The girl who wears fast

Chapter 476 The Palace Lady Wants to Retire (2)

After leaving the palace, Wen Shichu didn't plan to go back to his hometown to marry his cousin.

The original owner is 25 years old, and her cousin will only be older than her. Men in this era have already married and had children at the age of 25, and they will be grandfathers in a few years. It is impossible to wait and see if they can. The original owner who left the palace smoothly.

Only the original owner, who is too naive and simple, would think that her cousin is still waiting for her wholeheartedly.

The original owner's parents and brothers are still there, but these family members are not reliable. Before the original owner entered the palace, he was almost sold into the kiln by his parents, just to sell more money for her younger brother to study. The original owner's mother even cried and begged her Understand the family's difficulties, don't blame your parents and brothers, saying that this is her life, and when your brother is successful in the future, he will definitely redeem her and treat her well...

Fortunately, although the original owner was naive, she was not stupid after all, and it happened to be the time when the palace was selecting maids, so she disobeyed her parents for the only time, signed up for the palace election privately, and was lucky to be selected.

The original owner also felt guilty towards his family because of this disobedience. After entering the palace, he honestly saved all his salary and sent it back to his parents.

But when Shichu came, she was not the soft-hearted and kind-hearted original owner, and she would not recognize the heartless and ungrateful family members.

She didn't even intend to go back to her hometown, so she just settled in the capital. Before she retired, she was a courtesan in the Queen's Palace. With this title, she could even work as an etiquette teacher in the Gaomen compound, teaching those rich ladies They behave well.

Of course, if she is not an etiquette teacher, she can find other things to do by herself, and she will never let herself starve to death.

Wen Shichu found an intermediary and bought a small house with a second entrance. Although the house is small, the environment is very good. Most of the people living around it are small official families of the fifth or sixth grade, and some are wealthy businessmen's families, so the security is very good. What a mess, it's very suitable for Wen Shichu, a single woman, to live in.

Famous nobles have sharp noses, Wen Shichu had only lived in Osmanthus Alley for half a month, and the butler of the Duke's family came to ask her to teach the ladies in the mansion how to behave.

She came out of the queen's palace. Although she has retired, the queen's name is good after all, so those who came to invite her respected her, and there was no contempt or contempt for her.

Wen Shichu chose Marquis Wuyang among these few families who had a better evaluation of family style. Marquis Wuyang’s family members are Ding Xingwang, and there are four or five girls in his family, and Marquis Wuyang is the most generous, so Wen Shichu At first I decided to go to his house.

"Aunt Wen, I'm begging you for the girls in my family. Please teach them how to behave well. If they do something wrong, they will be punished. We will not interfere with you." The old lady Wuyang Hou said amiably. When I first heard about it, I said.

"Old lady, please rest assured. Since you trust me and hand them over to me, then I will naturally teach them well and live up to the old lady's trust." Wen Shichu said.

Wen Shichu didn't have much time to attend classes. After all, ladies still have to take other courses. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all compulsory for ladies. Besides, there are female celebrities, which are also very important courses, so Wen Shichu The etiquette and etiquette class of elementary education only took up one hour of the day.

Wen Shichu is not a very strict teacher. The young ladies of Wuyang Hou’s family, the oldest is 12 years old, and the youngest is only [-] years old. They are at their most innocent and lively. Curriculum that restrains them and restricts their nature, so they often can't last for too long.

"Aunt Wen, can I take a rest, just standing like this is exhausting." Li Ming'an, the third daughter of Marquis Wuyang, asked Wen Shichu coquettishly.

Wen Shichu shook his head: "No, you haven't even had half a stick of incense left, so you can't stop."

"But, but I'm still young. My sisters are older than me, so they have to stand for a long time. I'm young, so I have to stand for a shorter time!" Li Mingan said, blinking her beautiful big eyes.

"No matter how short it is, it can't be so short that half a stick of incense doesn't reach it, right? Stop talking, if you continue, I'll let you stand for two sticks of incense." Wen Shichu said without any mercy.

"That's right, third sister, don't try to play tricks, I have to stand for two sticks of incense and I haven't said anything yet!" Second Miss Li Mingxiu said with curled lips.

"Second Miss, don't make such indecent gestures!" Wen Shichu couldn't help reminding when she saw her curling her lips, "Also, straighten your chest, don't shrug your shoulders limply, This will make you look bad, and after a long time, your spine will grow crooked."

Hearing this, Li Mingxiu immediately puffed up her chest, not daring to look around randomly anymore.

Li Ming'an gloated and murmured: "It's what you deserve!" He stared at her indifferently when he heard about it, and immediately turned serious and closed his mouth.

Among the three girls, the most well-behaved and sensible one is the eldest girl Li Minghui. Although the two younger sisters move around from time to time, or can't help talking, or making small movements, she doesn't seem to hear or see at all. Don't move, she will keep what Wen Shichu asked her to do, even if her little face is flushed from exhaustion, she still has to grit her teeth and persevere.

Teachers love obedient and sensible children, and Wen Shichu is no exception, so she praised Li Minghui: "Miss really deserves to be the eldest sister, she has the best demeanor, lasts the longest, and can keep quiet, Very elder sister demeanor."

When Li Minghui heard this, she blushed immediately, proud and shy, but she still remained motionless, which did not affect her standing posture in the slightest.

I was very satisfied when I heard it.

About half an hour later, the three girls finished today's etiquette class, and Shi Shiran left work after Wen Shichu. Her job is really rich and free, and it is simply the best state of life for a court lady after retirement. choose.

As long as she doesn't get involved in the family affairs of the master's family, she is the most comfortable and leisurely person.

Unfortunately, Wen Shichu bumped into her most worry-free student—Li Minghui, who seemed to be secretly dating a poor student with a family background.

As I said earlier, Ding Xingwang of the Marquis of Wuyang’s family does not only refer to the Marquis of Wuyang, but also other offshoots. With a large population, not everyone is rich enough to worry about food and clothing. Those who do well are like Marquis Wuyang, and those who do not do well are almost like ordinary peasants.

Marquis Wuyang is the main branch after all. Whether it is for fame or the long-term development of the family, the cultivation of other children of the family is indispensable. Therefore, Marquis Wuyang established a family study to take in the children of the family who are talented in reading. Ask the teacher to teach them to read for the long-term development of the family.

However, a big family has a large population, so there are naturally many relatives. The ethnology has been in operation for a long time, and gradually even the children of relatives are included.
