Chapter 194: Anne's Great Aunt Really Came

readx;

"You, your eldest aunt is here?" Du Chen stammered and repeated Anne's words, he only felt a cold current rising from the tail vertebrae and rushing straight to the door of his head, and then spread from the door of his head to his whole body, hot. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Oh my God, your aunt is here, come on, tell me what you do!? This kind of private matter seems to be not supposed to be told to male classmates, right?

Du Chen, who has always been conscious and very sensitive, felt that his mind was blank.

Anne nodded shyly, "Well, my great aunt is really here, and she said she wants to see you!"

Du Chen nodded sluggishly, "Oh, it turns out that Auntie is here, where is she?"

"No need, I'm just coming to see you, there are not so many courtesies!" Two people walked outside the door, Du Chen saw an old man first, with a medium stature, an ordinary cyan robe on his body, and he looked very ordinary in his dress, but his silver-white hair reflected the light at all roots, and his dignified face was not angry and arrogant, and the most special thing was that under his Westernized face, it was an earthy yellow skin, and his complexion was very close to that of the Oriental in Du Chen's previous life!

However, Du Chen knew in his heart that the true meaning of this earthy yellow complexion was to symbolize that this seemingly ordinary old man's earth-based fighting qi had been cultivated to an extremely advanced realm, and he was definitely a master among masters!

Seeing him, Du Chen's mind suddenly cleared up, and he instinctively paid attention to the old man's every move, which was the natural instinctive reaction of the fighting god to the master!

Hmm? Although this old man's appearance is extremely unfamiliar, his body shape is a little familiar, where have you seen him? Du Chen felt a little puzzled. It's a pity that he never imagined that this old man was the seriously ill beggar he saved in the sea and sky, and he was also the little nobleman who bullied the commoners he drank in Newinn Harbour...... It may be because the old man's disguise technique is extremely skillful, and Du Chen has done too many good deeds, it is impossible to remember every good person he has helped, or the wicked person he has taught.

The old man entered the courtyard gate, nodded slightly to Du Chen, his expression was very kind, and his eyes also showed a little praise and appreciation. Then, he suddenly bent down, and in the posture of a servant, he bowed down and raised his hand to invite out a middle-aged woman behind him, that is, Anne's aunt.

Aunt Anne seems to be only in her thirties, especially her skin is very white, if it weren't for the mature posture between her eyebrows that revealed her real age, just looking at her skin, she would not be much inferior to the young Anne. And her dress is not very luxurious, an ordinary pale red aristocratic dress, long golden hair tied back her head, tied in a very ordinary flowing bun, maybe the only thing on her body that can be called luxurious is a colorful brooch pinned to her chest...... The needle tail is in the shape of a purple trident blade!

There is no need to introduce, Du Chen has already recognized it, this aunt and Anne are five or six points similar in appearance, standing together, you can see that they must be close relatives with extremely close blood without asking!

At this time, the deboner also came to the courtyard from the attic balcony, and after he saw the old servant, his eyes flashed, and the two eyes were staggered together in an instant, and they quickly separated, the old man's eyes flashed, and the deboner smiled faintly, after he came to Du Chen's side, the eyes of the two were intertwined again, but they were just smiling.

Anne hurriedly introduced, "This is my Aunt Betty! This is my housekeeper, Keane!"

Du Chen bowed slightly, "Aunt Betty, Mr. Keane, hello, I'm Anne's classmate, Francis!"

Betty stared at Du Chen's appearance for a while, and just when Du Chen felt uncomfortable, she smiled inexplicably: "Not bad!" "Hey, it's even more handsome than the portrait, Anne's vision is really good!"

Over the years, Keen had tested Francis many times, and his conduct was almost flawless, and he had seen his own countenance and demeanor, which was very satisfying!

Betty smiled: "Listen to Anne, you took care of her a lot when you were in the academy and during your study tour, and I, as a parent, would like to thank you for taking care of Anne!"

Du Chen continued to be humble, then pointed to the door and said, "Aunt Betty, you are too polite, please sit inside, Harry, ready to entertain distinguished guests." ”

Everyone came to the hall on the first floor and sat down, I have to say that Harry is a caring person, he used to use bad words to say that he was a native bun from the countryside, and his demeanor was vulgar, but since he became Du Chen's housekeeper, Xue Biren studied hard, and at this time, entertaining guests was completely a court etiquette, and there was no rudeness at all.

Keane watched with some surprise as Snow Birren brought the drink, smiled, and waved his low-hanging hand again-at some point, he had already put silver wire gloves on his hands, and then he turned over and took out a small diamond-encrusted box from the belt he carried, knelt down on one knee, opened the small box on his knee, and took out two small cups with delicate magic crystal patterns from the box and placed them on the tray of the lid.

Keane lowered his eyebrows, held the box with one hand, and took out two seven-colored flowers and leaves from the box with tweezers with the other hand, put one in a small cup, and then changed the tweezers to take out two crystal blue crystals from the small box, and gently put them into the small cup along the wall of the cup.

Quietly, the two small cups were instantly filled with colorful liquid, reflecting the brilliance of the translucent patterned cup wall, Keane got up, first laid out two silver silk brocade handkerchiefs on the table, placed the small cups in the center of the brocade pa, dragged and dropped them in front of Du Chen and Betty, and then put away the small box, crossed his hands in front of his abdomen, and stood up one step behind Betty's right.

This set of actions made Xue Biren, who had graduated with honors from the court ceremonial master, stunned, at a loss, and almost embarrassed!

Du Chen was puzzled in his heart, judging from Betty and Keane's behavior, Annie's family was really not simple! At least, the official royal banquet of King Bargena of Lanning did not have such elaborate etiquette!

Unconsciously, Du Chen turned his eyes to look at Anne who was shyly following Betty, Anne felt Du Chen's puzzled gaze, her pretty face flushed, and she whispered: "Aunt Betty, I'll go out first!"

"Hmm!" Betty nodded slightly.

Anne left as if she had unloaded her burden and fled from the battlefield, and when she passed by the small door of the side hall, she suddenly saw little Beibei holding a few 'toys' and playing happily on Andy's body, she hurriedly beckoned: "Beibei, go out with your sister!"

"Beibei knows, Beibei understands!" The little guy rode Andy, hitting the mount with a 'toy', forcing Andy to come out of the side hall.

Keane watched Miss leave, and was smiling kindly at the shy Miss, when suddenly, he saw the toy that Little Bebe was holding and was startled! It was a seal-like toy, with a golden lion on the top and a square base at the bottom...... Could it be...... No, it can't be, how could that thing fall into the hands of Francis and be used as a toy for a small child...... Hehe, I haven't seen the real thing, it's just hearsay, it must be a treasure with a similar shape!

Besides, that thing didn't dare to fight it easily with the strength of the old lady and the old man, if Francis really got it...... I'm afraid there are no bones left! And he can't have the ability to get that thing, and the 'toy' in the little girl's hand just now doesn't have any fluctuations in the natural force!

Keane smiled self-deprecatingly, secretly muttering that he was old and suspicious!

Du Chen sat stiffly, very unsuitable for this kind of aristocratic interaction with many etiquettes, Betty smiled calmly and said: "Your Excellency Lord Francis, I have heard of your deeds, you are a beloved lord!"

"Aunt Betty is overrated, I just did some little things that I deserve my heart, and I got some praise by luck!

Betty nodded, and asked: "Your Excellency is already the lord of the land of 800 miles, as far as I know, the banks of the Newin River have been plagued by natural disasters for many years, civilians have been displaced, and there are only about 300,000 poor people left in the land of Nuoda, Your Excellency, have you considered how to change the lives of these poor people in the future, you should have great confidence!?"

This...... Is this asking myself in disguise how to govern the territory and how to govern? Du Chen thought strangely in his heart, Aunt Betty seems to be testing my political ability!

Although he had doubts in his heart, Du Chen still replied: "I am still young, and my experience in governance is very shallow, so I can only say some immature opinions!" He cleared his throat and continued: "There are three major stubborn diseases in the Newin River, floods, fish-man attacks, and bandits! Among them, the bandit matter is the easiest to solve, because most of the bandits are civilians who cannot survive......

Betty listened quietly, with a smile on her face, but she was judging in her heart...... Governance capacity...... I guess that's good. Now, let's examine his ability to strategize - my son-in-law must be excellent in all aspects!

The two of them asked and answered, and suddenly, the boneless expression moved, and his eyes looked into the courtyard, and the old servant Keane waited for a moment and looked outside.

Du Chen stopped his answer and said strangely: "Brooke, what's going on outside?"

As soon as the words fell, a loud shout came from outside, "Francis, you come out for me, you must give me an explanation today, otherwise...... Don't blame me for being ruthless!"

It's Arthur's voice!

Du Chen is inexplicable, he has never done anything to be sorry for Arthur, so what's wrong with this crown prince brother!?
