Seeing that Madam Liu was sullen, Yin Xu quickly said, "Mother, don't be sad. Father is considerate of you and allowed you to have a eunuch by your side so that you can relieve your loneliness from time to time. Now that A-Tian is gone, let my elder sister-in-law find you another good eunuch to keep you company..."

Madam Liu nodded and said, "I'm not in the mood for that right now. Let's do it in a while!"

Then, Madam Liu waved her hand, dismissing all the servants, leaving only Yin Xu and Madam Zhang present.

Madam Liu then continued, "By the way, Xu'er, tell A-Tian about the Sixth Miss's health later. He serves by the Sixth Miss's side, and he'll find out eventually. You need to give him a good talking-to, so he doesn't do anything that would damage the reputation of the Yin family."

Yin Xu quickly and respectfully replied, "Yes, Mother. I will certainly handle this matter well and not let Mother worry about such a trivial matter."

Liu waved her hand and said wearily, "Alright, there's one more thing I need to remind you of. Because of the Sixth Miss's special condition, we've already given her too much care. We can't give her any more special care in the future."

How should young ladies from secluded chambers be raised in the future? The Sixth Miss will be raised in the same way, even more rigorously than those young ladies from secluded chambers. She must be proficient in everything: playing the zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, flower arranging, tea tasting, needlework, embroidery, music and dance, female precepts and rules, etiquette and manners.

And Xu'er, don't let Sixth Sister spend all day with you studying medicine. From now on, Sixth Sister should spend no more than two hours a day studying medicine. The remaining time should be spent learning the things I just mentioned.

Zhang, you must arrange the time properly. No matter how late Sixth Miss studies, she must finish her daily lessons. Ah Tian is very knowledgeable in these areas; from now on, Sixth Miss will study under Ah Tian.”

Upon hearing this, Madam Zhang replied, "Yes, Mother! Please rest assured, your daughter-in-law will arrange everything properly. However, although dancing can indeed bring joy and happiness, it is ultimately just a skill for entertainment. Even if our sixth daughter is born out of wedlock, she is still a daughter of the Yin family."

Therefore, in my opinion, there is really no need for Sixth Miss to learn these things that please others. After saying this, Madam Zhang nodded slightly.

Liu's eyes narrowed slightly: "It is precisely because she is a concubine's daughter that she must learn. As a concubine's daughter, one must either marry down or marry up. Haven't you all decided? If the Sixth Miss is determined to marry up, then she can only be a concubine."

A concubine doesn't need to be dignified, elegant, or reserved. The only way to secure favor is through gentleness and charm, being submissive and obedient in front of her husband. She must also be understanding. Dance can bring out this charm to its fullest extent.

Moreover, people who dance for many years have extremely flexible bodies, especially their waists. When serving their husbands in bed, they naturally have a wide variety of positions, making the experience even more enjoyable.

Madam Zhang nodded and said, "Mother is so farsighted. I will definitely make sure Sixth Miss learns the dance well. I was originally planning to get her ears pierced this winter!"

Since Ah Tian is so skilled at these things, let him do the beating for Sixth Miss in a couple of days…

About 15 minutes later, Ah Tian walked over gracefully, knelt down on both knees, raised her hands above her head, kowtowed and said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, my servant has finished preparing."

Yin Xu Zhang bowed and said, "Then we won't trouble Mother any longer, we'll take our leave now."

Liu waved her hand, signaling them to leave first. Seeing everyone leave and looking at the empty house, Liu felt a sudden emptiness and exhaustion. Dragging her weary body, she returned to her bed and went back to sleep.

But without the eunuch A-Tian's presence, Liu couldn't fall asleep no matter how much she tossed and turned...
