Chapter 1308 The First Tyrant
"Eat!"
Hu Tao took a piece of cake and handed it to the little girl.
The little girl shook her head.
"The food is here to be eaten. ”
Hu Tao shoved the cake at the little girl, who looked panicked, put her hands behind her back, kept backing away, and peeked at a woman with a pointed chin not far away.
The woman, wearing heavy makeup, was standing in front of an earless, praising the other for her not-so-funny jokes.
"Look, anyone can eat it!"
Hu Tao picked up a piece of cake and swallowed the strawberries on top in one gulp.
The little girl hesitated, after all, she couldn't bear the temptation of the aroma of cream~ and leaned to the side of the cake, as if she had exhausted her life's strength, and sniffed hard.
"It smells so good!"
Goo!
The little girl swallowed a mouthful of water, stretched out the back of her hand, and wiped her mouth vigorously.
"Eat!"
Hu Tao stuffed the cake into the little girl's mouth, and the soft cream touched her lips, which was simply the most wonderful touch.
"It was the cake that hit me!"
The little girl comforted herself, glanced at the woman with a pointed chin, and then licked her lips quickly, the cream mouth, directly burst on the taste buds, that sweetness, she had never eaten in her life, for a while like a wild cat sleeping in the sun, her happy eyes narrowed.
"You haven't eaten cake before?"
Hu Tao grabbed the little girl's hand and shoved it into her.
"Hmm!"
The little girl nodded quickly, finally conquered by the food, and swallowed quickly.
"Why are you eating so fast? ”
Hu Tao asked.
The little girl didn't answer, but the frightened glance at the woman with the pointed chin was enough to say it all, if she found out, she would definitely be beaten up, so she wanted to finish it quickly. But after two bites, the little girl stopped again, took out a small handkerchief embroidered with roses in her pocket, and tried to wrap the cake.
"Oh, what are you doing?"
Hu Tao pressed the little girl's hand.
"Huh, can't you take it away?"
The little girl panicked and explained in a low voice. "Mom has never eaten anything so delicious, I want to bring it back to her to taste!"
"No, I mean you put it in your pocket and it squeezes!"
Hu Tao thought the little girl was so pitiful and sensible, she grabbed her hair, ran away, shouted 'you wait', and began to sweep, holding a plate. Pick from the food on the table that she thinks is delicious.
"Oh, it's all yours, eat as much as you want,
Hu Tao shoved the plate to the little girl and ran away again.
"You brought that little girl, right?"
The countess had long been tired of the pointy-chin woman, and made an excuse to break her up.
"Ah, they're civilian representatives. I don't have much education!"
The pointed chin explained as he turned his head. When I saw the little girl with the plate, I was immediately annoyed, confessed, and ran back in a hurry.
"What are you doing? Who made you eat?"
Pointed chin and scolded.
The little girl lowered her head, not daring to explain, in fact, except for the cake just now. She didn't move a single piece of the food that was piled up on the plate in the shape of a hill.
"Whose child is this?"
A few female guests nearby frowned when they saw a child so uneducated, and complained in a low voice, as if to curse like this. can show their superiority.
The guests who heard this glanced at it, and after recognizing Hu Tao, not only did they not take a stubble, but also quickly walked away, distancing themselves from the person who was talking, for fear of being affected by them.
The face with a pointed chin was dark, and he wanted to hit someone, but he noticed that the occasion was wrong, so he pinched the little girl and warned viciously, "Don't put the plate down yet, hmph, wait until you go back, I'm cleaning you up." ”
The little girl was in pain, but she held back her tears, didn't dare to scream, and obediently put down the plate.
"Hey, just eat something, you're too wide, aren't you?"
Some guests questioned
"Huh?"
The pointed chin was stunned, when did the nobles talk so well? This grand event seems to be a celebration of the whole world, in fact, the commoners must be self-aware, and they should go as far as they want, don't disturb the nobleman's Yaxing.
"What did you do?"
Little Walnut ran back, saw the little girl crying, frowned and asked, "Did she hit you?"
"Nope!"
The little girl quickly shook her head.
"Hey, I don't like you, get out of here!"
Hu Tao ordered.
"You ......"
was scolded by such a small child in public, and the look of her pointed chin couldn't be hung up, but she was not stupid, seeing that Hu Tao's clothes were gorgeous and noble, they must be from a big family, how dare she shout, so she sprinkled her anger on the little girl.
"Okay, I'll call it away!"
With a pointed chin, he smiled and pulled the little girl away, not only with great strength, but also pinched her a few times vaguely, "Don't cry, otherwise I will make your father lose his job, and then your whole family will have to ask for food." ”
The little girl pouted, very aggrieved.
"Bad guys!"
Hu Tao scolded, rushed over, and hit his head on the back of his pointed chin.
Bang Dang!
The pointed chin staggered a few steps, but he still didn't stop his inertia, and suddenly fell on the table, touching the plates.
The crisp and shattering sound was not loud in the hall, but the commotion was enough to attract the attention of the people around it.
"No, it's not me, it's this little girl who pushed me!"
The pointed chin doesn't care about the food on her body, and she is busy apologizing and brushing it off, she is going to be scared to death, this is Buckingham Palace, if she does something rude, even if the royal family does not pursue it, her superiors will clean herself up.
"I saw it, obviously you are unreasonable, and then bully children!"
"You know how to shirk responsibility as an adult, is it a shame to be ashamed?"
"For small children, you should be tolerant!"
Several aristocratic women nearby immediately ran over, squatted beside Hu Tao, and said goodbye, and pointed their chins with accusations.
"I ......"
The pointed chin froze, and then she trembled, even if she thought on her knees. also knows that the little girl who makes so many big people anxious must be extraordinary.
"You're not hurt, are you?"
The aristocratic woman examined Hu Tao's body, patting the dust that did not exist on her body, and was desperate.
Pointed chin turned his head, and saw that the countess he had just flattered also wanted to get to the little Lori, but he didn't dare to step forward at all. Because her title is not big enough.
Now around Hu Tao, the worst is also a marquise, and the others waited a few seconds before finding another way to flatter, which is to accuse the pointed chin.
"Oh, I'm fine, you're so annoying!"
Hu Tao waved her hand impatiently, but the aristocratic women were not only not dissatisfied, but had smiling faces. Keep up the dedication.
"Clean up this place!"
The chief maid finished instructing the servant to stand in front of her pointed chin, "Please leave, you are not welcome at Buckingham Palace." ”
"No, it's none of my business!"
The pointed chin subconsciously defended, to be able to participate in this auction, she spent a lot of money and favors to get the opportunity, to know an invitation on the black market. Millions of gold coins have been sold, and many nobles want to participate. Plated with a layer of gold, besides, the participants are all big people, if you are lucky, you will get the help of nobles to soar.
"Please leave!"
The head maid did not listen to the arguments.
"No, it's this little girl!"
Pointed chin finished. Suddenly came to his senses, and trotted to Hu Tao's side and cried, "Please, I can't leave, or I'll lose my job." ”
"Huh?"
Hu Tao didn't know what to do. She hated this woman, but she didn't want her to have no livelihood.
"Okay, let's get it all gone, it's just a little misunderstanding. ”
Sissi took Downton's arm and walked over.
"Your Highness!"
"Duke!"
A group of high-ranking ladies bowed their heads at this time, and greeted Sissi and Downton respectfully.
"What are you messing around again?" Downton frowned, "Don't make a mess!"
"Hmm!"
Hu Tao held his hands behind his back, lowered his head, and drew circles on the ground with his toes, obviously a little depressed.
"Big brother, it's my fault, she's here to help me!" the little girl stepped forward, "Don't blame her!"
"It's none of your business, she can't control her emotions, she has to admit punishment, she is not allowed to eat dinner today, and she has to do a hundred math problems!"
Downton looked at the little girl with a gentle voice.
"Huh?"
Hu Tao complained.
"But for the sake of justice, I'll buy you whatever you like later. ”
Downton saw everything just now, and he was very pleased, he didn't want Hu Tao to grow into a cold-blooded little bully who didn't know the suffering of the world.
"Don ...... Downton!"
The pointed chin was scared to death, she remembered that she had just put the blame on Hu Tao, and the blood on her face faded, "It's my fault, please forgive me." ”
"Go freshen up!"
Sissi was like a hostess, solving the trouble, "Little sister, go, I'll take you to eat!"
"No, I'm here!"
Hu Tao patted her chest, volunteered, and then ran away with the little girl.
"Your brother and sister are amazing!"
The little girl turned around, in her mind, the pointed chin was the most terrifying person, who could control her father's fate, but the big nobles who made her all whisper stood in front of Hu Tao's brother at this time, very humble.
"Of course!"
Hu Tao was very proud.
"Big brother is so cool, can I marry him?"
The little girl asked.
"That's not good, because Sissi and Sister Dilanxue are going to marry him, and Sister Celes, by the way, and me, so you don't have a chance. ”
Fortunately, the little girl didn't know what the name Di Lanxue meant, otherwise she would have been scared to death by Hu Tao's words.
Walking through the hall again, the little girl found that the eyes of the people around her were no longer cold and disgusted, but full of smiles, and the servants would even come up to her and ask what she wanted to eat, and then help bring it.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please move to the convention hall, the auction is about to begin!"
The moderator announced.
"Let's go, go shopping!"
Hu Tao pulled the little girl away.
"Little Ancestor, you have to say a few more good words to me!"
The pointed chin stopped the two men and gave many promises.
Although the little girl is still young, she also understands that these changes are all because of the big brother, who seems to be a big man.
"The twelfth, the organizer really gave you face!"
In the box, Sissi couldn't help but chuckle when she saw the number on the bidding board sent by the chief steward himself.
"Isn't it amazing?"
Hu Tao looked at it casually, and the little girl stood at the door stiffly, wringing her fingers at a loss.
"Come!"
Elaine takes care of her.
"The top 20 bidding cards belong to the major royal families and wealthy families, which is an unwritten rule because it represents power and wealth. ”
Sissi shook her sign, and there was two on it.
"I don't know who wants to yin me again!"
Downton pouted, many nobles, are eager to get the top bidding card, because it represents the recognition of the upper class, but he is different, the higher he is, the more people will be jealous.
The auctioneer is the most popular actress in Britannia, although she is not professional enough, but she is famous enough, and she is also beautiful, wearing a low-cut evening dress with a V-neck, which completely sets off her temperament.
"The first auction item, the wind of recovery, it can bathe the wearer's body in the breath of nature forever, to achieve the effect of prolonging life, conservatively estimated, can increase the life span by a hundred years!"
It is worthy of being the grandest auction in the Western Earth Continent, and it is the first auction item used to warm up the atmosphere, so it is qualified to be the finale treasure of other auctions.
The nobles began to bid, after all, treasures that increase lifespan, no matter what time of year, will be rushed.
"The sixth auction item, "Pulp Fiction", some people say that it is a book of black magic, recording the evil forbidden arts of the whole continent, some people say that it is just an autobiography of a celebrity, some people say that it is a magic book from other planes, and there are even rumors that it is a secret realm in itself, but no one knows the answer, because there are no more than ten people in the whole continent who can read it!"
The auctioneer explains the origins of pulp fiction.
This is a novel with a shabby cowhide cover, unremarkable, even if it is lost in the grocery pile, no one will take a second look, but above the legend, you can appreciate the magic it contains, as long as you see it, you are reluctant to look away.
"So weird?" Downton frowned, "Homer, what do you think?"
"This book is amazing, and it is said that what everyone sees changes depending on their personality, so I recommend collecting it as a collection. ”
Homer gives advice.
There is never a shortage of rich people who have money and nowhere to spend, and "Pulp Fiction" soared to 100 million gold coins in an instant, and after that, people's bidding began to become slow.
"Why do you collect this thing? You might as well buy a cake to eat. Hu Tao muttered.
"Homer wants?"
While Sissi asked, she had already asked the maid to hold up her card.
"Two hundred million!"
Wow!
The audience was in an uproar, and all eyes were cast, all wanting to see who this rich man who raised his price by 50 million at a time was!
"Too much, right?"
Elaine was a little distressed.
"The final transaction price, I estimate that it is about 200 million gold coins, if you can't calm those buyers in one go, it will become a tug-of-war!"
Sissi won't spend a penny more.
Sure enough, buyers who were originally interested in "Pulp Fiction" began to give up, because they felt that the second buyer must be inevitable.
"Congratulations to Princess Sissi!"
The auctioneer had long remembered the owner of each bidding card, and she also understood that the big man needed a sense of superiority, so she reported the name. (To be continued......)
