Chapter four hundred and eighteenth strange invitation
Saturday, May 14, 1350.
Snow, who was rarely wearing an Intis-style suit but chose a Loen tuxedo, was sitting in an unluxurious carriage. In the West District, such a carriage without a family crest would have to give way to everyone on the road. This made
This not-so-long journey became a bit difficult.
Although with his current family background, it is not difficult to purchase a piece of land and become a territorial noble, but considering that the country is about to encounter war, he still chooses to wait for a while - even if he is not short of money, he is not
He doesn't like waste. Rather than spending it on land that is about to depreciate, he is more inclined to use the money to purchase more food. After all, it won't be long before food will become a real hard currency, regardless of whether it is on this land.
It's the same in every country.
Seeing Snow leaning in front of the car window in boredom, the personal "man" Ilian finally found an opportunity. At this time, he was a red-haired young man with a typical Intis appearance, soft features, handsome eyebrows, but not
It will make people mistake his gender.
"You owe me a valet's salary!" Ilian whispered his request, and Snow just raised the corners of his mouth slightly:
"No problem. During the few days you play as a valet, I will pay you the valet's salary."
Ilian's expression suddenly froze, and then he said angrily: "This is a part-time job, you can't deduct my original salary just because I did an extra job!"
"Then do you want me to pay you the salary of the dormitory maid as well?" Snow rolled his eyes, and Ilian immediately shrank his neck and stopped dwelling on this issue.
She had no doubts about Snow's teeth. After all, this was a guy who could even bite a cat!
But Elaine shut her mouth, but someone wanted to speak——
"A silly maid wants to give birth to a baby for her master?"
"I don't know how!" Elaine glared at Lily who was lying on Snow's shoulder. Although she didn't quite understand how the cat switched back and forth between human and cat, she immediately refuted the other party's explicit remarks.
.
"Oh, that's good... I was worried that you were too stupid to raise a cub..." Lily shook her tail, rested her head on her hind legs again, and curled up gracefully. If she didn't look carefully, she might even
Think of her as an epaulet.
"Don't be such a bastard. Maria should have taught you how to speak, right?" Snow looked at Ilian's frustrated look and scratched Lily's chin in a funny way. Lily squinted her eyes, enjoying Snow's
caressed her, and then said in a disgusting voice:
"So why do you think I like to turn into a cat? It's so troublesome to talk!"
After saying that, Lily buried her head on her waist, acting like I was just a hair ball.
Snow couldn't help but smile at this and shook his head slightly.
…
After giving way many times, Snow's carriage finally arrived at its destination today - Senator Macht's home at No. 39 Burklund Street.
In fact, Snow was quite surprised by this invitation, because Congressman Macht's wife was not his client. In other words, the person who invited him this time was probably not Ms. Liana, but the real owner of this place.
, Maury Macht.
"I don't know what this gentleman wants to do with me." Snow slightly adjusted Lily's standing position before stepping out of the carriage. Elian immediately picked up the gift and followed him, following at the exact same pace.
back.
As a frequent visitor to such high-society dances, Snow controlled time extremely accurately. His arrival time was only one minute and twelve seconds later than the start time on the invitation. If necessary, he could arrive on time, but according to Lu
It is a custom to hold a banquet that it is better to be a little late than to be early.
However, it was only a minute late, and he was undoubtedly among the earlier ones among all the guests. When Snow walked through the door, the ballroom was obviously still empty.
Seeing Snow's arrival, Congressman Maury Macht, who was wearing an olive green Army uniform, an orange ribbon and several medals, immediately came up with his wife. This was different from Snow, who usually only received women.
The situation was different, but it also convinced him that this was not a routine job.
Realizing this, Snow did not observe Madam Liana's dress, but took the wine from the Hemelel Manor from Ilian and handed it to Congressman Macht——
"Sorry, I seem to be a few minutes late."
"It doesn't matter, the dance hasn't officially started yet." Councilor Macht glanced at the wine in his hand, a look of understanding flashed in his eyes, which made Snow a little strange.
Hemelier Manor is not a famous winery like Lafite or Bordeaux in its previous life. It is just a mid-range brand produced in East Chester County. The reason why Snow chose this bottle of wine was just to pick up a bottle that met the requirements.
It's just wine for Luen's social etiquette (the first time he delivers domestic red wine to his door) - after all, he doesn't like drinking red wine very much, and the wine in his family's wine cellar is basically given by customers.
But what does this congressman mean when he sees the red wine?
Does Hemelaire red wine have other meanings?
But there was no knowledge left to him by the social terrorist in his predecessor!
Snow, who couldn't think clearly for a moment, didn't say anything more. He greeted Madam Liana according to the normal social process. However, it seemed that to avoid suspicion, the lady did not extend her right hand, and Snow did not.
To perform a kiss on the hand, just nod normally and praise:
"Your light makes the whole ball dazzling. "
"The same goes for your arrival." Madam Liana smiled slightly awkwardly, which made Snow more and more convinced that today's invitation seemed not simple.
"It can't be a blind date for Hazel, right? No one would ask a 'disreputable' person like me to go on a blind date, right? Or, I'm planning to find a private tutor for her daughter... I heard that because of this
Some noble families in Tis have such courses, has this trend spread to Loen?"
A strange idea came to Snow's mind, but he immediately shook his head, followed the etiquette left by his predecessor, suppressed his doubts and walked into the hall where the melodious melody was already playing.
"They didn't introduce their daughter to me. Well, it doesn't seem to be a blind date issue. Could it be that Macht is from the royal faction and learned about my relationship with Zhen Zhen from some channels?" Snow thought about it, and it seemed that this was the only thing he could think of.
This is a possibility, but this kind of thing is obviously not suitable for immediate inquiry. Seeing Congressman Macht leaving again to greet other guests, Snow casually walked around the hall and greeted several familiar ladies.
Then, a girl wearing a sky blue dress suddenly stood in front of him.
