Chapter 112
Chapter 112
Since ancient times, kings have been unlucky. They are the most ruthless emperors. "Keep your waist straight. Lift your chin and don't shrink your face in."
Chu Jinyao practiced the greeting posture askew according to Qin Yi's instructions. Chu Jinyao thought to herself that Qi Ze sounded bad tempered. Unexpectedly, he was patient when teaching people. He would correct her mistakes bit by bit without scolding.
"Don't shake."
"I don't want to shake," Chu Jinyao said hard, "but I can't control it."
Qin Yi was quite satisfied with the "disciple" who was lucky to be instructed by himself. Although Chu Jinyao was clumsy, he suffered a lot. He changed immediately after he said it, which was much better than those chirping women in the palace. Qin Yi said, "I'm tired. Let's have a rest."
Chu Jinyao was sweating on her forehead, but she shook her head and said, "no, I've just put this action right. If you rest, you'll have to correct it one by one. I'll keep it like this for a while until I remember it."
After hearing this, Qin Yi would look up at Chu Jinyao. Unexpectedly, she was a bitter one. Ordinary daughter, who is willing to embarrass herself like this?
When Chu Jinyao made sure she remembered it, she fell to the ground with a cry and hurriedly beat her calf: "it's so sour."
Qin Yi deliberately said not to sit on the ground and not to expose his legs out of his skirt, which is more serious than asking for an salute. But he looked at Chu Jinyao's white lips and didn't say anything at last.
Chu Jinyao had a good rest, took the initiative to stand up and said, "let's continue to practice."
"OK." Qin Yi looked at Chu Jinyao's shaky figure and said faintly, "I'll teach you how to sit. Now go to the stool and sit on your legs."
"OK!" Chu Jinyao hurriedly sat down on the round stool. A brocade cushion was sewn on the stool. She sat very comfortable. Her trembling legs were much better. Chu Jinyao waited for a while and couldn't help asking, "then?"
Qin Yi wanted to sigh. Look at her eyesight price. He can only say: "when greeting, you should pay attention to what you say in addition to the blessing ceremony. Different people say different words, that is, the same person makes different speeches at different times."
Chu Jinyao nodded after being taught, and Qin Yi continued: "You're a woman, and your manners are actually too relaxed. If you're an elder, it's OK for you to make a mistake accidentally. It's OK to say a flattering word with your elders. Especially if you're still in Shanxi, there are few other surnames except the Chu family. Only people bump into you, and you don't bump into people, so you don't have to be so frightened. Under your elders, people of the same generation don't care. Let them give you You salute, but you are the undertaker. You should pay more attention. "
Chu Jinyao vaguely felt that she was not quite right. She didn't care what her peers did. Even if her peers saluted her, she didn't dare to accept it. However, they kindly explained that Chu Jinyao didn't interrupt without interest, but asked modestly: "why should we pay attention to the subordinates?"
"You can't do everything yourself. You can know people, use people, intimidate people and pretend to be deaf. These are the most important things in the palace... For example, the servant girl who curtain you in your mother's room today. If she is willing to teach you a lesson, it means that this person can be seduced. Otherwise, it's hard to intervene to teach someone else's servant girl Who will do the thankless things? And the old lady, she must be ashamed of you. You can use her at the right time. "
Chu Jinyao was shocked: "you went out with me all day today, and you read so much?"
"It won't take me a day to know people," Qin Yi reminded unhappily. "Listen carefully and don't interrupt."
"Oh." Chu Jinyao hurriedly sat down. She has seen a lot. Qi Ze, a newly refined jade pendant, knows more about human feelings and the world than she does. Chu Jinyao is amazing. Maybe her jade pendant is very smart? Chu Jinyao asked, "you said you could use mother Zhang. What do you say?"
"You know how to cry in front of me. How can you be confused here?" Qin Yi said coolly. "Go and cry with her. Poor thing. She is an old mother in the house and is ashamed of you. She can make you feel better if she does anything at will. For example, deal with the two servant girls in your house."
"You mean, Camellia?"
Qin Yi smiled softly: "not silly, at least I can understand three points."
Chu Jinyao also chuckled. It was not easy for Qi Ze to praise her. Chu Jinyao sighed after laughing: "I've seen a lot of sneaky people in the village. Mountain tea is not as good as our aunt next door. For example, today, if I hadn't let clove lock the cloud brocade, mountain tea would have to rely on me for not knowing how to cut my clothes. I don't know how many things I have! But clove is honest. In fact, it doesn't hurt to stay."
"HMM." Qin Yi replied in a low voice, obviously agreeing with Chu Jinyao. He added later: "you are a money fan."
After that, Qin Yi himself was a little stunned. He was just joking with someone? Even a little girl?
"I'm not a financial fan. How much is a piece of cloud brocade? The big girl and the four girls laugh when they see it. How many good things have they used to get their eyes? Don't I have to look good?" Chu Jinyao didn't realize Qin Yi's mistake and smiled.
Qin Yi was very complicated, but when he heard Chu Jinyao's words, he couldn't think about what was wrong with him today. Instead, he asked, "do you like Yunjin very much?"
"Of course. It's as brilliant as clouds. Who doesn't like it?"
Qin Yi gave a low "um" and didn't speak, but he thought that when he went back, someone would send a batch to Chu Jinyao. Naturally, not in his name.
Chu Jinyao thought of the cloud brocade and said with a smile: "The cloud brocade has a good color and is plain and light. I can do everything generously on the table. I only need to make a short jacket. I can take it out to meet customers. I want to send the rest to my sister. She stuffed me with two sets of clothes in front of everyone. I'm afraid it's difficult for her to make in her husband's house. Anyway, I don't lack clothes. I'll give it to her. When she gives birth to a nephew next year, I'll make clothes for her nephew."
Qin Yi listened and was silent for a moment before he asked, "you like that cloud brocade so much. Why do you want to send it out?"
"I came back to the Marquis house from the farmhouse at once. I don't have to live a poor life. There are still people to serve me. It's time to be satisfied. Although my father threw me in and didn't take care of me, I still thank him very much. If it weren't for him, how could I live today? My father doesn't need anything. I don't know how to repay him. I can only take my time later. But my sister, this can be done right away!"
Chu Jinyao thinks of her relatives who have lived together for 13 years, and her eyes become nostalgic. Although the Chu family is her real relatives, she has sincerely taken charge of the Su family in the past 13 years. Chu Jinyao recalls the past and whispers: "My parents were always unkind to me. I thought it was because I was a girl and my character was not pleasant. Later, I learned that they always knew who I was. They loved their real daughter and changed her to the Hou's house for happiness. I can understand their parents' heart. It was really difficult to live in poverty. But I can't forgive them and want my daughter It's human nature to enjoy happiness, but I'm the one they sacrificed. I was separated from my parents and sisters when I was young. Even if I was found back, I'm as unfamiliar as a stranger. Who should apologize for my disturbed life? The Su family raised me anyway. I think they will not step back on the Su family as soon as I get the power, but I can't continue to be filial and take whatever I want. I became Miss Hou men , I have no shortage of food and clothing, but I don't want to pull the adoptive parents who are still suffering. Do you think I'm particularly selfish? "
Qin Yi listens quietly. The mistake disrupted the two families. Even if they return now, the scars will not be eliminated in a moment and a half. Moreover, to put it mildly, Chu Jinyao was the most injured in this incident. She was forced to leave the Su family and the familiar environment. After returning home, she had to adapt to the new environment and endure coldness and exclusion. In the process, Su What did father Su and mother, including Chu Jinmiao, pay?
"No." Qin Yi comforted people for the first time and said to Chu Jinyao in a strange soft voice, "you've done a good job. It's good to distinguish between kindness and resentment and have goodwill."
Chu Jinyao wiped away the quietly flowing tears. She fell into memories and thought. Her eyes were full of tears, but her mouth showed a faint smile: "Although Su's father and mother are bad to me and Su Sheng always bullies me, there are always good people. Although she knew I was not a Su's child for a long time and didn't say a good word to me at ordinary times, it was cold and she rushed to fetch water every time. She said she disliked my slow hand. In fact, I know that she loves my frostbite on my hand. When I was a child, my father was drunk every time She pushed me out and asked me to mow the grass. She had no relatives with me. I really appreciate her for doing so. "Chu Jinyao said with a sour nose. Knowing that Qin Yi didn't like people to cry, she quickly blinked and forced back her tears, "My life is getting better now. I can't help her. I can only try my best to give her some money to keep her from washing clothes in winter."
Qin Yi didn't speak for a long time. He seldom comforted girls. He even rarely listened to others' complaints. In his world, there were dark red and majestic palace walls, respectful and shrewd palace people, a peaceful life of singing and dancing, and women with beautiful faces but a heart like scorpions. He also saw many women cry, but women in the palace can cry pear flowers and rain even if they cry. It's just right. This is Qin Yi For the first time, Yi listened quietly to a girl talk about the suffering of the world.
Qin Yisu hated people crying most, but Chu Jinyao didn't dislike it this time. After a while, he said, "Yunjin is too valuable. Even if you can toss and turn and deliver it to your sister, I'm afraid she can't use it. Maybe it will cause trouble."
"I know. But I have no other money. This brocade is my only private property."
"These won't be a problem. Wipe your tears and don't think about them."
"How can I not?" Chu Jinyao was about to be amused. "I don't think about these myself. Will money fall from the sky?"
Qin Yi suddenly asked, "if you meet a big man, who is very tall and expensive... Well, he is taller than your father Chu Jing. Is he willing to help you?"
"If he is willing to help me, can I bear it in vain?" Chu Jinyao said, gently pointing the jade pendant with his fingertips, "You've just come into the world. It's hard to avoid thinking about going to heaven step by step, but I tell you, this idea is not good. It's not good to rely on everyone to run and place your hope on others. Even if it's a big man. It seems that I have to look at you well. Don't let me pay no attention for a moment. You've been cheated!"
"By you?"
"Hey, why can't I? I dare not say anything else. I'm more than enough to protect you."
Qin Yi smiled softly, and Chu Jinyao continued, "you should listen to me in the future, or I won't care about you."
Qin Yi thought it funny. After laughing, he didn't bother to correct Chu Jinyao, but grabbed another point: "I'm not just here. Do I say you can speak?"
"I'm doing it for you." Chu Jinyao was afraid of Qin Yi's wrong idea of taking a shortcut. She showed her magic power in front of big people, but took herself in.
Qin Yi sneered: "you're still worried about me... Take good care of that cloud brocade. Keep it for yourself if you like. You don't have to worry about the money and your sister."
His sweeping tone... Chu Jinyao felt funny, but he didn't want to brush his kindness, so he smiled and said, "OK, I'll rely on you in the future."
Chu Jinyao just joked casually and soon forgot after laughing, but Qin Yi didn't refute. Chu Jinyao doesn't know what this joke means.
There's no way to deal with Su Hui for a while. Chu Jinyao just came home and didn't stand firm. How can she stretch out her hand outside the house to pull her sister. I'm afraid her things were divided up by servants before they came out of the Hou house. What's more, they will cause trouble for themselves. Chu Jinyao understands this truth. Su Hui can't be in a hurry and can't save money. She can only slowly learn the etiquette of a young woman under the guidance of Qin Yi.
In fact, human relations all over the world communicate with each other. Chu Jinyao didn't get started and didn't know how to do it. But now Qin Yi is giving advice, and Chu Jinyao will soon get started. And etiquette these things, laymen blindly flutter all day, not as good as laymen. With the help of people like Qin Yi who have extremely poisonous eyes, Chu Jinyao is willing to work hard. In the past ten days, Chu Jinyao can do it well.
Even the girls in Zhao's room said that the five girls seemed to be reborn and enlightened at once. Although the rules are not as good as those of the other girls, they have been improved just by their posture.
As for dressing and jewelry... Women are naturally malleable in this regard. It wasn't long before Chu Jinyao knew all about these dailuo lipstick, and Qin Yi admired it very much.
After a difficult adaptation period, Chu Jinyao walked on the winding corridor of the Hou gate, and finally felt no more vain and bottomless. In this painful process, her mother didn't care about her, her father didn't see anyone at all, and her other relatives didn't care about themselves. It was Qin Yi who had known her for a few days that really helped her.
Chu Jinyao always wanted to get close to her mother. However, her mother refused to look at her. After Chu Jinyao passed the difficult transformation period, she didn't have such a strong admiration for Zhao.
Because the stage when she needs her mother most has passed.
Chu Jinyao was wearing a dark green jacket with a vertical collar and a pair of lapels, with a wishful buckle on the skirt, a light green tangled flower horse face skirt below, rabbit hair boots on her feet, and walked gently towards the Yi'an courtyard. She looked at the front with straight shoulders and straight waist. The interval between each step was basically the same, neither fast nor slow, stable and light. After entering the gate, the sweeping woman in the yard stopped to say hello to Chu Jinyao. Chu Jinyao stopped slightly and nodded and smiled at the servant girl.
According to Qin Yi, Chu Jinyao smiled slightly and didn't move too much. However, her eyes are round and black. These days, her face has become fat. Her original sharp face has become an egg face. When she smiles, her eyes seem to have stars, and the dimples on the side of her face are looming, which can be sweet to people's heart.
