Clearly, she doesn't want to be a concubine

Chapter 4

Everyone laughed, looking a little uncomfortable.

Although they are not young ladies from famous families, being masters at home is no better than serving as maids.

But for those who entered the palace, everything became a joke.

Umalu's mind is not on this.

Her heart is impetuous, and she doesn't care about it.

All of this, to her, is nothing but a big dream, she just needs to find a way to wake up from the dream.

So, it's okay to be someone's servant.

She used to go to work and had to deal with the demands of Party A, her boss and her supervisor.

It's almost the same now, I don't have to deal with the people around me.

The problem is not big.

She sighed, and said leisurely: "That's what you said, but I don't know what will happen after this."

Dai Jia Yueyue said: "The left is just to learn the rules, and then go to a certain palace."

Dai Jia Yueyue comforted: "It's still the same sentence, we have our own duties, and we just live. If you are valued by the master, it will save a lot of money. Why is it not a rush."

Wu Yaqinghuan also said this.

Umalu probably has a solid understanding of the current life.

Dai Jia Yueyue put up the dim sum she was carrying, and said, "I went next door to listen to their chat. They said that there was an aunt in the tea service who wanted to ask for one. But I don't know if the news is true or not."

Wanliu Ha Niuniu snorted, "Don't say these things, let the aunts hear it, that would be terrible."

Wanliu Hanuniu changed the subject: "I don't know where our batch will go."

Sister Wei Shuang showed a smile, like a floret in the wind, weak and weak: "I hope to be closer to my parents."

She whispered: "Although you can't get married after entering the palace, but you are with your parents anyway, so it's very good."

The few of them chatted frequently, so they naturally knew that Sister Wei Shuang was the daughter of A Bu Nai, the leader of the internal management. There was only one brother in the family, and the relationship was very strong.

The family was also reluctant to have her come, but it was still the same as Wu Ya's family.

In other words, this is the case for every beautiful girl in a coat who enters the palace, but anyone who does not want to enter the palace, or who has a high position in the family, has already stuffed money into the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and few are selected.

Their family is just a gamble mentality: what if?What if my daughter is so lucky and is favored by the emperor, so she flies up the branch and turns into a phoenix?The power and wealth that can only be accumulated in two or three generations can be obtained by only one daughter.

What I paid was nothing more than the marriage of a daughter.

No matter how you look at it, it's not a loss.

Men can still obtain fame and fame, become officials and businessmen, and come to do something for the family.But isn't the only way for women to marry?

Naturally, it is not as thorough as everyone may think.

If you really ask these girls, they are naturally willing to contribute to the family.

The family has raised them for a long time, but they just want them to do something and enter the palace, nothing more.

Wanliuha Niuniu heard Wei Shuang's words, and she, who was always lively and bright, couldn't quite laugh.

She sighed: "You are lucky, but I can't."

She walked away and sat down in a low mood, with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking, and she didn't even make the usual phone calls.

Sister Wei Shuang was at a loss: "Did I say something wrong?"

Dai Jiayue was also not very interested: "It's nothing, don't think too much about it."

Umalu came over and grabbed her: "Okay, don't think about that, they naturally have their own thoughts, you can't let them look at you all the time."

Seeing that Sister Wei Shuang was about to cry because of his own words, Umalu hurriedly said: "My good sister, don't cry anymore, teach me what you have learned recently."

She pulled Sister Wei Shuang to sit down: "Because of this illness, I have been delayed a lot, so I must keep up with you."

Sister Wei Shuang nodded obediently, and told her what she had learned in the past two days.

It turns out that those who have just entered the palace have to learn Chinese characters for an hour a day, and they also need to learn how to do netting and embroidery.In addition, I also learned a little etiquette.

Sister Wei Shuang said: "According to the rules of our ancestors, court ladies are not allowed to read. But my aunt said that we, the beautiful women in coats who go to the Three Banners, may one day be favored by the Long Live God, so we can read a few words." ,it is also fine."

Umalu nodded, his eyebrows lowered, and his delicate and beautiful face was calm and calm.

Sister Wei was distracted, she always felt that Ma Lu was not like them, like... like... She couldn't describe it, but she knew that Ma Lu was a good person, and that was enough.

Umalu looked at her with a smile: "You should remember, teach me."

Sister Wei Shuang obediently nodded to teach her.

Umalu lay in bed for three days due to illness. Although he was not fully recovered, he was more than half recovered.

When my aunt saw her convalescing, she didn't forget to study with the people in the same room. She was very satisfied and didn't say anything serious to her, just let her continue to learn the rules.

After the first day of study, my aunt left her for the last, looked at her a few times, nodded and said, "If you don't understand something, you can ask me."

She saluted: "Thank you, aunt."

Aunt let her go.

This day-to-day study is not easy, except for what Sister Wei Shuang told her, they usually have to learn all kinds of rules and etiquette, walking, sitting, lying, and everything.

How to say what to say, how to say the way, what degree of words and deeds should conform to, everything is regulated, there can be no more, no less, everyone seems to be made out of the same mold.

Umalu sometimes feels that she is bound in a shell called rules, and she cannot do things that are not in line with these rules.

Sometimes, someone's behavior is not up to standard, and my aunt repeatedly taught it to no avail, so I can always see a few people being beaten, either on the palms or on the legs.It is not strict, usually three boards.

Although the legs could not be seen, red marks would soon appear on the hands of those who were beaten, which showed the ruthlessness of the attack, but no one dared to beg for mercy.I can only bow my head obediently.

The aunt said: "I don't expect you to have any success in the future, I just hope that you will never make mistakes and implicate me in the future."

"Yes." The eight people responded in unison.

Such scenarios are always common.

My aunt doesn't punish people very often, and even if she punishes people, she doesn't always beat them. More often, she just punishes people to kneel in a corner or stand all the time.

All eight of them have been punished more or less, and Umalu has also been punished.

After all, she is not a child. When learning the rules and etiquette, she is very good at learning, and her every move is in line with the standard.

It's just that she always likes the mean, she doesn't stand out, and she won't be punished.It was too peaceful and stable.

Literacy is fairly easy—traditional Chinese, Manchu, and Mongolian are indeed a bit of a struggle to learn.

　The thoughts of the people in the text do not represent the author

　　The court ladies in the Qing Dynasty were divided into beautiful ladies and court ladies. They were all bannermen. Most of the beautiful ladies were born in the noble children of the Upper Eight Banners and the wrapped women in the Upper Three Banners. Some of them were finally favored by the emperor as concubines, or betrothed to princes and nobles. At worst, she will become a female official in the palace.And the maids are all ordinary bannermen of the Eight Banners or the women of the lower five banners. Most of the court ladies are engaged in rough work in the palace for people to drive and enslave.
　　On Baidu, in 1677, the 16th year of Kangxi, court ladies could leave the palace at the age of 30, and during the Yongzheng period, only 25 could leave the palace

　　Before that, the palace people could only die in the palace, so there is a saying that "the white-headed palace maid laughs and talks about Xuanzong"

　　At this time, Umalu and others are indeed not allowed to leave the palace.
