Chapter 39 Tea Party
Zanitaria Castle.
Regarding Earl Oneine's tea party, Alvin felt that it was enough to dress up properly, and there was no need to be too grand. First, his current identity was just an ordinary painter; second, he did not want people to mistakenly think that he regarded the tea party as important.
Onian became even more casual. Under a light lemon wool shawl, there was a light white long skirt, with fragrant shoulders and snow neck and tender arms, all of which were filled with freshness and comfort.
The two walked to the Earl Onine's mansion, and many carriages had been parked outside the luxurious mansion. Alvin looked at the carriages a little and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. It was as Tyriel's "novas" said, these so-called nobles had few gold coins in their pockets.
Looking around, the styles of these carriages are luxurious and spacious, but few of them are painted and full of mottled. Even the coachmen sitting there seem to be listless, as if they are worried about their salary this month, fearing that the owner is too embarrassed to afford it.
Alvin and the concierge reported their names, but did not mention that they were invited by Miss Feiya. He did not expect that the concierge had heard of him, and was very surprised.
"It seems that the painting is really famous." Alvin sighed in his heart.
When the concierge heard that it was the hot mysterious painter, he mistakenly thought that Alvin was invited by the count, so he hurried to the front hall to find the housekeeper. He thought that since he was the count's distinguished guest, his identity was not qualified to exchange greetings here, so he had to change the housekeeper to receive it.
"Oh, it's Mr. Alvin," the butler hurriedly ran out of the front hall when he heard the doorman's notice. "Is he here to add a tea party? Come on, I'll lead you in."
The housekeeper was quite enthusiastic, leading Alvin and Onian through the magnificent mansion, and quickly walked from the front hall lobby to the garden in the backyard.
During this period, Alvin still sighed at the luxurious furnishings of the Earl's Mansion. The walls made of Huishan jade and the randomly composed brown-patterned lines on the walls were filled with gorgeousness. The flat floor tiles made of mud-mosha flakes were laid from the front hall to the backyard. Others used this stone for stone carvings in the Earl's Mansion, but in this Earl's Mansion, they could only be used to make floor tiles. All the details demonstrated the wealthy family of the owner of the mansion.
"It seems that not all nobles are in a down-and-out situation. The Earl's family is defeated." Alvin said in this heart.
The butler led the two of them to step into the lively back garden and attracted a lot of gazes.
"What a handsome pair of young men." Everyone sighed in their hearts.
As for the young man, this man, Yuyi Yaoqi, with a sharp sword in his eyes, and a smile on his lips that was ignorant of teasing or romantic. It really made the girls present sway and their hearts moved secretly. Some looked at it for a while and felt that it was not enough. They had to take a look at it or another one to satisfy them. Some even ignored the etiquette and their eyes were wide open. If it weren't for the elders on the side twisting their wrists or stomping their toes, they would probably be reluctant to come back to their senses.
Pretty, it is about this girl, pretty and beautiful, and her beauty is poor. Although she is covered by a magical woven hat, she cannot hide her fairy-looking appearance. After this woman present appeared, she became a foil like a flower on the brim of the hat. The men present had six souls.
Lord, after looking at the person for two or three, he immediately took a look at the person who was the one who could not care about his identity at all. Fortunately, those who were single, were all so rude, and they really helped the girl get hatred.
"I didn't expect that the spring in the north would be so 'warm'." Onian looked at the sunny garden and let out a long sigh. While suffocating her cheeks, she sighed. Those who have been princesses in one country naturally would not care about the eyes of the people around her.
"Who said no?" Alvin also complained, then loosened the collar of his shirt. "At least you wear a hat, I was sunburned all the way."
Earl Onein came to his senses as soon as possible. He quickly came over and glanced at the butler as inquiring, and was asking, "Who are these two?"
The housekeeper was a little confused and looked at the count at a loss, as if saying, "Isn't this the guest you invited?"
After staring at the master and servant, the butler turned his face in shock and looked at Alvin and Onian.
At this time, the count's youngest daughter Feiya saw this and rushed over to save the scene.
"Father, they are the guests I invited." Feiya smiled and introduced to the count, "Here, this is the 'Alvin Ferrey' you always want to meet."
"Is this..." Feiya turned her gaze to Onian, then looked at Alvin again, and Xiaoyi asked.
"This is my wife." Alvin explained with a smile. His smile was a little unnatural, which was obviously related to an "adventure" a few days ago.
Onion raised his lips lightly and pretended not to know anything.
Feiya looked at Onian's charming appearance up close, and a trace of gloom flashed through her polite smile.
"So it's you." The Count interrupted the three of them with a very nervous look, and shouted happily at Alvin, "Your painting is really a masterpiece."
While speaking, the count held Alvin's hand enthusiastically, wishing he could shake the other party's arm.
"Go, go too far." Alvin smiled stiffly, trying hard to pull out his hand.
"What a beautiful pair of people," the count took a step back, looked at the young man in front of him carefully, and couldn't help but sigh. "Come on, I'll introduce you to everyone." The count put Alvin's hand on again and pulled him to walk into the crowd.
"Father, this is the guest I invited, so I should introduce it." Feiya stopped her father and muttered.
"Yes, I haven't asked you yet. Where did you know Mr. Alvin? You invited someone, and I'll say it differently from my father." The Count said with a stern face, "We are not prepared at all. It really spoiled you girls and didn't understand anything."
"Oh." Feiya lowered her head, "I just want to give everyone a surprise."
"Ha, my father is joking with you." The count leaned into Feiya's ear and whispered, "You can invite 'this' to me. My father has to reward you well, but you can't let your two sisters know..."
Feiya smiled and nodded in a clear way.
Alvin originally wanted to defend Feiya for a few words, but seeing that the father and daughter had reached a certain tacit understanding, she didn't
Talk again.
Then Earl Onein couldn't wait to lead the Elvins and his wife to the center of the garden. He knocked the pole of the goblet with a silver fork, and with the sound of "ding ding ding", everyone surrounded him. Everyone was curious about what "sacred" the young couple was.
Outside the crowd, Fia looked at Elvin and Onian holding hands, bulged her mouth and sighed in her heart: "It turns out that she is just the lucky woman in 'that night'."
"I believe you have heard that recently, a divine painting appeared on the dome of the Cathedral of Saint-Fabric." The Count said loudly, "But I asked the genius of the universal priests. Hey, I just couldn't ask for the reason, so I just pretended to say, 'It's a young painter who is unknown'."
The people in the garden originally thought that the Count was going to introduce the young couple who had just arrived, but they didn't expect that they would get to the painting of the Saint-Fabric Church, and they were all a little confused.
"I believe everyone is full of curiosity about this mysterious painter, right?" the count asked with a smile, his eyes swept around the nobles around him.
This is the truth. The people in the garden only heard the name of "Alvin Feilie" for a while, but did not see him. It is impossible to say that they are not curious.
"Next, I will introduce it grandly," the count raised his voice, unable to contain his excitement, his face turned red, "The one beside me is the famous 'Alvin Feilie', and the beautiful lady beside him is his wife."
After listening to the Count's introduction, the girls in the garden were all happy and sad.
For girls, a man with such a look and demeanor and such talent are naturally worthy of joy. Even Fei's two sisters were so mocking in the church at that time, and now they are also thinking about it.
But when his wife stood there, she was so bright and arrogant, and her temperament made the girls present feel ashamed. Even if they had thoughts, they could not hinder the feeling of being ashamed from the deepest part of their hearts.
For these noble men of all sizes in the garden, they breathed a sigh of relief. They thought the Count was going to introduce some big figure, but they turned out to be just a "painter".
In their opinion, no matter what Alvin looks like, the painter will always be a painter and cannot change his low status in serving the nobles.
Then they couldn't help but feel sorry for Onian beside Alvin, and they all sighed in their hearts: "How come such a beautiful woman, why did she fall in love with a painter without identity?"
Then, these noble women were wandering between self-deprecation and jealousy. After thinking about it carefully, they also secretly arranged it towards Onian, "Although they look so sarcastic, they probably have a background, not that good."
Alvin and Onion are both smart characters, so they can naturally feel the changes in the expressions of the people around them. How can the ambiguous contempt between the subtle expressions and the ambiguous contempt of these two people escape the eyes?
Alvin turned his face and looked at Onian, and couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.
Onion also looked back at him, calm and unscrupulous.
