There were three members of their family sitting on the long table that was four to five meters long. The other maids were all standing aside. No one spoke, not even breathing could be heard.
Li Fuguang ate white bread, which tasted like chewing wax, but even so, she did not dare to make a chewing sound.
She was completely powerless now, and she didn't dare to act rashly until she knew the situation clearly. Otherwise, when the cheap brother kissed her on the mouth, she would have been greeted with her fist instead of pretending to be stupid.
After finishing the meal with difficulty, Li Fuguang put down his knife and fork and sat quietly waiting for the next arrangement.
"Father", the owner of the manor, left when Li Fuguang was halfway through his meal, followed by a gray-haired old butler.
Li Fuguang was very worried about the old housekeeper's health. After all, he looked like he was going to be in a coffin in the next second.
A few minutes after Li Fuguang put down his knife and fork, Li Fuguang's "brother" also put down his knife and fork.
He could finally cast his noble eyes on his sister.
"Maya, today is a day of prayer. If you still make trouble like before, don't blame me for not interceding for you when my father taught you a lesson."
There it is again, Day of Prayer!
Li Fuguang secretly remembered this word. It seems that today is a very important day.
The elder brother couldn't help but sigh when he saw his sister's obviously distracted expression.
"Anna, you can't let the lady out of your sight today. If Maya does anything drastic, please report it directly to my deputy Abner. He will not leave the horse farm in the manor all day."
Anna lowered her head when "brother" spoke. It wasn't until "brother" finished giving the order that she replied: "Yes, Master Herbert."
Li Fuguang kept her sitting posture still, but her ears were not idle. She finally knew the name of her cheap brother!
Herbert!
What a mouthful!
There is also a deputy named Abner. Does the Cavaliers have a deputy?
After saying this, Herbert took a deep look at Li Fuguang, dressed up and walked out of the door.
Herbert walked out of the hall, and the remaining maids began to clear the table spontaneously.
Anna breathed a sigh of relief and asked Li Fuguang:
"Miss, what are we doing today?"
Li Fuguang did not answer immediately, but stared at the maids around him several times.
She was indeed right. After "Father" and Herbert left, although these maids did not act excessively, their expressions were obviously much more relaxed. They even started cleaning up while she was still sitting on her seat.
This can show that the father and son must have a very strict attitude towards their servants, but he has no dignity in front of his servants.
But this also makes it easier for her to get information.
"Let's go out and walk around."
Li Fuguang stood up and walked towards the door.
Anna followed behind, but she was much more lively and chattering than before.
"Hey, by the way, Anna, have you had breakfast? I'm going to go a long way later, so I can't go hungry."
Anna stuck out her tongue playfully,
"I've already eaten! Don't worry, Miss Maya, I will always be with you and I won't be left behind!"
Because of the problem with her skirt, Li Fuguang couldn't walk fast now. In addition, the castle was relatively large. She and Anna talked for a long time before they could even walk to the gate.
Well, how did those women in ancient times get used to walking in these skirts?
Or do people wearing such complicated skirts not have to walk at all?
Li Fuguang thought of a possibility, and she grabbed Anna's hand.
"Can we travel by carriage?"
Anna's face was not red and she was out of breath. She pointed to the door with a little doubt.
"Miss, you have forgotten that we always travel by carriage!"
Li Fuguang laughed, "I didn't sleep well yesterday, so I forgot all about it!"
Anna didn't dwell on this, but secretly made a note to put less ice in the room tonight, seeing as Miss Maya was too cold to sleep at night!
"By the way, Miss Maya, we went to the east yesterday, shall we go to the west today? Adjutant Abner is at the racecourse. Maybe we can see his heroic appearance on a horse!"
After talking about it, Anna's whole face flushed strangely.
Li Fuguang's face showed the excitement of eating melon,
"Yo yo yo, Ma Ma's heroic appearance, do you like him?"
Anna did not deny it, but lowered her head and twisted her body, putting her two index fingers together and clicking.
Li Fuguang was a little surprised now. If Anna had denied it just now, then she could still think that it was the girl who was pregnant.
But the way she neither denies nor admits it looks like she is in love!
I just hope that love here can be a little freer, otherwise a maid and a knight's adjutant would be impossible even if you think about it, right?
After getting into the carriage, the two set off towards the racecourse.
Along the way, Li Fuguang got a lot of information by teasing the relationship between Anna and Abner.
For example, the manor she lives in is called Manor d'Este, and her "father" is called Borrie d'Este, an earl. Their family rose to prominence 18 years ago...
A lot was said, but the identity of the original owner’s mother was not mentioned at all.
Even if Li Fuguang was a fool, she still noticed this "disappeared" person.
She also asked Anna in a vague way, but Anna's attitude seemed to be that she really didn't know anything, rather than deliberately hiding something.
"The count's wife, the mother of you and Master Herbert, seems to have died in childbirth while giving birth to you."
Having said this, Anna raised her head and glanced at Li Fuguang worriedly.
"I became your personal maid five years ago. I don't know much about your mother. But the Earl has always been very affectionate to your mother and has not married again in these years..."
Is that so?
The original owner's mother had a difficult time giving birth to her, and her father was so distraught that he stopped marrying in 18 years.
Does this character really fit that stern old man?
Is this possible in a thriller game?
Li Fuguang was skeptical.
…
The manor was very large, and the carriage took about ten minutes to reach the racecourse.
From a distance, Li Fuguang saw a tall and strong blond man galloping on a strong white horse.
Running, jumping, all movements look so smooth and fit.
Li Fuguang understood why Anna fell in love with this adjutant.
This figure, this face!
In modern times, she is a proper male model!
Although Li Fuguang didn't show an expression of obsession like Anna, his eyes were full of amazement.
Abner and his partners were training and sweating. He had already seen the approaching carriage and quickly recognized that it was Miss Maya's unique carriage.
He felt strange that he knew that Miss Maya was keen on driving a carriage in the fields and persuading the slaves to give up their foolish beliefs.
But she never came to the racecourse to persuade her.
What attitude should I take then?
After all, she was Master Herbert's sister and the daughter of Earl Burry. Even though everyone in the manor complained about her blasphemous behavior, no one dared to object.
Forget it, pretend not to see it.
If he didn't pay attention to her after more than ten minutes, she would give up.
