Counterattack [Interstellar] - Chapter 72
Bettina was stunned by the wall of the corridor alone. It took a long time to calm down. She wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and turned to go upstairs, but she suddenly found that Mrs. Jeanne was on the spiral staircase behind her. Behind her, there was also Ai Cecil, the butler of Fuda’s Palace.
Bettina was instantly embarrassed. She didn’t know how long Mrs. Jenny had been here, and if she heard the conversation between her and Alston just now, she had to bite the bullet and leaned back: “Your Highness.”
Mrs. Jennie did not say a word, looked at Bettina for a long while, then suddenly turned to look at Cecil, and asked: “Will the tailor your Majesty has requested for me come today?”
Cecil nodded: “A time has been arranged for you. They will come over after you have lunch, bring their company’s latest design and some matching jewelry for you to choose, and measure the size for you by the way.”
“Really…” Mrs. Jenny shook her head indifferently, “To be honest, I don’t like the popular styles of the main star in the past two years. It’s too concise.”
Cecil heard the words: “Please rest assured that the dresses of the company chosen for you this time have always been known for luxury. I have seen several dresses they have recently designed, and I feel you will like them.”
“Really?” Mrs. Jenny smiled, “Actually, there is no need for those with too many jewels, as long as they are more refined and novel.”
Mrs. Jeanne seemed to be full of curiosity about the designers and tailors coming in the afternoon. Bettina’s face was getting worse and worse when she was left out in the cold. If Cecil would definitely help Bettina in normal times , It’s just that Mrs. Jenny Tan Xing Zheng Nong…
As a housekeeper, it is Cecil’s job to watch and watch. He is many times better than Auston at this point, but now Mrs. Jennie is obviously embarrassing Bettina. On the one hand, she is the mistress who has been neglected by her master recently. Her Royal Highness the princess who served since childhood, Cecil knew which side he was on without even thinking about it.
“There is a blue and white dress that is good. The stacking of fabrics is not complicated, but the tailoring is very exquisite, and there is no too much decorative jewelry. Only some pearl-woven lace is used.” Cecil thought for a while and added, “This The dress should go well with your blue diamond necklace.”
Mrs. Jennie smiled and shook her head: “No…I don’t have earrings and rings that match that necklace. You know, there are too few natural blue diamonds.”
“You don’t need a ring, if you think it’s less… the blue pearlescent nails should be enough to make up for this shortcoming.” Cecil thought seriously, “As for the earrings…I remember His Royal Highness Allen just returned to the star I have been given a few blue diamonds. I heard that His Royal Highness Allen wanted to make cufflinks and give them to Major General Pei Yao. His Royal Highness Edward also asked me to recommend a good jeweler, but later it was said that he gave up. “
Mrs. Jennie blinked puzzledly, and Cecil explained: “The diamonds are a bit small and not suitable, but it doesn’t matter if they are earrings. I think those diamonds have been forgotten by His Highness Allen in his safe. , You can ask, if it’s what you need, His Highness Allen will happily agree.”
Mrs. Jenny was amused by the right compliment. Taking advantage of her good mood, Cecil suggested: “They have sent me some pictures of the dresses before. Do you need to look at it? It’s in the small tea booth.”
Don’t look at Cecil intently, Mrs. Jennie turned her head and glanced at the dazed Bettina, nodded and said, “Okay, go and see.”
Cecil turned away and asked Mrs. Jenny to go upstairs. After the two of them had gone away, Bettina let out a sigh of relief, and leaned on the wall and sank to the ground.
In the small tea room, Mrs. Jeanne gave Cecil angrily: “You are so sweet to her.”
Cecil laughed: “His Royal Highness, what I did just now is very inappropriate…I am dereliction of duty as a housekeeper.”
“Appropriate?” Mrs. Jeanne sneered. “Don’t be kidding, know how many inappropriate things Bettina has done before? Anthony almost raised her chin to the ceiling when she was made the crown prince, thinking that she was a queen. Everyone dared to make jokes at the dinner, and in the conversation, he was disrespectful to Ellen and Queen Marian many times, ha ha… Do you know why she was strictly forbidden to appear in public after Auston? It was because she was too excited at that time and forgot to herself Who is it?”
Mrs. Jennie lowered her head to fiddle with the milk tea in the cup, and sneered: “At that time, Alan had just been taken away as the crown prince and was sent to Apollo for recuperation. She took possession of the magpie’s nest and thought she was the mistress… I’m far away from her coming.”
Cecil knew that Mrs. Jeanne had never looked down on Bettina, saying it was useless, so she nodded. Mrs. Jeanne took a sip of milk tea and said with satisfaction: “You still make the best taste.” She put down the small tea cup and looked up at the stuffed. Seer said expectantly: “Where is the photo you just said? Show me…”
Seeing Mrs. Jenny’s cheerfulness, Cecil was amused and nodded and said, “Yes.”
Alice, in Allen’s apartment.
“His Royal Highness, I found the diamond Mrs. Jenny wanted.” Pei Yao handed Alan a delicate jewelry box. “Edward didn’t find it in your palace. He thought that he might have been brought here by mistake. Sure enough Yes.”
Allen opened the jewelry box and glanced at it and smiled: “My aunt said that there are only two. When I came back and sent them, I told them that there are only a dozen, some of them are very small, and they are all given to my aunt.”
Pei Yao nodded, Allen lowered his head to continue reading, and smiled, “It is my aunt’s thank you for your hard work during this period of time.”
Pei Yao looked at Allen in confusion: “Thank you?”
Allen closed the book and pulled Peiyao to his side, smiling: “Have you heard? The Evda Palace has been very uneasy recently.”
Pei Yao shook his head blankly. He was more sluggish than Auston and didn’t realize it. Allen explained softly: “My aunt has been living in Evorda for a week… She and Bettina have always been at odds, this week. Bettina’s life was very difficult when she was tossed by her aunt.”
Pei Yao frowned: “His Royal Highness Jenny is very nice…” Pei Yao didn’t have much contact with Madam Jenny, but in the impression that Madam Jenny was a very gentle and considerate woman, Pei Yao was not very comfortable with all kinds of high society gatherings. Occasionally, Ellen When he couldn’t take care of him, Mrs. Jenny was always helping him out, and she would always mention some of his small details intimately, and Mrs. Jenny had no arrogance at all. When she talked to her, it was like a spring breeze, which made people very relaxed.
“That’s for you.” Allen wanted to tell Pei Yao in detail, but his eyes were locked by Pei Yao’s shirt collar unintentionally. Pei Yao had just bathed, and the tight skin was still moisturized. Allen looked. Pei Yao said indifferently, “No one will treat you badly.”
“I just finished washing, why don’t you dress well…is it cold?” Alan gathered his neckline from behind Pei Yao, sliding one hand into Pei Yao’s clothes without moving, and Pei Yao backed down subconsciously. , But fell into Alan’s arms.
“His Royal Highness…” Pei Yao flushed and squatted, “There will be drills tomorrow, we have to get up early…”
Allen chuckled: “What do I do, you remind me to get up early tomorrow?”
Pei Yao was embarrassed, and Allen also remembered tomorrow’s affairs. He knew that it would not be too much to toss Pei Yao, but it really made him not take advantage of him and he couldn’t bear it. Allen thought about it and said, “Then change the individual… “
Allen whispered in Pei Yao’s ear: “I told you before, don’t wear so much tonight…how about wearing only one shirt tonight?”
Pei Yao was stunned to understand what Ellen said by “wear only a shirt”. He now sleeps with Ellen every night, and they only wear a quilt. If they only wear a quilt as Allen said The shirt… Pei Yao blushed at the thought of the situation.
Before Pei Yao refuses Allen, he smiled and said, “It’s okay if you don’t want to, you know, I still have a lot of ideas.”
Pei Yao’s face was flushed and embarrassed, but Allen waited for Pei Yao’s reply with a smile. Pei Yao struggled for a long time, and finally gave a shy and inaudible “Um”, Allen licked his lower lip and whispered: ” Come… I’ll help you take it off…”
Spring is growing in Alice’s small apartment, and at the same time in the Evda Palace, Bettina, who was once again ridiculed by Mrs. Jenny, called the crown prince Anthony’s communication in despair…
