Lady of the Lord From the East - Chapter 136

Felix: “His name is Antonio Wei Williams.”

Wei Wei: …Well, she should have thought of that.

To say how proud Felix was when he said the name, Wei Wei was speechless.

Chinese people generally avoid using the same name as their ancestors in naming names, but even so, because the population base is large, there are no more people with the same name. Many people complain about this. If it is not very troublesome to change the name, I am afraid it will be an adult. The first thing I do is to give myself a different name.

But the foreigners have a completely different attitude on this point. Although they will complain that their name is too common, and several people can respond at the same time when they call on the street, this does not prevent them from being willing to put their ancestors or even their own names. Use it for your descendants, and what’s more, the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren all have the same name.

This has to make people wonder how bad they are.

Wei Wei should have thought that she shouldn’t have too much expectations for Felix’s name.

And the name has been announced in public, can she change it? What’s more, this is Felix’s father. The name of her deceased father-in-law, even if she doesn’t want to, can’t say it.

I can only comfort myself, at least the name has a good meaning.

But if it is named according to this method, she can already predict that if she has another one, the boy may inherit the name of his deceased uncle, and the girl may be the name of grandma…

She squinted her husband, who was triumphantly accepting everyone’s compliments, Wei Wei rolled her eyes in her heart, and could only show a happy smile on her face.

What can she do, she is also very helpless, who made the Huaxia name not suitable for use in Europe.

Little Anthony has an official name, which also means that his order ceremony is over.

The candles used by his parents during the ceremony were put away. The candles with thick arms of the child have extraordinary meaning and will be treasured by the parents of the child after the ceremony. Of course, it is only limited to those who have the money to buy it. These candles are provided by the church. The price of this kind of large candle is very high, and it is difficult for commoners to buy it. The church can let them use it for free. This is a benefit for the small believers to join the church, but if you want to take it, you can only buy it with money.

After the naming ceremony is over, there is naturally a celebration feast.

Allen is Anthony Jr.’s new godfather, so at the celebration banquet, he was qualified to hug him.

The baby’s boneless body was put into his arms, making him stiff, and he was helpless and sent Felix’s eyes for help.

Felix understands this feeling very well, and that’s how he came here in the first place.

The maid stepped forward to teach Ellen how to hold the child under her master’s instruction. The latter finally adjusted her posture under her teaching, and calmed the little Anthony who had begun to frown, but his expression like an enemy still persuaded him. Retired the other knights who wanted to hug their children because of curiosity. It is better for them not to touch such weak beings who may cause big trouble if they are neglected.

But let go of the idea of ​​holding the child, but it does not prevent them from surrounding little Anthony and offering him blessings.

Everyone is wishing him to be healthy and smart, to be as strong and capable as his father when he grows up, and to praise him for his good looks.

The facial features of little Anthony, who is about to have a full moon, are no longer the red and wrinkled little old man. His skin is fair and his facial features are both European and oriental. He can easily find the shadow of his parents on it. The combination of the two Next, this is undoubtedly a very good-looking and very special mixed blood. Mixed blood from European countries is not uncommon, but at this time, Chinese and Western mixed blood should be very rare, and this makes everyone curious about his appearance.

On this day, the little protagonist received a lot of blessings and love. Wei Wei also had a rare day at the banquet when her face was frozen and she still enjoyed it. To hear everyone’s blessings for the child is very important to a mother. happy.

The naming ceremony took place on the fourth weekend of little Anthony’s birth, which is twenty-eight days, and he was born on May 1, so the child’s full moon banquet was scheduled for June 1. Wei Wei felt that this time was very important. Well, being born on Labor Day and the full moon on Children’s Day are all festivals that need to be celebrated.

The naming ceremony on the 28th is over, and the next highlight is the full moon banquet. The guests who received the invitation have already calculated the time to set off for Sardinson. They will deliberately avoid the naming ceremony. The time has come, but it will not be stuck on the day of the full moon banquet, which makes it difficult to arrange.

Of course, if they don’t plan to spend the night at the castle, they will still choose to come on the day of the banquet, and then leave after the banquet, but this is a grand banquet that Sardinson Castle can’t wait to prepare, and the nobles will basically choose to spend the night, even if It’s just one night, and they’re also staying to have more time with other people.

Fortunately, there are a lot of rooms in Fort Sardinson. After deliberately cleaning up, they can spare more than 200 rooms for the guests, so that all the guests can get at least one room. Of course, if the number of family members brought by the guests is too large. If so, then the young lady and the young master will have to choose to live in a room with other people, otherwise they will have to go to the town to find a place to stay for one night.

It is the habit of most aristocrats to bring their family and family when attending a banquet, and most of the time, the host cannot arrange accommodation for all the guests. Naturally, they will not feel bad about the arrangement like Sardinson Castle, but will Accept it, because it’s also a great opportunity to network with other people.

Before the guests arrived, Wei Wei went to talk to Dolores.

This time is obviously a bit rushed, but in a short time, a large number of guests will arrive, and both she and Dolores will be busy, and it is impossible to have any time to speak.

So after Wei Wei found someone, she sent the other servants away and dragged the little girl to talk in the room.

She didn’t say much, and said straight to the point: “Do you have a good impression of that Earl Aldridge?”

Dolores didn’t expect Wei Wei to ask her directly, although when Wei Wei came to talk to her, she vaguely guessed what it was for, but she asked directly, and the thin-skinned little girl blushed all of a sudden.

Seeing her like this, Wei Wei knew that she was right.

But she waited patiently for Dolores to say it herself.

After a while, seeing that Wei Wei didn’t intend to speak, Dolores lowered her head and dared not look at her and said, “I just think he looks good…”

Adonis Aldridge is really good-looking. Dolores thinks he is the best looking opposite **** among all the people she has ever seen. Even her brother Felix and his good friend Ellen are in her opinion, Even worse than Dunes, the appearance of the little earl completely hit her aesthetic.

To a certain extent, Wei Wei was right, Dolores and Felix are indeed a gangster, and their aesthetics are not the same as the orthodox aesthetics.

For example, in the eyes of other people, Adonis is good-looking, yes, but it is not necessarily comparable to Felix and Alan. The mainstream aesthetics cultivated since childhood make girls more like bright and masculine men, handsome The knight is their dream lover, and if Adonis is more mature, he will be more popular, but he is not fully grown yet. It looks good to everyone, but it is not the mainstream aesthetic. If there is no superior With the family background there, the popularity of Adonis may be greatly reduced, but not every woman can accept a person who is better than herself.

If you want to compare, it is probably the difference between the tough guys and the beautiful guys in later generations. In the eyes of people with different aesthetics, they are fundamentally different. There are many people who like one and hate the other.

Take Wei Wei as an example, she can appreciate two different kinds of beauty, but if she really wants to choose an object, she chooses the former one, which can give people a sense of security.

In this regard, Felix fits her standards and aesthetics very well.

And Dolores obviously prefers the latter, so she takes a fancy to Adonis.

Wei Wei sighed: “Count Aldridge was only sent to us by His Majesty the King by accident, and we don’t know much about his situation. If you are interested, you can try to get in touch, but he will leave after the Full Moon Banquet. , we may have few opportunities to contact in the future, so if the contact is unsuccessful, can you hold back your heart?”

It is not uncommon for girls to be blind for love. Wei Wei can’t see that Earl Aldrich has any special thoughts about Dolores. If it is really just a hot head, Wei Wei does not recommend Dolores to do this. A long-distance relationship is not an easy thing to do, especially in this era compared to the future, it takes a long time to write a letter and send it back and forth, and the risk of correspondence is quite large. Dolores is still unmarried. , the exchange of letters can easily become a handle. In her original history, there was a case where a certain king was coerced by his mistress’s younger brother to give money by letter after the death of his mistress.

Fortunately, although Dolores had a good impression of Adonis, she did not have the same “love at first sight” as Felix, so she was not disgusted with Wei Wei’s proposal.

She thought for a while, and slumped her shoulders a little: “I don’t think I like him that much either.”

“Why?”

“You said let me contact him, but I tried to think about it and found that I didn’t dare to talk to him at all.”

Her personality was originally relatively introverted. Although she has improved a lot now, she is still nervous when facing the unfamiliar opposite **** and cannot take the initiative to contact her. Although she has a good impression of Adonis, it does not seem to be good for her. Bring enough courage to let her take that step.

This time, it was replaced by Wei Wei, who hated that iron could not become steel.

“Give up so easily?” Wei Wei couldn’t help but raised her hand and tapped her forehead: “Lola, you have to know that although your brother and I won’t let you marry anyone, you should also understand that if you keep If you don’t get engaged for a long time, you will attract a lot of rumors, and you don’t usually have the opportunity to meet the right opposite sex. It’s rare to find someone you like. If you don’t try to get in touch, if you find that you don’t like other people in the future Yes, will you not regret it when you look back? Although the Earl of Aldridge is not very old, he should get married sooner or later.”

If she really regretted it when she looked back, it would not be good for her and her future husband to treat the other party as Bai Yueguang in her heart.

Moreover, Wei Wei has always felt that if she has a good impression on a certain person, but is sentenced out of the game without a chance to touch the other party, then this person is likely to become an indelible regret in her heart, beautified by time, and then meet again. When it comes to other people, he will unconsciously compare the other person with the person in his heart, and then be defeated by the person he has beautified, and even miss the lover who is more suitable for him.

But if she has tried it at first, she may soon find out that the other party is not as perfect as she imagined, and then she may feel that it is not suitable for her to give up without being told by others, and she will not turn the other party into her heart in the future. White moonlight.

So in the case of Dolores, Wei Wei tends to let her have a look.

Since Dolores was too embarrassed to take the initiative, her sister-in-law can help her.

“I will ask your brother to ask Earl Aldridge if he is willing to be your dance partner.” Wei Wei said what she thought: “Earl Aldridge looks very smart, he should be able to understand what’s going on here. Meaning, if he doesn’t agree to us, it’s nothing, if he agrees, you are bold and go chat with him.”

The dance partners of the dance usually have special meanings, especially unmarried girls. If their dance partners are not relatives, they basically announce that the relationship between the other party and themselves is not ordinary, especially the leader of this banquet is the Williams family. , Dolores belongs to the organizer, and her dance partner is very special. If Felix asks Adonis, he is asking him in disguise if he is interested in his sister.

Adonis agrees, which means that he has this intention for Dolores. It is not necessarily a promise to marry her, but at least he is willing to contact her to see. If he does not agree, then of course there is no need to say anything.

Dolores naturally understood the reasoning, so she was anxious while looking forward to it, but acquiesced to Wei Wei’s thoughts with a blushing face.

Seeing that she agreed, Wei Wei didn’t stay any longer. She got up and went directly to Felix. Soon the guests would arrive, and those nobles must come with their unmarried children this time. The noble banquet is the best. When they found out that there was a young, handsome, wealthy and unmarried Earl of Aldrich, Wei Wei would bet that he would make the hearts of all the girls who didn’t have a crush. After all, he was indeed a very good marriage partner. Especially for girls who are not particularly noble.

Felix, who had not yet made his fortune at the time, could become a serious golden bachelor for the ladies of the baron’s family. He was younger than him, and he had a very prosperous territory. Certainly more popular than Felix.

She could have imagined what would happen when the guests came to discover that there was Adonis here.

So she also gave Dolores a warning, telling her that if Adonis agreed to be her dance partner, she might also want to shirk other people’s invitations.

But having said that, when Wei Wei went to find Felix, it was another story.

“Ask him for his opinion and try to express our meaning as clearly as possible. He should understand what it means if he agrees, so don’t try to use Lola as a shield.” Wei Wei said to Felix like this, and finally added another sentence : “Of course, don’t make it too clear directly.” Otherwise, it would be embarrassing for Dolores to be rejected.

However, with the current status of the Williams family, as long as Earl Aldridge is not stupid, he will not make a rash decision. After all, if he does not really intend to agree to this matter, he will easily offend their family.

Felix didn’t expect what his wife was thinking about these two days, but Felix readily agreed to her proposal.

Then he went to Adonis to tell him about it.

This earl is a good guest. He does not treat his servants harshly, and he is very gentle and friendly to everyone. Besides going out hunting with other knight guests, he spends most of his time in his room reading a book and resting. Don’t bother the owner very much.

So it’s easy for Felix to find someone, just go to the guest room where he rests to find someone.

Seeing him coming, Adonis was a little surprised, but he still greeted him politely.

As Wei Wei said, Adonis is a very scheming person. His mind is deep. Although he is young, it is not easy for people to see his thoughts, but this is not a bad thing. What a qualified great noble should look like, someone who is too simple and simple can’t keep the honor of the family.

Just like Felix, don’t look at him sometimes seems overly simple in front of Wei Wei. He can see through any thoughts at a glance. It’s just that he doesn’t want to disguise himself in front of her. When he really faces other people, he It can also be turned into a fox.

The two of them talked for a long time with meaningless scenes before Felix revealed his intention: “It will be the full moon party soon, and my sister has not found a suitable dance partner yet. I wonder if I can ask your Excellency?”

As soon as he said these words, Adonis understood his purpose.

In fact, from the past, there were many people who came to him to sell their daughters/sisters, so he was not surprised by Felix’s actions, but seriously recalled the person who only met a few times, but never Miss Williams who spoke.

But after thinking about it this way, Adonis found that although it was true that they only met a few times, the impression the other party gave her was not shallow.

First of all, that Miss Dolores is indeed an outstanding beauty, with blonde hair and blue eyes, and a tall stature. Except for being a little younger, she is undoubtedly the most Prady woman, and she has an outstanding temperament. ‘s upbringing.

Then again, if the unmarried girl Adonis has met, if she has a good impression of him, even if it is not bold and initiative to strike up a conversation, she will appear by his side under various excuses, intentionally or unintentionally, to show her existence, and try to use eagerness. His eyes and shy smile attracted him to take the initiative to talk to him, but that Miss Dolores, Adonis recalled that, he had never done such a thing before.

But to say that the other party doesn’t have a good impression of him, it seems that he is not, at least when Dolores looked at him for the first time, Adonis did not miss it.

So when he didn’t notice it himself, he actually had some impression of that Miss Dolores.

This is relatively rare. You must know that because he has been very popular since he was a child, Adonis has always seemed polite to the opposite sex, but in fact he never cared about it. Few people can leave him when they meet everywhere. Under the impression, and now, he can still remember the reaction of the other party when he first saw Dolores, and he was clearly focused on talking to Felix at that time.

After thinking for a while, he opened his mouth and said to Felix, “Can you give me some time to think about it?”

This time it was unexpected for Felix. He thought that Adonis either agreed or refused directly.

Regardless of his willingness to think about it, it shows that he is very cautious about this invitation.

Not just thinking about an invitation, but something deeper.

“Of course, but I hope you can give me an answer as soon as possible, so that I can make follow-up arrangements.” If Adonis disagrees, he has to go and see who can be the temporary dance partner of Dolores. After all, there are too many guests at this banquet. Dolores’ popularity will not be less than that of Dunis, or even more. I am afraid that the guests who receive the invitation will not miss this opportunity, so although she can No dance partner, but Felix still intends to prepare a shield for his sister to block most of the harassment.

Of course, I can’t ask Allen for this kind of thing. His status as a **** is not a good choice for Dolores. Besides, Allen just broke off the engagement. Dolores and him attending the dance together will make people misunderstand their relationship. , so you have to find someone else.

Oh, so, in addition to Adonis, Ellen seems to be the target that other unmarried girls will chase, right?

Adonis: “Can I give you an answer tomorrow?”

“Then let’s talk about it.” Felix got up and said goodbye.

After sending the person away, Adonis sat back in his original position and continued to think about this problem.

After Felix left, his side servant came in to clean up the tea and snacks on the table. While cleaning up, seeing that his master was in a daze, he couldn’t help asking, “Master, what’s the matter with you?”

I wondered if that Earl Williams said something to embarrass their young master? This is really rare.

Adonis came back to his senses, looked at his personal servant who had served him a long time ago, and suddenly asked him, “Should I get married?”

The servant was stunned for a moment, and then immediately looked happy: “Master, are you finally getting married? Who is it? The sister of Earl Williams? Can I write back to the lady now and ask her to prepare for the wedding?”

God, they only know every day that the young master who works, studies, studies and works is finally willing to take on the responsibility of the head of the family and spread the branches and leaves for the family? This is very good, and the lady will be very happy to know this news!

“…Shut up, don’t write!” Instead of his gentle appearance in front of outsiders, he glared at the beaming servant, pointed at the door irritably, and let him go out.

The servant was not afraid at all, and the one with the news went out with something. Before closing the door, he suddenly put his head in from behind the door: “So, is it really the Williams family lady?”

In exchange for an unceremonious high-pitched voice from Adonis: “Go away!”

The servant closed the door immediately, thinking to himself, the young master did not refute it, it seemed that it was indeed the one.

Well, he’s going back to write a letter to Madam now!

The author has something to say: Adonis (#”): It’s really a torture to have a petite and servant who knows you too well and isn’t afraid of you.
