Chapter 40 Injured Again
"Exactly, and the martial arts are not weak. If the subordinate's lightness kung fu is not taught by the master himself, otherwise, she will definitely be discovered."

Yuan Xi said softly: "In this way, this person's martial arts are not low."

Jingyi didn't say a word, because her father was a military commander, so it's not surprising that there are women who can learn martial arts in her family. In her mother's yard, there are a few nuns who have practiced martial arts, but after all, they only know a little bit, but they are stronger than ordinary people. , It's just a little bit better, how can it be a master like what Si Qin said!

Jingyi's head started to hurt a little, and it was obvious from the attitude of Nanny Peng towards Jingwei that her master was not the old lady and Mrs. Bai, but someone else. "Nurse Peng, master, it seems that the water in Hou Mansion is getting deeper and deeper."

Yuan Xi chuckled and said, "I told you a long time ago that the water in Hou Mansion is very deep, and it's very difficult to protect them by your own strength."

Jingyi naturally understood Yuanxi's meaning, she suddenly remembered the treasure of King An mentioned by Yuanxi's subordinates, could it be related to this?

Today is the first day Hong Nanny came to the mansion to teach. Early in the morning, Jingyi was pulled up by He Nanny. After washing and dressing up, she ate a few bites of food in a hurry, and then went to Dongkua courtyard. The report has arrived.

This Dongkua courtyard was originally a guest courtyard. Although the courtyard is not big, it is better than the location of the courtyard. When you leave the courtyard, you will find the back garden.The scenery here is naturally excellent, with small bridges and flowing water, surrounded by hundreds of flowers, many rockeries, and winding paths.In this garden, there are winter plums in winter, hibiscus in summer, orchids in spring, and crabapples in autumn.Moreover, Mrs. Gu also planted a lot of emerald bamboos in this guest courtyard, which not only adds more greenery, but also adds a lot of elegance.

As soon as Nanny Hong came, she fell in love with this courtyard.Mrs. Gu arranged for Madam Hong to have two servant girls, three meals a day, four dishes and one soup, two meat and two vegetables, all delivered to the yard by someone.

This Grandma Hong has also worked as a foster nun in many rich and noble families. The Gu family's arrangement is really good, even compared to the one in the Duke's Mansion, it is only better, not worse.

The first day of formal teaching.Nanny Hong held the ruler in her hand, and looked at the four children in front of her with a serious expression.The four are Jingyi, Jingwei, Jingmei, and Jingrou, born to Aunt Su of the third room, who is six years old this year, only one year younger than Jingmei.

Grandma Hong coughed lightly and said, "Today is the first day, ladies and gentlemen, let's learn boudoir etiquette first. There are rules for standing, sitting, and walking. For women, learn to stand up first. The law is to be pure and chaste. Purity makes the body clean, and chastity makes the body honorable. Don't turn your head when you walk, don't lift your lips when you speak, don't move your knees when you sit, don't shake your skirt when you stand, don't laugh when you are happy, and don't raise your voice when you are angry. What a well-bred woman should do. Today we will learn to stand up. Ladies, please get up."

After Madam Hong's voice fell, the four ladies got up and came to the center of the hall to stand still.

Nanny Hong circled around the four of them, nodding secretly. After all, she is a lady, and her usual upbringing is different.

Seeing the youngest Jingrou swaying slightly, Madam Hong immediately stepped forward and said, "Limo shake your skirt! Don't shake any more!"

As soon as the words fell, Jingmei covered her lips and smiled lightly.

Hong Nanny's face darkened, and she reprimanded: "As an older sister, she doesn't want to teach her younger sister, but she still takes pleasure in laughing at her younger sister. This is not what everyone does."

That Jingmei was reprimanded, her face turned red and white.In my heart, I cursed Nanny Hong secretly dozens of times.

The four of them stood for another half an hour, and the youngest, Jingrou, couldn't take it anymore, her body wobbled, and she sat down on the ground with a 'bang', and sobbed softly.That Jingmei couldn't stand it anymore, she simply turned around, walked to the stool, and sat down on her buttocks.

The girl next to her was quite frightened, and this was in front of the foster mother.The maid hurriedly persuaded: "Miss, get up quickly. Miss, otherwise, Mammy should lose her temper."

Unexpectedly, Jingmei just didn't move, she still patted her legs lightly with her hands and said: "How can there be such a reason? She is sitting there like an old woman, but she wants me to wait and stand here. Can't we be a monkey?"

Jingmei's words involved both Jingwei and Jingyi sisters.

The corners of Jingyi's mouth raised slightly, she remained calm and continued to stand.

But Nanny Hong just watched with cold eyes. The matters in the high-end mansion are beyond her control as a nunnery.

Jing Wei is originally the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion, although she is a concubine, she is always at ease in this backyard being pampered by the old lady and Mrs. Bai.Especially after Mrs. Gu fell ill, she was used to being arrogant and domineering in the mansion.After Bai's incident, her temperament softened a lot, but after all, her nature is hard to change.In addition, this cousin Jingmei is just a daughter of a commoner family, how can she compare to her noble status?Jingwei, who has always been proud and arrogant, couldn't stand it anymore, she turned to Jingmei and said, "What is this cousin talking about? What is monkey playing? Is this what Miss Boudoir should say?"

Jingmei glanced at her with disdain, and said sarcastically, "A concubine, she still treats herself as the daughter of the palace! What kind of background does she not take a mirror to see herself?"

Jingwei was so angry that her face turned red, she pointed at Jingmei and said: "You! You are a little girl from a commoner family, how dare you disrespect me? If you weren't in the light of our Houfu, what kind of thing do you think you are? How dare you say that about me? Do you really think this is your house? If it weren't for the mother looking at the old lady's face, do you think you can sit here and be taught by the mother?"

"You! How dare you scold me! I, I will fight you!" Jingmei was so angry that her hands trembled slightly and her face turned pale. She is the prostitute in the family, and her mother is domineering. When has she ever suffered such anger!He grabbed the things on the table with both hands and smashed them towards Jing slightly!

There was only a 'bang', followed by the screams of the crowd, and then a rush of hands and feet.

In the evening, the old man, Su Wei, Mrs. Gu, the old lady and the people from the third room all gathered in Jingyi's courtyard.

Jing Yi was lying flat on the bed with gauze wrapped around her forehead, and beside her was Imperial Physician Liu who was feeling her pulse.

Sitting on the edge of Jingyi's bed, Gu Shi kept wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.Su Wei sat on a stool beside the bed, looking at Jingyi lying on the bed with concern.

Both the old man and the old lady were sitting on red sandalwood chairs not far away, and the old lady kept turning the beads in her hands, and said in her mouth: "Amitabha, Bodhisattva bless you!"

The imperial doctor was about to take the silver needles for Jingyi acupuncture, when she saw her slowly open her eyes.The imperial physician was overjoyed and said, "Miss Su is awake? Is there any discomfort?"

What he said attracted everyone's attention.Jingyi looked at the imperial physician, then at her mother, and whispered, "Mother, was sister hurt by her cousin?"

Although Jingyi's voice was low, the room was so quiet that one could hear a needle drop.Her weak voice naturally fell into everyone's ears.
