Chapter 16 A Different Way
"Polite? Does dad like polite kids? ”
"That's right! But Xiaoxi's words, no matter what, Dad likes it. A certain daughter kissed her daughter's forehead and laughed.
Tong Xi beckoned to a maid who was waiting in the distance.
Before, because Prince Riel didn't like others to disturb his alone time with his daughter, he called the guard maid or something far away,
At this time, a girl in a black and white maid costume who had been paying attention to this side from a distance saw Tong Xi waving and hurriedly trotted over.
Serving next to the big guys, there are pros and cons, the so-called one person who has attained the Tao chicken dog ascends to heaven, especially working in Prince Riel's house, of course, the salary will be high. But there are also downsides.
In this world, slaves are legal, and the hierarchy of commoners and nobles is also very clear, although under the influence of Austin I's vigorous advocacy of "equality, fairness and democracy", the Austin Empire is the country with the least strict aristocratic hierarchy on the mainland, but it is still influenced by the mainland, and the nobles of the emperor and grandson have a more or less "superior" feeling.
In other countries, if a nobleman wants to kill a commoner, it is not illegal! In the Austin Empire, although everyone is equal, a strong man of the rank of Prince Riel and a nobleman with great power in his hands, let alone a commoner, even if he kills a nobleman, others generally dare not speak up.
Therefore, while serving the big people brings a lot of income, they also face a threat to their lives, because for the nobles, those servants can be beaten or even killed when they are in a bad mood.
Therefore, serving by Prince Riel's side, especially taking care of Tong Xi, and letting Prince Riel treat him as a daughter whose eyes hurt, it is really impossible to say half a wrong sentence.
Because as long as someone is in a bad mood and can't make trouble for themselves, they will also affect their family.
At this moment, the young maid lady was walking all the way, trotting as she thought of the wording of the wait.
In fact, the maid is also a profession that eats age, the older you are, the richer your work experience, the more you know how to master the time, in fact, many times, the master does not pay attention to whether his subordinates can do things, but cares about whether his subordinates can do things, understand whether they know whether to do things.
And this young maid had just arrived, in fact, before her, the maids who were selected by the old housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion to wait on Tong Xi's side were all experienced "old men". But one day, Prince Riel suddenly found that his daughter was surrounded by a group of "aunts", thinking that his daughter might need a playmate of the same age, so he asked the housekeeper to find a maid who was "the same age" as Tong Xi.
said that they were similar in age, but now Tong Xi is only three years old, so he can't really find a child of a few years old, right? At what age do children take care of people...... Bumped into the baby bump of the prince's mansion, it is estimated that even his butler will be unlucky.
So at this time, the maid, who is only eleven years old this year, is already the most suitable, and it is not good if she is too small, and it is not good if she is too big......
People at the bottom like them, people whose life and death are completely in the hands of others, have to think twice about their words and deeds, and every word they say has to be lived in their stomachs three times.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess, what do you ......" The maid lady had just taken advantage of the short time when she was trotting over quickly, and thought of her lines, but before she could say it, she was preempted by Tong Xi.
"Xiaoxi is a little thirsty, can you pour me a glass of orange juice?" Tong Xi raised a smile that showed two shallow dimples, a pair of ignorant big eyes and a soft voice.
Caught the maid lady off guard who was ready to face all kinds of unpolite and even difficult things.
The maid with a white maid headdress and long brown hair was stunned for a moment,
"Oh? Oooh oh! The young maid said yes several times before bowing to the two of them before hurrying out of the courtyard.
Looking at the back of the maid gradually walking away, Tong Xi looked up proudly, like a child showing off candy.
Daddy Jadriel kissed her on the forehead again.
It wasn't long before the maid lady came back with a tray in her hands, and on the tray was a glass of orange orange juice.
"Your Highness, the orange juice you wanted." The young maid lady gently placed the orange juice on the stone table beside Tong Xi.
"Thank you, Sister Xiaoyu!" Tong Xi raised his delicate white little face again, and the pair of shallow dimples on his face were clearly visible with his smile.
"Oh, no thanks, no thanks, Her Royal Highness the princess can call me Xiaoyu." The young maid waved her hand hurriedly.
"Okay, I'll call you again when I need to, go down." Riel waved his hand.
Until the maid walked away briskly, apparently in a good mood.
"You lied to me! Her Royal Highness the princess is very easy to get along with! Such a lovely child, you're embarrassed to speak ill of her......"
Sitting in his father's arms, holding the glass of orange juice in both hands, Tong Xi, who was sucking it with a straw, suddenly realized.
If it is according to her character, the general "you! Bring me XXX! "That's it.
In this case, no matter what she did, the aim was to get the servant to get a glass of orange juice, and now it seemed that she could achieve this purpose regardless of her attitude.
But just a change in attitude, just a change in a sentence, can make people work willingly.
Tong Xi, who was holding orange juice in his hands and sucking in a small mouthful, looked at the orange oranges in the cup, and suddenly sighed to himself in a low voice.
"Huh? …… That doesn't seem like a bad thing......"
……
Imperial Palace, Zhuyang Hall.
As everyone knows, all the Demon Martial Academies on the continent only recruit children over the age of six, and cultivating too early will backfire and harm the child's body. Therefore, I will generally learn enlightenment at home, or in the academies opened in various places, and even learn some basic theoretical knowledge of magic and martial arts.
And Zhuyang Hall is the school in the palace that began to provide enlightenment for princes and princesses, which is equivalent to a preschool in another world.
With Riel's status in the Austin Empire, Tong Xi was certainly qualified to study in the Yang Chasing Hall.
In this life, Tong Xi came to Zhuyang Hall on the "first day", and couldn't help but sigh when he saw the immature and familiar faces of those brothers and sisters.
……
One day, Tong Xi walked into the Zhuyang Hall with his head down.
The princes and princesses in the Zhuyang Hall are playing and playing, don't get me wrong, after all, this is still a group of three or four-year-old children, and the oldest is only six years old, which is no different from the noisy scene before the start of the preschool class of the elementary school in another world.
Tong Xi bowed his head and walked to his table and sat down,
"Hey! Sister Xiaoxi, morning! The third prince, Berwen Austin, who was at the same table, greeted Tong Xi. Originally, Tong Xi's identity was not lower than these princes and princesses, and coupled with the great change in Tong Xi's temper in this life, her popularity was still very good.
"Oh, Brother Berwen is good." Tong Xi looked up and showed a reluctant smile to Bowen at the same table.
"What's wrong? Look at you so listless. ”
"Hey...... Brother Berwen...... I haven't finished copying the 'General History of the Continent' left by Mr. Oli Haros yesterday...... I copied it until eleven o'clock in the evening last night, and finally I couldn't help but fall asleep......" Tong Xi smiled reluctantly, and took out a homework book from his schoolbag, in fact, he didn't even copy one-fifth of the general history of the mainland in the homework book......
"Oh, you said that, I also think that old guy Oli Haros has assigned too much homework, how can a book as thick as the 'General History of the Continent' be copied in one night! Even I copied it until 3 o'clock in the morning! Even I'm sleepy, Sister Tong Xi, it's normal for you to stay up if you're not in good health......"
"But the old man of Ollie Harroth is not merciful...... The last time I didn't finish writing, I was whipped twice and it hurt me for days......"
"I'm fine...... Brother Bowen, who made me fail to finish my homework......" Hearing Bowen talk about the teacher's strictness, Tong Xi showed a scared expression.
"How can it be okay!" Bowen said and snatched the homework book from Tong Xi's hand.
"Brother Berwen!" Tong Xi grabbed another homework book thrown by Bowen with both hands, which he had just taken out of his drawer.
"You hand in the homework I've already done!"
"It's okay!" Berwen said,
"How can this be! It's me who didn't finish the homework......" Tong Xi looked anxious and wanted to take back the half-blank homework book in Bowen's hand. But with her small body, which was less than a quarter of the strength of ordinary people, of course, she was easily blocked by Berwen with one hand.
"How can't you! If you can't even protect your sister, what will you talk about protecting the people in the future! Berwen slapped his chest very gentlemanly.
……
Ten minutes later.
"The students handed in the homework they were assigned yesterday."
"Berwen! Why are all the students able to complete their homework, even the youngest, frail Tong Xi can complete the homework, but you don't finish it? It must have been you who were playful and didn't do your homework yesterday! ”
Tong Xi covered his small mouth with both hands, stared at the podium with wide eyes and an apologetic face, looking righteous and awe-inspiring, next to the board Prince Bowen.
A pair of big eyes were hung with tears, and he looked apologetic, as if Tong Xi, who had hit himself with the board, thought so in his heart.
"This feeling of being willing to do things...... It's so cool! ”
