After the Legend Chapter 211: Jada’s Ball
Na was uncomfortably pulling at her dress and skirt, and she always felt that there was something strong
Winnie hurriedly grabbed her hand: "Don't move! Look how you kneaded the hem of your skirt? This material is so soft that you don't need to knead it!" Minna had to put down her hand embarrassingly, but looked Looking at herself in the mirror, she couldn't help but say, "Is the neckline too low? I don't like showing so much flesh!"
Marcy gave a small "Oh" before lowering her voice and whispering in her ear: "Ladies never say the word exposed flesh, Minna, you must remember" Minna immediately lowered her face /
Jenny held back her laughter and comforted her: "It's cool to wear this in summer, I'll get used to it soon, just show a little bit, what's this? What girl doesn't show off in a dress?" She was quite proud Human's chest: "I show more than you in normal clothes, and I don't feel uncomfortable!" Just after saying that, my aunt glared at me, stuck out her tongue, and turned her head to help Ming Na get the cloak
Winnie once again pulled down Minna's hand that wanted to cover her chest: "Be generous, just like the lady taught you! I, Winnie, have been a professional nanny for decades, and I have met a young lady. It's no surprise that we all dress like this! Listen to Winnie!"
Okay, since Winnie said so, Ming Na had to use the courage she used to perform in the security department, put on the noble and elegant style of Miss Daughter as much as possible, gently picked up the skirt and walked out. Immediately received two satisfied smiles from Winnie and Marcy
She walked into the living room and saw Alex sitting on the sofa, reading When the nobleman heard the footsteps, he raised his head, paused, and kept staring at Ming Na without making a sound
Ming Na panicked for a while: "Isn't it weird that I dress like this?" She knew it would be like this! Acquaintances will laugh when they see her dressed like this!
"No...beautiful" Alex took a deep breath and smiled, "I've never seen you so beautiful, like...like a fairy in Lake Maiton" He was a little fascinated Looking at her, her eyes don't move
Ming Na blushed a little, but she was still very happy: "Really? It's not strange at all? Ha! What is the fairy in the lake? Because the skirt is light blue and lake blue, and there are layers on top of it. Ya, it's just giving people this illusion!" She jumped over, not feeling that her actions were too damaging to her image
Alex was amused, looked at Ming Na a few more times, and smiled: "I guess...you must be very uncomfortable? You seem to have never worn a dress like this. I remember when you went to the May Festival last year. Maiton's Executive Auditorium attended the dance, wearing a heart-collared dress, and thought it was inconvenient to bend over because the collar was too low."
"That's right, you're so right!" Ming Na seemed to have found a confidant. "You have such a good memory that I almost forgot about that skirt. Now that I think about it, the skirt is really good. It doesn't look like this dress, although it's very good. Pretty but it always feels weird to have an empty chest"
Alex smiled and turned to Ming Na's back to pull up a strand of her hair that fell, and use the hairpin again. Don't look back. What?!" She suddenly felt that something was wrapped around her neck, and she looked down and saw that it was a necklace. The aquamarine gems were polished into an oval the size of half a thumb, and only gold was used. It is made of small hooks and connected to a whole piece that is heavy but it matches the face of the skirt.
The necklace has no pendant, but the body of the chain just covers the place where Minna feels most uncomfortable, making her relieved but a little uneasy: "You wouldn't want to give this to me, would you? The flame is too precious and I can't take this anymore"
"Don't worry, I'm just borrowing you to wear it." Alex's voice came from the back of his neck, and he exhaled hot breath. "This is an antique in my family's collection. Because I brought my aunt back home, my father gave this reward to Although it is very valuable, how can such beautiful jewelry be able to reflect its value if it can only be stored in a box? It just fits your skirt tonight, you can wear it, after all, I can't wear it on myself. right?"
Minna blushed when she heard this imagining Alex wearing this women's necklace and couldn't help laughing: "Okay, then I'll borrow it for one night. I'll be careful not to break it." After thinking about it, I untied the necklace and put it in the ring on my hand: "Wait until the venue to wear it so that I don't lose it on the way."
Alex smiled: "Okay that's okay..." He stretched out his hand to tidy up the back of her neck again
Ming Na felt his warm fingers gently touching her on the back of her head and neck, so gentle, as if she was treating a precious treasure, her heart could not help pounding, she turned her head in a panic Looking around, avoiding his fingers: "Where's Jenny? She said she wanted to bring the cloak for me, where did she go?"
Alex pulled back his hand with a smile and said nothing
Jenny ran out of the hall in a hurry: "Come on! The tie of this thing is knotted just now, and I'm sweating profusely." She handed over a silver-gray silk hooded cloak and asked, "Why Wearing this? It's so hot, and this dress is so beautiful that everyone should see it"
Minna
With the straps of her cloak, she said, "I'm going to ride over there. If I don't wear this, I'll look at Alex. She couldn't help but slow down her voice: "When are you going? "
"I'm going home with my father and brothers" Alex smiled lightly, "You also want to go to Cardo first? How about we meet at the venue?"
Minna smiled and nodded: "Okay"
Burley brought her horse, she carried her skirt on the side, and Jenny helped straighten the skirt, complaining: "Why don't you ride in a carriage? The ladies all ride in carriages"
"I want to go to my uncle's house first, the car is too slow, and besides, I like to ride a horse" Ming Na adjusted her posture, a little fortunate, because of her strong request, the skirt only lengthened to the ankle, although the sleeves had straps, But the length is acceptable. She has tried wearing this dress and dancing with a long sword, and her movement will not be restricted. If not, she will not accept this new dress
Looking back, she waved to Alex: "Then I'll go first, see you later, Alex"
The horse stepped forward gently, getting faster and faster, with a gust of wind, the light blue skirt swayed like a cloud, carrying Minna away from Alex's heart, and stepped forward He took a step and stretched out his hand, but soon he stopped, instead he waved to Ming Na, shouted "see you later" and put his hand down again, he smiled slightly
Some things, some people, don't need to be restrained
When I came to the mansion of Kaduo, two gorgeous carriages were already waiting for Xiao in the front yard... The adult male masters of Kaduo were dressed in formal clothes and were standing in front of the door chatting, while the female relatives were wearing Chinese clothes. Wearing jewelry and preparing to board the car
"Not too late, not too late" Elon smiled and signaled his son to get on the horse, "The time is just right, get on the car"
Minna responded and was about to get off the horse when a valet ran over and squatted on the side of the horse, ready to act as her foot. She wanted to jump off the horse to avoid it, but suddenly found that the valet was Corbyn , was stunned
"Hurry up?! Do you want us to wait for you?!" Lilith knocked on the window frame impatiently, Minna took a deep breath, and stomped on Corbyn's back, the latter couldn't bear it. Earning almost fell to the ground, Ming Na immediately jumped to the ground, turned around and said coldly: "Are you trying to fall on me? If you don't have the strength, don't run over. Do you think I will reward you with money?!"
Corbyn shuddered and fell on the ground, not daring to say anything. The housekeeper hurried over to scold him, but Ming Nali ignored him and got into the carriage behind.
Only Beryl was on the carriage. Lilith took her second daughter Manda and her youngest son Feld in the front car. Beryl was wearing a lake dress, holding a high bun and wearing only two or three simple jewelry. He looks noble and dignified, but he is still cold, nodding to his cousin and looking out the window
Ming Na was not interested in talking to her either, so she closed her eyes and rested
When Kaduo's carriages arrived at the ball venue, the night sky was already full of stars outside the city hall where the ball was being held. There were nearly a hundred carriages crowded together. With the help of the patrol team, the order was finally arranged. Most of the guests had to walk across the street in fancy clothes in order to make their way to the dance, causing pedestrians to crowd around
This is the embarrassment for Nuojia. The embassy they opened in East is still in the planning stage and has not yet been selected, and the east wing of the palace where the embassy lives cannot be used for reception of non-royal families. The member's guests, so the mission finally chose to rent the city auditorium
It was the place where the commoners and merchants of Ito City held a grand banquet. As long as they registered and paid enough rent, anyone could use it, but for the ball hosted by Duke Noga, some Not too big and not enough room for so many horses and carriages
Caduo's carriage was blocked more than 100 meters away from the auditorium, and Mrs. Lilith, who was of noble birth, refused to get out of the car and "crossed the street with her skirt like a commoner", and even on the road The dust would stain her fancy clothes, Yilong couldn't convince her, so she had to accompany her family and wait for the patrol members to clear the traffic
When the family finally came to the front of the auditorium, it was nearly half an hour later. The women took off their cloaks and handed them over to the attendants on the sidelines. Ming Na also took the opportunity to put the necklace on
Manda is wearing a bright blue dress. The style is very different from what she used to wear in the past. It is elegant and dignified. With the high bun and a few pieces of jewelry, it adds a bit of elegance to her
Lilith pickly arranged the clothes and hairstyle for the second daughter, and whispered again and again: "Keep your head up, keep smiling, think about it clearly, and there are many nobles coming today, you must let them see that you are How noble and elegant, how suitable for the second prince, rest assured, now that Fan A has a new saint, no one will force you to go again"
Manda took a deep breath and nodded insincerely
Elon urged from the front: "Come on, the dance seems to have started"
"Got it" Lilith turned her head to check on the other children, when she saw that Minna was wearing a blue dress, she stared a few times, and then found the necklace she was wearing: "This... I've heard of it. Isn't this the collection of the Mandhelings?!"
Minna Zhe: "You mean
Chain? Because I don't have jewelry to match with my skirt, so Alex]T what's wrong with me? "
Lilith pursed her lips tightly and stared straight at the necklace, until her husband urged her again, she reluctantly took her daughter into the auditorium hall
They were really late. In the hall, Duke Jada, as the host, and the second prince, Selig, as the guest of honor, were wrapping up their opening remarks
Jeda raised the glass and said loudly to all the guests: "...For the friendship between our two countries, and for the smooth cooperation in the future, let us toast together, to the honorable King of East Walfred. His Majesty the Third..." and then smiled at Selig next to him, "and our wise and handsome His Royal Highness Selig"
Everyone was excited, and they raised their glasses and shouted toast, but Selig did not respond at all. He looked straight at the door, and the long-lost shadow was already crazy
Ming Na found that Manda was parked in front of her and didn't go. She looked up and saw that she was looking straight at the people on the stage, tears in her eyes, she almost couldn't help but pounce on her, only to be caught by her sister Bailey. I didn't do this because I was making money.
Selig had been staring at Manda, excited for a while. He didn't notice that Duke Jada had called him twice. The minister behind him noticed something was different, and hurriedly bumped him secretly before he woke up. Come here, reluctantly smile and raise your glass in response
Jada didn't care, she still had a smile on her face, but only after announcing the beginning of the dance did she walk to the hall and ask who was the person who entered the door just now
Manda looked at Selig, who was talking to other nobles, and was a little disappointed. In the past, he would come to her at the first time, but she also knew that he was doing serious business, and she could not prevent him from taking it. Grabbing a glass of fruit wine, she turned around and whispered, "Sorry, mother, sister, I want to be alone"
Lilith was urging Beryl to say hello to Hubert who was standing nearby, and when she heard Manda's words, she grabbed her: "What are you doing?! Have you forgotten your task tonight? Please cheer me up! There are several ladies over there who are my friends, and you and I go over to chat with them and their husbands are all important ministers who are trusted by the king!"
Minna watched Lilith drag a few children to meet her "friends" and felt a little bored, so she didn't keep up. She looked around, looking for Alex's figure, and soon, in the crowd Found him at this moment, as if aware of her gaze, Alex turned his head, met her eyes, and smiled slightly
Ming Na responded with a smile and motioned him to come over with her eyes. He glanced at the father next to him, indicating that she could not go there for the time being. She had to accept it, and quietly pointed to the sofa behind the curtain. He nodded.
"Are you saying hello to Quan?" Viscount Mandheling noticed the abnormality of his youngest son, followed his line of sight, froze, took a deep breath, still with a very elegant smile on his face, said The surrounding guests signaled, but whispered in their mouths: "Why are you still hanging out with that little girl? You..."
"Father, their family is not considered our family's enemy now?" Alex stared at the wine in the glass, "Didn't you promise your aunt the day before yesterday that you would reconcile with their family?"
Viscount Mandheling sighed: "This... has been fighting for decades, do you think it's so easy to reconcile?!" As soon as he saw the necklace on Ming Na's chest, he could no longer maintain his face. He smiled: "What is that?! I clearly told you to give the necklace to Princess Sarah! She likes this face the most! How do you give that girl?!"
Alex said casually: "That face matches her dress very well~IndoMTL.com~ And you said, that's my reward? I like it, right? If you If you want to send jewelry to Her Royal Highness Princess Sarah, you can send Ai directly without going through me”
"You..." Viscount Mandheling was almost at a loss when he was greeted by someone. He finally swallowed his breath, put on a smile again, and greeted the person: "It's been a long time, I haven't seen you, How are you doing?"
Alex took the opportunity to retreat into the crowd
At this time, Ming Na was invited by her cousin Bevan to her uncle's family. There was a high-ranking noble official who was very enthusiastic about introducing them to the master, Duke Jada, calling them "the descendants of epic heroes" /
A very strange feeling rose in Ming Na's heart, looking at Jada's somewhat unfamiliar smiling face, she tried her best to play the role of an unremarkable aristocratic daughter, saluted him with her cousins, and then revealed A decent smile
But unexpectedly, Jada stopped her: "You... I'm sorry, have I seen you somewhere? You make me feel very indifferent"
Ming Na was taken aback, and smiled hurriedly: "When you entered the city that day, I once stood on the side of the road to welcome your envoy. Maybe you saw me at that time?"
"No...no" Although Jada recognized her as the girl from that day, the familiarity was not caused by this aspect
Minna maintains a decent smile, confident that he will never think she is Mintel's
But suddenly, she remembered something that made her panic and sweat on her forehead
(Guess what?)
