Chapter 157: The Prom

A napkin folded into a swan-shaped shape sits in the center of a high-end gold wire plate, and four sets of silver cutlery are arranged one after the other on either side, but there are no chopsticks.

The dinner was hearty, with a lot of strange meats that I had never tasted before, dishes made with cream were delicious, bread was divided into two types of bread, crispy bread and cinnamon bread, and sauces such as plum jam and caviar were also varied and delicious. But unfortunately, most of it is cold, and it seems that people here have an iron stomach.

Snow Scarre: I believe they can feast even with ice slag.

Snowmark didn't feel hungry on the pilgrimage, so he just tasted the exotic food with a little bit of water. Most of the rest of the time, he spent his time observing the piano, which sat far away at the other end of the long table, on the side of the master's seat.

Jean still had that expressionless face, and she couldn't see joy or anger. But she never looked at Snow Scar, which made Snow Scar feel troubled, worried that she had been deeply hated by her.

After the dinner, after drinking black coffee, the dance begins.

Snow Scar changed into another set of clothes that Roland had prepared for him, much to his annoyance, and he couldn't understand why he had to change his clothes when he ate and dance. Doesn't the big family of Beiao have anything else to do?

But I have to say that the new clothes fit very well, with a wide and white silk shirt and a diamond diamond bow tie, which makes the snow marks a little heroic. Black tuxedo, with round-toed Derby shoes, the details are meticulously handled, wearing this set, he is simply transformed from a country man to a rich man in Northern Austria, if it weren't for the fact that his skin color and hair color are incompatible with everyone, he can simply blend into the ball of the nobles of the upper class of Northern Austria.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Xueji pouted, he was not very cold, Western clothes were fancy clothes for him, and he only thought that he was following the local customs. But there's no beauty in it.

The main hall of the castle of the Nord family, the main hall of the castle of the Kéré, is the core area of the entire Château de Carlyle, and it is also the most opulent. The dome-shaped ceiling is tall, the crystal chandeliers are glittering, and the walls are filled with huge classical oil paintings depicting mythical war scenes based on the twilight of the gods. Waiters stand erect on both sides of the gate, guests arrive by various means of transport, carts, horses, and even man-made sedan chairs, and men in various tuxedos and evening dresses hold women's arms and strut, they talk with extraordinary and elegant temperament, and step on the red carpet that reaches the bottom of the steps.

The knights, dressed in various armors, were placed in the side hall.

Xueji was shocked by this big scene, but he didn't expect the pomp and circumstance of the nobles of the Northern Olympics to be so big. In the barren life experience of snow marks, even the wedding banquet of a large family in Shibuya Town may not have such pomp and atmosphere.

But he didn't care much about these flashiness, because he knew that on this pilgrimage road, he was just a passer-by as an object, just like a moviegoer, no matter how wonderful the movie was, when the movie ended and he walked out of the theater, he would be beaten back to his original form and fall into the cruel reality. Nothing can be brought with you, nothing can be taken away.

No, there is one thing that can be taken with you, and that is experience and knowledge.

Holding a glass of unknown wine, Snow Mark stood straight next to the buffet table, reviewing over and over again in his mind the techniques that Kevin had taught him to "Six Styles.

But after practicing for a while, he felt irritable and couldn't continue, and his mind kept thinking of Roland's question and Jean's expressionless face, and of their current tension.

Hey, I don't know if Jean is still angry now, maybe very angry.

At this moment, he overheard the conversation of several young people from Beiao.

"I heard that this is the first ball for the eldest daughter of the Nord family. ”

"Yes, I heard that she is very beautiful, and now she is also old enough to marry......"

"I don't know who will dance with her for the first time. ”

"Don't think about it, she will definitely choose me, the trade cooperation between our Tass family and the Nord family has just begun......"

Xue Zhen glanced at them and found that they were all talents, and their gestures showed a kind of aristocratic demeanor, presumably they were all young talents of various families.

Roland has previously introduced the ball: in the North Olympics, the ball is an important social event for the families to exchange feelings, and the young men and women in the family also want to take this opportunity to find the right person to love and develop their relationship. He knew in his heart that this ball was not a simple entertainment, but also a great opportunity for these noble children to pursue the piano.

The family that is weaker than the Nord family hopes to use this ball to climb the high branch of the Nord family, and the family that is on par with the Nord family hopes to achieve a strong alliance through marriage. Young people's feelings and marriages are actually just pawns for the prosperity of the family. Looking at the ambitious nobles, Snow Mark sighed lightly.

The life of such a wealthy family is really unimaginable for a little person like himself.

His sigh attracted the attention of the aristocratic youths, who also looked the snow marks up and down. Although his origin is not very clear, but looking at his demeanor and temperament, it does not look like a nobleman, and the teenagers have shown disdain.

Although Xueji is brightly dressed, his temperament from the mountains is difficult to change, and he has no intention of hiding it.

"Where did you come from, a wild boy, does such a guy want to dance with Jean too?"

"It's not like the nobility of Northern Ao, maybe it's from Europe. ”

"It's rustic, how could the Nord family invite such a person to the ball. ”

They were whispering, but to Snow Marks, who was the object with extremely keen senses, it was like speaking in his ear.

In particular, the brown-haired young man of the Natas family actually shouted at the snow marks, "Hey, this young master, your fork is reversed!"

Caused the people around him to burst into laughter.

Snow Scar glanced at them, didn't say anything, just smiled indifferently and walked away silently.

These NPC-like people, he disdains to be familiar with them.

At this time, an old and dignified waiter passed by him and handed a note to the young man of the Natas family.

Before Xue Scar had gone far, he heard the young man behind him say to the noble teenagers around him in a tone of excitement that could not be concealed: "The Nord family has made a deal with our family, and I will dance the first dance with Qin!"

Cheers, flattering words, and jealous compliments were heard all around.

Who Jean dances with is not a simple matter, it marks a further step in the relationship between the two families, and may even lead to marriage.

Hearing their conversation, Snow Scar was slightly surprised in her heart, it turned out that this choice was the result of the agreement between the two families, and she couldn't help but make the decision. When I think about it, I understand: how could such a major decision related to the fate of the family fall into the hands of the younger generation?

Just as I was about to leave, I heard the young man of the Natas family whisper in response to his companion's congratulations: "What is she? she is just the daughter of a duke, just my first springboard." My ultimate goal...... It's the royal family of North Austria!"

Because of his hearing here, Snowmark heard their secret conversation, and he looked back with disgust for the boy of the Natass family.

At the same time, he was also a little worried about the fate of Jean.

He is like an observer here, able to see Jean's life, and even see the corners that Jean can't see. This reminded him of Pissarro's prophetic ability, did Pissarro feel the same way when he looked at the fate of others? But since his ability is called prophecy, the greatest sorrow is that it cannot be changed. He also said that as an observer of fate, the most important quality is to stay on the sidelines. But Xueji couldn't help it, on this pilgrimage road, he was the king, how could he watch these NPCs practice the piano here?

The band's soothing music stopped, and Jean appeared from the second floor and descended the long staircase to the hall.

She was dressed in a white gauze dress, white gauze gloves, and a small crown of pearls. After painting a little light makeup, it is gorgeous and moving, and the beauty is breathtaking.

All the young men, including Snow Marks, froze for a moment, attracted by her beauty and noble temperament.

Just as the ball began, Jean scanned the audience and found the young man from the Tass family, who raised her hand and motioned for the other party to step forward and take her hand.

The waiter said on the side: "Young Master of the Tass family, welcome to you......"

The young master of the Tass family shook his collar and walked up the steps with grace and grace amid the applause of his companions, just like a knight who won a duel walked up to the podium to take his own laurels.

His attitude is unhurried,

His steps are not slow,

Maintain a prudent and noble bearing and etiquette, impeccable aristocratic demeanor.

At this moment, there was a bang, and the proud young master Tass suddenly bloomed on his buttocks, as if a firecracker exploded in his pants, blowing up the pants on his buttocks.

The audience was in an uproar.

The boy with good deeds exaggeratedly shouted, "Wow! What a fart!"

Laugh.

Young Master Tass hurriedly covered up in front of everyone, and shouted angrily and embarrassedly: "Who?! Who did it! You dare to sneak attack Ben Shao! You are dead!"

The waiter hurriedly stepped forward to drape him with a large hat to cover the indecent parts.

The scene was a little chaotic for a while, but there was no evidence to prove that it was someone else who did it to him, he walked up the steps in front of everyone, and blew himself up on the steps, and no one touched him at that moment, so naturally he couldn't blame others.

People just say that he really let out a powerful fart.

But Jean looked at the snow marks in the corners of the crowd, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

Although Xuezhen didn't think it himself, but in fact, he was heroic when he wore formal clothes, and he was like two people before, and it was really a person who relied on clothes, and even Qin couldn't help but look at him a few more times when he saw his formal clothes for the first time at this time.

Snow Mark didn't notice Qin's gaze, and was still immersed in the pleasure of teasing Young Master Tas, he had no expression on his face, but he was stealing fun in his heart: this "scattered" technique can be regarded as an introduction.

It turned out that just now he used his fingers to make a gun shape and shot a cloud of nian qi at Young Master Tas's buttocks.

Because of his object status, his behavior is silent, no one can catch his handle, and his mental strength has doubled, to the extent that he can blow up the other party's clothes, which is why such a funny and treacherous scene has been caused.

Order gradually returned, and the ball resumed. Jean reached out again and re-clicked on the first partner.

Xue Zhen watched Young Master Natas leave the hall in embarrassment, and smiled secretly in his heart: Give you a lesson, let you know that the springboard is not so easy to step on.

After taking revenge, I thought about it and felt bored: Hey, why bother, I was on the pilgrimage road, even if I killed him, I couldn't affect him in reality.

But anyway, I feel a little more comfortable.

Jean had already chosen a new dance partner, and Snow Marks heard the waiter say in a steady, loud voice, "Welcome, Prince from the Snow Kingdom of the East, Snow Marks!"

The snow marks are gone, so let's rename.

I turned my head and looked at the waiter who was talking loudly, but I found that it was not the waiter just now, it wasn't Kevin!

Kevin looked at the snow marks with a smile on his face, as if to say: "Being a brother can only help you get here."

Looking at Jean on the steps again, she was looking at herself with a slight smile.

Snow Mark pointed at herself and looked at Jean questioningly, who nodded slightly.

What is in the Kingdom of Snow? I didn't hear it clearly.

Everyone's eyes have been brushed on the snow marks, like countless spotlights. The burning gaze makes people nervous.

Snow Scarred: Damn, I am the master of this pilgrimage route! I'm afraid you won't make it.

He strode up the steps, strutting with his head held high, rough and unrestrained, like a bandit robbing relatives. Don't forget to protect your buttocks with "hard".

This is not in line with the calm and soothing social etiquette of the North Olympics. But no one laughed, and no one criticized.

From the moment people knew that he was the prince of a kingdom in the East, they were impressed by all his actions, and all his actions were reasonable, because this may be the etiquette from a mysterious ancient oriental country, and it is the accumulation and inheritance of oriental history and culture.

Just as there is no difference between all Western countries in the eyes of the Easterners, in the eyes of Westerners who do not know the East, there is only one country in the East, so the so-called Snow Kingdom is as big as the whole of the East in the eyes of some people.

What is etiquette? In fact, it is a way of communication and communication, and the powerful person acts with his own etiquette.

No matter how inconsistent Snow Marks' behavior is with Beiao's social etiquette, he only needs to say a word full of confidence to calm all criticism: "In my country, our etiquette is like this." ”

So the "prince" of the mysterious ancient country of the East heroically took Qin's hand and walked onto the dance floor.
