053 Double ponytail
There is a dressing table next to the bed, and a large glass mirror that can fully absorb a two-meter person. From the outside, there is a water fountain garden, and you can sit by the window and enjoy the scenery with a cup of tea. Barring any accidents, given the average life expectancy of the aristocracy at the time, she would have stayed at least twenty-five to thirty years at the age of seventeen.
"I'm going to attend a banquet later, so please forgive us for being rude. β
Waiting for Blanche to tap her forehead, he slowly reached out to remove her clothes.
Her hairpin was removed first, the knots were untied, her long waterfall hair fell to her waist, and the decorations on her body, starting with earrings, necklaces, hand rings, maids, and finally her underwear, were removed until she was naked.
"Your skin is so white. The maid complimented.
Then there is the bath, there is a small bath in the Moonlight Palace, and the waterway is specially designed to bring in hot and warm water, but sometimes Randall is too far away, so he builds a room around his room, and can also enjoy the bathing service.
The pavilion was originally Randall's residence, and it was built a year ago for the wedding. The maids wrapped Blanche in a cloth and soaked her in a large tub and began to wash her .......
When she was done, a maid gently combed her hair with a comb and added a new perfume to the territory, and two maids helped her pick up a spatula to remove excess hair from her body and trim her eyebrows.
Seeing that the new hostess was very nervous, the maids were also concentrating, for fear of making mistakes. When it was cleaned, two maids were put in to dress her, and they brought Blanche a few sets of clothes.
In the first round of selection, Blanche chose a light blue dress, which is the color of the sky, under the protection ......of Sidney, she exchanged her freedom for safety, and she almost had nothing to do with going out, she often stared at the sky, tears and thought of her mother, and the days passed day by day.
Then she went back to the queen bed, facing the dressing table.
"Please pick one. β
The maid took the drawing, and flipped through the pages with the hairstyles favored by the various Gallic noblewomen.
Blanche was used to relying on Amy, and now looking at her again, Amy's gang asked, "May I ask what style is in vogue in Gaul now?"
"The more hair, the better, and even many ladies will add wigs, but the young master used to dislike it, and it was too oily, and he didn't say anything good, so I suggested taking the coiled hair, or a double ponytail. "But lately there have been more and more people with hair, and the latter is a novelty. β
"Well, auntie, that's it. β
Amy took Blanche's palm and patted her on the back to calm her emotions.
With a nod, Blanche's hair was split in two sides, and the Gallic FranΓ§alists wore aristocratic costumes and jewelry.
After finishing dressing, the maid of the Moonlight Palace, who is good at makeup, put on some powder for Blanche to cover her pale face that had just recovered from her illness.
"All right, little lady, please see, the most beautiful woman among the Farrans is not as good as you. β
Blanche looked at herself in front of the large glass mirror, feeling rusty, her eyebrows were trimmed high, which made her look a little more imposing, and the shiny pearls on her neck made her high-profile and luxurious, different from the previous soft and smooth eyebrows.
It had only been half a day since she stepped on the shore, and the mark of Aragorn had been completely removed, and now she looked like a true Franco. Can she really turn Randall of Gaul into Randall of Aragon, as Uncle Sidney said?
"If you're okay, you'll be able to go to the banquet. β
Blanche spent more than three hours mixing and dressing, and by the time she entered the banquet, Randall had been there for more than an hour.
She wore a pale blue dress with high heels, both of which made her taller and thinner. The steps are very steady, walking the popular footwork among the nobles (this matter is connected between the two places), every step out, the body is not crooked, keep it flat, and look generous.
Maybe it was the situation, or maybe Amy's private reassurance had an effect on her, and when Blanche met everyone's gaze, she would tap her forehead to show friendliness, and she didn't look out of the ordinary.
The etiquette that the noblewoman should have learned, she did not fall behind, but she was silent and afraid of becoming the center of the crowd, and Sidney was never able to cure it.
"Young master, are you going to serve a new dish?" Seeing the hostess coming from afar, Hohen whispered.
"Is she okay?" Randall Dow.
"Good. Hohen gave a slight introduction to Blanche's appearance, "The little lady is extremely beautiful. β
Randall felt that he answered very casually, he asked Rafa in private, Rafa this kid was also vague, only said that it was good-looking, the more people said this, the more curious he became, the portraits of this era were too distorted, so when he had the opportunity to see Blanche's portrait, he didn't look at it, and now he regrets it.
Blanche was on Randall's right, and Amy was behind her.
"Homer von Landa. β
"Siy-von Jon. (Note)
The two old nobles saw Blanche arrive and stepped forward to introduce themselves.
Homer was the first minister of Grad, the head of the Interior Bureau, and he was also opposed to this marriage, the province of Grad was adjacent to Aragon, and forty years ago, when the two forces were still between them, there was a great dispute over the border, and Hymar had four relatives, all of whom died at the hands of the Aragonese, including his uncle who raised him, Seahorse.
After Blanche sat down, Randall warmed up with two Gallic jokes, but there was no response.
"Amy. β
"Young Master?"
"How is your aunt dressed today?"
"She is the most beautiful woman in the world, but unfortunately you have eye disease (eyes without beads). β
When Amy blurted out, she found that she had fallen into a dead silence and was a little panicked.
She entered the country and changed to speak French, but her accent was not good, her eyes were sick and her eyes were very similar in pronunciation, she quickly realized it, bowed her head and apologized, "I'm sorry, young master, I didn't mean to." β
This is also why she is not familiar with the "spoken language of the nobility" in Gaul, many words, in the common French language of Gaul, there are many words with the addition or subtraction of syllables to make the word have positive and negative meanings, and some words avoid misquotation, and the nobles will replace them with other words.
Randall didn't pay much attention to it, just a little girl, but he couldn't see it. There was no immediate reaction to Amy's movements, and she nodded her head to indicate that it was okay.
"I respect you. Homer raised his glass and tried to test Blanche, but Blanche didn't drink, just shook her head.
"Why don't you speak?"
"She's not very comfortable, and besides, I don't drink, she's the same as me. β
A few more minor nobles came behind Homer and greeted Blanche, who was a little nervous just now when so many unfamiliar maids surrounded her, not to mention these male nobles who looked to have beards.
The nobleman kept tempting to force Blanche to speak, but Randall was annoyed and ready to send it away, while Blanche's nervous lips turned white.
Seeing this, Amy wanted to be appeased, but a servant happened to serve the food, and Blanche grabbed Amy with more force, Amy accidentally touched the food, and some sauce happily ran to the corner of Randall's eyes!
