She Is Not a Witch
Chapter 77: Rainy Night Tea Party
That night, Hellis's house.
Since Miss Lacey of the Calites’s family is going to visit tonight, the Hollis’s family has made all kinds of preparations. It is reasonable to say that they should have come to apologize, but Miss Lacey sent a letter saying that it was unnecessary. She visited in person tonight.
The door to the courtyard was open, and the clean and soft carpets had already been laid. Because Lorrain Hill was heard to like to be quiet, the Hollis family did not invite other guests, only their own servants and guards lined up neatly in the courtyard.
The carriage door of Qi Yehua opened, and Lorrain Hill wore a black dress rarely seen. The pure black dress formed a sharp contrast with the fair skin. The black lace skirt and cuffs also added a strange Charm, she got off the carriage, even the shoes were small black leather shoes, and the shoes were pure white silk stockings.
"Miss Lacey from the Calites Chamber of Commerce is here~"
As the attendants at the door shouted, some melodious music sounded on both sides of the courtyard. About 20 fiddlers stood on both sides of the carpet, pulling the strings, and the soothing sound of the violin sounded like butterflies flying among the leaves.
Lorrain Hill’s blue eyes lightly swept across, these hands are gorgeously dressed, skillful, and their faces are not very like locals. They should have been temporarily invited by the Hollis family. They are really interested.
I sighed slightly in my heart, the door of the Hollis's mansion opened, revealing the brightly lit lobby, and the owner of the house, Howth, and the eldest daughter, Mei Lu, stood at the door to greet.
"Welcome Miss Lacey's visit, we have been waiting for a long time."
The bald head of the Patriarch Huss led Lorrain Hill into the hall, first led him to sit down, and then patted his palms. The girls in dancing skirts entered through the side door. One line of them wore red skirts, the other line of blue skirts, carrying For the long skirt, turn the skirt once every time you take a step. The silver patch on the skirt gleams under the light, and then another burst of music followed. This time not only the 20 fiddlers outside the courtyard sat down and played, There is also a pianist and a dozen wind musicians in the hall.
With the beat of the music, these dancers sometimes stand on tiptoes and sometimes turn their skirts to form a huge concentric circle on the dance floor of the hall. Then, as the music changes, they form a huge flower, which is blue and red. The petals of the petals bloom and sometimes close, and finally with the curtain call of the music, the dancers on the outermost periphery kneel on their backs, the middle is leaning, and the inner circle is holding up arms like flower stamens.
Lorrain Hill sits on the sofa on the steps, and in front is a coffee table with some fruits and iced juice on it.
is indeed a relatively good dance. I am a little admired, but that's it. For her who has seen all kinds of light and shadow special effects in the age of technology and a large-scale singing and dancing party with hundreds of people moving, this is really not a surprise. But it's better to give the Hollis family a face, and she approves it slightly.
Halis, the owner of the Hollis family, seemed very happy, thinking that the performance he had paid for had achieved results, but Lorrain Hill simply did not show it out of restraint.
Meilu shook her head secretly when she saw her father's expression. For this Miss Lacey, when she first met, she only thought that her appearance was unique in the world. Later, Lacey decided on a new joint project with other chambers of commerce. Waking up, and the subsequent assassination made her a little scared of this beautiful eldest lady.
I really don’t know how this Miss Lacey grew up. I have never heard of her reputation, but she is extremely skilled in business. From the recent performances of Calites, we can see that she even surpasses Angus in a vague manner. The trend in the reign not only did not flourish but declined, but it was on the rise.
I can do business like this. I'm very experienced. I have never heard of any academy that can achieve great success. It depends more on talent and insight. This is also what makes Mei Lu puzzled. Besides, Lacey's skill is definitely not weak. She feels that she has at least Sequence 4? She guessed.
kept thinking about how to face this Miss Lacey in her heart, Mei Lu saw her father's self-feeling silly appearance again, her head started to ache.
Hose is indeed a good father and a good parent, but as the head of the family, he is a bit shrewd. He used to be able to mention a few things when the old head of the family was in office. Later, after the death of his grandfather, the eldest daughter, Mei Lu, took up the role of the family's think tank.
But after all, my daughter is a daughter. She can do only a limited amount. The power in the Chamber of Commerce has gradually been dispersed by several other uncles, showing a tendency to endure.
"Niece Lace, your father and I were very good back then, and we often drank together. This time it was also uncle. I didn't manage the guard at home. I hope you don't mind."
My father wanted to expose it so easily. Mei Lu opened her eyes slightly, a little unbelievable. It was an assassination, and the other party was almost killed. Once they couldn't get it right, the two would start the war again.
"Although you had a good relationship with our Calites, it was a matter of the previous generation after all. I don't know very well. UU reading www.uukanshu.com and the guards of the Hellis family moved their swords in the street, let me Almost died, causing the entire Chamber of Commerce to fall apart. Do you think such an apology is enough?"
Sure enough, Lacey rejected such an easy reconciliation because it was no different from an insult.
"This...Niece Lacey, no, Miss Lacey, then you want to..." Hoth was a little puzzled, didn't he just smile and cheerful atmosphere? Why did it happen suddenly? It.
"Father, you are tired, so let me come." Mei Lu stood up and saluted slightly, then walked to her father's side and persuaded softly.
Hoth is still a little self-aware, knowing that his daughter is smarter, so he simply let go, saying that he is a little sleepy, and then let Meilu talk to Lacey.
As Hoth left, only the two eldest ladies, Lacey and Meilu, remained in the huge hall. The rain began to rain outside the hall, and rain continued to drip from the eaves, hitting the marble steps, the fine rain The scenery outside the house was concealed, and it looked a little fuzzy. Occasionally the sea breeze blows, the rain tilts, and some float into the hall, bringing a little coolness.
Mei Lu fiddled with the charcoal fire in the stove, then filled Lacey's cup with hot tea again, and then sat down and started talking again.
"I'm very sorry Miss Lacey, what happened that day was that our family was negligent in management, so that the guard was bought by an outsider."
"I know." Lacey held the teacup, her hair falling on the black dress, unexpectedly affirmed.
"So, what I want to ask is, what is the position of the Hellis family? Is it the same as in the past, standing with our Calites, or wanting to remain neutral and be independent. Or, you have already decided to stand. Our opposite."
Lacey's blue transparent eyes looked straight at Mei Lu, no longer giving her room to dodge.
