Chapter XXIV. The New Aristocracy of Paris

"Miss Jenny, you should learn to recognize these things."

In an extremely quaint but very elegant villa not far from the center of Paris, a European man who was nearly fifty years old but still very well maintained was talking with a smile to a little girl who was only seven or eight years old in front of him.

The little girl is Jenny, and the villa named Sophiana Castle is a gift from Zhang Zhenyi to his daughter, this three-story villa is not only not tall and relatively low, but it covers an extremely large area. In front of the villa there is a garden of nearly 3,000 square meters, which is a luxury in the center of Paris, and the villa is said to be nearly 200 years old, when Zhang Zhen spent hundreds of millions of francs to buy it from a French nobleman.

This middle-aged man is the housekeeper of this villa, plus the driver, nanny, private teacher and doctor, and the bodyguard sent by Zhang Zhenyi, a total of more than a dozen people live here, and all of them belong to Jenny, a seven-year-old girl.

"Oh, mygod, Mr. Kent, are you kidding? There are so many of these things, how can I learn them, you might as well take me to the fashion streets of Paris for a while, right? ”

Looking at the large number of materials of major luxury brands in front of him, Jenny was not interested at all.

In fact, Zhang Zhenyi didn't let the housekeeper teach Jenny these things, but as a traditional French aristocratic butler, Kent has undergone professional aristocratic butler training, and has been learning these things since his college days. Naturally, he had unusually high requirements for this young lady, but how did he know how Jenny, who had never been educated in the aristocracy, could accept these things.

The Kent butler was very pampered but very strict with the new little master, and he was taught to serve his master well, even though he knew that Jenny's identity was nothing more than an illegitimate daughter. But he knew that the young Chinese master attached great importance to this little hostess, even more than the French aristocratic families attached great importance to their direct children.

As a senior aristocratic butler who understands the aristocratic circle, Kent is clear about almost all the nobles in Europe, aristocrats are their reason for existence, naturally they know much more about the sources of food and clothing than ordinary people, in this developed democratic society in modern times, although aristocrats are not common on the surface of society, but Kent knows that the real aristocracy will not lose its aristocratic status because of the different times, but will only hide deeper. The more gorgeous the dress.

The glory of nobility is sometimes more valuable than life and wealth, but wealth is the primary synonym for aristocracy, in the new shijie, there are many rich people who cut their heads and want to enter the real upper class aristocratic circle, but Kent knows better than those people that wealth sometimes does not mean everything.

Of course, wealth can be a scepter that the nobles are happy to accept, and you can whip them. It is possible to control them, but wealth will never make you a part of it anytime soon.

On the old European continent. The most noble of the royal family, the Wembsburg family, that is, the royal family of the Austrian Empire, can be called a model of the royal family, but the great Rothschilds have controlled this family and even the entire European empire, and the wealth in their hands is unimaginable, but even so, even this terrifying financial family still has unimaginable influence today. But they will never become nobles.

Kent seemed to see the Rothschilds in the young Chinese, but what he didn't understand was that Zhang Zhenyi's understanding of the nobility was not the luxurious royal family of the West, but the real family heritage. At this point, perhaps the ancestors of ancient China understood more thoroughly that he wanted to be a Chinese nobleman, not a Western nobleman.

After Zhang Zhenyi handed over these properties in Paris to Jenny's name, Kent understood that this Miss Jenny would probably inherit more than these things in the future, that is to say, this little girl who was less than eight years old already had all the conditions to become a nobleman, wealth, family background, Central European ancestry, and even her age were enough for her to become a qualified nobleman through her studies.

There is an old saying in China that it takes three generations to build a noble family, which is an accumulation of heritage, and Kent has to arrange for Jenny to visit and shop in those old shops with a history of more than 100 years or even more that are dedicated to serving the aristocracy in the center of Paris.

In his opinion, a nobleman should not only be knowledgeable, but also know how to taste, clothing, art, eating habits and even living have extremely strict rules, but what he didn't expect was that even Zhang Zhenyi didn't plan to train little Jenny to be a noble lady, but in the hearts of this Frenchman, this little girl was born with a noble appearance.

Just like a piece of jade, it will become a great tool if it is carved slowly.

But is it really that simple?

Outside a non-prominent store on the Champs-Élysées, a black Jaguar came to a gentle stop, this Jaguar, known as the leisure sedan brand for the royal family and nobles, was a birthday gift from Zhang Zhenyi to Jenny, worth more than a million pounds, of course, for Jenny, she didn't care how much it was worth, but only cared about the gift given to her by her father.

Most people don't know about this inconspicuous fashion house, but Kent knows that this store has been open on this street for more than a hundred and fifty years, and even during the war, there were people who served customers here, even as usual, and they served the real aristocracy, and even Kent was not sure that the little princess would be a guest here.

After walking upstairs, Kent followed Jenny without saying a word, he needed to observe how the little master would deal with such a thing, it was a necessary social process for the aristocracy, and even visiting the store was an extremely difficult course.

"Hello young lady, what do you need?"

A beautiful waitress seemed to be arranging her clothes, and was astonished to see a little girl who was too pretty to walk into the shop, for she knew who the shop was serving and that she had never seen before.

Apparently little Jenny had never seen these beautiful-looking clothes, which was a far cry from the malls she had been in before, and it seemed to look more like a personal service for one person than for a large group of people.

"Can I buy a dress here? I think Irina will love it. ”

Kent couldn't help but smile when he heard this, this little princess's answer was very appropriate, neither abrupt nor embarrassing, at least he didn't ask how much the clothes cost, in fact, how did he know that Jenny had already thought about buying a birthday gift for Irina before he came out.

"This gentleman?"

The waiter didn't speak but looked at Jenny with a smile, a slightly older woman gestured to Kent, and smiled with satisfaction when she saw Kent nodding, she could see from this middle-aged man with a strong aristocratic temperament that he was a very cultivated aristocratic butler, which was a unique temperament that could not be seen if it weren't for people who often mingled in the upper social circles, just as they had provided the most fashionable and high-end clothing for the nobles for generations, Professional housekeepers naturally have something unique about them.

Now that the butler had nodded, she knew that the little girl who didn't look like an aristocratic temperament was probably the little princess of a family, maybe she was just naughty, and I have to say that little Jenny's appearance and fluent French gave her the illusion.

“+++”

Jenny gave a series of numbers very fluently, which made the woman stunned for a moment, and then realized that this was the size of the little girl's clothes, and she was a little confused when she looked at the little girl's appearance.

"It's a birthday present for Irina, and I think she's going to love — uh— this one— oh no, that one."

Jenny didn't choose the most suitable one for a long time, a little face looked a little overwhelmed, for a little girl, this is indeed a small problem, at this moment Kent knew that he should come out, he nodded slightly at the lady, and then bent down and whispered a few words in the lady's ear.

After knowing the little girl's intention, the woman kindly signaled the waiter before to take out several different summer dresses, both the color and the style were extremely novel and elegant, even Jenny had to admit that these clothes were very beautiful, the woman after learning some of Irina's situation from Kent, with her professional acumen, made the most suitable judgment, naturally very suitable.

Just as Jenny wanted to take the clothes in her hand, she suddenly stretched out a white and slender hand from behind the hanger on the side and took the clothes straight from the woman's hand.

"Ms. Avelin, I think these clothes are very good, can I try them on?"

A female voice that seemed unceremonious came out of the mouth of the woman who came out, fair skin, the same blue eyes, a blond hair scattered over her shoulders, extremely tall, it turned out to be a very good-looking young girl, the beautiful woman smiled shallowly, and a pair of eyes looked at the little girl.

"Oh, what a pretty little lady, can you try these clothes on for me?"

Jenny was about to say something, but suddenly saw the Kent butler suddenly step forward, the whole person bent down slightly and nodded to the woman in an extremely elegant manner, and then said with a smile on her face:

"Dear Miss Margaret, this is Miss Jenny, the youngest daughter of Mr. Zhang, who has only recently moved into the Château de Sophiana, Jenny, this is Miss Elle-Marguerite Bonapart, and a neighbor of the Château de Sophiana."

But to Ken's surprise, Jenny's next performance surprised him.

"I took a look at these clothes first, and I'm going to give them to Irina." (To be continued......)
