Chapter 537: Noble and Cold

Alice shook her head, "The president is the best maid, how can I compare to her?"

"The president is not an earthling, so he doesn't need to be counted. Betsy reacted immediately, and continued, "Who else can compare to you but the president?"

"Ann, Ann, don't worry. ”

Luna stopped them, "This time, Alice is working, and the client heard that her bartending is a must, and asked her to go by name." ”

"I was very touched by the importance that Mr. Marquis valued me. Alice said with a sad face, "But if I go to serve, I will break the law." ”

Luna smiled and said, "Why would you break the law?"

"The court forbade me to be hired as a maid......"

"Then your service is not hired, right?"

"Not hired?" Alice was stunned for a moment, "President, what's going on?"

"Actually, you are a kind-hearted girl who saw a foreign friend getting married in England, and she was busy due to the lack of manpower, so she took the initiative to help. Luna said solemnly, "So, you're not a hired maid at all, just a volunteer." ”

"Volunteers?"

"Yes, can volunteering be considered a hire?" said Luna, "It's called helping others, and you're a model of a new generation of good British citizens!"

"Wait, wait!" Becky felt that something was wrong here, "Alice has gone to volunteer, isn't that just working as a day job?"

"How can it be for nothing?" Luna shook her head, "Volunteering is just an external statement. Privately, Alice will still be paid. ”

"That's right. Betsy thought for a moment and asked again. "But we're all hired maids. Wouldn't it be abrupt and false to say that Alice alone was a volunteer?"

"It's simpler. Luna said without hesitation, "The people employed by our maid guild simply appeared together in the name of collective volunteering, and each of them wore a volunteer sign on their bodies to show the demeanor and image of the good citizens of London." ”

"Then there's no problem at all!" Betsy said gleefully, "what a court injunction." Wouldn't it be a bypass? ”

Luna coughed, "You think it's easy to circumvent now because we have organization, more social avenues, and more ways to do things. ”

"yes. Alice said with emotion, "If I were a maid who didn't join the association, I wouldn't have encountered such an opportunity as today to have a patron who is willing to secretly hire me." ”

"The so-called bad record, the so-called court injunction, is nothing more than the evaluation system of the upper class. Specialized in controlling the little people at the bottom. "However, this evaluation system will fail in another world. If Alice went to France on the European continent, or simply emigrated to the Americas. In another country, the negative evaluation of the English aristocracy, the ban of the English courts. It simply won't work. ”

Betsy pondered, "But an ordinary maid is almost incapable of leaving the country. can only be bound by bad records and employment bans for the rest of his life, and it is difficult to turn over. ”

Alice smiled. "Speaking of which, the foreign marquis is not a member of the English aristocracy, and he is from the outside world, so it is no wonder that he doesn't care what they think of me. ”

"Of course. Betsy continued, "It seems that the Marquis is going to marry a Jewish woman, not to enter the circle of the orthodox English aristocracy, otherwise he would have taken seriously what the nobles said of you." ”

Alice looked at Luna, "President, what are the preferences and habits of the merciful Marquis?"

"Why do you ask this?"

"He's been so eager to help me, and of course I'm going to do my best to serve him. "So I wanted to know more about his needs, maybe it would be better for him." ”

"yes, yes. Betsy also said, "Does the Marquis have any special requests?" ”

"Special requests?" Luna thought for a moment, "this marquis, who likes servants with temperament. ”

"Oh, what kind of temperament does he like?"

Alice and Betsy thought to themselves, this employer is so luxurious, of course, the requirements for maids are not only the ability to work, but also a set of standards in terms of temperament. But when it comes to temperament, the sisters of our association are very outstanding in the entire London maid world, so don't worry too much.

"That's right. Luna pondered, "This marquis, I would like to see you appear noble and cold. ”

"Noble, noble and cold!?"

Betsy felt stars popping up on her head, "Why should our maids be noble and cold, shouldn't it be gentle and submissive, or sunny and energetic?"

Alice couldn't understand either, and hesitated and said, "People cost us a lot of money to do things, and we are noble and cold to our employers, is this appropriate?"

"This noble and cold, of course, does not make you noble and cold to your employer. Luna explained, "When it's the day of the wedding, you'll be glamorous to the guests, and you'll be able to meet the Marquis's request, understand?"

"Clear, understood. ”

Betsy said with difficulty, "But there is another question, we have never practiced this kind of temperament, how can we be noble and cold?"

"Yes, the guests who came that day should all be people of status and status, almost all of them are high-class nobles, right?" Alice sighed and said, "How can we be noble and cold in the face of these people?"

"What happened to the nobles?"

Luna said disdainfully, "You're volunteers, volunteering to help with a foreign friend's wedding, and you're not a hired maid, do you need to feel inferior to the guests?"

"This ......," Alice said hesitantly, "even if we don't feel inferior in our hearts, we are still a long way from being noble and cold." ”

"The so-called noble and cold, as long as you despise each other from the bottom of your heart, you can naturally show indifference and disdain. ”

Luna paused for a moment and said, "Alice, let me ask you, if you meet those nobles who framed you and insulted you, wouldn't you even dare to despise them, and would you still look up to them respectfully?"

"No!" Alice blushed, "of course I despise them, President!"

"That's right, so you see, it's easy to be noble and cold. ”

"President, it's still possible to despise and despise some notorious junk aristocrats, especially a few famous villains who maliciously abuse maids. But if you despise all the nobles who come to the door, it will be very difficult. ”

"Don't worry. What nobleman doesn't have a black history?" Luna said unhurriedly, "Isn't our maid guild always communicating about the dirty things behind the aristocratic family, as long as these things are collected and sorted out, everyone knows them by heart, and when the time comes, no matter which nobleman you meet, when you think of his bad deeds and ugliness, you can easily despise him." ”

Betsy served, "President, your idea is really amazing. ”

Luna smirked, "I just said, noble and glamorous, it's actually very easy to do. ”

"But there will be very bad consequences for doing so!" Alice suddenly cried out.

Betsy wondered, "What's the matter, Alice, what's the consequences?"

Alice's face was full of worry, "If everyone despises the nobles at this wedding, most of them will hold a grudge, and I am afraid that they will not want to hire us people in the future." I couldn't have been used by those nobles anymore, but it didn't matter. But Betsy, you may never have the opportunity to be a maid again in England!"

"Haha, Alice, so you're worried about this. Betsy laughed, "Actually, I've already thought that this time I can earn enough pension money for my job." So, even if those nobles don't hire me anymore, so what? I can devote all my thoughts to the development of the association, as well as to the training and defense of the sisters, just like you. ”

"You think so, but what about the others?"

"I will make it clear to everyone the requirements of this job, as well as the possible consequences, whether you want to go or not, it is all voluntary. And I believe that there are many people who are willing to make the same choice as me. Betsy smiled and said, "I think that Mr. Marquis must have understood the price of making us noble and cold, so he offered us a sky-high salary of 100 pounds a day, which has solved our worries." ”

Alice didn't know what to say.

"Don't worry, Alice. Becky's face was full of excitement, "Now that we have been cleared up, since we have decided that this is the last time in the maid's career, we should seize the opportunity to have a happy and noble and cold show, and completely despise and despise those nobles who never treat us as equals." ”

"I see. Alice also smiled, "Then let this wedding be the perfect sound for us maids." In the future, there will never be a single event in England where a group of maids who do not take the aristocracy seriously at all. (To be continued......)
