Creator's Steam Fairy

Chapter 185

The news of the Duke of Wellington's death was overwhelming in the newspapers, and now Loria could even recite his biography in full... probably it was not a good word.

Even if he was the hero who led the coalition forces to defeat Emperor Gallia, and was awarded the title of marshal by eight countries, but just serving as prime minister for one term is enough to destroy all his popularity.

Moreover, his prime minister did not do well, because he was stubbornly conservative and rejected all innovations, and was even besieged by angry people—perhaps out of anger, the Duke later ordered every broken window to be installed iron plate.His mansion has been covered with thick iron plates for decades, no one knows how his servants are ventilated, but he has earned the scornful title of 'Duke of Iron Window'.

He had a stroke 20 years ago, and several more since, and since the birth of Uriah's generation, little has been heard about him, and now he's dead with a dusty memory It was rummaged out by people again, and it was noisy for a while.

After three days of this modern history teaching, almost all newspapers reached a tacit agreement and began to publish advertisements about the death of the Duke overwhelmingly.

For example, E&C Whistler Brothers Tailor Shop, they seem embarrassed to directly use the Duke's death to promote, but they also euphemistically stated that they have everything in the shop, and can also customize mourning clothes for customers,'including one should attend The perfect little accessory for every occasion. '

When Loria's tailor lady brought her two pure black gauze dresses, one thin and one thick, as well as the corresponding cloak and burqa, news came from the palace that a state funeral would be held for the dead Duke of Wellington, and invited The important officials from the countries that granted him the title of Marshal will come—in other words, except for Gallia, almost all major countries will send people to come.

Because the state funeral needs to be borne by the Ministry of Finance, the final decision and plan must be negotiated by the Parliament—judging from the extent to which the ruling Liberals hate the Duke of Wellington, there may be a long quarrel.

Miss Loria wished that they would quarrel as long as possible. If this matter is not over, she can enjoy the unlimited paid leave given by Sasha.

It’s just that the advertisements in the newspapers are breaking the limit. A knitting shop run by people from Xihai bought the second page to introduce the last state funeral held in Britannia—the funeral of Admiral Nelson. Fantastic conclusion...Standing for a long time in the rainy weather is bad for your health, many dignitaries and important people have died of diseases from the humidity...so buy it quickly, the knitted socks and stockings of Nerei Knitting Shop keep you warm and dry .

Even the newspaper itself is no exception, some of the newspapers she subscribes to have a special offer on the front page, or order a newspaper to send a copper plate portrait of the Duke of Wellington, or send some cheap but useful black silk cloth to readers And a small badge—according to the rules, a black cloth must be hung at the door on the day of a state funeral.

I don't know if the Duke's death will push Longtinion's business prosperity to a new high. Now the theater is rehearsing the story of him defeating Emperor Galia, and various places that Loria has never heard of are holding various events. There are various fee-paying exhibitions that have something to do with the Duke of Wellington, and even the few small museums and galleries owned by the Natural History Society are not exempt.

The whole city seemed to usher in a major festival, full of joy and anticipation.

Now Luria doesn't get up until noon every day, and she has to stay in bed for lunch... Anyway, she has the final say in this family, and every time Abby whispers to her, there is nothing she can do about it.

In the afternoon, she would either lie on the bed and read in a daze, or go to play with Ulea and Zoe.Every night, I am working hard for the ambition of eating all the restaurants in Longtinion, and I also wrote some reviews by the way... Because Miss Fenmao eats very hard, the authenticity of the writing is higher, unconsciously There are also some loyal readers who don't know where to spend their time at night.

The remuneration paid by the Isis newspaper has increased again, but it is still nothing compared to the money she spends on dining out... The happiest thing is the few letters from readers forwarded by the newspaper. The unique food, I hope she will eat it when she is free, and write some reviews by the way.

It was not until much later that Loria realized that most of the so-called readers were restaurateurs.

Her happy life didn't last long.

When the news of Earl Fries' transfer gradually spread, all kinds of invitations poured in. Loria couldn't figure out the chaotic interpersonal relationship. When she asked Sasha, she only got the answer of "you can figure it out". I can only ask Uriah for advice from time to time - which ones can be ignored, which ones are best to go, which ones have to go after repeated evasions, which ones should bring gifts, and which ones should write a thank you letter after the invitation is over.

"What would I do without you?"

Half of Luria was hanging on Uriah's body, whimpering softly in a nasal voice.

She couldn't even remember how many damn balls this was, if she hadn't been two months away from becoming an adult, if she hadn't found clever excuses to drag Uriah along every time, she felt that she would be bored dead.

"Then stop stepping on me, please? Dear Miss Estelle, I have already been trampled on two pairs of shoes by you, and please stay away from me, it's so hot."

Yulea pushed back some of the pink hair on her body in distaste, and carried her to a corner. Covered by the hanging curtain, she dragged Luria away while no one was paying attention.

"I'm not very opposed to this kind of traditional activity, but are these people unable to hold back their heat in July?"

After sneaking into a corner where no one was around, Yulia threw away her pink hair, rolled her eyes and started muttering: "Look at those two just now, they were jumping and jumping and they were almost sticking together. I was wrong, you today I shouldn’t have come, I thought they wanted to meet the new Earl of Fries, but they ended up holding a blind date meeting under your guise.”

Because of this, the fact that Miss Loria took over as the Earl of Fries obviously boosted the marriage rate of some people, and even raised the birth rate in 532.

Luo Liya, who lacked education in some aspects, asked: "Aren't we also posted together?"

If the relationship is good, there is nothing strange about posting back and forth.

Before, she liked to hang on Miss Iris.

Although every time Sasha would look at them with jealous eyes.

Then he would make excuses to hit her.

"Of course it's different, you idiot."

Uriah blushed once in a while, and swiftly slashed a hand knife on the head of the pink hair dyed blond.

"Everything loves hitting me on the head!"

Loria covered her head to express her dissatisfaction.

And Yulia hummed proudly: "Because you can't beat me."

She is one year older, half a head taller than Fenmao, and even her hands are longer.

Luo Liya rolled her eyes, then stared at her own shadow coldly.

Ulea is a good friend, but she cannot be killed by mistake.

However, as a counterattack, Luria swooped and hung herself on Ulea, who was very afraid of the heat.

This is called dry hot stickers.

Chapter 186 You Can Hit Me On The Head, But You Can't Steal My Candy

As we all know, Hot Tie Tie is a double-edged sword, and Miss Uriah is a stubborn girl who refuses to admit defeat easily.

So, they were all overheated.

You don’t even need to play the old trick of spilling the juice on the skirts. When the two ladies with sweaty heads, disheveled clothes and wet skirts appeared, the master of the ball was afraid that they might have some sudden illness, so he hurriedly dispatched the carriage handles. They sent them home.

But after that, some inexplicable rumors began to spread... For example, the topic of the delicate relationship between the lady of the Earl of Luton's family and the little pink-haired Earl of Ferris.

In addition, they always participate in various social activities together arm in arm, and they always leave early together because of various small accidents-what can this explain?

It doesn't explain anything, everyone just sighs that young people nowadays are so impatient, they don't even want to wait until they go home.

Luria, who doesn't know anything, and Yulia, who actually doesn't understand anything, naturally don't understand how they are being fantasized, but since there is no winner, let's fight again tomorrow.

Go to Rabbit Hill, the small estate of the Earl of Luton, and hunt rabbits competitively.

Each person is only allowed to bring one helper, and there are no restrictions on weapons and methods. Whoever hunts more wins, and the loser has to wear winter clothes and stay in the hot water room on the Bank Street all day.

Zoe is also going along, but as an accompanying runner, she is just making up the number, and she doesn't have to be punished if she loses.

Ulea felt that she had the chance to win. She has always liked dogs and was very familiar with the dogs of her relatives. This time she lent them together. She even persuaded her father to invite a famous dog trainer for her... …Looking at a large group of more than [-] hounds of various breeds, she has already seen Xiaofenmao crying and begging for mercy.

Although she is a bit rambunctious, she wants to win.

When Zoe received the invitation, she didn't make any preparations. It was just an ordinary game. She didn't even plan to invite foreign aid. She went to bed early as soon as it got dark, and told her maid to wake her up on time. To go outdoors with friends.

In the middle of the night, Luo Liya was sharpening her knife in the forest. She had never hunted before, not even a hunting dog... But, who made her slightly different from ordinary people, and had a slight advantage?

She doesn't even need a helper, and the unlimited weapons and methods mean she can use magic and magic items...Evil spirits can't be counted as people, and neither can the dog thief Gu.

Besides, she was very familiar with firearms.

Sharpening the chicken-killing knife, she touched Tumei's nest and patted its belly.

To maintain beauty for a thousand days is to use one moment for beauty.

Luo Liya smiled and asked in a discussing tone: "Tumei, tomorrow you will be a hunting dog and be responsible for transporting the prey back to the camp. Is it okay?"

Can there be a problem?Looking at Fenmao who was smiling brightly in the woods late at night, Tumei woke up and patted her belly to say it was okay.

Miss Pink Hair, you don't need to put a knife on my neck.

old rabbit beauty

Make sure to get all the bunny nests in Rabbit Mound.

Loria smiled even more sweetly, and she had seen Uriah crying and begging for mercy pitifully.

……

Early the next morning, Luria, who was so excited that she didn't sleep well, woke up Paula, and carried a knife to wake up Tumei who was sleeping on her back. The bell rang in front of No. 23 Road, and Abigail and Paula loaded the things prepared the night before into the carriage.

"You have to take good care of Miss, don't let her run around in the wild, and don't let her pick up weird mushrooms in the woods to eat."

Before getting into the car, Abigail grabbed Paula and kept urging her. Loria rolled her eyes, not knowing who was taking care of whom.

"Okay, I'll take good care of Paula and bring you some special products in a few days."

She patted the small box in her arms and gritted her teeth at Abigail. The weapons inside were more than enough for hunting.

When the carriage started to move towards the north of the city, the slight bumps and shakes made people drowsy. Miss Loria, who patted her chest and promised to take care of Paula 10 minutes ago, tilted her head and fell asleep leaning on the shoulder of the little maid. caught.

Paula was so startled that she didn't dare to move, she tried her best to keep her body in a sitting position, for fear of waking the young lady, while the smelly long-eared guinea pig, who was used to bullying her, kicked her hard twice after confirming that she was asleep , jumped to the opposite seat, put his head on his pillow and raised his legs with a provocative face.

Paula could only lower her head, not to look at the proud face of the long-eared guinea pig.

In the past, she always felt pitiful, and would sigh in a daze in a corner where no one was around, but now it was different, she was doing something very meaningful, every minute and every second, she would let the young lady rest as much as possible—not much older than her The [-]-year-old girl works alone to support her family, providing her with unimaginable good food and clothing for the useless, but she can't even feed a rabbit.

Therefore, the long and congested road from the city to the northern suburbs also became meaningful because of the weight on her shoulders, and the country road from the northern suburbs to the unknown rabbit hill, she only hoped that she could become as comfortable as possible. Longer, longer.

Fortunately, Miss Loria is also very thin, otherwise her small body that has only just begun to grow some flesh would be really unbearable. Long after the sky brightened, when even Paula began to feel drowsy, suddenly Woke up by a slight movement.

She saw that annoying rabbit quietly put its paws into the pocket of the lady's overalls and fumbled. She just wanted to wake up the lady, but she didn't know whether petty theft was a problem, so she could only watch anxiously. Watching Tumei take out a piece of chocolate, she swallowed the wrapping paper together.

Paula was in great confusion. She still couldn't figure out whether the super-eatable rabbit was a pet or a skinned livestock, and she didn't know whether she would be considered nosy by the lady if she reported it afterwards.

She didn't struggle for too long, and Loria suddenly muttered, 'Where's my candy? ', and then sat up straight, looking as if he was in a daze and didn't wake up at all.

Paula was staring blankly at her young lady's loose light-blond hair and white neck, wondering how a sleeping person knew that her candy was gone, when Loria's half-asleep eyes swept across Her face didn't stop, and then she grabbed the rabbit with puffed cheeks and pretended to be sleeping, and threw it out of the carriage window.

The little head tilted, and the miss fell asleep again.

Alas?

Whether it is a pet or a domestic animal waiting to be skinned, it would be too wasteful to just throw it away.

Paula hesitated to speak, and wanted to stop the carriage several times to retrieve the rabbit, but thinking of the bullying she had suffered for more than half a year, she suppressed her impulse again.

Half an hour later, Yulia, who came to Rabbit Hill Manor the night before, was walking her dog on the grass when she saw a rabbit galloping on two legs, whining and crying, following a carriage passing by down the path leading to her estate.

Chapter 187

"You don't worry that you won't be able to kill the rabbit, just buy one and let it come along."

Ulea smiled and came to meet Loria outside the gate. There was thin sweat on her forehead, and her beagles stretched out their tongues on the ground and panted, which made the weather hot and dry.

"What rabbit? This is my dog."

Luo Liya rolled her eyes, pointed at Tumei again, "Call out."

Tumei: "Wow!"

Yulia was startled, and shouted: "How is it possible, where is there a dog that grows up like this!"

When they were debating the definition of a dog, those beagles surrounded Tumei curiously, but the rabbit stood straight on its legs and had a fat belly, which made them uncertain what to do for a while. You shouldn't pounce on it and bite it.

Tumei put her hands on her waist triumphantly, raised her head and hummed, looked at these dogs with disdain, then suddenly raised her voice and barked, scaring the puppies back again and again.

Heh, these uneducated stupid dogs, Tumei knows several foreign languages.

Under Ulea's curious gaze, Tumei held her head high, raised her hips and tightened her abdomen... Tighten her abdomen hard, and then tighten her stomach again.

Recently, her abdominal muscles are not very obedient. Tumei, who failed to control her belly, turned her head away with a snort, and was about to walk away, but was bitten on her buttocks from behind by a vengeful puppy.

With a piercing cry, Tumei ran away, causing a group of puppies to swarm up behind her.

Ulea asked worriedly, "Is your rabbit...is your dog okay?"

Its bark is so serious and standard that even Uriah, who is experienced in raising dogs, couldn't help but change his mouth.

"It's okay, it's good to run, just to lose weight."

Loria thought to herself that you don't know how fast this rabbit ran while dodging bullets, and it would be hell if these dogs could catch up with it, so she took Uriah's arm and went to wait in the garden under the big parasol zoe.

Although they were thinking about each other's crying and begging for mercy, the two ladies were smiling at Yan Yan, and they looked very close.

Luria has her own reliance, and Yulia brought a barking rabbit and a little maid when she saw her... They both felt that the other party was doomed, but they didn't open their mouths to beg for mercy and lose half of the words, but talked to each other The voice became more and more sweet all the time, and the servants who asked the far away to help carry the luggage were slandering these two hypocritical little girls in their hearts.

When Luria added honey to the tea for the third time, there was a brisk sound of horseshoes, and when she looked over, she saw Zoe in riding clothes and her personal maid riding past the door at a leisurely pace... Lai Xihai The little girl on the horse waved at them, seeming very satisfied with the stunned look of these two bad women who usually bully her.

Hehe, she is a child who has been herding horses in the plantation since she was a child, and she will arrive in a short time at this distance. In order to appear on the stage, she deliberately took a bath and slept in the cage before setting off.

Turning her head to look at the odds and ends that Luria hadn't finished moving, and then at her immediate luggage, Zooey couldn't help laughing, these ladies in the city always look dumbfounded when they arrive in the country , You have to bring this and that, it's annoying to death.

Xihai people only need a horse and a gun to dare to travel far.

Zoe pulled the rein, controlled the horse to circle around the spot a few times, and took off her hat to pay tribute to Loria and her cousin like a man. After finally waiting for the numbness in her thighs and the pain in her buttocks, she got off the horse neatly , threw the horsewhip to the manor servant who was in a hurry, took off the rifle on his back and the bullet belt around his waist, and stuffed them together for his maid to deal with, and then walked towards the two men who were talking about the hunting results. A fool in a fussy dress.

How should I lose now?

Zooey smiled so much that her eyes narrowed.

Luria and Yulea exchanged glances, did not expect that the running companion was actually a strong rival?

The two of them can also ride a horse, but it's the kind of horse that needs to be supported up and down, and also led to walk slowly-look at the horse's mouth so big that it can swallow their heads in one bite, why do humans want to ride horses? Playing with this huge and violent beast?
