In the evening, the girl, who had been busy with Sophie for a day, finally got time to rest.

At this time, no one will be left by the viscount's side, except for the personal valet, and the rest of the servants will return to the bunk to rest, and the next day, before dawn, they have to get up to work.

Seven or eight girls don't have a good time living in a room, they have neither privacy nor freedom.

But as a maid, what more freedom do you need? As soon as you close your eyes every day, you can sleep like a dead pig.

As the days passed, the young and beautiful kitchen maid became acquainted with many people, including a third-class manservant who often took food from her, and a first-class manservant who occasionally slipped to the kitchen door to make fun of the maids.

The status of the servants varied according to their rank.

The kitchen maid is paid no more than five pounds a year, only the head chef will have an annual salary of ten pounds, while the first-class manservant and the valet have an annual salary of twenty to thirty pounds, and as for the Hill butler, the annual salary is nearly fifty pounds, which is the highest annual salary of the servant among them.

All the inferior servants want to be among the ranks of first-class servants, but unfortunately, first-class servants must not only be literate, but also have a housekeeper as a guarantee and special training, which is not something that ordinary people can squeeze into.

On this day, Viscount Ansel went outside early in the morning for horseback riding, it was the most beautiful spring in Yorkshire, the trees were verdant, wildflowers were blooming, and the fresh air around the manor made Viscount Ansel feel much better for dinner in the morning.

The maids gathered around excitedly, laughing and whispering about the viscount's slightly curly brown hair and the deep, gray eyes.

The viscount is handsome, handsome with the elegance of a gentleman, but more often than not, a wildness hidden in the depths of the pupils.

When he was in London, he planned to open a factory, and later went to sea with a few adventurous classmates, making a lot of money, and not long after returning to Yorkshire, he opened several factories.

Yorkshire's cheap labor, coupled with the viscount's excellent business ability, soon made a lot of money, and at the same time envied the nobles, it also attracted the admiration of countless young ladies.

The maids dreamed of climbing into the Viscount's bed, and they didn't expect to have a son with the Viscount, but only hoped to get more benefits from the Viscount, and even if they didn't become maids in the future, they would have enough dowry when they went home to marry.

However, Anse Air is a highly educated young man, unlike his amorous father, he not only controls his own desires and desires, but also makes people vomit blood, which basically kills the maids' minds, but this does not prevent the girls from talking about him behind his back.

There is such a master, just looking at it is satisfying.

When the girl followed Sophie in the kitchen to choose vegetables, she heard a voice, looked out the window, and happened to see the viscount dressed in riding clothes, with a straight back, his fair face was not weak at all in the early morning sun, and his gray eyes shone with a cold and dazzling light, and he looked like a graceful and luxurious prince.

The maids held back their screams, hid in the shadows, looked at him excitedly, and when he entered, politely and respectfully walked over to meet him.

In the afternoon, Lady Elenda returned, and she went into the Viscount's study, and consulted with him about a banquet.

The viscount refused.

Lady Elenda was dissatisfied: "You are twenty-five years old, and it is not the time to fool around, there are many nobles' daughters who are very fond of you, this is a good opportunity, you should seize the opportunity."

The viscount looked at his mother coldly, and the corners of his thin mouth lifted a smile that didn't reach the bottom of his eyes, "You always think about me like this, if you want to do it, just do it." ”

The next day was the busiest day in the castle, and a young lady in a beautiful dress took her father's hand and arrived as scheduled, with beautiful makeup, elegant conversation, and a bright and reserved smile on her face, bringing the temperament of a noble lady to the extreme.

Mrs. Elenda changed into a very close-fitting dress, and the rose-colored corset almost broke her waist, so that she could only stretch her body and greet her guests at the door.

Viscount Ansel stood aside and drank lightly, he was surrounded by several girls, all of whom were the daughters of knights, although they had the status of nobles, and the family fiefdom was very small, and the assets of the family were not even comparable to that of lawyers, if they could not find their satisfactory partners when they were young and beautiful, their fathers would not be able to get a dowry for a son in the future, which could be called a disaster for them.

Viscount Anse El dealt lukewarmly with the ladies, and as a gentleman, he could not categorically refuse the approach of the ladies, but he did not like them very much.

The girls saw that he was not interested, and did not give up the opportunity to hook up with him, from music to painting, all of them did not want to arouse his interest, but they were disappointed, and in the end of the conversation, they could not understand what the viscount was saying.

He was far more knowledgeable than any of them.

Anse El looked at their embarrassing ugliness, and his heart was so disdainful that he wanted to fool him after only learning the skin, it was really a dream.

In order not to annoy people, the ladies retreated in embarrassment, and there was another person next to the viscount.

When Amilia, the daughter of Count Allen, saw this, she walked up to him with red wine, "Dear Viscount, can I dance with you?" ”

The lady's invitation was not refused, and he took Amelia by the hand and walked onto the dance floor and danced a romantic ballroom dance with her.

When he stopped, the young lady of the earl's family chatted with him very naturally.

"I heard you used to love sailing?"

"Yes." Anse El replied.

"That's great, I'm very interested in sea adventures," said Amelia, "can you tell me where you've been?"

The conversation was undoubtedly successful, and for the next twenty minutes, the Viscount explained to her in detail the places he had visited.

Amelia sighed, "I didn't expect that your fleet has visited India and so many eastern countries, you are really an amazing explorer."

"You're wrong," the viscount smiled modestly, "but I don't consider myself an explorer. ”

"Oh?" Amelia's eyes widened and she said in surprise, "Why do you think that?"

"Adventures may sound romantic, but they are not for a gentleman like me."

Amelia didn't expect him to say such a thing, and smiled, "Could it be that you have encountered something unhappy at sea?" ”

"Nope." Of course, Ansel would not disappoint the fact that he sailed just to make money, "I would rather live a stable life." ”

This resonated with Amelia, "That's a good thing you said, Lord Viscount, I think so too. She showed a timely yearning, "I also want to find a stable marriage, if I can have two children, it will be wonderful!" ”

Ansel, who doesn't like children at all," ...... You're right, miss. ”
