It happened to be afternoon tea time when Bai Shu returned to Dawson Manor.
At this moment, almost all relatives and friends have arrived, and the letter of succession to the title sent by the House of Lords has already arrived, just waiting for the party to come back and go through the ceremony.
The ceremony is usually after afternoon tea, that is, before the sun sets. After all, there is darkness after sunset. Although there are not so many rules here, it also expresses a meaning of endless life.
"Little Susu, do I have to call you Earl Dawson when I see you in the future?" Xiao Jin asked enviously, "You are the first one to inherit the title in a family as large as our earl family, The last one was more than 100 years ago, it really gives us a face!"
"He is also the first earl to marry the prince." Miser added.
"It's so exciting!" Xiao Jin sighed, "Then I will be the queen's brother in the future?"
As he spoke, he cleared his throat and said, "For Aiqing, please call my uncle!"
Megren immediately said: "Uncle Guo, please sit down and serve tea to Uncle Guo!"
This statement made everyone present burst into laughter.
Bai Shu smiled and flipped through the inheritance letter, which was only a single piece of paper. He felt that the gilded words on it were so hot that he didn't dare to touch it, as if he was afraid of losing it. It still feels unreal.
While in a daze, Miser said, "Guess who I saw outside just now?"
"Xia Xun?" Xiao Jin said immediately, "I saw him just now."
"It's not Xia Xun." Miser retorted instinctively, and then said in surprise: "But why is he here? To celebrate his uncle Bronte's loss of wealth?"
"When I saw him, he was still huddled next to Duke Wood and talking!" Xiao Jin said coldly: "You don't know if he is embarrassed or not, but thick-skinned people are different. There is him."
Meagren patted him and said, "You can't talk nonsense, after all, there is no evidence."
"What do you say is Xia Xun's identity?" Bai Shu asked, he had paid attention to this person last time, but Luoshen took him there, and always felt that the relationship between these two people was very delicate.
Xiao Jin was stared at by Migren, and he was a little embarrassed and said: "We just heard, I heard that this Xia Xun is the illegitimate child of your father-in-law and mistress, and because he is a Beta, he was raised by Xia Yin Come on, anyway, uncle and nephew are not separated, and they are not other people."
"..." Bai Shu was a little speechless, could it be that Xia Xun went to Luoshen repeatedly for the sake of brotherhood? "Where did you hear that?"
"This is the rumor among nobles who have nothing to do." Megren said: "A group of noble ladies who have nothing to do, have afternoon tea every day, and the masters drink to the west, and they talk about things that have no basis."
"I also don't think it should be an illegitimate child." Xiao Jin rubbed his chin and took up the topic again: "As far as he feels to me, he seems to be interested in our Highness. Usually, whose younger brother and elder brother always make encounters? I don't Will be with my brother..."
When Xiao Jin said this, the eyeballs that were stared at by Migren protruded. He turned his head and looked at the thoughtful Bai Shu. Obviously he thought the same way, and suddenly realized that this was not purely looking for trouble. Brother, why don't you worry, everyone is pregnant, what if the true anger comes out?
Immediately, he asked Miser again: "You just said it wasn't Xia Xun, so who did you see?"
Miser said, "It's Simpson."
"..." Well, it's not as good as Xia Xun.
Since the position of earl is second only to the duke, the power granted by the empire is also very high. They can appoint and replace viscounts and baronial families within their jurisdiction, and the family of Viscount Mario, where the Simpson family is located, is also under the jurisdiction of Dawson Manor. within.
That's why when Bai Shu's reputation was so bad at that time, Bai Jinnan could still ask Viscount Mario to donate his eldest son to marry him, and he was confident.
Therefore, Simpson's presence today is nothing more than a representative of all viscounts and barons within the jurisdiction.
"That kid is not bad, he deserves someone who loves him." Bai Shu gave a rather pertinent evaluation, that big boy who lives in the sun, it's not a pity, after all, their relationship is also budding He was trampled to death by Luoshen, at most he was a little uncomfortable, after all, everyone has a little bit of shame.
But today, as long as the other party doesn't take the initiative to find him, the two of them won't have the chance to face each other, and it won't be embarrassing.
Just as she was thinking about it, Mrs. Pan De ran over panting and said, "Master, Mrs. Helena and Master Bai Qu refused to leave. I asked a few maids to tidy her up and she refused to let her. They even injured people. What are you going to do with this?"
"Aren't you leaving?" Xiao Jin was more angry than Bai Shu, got up and said: "She was so powerful in the morning, she is quite old? Could it be that she still wants to rely on you for the rest of her life? Should she show some face?"
"Isn't your second uncle dependent on your family for the rest of your life?" Meggeren suddenly asked.
"My second uncle thinks about my father wholeheartedly, can he be like her?"
In fact, in the big manor, things like Lai Yishou can be found everywhere. After all, there are some brothers who have few brothers or have good relationships. They originally helped the manor owner manage the manor. And work can also use the resources of the manor owner, in short, there is no harm.
"..." Meggeren said awkwardly, he didn't know who complained about his second uncle's family being so annoying in front of him last time, so he said to Bai Shu, "Anyway, there are so many people now, she probably waited for this moment to explode, You have to pay attention, after all, you have to think about my prince brother."
Bai Shu let out a cold snort, knowing that he would not let it go so easily, "Let's go and have a look."
"She seems to have called some people from the media to say that you are ungrateful." Mrs. Pender said as she walked, "Many guests also went before, but Lao Wen persuaded them to leave, but there are still some to wait and see." lively."
While talking, they came to the third banquet hall.
This is the innermost hall of the manor, where the most important guests are usually received, but today, there are countless important guests, so it is also open.
It's just that she didn't make trouble in her room on the second floor, but ran to the living room on the first floor.
Until Bai Shu came, he was still holding Aunt Bai Xi and crying, "That's why I'm stupid. I didn't know how to plan for myself after following the master, and I got nothing. If we girls really go out like this now, we can't do it." Sleeping on the street? Even if they want to drive us away, I have to wait for us Bai Qu and Xue Li to get married and start a business before I can follow them. Otherwise, where are we going? Aren’t you driving us to death? ?”
At this time, those pitiful people have already started to discuss self-righteously.
"I think what my wife said is not too much. Our three brothers all live in my manor. As long as they are conscious, it is just two more pairs of chopsticks. There is no need to do so."
"I also think that the rules are the rules, but everyone has to talk about personal feelings, right? And they have lived together for so long, even if they have no feelings, they have to have some sympathy, right?"
"Isn't this just relying on the prince, otherwise how dare you be so confident?"
"That's right, look at Mrs. Helena's crying. How could she bow her head to anyone before? Isn't it just for the sake of her children? No matter how good the stepmother is, it's useless."
"That's it..." The last person echoed, turned around and saw Bai Shu, and stopped talking embarrassingly.
Helena also saw him at this moment, so she came up to her and said, "Su'er, I'm going to call you Lord Earl now, please don't drive us away, okay? How can we live well if we really go out? Your brother You just joined the Fourth Army Corps a few days ago, and your younger sister is also studying in a famous school. If you really have to leave, what will I do to support them? You won’t bear it, will you?”
"But you didn't seem to say that in the morning." Bai Shu looked at her very calmly and said.
"I was completely deceived in the morning. Now I know I was wrong. Give your brother and sister a way, and you can do whatever you want me to do." Most of what Helena said was sincere. After all, the two of them The child's future is guaranteed in the name of the manor, and even the quota for enlisting in the [-]th Army is based on the manor's quota. If you leave, it's really over.
"I didn't check how much money you have been greedy for the manor for so many years, and you should restrain yourself a little bit, and as far as I know, my father left a large sum of money for you, and the house has been found for you. I'm afraid there is no such thing People know better than Aunt Bai Xi, and besides, if you really want to stay here, will you embarrass me in front of a group of people who can't tell right from wrong?"
Bai Shu's words were unhurried, and it was only at the last sentence that the character of the people present was smacked. All of them who watched the excitement were ridiculed by the newly promoted young Earl Dawson.
So some savvy touched their noses and left. After all, many of them depended on Dawson Manor for their livelihood.
But there are also those who don't know the way, or those who were waiting to see the show, but still hang on.
Helena was relying on this group of people, and then said: "I don't want to embarrass you, but I really have no choice. If, if you really don't want to, can you wait another seven or eight days? Wait for my house to be furnished Okay, let’s go again? There’s nothing inside now, so we can’t sleep on the floor, right?”
"..." Bai Shu looked at her, and felt that this person's real intention was to stay for a few more days, not to stay forever. As for her intention, he still couldn't see through it for the time being, but this woman would definitely not let it go In the final analysis, he just wanted to give him a fatal blow.
Looking at the time, place and occasion, it should also be in her arrangement.
"Okay." Bai Shu said: "I hope that after seven or eight days, you will keep your word."
Helena wept with joy when she heard this, she seemed to be extremely moved, if Bai Shu hadn't hid for a while, she would have hugged him and wept bitterly.
When everyone dispersed, Helena went back to her room crying, and Bai Shu said to Mrs. Pan De: "You ask Lao Wen to find a few strong servants to prepare, and after the banquet in the evening, the guests will all disperse." When it's time, take her out with her people and things, don't be too late, it will affect the sleeping time."
Mrs. Pender looked surprised and said, "How many days?"
"No." Bai Shu said: "She doesn't count what she says, I learned from her."
Mrs. Pande immediately cheered up and said: "Young master, you have learned well, it should have been like this long ago, we don't lose face in front of others, who cares behind others!"
Originally, Bai Shu wanted to take Helena away that night, just to catch her off guard. After all, based on the proportion of her seven or eight days, this person would have to plan for at least four or five days.
But what made her miscalculation was that she actually made a move before that night.
The banquet at that time was coming to an end, and the guests had already left in twos and threes, but Luoshen still did not come back. It was a lie to say that he was not worried, but Bai Shu knew that Luoshen was not an unrestrained person, and he would definitely come back when he should come back Yes, must have been tripped up by some minor annoyance.
After seeing off nearly half of the guests, housekeepers Huaide and Lao Wen took his place, and then he went back to rest. On the way, he was entangled again by the three little ones who moved in on the first day. After presenting his talents, he was really exhausted. When he got up and was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a pungent smell of pheromones.
The reason why he is so sensitive now is that this Alpha has entered a susceptible period, and the other is that he is already a marked Omega, and he instinctively rejects the pheromones of an Alpha that does not belong to him.
When he got up to investigate, he suddenly heard the sound of the door being secured from the outside, and the person standing in front of the door was none other than the person Miser mentioned before the banquet, Simpson.
And beside Simpson, there was a perpetrator who was about to beat the three little ones, Bai Qu.
At this moment, almost all relatives and friends have arrived, and the letter of succession to the title sent by the House of Lords has already arrived, just waiting for the party to come back and go through the ceremony.
The ceremony is usually after afternoon tea, that is, before the sun sets. After all, there is darkness after sunset. Although there are not so many rules here, it also expresses a meaning of endless life.
"Little Susu, do I have to call you Earl Dawson when I see you in the future?" Xiao Jin asked enviously, "You are the first one to inherit the title in a family as large as our earl family, The last one was more than 100 years ago, it really gives us a face!"
"He is also the first earl to marry the prince." Miser added.
