Chapter 180: Duke Wink
Hua Yun's thoughts, Hua Long could guess some, but the Heaven Shaking Netherworld Decision, who had already cultivated to the fifth realm, actually found that Hua Yun had the same "aura" as him, and it seemed to be even stronger than him, was this an illusion or ......
However, Hua Long didn't show it, still with a gentle smile, and said softly: "It's all handled by the staff for me, and I often sleep on the table." β
The brothers immediately laughed, but there was a lot of hypocrisy in this smile!
There were more and more guests, Hua Long and Xue Ya also entered the banquet hall, and soon Xue Ya chatted with a group of "sisters", and Hua Long was also surrounded by young noble officials.
In the hall with dazzling crystal lamps, many nobles and dance partners are already dancing on the dance floor to the sound of soothing and soft music, and some nobles are tasting sumptuous food and wine.
The banquet was full of laughter.
"Miss Xueya, didn't you say that you went on a honeymoon trip to the Heavenly Spirit Principality, why didn't you go?"
A group of young ladies dressed up surrounded Xue Ya sitting on the sand, and kept asking about Xue Ya's life after marriage, such as travel, daily life, whether there were quarrels, etc.
It can be seen from their eyes that they are very envious of Xueya!
As for the compliments and envy of others, Xue Ya is naturally very useful, but she is still a little unhappy, because Hua Long has not spoken a word to her in the past few days, which makes Xue Ya a little discouraged, but she is not someone who will give up easily.
"He's the Northern Governor, so he's very busy with official business. Xue Ya made an excuse and prevaricated.
"By the way, Miss Xueya, I heard that Young Master Hualong bought a Lilith cat for you, is this true?" asked a fat young lady.
Regarding the little blue cat, Xue Ya regarded it as a baby egg, not only helped it clean up its hair every day, but also specially asked people to buy the softest foie gras meat for it to eat, but this valuable and likable little guy also earned a lot of glory for Xue Ya, and many young ladies even wanted to borrow this cute kitten to play.
Xue Ya suddenly smiled and nodded.
"Miss Xueya, Lilith is very expensive, isn't it? Young Master Hualong is really kind to you. β
"What is it like? I've never seen it before?"
"It's expensive? I've heard that you can't buy it for tens of thousands of gold coins. β
Xue Ya was happy in her heart, but there was a calm smile on her cheeks, "The hair is dark blue, the pupils are sky blue, about the size of two fists, and the value is only about 100,000 gold coins." β
There was an immediate exclamation among the ladies, which was filled with envy and admiration.
At this time, Hua Yun's mother, the Countess, came over, and the ladies immediately got up and saluted, of course, Xue Ya was also very polite and behaved like a lady.
Since Hua Long joined the Nicholas family, the countess's attitude towards Hua Long has also changed like Hua Yun, after all, Hua Long now has no threat to their mother and son in terms of inheritance, and as a stepmother, she naturally doesn't mind whitewashing the peace.
Seeing that Xue Ya's face was a little strange, the countess beckoned to her, she knew that there must be some problems with Xue Ya and Hua Long's married life, and the main reason was probably that nerd Hua Long.
......
The small living room on the second floor is spacious, bright and warm.
The Countess sat next to Xue Ya, and before she could ask, Xue Ya, who didn't know the tense relationship between her and Hua Long, already looked like she was wronged and wanted to cry.
"What's wrong Xue Ya, is there something on your mind?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xue Ya cried bitterly, and plunged into the arms of the countess, in fact, Xue Ya liked Hua Long's stepmother very much, not only because she gave herself a lot of pocket money, but more importantly, Xue Ya felt that the countess was more like her mother, which may have a lot to do with their similar personalities.
"It must be that Hua Long is not good, he is bullying you, right?" the countess's tone was very gentle.
After crying for a while, Xue Ya suddenly said what she had been holding in her heart for a long time, of course, she didn't blame Hua Long, she just felt that Hua Long was not good enough for her, she always didn't talk to her, and she slept in the study every day, she felt that she was left out.
Hearing Xue Ya say a lot of things, the countess suddenly felt very funny, but she still listened to Xue Ya's description quietly.
"What do you want him to do?" asked the Countess.
Xue Ya thought for a while, "Be nice to me, listen to me, and ...... with me" In a few minutes, Xue Ya said at least nearly three hundred requests, and finally some of them were so many that she couldn't even remember herself, until the countess laughed out loud, she didn't stop, "Isn't it funny?" She shook the crook of her 'mother' arm as if she was coquettish.
"It's not funny. The Countess gently scraped the bridge of Xueya's lovely nose and said, "Have you ever seen such a husband?"
Xue Ya shook her head, perhaps she knew she was asking too much.
In fact, husband and wife should help each other, love each other, be considerate and tolerate each other. The Countess enlightened Xue Ya as a person who came over and said: "If you blindly ask and ask, of course Hualong will ignore you, do you know?"
"Yes...... But I heard that he likes Jingyi, that's why he ......."
The Countess was stunned for a moment, "Who did you listen to?"
Of course, Xue Ya wouldn't say that it was her son Hua Yun who said it, so it would be a big trouble, so she excused herself: "I also listened to what others said." β
"No!" the countess held her hand, "Hua Long is a very responsible child, although a little sullen. β
In the time that followed, the countess told a lot of things about Hua Long's childhood, including going barefoot to catch fish in the mountains, climbing trees to steal fruits, etc., of course, as for those unsightly and bad details, the countess naturally omitted them, but even so, Xue Ya listened to it with relish, but she was also a smart person, listening to it, a question continued to swell in her heart.
Since Hua Long was so lively when he was a child, why is he ...... now?
"By the way, Xue Ya, are you with Hua Long?" Although the Countess said very calmly, Xue Ya's white face suddenly turned into a red apple.
She shook her head, a little shy and a little frustrated.
"Don't worry, my father and I didn't ...... until a year after we got married," she didn't continue, but a happy smile already appeared on her face.
"A year?" asked Xue Ya anxiously, she had always thought that it should be "that" on the night of the wedding.
The Countess affirmed, "It's a year." β
"But he always ignores me, you have to help me figure it out. β
"Do you really like him?"
Xue Ya nodded silently, "I like it." Her voice was too small to tell.
The Countess smiled and said mildly, "You can try this." She whispered in Xueya's ear as she spoke.
......
At the same time in the hall.
In the middle of the banquet, the master of ceremonies suddenly shouted, "Duke Wink Ajamida and Miss Beckinaβhere!"
The master of ceremonies' voice was not too loud, but the hall suddenly fell silent, and all eyes were focused on the corner of the entrance.
Why did the nobles behave so strangely? It all started with Duke Wink's eccentricity.
Although Wenk was a duke, he never participated in high society and was stingy with people, which can be concluded from the fact that he had only one servant in the house, and what is even more surprising is that in order to save money, he rarely bathes and changes clothes, and even his food is leftovers from the bakery.
You can imagine how such a person can not cause a sensation when he came to attend the banquet!
"Count Onno, long time no see. β
Looking at the brightly dressed and aristocratic man in front of him, Count Aonuo, who was standing in front of the door, couldn't close his mouth in surprise, and what made him even more unbelievable was that the fairy-looking girl beside him was actually his daughter?
It's really beautiful! No, I've never seen such a beautiful girl before!
Count Onno's mouth opened slightly, he could even feel that his breathing was a little short, and Hua Yun on the side was also stunned, because Wing's daughter Betchyna turned out to be the "Tianxue" who visited the barracks late at night and vowed to make herself the overlord, she turned out to be the daughter of Duke Wink?
Tianxue is already very beautiful in casual clothes, and she is even more beautiful in an evening dress at the moment.
It was not only the Count of Son, father and son, who opened their mouths wide and showed surprise, and as the nobles gathered in front of the door, the sound almost overwhelming the sky, and the men's eyes lit up, and the ladies felt ashamed of themselves in amazement.
I saw that her white and almost transparent skin exuded a bluish luster, and her blue eyes like the sky were even more seductive, such a beauty was probably inferior even to the beauties they knew - Xue Ya and Jing Yi and other beauties!
And Duke Wink, who was standing next to Bechina, laughed out loud at this moment, and hurriedly introduced: "She is my daughter Bechyna, very beautiful, isn't she? Haha......" His words were full of pride.
"You're not ......"
Count Onno expressed his doubts.
"My three sons all died young, so I was worried about Beckina, so I put her in the countryside. Duke Winck's explanation immediately ushered in a wave of approval, of course, not only because he was a duke, but more importantly, the people who agreed were basically going for his daughter.
If Betchina is the daughter of a noble family, then the men can marry her openly, even ......
Out of politeness, Betcina smiled faintly and then lifted the corner of her skirt to salute the crowd, and her gesture captured the hearts of more men, and even some young ladies were fascinated by her.
The banquet continued, but the pattern changed.
Hua Yun still greeted the guests at the door, while Count Auno and Duke Winck went to the study, and Bechyna, who was in the center of the banquet, was full of people, some of whom had come to inquire about her preferences, and some of whom had simply expressed their affection.
However, there is one thing that everyone does agree on, that is, there is no crowd and noise, and of course no one wants to make a bad impression on this beautiful girl who looks like a goddess.
