Sheng sent his stepdaughter Rong Jieer and his niece Xian Jieer to a girls' school. Besides being literate, she also learned how to be a person. Ming Lan even taught two girls to read these books herself. When two girls saw many questions in the ledger, Ming Lan encouraged them to find the answers themselves. What the two girls said later was very insightful.
Sister Rong said, "This foreign steward has been running errands for many years. At first, he was honest. Later, I won the trust of the people in the courtyard, so I lost this concern, lied about the high price and ate money from it. But we also have our own mistakes, that is, we must always supervise the use of the elderly. "
Sister Rong found the problem of the account book through checking, so she looked for witness material evidence. Through analysis, she came to the conclusion that foreign flight attendants were corrupt, and deduced her mental course of corruption. Worst of all, Sister Rong didn't criticize the greed of outsiders blindly, and at the same time reviewed her oversight responsibility as a manager.
What a modern MBA management course this is! There are both methodology of case analysis and discussion on human nature. I thought that when I was their age, I knew nothing about society and people's hearts. I was just a rebellious young man.
Back to the story, when Sheng was young, she went to school with her brothers and sisters. After school, Ming Lan learns embroidery with her maid and mother at home, and makes a sachet/shoe as a gift for family and friends from time to time. This is also a very good extracurricular interest class that makes people calm down.
Later, because the elder sister was getting married, grandma invited a wet nurse who came out of the palace to teach several sisters manners together. Don't say it's red tape. Nowadays, many people are also learning the etiquette lessons of our time.
In the TV series, there are so many maids around Ming Lan that the first-class, second-class and third-class maids add up to a dozen or twenty people. It really makes people want to denounce the luxury of that era, hehe is actually envy. Clothes are available, food is available, who doesn't like it? Later, when Ming Lan got married, many maids also got married, and even a room full of servants got married (called escort room). These maids, such as housekeepers, are Ming Lan's right-hand men, helping her to manage internal and external affairs.
I didn't understand why Ming Lan was surrounded by so many bossy people and let her live alone in a yard at an early age. Isn't this teaching Ming Lan how to know and manage people in practice? At the same time, we can also cultivate a group of our own right-hand man and loyal old servants.
Ming Lan's grandmother, who thinks herself to be the eldest lady of Yonghe Houyi Mansion, was born first-class, received a good education and went through hardships all her life. She is an old man with a thorough understanding and profound knowledge of the world. With the guidance of such a "senior professor", it is reasonable that Ming Lan can become such an exquisite Ming Lan.
After combing the education received by Ming Lan, we find that this is a real quality education, which is not inferior to the education received by our current college students. Of course, Ming Lan's scientific knowledge is scarce, but Ming Lan is a rare talent who understands human nature, understands communication, is calm when things go wrong, and makes decisions before moving.
Feudalism is not all dross, and modernity is not all advanced. Reading history can be wise, and watching TV plays can also learn a lot of knowledge. As the saying goes, "take its essence and discard its dross."
