now that you've
enjoyed the performance.

Shall we begin our lesson?

Nanny Rong.

Let's make a deal before we start.

Your humble maidservant
is not worthy of making deals.

Your humble maidservant knows,

that deep down,

Your Highness is absolutely unwilling
to master the rules of etiquette.

Your humble maidservant is merely
following His Majesty's decree.

Your Highness's willingness is not
of humble maidservant's concern.

His Majesty's decree is absolute,
humble maidservant dares not disobey.

Should Your Highness
takes her lessons diligently,

humble maidservant will
honor the orders sooner.

Your Highness can too, be rid
of humble maidservant sooner.

Both Your Highness and
maidservant reap benefit from this.

Humble maidservant asks of
Your Highness to stop making excuses.

Humble maidservant this...
Your Highness that...

Your long speech sounds
like a tongue twister.

Bottom line is that
I haven't a way out, have I?

Why would you suddenly turn around
while walking forward...

without saying anything?

When walking,

one must maintain a calm composure...

and maintain distance
with the person ahead.

The handkerchief,
must be swung moderately.

Neither too high, nor too low.

Please walk once more, Your Highness.

Fine.

Your Highness.

The chin must be raised.

Composure, dignified.

Back, straightened.

Put on a slight smile on the face.

Not too much.

Please, walk once more.

Your Highness.

While walking,

one must not glance sideways,

or make funny faces.

Please walk once more, Your Highness.

Your Highness.

If you don't take this seriously,

it would take up to weeks...

just for you to learn to walk.

That would be none of my concern,
as maidservant has time to spare.

But you, Your Highness...

will be facing me from day to night.

Won't you feel fed up?

You keep tormenting me...

when you know very well
that I'll be fed up!

You think I'm afraid of you?

I'm only doing this for Father!

You can simply teach me!

Why are you making
me walk so many times?

Please walk once more, Your Highness!

What if I refuse?

If Your Highness refuses,
then maidservant shall take her leave.

Stand still!

You're going to complain
to Father, aren't you?

Not complain.

I'm reporting.

Forget it!

I'll walk.

How hard can walking be?

Please walk once more, Your Highness.

Your Highness.
