"Drinking tea can calm one's mind and nurture one's mind. When treating a guest to tea, serve it with both hands and place the teacup in front of the guest's right hand. "When you drink your own tea, take small sips of it. You can't make cow wine to be full of fragrance." The Mammy celebrity took two sets of tea sets and began to demonstrate them to me.
Perhaps it was because she didn't think that the maids beside her had made it good enough, but she had shown it herself.
I also learned to do it. About an hour later, I became more and more proficient in doing it before the mama allowed me to stop.
Later on, when I said that studying flower arranging and Mammy saying that this could reflect my cultivation character, I felt that she said a lot and that it was probably enough to reflect a person's taste. I was still very worried about the project, because my taste was generally not good, and my sensitivity to color was not as high as the Arabic numerals.
"Grandma, is this yellow compatible?" I was holding a bright yellow flower without a name.
"You can give it a try, but your current flowers mainly have plain colors. If you add this in, it won't be beautiful enough." The mama was very tactful.
"You don't have any other talent for arranging flowers. You should train more. This is also a pleasure for women. You can't lose to others." For once, the mama's face showed an expression that was as good as rotten wood.
"Momo, I'm done." As a result of my efforts, my first flower arrangement was produced.
The mama glanced at it and took another sip of tea before saying, "This color of yours is simply too bold and bold. It looks dazzling and dazzling, but its color is too chaotic. It would be a little noisy and would need to be further refined." Senior Servant Gui's evaluation of her was rather accurate.
"Your interruptions are indeed very similar to your own personality. Having your own style is also not bad, at least it's more pleasing to the eye than those noble young ladies in a set." Mammy added one last time.
I didn't expect Mammy to say this in front of me. Mammy, on the other hand, was an honest woman who didn't bother to hide her annoyance at the boring people she spoke of.
"Alright, you just need to grasp a little bit of this flower arrangement. There's no need to force yourself." Mammy looked at me and said.
I looked at Mammy gratefully. Right now, I am extremely shameless towards the Mammy on TV. It's not as bad as those writers depicting it. On the contrary, it's very kind and considerate.
You must remember that you are the eldest miss of the Duke Palace, your two brothers are the Great Generals, and your sworn brother is the Prince. Your current status is much higher than the average Miss Venerable, and even if you are a princess, you need to treat them with respect. Mammy looked me in the eye.
In this era where the strong preyed on the weak, the minds of the women in these deep courtyards are much dirtier than you can imagine. In this era where the weak preyed on the weak, the hearts of the women in these deep courtyards are much dirtier than you can imagine. Mammy's eyes were filled with deep concern for my future.
I was very touched. "Don't worry, mama. I won't lose out."
"I know your temperament. You are not someone who will suffer losses, but your mind is not mature enough. It is inevitable that you will not be tricked by those who have been fighting in power since young." The wet nurse still had a worried look on her face.
Every day I would learn the rules and regulations from my mother, and every day Bai Jing would also send me over for dinner. Sometimes Bai Chen was there, sometimes Qi Mo was there, and occasionally they would all be there.
After the day was over, I went into the hall to have dinner with them as usual, but as soon as I entered, I found myself alone with Bai Jing. The atmosphere was a little awkward, and when I sat down beside Bai Jing, I looked at him, but he didn't even bat an eyelid since I entered.
After a while, I glanced at him again, and he happened to be looking at me, too. Bai Jing put down the book he was holding and handed it to the servant. Then he picked up his chopsticks and told me.
"Just the two of us?" I asked unintentionally.
"Yes, Qi Mo has matters to attend to. Chen'er and her good friend will be eating at the restaurant together." Bai Jing's shortened explanation.
I let out an "oh" and didn't say anything else. It was mainly because even if I said Bai Jing, he wouldn't care about me.
"After learning the rules for a few days, I can't speak at all." Bai Jing looked at me with disdain.
"Huh?" I was a little slow on the uptake.
"It's nothing. Your granny won't be coming tomorrow. Your granny said you learned very well. The ceremony will be held the day after tomorrow." Bai Jing continued.
"The day after tomorrow. So fast." I was surprised.
"Go and make some clothes tomorrow to buy what you need." Bai Jing didn't answer my question. He just continued talking to himself.
"Then can I go out shopping?" I looked at Bai Jing with glowing eyes.
"The tailor can come to the shop and make it for you." It was hard to tell if Bai Jing was doing it on purpose or not seeing the surprise in my eyes.
"No need, no need. I've been thinking of leaving for a long time now. Even if I wanted to stay here, I would need to grow some grass." I quickly refused.
"Do you really not want to stay in the prince's mansion?" A hint of displeasure flashed across Bai Jing's eyes.
I was so scared that I quickly explained, "No, how could that be possible? The palace is my home, I just want to see the scenery outside. People can't just see the same scenery for their entire lives." I put a braised lion's head in my mouth and laughed.
Bai Jing was indeed a vegetarian. He would only choose the dishes listed on the menu for a whole table of dishes. No wonder his skin was so good. I lamented in my heart.
After we finished eating, Bai Jing and I chatted for a bit before we left. I knew that we could go shopping tomorrow without having to learn the rules. I was very excited as my footsteps had become a lot lighter than before.
"Elder sister, you've been laughing foolishly all day." Xia Shui finally could no longer endure it any longer.
"I can finally get out. Of course I'm excited." I laughed.
"Elder sister really desires the outside world." As Xia Shui made the bed, he expressed her confusion.
"Of course, the outside world is so wonderful. It's much better to be free. In our world, we have a famous saying: 'Life is precious, love is priceless.' If you are free, you can throw away both sides." I dutifully brainwash Xia Shui.
"Freedom, this is the only thing big sister wants." Xia Shui looked at me suspiciously.
"Of course, I am also a person who values life a lot, but freedom is still my first choice." I thought hard for an answer.
Because I was too excited, I succeeded in losing sleep at night and I chatted with Xia Shui for a while. When they got to the point where Xia Shui's uniform breathing had already arrived, I closed my mouth.
