Because Gu Shaoyong was very busy with work, and Zhou Huiyu had been living in a sanatorium for the past few years, she was essentially out of touch with the upper class of China and rarely attended gatherings. Therefore, Yun Duo's life in Beijing was actually... quite boring.
It's just going to school—and then being mocked by a group of girls led by Gu Pingting—and then she retaliates.
She was isolated after being criticized too much.
Almost none of the students at the Royal Girls' Elementary School paid any attention to her.
Of course, no one would mess with her—
Because—'this country bumpkin' is too strong, and all of them together can't beat her.
Ever since Yunduo and Xiao Jiu became bound together, her strength has been increasing. Now, her strength is almost the same as that of an adult man, making it incredibly easy for her to take on a group of little girls.
More importantly, this 'country girl's' parents are fiercely protective of her. Furthermore, her father is incredibly influential with His Majesty the King. Although the King's power has been significantly diminished by the Co-Government Council, he is still the most powerful figure. Besides, few people would be willing to cross paths with Gu Shaoyong, a favorite of His Majesty the King and possessing numerous influential friends internationally, over such a trivial matter.
Therefore, even if their own daughters come home crying after being teased, they will mostly give them a serious lecture, telling them to stay away from that country girl from the Gu family and not to argue with her, lest they lose face.
This led to everyone eventually keeping their distance from the clouds – if you can't afford to offend them, can't you at least avoid them?
Moreover, isolation is actually a very severe punishment for children.
They had used this method to deal with many people they didn't like, and the final result was almost always the same: either that person became subservient and turned into their follower, or they transferred schools or even dropped out.
However, Yunduo is not an ordinary child.
After all, there's an adult living inside, and he's naturally impatient to hang out with a bunch of ignorant yet arrogant little girls.
She calls herself a noble lady, but she's not as interesting as her classmates in Chang Le Town!
Therefore, Yun Duo was actually quite happy about being isolated by her new classmates.
After all, it was the Royal Girls' Academy. Even though it was only a primary school, its curriculum was different from that of Chang Le Town, and even different from the schools she had attended for the previous ten years.
Besides basic academic courses, this school offers a wide variety of extracurricular activities and etiquette classes.
Talent classes are fine, but they can broaden one's horizons and improve one's artistic cultivation (although they are all basic content, the teachers at this school are very capable and are all elites).
But Yun Duo found the etiquette class very...uncomfortable.
Because the content of this etiquette class was something that Yun Duo simply couldn't accept.
Although this country is nominally pushing forward with "new policies" and "gender equality," the so-called etiquette taught at the Royal Girls' Elementary School—or rather, the top-tier aristocratic girls' elementary school—is largely based on outdated, patriarchal practices. This directly contradicts Yun Duo's values, making it completely unacceptable to her, let alone something she could adapt to.
