Time Travel: The Noble Family-Chapter 118 - 52: Embarrassment_2
Chapter 118: Chapter 52: Embarrassment_2
Among the four, Yuehuan suffered the most. She couldn’t sway or twist when she walked; she had to remain upright and straight. If she made a mistake, she wasn’t punished but was simply told to do it again, and again, and yet again.
Among the four, Yuehuan made the most mistakes, which surprised Yueyao. Shouldn’t Yuebing have made the most mistakes? Why was it Yuehuan?
Yueyao watched Yuehuan as if she had never encountered such things before and found herself very puzzled. She had heard Hua Lei and a few others say that Yuehuan was good at learning anything, so she assumed Yuehuan also came from a large family. Yueyao believed that having a photographic memory was a gift from heaven that ordinary people couldn’t possess, which is why she thought Yuehuan must think like an adult and had been educated in these matters, meaning she should also come from a large family. But seeing that Yuehuan knew nothing about these rules and appeared to come from a small family, Yuehuan’s behavior was clearly inconsistent. Yueyao began to doubt Yuehuan for the first time, wondering what kind of person she was, what kind of background she had.
Nanny Wang’s look at Yuehuan couldn’t be clearer: the child is unteachable. She had explained over ten times and still couldn’t correct her. Compared to Yuehuan’s mediocre qualities, even Yuebing, whom the family had specifically reminded her to teach well, looked much more pleasing to the eye.
Yueying and Yueyao managed to hold back their laughter, but Yuebing clearly couldn’t. When Yuehuan was punished and made to start over once again, Yuebing finally couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Yuehuan’s face turned red at that moment; being looked down upon and laughed at by a nine-year-old girl was a terrible feeling! Ah, she had never been so embarrassed.
...
Seeing Yuebing laugh, Nanny Wang immediately punished her as well. The reason was simple, “You are sisters, and in the future, you will share the honor and disgrace as one family. By laughing at her, you are actually ridiculing yourself as well, so you must also be punished together.” The nurturing nanny had to teach not only etiquette and rules but also many principles of life.
Yueyao was slightly startled when she heard this, but she quickly realized her reaction was unusual and immediately lowered her head. However, none of this escaped Nanny Wang’s notice.
Nanny Wang always felt that she couldn’t see through Yueyao. For an eight-year-old child to be so thoughtful was truly alarming.
As Nanny Wang looked at the sky, she finally announced the end of the class. Before the four young ladies left, she added, “You must remember, a real lady’s walk should not make the slightest sound, and these qualities must be gradually cultivated and deeply ingrained. Otherwise, instead of drawing a tiger, you draw a dog.” Being a lady is not just talk.
Nanny Wang’s implication was evident; nothing comes out of thin air. To reach that level, one must study diligently and integrate these rules deep within oneself so that they manifest in every gesture and motion as a sign of good upbringing.
Yueyao’s expression was very respectful, “Nanny’s teaching is right; I will be attentive.” To avoid being criticized for poor manners, she still needed to work hard.
Yueyao’s words caused Nanny Wang’s brow to furrow once more; Yueyao had said ‘I’ instead of ‘we’. Since they are all young ladies of the Lian family, they should be united.
Nanny Wang shook her head; such a personality was not good in the Third Young Lady. It seemed she had to speak to the Old Madam about this.
After practicing walking all morning, her waist ached, her back hurt, and her legs cramped, but Yueyao endured it all without uttering a word. After lunch, she lay down and had Qiao Lan massage her.
Nanny Deng spoke softly, “Miss, why don’t you rest your feet at Jingsi Garden or another courtyard at noon, so you don’t have to walk back and forth? It’s very tiring.” Going back and forth took almost an hour; even after having lunch, there wasn’t enough time to rest.
Yueyao, looking at the familiar surroundings, shook her head and said, “I’m fine, I can endure.” She definitely did not want to stay in any other courtyard. Once she went familiar with the place, Lady Mo would find excuses to make her move out. Initially, with ulterior motives, she had been made to move to Lanxi Courtyard. Now that plan had fallen through, they surely wanted her to move out. But in this lifetime, unless she left Lian Mansion, she was determined not to move out of Lanxi Courtyard.
Yueyao narrowed her eyes slightly and went back to Jingsi Garden. Whether it was learning manners or studying calligraphy, it all took place in Jingsi Garden.
The afternoon’s first class was calligraphy, taught by Mr. Yun. If it had been before, Yueyao would have considered it a complete waste of time. But now, Yueyao had adjusted her attitude and took it as a means to cultivate her temperament.
Mr. Yun first asked everyone about their level of study.
