After The Legend Chapter 6 Part1

Winnie woke up in her reverie and returned to her professional nanny role: "I checked it. It's in the northern fortress 30 kilometers away from here. I heard Master Chulov is there for business. I already sent the message to the owner of the grocery store. I think master Chulov will send someone soon. "

Dora said: "That's great. It only takes half a day to ride a horse. I'll be much relieve to return the gift earlier."

"Miss, do you really want to return that dress?" asked Winnie. "That's the Master Chulov's idea. Besides aren't you planning on earning face for Master Aaron at the May Day Ball?"

Dora smiled: "I just need to know Easton's most fas.h.i.+onable dress and I can instead buy a silk. Although Aaron yielded, he must be very unhappy. Take advantage of his absence and return the dresses, lest he later remember it and blame me. "

She looked at the two beautiful paper boxes on the table, opened one of the larger ones, touched the unusual soft and smooth dress inside and sighed: "The silk fabric was soaked in the juice of moonlight gra.s.s. I don't know if I have the chance to wear it in my life."

Winnie couldn't help but feel sorry for her Mistress: "Oh, my poor Miss Dora, you should have been the most dazzling pearl in Easton. If you hadn't married the Master, you wouldn't have to endure such a day." Thinking of Aaron, she was a little dissatisfied: "Although his father is great, but with such a mother, it's no wonder that Master will not be a promising mother."

Dora interrupted her, "Enough!" At last, she took a look at the dress that radiated light. She simply closed the box cover: "This is only temporary. One day, Aaron will come out and take our family out of this ghost place!"

The next day, Goodwin came to their house and took back the present. Although he think it was a pity but in the face of Dora who kept apologizing, he spoke kindly and expressed his understanding to her approach. He also sincerely wished for both husband and wife's speedy reconciliation.

Dora looked at him gratefully as she watched him leave. Sighing in her heart, he is such a good person, but why didn't she fall in love with him?

At this time, Xiao Tianjian came back with Mina after practicing Qinggong. When he saw the distant carriage, he felt it was familiar. Dora only vaguely said that she had a guest, but she didn't say much.

She just wiped her daughter's sweat anxiously and complained in a low voice: "Look at how tired you are. What do girls learn from those? "

"I'm hungry! I want to eat Winnie's small round cake!" Minna cried out indifferently Dora said, "Winnie is busy making clothes for May Day. She doesn't have time for dessert. Let Marshall make them for you."

Minna shouted "Grandpa Marshall, I'm going to eat a small round cake", and ran to the kitchen to find the old butler. Seeing that he was sitting beside the desk in a daze and didn't seem to have much spirit, so she asked "Grandpa Marshall, are you sick?"

Marshall woke up and waved his hand. "No, it's just that I'm getting old and a little bit down."

Suddenly, Xiao Tianjian  who followed his granddaughter, entered in the kitchen. Marshall stood up and bowed: "Are you back? Please wait a moment and I'll make the pancake. "

Xiao Tianjian said with a faint smile: "It doesn't matter. If you're not well, you can rest. But I remembered that you are only two years younger than me. It's not good for your body to serve us so early.1 [这么早就服老可不行]"

Marshall smiled, but insisted on measuring the flour. Minna felt a little sad when she saw that he seemed very tired. She urged him, "Grandpa Marshall, I don't want to eat any more. Don't do it."

Marshall smiled and pushed her out of the kitchen. "Sit back and I'll do it right away." Then he turned around and went back to work. Minna had to give in, but she didn't run out. She just took a small bench and sat on the edge of the small tea table in the corner of the kitchen. As usual, she helped Marshall wipe the cup for tea.

Looking at the scene, Xiao Tianjian doesn't know what to feel.

Marshall was the youngest son of the old housekeeper of the Cardo Family.

Marshall and Mary who were both servants are childhood sweethearts. Everyone thought they would be a couple but the appearance of Xiao Tianjian stole Mary's heart. In fact, Xiao Tianjian knew that Mary only regarded Marshall as his elder brother and the latter didn't prevent Mary from falling in love with others.

Xiao Tianjian had been under impression that there was no love between men and women between them until he saw that Mary and Marshall getting along happily. He felt cheated which is why he did not bother to listen nor ask them questions for several years.

Now he knew that Mary is actually faithful to him and it was merely Marshall who thought of her differently, but he was a little confused. With Marshall's father's ident.i.ty and the Cardo Family's background, Marshall could have a better future. It's also possible to be a Head Butler of the aristocracy. Why would he be willing to stay with Aaron as a butler and as a mere manservant? And even cook in person.

Xiao Tianjian couldn't understand Marshall's intention, but in any case, he never regarded this man as an opponent. But now, this man has obviously become a member of the family and even replaced his "Grandpa" role to some extent, which made him feel uncomfortable.

A few days later, when Aaron returned home from the mountains where the dwarfs lived, he was surprised to find that his father and his family were getting along so well.
