[Cinderella] Prince go away

The war between the twins, An Ti and Tana, continued until the arrival of Mrs. Jones, An Ti's long-awaited art tutor. ,

In fact, Rebecca, Cinderella, and even Marquis Gutenberg can understand the quarrel between the twins.

An Ti and Tana are twins, and they have always enjoyed the same treatment since birth.

However, this time, An Ti and Tana obviously put forward their own requirements for the course at the same time—although the Marquis of Gutenberg did agree to them, but the final result was that An Ti failed to welcome her at the same time as her sister. tutor.

It was the jealousy and dissatisfaction that filled her heart that led An Ti to take the lead in attacking her sister.

And Tana, who felt that she was completely innocent, after realizing her sister's mood, also used the excuse that she couldn't be wronged for nothing, and showed it off in front of An Ti more and more proudly.

So the battle intensified, except for the dining table that was the initial battlefield, and in the next few days—especially after Tana had already taken music lessons—it spread to the entire mansion.

It wasn't until the arrival of Mrs. Jones that the people who seemed a little tired because of the twins' quarrel for days were rescued.

This is undoubtedly a good thing for Rebecca. At least the twins will not continue to quarrel because of the "unequal" treatment. Calm was restored.

It's just that when Rebecca thought she could breathe a sigh of relief, she didn't expect a new round of war to break out again.

Antioch satirized Tana's music was harsher than the cries of the poultry in the manor.

Tana, on the other hand, laughed at her sister's drawing as nothing more than a mass of lines that couldn't be seen clearly.

This kind of conversation will start if you don't pay attention. As long as the two sisters bump into each other, no matter what topic they are discussing, they will eventually develop in this direction. It can be said that it is hard to guard against.

Rebecca would block it at first, but later on she didn't care about it at all.

Because even if this kind of dialogue will appear from time to time, it may be forgotten after a while; just like a thunderstorm in summer, it comes and goes quickly. One moment they are still mocking each other, and the next second they can Arm in arm and continue discussing clothing or other topics.

Rebecca thinks this is not bad - at least it can be called friendly compared to a while ago, but if the two sisters can be more friendly to Cinderella, it will be more perfect.

It has been nearly two months since the three girls started their lessons.

Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Jones have conducted seven courses respectively. Although the three girls are still novices, they have made their own progress due to the trend of interest or their own efforts.

only……

Rebecca also took the time to check the progress of the three of them separately. After all, this also belonged to the homework left by the two ladies, but the result made her have to sigh.

Although An Ti and Tana proposed to study these two courses on their own initiative, it seems that they completely regard music and art as hobbies—or an activity to pass the time, and feel that it doesn't matter where they come from. The arrival of governesses only makes them appear more like noble ladies.

As for Cinderella, although Rebecca knew early on that the child agreed because of her father's expectations, she is now the one who works the hardest among the three.

Even though this was unintentional at the beginning, and what she had to learn alone was the sum of the twins, she was indeed the one who improved the most.

Compared with Antina's sketches that were so distorted that it was almost impossible to see the prototype, her paintings already looked quite decent; and compared with Tana's out-of-tune piano, although her violin still played very slowly, it was It can also be connected into a complete song.

Rebecca has also inquired about the three children from Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Jones. Now it seems...

She thought she should have been able to understand the reasons for the rather similar and complicated expressions of the two ladies.

(Is it really a question of talent?)

Rebecca thought distressedly.

But recalling the appearance of the three children after they started studying—even before studying, Rebecca, who was drinking tea in the living room at this time, suddenly felt that she understood something.

The twins, An Ti and Tana, had lost their father early on. Although they had the inheritance left by their deceased husband and their own doting, they could live comfortably, but they still couldn't compare to the life of the Marquis's family.

At least the matter of hiring a tutor was still impossible for them at that time.

But maybe with such a life, An Ti and Tana also have their own desires.

They want to learn courses that only rich ladies can take, wear gorgeous clothes to squeeze into social occasions, and even marry an excellent husband in the end.

After they came to the Marquis's house, they had the capital to realize it little by little.

It's just that for An Ti and Tana, the courses they had most longed for were no longer so important after they came to the Marquis's house and had enough conditions.Now these courses are no longer necessary for them, and they care more about when they can enter the social circle.

And Cinderella...

She will study these courses purely because she knows that it is the wish of the Marquis of Gutenberg, but since she has learned it, she will definitely go all out and take it seriously with her character.

"Is that why this is happening now?"

Rebecca sighed and put down her teacup, and then she saw Mrs. Jones, who taught Antio and Cinderella, appear in front of her.

"Marquise," the tutor hesitated for a while after seeing Rebecca found herself, and finally said as if she had made up her mind, "I want to talk to you about something."

——I don’t know how many times this is.

Cinderella sighed.

——Is this the first time she made a mistake in class?

Originally, Cinderella thought it was a mistake caused by lack of sleep due to her dreams every night, but the cracks in the charcoal pencil, the unevenness of the sketch paper (Mrs. Jones later told herself that it was caused by being soaked in water) and Other problems, large and small, that pop up from time to time...

Is it really all because of her lack of sleep?

In addition to the mistakes in the art class, there are also occasional accidents in the music class, such as broken strings from time to time and occasional bows and music scores that cannot be found.

Even Cinderella, who doesn't like to doubt others, has to start wondering if someone is targeting her.

But who could it be?

Who in this family would do that to themselves?

Cinderella didn't dare to think about it, and she didn't even want to face such an answer.

So, this should just be her illusion, right?

Anti, who was in the painting class together, disappeared after Mrs. Jones left, and Cinderella didn't pay much attention to this—both Anti and Tana—she just carefully packed her painting utensils, no matter whether they were Someone is really playing a prank behind his back, as long as he pays more attention, there should be no problem.

"Anti, how's the situation today?"

Cinderella, who finished packing the painting utensils, left the studio and was about to return to the room when she heard Tana's excited voice not far away.

(Probably asking about today's class.)

Cinderella smiled, although the twins would openly satirize each other's lessons—this has been the case for the past two months, and now even Mrs. They care about each other.

But Cinderella suddenly hesitated.

Knowing etiquette, she will naturally not avoid her stepsisters when she sees them. Even though Cinderella knows that they don't like her, this is a conversation between their twins after all, and she shouldn't interrupt.

Otherwise, the twins who already hated her already would probably hate themselves even more.

Cinderella thought that this time she should act as if she hadn't seen or heard anything, and when they left quietly before they found her, she heard An Ti's answer.

"Excellent!"

An Ti's voice was filled with obvious excitement and joy, and she couldn't hold back her emotions and said loudly, "Didn't you see that guy Cinderella's expression when he found that his drawing paper was all soaked in water, hahahahaha , I really laughed to death!"

"That Mrs. Jones actually asked me to lend her the paper, how could I agree! Fortunately, she was sensible and said that the paper can still be used, but even if she can't use it, I won't borrow it..."

"How could her weak character resist? I couldn't find the music score in music class, so I can only ask Mrs. Smith to borrow it?"

"I'm a bit envious of you, even if you break her violin, she won't rub against you, but it's not the first time she asked me to borrow something in art class, like the charcoal pencils before..."

The conversation between An Ti and Tana was still going on, but Cinderella, who inadvertently listened to all of this, only felt her hands and feet getting cold.

In any case, she never thought that the people who kept destroying her equipment would be her stepsisters who attended classes with her, and what would they say when they saw problems with their equipment?

——Who told you not to take good care of it?

Cinderella looked over there and was still talking, and even started to discuss how to tease An Ti and Tana next time, and finally turned back to her bedroom without saying a word.

What should she do?

Tell father?

Then let father drive them away with Mrs. Rebecca?

But Mrs. Rebecca was the wife her father married after a serious discussion with her. Not to mention how her father viewed Mrs. Rebecca, she liked her very much.Even though An Ti and Tana did these things, she still loves this lady.

Then tell Mrs. Rebecca?

Cinderella shook her head, she didn't want the other party to worry.

These days, Cinderella can see that the other party has always wanted the twins to get along well with her. If she knows that the twins have done this to her, she will be very angry.Although the twins did something wrong, she also felt that they should be taught a lesson, but that was not the best solution.

Although after telling Mrs. Rebecca, she will definitely teach the twins severely, and they will probably apologize to themselves like that morning, but what about after that?

Is it more watertight bullying?

Or just pretend she doesn't exist?

In fact, even after Cinderella knew that those things were the actions of An Ti and Tana, she didn't really hate them. She could see that their nature was not bad. They can get along well.

Father and Mrs. Rebecca could be at ease only if they got along well.

But the question is... is she supposed to?

Should this be done so that the twins can accept themselves?

While Cinderella was lying on the bed thinking about this issue, in the living room on the other side, after listening to Mrs. Jones' words, Rebecca nodded lightly, showing no joy or anger from her expression.

"I understand."

Rebecca said that there was a natural majesty in every gesture, just like ordinary noble ladies—this was completely different from what Mrs. Jones had heard before.

"I ask you to worry about it later, Mrs. Jones."

"I see, Mrs. Rebecca."
