The days when I was a maid in another world
Chapter 24 Heading to the Palace
January [-]st, the first day of the new year.
Except for the kitchen servants who have to finish breakfast before they can go on vacation, the rest of the maids are already on vacation.
And all the maids above do not include me.
According to Talis's instructions, I went to the third floor to find her after I got up and washed.
I didn't see Talis in the corridor on the third floor, so I went to the lord's bedroom, because at this time, Talis was probably helping the lord to get dressed.
I knocked on the door, and Talis's voice came from the room: "Donnie? Come in."
I opened the door and went in, only to see that Talis was making the bed, but the lord was not in the room.
"Tales, let me do it." I hurried over, while secretly wondering why the housekeeper wanted to work for me.
"It's done." She straightened up and looked at me, "I have something to tell you."
I stood in front of her, looked at her seriously, and expressed my willingness to listen carefully.
"Donnie, I don't have any suitable candidates right now, so I can only recommend you." She said without thinking at first, "After breakfast, the lord will go to the northern suburbs palace and spend the night there. Tang Ni, you are the maid accompanying me this time, because I want to recruit new people, as you know, the mansion is short of staff recently."
I quickly sorted out what she said, and asked, "You mean I want to accompany the lord to the palace for one night?"
"That's right." She nodded.
"Just me as a maid?"
"Yes." She nodded again.
Fuck, why do I feel that something is wrong?
I couldn't help frowning slightly, but for a while I couldn't think of an excuse to dismiss the matter.
"I know this may be difficult for you," Talis sighed softly, "After all, you have never worked as a personal attendant. But you don't need to be too nervous, you just need to follow what the lord tells you That's fine, I don't think he will make things difficult for you."
I was very suspicious of her last sentence.That bastard can spit chewed rice grains on my hand, I don't believe he won't make things difficult for me.
"Okay, it's settled." Talis didn't give me a chance to refuse at all, "You go to eat first, and go to the gate immediately after eating, don't make the lord wait too long."
Although I was reluctant in every possible way, I had to nod and agree.I went back to the little restaurant to eat something, and hurried to the gate at once.
From a distance, I saw a luxurious carriage parked at the gate, followed by a row of pro-guard soldiers, and Talis was standing beside the carriage looking at me.
After I approached, Talis whispered to me, "Donnie, you need to be smarter and wink, you know?"
I hope she said winking and quick-witted, and she didn't mean crawling on the bed.
Seeing me nodding, Talis pointed to the car door and said, "Go up, the lord is waiting for you."
I:"……"
The compartment is so small, wouldn't I have to sit opposite the lord with big eyes and small eyes after I got in?I'm going, no matter how I think, I feel uncomfortable.If I was facing a beautiful woman, even if it was as cold as Talis, I would be more than willing, but now I have to face a rough old man who is nearly thirty years old...
I bite the bullet and got in the car, and seeing the lord sitting in the front seat, I immediately sat in the seat opposite to him.
Fortunately, the two of us didn't have to look awkwardly at each other.He was looking down at the newspaper in his hand at this time, and only looked up at me when I got into the car, and then ignored me again.
The carriage started to move slowly and smoothly, which was much better than the rental carriage I took yesterday.Not to mention the big difference between the interior and exterior decoration, the cushions we sit on—made of animal skins—are gorgeous and luxurious enough.
Seeing that he turned the newspaper page after page, but there was no sign of the carriage arriving at the destination, I couldn't help thinking to myself: It's best that we can reach the palace before he reads the newspaper!
But often things don't go as planned.No matter how slow a person reads a few pages of newspapers, it will take less than 10 minutes.The lord put away the newspaper, put it aside casually, and then set his eyes on me.
When he put away the newspaper, I immediately lowered my head slightly, and my eyes dropped to the ground.After feeling his gaze, I pretended not to notice it and continued to look at the carpet under my feet.
He looked at me for a long time, as if he wanted to take a closer look at me when he saw me for the first time, oh no, it should be said to take a good look at me.It's bad manners to stare at someone for so long for no reason, and for a man of his stature, he's supposed to be staring at me.
"Donnie," he said suddenly.
I had to raise my head to face him and said, "Yes."
"This is your first name, what about your last name?" He suddenly asked such a question.
I couldn't answer for a while, and my mind kept thinking quickly.
Lied at the time that Donnie was just a whim.In this era, the status of a woman is not as high as that of a man, so a woman's surname is not important. After she gets married, she takes her husband's surname, so I never thought about having a surname.
My surname is Tang, so I can't tell him my name is Donnie Tang, can I?What a mouthful!
"What? Can't you tell me?" He asked.
Damn, even if I don't want to say it, I have to say it!Otherwise, what if he immediately treats me as a spy?
"My surname is Tang," I decided to tell the truth. "Tony is actually my first and last name. Eastern names are different from Western names..." I glanced at him and lowered my eyelashes again.
"I see."
After he got the answer, the interior of the car became quiet again, but his eyes still stayed on me.
Inexplicably, I was a little irritable.In the past, who dared to look at me so openly for so long, I would definitely take him as a deliberate provocation.Well, either I go up and beat him up, or I bring my friends up and beat him up together!
"You're nervous with me?"
He was so idle that he suddenly asked a question that was not nutritious.
My heart said: Nervous ghost!I just want to poke your eyes out!
Well, being stared at by a guy like that reminds me of that gay guy who used to chase me.
Whether it is the memories of the past or the current situation, it makes me feel uncomfortable.But I can't have it!
I hesitated, and finally chose to nod.I was afraid that if I said I was not nervous, he would make some demands.
"Am I scary?" he asked with a low smile.
No matter how you look at this kind of conversation, it is a bit abnormal!Why does the lord want to do chores with a maid?To actually ask "I'm scary?" What the hell, did he think he was a suave and domineering president?
"No," I had to glance at him quickly, then lowered my head and continued, "I didn't wash the rice well last time, so I'm afraid of making you unhappy again..."
"Then do it well." He tilted his body to one side, resting one elbow on the window frame, seemingly leisurely, "I usually only give others a chance."
Who is so rare!
I resisted the urge to roll my eyes at him, and pretended to be grateful: "Thank you sir for giving me this opportunity."
At this time, the carriage stopped, and the guard driving the carriage knocked on the wall panel behind me, and said in a low voice: "My lord, the palace is here."
finally reached!I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and if I continue to get along with him like this, I'm afraid that I won't be able to hold back my violent temper, and I'll rush over to pinch his neck or punch him in the face!
The lord didn't say a word, just opened the car door and jumped out.I got out of the car right after him, and followed behind him step by step.
Well, I should just tell Talis that I can't do this job, or I won't have to follow this bastard like a follower like I am now.
Compared with the lord's mansion, the palace here looks a bit shabby.Because this is actually a relatively large single-storey house.The courtyard is very small, with lawns on both sides of the path in the courtyard, and this place is halfway up the mountain. If I didn't know that this place is a palace, I would doubt that this is the residence of some richer farmer.
Although it looks ordinary from the outside, I only know what it means to be a small sparrow with complete internal organs when I enter the inside.Moreover, the sofa, coffee table, carpet, fireplace and various decorative items in the living room all reveal the taste and wealth of the owner.
I couldn't help fantasizing about it: in winter, sitting on a rocking chair by the fireplace, holding a cup of fragrant milk tea in hand, with a favorite book on my lap, sometimes drinking tea and reading a book, and sometimes looking at the fire in the fireplace , sometimes looking at the snow falling outside the window...
Well, I suddenly feel so romantic.When I go back, I will go to Europe to buy a house like this, and when I get old, I will move there with the woman I love.
"Donnie!"
When I heard the cry, I immediately came back to my senses. "yes."
"Come with me." The lord glanced at me and continued walking.
I followed him immediately, across the living room and into the hallway.
The lord opened a door and turned to me and said, "I live in this room, and you live in the next room." He pointed to the inner room and said, "Come and tidy up my room first, and then clean up the living room." And tidy up the hallway."
"Yes." I nodded immediately.
The lord didn't bring any luggage, obviously everything in the palace.After he gave his orders, he turned and walked to the living room.
After tidying up his room and returning to the living room, I saw him sitting on the sofa reading a book.I didn't dare to disturb him, and started to pack it up lightly.
There wasn't much dust in here, and it was obviously cleaned on a weekday basis, which allowed me to get the job done quickly.After I was done, I didn't know what to do next, so I stood quietly behind him, seemingly waiting for his call, but actually I wanted him to forget my existence.
"Donnie," obviously, he still remembers me, probably because there is no one else he can handle besides me.He turned his head and glanced at me, "Make me a cup of tea, then prepare lunch."
"Okay." After I finished answering, I walked to the kitchen.
What the hell, I haven't made tea and I haven't cooked a decent meal, what should I do?
Except for the kitchen servants who have to finish breakfast before they can go on vacation, the rest of the maids are already on vacation.
And all the maids above do not include me.
According to Talis's instructions, I went to the third floor to find her after I got up and washed.
