933 gilded prayers
"Jiaojiao, wouldn't it be good for us to put on our faces like this?" Shen Zhezhi asked cautiously. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Shen Jiao glanced at him: "It's just a servant, what face do you want to give him?" β
Shen Zhezhi smiled flatteringly, he really wanted to say that in country Y, the housekeeper of the noble family was quite dignified, but he was afraid of making Shen Jiao angry, so he opened his mouth and still didn't say anything.
Anyway, as long as Jiaojiao is happy, and it seems that Jiaojiao's uncle is not small in country Y, and he should be able to protect Jiaojiao.
Steven returned to the castle nervously, and AndrΓ© waited at home expectantly, only to see Steven return alone.
"What about people? Didn't they come? Andrei asked in surprise.
Steven was ashamed and pleaded: "My lord, I was derelict in my duty and didn't bring the guests back, you can punish me!" β
"What's going on?" Andrei asked.
Steven carefully said what happened just now, and it was inevitable that he was a little dissatisfied with Shen Jiao in his words, especially Shen Jiao's arrogance and rudeness, which was mentioned openly and secretly, and the more Andre listened, the more ugly his face became, and he was also a little dissatisfied with Shen Jiao.
Although Shen Jiao is his niece in terms of blood, she is just a stranger to him, and naturally she can't be compared with Steven's housekeeper who gets along day and night, not to mention that Steven is like a father to Andre, especially after the death of the old earl, Andre is even more attached to Steven, and his feelings are very deep.
Now that he heard that Shen Jiao was arrogant and rude to him as a housekeeper like his father, how could Andre be comfortable, although he hadn't met yet, he had already been labeled as vulgar.
If it weren't for the desire of his mother, he really didn't want to deal with such a rude and rude person, and he had such a beautiful appearance!
"My lord, the old lady has woken up, and she asked you to come over."
Mrs. Yelena's personal maid ran over to reply, Andrei's face was slightly happy, her mother's condition had worsened a lot in the past few days, but she refused to let the medical team of country M treat her, saying that she didn't want to endure torture and pain before she died, so let her leave with dignity.
Andrei could not resist the stubborn Lady Yelena, he and Catherine had all the good things to say, but Lady Yelena said that she would not accept treatment again, not only the doctors of country M, but even the doctors of her own country refused, and only took medicine to receive conservative treatment.
It is precisely because of this that Andre made up his mind to contact Shen Jiao and them, when his mother first learned that he had cancer, he actually proposed to let him go to Huaxia to find someone, but he and Catherine categorically refused without even thinking about it at that time, and his mother never mentioned it again.
But Andre knew that his mother had never given up on this idea, which was why he took the risk of making other families laugh at him and took Shen Zhezhi and them over, but his mother's last wish was to let her go with peace of mind.
Mrs. Yelena tried a new medicine these days, but the reaction to the drug was very strong, yesterday she was even in a coma for a day and a night, and only now did she wake up, and her spirit seemed to be good, but she was very thin and dull, only the blue eyes were still shining.
"Mother, you are so beautiful today, it seems that our family will be able to go out for a picnic again soon!" Andrei walked in with a smile on his face.
Mrs. Yelena looked at her little son, who was somewhat similar to herself, and her heart softened a lot, she gave birth to a total of three children, the palm of her hand is meat, and the back of her hand is also meat, all of which are her own flesh and blood crawling out of her belly, which she loves.
But now she just wants to see her eldest son, this is the child she owes the most, although her departure is not her willingness, but she still feels ashamed of her eldest son, and she doesn't know if Shen Jiaxing's new wife will treat their children well?
As for Shen Jiaxing, she has no shame to see him again!
Because she broke her oath, not only married someone else, but also gave birth to two children, although it was not what she wanted, but the result was so, and now she has a bad disease, it is God who is punishing her!
"Andrey, are they coming?"
Mrs. Yelena looked at her younger son with hope, she knew that her time was running out, and at the moment she just wanted to see her eldest son again, to see if he was doing well, so that she would have no regrets in dying.
Andre looked at his mother's haggard face, his heart was as distressed as a knife, and he forced a happy face: "Mother wait a while, I have already sent Steven to pick them up!" β
Yelena frowned and said unhappily, "Why did you send Steven to pick it up?" His eyes reach the top of his head. β
Steven was dissatisfied with her, how could she not know, although she was usually respectful and polite, but the contempt and dissatisfaction in her eyes could be felt by Mrs. Yelena, and she was still neglected by her, an old lady, let alone Shen Zhe's father and daughter?
It's no wonder you can have a good face!
"Mother, you misunderstood Steven, his manners are flawless." Andrei frowned.
Yelena sneered and said in a dumb voice: "The etiquette is indeed flawless, but it does not come from the heart. β
Andre sighed slightly, his mother didn't know why he was very sorry for Steven, especially in the past few months, he had lost face at all, in his opinion, Steven respected his mother very much, and he couldn't find the slightest fault at all, and his mother was really a bit too much.
But in the end, it was his mother, and she was seriously ill, so Andre could only calm down and let Steven have as little contact with his mother as possible, so as not to make her angry.
"Mother, you rest for a while, and when they come, I will bring them over to meet you." Andrei said softly.
Lady Yelena hummed faintly, and instructed: "Go and tell those subordinates to be respectful and courteous in front of the guests, and don't follow Steven's example, let me know that if someone dares to snub the guests, they will not give them good fruit to eat." β
After saying this, Lady Yelena was panting and her face flushed, and although Andrei was a little dissatisfied, he still responded respectfully and persuaded Lady Yelena to rest in peace.
Although Yelena desperately wanted to see Shen Zhe's father and daughter, her body was too weak, and she fell into a coma after a while, Andre withdrew from the room with a heavy face, he had to send someone to find out where Shen Jiao and the others were.
"My lord, the Shen family sent a post."
Steven handed over a gilded and shiny post, which is the most popular kind of worship post in the aristocratic circle of country Y nowadays, a real gold-plated worship post, and there is a lot of gold-plated, and ordinary people can't afford such an expensive post.
Andre opened the post, the font was very gorgeous, and at a glance he knew that the person was well-educated, and the words and sentences on the post were very decent, and there was no problem at all.
Picture perfect!
