A few days later, someone came to visit from the prime minister's house, saying that he wanted to teach the young lady how to dance. Madam Shen didn't understand at first, but it wasn't until Ah Hu invited the madam to her courtyard that she woke up and hurried to the study. find the prime minister
Prime Minister Shen was reading a book and sipping tea leisurely, as if he didn't know what was happening in the front yard.
"Master, Huner...she invited a dancer here and said she wanted to learn dancing." Mr. Shen repeatedly thought, but still felt that it would be better to tell him the truth.
Prime Minister Shen didn't even raise his head, his eyes didn't move from the book, and his hands holding the teapot didn't move as he replied: "I know, you told me about this a few days ago."
"But...Master" Mrs. Shen hesitated to speak.
"If she likes to learn, just let her learn." Shen Xiang put down the book and glanced at his wife, "I checked the background of that Qiu Niang. She used to be from the teaching workshop. There is nothing special about her."
"But Master, wouldn't it be bad if others knew that we hired someone from the studio to teach our children to dance?"
"It's nothing. If a child wants to learn something, don't adults allow it?"
Mrs. Shen thought for a moment and knew that her husband responded to her little daughter's requests and doted on her even more than she did, so she didn't say anything more.
Qiuniang's arrival undoubtedly caused a small commotion in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but the young lady seemed to treat her like a distinguished guest. She not only gave her a separate room, but also sent a maid to serve her. In the young lady's own words: "From now on , she is my teacher, so naturally I have to respect her more."
This kind of respect must be respected not only by the young lady, but also by the servants. Therefore, after a few days, the servants stopped talking and began to treat Qiuniang as a teacher. Only then did they realize that, Qiuniang does have her unique features in teaching dance skills.
She did not regard the young lady as a young lady, nor did she grovel to her, but completely regarded her as an apprentice trained by her.
The young lady had to be hung up for an hour every day. The position was very uncomfortable, with her head down and her feet up. At first, she really couldn't stand it, but she could only grit her teeth and endure it. She couldn't even walk.
The maid next to Ah Hu felt very distressed and said, "Miss, why are you working so hard? Why are you suffering so much?"
Ah Huan rubbed her legs and said: "Everything you do has to pay a price. Since I chose to learn dance skills in the first place, I can't complain about the hard work, let alone give up halfway."
After Qiuniang heard these words, she just smiled. In addition to her usual practice skills, she also often led Awen to watch her former students dance.
"What does it feel like? After seeing these dance steps, did you feel anything?" Qiuniang asked.
"It's sad, there's a feeling of sadness," Ah Huan replied.
Qiuniang's face showed a trace of joy, but she didn't express it. Ah Hu said: "Unfortunately, they did not perform very well. They only deliberately remembered the dance steps and body movements, but did not show their emotions. What a pity. Oh—is this such a good dance choreographed by Madam?"
Qiuniang was slightly startled, then nodded and replied: "Yes, Miss's eyesight is really good."
Ah Hu didn't say anything, she just memorized the movements secretly. Qiuniang once praised her for her high understanding. She could remember any dance after watching it once, and then she would infiltrate her emotions. But now, she must practice solid skills. Basic skills
The news that the lady from the Prime Minister's Mansion was learning dance skills was spreading in the palace. In order to maintain her dignified and virtuous appearance, the queen did not comment too much. However, Concubine Rou raised her eyebrows and said: "My brother is too doting on her.
What's not good about a dignified daughter of the prime minister's house? She wants to learn the dance learned by those inferior talents! Is it possible that she expects to choose a good family in the future? What a joke!"
Her sarcastic dissatisfaction reached the ears of the prime minister, who ignored her.
Naturally, the other concubines in the palace laughed at them, and even the Crown Princess found it funny: "Some people say that she is destined to be an imperial concubine. Is such a person worthy of being an imperial concubine? If she marries into the palace, how can she please her husband with this?"
Humph! The Shen family thinks very highly of themselves, if someone like this is born, it will really become a big joke!"
The prince frowned as he listened to her sarcasm, but he was very curious about Ah Hu. Most of the children of officials studied piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so why did she still learn these things? This girl could always arouse the curiosity in his heart, and he couldn't help it.
I want to find out, but I can't figure it out.
There were many people who had great reactions, but there were also some who had mediocre reactions. When Princess Yu first heard about it, she was as unsurprised as the prime minister. However, she visited her a few times later and told Ah Hu not to work too hard and to be careful with her health, etc., but she was not.
Say anything more
The princes were about to explode. They used to sneak out of the palace, but now, because there were no classes in the afternoon, they all came to the Ruan Mansion to join in the fun. Unfortunately, Ah Huan only practiced dancing in the early morning and at night. They
I have no chance to see you, I just sigh that it is a pity
However, most people are forgetful. This matter was circulated for a while and then completely quieted down. Because the parties involved had no reaction, it was not interesting for them to continue talking, not to mention that it was just a little girl who was greedy for novelty. Such rumors were just like the Zhang family
It’s like my wife is wearing a luminous pearl on her head, just talk about it
Not long after it became quiet, one night, A-Han went back to her room to rest after practicing, but Qiuniang quietly came outside Shen Xiang's study while no one was around, and knocked lightly on the door.
The light in the study room was on, and Prime Minister Shen was still working inside. When he heard the knock on the door, he was slightly startled, as if he thought of who it was, and said: "Come in."
Qiuniang opened the door and went in. She looked around very carefully so that no one would notice her, and then she stood in front of Prime Minister Shen.
But now Qiuniang is not as respectful as she was when she saw Xiang Shen before. Instead, she looked at Xiang Shen with a strange smile. Shen Xiang glanced at her sideways and said lightly: "Why are you looking for me so late?
Something?"
Qiuniang said with a smile: "I guess the Prime Minister knows my identity? Otherwise, he will not allow me to get close to the young master."
Prime Minister Shen snorted coldly and said, "You're just Xiao Wumian's lackey. Don't think that I let you into the house just to obey that brat's orders. I just wanted to satisfy my daughter."
Qiuniang smiled instead of being angry: "The Prime Minister's words are really high-sounding. When did the young master become your daughter? Does the Prime Minister want to be the Supreme Emperor?"
"You!" Xiang Shen's face was livid with anger. He pointed at the door and said, "Get out! You are not allowed to come here again. If others see it, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Qiuniang smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will never bring trouble to the little master." After saying that, she left with a sinister smile.
However, Prime Minister Shen threw the book down heavily and frowned horribly. Xiao Wumian is just a brat, and he wants to climb over him? Hum, as long as A-婠 is in his hands, when the time comes to restore the country, he will definitely let the brat take him.
