Rukia was recommended by Hinata to go to the calligraphy classroom of Captain Aizen several times when she first entered school, but it ended up being abandoned because of various intensive special training by Meilu.
However, she still has a good impression of this good-natured gentleman who is famous for his gentle temper. In addition, things are indeed not going well recently. After thinking about it, Rukia accepted the invitation and went to have a look.
Today is Mao's holiday, so there are mostly students in the teaching class, but there are also a few gods of death staying in it, and they are basically calligraphy lovers or admirers of the organizer Aizen.
The Japanese-style calligraphy class is elegantly and brightly arranged. In addition to the rows of low tables and soft cushions that look like ancient private schools, there are also some calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls in the neat Japanese-style room. Fresh flowers and plants add a bit of delicate color to the elegant room.
"Lukia, haven't you practiced calligraphy for a long time?" Stopping at a low table where Rukia was kneeling, Hinata half-bent and joked to the short-haired girl.
"No, no!" Some strong girls immediately retorted, but their eyes subconsciously looked at Mei Lu who was kneeling at the end of the low table and concentrating on her ink.
The blond-haired maid was sitting upright with her back straight, her right hand wrapped around the wide sleeve of her left hand, revealing a section of her wrist, and her left hand was lightly pinching the rectangular ink ingot, rubbing the ink in the inkstone in circular motions with a well-proportioned force , the ink stick always rotates at a ninety-degree angle. Her hands are very steady, and neither her fingers nor her wrists show any sign of shaking. Such an elegant and skillful posture still attracts many people unconsciously.
"It's really beautiful ink. Both the movement and the ground ink are very good." The founder of the calligraphy class, who was also observing, couldn't help but speak, and the gaze he cast on the maid was full of admiration, "I seem to understand a little bit, What is the meaning of what the ancients always said about adding fragrance to the red sleeves?"
"Hongxiu Tianxiang seems to be talking about the scene where the scholar and the beautiful girl accompany him to read?" Hearing the obvious joke of the captain of the fifth team at the end, some people followed suit, "Lukia does not meet the standard of a scholar."
The young lady of the Kuchiki family who was being teased was immediately embarrassed, but the maid who was grinding her next to her turned a deaf ear. When the ink on the inkstone was full, she gently put down the ink ingot: "Miss, the ink has been ground, please use it."
Seeing her unmoved appearance, Rukia suddenly realized that the aristocratic attitude of calmness and humiliation that had been instilled in her daily life had reached this level, and she couldn't embarrass her elder sister or elder brother's family!
She picked up the pen, dipped it in the ink, took a deep breath to calm down, and then began to write on the rice paper with a serious face.
Rukia has been in Kuchiki's house for two years. Although the family has given her special training for her strength, she has not lost her aristocratic self-cultivation, especially calligraphy, which is strictly required by her sister to practice. After all, she will use it when she goes out. There must be more things than asking her to perform tea ceremony and flower arrangement, and the words must always be handy.
So when she wrote a Chinese character post of "one heart and one mind" and received a lot of compliments, she was relieved and felt that she had passed the test.
"It's quite spiritual. If you practice hard, you will definitely achieve something in the future."
Hearing that Captain Aizen praised him so much, Lucia was immediately embarrassed and subconsciously humbled: "It's not as good as you said, to be honest, my calligraphy was taught by Sister Meilu, her handwriting is really good .”
She inadvertently shifted everyone's attention to the maid next to her, but the other party tilted her head and smiled when she heard the words: "Thanks to the praise from the eldest lady, it is Mei Lu's honor to have the trust of the madam to teach you calligraphy."
"This makes me curious." Not only Aizen who spoke, but also other people in the classroom thought the same, "Miss Meilu, if you don't mind, can we also meet your calligraphy?"
He also treated the servants with such a gentle and graceful attitude, which attracted the admiration of a group of fanboys and girls. Master Aizen is so kind, but there are still some people who pay attention to the delicate-looking maid, Looking forward to the follow-up.
Facing the leader-level existence with a transcendent status, Mei Lu did not immediately agree, but turned to look at Rukia, and after receiving the master's nod, she responded gently: "Melu has made a fool of herself."
The streets were still lively, and the calligraphy class was also very popular, but two girls, one tall and one short, walked out of the door.
"Thank you Captain Aizan for inviting me to the calligraphy class." Standing at the door, Rukia saluted and said goodbye to the man inside the door, "Then, we are leaving."
"Don't say that, I'm surprised to see Lucia that your calligraphy has improved so much now." The brown-haired man with glasses smiled gently, and looked at the maid behind her who was also saluting, "You have a good teacher .”
The master and servant of Kuchiki's house quickly turned and left. Aizen looked at them for a while and then quickly turned back to the room. The students in the room were still watching around the low table, discussing with each other very lively.
On that low table, besides the horizontal couplet that says "One Heart and One Mind", there is a piece of rice paper next to it with the word "Sincerity" written on it. The font is regular script, not wild, well-behaved, delicate and elegant.
Honesty and faith.
Honesty, candor...and loyalty.
What kind of little maid is this girl who is obviously very talented but willing to be present
The eyes behind the frame narrowed slightly, Ai Ran's heart flashed with interest, but her face remained unchanged, she continued to wear a gentle smile, stepped forward and blended into the crowd.
However, walking on the street, the maid said this to her eldest lady: "Missy's calligraphy is not bad, but there is still room for improvement in painting, and I have to practice when I have time."
"I just can't draw, I'm so sorry!" Rukia, who was still happy to show her face just now, suddenly became unhappy, what can she do if she can't draw.
The maid has a lot of experience on how to smooth the master's hair: "Recently, the store launched the latest Yihun Pill. It's called Chabi, and it's a very cute rabbit. Don't you want to take a look, miss?"
"What!?" Rukia, who was still depressed, was instantly distracted, "It's in the shape of a rabbit!? I want to see it!"
After shopping around for a whole day, I bought a lot of things I liked. After returning home, I was comforted by my sister's gentle comfort. In addition, the expected reprimand from my brother-in-law and elder brother did not come. Rukia's depressed mood quickly returned to blood. After recovering, she finished Muxiu and plunged into the work of the team again.
No matter what those people say this time, she just needs to be herself!
Missy has gone back to work, but it doesn’t mean that Meilu, the mistress and maidservant, will be able to relax. As Feizhen’s status in essence increases, her responsibilities as the mistress will also become heavier. Not to mention the calculation of expenses, but also the exchange of favors and gifts between the family and other nobles, what should the husband and others dress if they go out... Every piece of work is extremely tedious and tedious, and it is not enough She is a little sloppy.
... Fortunately, she has Mei Lu, who almost takes over most of the work for her.
Feizhen has been sighing like this for countless times in her heart. Looking back, she is really thankful for her kindness at the beginning. If Mei Lu was not there, she would probably still be in bed sickly, constantly blaming herself for not being able to find her sister. .
"Ma'am, the house's expense accounts for this month have been checked and sorted out, please have a look." The maid handed Fei Zhen the account books with clear entries, waiting for her to verify and check.
"Let's put it here, I'll take a look at it later." After two years of recuperation, Feizhen's complexion was rosy at this time, and she didn't have the original pale and sick face at all. The young woman who had regained her vitality was looking at her. Maid, "Melu, I heard from other servants that the captain of the twelfth division, Captain Mayuri, invited you to visit his laboratory today?"
"Yes." The maid did not hide it, "Master Nie said that she wanted to show me the manufacturing process of Miss Yinmeng. Miss Yinmeng is the highest crystallization created by Master Nie with the combination of the technology of prosthetic bones and the technology of righteous souls. I am very curious. , so I want to go and see."
Nirvana is nominally the daughter of Nirvana Yuri, but anyone who knows the inside story knows that she is a doll created by a scientific madman, the captain of the 12th division and the director of the Technology Development Bureau, who is constantly experimenting and improving.
"Captain Nie..." Fei Zhen recalled that person's usual eccentric temperament, and couldn't help frowning with a bit of worry, "Mei Lu, will you keep in touch with him..."
It's not hard to imagine how Nirvana Yuri, who has the typical mental state of a "mad scientist", will treat people and things. He can guess how popular he is with his knees. It can be said that he is two extremes with the very popular Aizen Soyusuke .
"Madam, don't you want me to have more contact with Lord Nie?" The maid asked.
"Yeah, it's not..." Fei Zhen didn't know what to say, "It's just..."
"Madam, if you don't want it, I will refuse." Mei Lu looked at her, "If you feel uncomfortable with someone I have contact with, please tell me, you are the most important thing in my heart."
The girl spoke very seriously, she thought so from the bottom of her heart. Fei Zhen, who realized this problem, was not happy at the first time, but felt a little heartache for no reason.
In the end, Fei Zhen let her go, and asked the maid to go to the 12th team to see what their captain's laboratory looked like.
"Welcome, Miss Mellow!" Scientists rely on their superior minds and technology to ignore or even despise ordinary people, but if they are of the same kind or even more capable, they often show enthusiasm and humility.
The Frankenstein standing at the gate of the laboratory is still wearing the strange attire that makes people shy away today, and is waving vigorously at the maid who is coming. Standing beside him is Nie Yinmeng, who is also taciturn.
"Come, come! Show you the initial results after I set up the [Sleep Project]!"
In front of a glass specimen column, Nirvana Yuri pointed to the thread-like corpse soaked in the transparent liquid and introduced it to Mei Lu.
"This is the first failure, Sleeping One!"
Then he led the people to show two more specimens, and the thread-shaped corpses inside were gradually enlarged.
"This is Mian No. 2 and Mian No. 3, both of which are failures."
Further back, there is a specimen in the shape of a brain.
"This is Mian No. 4. I have finally successfully evolved the brain. I have applied this regenerative technology to the body repair of the God of Death. It is almost the predecessor of the flesh and body regeneration medicine!"
"This fetus-like specimen is Sleeping No. 5. I used it to successfully transform my Ghost Slaying Knife. With this technology, I ascended to the captain's throne."
"And Sleep Six..."
Like a big kid who kept introducing his new toys to people, he talked endlessly about what he created and his achievements, and then stopped in front of a bed-shaped experimental table.
"Finally, Yinmeng is No. 7, and it is also my highest masterpiece so far. This child was born and awakened here!" Putting his arms around the shoulder of Nie Yinmeng who had been silent all this time, Nie Yuli smiled happily, " When No. 7 woke up at that time, I was as happy as if I had obtained the whole world. My research direction was right! She fulfilled my dream of creating a new soul from nothing, that feeling... "
However, the blond girl who had been following around for a while subconsciously touched the experimental bed in front of her, her eyes were in a trance for a moment.
"Are you awake? Your name is Mel, and I will use it from now on."
