Higgins took under his wing Eliza Doolittle away from the streets. Her job when she was on the streets is to peddle her wares as a flower girl. After taking Eliza under his wing, he taught her how to speak English accurately coupled with a civilized accent and also taught her how to behave in a sophisticated manner.
Higgins goes around telling rumors about Doolittle's life in Pygmalion. It was a attempt to try to turn people against Doolittle.
