After learning how to walk with proper straight back, chin up, not bending my knees … the maid started piling up the books on my head so that I can still walk properly like a future queen.
But I fell so many times that my knees were scraped and on the verge of bleeding
“We can stop the training today” the maid said and went inside
I was happy that at least it ended and wanted to eat and sleep
So I stoop up and Shen Mia helped me to change my clothes since my clothes were torn and started applying ointment on my knees
Seeing the ointment, I knew I could develop so much better ointment and refreshing pills for me.
“Let now learn how to brew tea properly, the maid said while bringing a tea and tea leaves inside my room”
I looked at her with horror, she still wants to train, haven’t I trained enough
“Don’t look at me like that, I also don’t want to train you but it’s the empress order to train you in one month, since it will be your first impression to all the citizens as the future queen” she said
After listening to that I got up and sat on the chair to learn how to brew tea
“For brewing tea people usually add the tea leaves in the hot water, blend it and then pour it in the cup but that’s not how properly tea is made, this can work when it’s normal tea leaves but in the royal palace we get high quality tea leaves and if we make tea like that, it will taste bland, so make it properly we first add the tea leaves in the hot water and after that we remove that water and use the soaked tea leaves to make the tea and then pour out the tea. If the water is removed three four times more it tastes more sweeter but this needs to be done within one minute”

I saw how she made the tea and understood what she meant but this meant to not care about the hands because all the steam and even if hot water touches you cannot react
I looked at my hands which was soft which meant this body was definitely not used to this much heat and hasn’t even worked in the kitchen but if it was my previous body I could have done this easily since I used to work with lots of heat, needles.
I started brewing the tea, it felt so hot that tears were pooled in my eyes, but I continued to work, sometimes the hot water also dropped on me, my hands were red.
After working for 2 hours my hands were trembling but I was not able to change the water for more than 2 times.
“We can stop our training for today, you can rest, we will start early tomorrow morning” She said while looking at my hands
I knew that she was not happy with my training outcome but this was what needed to be done till I get the perfect time.
I can wait for the prince when he announces he doesn’t want to marry me or I will have to tell him which meant I won’t have much money left.
She remembered that that in the novel all her mother’s property went to her second sister dowry since she was going to be future empress but this time since she had taken over the body she will first only take away all her mother’s property. She won’t let anyone else touch her, she will take that with her.
I knew that this maid can help her to seize all her property and she can till then hide all her properly or invest it properly so she doesn’t have to face any issues in her future life.
Looking at her red trembling hands and scraped knees
“Shen Mia, can you please bring me a brush and paper” Her maid rushed and brought that to her Miss
i started writing the ingredients I wanted to cure for my hands and knees so that she can be refreshed as soon as possible
“Can you please bring all these ingredient from a medical store for me, take this 5 taels”
Shen Mia stared at me but soon she went out to bring the ingredients
Till then I thought what I could do for my safe and peaceful future.
