Chapter 108 The Blind Date Tea Party
In the afternoon, my wife came back from a party and heard from the housekeeper that Bai Tongtong was very happy to be back. After going back to the bedroom to change clothes, she went to the living room. Bai Tongtong was sitting in front of the writing desk. The principal dictated a letter, and Bai Tongtong helped him write it down.

Seeing his wife walking in, Bai Tongtong immediately put down his pen, got up and went to hug and kiss her.

"Oh, Tongtong, my dear, I'm so happy that you're back. Have you seen so many gifts in your room? Don't be too many, there will only be more in the future."

"Oh, ma'am, that's a lot more than expected."

"Don't be afraid, don't worry, you change the wrapping paper and give it to others. Everyone does this. Many gifts are left in your hands and you don't need them. It's better to give them away, or sell second-hand second-hand goods, so that people who need them can buy them." It’s not a waste to go.”

"Well, that's a good suggestion, thank you Ma'am, I will consider it." Bai Tongtong immediately thought of Seiya, and he could ask her to sell second-hand.

"Ah, by the way, you came back just in time. I just received an invitation specially for you today. I thought you might not be able to make it." Madam showed the things in her hand and handed them to Bai Tongtong.

"What invitation? Who gave it? I won't go to places where the words are not speculative." Bai Tongtong's hairs stood on end when he heard the social networking, and he accepted it with some hesitation.

"An invitation to afternoon tea from Mrs. Derry."

"Mrs. Derry's afternoon tea?" Headmaster Hart raised his eyebrows and hummed twice, as if laughing.

Bai Tongtong took his wife's arm and sat down with her in front of the sofa, and poured tea for her, "Mrs. Deli's afternoon tea? It sounds like a well-known regular event? Is it held regularly?"

Madam covered her mouth and smiled lightly.

"Just tell her what the afternoon tea is, don't be so mysterious, Tongtong is not a young girl who can be easily coaxed by a few words." Principal Hart seemed to be in a low mood and didn't want to get involved with women. topic, but ears are pricked up.

"Ahem, then this afternoon tea, if I want to go, do I have to make poor preparations?"

"Don't listen to your headmaster. There's nothing bad about it. It's just a man and a woman who spent a pleasant afternoon together. They left before dinner and didn't even eat evening tea."

"Oh, a group blind date for unmarried men and women." Bai Tongtong immediately responded, and then added a compliment, "Mrs. Deli is really helpful and enthusiastic, and I believe the success rate is also very high."

"Oh, my dear, Mrs. Deli has a wide network of contacts. Indeed, as you said, she has the highest success rate." Mrs. Hart jokingly said while holding a teacup.

Bai Tongtong glanced at the date on the invitation, and it was the day after tomorrow, "Afternoon the day after tomorrow, I still have experiments to finish in a hurry. After staying in Tamir for so long, the homework assigned by Master Jules has not been finished."

"Don't be nervous, I'll write to Jules myself and ask him to give you two days' grace." The lady put down the teacup, patted Bai Tongtong's hand, got up happily and went back to the bedroom.

Bai Tongtong suddenly felt sweating all over her body. She grabbed the invitation card as a fan and fanned it vigorously, and turned her eyes helplessly to Principal Hart, "Can you find something to keep me from going that day? I am really excited for group social activities in Tamir." enough."

Principal Hart shrugged helplessly, "I think you should hurry up and go to the street to buy a new dress."

"...Let's continue to finish that letter." Bai Tongtong threw the invitation on the coffee table and did not look at it.

The next morning, Bai Tongtong and Ah Huang went shopping in the high-end boutique street, arguing endlessly about Bai Tongtong's aesthetic vision while shopping.

【Mrs. Deli is also a famous lady in the social circle. For her blind date, you have to buy a decent dress. The gold and silver thread embroidery is so beautiful, you don't even look at it. 】

[Buying gorgeous dresses just for a blind date is not my style. 】

[She is a noble lady, and the host has formally issued an invitation to invite you. Since you have decided to go, of course you must dress up and get to know more people. Others must also want to know you very much. 】

[If you want to put it this way, wouldn't it be more difficult for me to show my identity if I just wore the robe? 】The top-quality clothes must be matched with corsets, which draw the upper body into a suffocating stiff line. If you want to avoid guilt, you can only lower your requirements and buy ordinary styles, but the quality and workmanship of such clothes are not good, and tomorrow It's even a blind date, and it's too late to find a tailor to do it now.

In order to relax herself, Bai Tongtong does not want to buy those top-level clothes that are extremely beautiful but also extremely cumbersome. Ahuang thinks that it has approved the lowering of the standard, but it must not be lowered to the level of the general public. It said that if Bai Tongtong dared to buy it, it would Dare to tear it apart, the two of them quarreled all the way over this.

[Except for a robe, there is no clothes that can support the scene, are you ashamed. 】

[It's not just a blind date, why should I dress like I'm attending a palace ball. 】

[The costumes for the palace ball are custom-made one or two months in advance, and you can't buy them on the street. If you really go to the ball, I don't believe that you will seriously make clothes. 】

【To be honest, I don’t even know how to dance the court dance. If someone really sent me an invitation, I would run away as if I didn’t see it. I can’t care about etiquette anymore. 】Bai Tongtong looked at the people and cars on the street and smiled, as if she was really happy.

【You are hopeless, let go of the existing social circle and not expand it. 】

[Wrong, in the magic world, people like me are normal, and people who like to socialize are considered abnormal. 】

[I haven't become an official magician yet, but I have the thinking of a magician. 】

[Hey, this kind of thinking is already there, okay, it's a typical characteristic of science students. 】

[Okay, stop bragging, hurry up to buy clothes, and go on a blind date tomorrow. 】

【Do you insist on announcing that I am going on a blind date with drums and gongs? 】

[If I could really beat the gongs and drums, I would do so. 】

[Don’t be ridiculous, people here generally get married early, and the men get married and have children in their early 20s. Those who can match my age either have wives or are dead wives, and their children are all in school.If I really find such a widower, it doesn’t matter if the man has no sons. If I already have an eldest son and I give birth to a son later, then I can see the bloody drama of me murdering my stepson for the sake of my son’s inheritance. 】

[You don't worry about becoming a public nuisance of an older leftover woman at all. 】

[Tch, there is nothing to worry about. One day my old lady will get rich, who cares about those greasy old men, some of them are young grass with red lips and white teeth, based on the marriage age of the locals, the tender grass is generally of a good standard, innocent and cute with good skin. 】

[You social nuisance!I do not know you! 】Ah Huang left Bai Tongtong three steps away with a disgusted face.

[What are you pretending to be pure and innocent? Don't think that I don't know that you don't want to snooze when you see the cute little female cat.By the way, have you matured?Shall I give you a physical examination someday? ] Bai Tongtong stared at Ah Huang with a lewd smile.

Ah Huang flicked his tail disdainfully, and glanced at the pedestrians passing by, 【Are you sure you want to show this expression on the street? 】

Bai Tongtong acted nonchalantly, but reacted sharply and glared at a few innocent passers-by, rubbed his face and continued walking to the next clothing store.

She wandered the streets for a day, and visited all the better clothing stores on the commercial street, accompanied by Ah Huang's various opinions, but she didn't see the clothes she liked. Think about how she was before going to Tamir. The new dress bought in Menise City, it was easier for her to find a suitable one at that time.

But fortunately, Bai Tongtong and Ah Huang finally reached an agreement, recognizing that ordinary people also have social needs to attend important occasions, and for women who are not able to wear corsets, there must be businesses that can meet their needs Well, the housewives who do the housework by themselves every day have to take a break after walking three steps with a bucket of water in those tight ribs. Even if they want to wear them, they must have the objective conditions.

Based on this guiding ideology for shopping, Bai Tongtong immediately left the high-end commercial street where there are many boutiques, and went to the neighborhood where middle-class families of all sizes gathered.

Ah Huang personally measured the details of the various places in the capital, and it was clear to Wangdu that it brought Bai Tongtong to the well-known Voss neighborhood. It is very well received, but any capable family will try their best to send their children there.

Loudun Street behind the school is one of the commercial streets in the neighborhood, providing daily necessities for nearby residents. Bai Tongtong has never been there, and she is very interested in shopping slowly from store to store.

The Home for the Elders has had a long holiday for the New Year since years ago. Farrell, who went abroad for a tropical seaside vacation during the holiday, just came back today. He took a bus from the Magician's Guild and got off outside the block, and walked in slowly to relax this day. Physical fatigue caused by the teleportation of the teleportation array.

It is also a pleasure to do so without wanting to reveal the secret that he has a high-level magic pet.

He turned into Loudoun Street at the first intersection, and Harding followed him with the Wind Hidden Technique, chatting with each other about interesting topics related to vacation.

Suddenly, Harding bit Farrell's coat cuff, preventing him from going any further.

[Hurry up and hide. 】

【What's wrong? ] Farrell stopped calmly, pretending to be looking inside through the shop window.

[The cat and the woman are in the clothing store in front. 】 Harding smelled a familiar smell.

【what? ] Farrell immediately turned around and walked back, then dodged into an alley, added the Wind Hidden Technique to himself, and came out again.

One person and one wolf swaggered to the outside of the shop where Bai Tongtong was, and looked in through the window, just in time to see Bai Tongtong had just changed into a new one, standing in front of the mirror and circling in circles.The color matching of the skirt is very lively, and the shoulder cuffs and skirt are embellished with just the right delicate embroidery. It is very suitable for attending daytime social activities, but it is easy to see that there is no tights inside the skirt, but because of the sewing technology, the upper body appears to be full. Founder lines in line with high-end aesthetics.

[I came here to buy clothes. ] Farrell rubbed his chin and muttered to himself.

【Need me to investigate?I ran so far just to buy this skirt that doesn't need to be worn with tights, and it's this style. Maybe there is some social occasion that I have to attend recently. 】

[But her surveillance protection has been revoked. 】

[This is not really surveillance and protection, at most it is to inquire about short gossips and news from parents. 】

[It's your favorite anyway, right? 】 Farrell habitually reached out and scratched the top of Harding's head.

[It is against my nature not to inquire about interesting things. 】Harding left behind a series of silent chuckles, turned into a gust of breeze and walked away.

Farrell felt that it was against the spirit of a gentleman to stand outside the store and peek at the lady trying on new clothes with the wind concealment technique. After Harding left, he also left quickly, and took a shortcut to leave Loudoun Street before withdrawing the magic. Walk home casually.

After trying several sets of clothes, Bai Tongtong finally bought what she wanted, and ate something in a small restaurant nearby. When it was dark, she went back to the principal's house. At that time, Harding had already obtained the information and went back to tell Farley. you.

Mrs. Deli's afternoon tea is also one of the social occasions that Farrell never attends. There are many reasons. First of all, the lady's enthusiasm for matching unmarried men and women has reached the point of being unbearable. She vowed not to give up until the matchmaking was successful.

Farrell couldn't help feeling sympathetic to Bai Tongtong, knowing that she was not in the country and asking Mrs. Torhart to bring the invitation back, this was a sign of being favored, and I wish her good luck.

The next day, the headmaster's family specially moved the lunch time forward to give Bai Tongtong enough time to dress up, and his wife insisted that as a lady, she must go out in a carriage and not come out of the ground like a surprise attack, even if Bai Tongtong was wearing Robes can't do that either, a lady has to be a lady.

Principal Hart pretended to be deaf and dumb to his wife's arrangements, and he absolutely agreed with his wife when asked his opinion. Bai Tongtong had no reason to run away halfway.

After a short afternoon nap, Bai Tongtong changed into the new dress she bought yesterday, and sat in front of the vanity mirror to accept the elaborate makeup of her wife and her personal maid.

The coachman prepared the carriage, and the carriage was even scented with incense. He safely delivered Bai Tongtong to Earl Deli's mansion. The carriages of the guests arriving at the front door had already formed a long queue. Outside the iron gate, there were servants like traffic police That guides the carriages in and out in an orderly manner.This is a famous scene in Wangdu.

When it was Bai Tongtong's turn that the carriage stopped in front of the mansion, the manservant opened the door, Ah Huang jumped out first, the well-trained servants were not surprised at all, the manservant still stretched out his hand with a smile on his face, and pulled Bai Tongtong out of the carriage.

Mrs. Deli was waiting for her guests in the hall. The male guests came alone, while the female guests were accompanied by older female companions, some were mother and daughter, but Bai Tongtong was alone.

Both men and women are well-dressed, those colorful embroidered long skirts are extremely gorgeous, and the waist of a young teenage girl is really like the thinnest part of an hourglass under the shackles of tights and the magnification of panniers. In the middle part, Bai Tongtong felt that her two hands could completely grab a girl's waist.

The male servants and maidservants waited for the guests to take off their coats. Bai Tongtong was wearing a full set of silver fox fur. The hat, scarf, knee-length coat, and muff were all made of the best materials. Be more cautious when undressing.

Under the overcoat is the robe, and with the robe as a foil, no one pays attention to what skirt she is wearing underneath. The wide style of the robe well covers Bai Tongtong's waist without tights. They walked up to Mrs. Derry and greeted her with hugs and kisses.

It was the first time for Bai Tongtong to participate in the activities of the aristocratic social circle in the royal capital. She is a new face here, but it is not difficult to recognize her. The khaki robe and shadowless cat are the best symbols.

Ah Huang followed Bai Tongtong's feet in an orderly manner. With its current size, only a blind man could ignore it.

"Oh, dear Miss Bai, I'm so glad that you returned to the capital in time. Please allow me to call you Tongtong. I think we will get along well." Expensive jewels and plump Mrs. Deli spoke quickly, and a servant invited her into the living room, and behind her came the voice of Mrs. Deli greeting the next guest.

The sofa and the soft chairs in the living room form a circle together. Men and women each occupy a semicircle. There are more female guests, and the semicircle is slightly larger. In addition, some people do not sit, but stand in front of the window where they can see the scenery. to chat with.

As soon as Bai Tongtong entered the living room, she got the attention of everyone in the room. She nodded to everyone implicitly, and was about to find herself a seat next to the female guests, when the male guests moved towards her one after another.

And the majestic Ah Huang made the weak female guests exclaim a few times.

"Miss Bai, my Viscount Sass, I am very glad to have the honor to meet you today." The first man who spoke took Bai Tongtong's hand and kissed it on his lips before Bai Tongtong could express anything. Ah Huang looked at her coldly. After a while, he turned around and acted cute to a little girl.

The hair of the male guests was all combed with pomade, and some had longer hair tied into a small braid at the back of their heads. They all looked like first-class gentlemen, but Bai Tongtong only glanced at them. I understood what Mrs. Deli meant.

There were only a dozen or so male guests, and there were six of them who matched her age, but none of them caught the eye, not to mention tall or short, but they all had a body shape with a belly higher than their chest, and they were all struggling like a comparison. Stomach out, this Sass looks like a six-month pregnant woman.

Bai Tongtong greeted him politely with a stiff smile, took a little effort to take his hand from Sass, but was held by others and continued to listen to self-introduction.

Men with out-of-shape figures can't attract Bai Tongtong's interest at all, and they don't need to consider their identities, family backgrounds and occupations. What surprised Bai Tongtong is that this Viscount Sass is actually a backbench member of the House of Elders. During the General Assembly, members of parliament who sit in the back seats and only have the right to make opinions but not the right to make decisions are better than simply observing, and they can proudly claim that they have suffrage rights outside.

There are so many viscounts and barons in the country, and there are quite strict thresholds for becoming a backbench member. At least one must have a large enough territory, have a stable and sufficient income, and have the capital to compete for the status of a backbench member.This is indeed enough capital to be proud of others.

The few men Mrs. Deli found were all high-quality candidates who could have a place in Wangdu, but Bai Tongtong didn't like any of them.
