Lady of the Lord From the East - Chapter 160

The appearance of the protagonist of the banquet was another climax in this engagement banquet.

Because it was so powerful, Adonis even wore a blue suit and tie, which matched Dolores’ red dress very well.

Originally, his dress was not like this at first, but a traditional Prady robe, but Salina has seen those valet and knight clothes, and also saw Wei Wei’s drawing of the style of Felix’s original suit. After that, I immediately found a tailor, hurriedly hurried, and made such a set in a hurry.

After the change, Adonis was also extremely satisfied with the mature style that this kind of clothing could reflect, and even the smile was more real than usual.

I always feel that this kind of clothing that has not been popular in the king before, maybe soon, it will become popular among the nobles.

The appearance of handsome men and beautiful women attracted the attention of all people.

The presence of the masters and the gathering of guests also means the beginning of the banquet.

An engagement is not as troublesome as a wedding. It requires a ceremony in a church. Generally speaking, it only requires both men and women to announce their good news. Treating guests and banquets is just a way to celebrate.

Of course, some people will play tricks, such as repeating the scene of the marriage proposal at the banquet, which Adonis did.

In front of everyone, he knelt down, holding Dolores’ hand, holding the ring that was temporarily taken down, and said the original marriage proposal again.

“…Beautiful lady, will you marry me?”

The willingness to repeat the original proposal in the public fully reflects the importance he attaches to Dolores, and also sees all the female guests around, especially the unmarried ladies, all blushing and heartbeat, eyes glowing, covering their mouths He shouted romance in his heart, and while being moved, he also fantasized about having such an excellent marriage partner.

Being proposed again, Dolores was still very excited. She agreed to the proposal as before. After putting on the ring, she couldn’t wait to pull Adonis up, and she bent down to help him pat the dust on his knees that did not exist. .

After a while, the music paused and they had to go off for the opening dance.

Wei Wei stood beside Felix, looking at the dancing Dolores with relief and reluctance. The red skirt drew a perfect circle in the air. The little girl who used to be inferior and afraid of life has now become an adult in the eyes of others. , Even if you stand in front of so many people and see it, you will no longer be afraid to escape.

She leaned on Felix and kept her eyes on the dancing girl: “I’m really reluctant to see her engaged.”

She originally thought she could stay with Dolores for a few more years. After all, she seemed to be very repulsive about marriage at that time. When her marriage was brought up, she always hoped to get married later, but as soon as she saw Adonis, it changed. Heart, quickly indulged into feelings, do not know whether this is good or bad.

“It’s not that Adonis is bad, it’s just that they have only known each other for such a short time, and they just talked about marriage directly. I always think it’s a bit too hasty.”

As her maiden’s family, Wei Wei must admit that Adonis’ conditions are very good, and she is a son-in-law/sister-in-law candidate that everyone will be satisfied with, but this does not prevent her from feeling that they are getting together too fast. A few months, and their actual time together is shorter, maybe even a month, relying on correspondence, the second visit to set a marriage contract, which is faster than lightning.

After seeing a lot of modern flash marriages and divorces, she was very worried about whether their relationship was really stable, and whether it was just a temporary feeling.

She didn’t believe in love very much herself, so it was really unacceptable in her heart to make a marriage contract with them so quickly.

Felix put his arms around Wei Wei’s shoulders and said softly, “I don’t know if they are suitable, but at least they like each other now.”

In the marriage of nobles, most of the time they only value interests. There are very few people who can come together because of love. Felix is ​​very glad that he has married the person he likes, and Dolores did not go with Adonis because of the marriage. come together.

The future will only be known later, even if their future relationship changes, Felix believes that with the power of the Williams family, Dolores can be sheltered, no matter if she wants a divorce or something else.

Of course, he hopes that his sister will have a happy marriage like himself.

“Adonis is really good. I think he and Lola are a good match. The important thing is that Lola still likes it. Do you want her to miss such a good person?”

Not very willing, otherwise she would not have been able to acquiesce or even help arrange for them to get along before.

“And we agreed that the marriage can be arranged after Dolores is sixteen years old. She can still stay at home for two years, and she is not going to get married soon.”

If the Aldrich family agreed to this request, it already showed that they were very sincere. Otherwise, after getting engaged, most people are afraid that the wedding will be held in a few months.

Although Wei Wei actually still felt that sixteen was a little early, and she had to be eighteen anyway, she also knew that she couldn’t stay for that long. She could keep the girls in the family until they were sixteen. For people of this era, It’s already very late. If you stay, let’s not say what the man has in mind. I’m afraid others will start spreading rumors again, which is not good for her.

In these times, it was already a luxury to keep Dolores for two more years.

She only sighed for a while, and quickly put this complicated mood behind her.

The opening dance soon ended in the first song. Wei Wei was sensitive to find that the guests around her were beginning to move, and their footsteps began to come towards them. She was shocked and took Felix to the dance.

“We’re going to dance too.”

To say why she doesn’t like attending banquets so much, it’s because other people’s goals are too straightforward. There are always a steady stream of people who have relationships with them, talk about business, and make friends. If you spend a whole night on Dealing with these people, no matter how fun the banquet is, she won’t like it.

When necessary, Wei Wei doesn’t mind chatting with these people, but if she’s been harassed all the time, she can hide if she can.

Felix let his wife drag him to dance, and although neither of them liked the activity very much, if the dance partners were each other, there was nothing they would not like.

Ballroom dancing in this period always had a gap between partner exchanges. Wei Wei dragged Felix and danced next to Dolores and Adonis. When changing partners, they just exchanged each other. Taking advantage of that short gap, Wei Wei said to Adonis: “You must treat Dolores well in the future.”

She also wanted to say something threatening, but she couldn’t think of what to say, and the occasion was not suitable, so she could only shut up.

“I will,” Adonis assured. “I will do my best.”

“Then hope you can do it.”

A few seconds later, Wei Wei returned to Felix’s arms.

They danced three dances in a row, and Wei Wei said that her legs hurt and she didn’t want to dance.

Felix hugged her off the dance floor and said with a smile, “When I watched you go shopping, I didn’t feel anything after walking for a few hours. Why did I get tired after just a few minutes of dancing?”

“That’s not the same.” Wei Wei said righteously: “When women go shopping, they pay attention to the goods, where will they pay attention to their feet, then they won’t get tired no matter how much they walk, but dancing, eh? After a few laps, I fainted, I’m still getting old.”

Yes, her head is more dizzy than her feet are tired. She always turns around and around after a dance. She can’t stand it anyway.

Felix looked around. The guests were either playing or harassing Salina and Prince Andrew over there. No one noticed them for a while, so he suggested, “Go out for a walk?”

At this time, it is too early to leave the room and go back to the guest room, but it is a good choice to take a walk in the garden.

Although it was winter, it was still night, and almost nothing could be seen in the garden.

But Wei Wei still agreed. She looked back at Dolores who was still dancing, and felt that she might dance until the end of the banquet tonight. Holding hands with Felix, he took a thick cashmere shawl at the door, draped it over his body, and slipped quietly into the back garden with Felix who put on the cloak.

The garden of Aldrichburg is very large and is a typical European-style courtyard. The garden is dominated by evergreen green plants. There are half-person-high shrubs on both sides of the road. Even in winter, it is green in a hurry. There are pavilions, benches for people to rest, and even a gorgeous iron swing with flower vines wrapped around it, but there are no flowers in this season, so the flower vines have become dead vines, even without leaves, the swing stands in On an empty and yellow grass, it looks extraordinarily lonely.

Seeing the swing, Wei Wei wanted to sit.

She dragged Felix to go there. There was a lack of lights, and the garden at night was very dark. There was only a lit bonfire on the roadside to illuminate, so far away, you could only rely on moonlight.

Fortunately, the moonlight is good tonight, and the silvery moonlight shines down. After getting used to the darkness, the brilliance is enough for them to see things clearly in the night.

Although many people in this period had night blindness, they did not include aristocrats. Their food was very rich, and carrots were one of the few vegetables at this time, and they were easy to store. .

So Felix saw with sharp eyes that someone in the distance was also approaching with the swing as the target, and it was faster than them.

He grabbed Wei Wei, stood on the edge of the bushes, and pointed to it: “There is someone.”

Wei Wei was pointed by him, only to find that a man and a woman were walking to the swing side by side, and then they sat and pushed each other to play, and the light laughter of young women could be heard in the cold wind.

Wei Wei narrowed her eyes and couldn’t see who it was, but through the moonlight, she could see that the man who was pushing the swing was dressed in black. When he raised his hands, the outline of his clothes was not a robe.

“…Our knight, or a servant?”

“It should be a knight.” Felix’s observation ability is better than her, and he noticed the other person’s size: “You didn’t arrange for Butler Patton and the others to help greet the guests, and he watched, those servants couldn’t be here at this time. .”

So if there is time, there are only knights who are free to move now.

“Then let’s go somewhere else.” There was obviously an exchange of feelings over there. Didn’t they disturb others in the past?

Wei Wei decisively pulled Felix to other places.

Then along the way, they found that there were really quite a few knights in this garden, and they all had company by their side.

“It seems that our spring in Sardinson is ahead of schedule.”

The author has something to say: Wei Wei: I don’t know how many pairs it can be.

Felix: There should be more population in Sardinson.
