Chapter 20: Mama Xu

Although Erfu was reluctant in her heart, the next day when Baguio came to call out, she rolled hard, got up, half-closed her eyes, and walked into the clean room behind the silk screen.

After a simple wash, Erfu sat in front of the dressing table, watched Su Yu skillfully fiddle with the long hair on her head, sighed helplessly, and said, "Baguio, can you help me?"

Baguio hurriedly bowed, walked up to the front with a smile, and quickly gave Erfu a second handful, and a few beaded flowers on the hairpin, making Erfu open his mouth exaggeratedly.

"It's so easy for you to do it, why can't I learn it!" Erph said with a complaining face, stroking the plain silver inlaid five treasures and silver filigree tassels on his sideburns, and said in a complaining tone.

Su Yu covered her lips and smiled very ladylikely, and put hair accessories on her head without saying anything.

Although Erfu is still a show girl to be selected, her identity is much more noble than Baguio, so she naturally didn't dare to make fun of her, so she could only smile faintly, bow over, and stand by the door as a vase.

Seeing that Erfu was still in a daze, Su Yu coughed lightly twice, and said softly: "Sister Erfu, it's not too early, let's get ready early, don't let Baguio be embarrassed!"

"Oh oh oh, yes, yes, I almost forgot about it, I'm really confused!"

Erfu looked at the anxious look that faintly flashed in Baguio's eyes, and then looked at the middle coat on his body, patted his head apologetically, and busily took out a large-sleeved cheongsam embroidered with blue blue lotus in water and blue colors, and quickly put it on his body, and chose a pair of embroidered flower pot-bottom shoes of the same color, and sat neatly on the embroidery pier on the side.

"The two little masters, please wait a while, the slave maid will go outside to take a look first, if Mama Xu has passed the word, the slave maid will come and invite you again!" Baguio breathed a sigh of relief, bowed, and said softly.

Su Yu smiled and nodded, slightly sipping the overnight herbal tea in the beam pot, but Erfu was powerless to support her cheeks with her hands, and the whole person collapsed on the round table, pouting a small mouth with a little lipstick, and the upper eyelids and lower eyelids were even more attached to each other.

Just as Erph was half-asleep, Baguio walked into the room again.

Erfu rubbed her little face vigorously, cheered up her spirits, and followed Suyu out of the door.

At this time, the genius outside had just shone brightly, the sun was still hidden below the horizon, and a red cloud loomed in the sky, and Erph lamented in her heart: this is the real one who gets up earlier than the chicken and sleeps less than the dog!

In front of the main hall of Chuxiu Palace, a middle-aged woman in high spirits was wearing a dark brown cheongsam, stepping on a pair of thick-soled embroidered shoes, and standing stiffly on the white marble steps with her back straight.

The show girls have also walked out of the various palace rooms with the palace maids of Chuxiu Palace, including some women who yawn and close their eyes like Erfu.

In the early morning, the cool breeze swept by, and Erfu finally escaped from Mr. Zhou Gong's call, opened a pair of slightly bloodshot eyes, and looked at the grandmother in front of her very curiously.

After waiting for a while, the grandmother standing in front of Erfu cleared her throat and said slowly: "The slave is responsible for teaching the etiquette in the palace of the little masters, and the slave and maid have seen all the little masters!"

"XX has seen Mama!" Many show girls saw a wisp of dark red tassel hanging from the sideburns of the mama in front of them, and they were not dressed like ordinary palace maids.

Mama Xu showed an imperceptible smile on her face, and continued to say the opening remarks, until the sun on the horizon crossed the ground level, and then ordered the palace maids to lead the show girls into the main hall.

The main hall is arranged to look like a classroom, but unlike modern classrooms, there are no desks, but square tables, behind which are embroidered piers, and there are some pen, ink, paper, inkstone and other objects on the table.

According to the rules of the palace, the show girls who enter the palace must be able to speak Manchu and a small amount of Mongolian, so the show girls must not only learn the etiquette of the palace, but also learn the Manchu and Mongolian languages commonly used in daily life.

If it is common sense that a woman like Erfu, who was born from the Manchu old surname Guerjia, can speak Manchu and Mongolian, and usually communicates in Manchu at home, but Erfu is an impostor, and for those Manchu who bend and hook, it is not only that she can't speak, but she can't understand it.

It's also a shame that Kangxi always says that the Manchu and Han families are all in the palace now, and now most of the palace speaks Chinese, otherwise Erfu will definitely be the first heroine to be played to death in the Qing Palace because of the language barrier.

And the language talent of our heroine Guargalfu is really bad.

In this Manchu class, seeing that Erfu, who was born in a serious Manchu family, was much worse than those Han Army flag girls who had lived in Jiangnan since childhood, Mama Xu couldn't help but shake her head.

Coupled with Erf's mentality of going through the motions, since we can't learn it, let's just look at the principle of hilariousness, Erf completely started the desertion of people's writing and her painting.

If Erff can really splash ink at will like those ink paintings, it will be a masterpiece.

Erff's talent for painting since he was a child is basically zero, and under the influence of exam-oriented education, Erf's product can also draw simple things like stick figures and brushes.

Abandoning himself, rotten wood cannot be carved into a label poked on Erf's body.

On the first day of learning the rules, Erfu was classified into a pile of embroidered pillows in the eyes of Mama Xu and several female teachers.

It's also a shame that these female gentlemen who teach are not teachers from Shang Shufang, otherwise they would definitely teach this student who doesn't work hard.

A full life always makes time slip away unconsciously, and Erf, who is addicted to self-entertainment, is so smooth that it is time for dinner.

On the main hall of Chuxiu Palace, the palace maids gave all the show girls a simple dinner of two dishes and one soup, two pasta, and a bowl of japonica rice.

A "snap" sound attracted the attention of many show girls to Erfu's body, although Erfu was a little shy, but in order to understand Mama Xu's sudden lesson, she still resolutely raised her eyes.

Mama Xu looked at Erfu's stupid eyes, only to feel that the anger in her heart was stagnant, and said in a deep voice: "All the little masters want to enrich the inner courtyard of the queen, the palace and the clan, this is how to maintain etiquette at the dinner table is also the most important."

Today, let's practice how to eat!"
