Ding Tian's Ancient Life

Both of them love to eat hazelnuts, but they only like to eat hazelnuts from the Northeast. They are big and can be pulled open. The hazelnuts are delicious when chewed.

He didn't even look at Miss Gao San.

Mrs. Jin Ma wanted to smile in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face: "The person here is the third lady of the Gao family, right? Please sit down."

As soon as Mrs. Jin Ma raised her hand, a servant girl would naturally serve tea, and the place where Miss Gao San was arranged to sit was at the coffee table on the lower right.

"The third daughter of the high family, I have met Mrs. Jin." Miss Gao San saluted with blessings.

"Gao's family? Uncle Cheng's mansion?" Jin Ma's smile was polite and alienated: "Didn't the family ask Miss Gao San for advice?

"

Miss Gao San laughed: "Yes, of course."

Whether it is a high school in central Beijing or a big family in other provinces, if they have girls at home, if they want the girls to be well-educated, in addition to the education of their own female family members, they must also hire some famous and skilled tutors. Mammy.

Ordinary foster nuns are nuns who came out of the palace. These are not palace maids. The palace maids are "released" at the age of 25. They add two bolts of silk to sympathetic silver, which is regarded as the dowry given by the palace.

As for nuns, they are generally elderly women. They are also of high rank in the palace, and their jobs are more noble than those of the court ladies, teaching rules and etiquette, and taking care of the women in the daily life of the master.

There were not many grades of female officials in the ancient harem, and most of them were court ladies without grades.But anyone with a level is not an ordinary person.

The most senior one is the third-rank nun in charge, who manages all important affairs in the palace, is responsible for distributing salaries, assigning maids, etc., so it can be said that she has great power.

The next one is Yuqian Shangyi from the third rank, who is the emperor's personal maid.

There are more etiquette emcees of the fourth rank, and they take care of a lot. On weekdays, they teach the etiquette of the lords and maids below the seventh rank. The rank can be taken out with you, and the sympathy money given by the palace is much more than that of the palace ladies, and all the rewards received over the years can also be taken out of the palace.

The lowest is also from the fourth-rank Fengyi female officials, who are the personal maids of the empress dowager, dowager, empress or prince concubine.

The imperial concubine can have such a female official, but there is no such thing as a noble concubine. She can only have a close-fitting maid, who is called a "big palace daughter", which is equivalent to the big maid next to the head wife of a high-ranking family.

Such old nuns are very sought after when they come out of the palace. They have been in the palace all their lives, why haven't they seen it?Especially in terms of etiquette, it is really outstanding.

So ordinary people would hire such a nanny to teach their daughters how to handle people and things, and how to behave well...

"The nurturing mother is probably not very good." Mrs. Jin Ma curled her lips, and her contempt could not have been more obvious: "Otherwise, you wouldn't raise the third lady in this way, or is it that all the young ladies of the Gao family are so impolite?"

"Why doesn't Miss Ben know how to be polite?" Miss Gao San blushed, and her eyes also turned red.

This was said face-to-face as "ignorance of etiquette", which was a very serious accusation in ancient times.

And Miss Gao San is very concerned about this because she is a girl from a concubine, and she hates being said that she is not well-bred.

Yes, when I first asked the foster mother, the foster mother received a lot of "gifts".

There is a "salary silver" of 500 taels a year. The Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and New Year's Eve, the family will offer a good gift, and there will be two sets of clothes and four pairs of shoes in each season.

For every meal, there must be one meat, one vegetable, one soup, pastry and rice, but there must be wine on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year.

such.

She didn't know what was going on in the palace, but she knew that all the expenses for nurturing the nanny were paid by the aunt's private house, which was equivalent to the fact that the aunt hired the nunnery herself.

Therefore, the nurturing mother is only responsible for raising the eldest daughter and the second daughter from the concubine, and for a concubine daughter like her, even the maid who the nurturing mother brought to the mansion to serve her looks down on her. In the courtyard, the two servant girls ran out to mock her bitterly and chased her away.

It was still Aunt Liu, the birth mother, who was humble in front of the master, and moved the master with years of friendship, so the master opened the mouth, and later gave the nunnery two big gold bracelets and a gold collar, in exchange for the nun Mammy's smiling face.

It's just that the nurturing nun still focuses on nurturing the eldest lady and the second young lady, but she is allowed to attend. She has inquired about it. This nurturing nun is a fourth-rank emcee of etiquette in the palace and has stayed in the palace for 30 years.

The most important thing is that the etiquette is in place, and he is good at various means.

What she has always been proud of is her own upbringing, and she received the teachings of the nuns together with the two daughters who were born on the same day.

Now that Mrs. Jin Ma said that, she of course wanted to refute, and she refuted very loudly: "This lady's mother-in-law is the fourth-rank master of ceremonies who came out of the palace, Mother Qiao!"

"Then she didn't tell you that Mrs. Ben is the An Ren appointed by the imperial court. You have to greet Ben An, say hello to Ben An, and pay respects to him..." Mrs. Jin Ma looked at Miss Gao San with disdainful eyes: "And What kind of gift did you give Ben'an people?"

Women who have canonization in the court have a very strict set of etiquette standards.

Mrs. Jin Ma wants to ask Miss Gao San to pay respects to her. She has done her homework and knows that although the Gao family still hangs on to Mrs. Chengyi's House, the higher-ups are probably looking at Mrs. Chengyi's face. Once the old man dies, the Chengyi House will I'm afraid I can't even keep that plaque.

live.

As for the current head of the Gao family, who is Miss Gao San's biological father, his title is the same as her husband's, and she is a sixth-rank Anren.

Not to mention a third-year-old lady from a concubine, even the eldest lady from their family's descendants, they have to salute her when they see her.

Even if it's her aunt, what she needs to do is to meet her peers.

And what kind of etiquette did Miss Senior Three perform just now?

Jin Mashi just wants her to be a little self-aware and stop thinking about their master.

"Little girl... little girl..." Miss Gao San's face turned pale, and she bit her red lips lightly with her white teeth: "My little girl was a little excited when she saw the savior, and she lost her manners."

As she said, she was really able to stretch and bend, and paid homage to the Ma family of Jin: "The three daughters of the Chengyi uncle's house, pay homage to the Ma family from Jin'an, and I only ask you to be safe."

"Okay, the three daughters of the Gao family, the house is safe, get up." The Jin Ma family's downfall is not insignificant.

There were so many people standing there, no one gave way, from the Jinjia couple to Ding Tian, ​​even their young master, nanny, etc., regardless of master and servant, they all received this kneeling ceremony together.

Miss Gao San couldn't hold her breath, and she couldn't swallow it. This time, she was going to give the other party a blow and threaten the other party, but she ended up being blown off.

His face was pale, fortunately he had applied a lot of rouge and powder, but...it couldn't be seen, but his actions were a little stiff.

After sitting down, Jin Jia stood up and stretched his waist: "Come on, go play a game of chess next to you?"

"Okay!" Ding Tian also stood up, and the two of them went to the next door to play chess without looking back.

In fact, they were playing animal chess, which Ding Tian is good at, and the two of them were not in the mood to play chess.

It's quiet.

As soon as the two of them left, Miss Gao San was embarrassed.

Originally, I wanted to stop Jin Buhuan, but there was Ding Tian beside him... Although Miss Gao San's original target was him, after the "man-made accident", Jin Jia was the only choice left for her.

But once you open your mouth, you are not self-respecting enough in front of outsiders.

Girls, no matter in ancient times or in modern times, all need self-respect and self-respect. This is true of good girls. I have never seen any girl who is willing to be lowly has good results.

So Miss Gao San could only watch the two of them leave, but she didn't dare to speak to persuade them to stay... What qualifications does she have to persuade them to stay?Miss Gao San couldn't bear the ostentation put on by Mrs. Jin Ma, especially in front of so many servants, it seemed that Miss Gao San was not facing the vulgar woman she thought she was facing, but an expensive wife like her aunt.

Drink tea and have snacks.

After eating and drinking, before Miss Gao San could speak, Mrs. Jin Ma had already brought tea to see off the guests.

Miss Gao San will never be kicked out of the house just because of this, she stood up and said, "I want to talk to An Ren about something personally..."

"Miss Gao San, I don't know you very well. I don't have anything personal to talk about. I don't want to talk too much about it." Jin Mashi will not give her a chance.

meeting.

Over there, the housekeeper yelled "see off" again.

No matter how thick-skinned Miss Gao San is, she has been called "see off" twice. According to reason, she should go too, but she can't!What should I do when I go back?

Her life is over.

"An Ren, Mrs. Jin Ma, you know the purpose of my coming. Who is your natal family? I am the daughter of the Chengyi House....

"Miss Gao San simply tore her face, smashed the jar, and said directly: "If it is possible, I don't want to do this, but

God's will tricks people, what can I do?Moreover, Mr. Jin has many advantages in marrying me. I have a family background and a dowry, and he also has a strong backer in Beijing... "

"Okay, okay, hehehe..." Mrs. Jin Ma didn't get angry, but laughed: "Miss Gao San, you don't need to say anything."

"I want to say, Mrs. Jin Ma, I know that you are now Jin Jia's wife, but you have to think about him. He has no foundation in Beijing, how can he climb up? Do he want to be a petty official forever?" Senior three The lady didn't know that Jin Buhuan was Yuanwailang of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Wang Zuo originally assigned him and Ding Tian this position so that they could be justified when they investigated the case.

So to the outside world, Jin Buhuan is an imperial doctor, attached to the imperial hospital, and from the official position of Qipin, he has a lot of people in Beijing.

What's more, Jin Buhuan didn't work in the Tai Hospital, he was in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

If he does well, he will be on duty in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice?

I have already entered the palace to serve the nobles.

Jin Mashi is not angry, but as if she saw something funny, the branches of laughter trembled wildly, and the people around her were also like this, as if watching a clown's amusing performance, all of them laughed so hard that they couldn't help themselves .

Miss Gao San looked at Jin Mashi: "What I said, do you understand?"

"Miss Gao San, you are still too young." Mrs. Jin Ma sat very steadily, without any sign of wavering, and told her calmly: "First of all, Uncle Chengyi's residence...is there still Uncle Chengyi now?"

"You!" Miss Gao San said anxiously, "I, Zeng Yi, are sincere uncles!"

"Then where is your great-grandfather now?" Jin Ma asked her, "I only heard about Madam Chengyi."

"I..." Miss Gao San choked, her eyes slightly blank.

"Your father, Juefeng Yunqiwei, is the fifth rank, and your aunt is also the imperial ann." Jin Ma said slowly: "Only Mrs. Uncle is the imperial wife of Chaopin. And my family, my Husband, Jinjia, gold does not change, is also Yunqiwei, the fifth rank, and I am also an imperial seal, what do you think our Jin family depends on you? Dowry?"

"I..." Miss Gao San is just a lady in the boudoir. She knows so many things and has such scheming, which is already very good. Thanks to her biological mother who is good at scheming.

It's just that, after all, the layout is a bit small, and the gate raised at home does not leave the second door, but they don't know that there is no such a number as Chengyi Bofu in Beijing.

She saw the luxury of the mansion and the bragging of her own people, which caused her perception of her own family to be seriously biased.

"It is said that when a high-ranking family in Beijing marries a daughter, the prostitute naturally has her mother's dowry and family members, as well as various additions. Concubine daughter... Hehehe... 3000 taels of silver can send one out." Kim Ma said There are three slender fingers with two rings, one is inlaid with a gemstone tourmaline, and the other is inlaid with a purple pearl.

Ding Tian and Jin Buhuan had been lying on the crack of the door to watch the fun, and when they saw the ring, Jin Buhuan gritted his teeth.
