Be a mermaid after 1000 years

Butler Shardy stared at Zoe Ives dumbfounded, and after a while he said, "Are you going to attend Her Majesty's dinner party like this?" Because he was so surprised, the orthodox butler even forgot to use his honorific title.

Didi stood aside, crying, and said, "I've tried to persuade you many times, but the young master just refuses to make up, dye his hair, or wear hair accessories."

Listen, Li Miaowei really wants to find someone with a normal mind to judge, young master, he still needs makeup, and he is not a ladyboy, even if he is a demon, he is also a fish demon. Could it be possible that he can dye his hair? From black fish to red koi?Everyone knows that he is still a black fish.

Li Miaowei saw the housekeeper bringing a large stack of boxes to his room, so he took the opportunity to change the subject and said, "Xiaerdi, what is that in your hand?"

Seeing that Li Miaowei noticed the things in his hands, the old butler was proud again, and pretended to be reserved: "Hey, it's nothing. Madam must dress decently when she goes to see Her Majesty the Queen. People in the Duke's Mansion are no better than those little doormen Xiaohu came out, and Xia Erdi found some old jewelry from the family, and the adults ordered, you can choose a few suitable ones to wear."

Although the jewelry brought by Chardy is not the best in the store, each piece has a history of hundreds of years, which can definitely amaze everyone, and it can be regarded as adding a little bit to Zoe Ives's ordinary background and appearance. It is not too embarrassing to be ostracized by the royal family, but if you really want to rebound from the Jedi, it is impossible. There is a saying that wearing a dragon robe does not look like a prince, and this is the truth.

Chardi would be so generous, or at the behest of the Duke, that Li Miaowei would let Li Miaowei choose some family heirlooms from the Hernand family. Standard, since your lord has spoken, even if the new lady wants everything greedily, he can accept it. Chardy has already considered it when choosing jewelry, leaving room for it.

He opened the first box and introduced: "This necklace is made by the famous jewelry designer Pato. It has a history of 130 years. It consists of 892 diamonds and three red diamonds with a total weight of 63 carats. Composed of spinel and a 22-carat pink diamond... Then there is this brooch, in which this drop-shaped sapphire weighs 49 carats. Although it does not look very big, it was a gift from the royal family more than 100 years ago , the color is also the most suitable for Madam's dress today..."

Xia Erdi's explanation only went on for a while, but was interrupted by Li Miaowei waving his hand: "No need, I have all these things."

Without waiting for the old housekeeper to react, he dug out a cloth bag from the depths of the drawer of the closet, opened the inner and outer layers, and revealed a crumpled handkerchief bag. Very familiar, Li Miaowei opened it first, and said proudly: "Look, I have a lot, and they are new. Oh, I almost forgot, this is a dowry gift from the Duke's Mansion."

The corners of Chardy's mouth twitched, and he glanced at the pile of 'bargains', thinking, this freshwater black fish would find a chance to settle old scores, this is a satire of the Duke's mansion for being stingy.

Li Miaowei saw that Xiaerdi wanted to say more, so he quickly straightened his face and said: "Housekeeper Xiaerdi, I really don't need it, I think it's good for me to be clean like this, I'm going to a family banquet, not Go compete with others for wealth or beauty, besides, do you think I am more noble and beautiful than those ocean mermaids when I wear these jewels?"

To be honest, Li Miaowei is quite satisfied with the dress that Didi chose for him. It is a quiet and elegant off-white color, and the two-inch wide belt is embroidered with light golden rose branches from top to bottom. Adding a lively and fragrant atmosphere, the round neckline and hem of the clothes are inlaid with a circle of white fur. Although it is still a bit feminine, it suits Zoe's appearance very well. He looks so small now, even if he wears it The heroic and mighty clothes will only look nondescript. Li Miaowei doesn't know how to match clothes. He just thinks that Zoe's black hair like a crow's feather and her round fair face make her look very comfortable in this dress. Make-up and hair dye again, but it's a bit overwhelming.

Chardy was stunned for a moment. He never expected that Li Miaowei would say that. It seemed that the other party was very clear about what might happen at the dinner party. Zoe Ives' insistence did not appear to be an act. The butler Zhang Opening his mouth, although he was very confused, he didn't continue to speak.

Depressedly, Didi took a pair of deerskin soft-soled boots from the shoe cabinet and waited for Li Miaowei to put them on. The master and servant followed Xiaer Di and went downstairs. The Duke will almost be back soon.

Seeing that the old housekeeper had already reached the corner of the stairs, Didi secretly gave Li Miaowei a hand, and complained softly, "Why did the young master refuse the antique jewelry that the Duke gave, those are very expensive, you can keep them by your side. "

Li Miaomiao looked at the butler Shardi who was far away from them, rolled her eyes, and followed Didi's example, sneakily said: "I am the master of the Duke's mansion now, not all the wealth of the Duke is complete." It’s mine, if that’s the case, why am I so stupid to pick only a few of them.”

When Didi heard this, he immediately stared at his young master. The young master is really getting smarter.

Butler Xia Erdi, who was walking in front, suddenly staggered and almost sprained his ankle.

Li Miaowei snickered, knowing that the old man had good ears.

When the three of them went downstairs, His Excellency the Duke had already returned. He was sitting in the living room reading a book and drinking tea. I don’t know if he called Dr. Ciro today. The housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief, he was still worried about this just now.

When Blanche heard the noise, he closed the book and raised his head. Li Miaowei's simple and low-key attire made him startled. It was so tight that he murmured in his ear for a while, and Xiaerdi, who was in a rage, naturally didn't even miss the part that he overheard at the stairs.

The duke's expression was slightly astonished at first, and then he frowned. The master and servant who came over there were whispering together, their brows and eyes were very vivid when they were talking, and there was a natural rosiness on their plain cheeks. Somehow, Blanche suddenly felt that his new wife seemed pretty.

When Blanche Hernand was staring at Li Miaowei, Li Miaowei also happened to look over. He naturally smiled at the Duke and greeted, "Your Excellency, you are back."

Those black eyes were full of water, full of spirits, I heard that black contains all colors, it seems to be true, Blanche saw a lot of bright and colorful things in it, but there was no calculation, His Excellency took a look The loyal old butler beside him seemed to have realized something.

He stood up, opened the boxes in Xia Erdi's hands one by one, took the sapphire brooch at last, walked over slowly and handed it to Li Miaowei, and said: "Whether you can get all my property in the future, accept it today." It’s the same, after all, we are going to the palace, so basic accessories are still needed.”

When the Duke spoke, his tone was lukewarm. It seemed to be teasing, but his attitude was serious. Didi was taken aback. He lowered his head and didn't dare to express himself. Li Miaowei was just a little embarrassed. He stared at Blanche's hand. After looking at his brooch for a while, he took it generously and pinned it on his chest, but he was secretly complaining, Nima, he has been in bad luck since he was a child, and when he went to the town to buy a popsicle, he counted seven cents Yes, he held on to the money tightly all the way, and after walking a few miles to the town, he only had six cents left. Putting such a valuable thing on his body was like holding a time bomb. If he loses it, he will not be able to sleep for a month. This thing is estimated to be worth more than 20 yuan. If you don't want it, you still have to give it to him. What kind of person is this!

"Okay, now that we're all ready, let's go," said the Duke.

"Oh, wait, I still have something to take." Li Miaowei almost forgot the most important thing, he jumped up and rushed into the kitchen.

Everyone in the living room was stunned. They had never seen a mermaid running so fast.

"Uncle Edson, let me get what we prepared this afternoon."

Edson was very hesitant when he handed the basket to him, and kindly advised: "Madam, is this suitable for Her Majesty the Queen? There is nothing in the palace. You don't need to give any gifts when you go to this kind of ordinary family gathering." of."

"How can I do that? Your Majesty the Queen is an elder after all. How can a younger generation go to visit an elder empty-handed for the first time? There is a saying in our place that is to send goose feathers from thousands of miles. The gift is light and the affection is heavy. Of course I know that Her Majesty has everything. , but this is my heart, well, I'll go first, thank you, uncle, see you later."

As soon as Li Miaowei came out of the kitchen, he was taken aback by the person standing at the door, "Your Excellency, you scared me to death. I've got my things and I'm ready to go."

Blanche looked at the basket in his hand, but said nothing.
