Comprehensive Victoria's Secret

For the first time, Elizabeth knew that Estelle could speak so well.

"Raul, I hope you will immediately stop communicating with Ms. Kristin Daye." Estelle faced Raul who came back from the masquerade ball very coldly.

A young man in love cannot reason: "Why? Auntie?"

"Because it is impossible for you to get married." Estelle said indifferently: "Your future wife should be a girl from an aristocratic family of the same class, or even an heiress at best. Philip is still unwilling to get married so far. His The heir is you so far, and if you marry Miss Christine Daye as your wife, then the most obvious problem is that although the marriage of nobles and commoners is a legal marriage, the offspring still have no inheritance rights, although many countries now Only the royal family is still insisting on this matter, but the Shani family has not given up on this insistence."

Elizabeth deeply mourned for Raul. Estelle was mostly a little girl when she was in England. Although she was a bit hypocritical, such long-winded teachings were almost all completed by Dungal. Estelle Er never interrupted, but Elizabeth knelt down to this woman this time, how could she speak so well...

Raul couldn't stand it: "Auntie...Christine and I are true love..." Estelle raised a hand to shut him up: "I believe this, the whole of France may believe this matter, but can the whole of France accept this matter?"

"Aunt... I used to think the same way, I used my reason to suppress the tenderness in my heart, I didn't dare to imagine that I would be with the singing girl for the rest of my life; I made an oath that I would only love the woman who became my wife in this life. But now, my soul has been swallowed by this tenderness. Only those who have truly loved can experience this wonderful feeling of heartache and sweetness." Elizabeth could hardly help rolling her eyes, isn't this the standard of the heroine of the Qiong Yao drama? lines?

"I'm sorry I can't understand." Estelle was very indifferent: "As the mother of a 17-year-old girl, I still can't understand. I only know the family obligations that I have to bear. In fact, if you insist on insisting on the relationship between you Love, then either marry her as a concubine, or let her be your mistress. There is no other choice, although I personally hate mistresses."

In fact, for countries influenced by Catholicism, monogamy is highly respected, and being a mistress is generally regarded as indecent behavior by the society, and Dungall's chivalry made him exceptional before and after marriage. He restrained himself, at least Elizabeth knew that basically his whereabouts were well documented every night, and it was impossible to go to some gold-selling cave to make trouble.

When Raul was about to speak, Elizabeth pushed him down first: "I know what you are going to say—" She adapted Grandma Qiong Yao's classic lines: "Auntie, you know the place Christine holds in my heart , is so lofty, so noble! No one in the whole world has such a status as Christine in my heart! I respect her, pity her, love her, admire her, miss her, and make myself almost torn apart and collapsed , How can there be any disrespect in this kind of relationship? I just can't help my actions! For so many years, I have struggled to suppress my feelings for her. This kind of torture has left me riddled with holes and cuts and bruises! I want to run away, but this feeling doesn’t allow me to run away! I want to go, it doesn’t allow me to go!” Elizabeth recited a long passage in one breath, looked at Raul who was stunned and Estelle who said “You are sick”, and then Said: "Involuntary emotion is a disease that can be cured."

After finishing speaking, she bowed, performed a standard lady's salute, and ran upstairs.

As for how Estelle talked with Raul, Elizabeth didn't know. She had exhausted a lot of energy fighting the assassin, and she decisively lay down in the bathtub after returning to her room.

The hot water relieved the muscle soreness very well, and washed off the sweat that she had sweated during the exercise. Elizabeth changed into her pajamas and went to bed. Before going to bed, she suddenly remembered and told her maid: "Annie, help me Get your stuff ready to go back to the UK, I think we're going back soon."

From Elizabeth's point of view, there is no need for them to stay in France any longer, the matter of the musical is over, and things in London are still waiting for them to do, and from Elizabeth's point of view, it is best for her and Estelle to Attend Ron's wedding.

Packing away the custom-made things after coming to France, Elizabeth looked at the long list-feeling that this is not much different from moving once-it can be exhausting.

"What?" Elizabeth looked at Estelle in surprise - she couldn't help but be surprised: "Mom, are you not going back?"

"Well." Estelle nodded: "I have no intention of going back for the time being. I want to persuade Raul to come over. A viscount, the future earl, cannot have a showgirl as his fiancée. I have no ill feeling towards Miss Day, it's just that she Can't be Raul's wife."

Elizabeth couldn't help sympathizing with her mother: "Then what about me? Estelle? Should I also stay in France?"

"No, you go back." Estelle said, "Liz, you'd better marry yourself during the social season."

After that, Elizabeth was sent to Calais, took her maid and luggage, and boarded the ship back to England.

This strait is called the English Channel, and the French call it the Strait of La Manches.It is a strait that separates the United Kingdom from France on the European continent and connects the Atlantic Ocean with the North Sea.The strait is 560 kilometers long and 240 kilometers wide. The narrowest part, also known as the Strait of Dover, is only 34 kilometers wide.Dover in England is across the Channel from Calais in France.

This is a strait that can be swam across, so Elizabeth didn't stay on board for long. She just drank a glass of wine, blew the sea breeze, watched the scenery on the deck, and arrived at the port of Dover.

Elizabeth was surprised that Dungal did not come to pick her up, but fortunately she didn't expect her father who was always busy to pick her up, so she still took the train with the maid and headed for Wales.

The train in the era of the first industrial revolution was horribly slow. Elizabeth took a book and read it in the box. However, the ideal was full and the reality was skinny. The bad weather during the British Industrial Revolution made her completely unable to get enough of her reading. bright.

Her heart was blocked, and she felt that she couldn’t love anymore, so Elizabeth recalled Eric’s design, and then she checked the Hidden Blade in her hand and the blades of her boots, and after she was sure they were correct, she began to break them on the table boringly. finger.

Elizabeth was bored, bored, bored... so bored that she dug out her locket and looked at her portrait on it—portrait is a troublesome job.

Well, indeed, photography was invented in the Victorian era, but Elizabeth still drew a portrait under Estelle's suggestion. The girl in the portrait is gentle and elegant, wearing a beautiful lace dress, a very standard classical beauty .

Elizabeth said that this woman only [-]% resembles her.

It was very popular among ladies in the nineteenth century to curl their hair and leave two slightly curly long hair on the forehead or on both sides of the cheeks. There is no such problem for the naturally curly Elizabeth... However... This is very bad for fighting and combing hair.

As for taking pictures, Elizabeth didn't want to mention this thing again after a certain whim experience. The reason is very simple-the photography technology is underdeveloped, so people have to maintain a posture for a long time without moving at all, otherwise the pictures that are washed out will be blurry. will freeze.

After Elizabeth posed in an attempt to take a more handsome picture of herself, and almost suffered lumbar muscle strain at a young age, Elizabeth realized the advanced nature of oil painting.

There are three identical portraits of her—it is difficult to draw one, but it is relatively easy to reproduce. There is one hanging in Morgan Manor.One of the remaining two was in the locket in her hand, and the other was received by Dungall.

Elizabeth turned the locket back and forth in her hands, and finally hung the locket around her neck, her hands constantly rubbing against the tablecloth on the table.

Anne had given up on persuading her, and she sat opposite Elizabeth to help her sort out her recent travel plans: "Miss, when we return to England this time, we need to visit His Excellency the Duke first, because it is not the social season, so we can go back directly from London to the manor"

"Please Anne, please spare me." Anne Parker is Elizabeth's personal maid, and she basically does a job similar to that of a female secretary. Elizabeth originally wanted to go to France this time without a maid, which would be more relaxed, but Estelle insisted on asking Elizabeth to take her with her, but in the end she was nagged miserably.

"I have made the following decision based on social arrangements. After we arrive in London, Miss can rest for a day, and then..."

Elizabeth was very irritable when she heard so many names of places and people, she just lay down on the seat of the box with no manners: "I'll sleep for a while, Anne, and you can call me when I get there."

After arriving in London, Elizabeth managed to escape Anne's nagging for a short time. The old butler who came to pick her up, Joseph Dylan, had been working in the family for a long time, took her own initiative to take her into the carriage, and even drove for her himself.

"Old Joseph, aren't we going back to the manor?"

Joseph's voice sounded strange: "Yes, miss, we are going to the house in London first."

Elizabeth frowned, but she still trusted Joseph very much. She could only judge why Joseph was so flustered.

Elizabeth entered the hall, but still did not see Dungal.She decisively sent Annie to the room to help her arrange some matters, then turned to Joseph and asked, "Where is my father?"

Elizabeth swears that even if the old man in front of her has a good relationship with her, if he has evil intentions, Elizabeth will immediately cut his throat.

Joseph said with a pale face: "That's why I brought you here, Miss—Master, he's missing!"

The author has something to say: Hahahahahaha, the girl finally has to face these problems~
