Chapter 21: Private Banquets
"It's really a bit rude today, some business things failed to entertain a few guests, there is a loss of identity, please don't be surprised. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
After dinner, Prince Abdul invited Su Yishui and the other four to his room, dressed in a white veil, with a turban around his head, his fingers pinching his beard, and his swarthy face reflecting a smiling face.
Ibn the butler, Wallace, and Nikita, the little princess, were all present at the prince's private banquet.
Snacks, fruits, all kinds of refreshments, coffee, black tea and all kinds of snacks were placed on the ground, and everyone sat on the ground.
The layout of the room was different from that of Nikita and the others, the prince's room was very large, very deep, but the furniture was relatively small, except for some yellow pear furniture and carved panels, a rocking chair, a computer and a Persian tapestry, a small non-slip blanket and a coffee table, there was nothing else, compared to his identity, it seemed a little shabby.
The only bright spot appeared on the ground, and the floor was all neatly paved with square bricks, showing the usual color of the royal family, the local tyrant gold, and a few pieces in the middle of the square bricks formed a royal shield to show their extraordinary identity.
As always, the Prince's wife did not attend this private banquet, and Su Yishui did not think it was strange, the imprisoned idea of abiding by filial piety has always been throughout, and it seems that the prince can already be said to be able to let Nikita attend.
"We are very grateful for your hospitality, Prince, but there is a little thing I need to ask for. Su Yirou said between eating and drinking.
"Miss Su, but it's okay to ask, it's only a quarter past six, and we'll be fine tomorrow, and it's okay to talk until the second half of the night." β
"Then I asked. She glanced at her sister, as if she was getting her sister's support, and after receiving encouragement from Su Yishui's firm eyes, she said the doubts in her heart.
"That is, why should the servants and stewards be around us while we are eating? In the evening, too, I felt very uncomfortable, and I didn't even eat the tomato salad and dessert. β
"I'm down, sister. You're not going to ask that, are you? Su Yishui stabbed her.
"This is a knot in my heart, sister, I'll talk about other things later. The latter muttered quietly.
"Hehe, if Miss Su is not used to it, I can order them to remove. Ibn. You're going to let everyone know tomorrow before dinner so they don't show up, and you're too, you know?"
"Yes, Prince. β
"But why? Watching other people eat seems to be a little... It's hard to talk about. β
"Miss Su, I'm afraid this is the difference between a master and a servant, and besides, there are many things that need to be done when eating, such as. Facial tissues, adding food or there is an accident, such as a wine glass knocked over, or other emergencies, and the etiquette of the meal is required like this, the host must finish eating after sitting in the position to stand up, leaving the table in the middle is not allowed, so you can understand it. β
"Oh, I see. Then I'll try to adapt. β
"Prince, our two young ladies live together and don't know these etiquette knowledge. Don't mind. Zhao Lingling said with a smile.
"How can it be? These are traditional European etiquette that has been passed down to us, and it didn't have to be so troublesome before. Hehe, Ms. Zhao, why are you so polite. β
"Now, then, since I have spoken, let me ask the question that is in my mind, Prince. What is going on with the recruitment of our two little girls, although this matter seems to be over, we also want to know the details, can you tell us?" Zhao Lingling replaced Su Yirou and raised her questions.
"Actually, I haven't had time to apologize to you about this incident, oh, no, no, it seems that it is not sincere enough to apologize, I should say that I would like to express my deepest apologies. The reason is because you have confused your appearance with the current quasi-prince and concubine. β
"Huh? That's too far-fetched. "Su Yishui almost screamed, a little European girl and our twin sisters, a little girl about ten years old and a pair of young girls, can be confused, and it is not so far-fetched to make up nonsense.
"Ah, oh, that's what happened. β
"Yes, didn't we have a relationship on the Starlight Jewel at that time, so the list and photos were also confused when the statistics were counted, and Wallace's quasi-fiancΓ©e is a descendant of European Asian descent again, and her appearance is also Oriental appearance, it should be of Chinese blood, and your appearance is very close, now there is not a kind of called, ah yes, yes, precocious, if you only look at the facial features, you are really close, and Ibn was confused with the appearance and name, and he confused the passenger list on the Starlight Jewel with her name at that time, so there was this kind of accidentWhen I heard it, I also thought that this Su Qiaoyi was also a pair of twins, and it caused such a big error, I was busy dealing with business and hotel matters yesterday and this morning, and I didn't have time to say sorry to you, and now I apologize to you. β
"Oh Prince, you are too humble, this kind of thing is not a big deal. Isn't it?" Zhao Lingling played a round on the side, and winked at the two sisters at the same time.
A dignified prince of an emirate apologized to a pair of young girls, even if it is a small official with a sesame mung bean, he has to give some face, let alone a prince, not to mention doing business with others.
Sure enough, the two sisters were both smart at this time, and they were flattering, and some of the words were half positive and half derogatory, and the prince and others could not hear them, and the five thousand years of accumulated cultural and linguistic history made it impossible for you to understand the words, so the prince was almost lifted to the sky, and everyone in the room was happy.
In the interval between the conversations, Su Yishui tentatively asked the prince for a photo of Su Qiaoyi, and immediately got a reply, the prince obviously had anticipated the plans of the two sisters, and took out a photo of a girl from his body and handed it over.
Take a closer look, it's really surprisingly similar, the same melon seed face, delicate facial features, white and tender skin, the girl wears false eyelashes, poses a victory, closes one eye, and the other is wide open. Facing the camera and making a puffy mouth, if you don't look carefully, especially with the long-haired Su Yirou, there is really a resemblance of eight or nine points.
Since you want to find the crown princess. Why do you want such a photo that is easy to cause misunderstanding? Su Yishui looked at the photo, quite speechless, whether it is a space or a blog, there should be a lot of it, and there is also a computer in the prince's room, can it be. This person is a realist, or is he computer illiterate.
None of this was known, and she didn't want to know, but the important thing was that the question was now solved, although it was a bit far-fetched at first, and now it seemed very reasonable, especially after looking at the photos, and at the same time, Ibn also carried the black cauldron. It is difficult for a housekeeper to mistake a list and a person's name, even if the surname is the same, and the pronunciation of the following Chinese characters is completely different, whether it is pinyin or romanization, how much courage it takes to make a mistake.
Forget it, it's not much value to worry about these things.
"I should be thankful, in fact, I should say it, my daughter Nikita has been very sullen since a long time ago, and today I go out with you to go shopping, Ibn and the maid reflected. The little princess rarely bloomed, which surprised me. As Prince Abdul spoke, he reached to the side and touched his daughter's head.
Nikita, dressed in black veil, seemed cold, but she didn't hide from her father's big hand. Ren Qi put it on his head and patted it a few times, his face hidden under the black veil looked expressionless, and only when he looked at the two sisters and Lin did a smile appear from between the corners of his eyes.
"This little Lori is Lynn. The prince looked at Lin with a bright expression.
"Yes. Lynn replied briefly.
"Lynn, you have a good relationship with Nikita. The two young ladies too, Nikita rarely has such a happy time, I also know, she has been suppressing her mood because of some unhappy things, I want to think, oh yes, in your Chinese language it is called rebellion, yes, it should be this word, in fact, I also know what she thinks, when you take Nikita out today, her dress and the expression on her face, the maids have already explained to me. β
Su Yishui's heart is not good, is this a precursor to blame? Her eyes glanced at Ibn who was standing on the other side, and from his eyes there was also a look of nervousness but pretending to be relaxed, and Zhao Lingling, who was next to her, had an indifferent look, probably because she was the oldest and oldest here, she didn't seem to take the middle-aged man opposite seriously at all, and just took care of herself and tasted Blue Mountain coffee.
"Well, even my wife feels very depressed about this kind of thing, you must have seen her. β
"Yes, I had the pleasure of meeting you today. β
"You've noticed the names of my son and daughter, it's a little weird, isn't it?"
Su Yirou and Su Yishui were quite puzzled, why did the topic change again.
"Oh, Nikita and Wallace, my wife was also what my parents and sheikhs helped me find at the time, but she herself is not Emirati, not even from Middle Eastern countries, but Indian. β
When Su Yishui heard him say this, he suddenly remembered the pair of bright black eyes hidden in the black veil, oh my God, why didn't he notice it at that time.
Although the eyes of Arab countries and Indians are beautiful, the ornaments on the nose and the red between the eyebrows are not the folk customs of the former.
"My beloved wife, who is very disgusted by the Arab custom of wearing black veils, has caused a lot of quarrels with us, and it is not surprising that my daughter is also unhappy about the same thing, and it is ridiculous that I should call her act a rebellion, is this a kind of irony to me and our religion?" said the prince, who seemed to be completely absorbed in his own domain.
The room was quiet, the breathing was heavy, and all eyes were cast on the Prince, and everyone wanted to know what he was going to say next, whether it was blame or something else.
"Oh, look at me, it's very oppressive, I don't mean to blame, I love my daughter very much, and I can't speak ill of her because of this kind of dress that binds women, please rest assured. Nikita, Daddy said so, you can rest assured. β
"Hmm. Nikita nodded, but the expression on her face showed no signs of relaxation, still tense. (To be continued.) )
