The Happy Life of a Duchess

It wasn't a day or two since Mary didn't like Margaret.

However, because Margaret's life returned to a peaceful daily life later, Mary also knew that it was not easy, and her attitude was relatively better.

Hearing that Margaret just came over, Adele was a little surprised.

After Adele changed into more formal clothes that could meet guests, she learned about it from the housekeeper.

Margaret didn't stay long, and she came here suddenly without posting a post in advance, but it wasn't for any urgent matter, but she came here to deliver things in person.

"So, this is the peony?"

Adele looked at the two pots of peonies in front of her with surprise on her face.

Adele doesn't know flowers very well, and she knows even less about peony, a variety of flowers.

But she knew that the two pots of peonies in front of her were so delicate and beautiful, with plump and beautiful flowers, they must be the best of them.

Even if it wasn't a top-notch rare species—she really couldn't tell the difference, but it looked beautiful to the naked eye, the kind of outstanding beauty that would attract and fall in love with it at a glance.

Of these two pots of peonies, the petals in one pot are all pink, and the petals are scattered open, like a beauty lazy, the color is pink and tender, and it is very cute, and it looks soft and coquettish.

The peony in the other pot is white with some pink at the base of the petals, which is different from the cherry pink in the other pot. The white powder mixed in this pot looks more beautiful, but the sense of nobility brought by the snow white color comes from the pink The tender color is slightly neutralized, but it shows a different flavor even more.

Adele looked at the two potted flowers in surprise and surprise.

"My God," she and Mary praised, "before, Margaret wrote to me saying that she was going to live in the country for a while, and I specially asked someone to prepare a very quiet rural farmhouse for her. She couldn't get used to it, so I gave her a lot of things."

"...I originally thought that she just wanted to pursue a kind of tranquility in the countryside that was different from the flashy atmosphere in the city. She said she wanted a place with beautiful flowers, but I didn't think too much about it. It just happened to be there. There are a few families in the countryside that plant a lot of flowers, and they are specialized flower farmers... But I never thought that she actually went to learn the craft of planting flowers?!"

"My God, she's a genius!" Adele couldn't stop praising.

"It was said earlier that she is extremely intelligent, and she has acquired a lot of talent through self-study. She is also exceptionally good at art. That is to say, she was restless before and couldn't play the piano or rest quietly. Of course, this is also due to the environment."

"Being harassed by those troublesome men, she also has to think about her own livelihood. In the past, she had to think about repaying her debts... How can she find real peace like this. I am also worried that she will be immersed in religion wholeheartedly. It seems a bit too lonely to want to enter a monastery and be alone for a lifetime..."

"Ah, my God, I really didn't think of this..." Adele shook her head again and again, but her face was full of smiles.

"But she's really good, and she can learn a thing or two about this kind of skill...just as she likes flowers, my God, it really couldn't be better."

"I think so too." Mary didn't like to say yes, but Jenny was different.

Jenny was also surprised when she saw the flowers, and felt that Margaret had indeed become very different.

"I guess she must be in a particularly good mood now. Only a person with a peaceful mood can grow such beautiful flowers." Jenny added while praising.

"Oh, by the way, she just came back not long ago and happened to pass by Provence Street. Knowing that you have been busy recently, she didn't come to bother you, so she sent these two potted flowers as one of the gifts."

"I must take it to Duval's house. I will take good care of these two pots of flowers, and I will have someone to take care of them!" Adele said loudly, and Jenny nodded immediately, and these two pots of beautiful peonies will be gone soon Included in her dowry.

A few people don't understand the price of flowers sold outside, let alone how much this beautiful peony is worth.

But Adele herself didn't intend to sell it. Whether it was expensive or cheap was Margaret's wish. Maybe she knew that if she just gave jewelry, Adele would think of a way to return the money to her. Margaret turned to this kind of thing cultivated by her own hands.

Margaret's embroidery and other things can only be said to be acceptable. Of course, she is beautiful and has a good aesthetic, but like many people, she is not very good at making clothes or knitting sweaters by herself.

Adele has dedicated people here, there are many tailors and designers, and there is a "brand" that she has brought on the road step by step. No matter how well Margaret does it, she may not be better than the professional ones.

But anyway, Marigot really gave her a huge surprise.

Adele was still admiring as she walked back.

Mary listened for a while, and went to work elsewhere. She still couldn't bear to admit Margaret's change and excellence, but she wouldn't say those bitter words anymore, and at most she kept silent.

Jenny followed Adele, and she didn't have that much dislike for Margaret, and her attitude had always been to follow Adele.

Adele was worried at first, so Jenny was worried too.

But later Adele verified Margaret's excellence and recognized her, so Jenny also changed her attitude and began to try to accept her outstanding side.

As a heroine, and a beautiful and outstanding heroine who can make some people worry about and never forget, Margaret's personal charm is beyond doubt.

Her squeamishness, beauty, self-willedness... or her empathy, talent, and high artistic level are all her attractions, and many men are deeply impressed by her charm.

Those prejudices aside, there was something admirable about Margaret.

What makes Adele most happy and touched is that her kindness is consistent from beginning to end, and she yearns for the pure and beautiful from the beginning to the end. If there is any regret, it is probably the incompleteness of love.

But if compared to that tragic death situation, there is no love without love.

At least now she seems to be living a good life, with a good mentality, relaxed, and has such skills.

"Maybe she can open a flower shop." Jenny said with a smile.

"I think this is easier to realize than my idea of ​​a tavern and a small hotel. As long as you help her arrange those troublesome places, such as finding a good place, getting approval, and establishing good neighbor relations—— It is also possible to deal with some street thugs, but as long as this is in a better place, you don’t have to worry about security issues.”

Jenny has already started to worry about Margaret. These problems are also things she may have to face in the future, and there are even things like purchasing goods, planting places, and so on.

But unlike Jenny who pursues complete independence, Margaret can handle these things well with the help of Mr. Duke. She only needs to take care of those flowers with peace of mind, which is what she likes and can accept Work.

What she earns is her own, what she loses...

There is no loss in opening a flower shop.

Now they are all cultivated by themselves, and it may cost a little more to buy some rare varieties, but Margaret is doing it alone, and it is impossible to go to the mass production situation of dozens of pots, and only sell a few pots. A basin is a basin.

Of course, if it came in clumps of roses, it might be better sold near the theater, and it might be more seasonal, and the profit would be higher. These are purely based on her personal thoughts.

"You're right. I'll write to her later and ask her if she has any thoughts on this."

Adele didn't expect her to make a living and make money, and she didn't think it was a big deal if her father, the duke, was willing to support her. Compared with spending money on those lovers, it was like sponsoring a promising girl Is it bad for Margaret?

The main reason is that she thinks that what Jenny mentioned can barely be regarded as a career.

When a woman has her own business, her state is different. Whether it is for the family or for the individual, the sense of responsibility or the natural sense of independence is completely different from when there is nothing.

In this regard, Adele has done so much so far, and she has a deep understanding.

And she is always worried that Margaret's current life is not rich in content. She usually does various hobbies, plays the piano, sings and listens to operas, and then goes to church and devotes herself to religion...

Adele was afraid that she would spend too much time in her free time. First, she would be easily harassed by men like Armand, and second, she would think too much when she was free. If she thought too much, she would easily go astray.

Margaret and Adele, the time-traveling Xibei are not the same.

According to the original book, she, like the original owner's princess, has a lung disease with similar symptoms.

However, after Adele crossed over, it seemed to be cured naturally, but at this time, there is no reliable medical plan for lung disease or similar breathing-related problems, and even Adele does not know whether the original owner and her are real. Some of them suffer from lung disease instead of other diseases, and there is no way to find out and cure them right now.

And she clearly remembered that it was after Margaret's life returned to depravity that her lung problems recurred and even worsened.

Maybe it's her poor physique, maybe it's the influence of the depraved life of a courtesan, maybe it's related to irregular life and diet...

Anyway, relying on recuperation, it seems to be able to ease and even look healthy in the early stage.

But if there is another toss, if Margaret becomes ill like this, then sheds tears and dies like this... then both Adele and the Duke's father will be sad.

Adele still doesn't know how much her own father loves Margaret, but after supporting her for so long, she is looking forward to seeing her get better little by little, and finally waited for her to become a good girl, but because All kinds of external forces couldn't resist and returned to the original bad days, and then died of illness?

Adele felt very scary thinking about it, and it was very unacceptable.

At any rate, she is her favorite heroine who is somewhat similar to herself and has spent so much energy, affection and money. She always hopes to live longer with her in this strange yet familiar era.

To put it emotionally, Adele must be a different person to Margaret.

It is really not easy to find someone who is so similar to yourself in this world.

Although now with Adele's training and growth, the two of them are becoming less and less alike because of their temperament. Adele has become capable and neat, while Margaret is as soft and slender as ever.

But things like fate are not always easy.

Adele cherishes it all.
