I was already very tired to begin with, so I thought I could rest a bit, but in the end I still had to find Bai Jing. I wasn't willing to part with him even a thousand times, but right now, I'm still relying on others, and I can only struggle up and follow Xia Shui to the great hall.
In the end, I didn't see Qi Mo but Bai Chen was sitting next to a white field. I instantly felt a black line above my head, thinking it would be better if Qi Mo was here, since he had always been prejudiced against me so I didn't have the strength to argue with him today.
"Why are you so slow? We've been waiting for you for such a long time." Sure enough, the moment Bai Chen saw me, he immediately became impatient.
"The mama said that a woman shouldn't walk too fast, that her steps shouldn't be too big, and that she should be graceful and generous." "I was too slow." I looked at him.
Bai Chen never thought that I would say such a thing and didn't know how to explain himself to me. He could only stare at me, face and ears flushed red.
"Seems like you've learned quite well there." Bai Jing, on the other hand, watched us argue for a while before slowly speaking up.
"Don't worry, I won't embarrass you." I opened my mouth. Then he sat down.
When Bai Jing saw my posture, a rare smile appeared in his eyes. "I thought you would have made a lot of progress, but in the end, you're just putting on an act."
"Didn't you say so? As long as I put on an act, I won't be able to become a big family's young lady." I looked at him with disdain.
"Very good, you should remember my words clearly." Bai Jing narrowed his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Of course, I'm eating from your house right now. You're the boss, how can I not remember what you said?"
Bai Jing seemed to be very satisfied with my performance. He didn't say anything else and waved to the maidservants to prepare the dishes. Soon, a table of dishes was served.
"Alright, you can all go now." "Let's go," Bai Jing ordered, and everyone left. The three of us were the only ones left in the room, and without so many people watching me eat, I felt much more comfortable.
"Third brother, why did you make her eat with us?" Bai Chen had a face full of hunger and unwillingness.
I said it as if I really wanted to eat with them. I ate more comfortably by myself. I lowered my head and dug into my mouth, thinking to myself.
"We will be family from now on. If we don't eat together, it will arouse the suspicion of others." Bai Jing looked at Bai Chen and said. It could be seen that he really loved this little brother of his.
"Alright, then this young master will reluctantly accompany you to eat." Bai Chen said while looking at me.
I looked up and squeezed out a standard eight-tooth smirk. "Thank you, young master."
"Enough, the smile is uglier than not smiling at all." Bai Chen said with a look of disdain.
I don't feel like arguing with him, my entire body is aching, I need to finish eating quickly so Xia Shui can help me massage it.
Very quickly, we were all done eating. Bai Jing called a servant over to pack up the table. I looked at him without any intention of saying anything else, so I stood up and bowed. I had just learnt it today, "If there's nothing else, then I'll be going back. I still need to go over what Senior Servant taught me today."
Bai Jing looked at me with surprise on his face. "I didn't expect you to learn so quickly." Bai Chen circled around me twice before commenting.
Bai Ming nodded his head, and I turned around to leave, but my knees were in extreme pain. Xia Shui immediately came forward to support me, I gave her a praising look, and was very observant of her words.
"Wait a moment." We had only taken a few steps when Bai Jing's voice came from behind us.
Bai Jing looked at my knee and said, "I have good wounds there. I'll get someone to give them to you to reduce the pain." No emotion could be seen on his face.
At first, I was stunned, but before I could react, Xia Shui lightly pushed my arm, and then I kneeled down to express my gratitude, "Thank you, Your Highness."
Soon, the butler brought my waist over and placed it in a small porcelain bottle. My entire body was snow-white and was extremely exquisite. I was unable to let go of it.
Returning to my bedroom, Xia Shui first took out some ice cubes to give me a cold compress, then he took out the medicine Bai Jing gave me, and held out a specially made medicine for me to wipe away the cold. It was made of jade, and when it touched my skin, it was ice-cold and very comfortable.
"This medicine is really effective." I said, holding the vial.
"The things that the Prince has given us are naturally not bad." Xia Shui agreed.
"Xia Shui, show me the book that Senior Servant Mu left behind today. I want to review it." I sat on the bed.
"Miss, it's getting late. We'll see tomorrow." Xia Shui hesitated to advise me.
"It's fine, I'll take a look tonight. It's more convenient when training tomorrow. If I don't look at it myself, I'll have to learn how long it is before I hand it over one by one. I still have things to do." I sighed. Since high school, I have never felt like reading at night like this. I never thought that I, who was so lazy, would also have today. If I had used my current strength during the college entrance examination, I would have definitely done better than just staying idle.
I flipped through the book that the mama had left me and wailed, "The ancient people are all troublesome. There are so many rules. I really can't remember." I covered my face with the book and lay back on the bed. I closed my eyes.
I accidentally fell asleep, and after a while, it was Xia Shui who woke me up. "Big sister, it's already late in the night, if I don't sleep now, I won't be able to get up tomorrow morning." Xia Shui helped me to move the book away from my face.
I sleepily looked at Xia Shui, then nodded my head. I have to get up early tomorrow.
Maybe it was because I was too tired during the day, so after a while, I fell asleep and had a lot of dreams, but when I woke up, I couldn't remember anything at all.
After washing up and eating breakfast, I picked up the book and started flipping through it again. Although I didn't have the ability to remember with my eyes, my memory wasn't bad. I could still remember most of what I read last night.
"The mama has arrived." I was still watching and contacting her when I heard the sound of a maid being sent outside the door. I hurriedly got up to receive Xia Shui.
"You've learned quite a lot about hospitality." Mammy looked at me with admiration in her eyes.
"Thank you, mama." I saluted him with a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing.
I asked Xia Shui to prepare a cup of tea and respectfully gave it to Grandma. Grandma took a sip and said, "Since that's the case, I'll teach you to taste the tea and flower arrangement today. This is also the lesson all the young mistresses want to learn."
"As Senior Servant commands." I said respectfully.
