Chapter 30 Precautions for Xu Mujia
A few days later, a gray-haired girl stood in front of the door of a luxurious courtyard with a long sword strapped to her waist and luggage in her hand, looking a little nervous.
In fact, Berex didn't have to move to a nobleman's house to live as an entourage.
There are actually many kinds of noble retinues, for example, there are retinues who are very close to the nobility, but most of these are the henchmen of the nobility, so they will move to the nobleman's house to eat and live together.
There is also the ability of others, usually the nobles will also stay around, mainly to protect their families or the nobles themselves.
The rest are basically ordinary entourage, and whether they can enter the nobleman's house or not depends on the mood of the nobleman, otherwise he will have to find a place to live outside, and it is also a place where the nobleman can shout when he raises his hand.
At that time, Beres was accepted by Xu Mu as an entourage, and she was happy and subconsciously asked if she wanted to live in it by herself, and she regretted it as soon as she said it, after all, these things were arranged by the master himself, how could any entourage propose it by himself, it was really overstepping.
However, Xu Mu didn't care about these at all, thinking that it was not bad for Beres to live in the house, she could practice swords directly at home when she got up every day, and there were so many empty rooms at home, and they were empty, so she asked Beres to move over.
Besides, when he and Ailu went to the Academy of Magic to study, then Sleta would have to stay alone to guard the house.
With Beres here, at least someone will protect and take care of Sresta from being bullied.
Beres thought that she was too talkative, but she didn't expect Xu Mu to agree, she couldn't help but feel that she was trusted by Xu Mu, otherwise she wouldn't agree to move to her master's house.
She was under a lot of pressure for this, after all, she was trusted by her master to stay by her side, and there were many important things that she would do in the future, and Beres suddenly decided that she didn't seem to be particularly good at anything other than being able to play with swords... And my brain doesn't seem to be very good, and from time to time my brain is not well controlled, and my mouth opens up on its own...
Beres took a deep breath and stepped towards the courtyard.
It seems that because of the shortage of manpower, there are no guards standing guard at the entrance of the courtyard, and passing by the flower garden road in the courtyard, there are one or two maids tidying up the flower bed and cleaning.
However, when these maids saw Beres, they seemed to know her arrival in advance, and they all nodded and saluted.
Although it is true that the status of the retinue is higher than that of the servant, it does not reach the point of kneeling and saluting.
When she came to the door of the house, Beres knocked on the door, and she was a little nervous about the unfamiliar environment and her new identity.
It was the butler who opened the door, his face was indifferent, and he was not surprised to see Bereth.
"It's Lord Bereth, please come in. Below is a butler who specializes in serving the master's courtyard. β
"Butler, you're gracious. "Beres was a little restrained.
Entering the house, Beres saw that the decoration inside was no different from other aristocratic homes, and it could even be said that the level of decoration was slightly lower than that of other aristocratic homes.
The butler led Beres away, and the butler said slowly: "Lord Bereth, the master lives on the second floor, so I can only arrange you in the room on the first floor, which should be no problem." β
"No problem at all. Butler, you can arrange it. β
After walking for a while, Beres found that the house was very quiet, and even met some maids, everyone did not greet each other, they all walked silently with their heads down, and the atmosphere of the room seemed a little silent.
Beres couldn't hold back a little and asked, "Butler, where is the master now?"
"The host is now in the room reading a book. β
"I see. β
Then the two fell silent again, which made Beres uncomfortable.
"Butler, what should I pay attention to at home?"
The butler stopped suddenly, looked at Bereth and thought for a while, and said, "There are indeed some things to pay attention to. β
"You say!"
"The host, you should have some understanding. The host is informal and doesn't care much about etiquette. There's nothing too taboo about getting along with your host, but you just have to do what you have to do. β
"That's right. Beres was deeply touched by this, and Xu Mu really didn't attach much importance to these.
"But Lord Berex is at home, so there are two people to pay attention to. β
"Who are the two of you?"
The housekeeper looked left and right: "One of them is the little master." β
"Little master?" Beres was puzzled for a moment, and suddenly became frightened: "Master, he has children?!"
The housekeeper booed and signaled Beres to be quiet: "Of course not, the little master is the master's sister." β
Seeing that she would be mistaken, Berex was a little apologetic: "I see, but what should I pay attention to the little master?"
"The little master has a bit of a strange temper... It's hard to say below. But one thing is true, the master doesn't care about etiquette, but the little master cares a lot. Therefore, when Lord Berex meets the little master, you must be careful, don't anger the little master, otherwise... The consequences can be severe. The housekeeper probed left and right again, and whispered: "There were two maids chatting and laughing in the corridor before, and they were directly thrown out of the house by the little master..."
"That's why it's so quiet in the master's house now?" said Bereth in surprise.
"That's right..."
As soon as the butler's words fell, a small figure appeared on the stairs of the stairs.
Sleta was wearing a yellow aristocratic dress, which Xu Mu had spent the time to find someone to customize for her in the past few days, and it was not just a set.
Ai Lu has some things to say about this matter, saying that Ai Lu is still growing his body, and now he has customized so many sets of aristocratic clothes, maybe he won't be able to wear them in a year, and he feels that Xu Mu is wasting money.
Xu Mu felt that it was nothing, anyway, the money would only be moldy if it was left on him, so it was better to use it to make Sleta happy.
Sleta also held a small folding fan in her hand, which Xu Mu bought and gave to her when she saw that Sreta liked it in the jewelry store.
With graceful steps, Sleta came to the butler and Bereth, and she squinted at the butler, "Butler, is the carriage ready?"
The butler saluted very respectfully: "Little master, the carriage is ready, and it is in the back yard." β
"Good. Sleta wore a thin fluffy glove on her hand, pinched a small folding fan and tilted her head to look at Bereth: "You're Bereth, right?"
Beres was uncomfortable with Sresta's gaze, as if her body had been seen through, and the person in front of her was just a little girl!
"Back... Little master, down there is Bereth. β
"Well, my brother has told me about you these days. β
"Yesβ" Bereth didn't know how to reply.
"Alright. Sleta retracted her gaze, "If my brother believes in you, then I will believe in you too." I hope you don't embarrass your brother. β
"Beres will defend the glory of her master!"
Sleta's cute little face put a smile on her face, "That's the best." With that, she walked away.
Bereth couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw Sleta leave, but before she could completely relax, Sleta turned back to talk to her.
"Bereth. β
Beres hurriedly saluted: "Little master, you say." β
"Since you're loyal to my brother, you'll do anything for my brother, right?"
Sresta's words were so strange that Berez looked up at Sresta's eyes narrowing slightly, as if she was sure of something.
"Everything the host asked for, was everything Beres was looking for. β
"What about me? What about my request?"
The strange and indescribable feeling in Bereth's heart surged up hysterically on her neck vertebrae: "The little master's request, Bereth is the same." β
"Oh?" Sleta opened the small folding fan, which covered the lower half of her face, revealing only a pair of squinted eyes, which seemed to be smiling, "What if I let you kill people and set fires?"
Bereth's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly said, "It's incumbent!"
"That's really wonderful~"
Sleta laughed, withdrew her little folding fan and turned to take small steps, and she finally left the hallway.
Beres watched Sleta leave, only to find that her head was already sweating...
"The little master's name is Sretta, although she is not the master's own sister, but the master is extremely doting on the little master. The butler seemed a little surprised, and he reassured Bereth.
"Butler, that's what you mean when you say that the little master is weird?" Belex smiled bitterly.
"Yes. β
"I saw that the tone of the little master just now didn't seem to be a joke. β
The butler seemed to be thinking something, and then affirmed, "It seems that the little master has not joked with us servants since the beginning. β
Beres took a deep breath, she was already in the pit anyway, it was too late to say anything, she asked with a smile: "Then the housekeeper just said to pay attention to two people, one is the little master, and what about the other one?"
"The other one, we all call her Miss Ellu, and that's what Lord Berex calls her. β
"What is the relationship between this Miss Ailu and her master?"
"It's... Now it's a little hard to say. β
Beres raised her eyebrows: "Hard to say?"
"Miss Ai Lu has an extremely good relationship with the little master, and the little master calls Miss Ai Lu her sister. But Miss Ailu's relationship with the owner is also very close... However, some of them are difficult to tell, at least in the following opinion, it is not surprising that Miss Ailu will become the hostess in the future. The butler smiled lightly.
"Mistress?" Beres sighed a little, thinking about it, a woman lives in a noble family, and she is not an entourage or relative, so it is very likely that it is a couple! Could it be that she has a temper a little bit...?"
The housekeeper smiled and hurriedly waved his hand: "That's not it, Miss Ai Lu is extremely kind, she is a gentle and beautiful young lady, she is usually very good to us." The attention I mentioned below is just to let Lord Beres pay attention to the issue of Miss Ailu's identity, so as to avoid unnecessary embarrassment between you and Miss Ailu. β
As soon as he finished saying this, a slender figure appeared on the stairs.
Since Ai Lu became a nobleman in Xu Mu, she no longer wears a robe and hood, and has also changed into some good-looking clothes that she usually wears.
However, the clothes are not as noble as Sleta's, on the contrary, they are somewhat ordinary, and make people look extremely kind and kind.
Ailu's brown-red hair is spread out, the inky eyes under the bangs are extremely attractive, and the red lips always seem to smile intentionally or unintentionally.
Beres couldn't help but feel a little nervous when she saw Ailu come to them, this Miss Ailu is really a big beauty... It seems that she will not be a mistress in the future, but she will also be the mistress of the master!
"Butler, is Sreta down?" asked Alu, smiling.
"Miss Ailu, the little master is already in the back yard, and the carriage is ready. β
"Thank you. Miss Ai Lu responded with a smile, and then she turned her head to look at Bereth: "You are Bereth, right?" Xu Mu told me about you, and he said that your swordsmanship is superb, and I heard that your swordsmanship is unique in the capital. β
"It's the master Miao. Ailu's voice was as crisp as a warbler's bird, and it was extremely comfortable to listen to in the ears, and the tension in Bereth's heart was swept away.
"You're welcome. I won't talk to you more this time, Sleta is still waiting for me. β
"Yes, Miss Ellu. β
Ailu smiled softly with Beres and the butler, and left.
