Chapter 295: The End of the Festival

Previous Chapter

The Blazer's dining table had always been a long table, but in order to prevent the holiday season from becoming less pleasant, someone had the foresight to replace it with a round one.

In this way, if you lose the main position that everyone has recognized since ancient times, you will naturally not cause noise because of some trivial things.

The guests, when they saw the round table, made a surprisingly synchronized motion, and instead of sitting down beside the host, they sat opposite him, with Her Majesty the Queen sitting in the middle, and the Duchess and Viscount on her right and left.

As for Lynn herself, of course, she sat with her relatives.

Reaching out and knocking on Rosalind, who was already eager to do something about the dish, Lynn clasped her hands together, and everyone followed suit.

God's Christmas, as the name suggests, is a festival that celebrates the birth of God.

Before entering the formal dinner, the first thing everyone should do is to pray to the gods that what they hope for will happen in the coming year.

However, all the people present did not seem to believe much in such a thing, except for Madame Blazer, all of them simply pretended to open their eyesβ€”especially Rosalind.

She was the first to open her eyes, and immediately stared at Lynn, and when she saw him smile helplessly when she opened her eyes, Rosalind knew that she could do it.

"Woohooβ€”"

With a cry of joy, she stood up, grabbed her fork and thrust it into the meat she had coveted for a long time.

And with her move, everyone smiled, picked up knives and forks, and began to eat lively.

Compared with the previous head of the family, the current Blazer family does not have such a serious atmosphere, so that they are not allowed to talk during the meal - not to mention, how can it be quiet when so many women gather together.

"Do you want to eat this too?"

Charlotte was the first to speak, for she caught a glimpse of Corinna's intently staring at Rosalind, and thought she wanted to eat the meat too, so she took a piece of it with her fork and brought it to her.

"Whoa."

"Oh, this, this, what's so embarrassing!" With a hypocritical gesture, Corina took the food and put it in her mouth.

It's sweet, and it tastes good, but it's not particularly top-notch, and it doesn't seem to be worthy of Rosalind's fanatical movements.

"Rosa has a passion for any food, especially sweets, and it's normal for you to feel a little bit heavy and not as delicious as you thought."

The whisper in her ear made Corina turn her head.

She stared at Erin and said in surprise, "How do you know my tastes?" ”

You can ask your chefs if they have done research on the tastes of your 'noble' guests, even if they will never come to your house in their lifetime."

"yes." Charlotte interjected, "The chefs of the royal family often have to update the list of hobbies and tastes of the nobles. ”

Corinna: "."

Since the fall of her family, Christine's financial situation has plummeted, and in order to save some expenses, Corina rarely entertains others in her own home, and always goes to the banquet hall that will give her a discount.

Even, when she was at home, she did it herself.

"I'm sorry, I don't know, I'm sorry." She said with some grumbling.

"Don't be sorry." Erin smiled and said, "After all, as a nobleman, it is also very admirable to be self-sufficient in dining." ”

β€œ.”

Corina pinched her fork and was about to fight back, when she heard Charlotte say again.

"yes, Corina is really good." There was a yearning in her eyes, "I always want to cook by myself and prove my skills, but both in the past and now, there are people who stop me from doing it for various reasons. ”

She sighed, "I really want to be like Corina, cooking and making delicious meals myself. By the way, Corina's craftsmanship is very good, not inferior to that of the chefs. ”

Charlotte's words were full of sincere envy and yearning, and the sincerity made it impossible for anyone to find fault, even Corina herself scratched her face a little embarrassed.

"It's too famous, how can it be so good."

"It's really good!" This sentence was said by Rosalind next to Corinna.

I saw her eyes shine, she held Kelina's hand, and said sincerely: "Sister Corina, please come to our house more often in the future, it doesn't matter if you are tired of playing, we have a lot of rooms!" ”

β€œ.” Corina smiled dumbly, and said meaningfully, "Well, I don't have any opinion, and it depends on the master to disagree." ”

Lynn, who was inexplicably cue, blinked and gently tapped Rosalind on the head with a fork.

"It's okay to invite people to visit, but as the person who sent the invitation, you have to take good care of them when the time comes."

"I'll do it!!" Rosalind shouted loudly.

Lynn smiled and didn't say anything more.

He rested his elbows on the table, propped his face, and looked at the crowd sitting around the round table.

Rosalind was communicating with Corina about her preferences and taboos about the taste of food, and it was only at this time that Rosalind rarely took it seriously and used her brain to analyze it;

Mother was chatting softly with Reg about some of his things in the army, and at this moment, Regg, who usually didn't talk much, had to babble a few more words, trying to describe his less miserable but not so smooth military career in a calm tone;

As for Charlotte and Irene

The two of them were chatting as well, but the content of the conversation was all about Kingdom affairs, which was somewhat serious compared to the chatter of the others and the atmosphere of today.

Charlotte obviously didn't want to continue the conversation, and it was clear from the way she looked at Lynn that she wanted Lynn to save her.

Smiling, Lynn picked up his glass.

Charlotte would also have noticed at this time, and at the same time raised her wine glass and touched it in the air.

β€œ.”

Miss Erin was forced to stop the conversation because of this action, and glanced at Lynn with some dissatisfaction, only to see him shake the cup again, wink at her, and purse his lips.

"I wish you good health, ma'am."

"That's too much."

With a mutter, Erin finally chose to raise her glass and touch it in the air.

The liquor collided gently on the wall of the glass, reflecting the woman's bright smile like a star.

The dinner was eaten for a long, long time, and everyone drank a lot of alcohol except for Rosalind, who was forcibly forbidden to touch alcoholic beverages.

Of all these people, Reg was unexpectedly the worst drinker, and after only a few sips, he felt that the world in front of him had begun to spin.

On the contrary, Charlotte, who looked soft and glutinous, unexpectedly persevered to the end, thinking that there were some physical factors after the magic enhancement.

They get together to fight, from national affairs to embarrassments between each other, and when they get drunk, Corina even begins to expose her own shortcomings, causing everyone to laugh.

The noise continued until the wall clock on the wall struck three times, and everyone gathered back in their voices.

At this moment, Lynn stood up and looked at the unexpectedly harmonious ladies.

"Happy New Year, everyone."

"Happy New Year!"

Everyone got up one after another, and the wine glasses collided together, crisp and pleasant.

In this way, this dinner can be regarded as the end.

But, things are not over.

According to the management, after dinner, it should be a part of exchanging gifts.

The first person to take out his gift was naturally Lynn, who was the owner.

"Mother, Rosa, Regg, and the three of you 'adults'."

He laughed, took out one after another gift boxes wrapped in colorful straps and beautifully packaged from the cupboard on the side, and gave them to everyone present.

Everyone thanked each other, but except for Rosalind, they didn't open the gifts, and they all asked each other "what do you think it would be inside" with a curious smile.

As for Rosalinde, who opened the gift, she couldn't laugh.

She looked at the stack of brand-new books in front of her with a sad face: "Why, why, why do I still have to study when I don't go to school." ”

"It's because I didn't go to school that I need to study more." Mrs. Blazer tapped her on the head and handed her the box she had prepared, smiling strangely, "I hope there will be no duplication of the two of us' gifts." ”

Rosalind: "."

She folded her hands and prayed that there would be no more so-called books except for her brother and mother.

Luckily, she didn't receive any more books.

Another brother, Regg, gave her an Iron Medal; Charlotte's gift was a sparkling gem; The favorite snack gift box comes from the Duchess who understands people's minds; And the last Viscountess gave her a beautiful dress that she had made by herself.

"Thank you!"

She cheered, ran towards the three women, and happily smacked on everyone's face, and after a long time of confusion, her mother's face was saliva.

As for the two elder brothers

One for the book she hated the most, and the other for a medal that looked useless and unsightly

Stay where it's cool!

Reg was devastated by this, and the whole person seemed to have lost his life in the sofa, but Lynn smiled and turned to look at the three ladies who were discussing with each other.

"Yo ho, there is actually a gift from me." Erin held the open gift box and looked at Corina in surprise, "Besides, I actually like it a little unexpectedly." ”

"Why, did you study my preferences?"

"Cut, me, who has a study of your preferences, it's just a random purchase"

"Tsk." Erin smiled noncommittally and turned to look at Charlotte again, "Your Majesty, what do you think of my gift?" ”

Charlotte looked at the list with the title written in red letters in her hand, and she couldn't laugh, she couldn't laugh, so she could only say helplessly: "Well, it's really unexpected to me."

"Everyone."

A sudden voice interrupted the conversation among the ladies.

They all looked back in unison, only to see Mrs. Blazer, who was staring at the carpet with her hands on her hips.

So they followed each other's gaze back to the carpet.

On the carpet, strange patterns are shining, and in the middle of it, a philosopher's stone with crystal parts is placed.

"It's . Projection magic array? ”

"No, it's not." Mrs. Blazer shook her finger, "It's the Video Magic Array." ”

Her palms flickered, and she turned to the long sofa as she manipulated the circle, beckoning to the crowd on the edge of the pile of gifts: "Come here, Lynn, Rosa, Reg, and the ladies." ”

"This is the best way to end God's Day."

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other and began to move.

Under the brilliant candlelight of the dome, seven people sat or stood, gathered together.

At this time, Lynn had already taken over the control of the magic circle from her mother and sat in the middle of the sofa.

Turning his head, he looked at everyone's faces, and suddenly smiled helplessly.

"Everyone, be happy."

This everyone mainly refers to Regg, as well as Charlotte and Corina.

The former probably didn't like it and didn't fit in, and the two young ladies in the back had a nervous look on their faces.

was "named and criticized", they subconsciously looked at each other, looked at each other's appearance, as if they saw another self, and the next moment, they couldn't help laughing.

"yes, that's it, be happy."

Lynn smiled and looked at the projection.

"I'll count to three."

"Three"

The two young ladies took a deep breath.

"Two"

The duchess unconsciously pinched the flesh on someone's shoulder.

"One"

Lynn smiled a rarely, bright smile.

"Click-"

The magic array shone brightly, and a freeze-frame picture quietly appeared on the magic circle.

"Yikes!"

Knocking on that picture, Rosalind was the first to exclaim: "Why didn't my eyes open!" How did you shoot this!! ”

She gritted her teeth and beat her eldest brother, and Lynn could only helplessly spread her hands: "I shouted just now, what can you do if you are distracted." ”

"Damn, I, I."

"I think this moment of stagnation was a good choice." Irene said solemnly, "Rosa is very cute." ”

"Huh?" Rosalind was slightly stunned, turned her head to look around, and saw that everyone nodded in affirmation, so she held her face in surprise and shyness, "Yes, it's okay, in fact, I think so too"

"Poofβ€”"

Lynn, who couldn't hold back, laughed, and immediately coughed dryly to cover it up a little, and said, "I actually think this is pretty good." ”

"Rosa, you should be free tomorrow, find a time to find a shop, and rub it out."

"Good!"

Rosalind happily complied.

After doing this, today's festival can be regarded as officially over.

When he sent the ladies away one by one, he was the only one left in the living room, and the projection circle that had not yet been turned off.

Standing beside the circle, looking at the projection above, he reached out and lightly touched some ripples on the projection.

If only time could be like this projection, forever frozen in the here and now.

Then his story will probably end with the best ending.
