Chapter 261
Nanny
Due to his status as Princess Huaiping and the embarrassing status of King Qin.
The two sisters were sitting on one side, with no one else around them except Zhe Xue and Shen Zhengqing's girl Lu Luo.
Shen Zhengqing has two maids, one in green dress and one in red dress.
These two maids grew up with Shen Zhengqing. They were different from the maids in the mansion who later went to Beijing to buy them.
Lu Luo was originally about to talk to Zhe Xue, but when she saw her folding her arms and frowning, looking like she was not to be approached by strangers, she couldn't help but move aside.
I don’t know how my cousin brought such a scary maid. She is not approachable or likeable at all.
Seeing that the little girl with a round face seemed to be afraid of her, Zhe Xue stepped aside and raised her eyebrows. She deliberately untied the soft whip from her waist and played with it in her hand.
Lu Luo didn't expect that the strange belt around her waist was actually a whip, and her eyes widened.
This man, this man actually carries a whip with him. He is not going to a battlefield, this is a flower viewing party!
Lu Xiangge didn't notice the quarrel between the two people behind her. She had a conversation with Shen Zhengqing and saw two little girls of similar age walking over together.
Lu Xiangge only felt that the girl walking in front looked familiar, but he was also sure that he had never seen this girl before. Maybe she had met her father and brother, right?
Here are the two daughters of Qi Yuan, the Minister of Rites, the legitimate daughter Qi Yuan and the concubine Qi Qing.
Qi Yuan originally did not intend to talk to Princess Huaiping, but her concubine Qi Qing said that as a courtesy, they should come to see Princess Huaiping.
Here, Princess Huaiping has the highest status.
Qi Yuan was a little unhappy. It didn't matter that Princess Huaiping had a high status, but she was just an orphan from the countryside.
But she also knew that what Qi Qing said was right, and they could not lose their dignity.
The Qi sisters came over, talked to Li, and quickly made excuses to go elsewhere.
Lu Sheige asked: "Sister, when you went to banquets before, did these people behave like this?"
Not enough closeness, more than enough coldness!
Shen Zhengqing glanced at Lu Sheige's face, pursed his lips and whispered, "I'm not familiar with them."
When she came to Beijing, she only attended a few banquets.
That time at Prince Qin's Mansion, she and her mother were so busy that they had to receive female guests, and they had no time to care about other people's attitudes towards her.
What's more, it was in Prince Qin's Mansion, and she was entertaining guests as the host. Who dared to look down on her?
"It's okay if you're not familiar with her." Lu Shengge took Shen Zhengqing's hand and said, "Sister, let's go to the garden for a walk."
It's still early, and there's no point in sitting here. Why not go for a walk in the garden, maybe you can meet someone you might meet.
Shen Zhengqing hesitated for a moment, glanced at the prying eyes around him, and immediately stood up: "Okay, let's go for a walk."
The two sisters took two maids with them, chose a path with few people, and walked towards the rockery.
The garden of Zhenguo Duke's Mansion is huge. After walking around it for a long time, it was soon far away from the young ladies and maids who gathered to look at the flowers and enjoy the scenery.
It deserves to be called the Duke's Mansion. Even in this secluded place, there are two little maids standing cutely in every corner, always paying attention to the needs of the guests.
I saw Shen Zhengqing and Lu Shengge coming over with two maids, standing aside talking.
One of the two little maids came over and asked diligently: "Slave Xiaofu, could you please prepare stools and tea for the two girls?"
"No need." Lu Sheige waved his hand, "We will just stand for a while, you don't need to worry about us."
I just had tea and snacks in the flower hall. After sitting there for so long, I'm not tired, hungry or thirsty.
The little maid bowed and said softly: "Yes, girls, if you need anything, please tell me. There are people in this yard, on every road, and at every turn."
Seeing that the two girls really didn't need anything, the little maid retreated again.
Shen Zhengqing looked at it and secretly smacked his lips: "The rules in this house are really good."
It's really good. This garden is so big, so many maids and women need to guard it, let alone other places.
Although it was a flower viewing banquet today, most of the guests were female relatives, but there were also many male guests. The guests Tang Jinming and Zhen Guogong entertained in the front yard were not ordinary people, they were all prominent figures in the court.
If the front yard is the same as the garden, then the servants and guards are used in the front yard.
There are only three masters in a Zhenguo Duke's mansion, but he has hundreds of maids and wives. Plus the servants and guards in the mansion, there must be at least two to three hundred people.
There were two or three hundred people surrounding the three masters. Not only did it cost a lot of money to manage the people and things in this large stall, but it also took a lot of effort to take care of the affairs of this large stall.
"That's just our family." Lu Sheige sighed with a smile, "For example, I, the noble princess, only have a maid, and she is still unqualified."
Zhe Xue, who was standing not far behind Lu Sige, immediately retorted: "I'm not a maid, I'm a bodyguard."
"Look." Lu Shege spread his hands, "I don't even have half a maid anymore."
"My mother told me last time you came home that she would choose some maids for you." Shen Zhengqing put Lu Shengge's ear in and whispered, "Mother chose four and said they would send them to your house in a few days.
, Mother also told my aunt that she would give you a nanny to take care of things, and she would also teach you the rules."
Lu Xiuge's chest felt tight after hearing this, but he couldn't say no, so he could only ask: "Why didn't I know what happened when?"
Shen Zhengqing looked sympathetic: "I heard from my mother that someone sent me to your house early this morning. Didn't you see it?"
It shouldn't be. Didn't mother say that my cousin came late because the palace sent a nanny?
"I didn't see it, I probably missed it." Lu Xiangge thought to himself, why don't he go home tonight and stay in Yiyuan for a few days.
"You'll see it when you get back." Shen Zhengqing was full of sympathy, "When I first came here, my aunt also gave me a nanny."
When Shen Zhengqing mentioned the nun who gave it to her for upbringing, there was an unspeakable history of blood and tears in Shen Zhengqing's heart.
Those days were simply torture!
Since she was a child, she was favored by her older brothers. Although her mother was also a rule-abiding person, she only wanted to be decent in sitting, lying and walking.
Who would have expected that the requirements of the nuns in the palace would be so severe.
Grandma stayed at home for more than half a year, and she lived in dire straits for most of that year, feeling like she was stepping on the tip of a knife every day.
But she can't complain or be willful, because she is Empress Shen's niece and a girl of the Shen family.
However, the nun in the palace is indeed very capable. Whether she is sitting, lying or walking, she is almost the same as those girls from aristocratic families.
This is probably the reason why my aunt specially sent the nanny to teach me. It is precisely because she understands this intention that she can endure such harsh doctrines.
Now it was the younger sister's turn, and Shen Zhengqing had to sympathize with her.
She could no longer imagine the days of suffering.
I don’t know if my little sister can endure it.
