"The count is not, it's just." Paris, a small talker, couldn't speak clearly, "in short, I don't like the count very much."

Paris must have said something, which may not have anything to do with Penasson, but it will have something to do with others.

This world belongs to nobles, but specifically, it belongs to noble men. Even if women are nobles, in many cases, they cannot guarantee their own interests. You must have a class status, and you must have a strong father and brother to be good. protect you.

So it is no wonder that everyone wants to have a boy, so that a man can protect the rights of the family and female relatives as much as possible.

At the dance a few days later, Abigail and Louis danced a few more dances after the opening dance, then said she was tired and went back to her seat.

Paris was so young that no one invited her to dance, she was sullen and talked about wanting to grow up quickly.

"Growing up is not necessarily a good thing. Your father and brother love you, and you can be a happy single girl at home for several years."

"But my mother said that girls should not marry too late, otherwise there will be no good husband candidates."

"That depends on what you think."

"Me, don't worry about getting married or not. I want to dance and fall in love with some cute boy. Ma'am, what do you think of Earl Lance?"

Abigail didn't expect Paris's eyes to be so strange, "What are you talking about?"

"I know he is good-looking and has the same status as my family. He is an earl. As long as he leaves Notre Dame, he will be a marquis in the future." Paris sighed, very sad, "He always wants to go back to Spain, but I don't even speak Spanish"

Abigail laughed, she was thinking a lot

"I want to know if he has a fiancée in Spain, ma'am, can you ask for me?"

See, that's the good thing about being a married woman, it seems like young girls have absolutely no memory of her being 17 yet.

"Go and call him over."

Paris jumped up happily and hurried away.

Adrian was still brought in by Philip and the Knight of Lorraine.

His appearance is not inferior to that of His Royal Highness, even more beautiful than His Royal Highness, and he is very shy. The wives like him very much, and they deliberately tell dirty jokes in front of him, making him want to run away but don't know what to do. How can I run away? Fortunately, Paris came to invite him, saying that his wife wanted to see him.

In any case, he felt that he still needed to thank Mrs. Provence for helping him leave those ladies.

"You're welcome." Abigail almost couldn't hold back a laugh. Paris said in her ear that he was so embarrassed at the time.

His skin is fair, with a blushing pink on his face, which can be regarded as "shy".Good-looking, even if she is shy, she doesn't think there is any problem.As long as he doesn't try to "save" her, then she can tolerate him because of his pretty face.

"Count Lance, how old are you?"

"17 is old."

"You are so young, what month is your birthday"

"October."

That is, just turned 17 years old, only 6 months older than her.

"Where do you live"

"On the outskirts of Madrid."

"Who else is in your family"

"Father, mother, 3 younger sisters."

"Do you have many cousins?"

"Not many, my father has only one younger sister, and my aunt's family has five cousins."

"Why don't you dance"

"I don't know your court dance."

"Easy to learn, Paris, you teach the Count."

Adrian suddenly found that he couldn't refuse, so he had to dance with Paris.He is indeed not familiar with the steps of the court dance. He always makes mistakes at the beginning, but he can keep up with others' steps in the middle of the dance.

Not bad, I can see that he is a smart kid, besides, the Spanish court dance is not very different from the French court dance, but France is the birthplace of the fashion, and Spain is still dancing the French court dance a few years ago.

At the end of the dance music, Adrian sent Paris back, and Paris sat on the small chair next to the footstool, blushing and very excited.

"Madam, please ask him quickly." She urged anxiously.

Abigail then asked, "Earl Lance, you haven't told me what you're going to do in the future, will you go home?"

Adrian didn't want to answer the question, and replied "Why don't you go dancing, madam"

Louis was dancing with a young lady who looked familiar but couldn't remember who it was.

"Paris, who is His Majesty dancing with?"

"It's a certain Marquise, I'll ask." Paris walked away.

Adrian also looked at the king, frowning slightly, but quickly relaxed.

"Can you dance now?"

"Yes."

"Aren't you inviting me?"

Adrian felt as if he could invite her, so he bowed slightly to her, "How do you do, Madame de Provence, would you like to dance with me?"

Abigail put her hand in his and stood up.

Dancing is a wonderful entertainment, especially if your partner is a beautiful boy.

Adrian is probably also a person who knows how to look at the occasion, and he will not be annoying at the dance. After all, Philip is more willful than Louis. He is a child who will turn against his friends without saying a word. Well, if Adrian really doesn't understand the occasion and is the chairman of the ethics committee everywhere, no matter how handsome he is, he will be disgusted by Philip.

When Philip lived to be 18 and a half years old, he was most afraid of two things, no money to play and no one to play.

Thinking of this, Abigail was very curious whether he was the chairman of the ethics committee only for her, or if he disliked all behaviors that did not conform to the teaching

"Count, look at the lady over there, the one in the pink dance dress, her husband is behind her, that is the very thin half-bald man, talking to her is her lover of many years, everyone Knowing that the lady's youngest child is the child of her lover, the husband tolerated his wife and accepted her lover, and sometimes even played cards and hunted with her lover. What do you think of this disgraceful extramarital incident?"

Adrian instinctively thought that this question was not easy to answer, and his wife would not ask him such a thing out of nowhere.He replied cautiously, "This is something that is not allowed in the doctrine. The husband is cowardly, the wife is shameless, and the lover is despicable."

"Then, will you write to that lady to dissuade her from humiliating her husband?"

"Why did I write a letter to persuade her?" Adrian said in surprise, "This matter should be taken care of by her parish priest."

"You are not my vicar, why should you meddle in my business?"

He was tongue-tied and unable to answer.After a long time, I struggled to say, "I don't want to see you go astray."

"Have you thought about what I said since you went back last time?"

"I thought about it."

"What are you thinking about"

"I forgot." He played a rogue.

Abigail laughed all of a sudden, "You're so funny." She's just a brat with some problems in her mind, as long as she doesn't have a convulsion to be the chairman of the ethics committee, she can still let the past go.

Adrian blushed again, thinking why Madam asked.He really couldn't remember what he was thinking.

He was a little complicated, Madam had a beautiful smile, she was young and beautiful and understood her own charm, he had only seen this kind of girl in his life.She also has a good personality, he thought, if she married a man like her father, she would definitely not wrong herself and live a good life.

He clearly knew the difference between Mrs. Provence and his mother's aunt. He hated her a little bit, but not for herself, but for why his mother and aunt had such a miserable life.This is not actually "hate", but a kind of resentment, and the main target is neither the mother who died young, nor the aunt who was embarrassed and angry, nor Abigail, but his father.

Once he figured this out, he hated his father even more.If he has to go home to inherit the family business in the future, then he also hopes that the later the better, it is best to make his father suffer from headaches every day, and be half angry

To Abigail's surprise, Earl Penasson only invited Ansley to dance out of politeness.

Ansili was so depressed that she didn't dare to say anything, so she could only be depressed by herself.

Abigail saw Ansili's father talking to Penasson, and after talking for a few minutes, he left angrily.

Alas, Ansili's marriage seems to be in jeopardy again.

Ansili's father hinted before that he wanted Claude to date Ansili, but Claude didn't like Ansili either.An Sili's appearance is indeed not beautiful, but a 167-year-old girl is not ugly at all, at least she can be pretty.Even a slightly fat body is nothing in the Louvre, after all, everyone regards plumpness as beauty.She has been complained by those ladies and ladies for being too thin, and she didn't get close to fullness until after pregnancy, and she didn't gain much weight, after all, the weight was added to her belly.

"That can't be helped. Otherwise, I'll ask him again in a few days. If he clearly expresses that he doesn't like you, you can only wait." Abigail said softly.

Ansili nodded in frustration.

"Let your father" This is indeed a bit of a headache, mainly because the social circle is so large in this era, if the girl's own conditions are not very good, it is difficult to marry a husband with better conditions in all aspects.However, the standard can be lowered. If you are willing to marry the baron or the son of the baron, there should still be many candidates. "Let your father find some more possible candidates. Fortunately, you can marry again in a few years."

"Father asked me to see you. You were married at the age of 16, and he was worried that I would not be able to get married by the age of 20."

I'm not a good role model.

"My situation is quite special, so I can't be used as a standard. Or, look at the princess."

"The princess has her own title and fief, so she doesn't have to worry about not being able to get married." An Sili seemed to understand it very well, "If I have such a large sum of money, I won't worry about it."

The author has something to say that many people are very concerned about the recent discussion on the divorce cooling-off period in the Civil Code, and I have time to discuss this issue in a few days. ,,
