Jiang Shiwei endured the pain in his back and tried hard to adjust his posture, but after a while he returned to his original position.
Seeing this, Nanny Li sighed helplessly, "Second Miss, if you continue to be so careless, you will be letting down the Empress's painstaking efforts."
Jiang Shiwei felt so wronged that tears welled up in her eyes: "Mammy, these rules are so many and difficult, I really can't remember them all."
Nanny Li said sternly, "No one is born with these skills. You have to learn them diligently. Starting tomorrow, you must get up at the hour of dawn every day, practice etiquette for half an hour, then have breakfast, and then learn poetry, zither music, and so on."
Jiang Shiwei almost burst into tears when she heard this: "Mammy, there are so many things to do, how can I handle it all?"
Nanny Li remained unmoved: "These are the basics. You are going to participate in the talent show, so you must learn them well."
Jiang Zhixu rolled her eyes. In her previous life, when she was a concubine, there weren't so many rules. It was obvious that the Queen wanted to make things difficult for her.
It was the Emperor who broke off the engagement, and it was also the Emperor who asked her to participate in the selection. So why was the Empress taking her anger out on her? It was totally unreasonable.
In the wing room in the front yard, Xia Heng was reading the "Thirty-Six Strategies" given by Jin Linlin, and Xia Ning walked into her brother's room holding a few sets of clothes.
"Brother, I made a few sets of clothes for you to change into." Xia Ning walked into the room briskly, holding a few neatly folded clothes in his hands, with an excited smile on his face.
Xia Heng was sitting leisurely by the window, holding a cup of hot tea and savoring it slowly. He heard his sister's voice, turned his head slightly, and replied with a smile:
"Um, okay, leave it over there. How have you been?"
Xia Ning put the clothes on the table beside her, then walked to Xia Heng, sat down lightly, played with her hair hanging on her chest with both hands, and replied:
"It's fine. I'm helping my wife manage her papermaking workshop now."
Xia Heng put down the book in his hand, looked at his sister intently, and asked with concern: "
How does the lady treat you? If she treats you badly or makes you feel wronged, you must tell me and I will find a way to get you back.
Xia Ning quickly shook his head and said with a smile:
"Brother, don't worry about me. Madam is very kind to me. Aunt Cai also taught me a lot of business methods. I feel like I have learned a lot.
"The Madam is very kind to us servants. Madam Cai said that she is getting old, so she will gradually hand over all the foreign business matters to me. I am living a fulfilling life every day now, and Brother Jialiu has taught me many useful things."
Xia Heng listened quietly to his sister's narration of her daily life, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. He felt extremely relieved when he saw his sister's energetic and confident appearance.
Yes, they were indeed lucky to have found such a good boss. The male owner, Jiang Zhixu, not only did not treat him as a servant, but he always respected him and gave him the same treatment as other staff members.
The hostess is even more amiable and treats the servants with generosity and kindness, making them feel the warmth of home here.
