Chapter 75: Mistakes, Mistakes, More Mistakes
Clank!
Adela tried her best to follow Aurora’s arrangement, but she found that she was unable to do it properly.
"It’s been five times, it’s enough, Adela," Aurora said again.
Adela stiffly stopped the teaspoon in her hand and then looked at it, unsure what she should do now. She had already learned what she should do with the teaspoon, but at this moment, all of the teachings from her mother was completely forgotten.
The other girls watched Adela’s blank look and arched their eyebrows.
They felt that this duke’s daughter’s education was not even as good as them who had much lower status.
Even Lucy looked rather surprised. Among them all, Lucy could be said to be the person with the lowest noble lady’s education. The others knew her background, so they didn’t say anything when Lucy made a mistake since she would also actively asked them for correction.
For someone who was willing to learn like that, they also showed kindness.
Anyway, all of them were still students at this time.
They were not exactly on the high society yet.
Even if there were definitely some of them who felt superior to Lucy, but she would not show in the presence of Aurora. With Aurora as the role model but she was willing to teach Lucy patiently, how could they show their pride and arrogance?
Under Aurora’s eyes, they didn’t dare to.
They could only honestly learn and drink their tea, making sure they paid attention to the table manner and also the tea etiquette to engrave it to their bones.
As long as it became natural, they would not be nervous when they truly face the high society in the future.
"Put the spoon behind your cup," Aurora said again.
"Uh, ok." Adela put the spoon behind the cup and then it fell down. "I..."
"Put it gently and there’s no need to rush. There’s enough space behind your cup to put your teaspoon," Aurora reminded. Her voice was really gentle, but it was easy to feel pressure just from her words alone.
Adela nodded stiffly and then put the teaspoon properly.
After that, they picked up the cup and sip it gently. Adela was stiff and her fingers were trembling a bit, making Aurora reminded Adela about how she should hold her cup properly.
As Adela took a sip, she nearly throw it out again.
The tea is hot!
*fiuh*
Adela blowed the tea so that she could drink it but face the strange expression from the other noble daughters around the table. This made her feel even more pressure.
Aurora looked at Adela and said, "Don’t blow your tea, Adela. Let it cool down on its own. We’re here to enjoy the tea and there’s no need to rush."
Don’t blow the tea...
At this time, Adela seemed to remember that her mother had already taught her this in the past. But out of habit, she blow her tea.
Putting the cup on the table again, Adela was stiff.
"Hold your cup properly like this..."
"Sip gently to enjoy the tea..."
As time passed, Aurora kept on reminding Adela again and again. The other ladies who participated in this tea party understood that this was a special tea party for Adela’s lessons.
They looked at each other and simply watched the show.
Anyway, they have already learned this basic from Aurora and what they needed to do was to practice again and again to make the move more natural.
Listening to Aurora kept on reminding Adela would also serve as teaching material for them.
Teaching material of what they shouldn’t do.
The supposedly short tea party felt like a lifetime for Adela. She looked at the Crown Prince and the others who were watching and found them were also looking in her direction.
Crown Prince Edward felt that Aurora’s teaching was correct.
Because he himself had already seen his mother correcting his posture when drinking tea together. This etiquette was not only for women but also for men when they accompanied the woman or having tea on their own.
So Crown Prince Edward did learn these.
It was just... seeing Adela looked like a stupid girl who couldn’t do anything right made him frown.
He was sure that these should have been taught by Duchess Isabella to Adela.
But her performance was really bad.
This made him remember the days when he was reprimanded by his own father and mother because of his studying progress was not good.
The difference was that Aurora reminded Adela in gentle tone while his mother and father would not be so lenient. It was already good enough if they didn’t punish him and then threw him out to practice swordsmanship.
Louis had a contemptuous expression on his face.
He had learned these things very quickly in the past since his father told him that he had to know this. After all, etiquette could be said to be a weapon for them to use when facing others.
Seeing how badly Adela was, Louis only felt that women were really bad.
None of them were good.
Leon had no interest in these things. He knew this, but he didn’t really like drinking tea, so he would not practice it often. Rather than anything, he felt bored while waiting here.
Benny was looking in Adela’s direction with interest.
Different from the other three, he felt that Adela was really cute when she kept on failing. It was as if seeing a little kid who tried to learn to walk but kept on failing.
Among the five of them, Benny’s etiquette was only second to Adela.
So he felt amused and proud of himself.
It turned out that there was someone worse than him.
Sensing their gazes, Adela felt even worse. She was really close to cry again and after hearing Aurora’s words reminding her again, Adela finally couldn’t stand it and ran out of the tea ceremony club.
"Adela!"
Crown Prince Edward called and also followed with Benny following closely behind. The other two snorted, but they still tagged along.
