After receiving Anna Tanaka's instructions, the maids also continued to do their own things. Maybe for them, as long as the owner has no opinion, then it doesn't matter who comes in.

Natsuki walked straight to the hall, then looked around, and said to Anna Tanaka, who was pouring tea for herself, "Where's Miyo-chan?" ”

"Miss is handling some things upstairs, Xia Shujun wait for me a while, I'll call Miss down." Ana Tanaka poured a cup of tea for Natsuki, and was ready to go upstairs to call Miyo Akimoto to come down.

Natsuki nodded, sat down and tasted the tea leaves of the Akimoto family, feeling that the tea of the big family was really different, and the entrance was so fragrant. Natsuki drank wine while feeling the movement of the study upstairs with Kamiori.

"What's wrong, Butler Tanaka? Didn't I say, don't bother me while I'm working? "Miyo Akimoto was suddenly interrupted from her train of thought, but she was quite irritable, the gentle and virtuous appearance that Natsuki had seen was long gone, and now Miyo Akimoto's face was full of impatience.

Anna Tanaka hunched down and said, "Miss, it's not that I deliberately came to disturb you, but a guest you want to meet." ”

Miyo Akimoto just wanted to refuse impatiently, but suddenly thought of something, and immediately stood up excitedly: "Butler Tanaka, you mean, Natsuki-kun is here?" ”

"Yes, miss, Xia Shujun is waiting for you downstairs now." Anna Tanaka was not angry because of the impatience on Miyo Akimoto's face before, but nodded with a smile.

Miyo Akimoto immediately wanted to go out directly, but when she walked to the door, she stopped, looked back at Anna Tanaka, who was a little puzzled, and asked, "Butler Tanaka, what do you think of me now?" Is your hair messy? Ah, and am I dressed decently? Shall I go and change my clothes again or something? The tone was full of nervousness.

Tanaka Anna smiled helplessly and said: "Miss, what are you talking about, in the whole castle, no, it's the whole of Japan, I have never seen a better looking and more temperamental person than you, so, please Miss be more confident." ”

"But," Miyo Akimoto, although she heard her housekeeper say this, still felt a little entangled, "I've been working all morning, do you look tired?" Let Xia Shujun see it like this, will he have a bad impression. ”

"Don't worry, miss," Tanaka Anna said quickly, "Natsuki-kun is a person who doesn't care about these things, don't you say the same thing?" "Last time, after Natsuki left, Miyo Akimoto told Tanaka about it, so Tanaka was still very impressed.

Miyo Akimoto heard Anna Tanaka remind him like this, so he pondered for a while, and then nodded solemnly: "Butler Tanaka, you're right, Natsuki-kun is indeed a person who doesn't care about this matter, so I don't need to be so deliberate, otherwise let him know, I don't know what kind of person he will become in his heart." ”

Tanaka Anna didn't expect Akimoto Miyo to do this without hiding her liking for Natsuki, and suddenly she felt a little apprehensive in her heart, Tanaka Anna kindly reminded and said: "Miss, it seems that our Akimoto family still has a marriage, and when the time comes, Miss, you can't pursue the person you like." Or, Miss, it seems that you can only choose people from the big family. ”

I didn't know that Xia Shu had already heard the conversation here clearly, and the two of them were very happy to discuss here, and Xia Shu was also listening downstairs with his eyebrows raised, but he didn't find out that there was such a big thing.

"I know," Miyo Akimoto was obviously unhappy because of what Tanaka Ana said, and directly pushed Tanaka Ana away, and was about to walk out of the door: "Butler Tanaka, I hope you will keep your mouth shut for me a while, and don't tell me this kind of thing." ”

"But, miss," Anna Tanaka was a little anxious, "no matter what, you are the successor of the Akimoto family, and you must take into account the interests of our family in everything you do!" ”

Miyo Akimoto probably calmed down at this time, and she said without looking back: "I know." Then he opened the door and walked out.

Anna Tanaka was stunned there, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time, not knowing what her eldest lady meant? What does she know? What else to do next? I don't know what Miyo Akimoto did, Ana Tanaka hurriedly went out, wanting to go to Miyo Akimoto and Natsuki's side and listen to their conversation, if Miyo Akimoto said something not very good, at least Ana Tanaka can save it.

Anna Tanaka, who rushed out, hurriedly went downstairs, although the pace had tried her best to control the speed, but she was still glanced at by Natsuki lightly, and said, "Is there something urgent about Butler Tanaka?" ”

It can be said that Natsuki is also a master of acting, and he already knows what happened, but he still pretends to be like he doesn't know anything.

Tanaka Anna hurriedly smiled awkwardly: "No, no, Xia Shujun, I'm sorry, I just thought that I didn't seem to have poured tea for you yet, and I am a housekeeper, how can I let the young lady and the guests wait for me, it's really rude." ”

"Butler Tanaka's memory seems to be a little bad," Natsuki smiled and raised the teacup in his hand, and said to Tanaka Anna very gently, "Butler Tanaka has actually poured tea for me, so there's no need to worry." ”

Tanaka Anna's face suddenly stiffened again, and then she hurriedly said with a dry smile: "Then I'll go make some snacks for Miss and Xia Shujun." ”

Miyo Akimoto was also very impatient at this time, she didn't know why, Anna Tanaka was so strange today? So Miyo Akimoto looked at Anna Tanaka suspiciously and said, "Butler Tanaka, what is the matter with you, always disturbing my conversation with Natsuki-kun here." ”

"I don't, miss," Ana Tanaka really wanted to cry without tears, didn't she just come out? How could the young lady say that she kept interrupting them? It's really a sin that wants to be added, "Didn't I just come out?" ”

"Anyway, you're talking today," Miyo Akimoto waved her hand and motioned for Anna Tanaka to do what she had to do, "Okay, okay, do what you want to do, you don't know why today, it always makes me very irritable, you're not usually like this, so Tanaka housekeeper, think about it, what's wrong with you, if there's anything, it's better to say it earlier." ”

Tanaka Anna originally wanted to say something, but when she heard Miyo Akimoto say so, she could only leave aggrieved.

Waiting for Anna Tanaka to enter the kitchen farther away, Natsuki smiled and said to Miyo Akimoto: "Okay, since I also helped Miyo-chan drive Butler Tanaka into the kitchen, then what is the matter, you can also say it directly, right?" ”

Yes, what Ana Tanaka just saw was actually a scene directed and acted by Natsuki and Miyo Akimoto, but because Miyo Akimoto got downstairs, he told Natsuki that there was something he wanted to tell him, but he needed Natsuki's help to drive Ana Tanaka to the kitchen, otherwise it would be inconvenient to say it, so there would be the scene just now.

Miyo Akimoto breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Anna Tanaka leave, and then said slowly: "Natsuki-kun, do you know? I really wanted to leave. ”

Natsuki raised his eyebrows, then turned the cup in his hand around a few times, and after being silent for a while, he said, "If you want to leave, it's actually very easy. ”

"How is that possible?!" Miyo Akimoto became excited, and then realized that there seemed to be something wrong with her attitude, so she hurriedly said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Natsuki-kun, I'm just a little excited." ”

Natsuki, who had just seen the conversation between Miyo Akimoto and Anna Tanaka with Kamiori, naturally knew why Miyo Akimoto was excited at this time, so he shook his head casually and said, "It's nothing, please be casual with Miyo-chan, don't collapse your nerves too tightly, otherwise one day, you won't be able to stand it yourself." Saying this, in fact, Natsuki also thought of Hinata Nanami.

Isn't Nanami Hinata also a typical example? If you put too much on your shoulders, sooner or later, you'll crush your nerves.

This is probably the reason why Natsuki often points out Hinata Nanami.

Miyo Akimoto glanced at Natsuki gratefully, and then nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, I feel that I'm really tired of living like this, I really want to feel the life outside, but I haven't been in contact with the outside for a long time, and I'm about to forget how to get along with people." Saying that, Miyo Akimoto's eyes were also confused.

Natsuki was naturally able to feel the downturn in Miyo Akimoto's mood.

"That's not necessary," Natsuki smiled, then put the teacup down, looked at the sky outside, and said meaningfully, "Miyo-chan, do you think you're locked up in this castle every day?" Someone has restricted your movements and won't let you fly out of this cage? ”

Miyo Akimoto looked at the vast sky outside a little confused, and didn't quite understand what Natsuki meant: "Natsuki-kun, what do you mean?" ”

Natsuki chuckled under his breath, which made Miyo Akimoto feel even more confused.

"Miyo-chan, since you can also see the sky here, and the sky of the castle doesn't restrict your flight, why haven't you thought about flying out?"

Miyo Akimoto's eyes widened suddenly.

Originally, Miyo Akimoto wanted to refute Natsuki, but when she thought that outside her castle, there was indeed no barbed wire, that is, there were no restrictions, so that Miyo Akimoto could not cast her spell and fly out.

But why, after so many years, she never thought of escaping? Miyo Akimoto fell into deep thought.

And Natsuki, since he has woken people up from his confusion, it is naturally his business. Boredom drinking tea, feeling the fragrance of tea in his mouth, Natsuki nodded.

Soon, Anna Tanaka came out with a plate of dim sum.

Probably because she was in a hurry, so Anna Tanaka's head was covered with beads of sweat.

"Miss, Natsuki-kun, please have some snacks," Ana Tanaka put the snacks on the table, and then retreated behind Miyo Akimoto and quietly wiped the sweat from her head.

Natsuki glanced at Anna Tanaka meaningfully, and then pretended to be casual and said, "Butler Tanaka, isn't it very hot in the kitchen?" ”

In fact, it can be said that this castle of the Akimoto family is very well built, and Natsuki feels cool and breezy when he stays here. But at this time, Anna Tanaka's head was full of beads of sweat, which was really unreasonable.

Miyo Akimoto also woke up from his contemplation at this time, and when he heard Natsuki say this, he turned his head to look at Anna Tanaka, and sure enough, he saw the sweat on the other party's face, obviously they were already old people, and now this look is even more pitiful.

Miyo Akimoto couldn't help but be angry and anxious, "Butler Tanaka, why are you in a hurry?" Don't you know how old you are? When I left you by my side, I said that I wouldn't let you work, didn't you promise me that it would be good? But now? What are you doing? ”

Anna Tanaka said with a little snort: "Miss, I didn't mean to. ”

"What do you mean by not intentionally? Steward Tanaka, if you do this again, I'll let you go back! Although Miyo Akimoto said this, she quickly took out the handkerchief on her body, and wiped her sweat on Anna Tanaka with very gentle movements.

This move looked in Natsuki's eyes, and Natsuki's heart scored Miyo Akimoto a little higher.

It is not easy to maintain a normal heart in such a luxurious environment, and to be able to be so filial to a person who has been kind to him when he has already made a fortune, Natsuki feels that this is very commendable.

"Miss, that's not good." Ana Tanaka was obviously frightened, and when Miyo Akimoto did this at first, she didn't react so much. So Natsuki speculated that Anna Tanaka probably saw herself staring at them, so she was in a hurry.

Natsuki smiled and said, "Don't worry, this obviously shows that Miyo-chan has a good relationship with Tanaka's housekeeper, and it's not a bad thing." Butler Tanaka doesn't need to be in a hurry. Natsuki also knew that Anna Tanaka was probably afraid that she would look down on Miyo Akimoto in her heart, so she was so nervous.

Miyo Akimoto also frowned and said, "Butler Tanaka, I said it all, you are my relative." ”
