanning did not have the patience to stand for too long. There was always a lack of calmness between her brows.
Wanqiu didn't dare to be negligent. She quickly collected herself and adjusted her posture slightly. According to Teacher Liu's standing posture and her experience in her previous life, she raised her head and looked into the distance. Her shoulders were straight. Her eyes were clear and gentle, and a small smile floated on the corner of her mouth.
He was isolated from the world.
Teacher Liu ordered everyone to stand for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, then he stood idly to the side and observed everyone's standing posture. From time to time, he would suggest some areas that needed improvement.
Then, Teacher Liu's gaze fell on Wanqiu.
Master Liu looked gentle, but he was actually extremely picky. His standards for appearance and etiquette were frighteningly high. He didn't think that he would be so particular about his position in the palace…
As expected, Teacher Liu slowly walked away. He sized up Wan Qiu and praised softly,""Eldest Young Miss is truly isolated from the world. At such a young age, she actually has the potential to be a lotus.”
"Thank you for your praise, Headmaster," said Wan Qiu respectfully.”
Teacher Liu nodded in satisfaction.
When it was time to leave school, Zhang shi sent a servant girl to invite you to lunch.
The servant girl was about sixteen years old and had a good appearance. She smiled before she spoke and her speech was very clever. This was Miss Chen's eldest servant girl, Chuqing.
Thinking of Miss Chen's hypocritical face, Wan Qiu couldn't help but feel tired, but she couldn't refuse.
Lu Wanjing and Lu Wanning were quite used to it and smiled in agreement.
The happiest person was none other than Lu Wanling. She smiled and asked,"Chuqing, did Mother prepare delicious food again today?"”
Chu Qing looked at the Second Young Miss and replied with a smile,""Of course, it's what the young ladies like to eat.”
Lu Wanling chuckled. They should be the favorite food of the legitimate Eldest Miss and the pampered Second Miss! The others were just collateral damage. Everyone knew this.
Lu Wanning clapped her hands and smiled." That's great. I haven't been to Mother's place for many days!" We're going to have a good meal today." The way she called her " mother " was extremely affectionate. It was even more natural than Lu Wanling's.
Lu Wanling glanced at Lu Wanning indifferently and did not mock her. She turned her head and smiled at Wanqiu. Mother will definitely prepare a lot of delicious food for Sister again."
"When did our second sister become a gluttonous kitten?" Wanqiu smiled.”Lu Wanling pretended to be angry and said that she would tell Miss Chen later. The room was once again filled with joy and harmony. Chuqing couldn't help but take a few more glances at Wanqiu. She had heard about the change in Eldest Miss. It seemed that Young Miss and Madam were overthinking things. Although she was smart and steady, her relationship with Second Miss was still as good as before. She also trusted Madam. Chu Qing quietly sized up Wan Qiu and quickly lowered her head to lead the way for the young ladies.
Wan Qiu felt Chu Qing's gaze and guessed her thoughts. He couldn't help but smile.
Zhilan quickly followed. The person walking with Zhilan was Lu Wanling's maidservant, Si Qin.
This servant girl not only had an elegant name but her appearance was also outstanding and was one of the best in the Shen residence. Having served Lu Wanling for a long time, Si Qin had been influenced by her master. She had the temperament of a noble young lady, and her way of speaking was very refined, making people like her.
It was just an appearance! Wan Qiu sneered. In her previous life, when she was divorced in the Prime Minister's residence, she was too sad and was forced to abort. She was arranged to recuperate in the residence. No matter what, she was still the daughter of the Lu family. Who knew that the servant maids and old women often did not give them food to eat. They did not even boil the medicine sent by the doctor with charcoal. Several times, they walked on the edge of death. Many times, it was because of this servant maid. Like master, like slave!
Zhilan saw that her young lady's expression was not good and quickly walked over to support her. Only then did Wanqiu retract her thoughts. He released his clenched fists and looked ahead calmly.
Si Qin couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. Her many years of experience as a servant had already made her understand how to read people's expressions. The hatred that flashed in Eldest Miss 'eyes just now, that's right, it was hatred. Why was it like this? Could it be that she had seen wrongly?
Chuqing led the way. Lu Wanling was followed by Lu Wanning, who was all smiles. Their respective maids naturally followed behind.
The servant girl beside Lu Wanjing was called Qiu Shui. She was about the same age as Si Qin. Qiu Shui served the Old Madam, and her mother was the most popular person in the Old Madam's life, Mama Wan. Later on, the Old Madam saw that she was about the same age as Lu Wanjing and had the most thoughtful and reliable demeanor when doing things, so she sent her to be Lu Wanjing's personal servant girl. It could be seen how much Old Mrs. Han liked Lu Wanjing.
If it was just based on appearance, Autumn Water was slightly stronger than Si Qin. As for her personality, Qiu Shui was even more steady. Lu Wanling must have been envious of such a maid. She remembered that Miss Chen had asked for Qiu Shui for Lu Wanling when she was young, but the Old Mistress had not agreed. In the end, she gave it to me, Lu Wanjing. Miss Chen must have held a grudge against her. No wonder in her previous life, when Old Madam passed away, Autumn Water was given to someone else as a concubine.
As for Lu Wanning's personal maid, Cui Qiao, she was much weaker than Si Qin and Autumn Water. In terms of appearance, it was only above average, similar to Zhilan.
Looking at these maidservants, Wan Qiu could not help but feel emotional. From the servant girl, one could see the status of the master in the residence.
It was just that Wanqiu had never paid attention to this in her previous life. The higher the status, the more important it was. The quality of the maidservant beside her was naturally higher. On the contrary, those who were not doted on were obviously inferior to the maidservants. Zhilan's steadiness and carefulness were the first among Wanqiu's side. Her character and appearance were also passable. However, compared to Si Qin and Autumn Water, the difference was still very obvious. Even if it was compared to Cui Qiao, it seemed to be inferior! The Bi Luo from before was pretty, but with that kind of temperament, and she was given to her by Miss Chen! Although he was a servant, cleverness was important, and loyalty was even more important. Compared to ability, Wanqiu cared more about loyalty. Ability could be taught, but loyalty could not.
It seemed that he had to go to the Pine and Bamboo Courtyard when he had time to take a look at the maidservants beside Xuan 'er. Under the management of the Miss Chen for so many years, who knew how many of them were still loyal.
Lu Wanling saw that Wanqiu was a little absent-minded, so she smiled and asked,""Sister, what are you thinking about?"
