On the first day of October, Jinxi’s teacher came to the house to report, and other book friends read normally:.
Minrong went to Yingxi Xiaolou to talk to Jinxi for half an hour because of this matter. He just hoped that she would listen to the teachings of the tutor. Other book friends read it normally: There is something unfinished in the words, nothing more than this.
This nanny has a lot of background, so Jinxi should always pay attention to her words and deeds, and don't make the other party angry and leave.
"Ms. Xing comes from the palace, and there are countless high-ranking families who are rushing to ask her to teach. She can come to our house this time because she thinks highly of us. Although you are young, my mother knows that you are sensible. If you have
If you have any grievances, you can talk to your mother-in-law, and don’t refute her face to face."
"My daughter knows that, don't worry, Mother. Just take care of your brother." Jin Xi nodded obediently.
"After Aunt Xing comes, please calm down and don't just run to the shop. Although your mother didn't say it clearly, I can see that he doesn't want you to go to the business road. You will definitely participate in it in the future
Xiaoxuan, it’s better to stay out of business affairs.”
Although Minrong was happy that his daughter was so capable. In just one year, she brought her hundreds of taels of silver. But once she learned the rules and was strictly bound by ethics, how could she be so free?
Balancing the two aspects, she also hopes that her daughter can return her mind to the etiquette and education that a boudoir woman should have.
After all, the most important thing for a woman is to find a good marriage, not to make a prosperous business and make a lot of money like a man.
"Don't worry, E Niang. My daughter has her own sense of proportion. I won't let E Niang worry about it." After finally comforting Min Rong, Jin Xi teased her crawling little bun brother for a while, then saw Xia'er leading a young man.
A respectable woman in her forties entered the Yingxi Building.
Her "study" career in the Qing Dynasty began.
Fortunately, she has a good foundation. This is due to the fact that she majored in home economics and home management in college and graduate school.
In the talent show, the selection is based on five aspects: background, character, body, talent, appearance, etc. A group of most suitable and beautiful women are carefully selected to live in the harem, the inner house, serve tea and pour water, grind and make soup.
Give birth to an heir...
To put it bluntly, it is to select good students with both "morality, intelligence, physical fitness, beauty and labor" to enrich the large family of the Qing Dynasty royal family. Other book friends can read normally:.
Jinxi's goal is very simple, to be successfully selected, but not to be too outstanding. As long as she can find a comfortable and unnoticed job in the palace.
However, Grandma Xing's goal is grander than hers.
"Gege, you will have to play a leading role in the future. Don't think that you can relax just because you are doing well. You must keep improving."
Well, although she didn't know what a "leading role" job meant, but since Granny Xing was so earnest in admonishing her, rather than using corporal punishment such as whipping to urge her as rumored, she should try her best to cooperate.
She only mastered half of the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
It's not that she doesn't understand Qin and chess, it's just that she understands the content differently. With the guqin in her hand, she can play the sound of a guitar. With Go in her hand, after just a few steps, it becomes a five-piece line...
In desperation, Grandma Xing settled for the next best thing and asked her to learn at least one more thing. During the draft, although it was not required to be comprehensive, the ones she presented should not be too shabby.
Therefore, Jinxi decisively gave up chess and chose the piano. Every morning early in the morning, he would burn incense, cleanse his hands, and play a tune on the piano.
Not to mention, at the beginning, the sound of the piano was scattered and could not bear to be listened to. After two months of intensive training, it was finally able to be heard. With this training progress, when she turns eleven and enters the palace to participate in the election, she will undoubtedly become a piano player.
A master.
"Gege is very talented and can do whatever she learns." Aunt Xing showed a rare happy smile and praised Chao Jinxi.
"Mommy, thank you." She said modestly. The incense burner was burning spices with sandalwood essential oil, and the atmosphere was so good that she almost forgot to eat and sleep while practicing the piano.
When Grandma Xing heard that Jin Xi was so humble, the admiration in her eyes became more and more obvious.
I originally thought that Fei Yanggu, the legitimate daughter who was only seven years old, would be as arrogant and domineering as the little princess of Prince An's Mansion. Unexpectedly, she was not only well-behaved and sensible, but also exceeded the standard in completing the tentative study plan given to her every day. Book fans.
They also like to read: .so that I have to devote 100% of my energy to teaching her.
It stands to reason that as an external tutor, she only needs to teach her the general court etiquette and etiquette. As for other talents, such as playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the cooking skills of female celebrities, this kind of talent is not in her hands.
The scope of teaching.
But somehow, on the one hand, the person in the palace seemed to take a liking to her, and on the other hand, I couldn't help but like her. So, without thinking, I took out all the talents and skills I had learned throughout my life and used them as teaching content.
Daily teaching.
I hope she can live up to expectations in the draft four years from now.
………………
"Gege, today is the fifteenth day. Fujin has granted me twenty days' leave. I want to visit some of my former masters and will come back after New Year's Eve." A few days after Laba, Grandma Xing came early in the morning.
Came to Jinxi's study and announced the news.
"Won't Grandma come to my house to celebrate the New Year? I heard E Niang say... Grandma is also a person, isn't the house deserted?" Jinxi was stunned. During these days, she was busy studying every day, either various rules or all kinds of rules.
The various talents were so fulfilling that she forgot about the upcoming winter vacation.
"Haha... Thank you very much for your concern, Gege. After so many years, I have become accustomed to it. Besides, the previous masters treated me well and invited me to accompany them during the Chinese New Year. I saw that Gege was not even a child during this period.
I haven't even taken a step out of the building, it's really hard work, no, Fujin agreed, and let Ge Ge relax and take advantage of the Chinese New Year to go shopping on the streets and buy some gadgets and the like."
When Jin Xi heard this, she knew that Cheap Lady felt sorry for her. She nodded hurriedly: "That's the case, Jin Xi won't ask grandma to stay. Grandma can come back whenever she wants. Don't worry about New Year's Day or anything like that. Jin Xi is
I really regard grandma as one of my own family."
When Aunt Xing heard this, she was immediately moved. She stroked Jinxi's head and sighed secretly: She really has an exquisite and clear heart. No wonder the person in the palace thinks so highly of her.
Nowadays, among the Eight Banners Showgirls, there are still a few who can be as graceful and spiritual as she is. Book fans also like to read: "Let the movement make you move, let the stillness make you quiet." Although there are shortcomings in the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it is still good.
In the female celebrity cooking skills are at your fingertips. In the royal family, isn't it the woman with outstanding personality and beautiful appearance who is willing to nod her head?
Not to mention that she is only seven years old now, she still has at least four years to go further. Even if she were to participate in the draft right now, Grandma Xing thought to herself that Jin Xi would never be selected.
With her thirty years of experience in the palace, there is no mistaking the view that Uranala Jinxi will definitely be a strange woman who will be feared by the concubines in the harem and the descendants of the clan will compete with each other in the future.
I just don’t know which end of the scale the person in the palace will place Jinxi in the end?
She shook her head and tried not to think about these speculations that had little to do with her.
Quan Dang thinks that the big princess in front of her is one of the masters she has served. As for whether she will be transferred to the big princess in the future, that is something that the palace should worry about. She only needs to do her job well.
………………
On the 22nd of the twelfth lunar month, it was exactly two months since I returned to Nantang.
Jinxi only brought Jiangrui with her this time. Because Jiangrui was good at legs and feet, Moer volunteered to stay in the small building with Chuteng to do the cleaning for the year ahead.
After Aunt Liu and the three left the small building, Fei Yanggu wanted to buy a few more maids for Jinxi, but Jinxi refused. He said that he was learning the rules now, and too many maids would interfere with it.
Fei Yanggu saw his daughter saying this, and it made sense when he thought about it. There were not many rooms in the small building, and it should be enough to have three maids to take care of her closely. Besides, there is still Aunt Xing living downstairs, so it is easy to add more people.
Let’s talk about it later.
The reason why Jin Xi declined Fei Yanggu's kindness was mainly because Chu Teng was currently busy sewing various novel puppets. He was afraid that the newly recruited maid would talk about it without seeing and leaking business secrets, so he simply waited until the puppet shop was settled.
Say it again.
She once took a fancy to the two shops next to Miyu. Firstly, it would make it easier for her to visit the shops. Secondly, she could open up the two shops and redecorate them. The two-in-one large shop would surely gather more popularity. Other book friends would read it normally.
:.
It's a pity that the store selling groceries on the left side of Mi Yu that she likes has a lease term of until the end of next year. Although the lease term of the hardware store on the right side is only until March next year, the store is really small and the decoration
Finally, I probably won’t be able to place a few big puppets.
So, the matter of opening a puppet shop was put off again and again. After two months, Hatsuto had sewn enough puppets to fill the entire side hall, plus the storage room next to the kitchen that Hatsuto had already emptied out.
.
It seems that the process of opening a puppet store is going to be fast.
So, while she was out of the house today, she planned to go to Nantang to visit Mr. Nan, and then go for a walk on the street to search for a more suitable shop. It would be best to settle this matter before Grandma Xing returns to the house.
………………
"Hi! Uncle Mo, long time no see! How have you been lately?" Jinxi jumped off the carriage and saw Mo Linsheng cleaning the yard.
"Hi! The lovely Princess is here too? It's really lively here today. Mr. Nan must be very happy." Mo Linsheng saw that the visitor was Jin Xi, whom he hadn't seen for two months, and he laughed so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes.
"Who else is here? Could it be some minister who came here to visit Mr. Nan?" Jinxi blinked and thought about whether he needed to avoid it.
Mo Linsheng smiled and shook his head, and walked side by side to the courtyard where Mr. Nan lived. As he walked, he explained: "It is the foreign minister newly sent by the emperor. It is said that he is here to take over Mr. Nan's work. Alas, seeing Mr. Nan's
My health is getting worse and worse, and I really can no longer bear the heavy church work. Oh, by the way, Brother Si is here too, so Gege should be familiar with him, right?" When Mo Linsheng said this, he winked at Jinxi and said meaningfully
He said: "At least as soon as the fourth elder brother arrived, he asked uncle whether you had visited Nantang recently."
Seeing this, Jinxi looked at the sky speechlessly, thinking: Uncle, you are too worried. Fourth brother really hopes that I can invite him to join the puppet shop. (To be continued)
