Chapter 4 Follow Aunt Bai
Chapter 4 Following Aunt Bai
"Aunt Jiang, don't be angry with her. She is the only one in this big family who looks like a child." Mrs. Hou spoke from the top, smiling dotingly, and gestured for Zhang Anyi to sit next to her.
Zhang Anyi knew that she was late for turning the page, so she quickly ran over and sat down.
Aunt Jiang wanted to stop her, but she had no choice but to let Mrs. Hou spoil her.
When Mrs. Hou saw that everyone had arrived, she said: "One more thing, Mr. Hou has invited a very good dancer to teach you. He came out of the palace before. I will show you today. He looks familiar."
One, two, it’s to find an apprentice among the ladies and get his true inheritance.”
Aunt Bai heard what Mrs. Hou said and looked at Zhang Anchu, she had a bad feeling in her heart.
Among the distinguished nobles, which family's daughter can learn to dance?
If she wanted to learn, it would be nothing more than piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but dancing would not be on the stage. Aunt Bai didn't know Madam Hou's intentions. Madam Hou always knew the importance and would not let the Peking prince down. But today, it was uncharacteristic, and Mr. Hou went to invite him specially.
Yes, what exactly are you planning on doing?
She is also worried that Zhang Anchu will be like her second self in the future. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the eldest lady wants to enter the palace to accompany the princess, while the second lady is just fat and inappropriate, and the fourth lady Zhang Anpan is less than a year old.
Years ago, only her daughter Zhang Anchu was the most suitable.
The aunts in the room suddenly became quiet. Aunt Yun was the calmest. She picked up the tea and took a sip. She gave birth to an incompetent son. No matter what happened, she could not be blamed for this.
, glanced at Aunt Bai, and raised her fists nervously.
Looking at Zhang Anchu again, her small face makes people envious, but now she can no longer envy her. Being good-looking is not necessarily a benefit.
"Please teach Mr. Shen to come in." Mrs. Hou said when she saw that the room was as quiet as a chicken.
Shen Jiaoxi entered the room. He was in his thirties, elegant and generous: "Meet Mrs. Hou."
"Get up, Mr. Shen came out of the palace. Ordinary people can't find him even if they want to look for him. If Mr. Hou hadn't gotten the news and went to look for it in advance, he might have been snatched away by others." Mrs. Hou repeatedly raised Mr. Shen's knowledge.
At the same time, he deliberately said that the Marquis valued his identity, and naturally he also knew that the meritorious noble would not learn to dance, which would be unworthy of publicity.
However, for the sake of future layout, we still have to lose face.
Otherwise, there will be no meritorious nobles from now on, they will just be commoners.
Mrs. Hou glanced at Aunt Bai. She lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking. She said to Shen Jiaoxi: "Shen Jiaoxi, this is Zhang Anxian, the legitimate daughter of the Hou family. After the New Year, she will enter the palace to accompany the princess."
"She is worthy of being the legitimate daughter of the Hou family. She has always been graceful and graceful." Shen Jiaoxi looked up and praised her.
After hearing this, Mrs. Hou was happy in her heart, and continued to introduce with a smile on her face: "This is Zhang Anyi, the second lady of the Hou family. She should learn to dance. I heard that learning to dance can make you slim.
, she deserves to lose weight."
"Learning to dance? I don't want it, I might as well learn to make pastries!" Zhang Anyi curled her lips and said unhappily.
Aunt Jiang glared at Zhang Anyi, wanting her to be honest and not interrupt.
"Learning to dance is not unusual. You must love it. Since the second lady doesn't like it, let it go." Shen Jiaoxi lowered her head and said. She knew in her heart that what Mrs. Hou said just now was just a show in front of others. Before coming, Hou
Madam has already revealed to her that the most suitable person is the third young lady.
Aunt Jiang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. She knew about this, but she was just thinking that her daughter would not be selected. She knew how much her daughter weighed, but she was afraid that Teacher Shen would not follow common sense. .
Aunt Bai knew that she could no longer be a quail. She raised her head and quickly knelt down. With tears in her eyes, she begged: "Madam..."
"Aunt Bai, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings." Mrs. Hou knew what she wanted to say, so she kept everything she wanted to say in her stomach to avoid bad things.
Aunt Bai didn't want to say a word, but also wanted to beg Madam Hou, so she spoke again: "Madam..."
"Aunt Bai, this is the tutor invited by the Marquis. Don't be rude in front of others!" Mrs. Hou said angrily. She was more afraid that Aunt Bai would offend the tutor by saying something.
Everyone knows that dancing is not for publicity and is meant to please men, but it cannot be said out loud.
Aunt Bai knew that even if she spoke out, she would not be able to change the outcome. Her pleas were not important, nor was her weight as a person.
She had no choice but to remain silent, but she still knelt on the ground and cried silently, as if she had already seen her daughter in the future.
"Anchu, come forward." Seeing Aunt Bai calm down, Mrs. Hou asked Zhang Anchu to come to her.
Zhang Anchu didn't know the situation, why Aunt Bai suddenly knelt down, and why she was crying. He glanced at Aunt Bai and gently shook his head at her with tears in his eyes, as if to tell her not to go.
She also wanted to cry in her heart, but crying would not solve anything. Madam Hou asked her to step forward, and she had to step forward without making Madam Hou unhappy.
Listening to what they just said, they were just learning to dance. She wanted to learn and wanted Aunt Bai to live a better life.
"This is Zhang Anchu, the third young lady of the Hou family. She is the same age as Zhang Anyi, but three months later." Mrs. Hou said regardless of Aunt Bai who was kneeling on the ground crying.
Shen Jiaoxi knew that Aunt Bai didn't want her daughter to learn dance, but she was invited by the Peking Marquis Mansion, so she naturally wanted to do her best. She saw that Zhang Anchu was suitable for her from the road.
Now, when I compare it with other people, the feeling of being suitable is even stronger. I am the same age as the second lady, but three months later, but I am taller than the second lady, with a slender figure, skin that can be broken by a blow, and facial features. Exquisite, with a pair of eyes like a pool of autumn water, there is no one more suitable than her.
Professor Shen nodded with satisfaction and said, "Miss San is a good dancer."
After hearing this, Aunt Yun covered her mouth and chuckled: "If I remember correctly, Aunt Bai comes from a certain building. I heard that many people spend a lot of money just to see Aunt Bai dance."
After saying that, he muttered in a low voice: "Sure enough, the third lady followed Aunt Bai."
Aunt Bai turned her head and glared at Aunt Yun fiercely, as if she wanted to eat her alive.
"Madam, look at Aunt Bai, she is staring at me!" Aunt Yun stood up angrily and complained to Mrs. Hou.
"Aunt Yun! Go back and take a good look at the female training, be careful of the trouble coming from your mouth!" Mrs. Hou knew that it was impossible to ignore it now. She let Aunt Bai's daughter learn to dance today. She was sorry for the two of them. Aunt Yun was so open-minded that she really deserved it. He has a bad memory, so he helps Aunt Bai and punishes Aunt Yun.
Aunt Yun was still a little unconvinced. After all, she was from a good family, but Aunt Bai was from a brothel and she shouldn't be on an equal footing with them.
However, Mrs. Hou scolded herself, so she had no choice but to give up. She just went back to look at the female training, and did not ask her to copy it, so it was considered towards herself.
