Ni Yueshuang spoke in a soft and gentle voice and behaved in an elegant and graceful manner, which was pleasing no matter how you looked at her.
Her eyes were a little red, but she did not mention the humiliation she had just suffered.
Aunt Bai said, "You are thoughtful."
Ni Yueshuang put the medicine down, but the maid standing beside her exclaimed, "Second Miss, what happened to your hand?"
Ni Yueshuang quickly retracted her hand, "It's okay."
Nanny Bai reached out and grabbed Ni Yueshuang's hand.
Ni Yueshuang's palms were red and there were even blisters on them.
"What's going on here? Why is a woman's hand so important?"
Ni Yueshuang bit her lip and responded: "Yueshuang is fine, I just got burned accidentally."
"Did your eldest sister do it?"
She took the initiative to show her goodwill to Ni Yueshan, but was insulted instead and forced to kneel down. Now her palms are even burned!
Ni Yueshuang shook her head: "No, Mammy, it was my own carelessness..."
"You, ah, have such a good temper! Don't worry, I'll teach your eldest sister some manners after she's been with her for two or three days! I'll make her control her bad temper!"
Thanks to the high-quality medicine Ni Yueshan applied, his body recovered extremely quickly. After about two or three days, he no longer felt any pain at the wound except for some itching.
But Ren Mei was more seriously injured than her and had to lie down every day to recuperate. Ming Yan was in a coma and was hanging on to her last breath.
Ni Yueshan thought of the hairpin and felt that Tian You got it for free.
When she learned that she could get out of bed, Nanny Bai was not idle and asked her to go over and learn her first lesson.
Ni Yueshan did not resist and went forward obediently.
"Meet Mammy."
Ni Yueshan bowed, no longer as arrogant as when they first met.
Nanny Bai sat upright in the main seat, her expression stern as she looked at her, Ni Yueshan, with a serious gaze, and remained in the gesture of greeting.
Nanny Bai looked at Ni Yueshuang standing beside her and said, "Go over and correct your elder sister's saluting posture!"
Ni Yueshuang bit her lip: "Mammy, Yueshuang dare not..."
"You are all here to ask me about etiquette. Naturally, we should learn from each other and correct each other! Go!"
"Yes." Ni Yueshuang then walked towards Ni Yueshan: "Sister, you need to stand a little straighter, put your hands a little lower, and then bend your body..."
Nanny Bai looked at Ni Yueshan's current figure with satisfaction.
"Keep this posture well and don't move. Remember how to salute correctly!"
Ni Yueshan didn't get angry. She just smiled and said, "Okay, Aunt Bai, I haven't seen the model in person, so it's hard to form an impression in my mind. Why don't you let Second Sister stand across from me and make one for me to see, so that I can have a deeper impression?"
Ni Yueshuang was stunned for a moment and looked at Nanny Bai. Nanny Bai said sternly, "If you can't teach me by hand, and you insist on watching others do it, aren't you too stupid?"
"Madame Bai, I don't want to either, but I'm just naturally dull!" Ni Yueshan responded calmly. Being called dumb? Then just be dumb...
"You..." Nanny Bai quickly suppressed her anger: "Okay, Yueshuang will show her!"
Just when Ni Yueshuang stopped, Ni Yueshan smiled and said, "I understand, Mammy, I will come over outside and show you how to do it again. I promise that my posture will be exactly the same as yours. Second sister, don't move!"
With that, Ni Yueshan walked out, not intending at all that Nanny Bai would agree to let her leave.
Nanny Bai wanted to speak out to stop him from behind, but Ni Yueshan ran away so quickly that she disappeared.
Nanny Bai was so angry that she sat in her seat without moving, and Ni Yueshuang had no choice but to maintain the posture of bowing.
But there was an incense burner burning in front of Nanny Bai, and the smoke from the burner was wafting out, making Nanny Bai gradually feel sleepy.
She covered her mouth with her hands and yawned, trying not to make any sound.
But my eyelids started twitching uncontrollably...
Ni Yueshuang kept bowing in anger, and waited for a long time but Ni Yueshan didn't come in.
She was suspicious and wanted to go and take a look, but Aunt Bai was standing right behind her, so she held back and didn't move.
Outside, Ni Yueshan left the prime minister's residence through the back door.
She hated being restricted the most. Shao Lecheng wanted to take her somewhere, and she would definitely go. So, disrupting her plans just to learn some restrictive etiquette? Delusion!
After getting on the carriage, Ni Yueshan leaned against the wall comfortably and asked, "Where are you taking me?"
The one driving the carriage was Shao Lecheng. He was wearing a straw hat that half covered his face, and he was dressed in a coarse linen shirt, lacking his usual dandy temperament.
"Aren't you curious why I want to buy bad reputation?"
"Yes, I'm curious. Now take me to see the reason?"
"About the same."
Shao Lecheng was driving the horse outside, and Ni Yueshan was lying comfortably in the carriage. There was fruit beside her. Ni Yueshan was eating and shaking her legs.
However, the place Shao Lecheng took her to was a bit far away. They walked for half an hour but still hadn't reached their destination, and the area was becoming increasingly remote.
Ni Yueshan lifted the carriage curtain and said, "I think I've been on this road before!"
"Of course you have!" Shao Lecheng said with great confidence.
Ni Yueshan squatted next to Shao Lecheng: "You don't want to sell me, do you? I'm not worth much."
Shao Lecheng chuckled: "Don't worry, I can't bear to sell you!"
Ni Yueshan thought that he would take her to a den of thieves, a mountain stronghold, a slum or some other place.
But when she saw the place appearing before her, she was stunned.
"temple......"
Shao Lecheng had saved her in this temple before.
"Well, let's go up!"
Although there were many steps and it was tiring to climb, Ni Yueshan finally gritted his teeth and followed up without asking any questions.
Shao Lecheng was familiar with the route, and he took her not to the main hall, but to a quiet path that led to the backyard of the temple, and even passed by the bamboo forest.
Ni Yueshan folded his arms across his chest and followed silently.
Shao Lecheng then began to explain: "A place like a temple is hard to sustain if the number of pilgrims decreases. As for me, if I give dirty money for no reason, the abbot of the temple may not accept it, so I built a shelter behind the temple, and it's full of children!"
His smile was like the warm sun, like spring water, like the gentle breeze, very warm, which surprised Ni Yueshan.
"What does this have to do with wanting a bad reputation?"
"I have a bad reputation, so naturally I need to atone for my sins. I come here once a month to listen to the chanting and confess my sins!"
Ni Yueshan sighed and looked at Shao Lecheng, "Even if you don't have a bad reputation, you can still come to listen to the chanting!"
"Oh, you don't understand. As long as my six senses are not pure and I have done all the bad things, I am full of sins and I cannot be a monk!"
"......Who forced you to become a monk?" Ni Yueshan looked at Shao Lecheng suspiciously.
Shao Lecheng sighed: "Of course someone forced me to do this. They said that I could only save my life if I became a monk and didn't care about worldly affairs. I don't believe that. I won't become a monk!"
Then he walked into a small courtyard, which was full of children playing and fighting, which made Ni Yueshan's eyes widen.
Is this an orphanage...?
