Master and his butler Mr.

When they got back to the hotel, they happened to meet Mr. Fermont and Luo coming out of the room.

"Thank you for your generosity." Hiernandez greeted with a smile, "I had a great time hunting today."

"I just received an invitation. Earl Katie will hold a dance at the Honeysuckle Palace tonight. Are you interested in going to see it?" Mr. Fermont sent out the invitation, and Mr. Hernandez, the housekeeper, nodded and readily agreed.

To be honest, Hirnandez has never seen a ball when he was growing up. Mountbatten is a small place, and there are no lively husbands and wives nearby. He really only saw such a big scene as a ball in books.

The almighty Mr. Housekeeper conjured a well-fitting dress and boots out of nowhere. Hernandez put on a white turtleneck shirt and a sky blue long coat, with a beautiful silver brooch pinned to the lapel , dark blue leggings and suede pointed boots, and his blond hair has been well-groomed. The bumpkin from the countryside has finally turned into a handsome young aristocrat.

"You look very handsome," said the butler, "and this dress suits you very well."

Hernandez thanked shyly.

They followed Mr. Fairmont in a carriage. On the way, Luo briefly introduced Earl Carty to Hernandez and the others: "That is a gentleman who likes balls very much. It is said that there are ten balls here. He held six shows in the [-]s, and his elegant taste and unique insight made him very much sought after by gentlemen and wives."

It seems that this person is still very important in the local social scene.

Honeysuckle Palace is one of the Seriu Palaces. Its scale is not particularly large, but the overall theme of the palace is honeysuckle flowers, which is very popular among unmarried ladies and gentlemen.

When Hernandez and the others arrived, many carriages had already parked outside the palace, and from time to time, stylishly dressed gentlemen and ladies entered the ball hall under the service of servants, and cordial greetings came from the door from time to time, creating a harmonious atmosphere. .

Luo glanced at Hernandez and told him quietly: "We still have a spare carriage here. If you want to leave early, just tell the coachman. You don't have to wait for us. I have already told the coachman."

Hernandez nodded suspiciously.

Mr. Fermont handed over the invitation and led several people into the ball hall.

"It's so beautiful here!" Hernandez exclaimed.

This palace is not too big, but it is extremely beautiful. The entire hall is dominated by pure white and pistil yellow, with light and soft light green added, just like a blooming honeysuckle flower, delicate and delicate, with a touch of dreamy color.Every detail in the hall is also embellishing the theme here. The honeysuckle flower crystal lamp hangs above the head, exuding soft light, the honeysuckle flower tassel on the tablecloth of the long table, the honeysuckle flower-shaped plate, wine glass and even small snacks, everywhere It's the fine details.

"Here...it seems to cost a lot of money." Hiernandez secretly sighed in Mr. Butler's ear.

Mr. Butler nodded and frowned slightly.

"What's wrong?" Hernandez asked sharply.

"It's nothing, maybe I'm thinking too much." Mr. Butler replied.

However, soon something embarrassing for Hernandez happened.

"Are you the new Sir Mountbatten?" A lady approached suddenly and asked.

Hernandez nodded politely.

"Ah, I guessed it. There are not many young and handsome bachelors like you," the lady laughed. "My husband is Baron Clava. I heard about you yesterday, and I know that your home is not far from us." far away."

She beckoned not far away: "I have two daughters, both young and beautiful girls, and they are looking forward to your coming as a guest."

Hernandez looked in the direction of her finger. There were two girls standing there, one in a pink dress and the other in a lavender dress. Seeing him looking over, they both smiled shyly at him.

The other lady who came from behind was much more straightforward, she led a slender and tall girl and walked over directly: "Sir Mountbatten, welcome to Seleu, we are also your neighbors, we live just a short distance from you A block away from the house, this is my youngest daughter, Charlotte."

The girl graciously curtsied to him, and Hernandez could only bow to him. At this moment, the music of the ball started. According to common sense, he should invite the girl to dance at this time. If you like it, there is no problem even doing two dances.

However, regardless of whether Hiernandez is willing or not, the most practical problem is that he can't dance...

Hernandez stared at the girl in embarrassment, and then left in embarrassment.

The ladies here are so enthusiastic, it's overwhelming!Hernandez dodged in a panic for a while, and even Mr. Housekeeper didn't know where he went. Fortunately, he finally found a remote and quiet corner, and tried to fill his stomach with a few snacks.

At least the food here is not bad. Hernandez tossed the flower-shaped snacks into his mouth, chewed and swallowed hard, but he didn't swallow them all, and he almost choked again.

He seemed to have overheard other people's conversations by accident - although not on purpose, and the content of the conversation seemed to be related to him.

"Natalian, you silly girl, a good marriage always takes the initiative to come to fruition," probably a lady was teaching her daughter, "In today's marriage market, bachelors with a good income like that are in high demand." goods."

"That's a country nobleman, and she looks extremely rude," the girl retorted angrily, "Look at Charlotte, she's so embarrassed that you can make people laugh until next winter."

"The country nobles are the ones who can control them, and I heard that he is the only one left in their family. As long as you marry him, you will be the mistress of the Mountbatten family! I heard that his annual income is [-] pounds, which is enough for you to run a decent business." Get married, and live a prosperous life," the lady said, "You know, there are no more than a dozen bachelors in Seleu with titles and good incomes, but unmarried girls can form an army!"

"It's not that exaggerated," the girl muttered. "Aren't there so many good single guys, they look much more interesting than that country bumpkin."

"My dear girl," the lady said earnestly, "I don't have enough property to hire a servant. Would you like your youth and beauty to be wasted by housework like that? Look at your hands, how white and tender, don't you?" Good for washing and working."

"Okay, okay, I'll try, I hope that country bumpkin won't be too disgusting." The girl said reluctantly.

No, thank you.Hernandez silently swallowed the snack in his mouth, feeling bored in his heart.
