"By the way, Mei'er, when you pledged your loyalty to me back then, I didn't give you the response you deserved, did I?" Inside the room, Bai Yueyue recalled that when she first arrived at the manor, she had an emotional breakdown due to her anxiety about the unfamiliar environment and her longing for Xiao Ya. It was Hu Mei'er who brought her back to her senses by pledging her loyalty.
“However, Miss has already responded to me with your actions,” Hu Meier said, using the more formal “Xianzhong” part. But at the time, Bai Yueyue was emotionally devastated, so Hu Meier chose this method to tell Bai Yueyue that she would always be there for her, in order to comfort her.
“Mei’er, as my first personal attendant, I haven’t given you the response you deserved. I’ve been so negligent.” Bai Yueyue stood up and extended her hand.
Seeing this, Hu Meier knelt down on one knee again, making a gesture of loyalty: "Miss, the servant should extend his hand first."
"But I want to be the best master in Mei'er's heart, so Mei'er, please believe that I will become a good master." Bai Yueyue placed her hand on Hu Mei'er's hand, making this declaration of loyalty in a way that Lin Xinyi, who was standing to the side, could hardly believe.
Honestly, what Miss is doing is completely against etiquette. How can a master swear an oath to a servant first? But... that's precisely why I, Mei'er, like my Miss so much.
Cui Yexian's witness was Liu Sixian, Lin Xinyi's witness was Zhao Shuli, and for Hu Meier, her witness was the master she wanted to dedicate her life to.
"Young Miss, please allow Hu Meier to become your personal attendant and offer you my utmost loyalty..."
After completing the previous ritual of offering sacrifices, Bai Yueyue finally finished bathing and washing up with the help of Hu Meier and Lin Xinyi. Since Lin Xinyi was only now officially serving Bai Yueyue, she was still a bit unfamiliar with many things and needed Hu Meier's guidance.
For Bai Yueyue, this was a test. Although she was used to Hu Meier's service, now there was Lin Xinyi as well. Moreover, Lin Xinyi was her former classmate, which made her feel embarrassed and strange.
However, after so many days of adjustment, Bai Yueyue's ability to withstand pressure and shame has improved considerably, and at least she no longer readily shows her shyness.
"Mei'er, please tell Cui Ye that because I need to prepare to welcome my two older brothers tomorrow, he will be the one to go to the meeting with Dean Jiang." Bai Yueyue said after lying on the bed. Although Bai Shenxing and Bai Ruo were not expected to return until tomorrow afternoon, Bai Yueyue was very worried about them and concerned that their return would cause her trouble.
"Yes, Miss."
Lin Xinyi then turned off the light, and the two of them stepped back to the door and said in unison, "Good night, Miss, have a wonderful night."
When Bai Yueyue first saw Hu Meier, she thought she was beautiful. Now, thanks to Zhao Shuli's care, Lin Xinyi has transformed from being thin and bony to having a well-proportioned figure, and her original delicate features have been revealed again.
Even Bai Yueyue felt great when the two of them spoke in unison.
You've fallen! You've fallen, Bai Yueyue, how could you fall so low? Sigh, just go to sleep with remorse~ Hehe.
The next morning, as soon as he opened his eyes, he skillfully forgot to use the bell. Just as he was about to get up and stretch, Hu Meier's voice came from the doorway.
"Miss, please allow Lin Xinyi and me to enter your room." Hu Meier also gave up on making Bai Yueyue remember that the first thing to do upon waking up was to use the bell.
"I grant you permission." The familiar dialogue had changed, and Bai Yueyue almost couldn't adjust to it.
I almost forgot, Ruby Lin will be officially serving me starting last night.
The door opened, and the two of them, as if they had rehearsed, helped Bai Yueyue wash up, change clothes, and get ready.
"Mei'er, I remember you were stuck on the third floor because I didn't have enough personal attendants, right?" Bai Yueyue asked as Hu Mei'er taught Lin Xinyi how to style Bai Yueyue's hair. "Now that Lin Xinyi is back at work, you should be able to relax a bit, right?"
After all, Hu Meier always got up earlier than her every morning, and Bai Yueyue really wanted to think about her.
“Miss, even if Lin Xinyi returns to work, you still won’t have enough personal attendants,” Hu Meier said. “Because Cui Ye is a man, he’s not allowed to go up to the third floor, but you usually need two people to serve you. So until you find a third person, Lin Xinyi and I will be serving you.”
Well, compared to Di Hao and Qin Ye, I have very few personal attendants.
Because Li Jieyue always had at least two personal attendants by her side, Bai Yueyue quickly understood Hu Meier's explanation.
However, I don't have any female personal attendants I want to take in recently, so I'll have to trouble Mei'er and Xin Yi.
After getting ready, and having breakfast with Li Jieyue, Li Jieyue decided to use the time until Bai Shenxing and the other person arrived to teach Bai Yueyue a lesson, since the meeting with Dean Jiang had been handed over to Cui Ye.
Because it was during the two's return, Li Jieyue did something different this time: she chose to teach Bai Yueyue how to hold tea parties and various banquets.
The reason is simple: it's an event for Bai Shenxing and Bai Ruo, so Bai Yueyue doesn't need to worry about messing it up.
"Yueyue, you first need to decide on the number of people. From the host to the guests, you also need to include the personal attendants of both sides, as well as ordinary attendants, and decide on the size of the venue."
This time, Li Jieyue demonstrated, and Bai Yueyue learned and practiced a small portion of the exercises. Of course, Bai Yueyue was well aware that starting next week, her assessment would include another item.
Regarding attire, whether it's a informal banquet like a tea party or an extremely formal event like a coming-of-age ceremony, there are specific requirements for the clothing of the host, guests, and even personal attendants.
For example, guests should not be too flamboyant, hosts should not be too understated, and personal attendants should wear the same type of clothing as the host, but in a "supporting" style.
More importantly, at banquets like tea parties, Bai Yueyue, as the host, needs to prepare the main pastries or other food, but as a guest, she also needs to prepare a small portion of the food.
For a coming-of-age ceremony banquet, Bai Yueyue, as the hostess, was responsible for preparing all the food.
So tired! Half a day was almost too much for Bai Yueyue, just preparing for the welcoming party for her two older brothers. She was grateful that she wasn't allowed to participate in the preparations for the welcoming party for Qin Limin because Qin Zijing and the others didn't like her.
Bai Yueyue also vowed that she would never hold any tea parties or other messy banquets; she simply couldn't stick to that.
This is exhausting.
Although Li Jieyue was in charge of organizing this banquet, and Bai Yueyue was responsible for learning and a small part of the content, if Bai Shenxing and Bai Ruo's performance did not satisfy her, then she would have to apologize.
Dear brothers, if you show any signs that make me unhappy, I will definitely make you experience my entire course!
