Chapter 42 42 Attending the Banquet

*

Adalberto Estate.

Seven years ago, this was just a farm that had been abandoned for a long time due to poor management by the farmer.

But after it was purchased by Julio Adalberto, in the past few years, it has been transformed into a luxurious manor that can accommodate a thousand people at one time.

While the scene is prosperous, even the previously abandoned land has been reclaimed, and a large number of flower fields of great ornamental value and a huge green plant maze have been planted.

In normal times, there are only a small number of slaves, servants and an old housekeeper to take care of everything in this manor, ensuring that the owner of the manor can keep his manor clean and decent even if he does not live here for a long time.

And tonight, it finally came into use again.

All kinds of gorgeous carriages streamed into the manor along the field roads.

Nobles in gorgeous costumes stepped out of carriages, served by servants.

Among them were many young and beautiful women, as well as elegant and noble women, dressed in extremely luxurious silks and satins. Amid people's exclamations, they walked into the manor with the servants responsible for welcoming the guests.

A dark carriage slowly followed the path of the field and stopped in front of the manor.

"Don't be like this, are you a pervert? That girl looks so young... I guess she's only 14 or 5 years old? You're old enough to be her dad, don't be shameless."

But not only the men, but also the ladies who had not yet entered the manor were talking about it.

"Hey, I'm just thinking about it. There's no need to go so far, right?! It's like you don't like it..."

A bright red top embroidered with butterfly flowers in silver pattern, underneath a long skirt embroidered with white magnolia in cloud color. Large red begonias are embroidered on the tail. The flowers and leaves are not complicated, but lifelike. The waist is tightened, and a hanging

A hollow silver bell jingles as you walk, carrying youthful publicity and liveliness.

"Oh my God, I admit it, but girls, don't just stare at that young girl. Take a look at the boy coming down behind. He looks very cute too, doesn't he?"

"It would be great if I could invite her to dance at the banquet later."

"I felt like I fell in love with her at first sight...she is so beautiful."

The expressions of everyone present showed astonishment.

"He is here to attend the banquet on behalf of Chief Ute, a distinguished guest from a foreign country." The coachman calmly accepted the silver coins handed over by the old butler and put them into his arms. While showing a satisfied look, he also whispered what he had learned.

Things to know.

But compared to the men, they are more concerned about why the girl's skin is so good, why the material of the clothes is as light as bird feathers, and why her body smells like flowers...

The person who came down first was a girl with a beautiful face.

"Oh my God, have you seen that young lady? Her skin looks incredible, like... clouds in the sky... I can't even see the pores on her face!"

The young gentlemen and ladies of the same age wanted to get acquainted with these two guests who were said to be from foreign countries.

"What you say is getting more and more exaggerated..."

Having said this, the coachman stopped talking and took out a dark red invitation and handed it to the old butler. Then he jumped out of the carriage, straightened his clothes, and respectfully opened the door of the back seat.

, said loudly: "We have arrived at our destination, please, Miss Ji, Mr. Li."

The acquaintances of the gentlemen gathered together to discuss and speculate on the identity of the young lady who was so beautiful that people dared not look directly at her.

After all, the age and appearance of these two people seemed too young to them. Although they were so good-looking that they were eye-catching, but because of their undeveloped facial features, these ladies and ladies could not help but feel uneasy.

Loving.

"Oh, look, look at me, I just noticed that girl's dress, it's so beautiful, it makes me want to travel to their country, but you're right, honey, look at her

That naughty look, oh, it would be great if my stupid brother could be half as cute as him..."

Oh, yes, and the style and pattern of her skirt. Oh my God, why does it look so romantic, elegant, and charming?

"And her clothes... My God, I have never seen fabrics made of that kind of material. They look so light and the style is very special. Is it a style unique to her country?"

The logo on the car that belonged to the military department attracted the attention of the butler, so after apologizing to the other guests one by one, he quickly ran to the black carriage, handed over a silver coin in a vague manner, and asked with a low eyebrow.

He said: "Welcome to Adalberto Manor, distinguished sir, who is the gentleman in the car..."

"But I'm not as perverted as you. I don't even let children go..."

"Seriously, I also want to try to invite this lady." Another gentleman also echoed: "Even if you are rejected, it is worth talking to her."

The last one to jump off the carriage was a young "boy".

"Yes, and the pattern looks so special, especially when she walks, she looks so soft and elegant. I'm even afraid that she might fly in the next second."

Even though the weird dresses they were wearing were of a style they had never seen before, they still couldn't help but feel amazed and fascinated.

"You know, Chief Ute has been preoccupied with matters at the Freifans border recently, and has no intention of attending this kind of banquet where the nobles greet each other. It just so happens that these young men and ladies from foreign aristocratic families are not interested in the banquet of the nobles of our country.

I was interested, so Chief Ute just followed the trend..."

"Then it's probably out of the question. I've seen your younger brother. He's not ugly, but he's a little too stupid. He looks stupid..."

However, compared to the former's gorgeousness, his clothes look relatively elegant.

She has long, thin eyebrows, pretty almond eyes, and a bright red peach blossom petal between her eyebrows, which is breathtakingly beautiful.

Of course, there are also a few people who have evil intentions and don't want to see the good things in others.

Some people are curious, some are envious, but there is no jealousy...

"Oh, my God, have you seen that young lady? She is so beautiful. What do you think...whose girl could she be?"

Wearing a half-black and half-white robe rich in ink-style embroidery, a dark green jade pendant hangs around the waist, and a wooden fan is pinned to the waist. The phoenix eyes are narrow and pretty, but the eyes are as clear as a clear spring.

He has a smiling look, full of the clarity of a young man.

They are accustomed to being hypocritical, but they will not stupidly expose their malice so nakedly. Instead, they suppress those dirty thoughts in their hearts, hide in dark places, and peek at those beautiful things with sticky eyes, like

Like a poisonous snake, waiting for the right moment to strike.

"It's a fat sheep."

"Ah, it's a fat sheep."

I'm really not good at writing pretense about appearance. Although this chapter doesn't have many words and is very stilted, it really stuck with me all afternoon.
