Chapter 251 The feeling of being at the peak of life?
Rose Castle, the sky has darkened at this moment, and the entire castle has become even more noisy inside and outside. Whether inside or outside the castle, there are crowds of people and constant traffic of carriages.
One after another, luxurious carriages drove from Winterfell towards the Rose Castle and stopped outside the majestic gate of the Rose Castle.
The butlers who had been waiting at the door quickly stepped forward to open the door, and then respectfully invited the noble gentlemen to get off the carriage with humble smiles on their faces.
The noble lords were also very polite and behaved gracefully. They did not show any indifference just because the person in front of them was a male servant.
After getting off the carriage, the nobles consciously handed the invitations in their hands to the butlers who greeted them. The butlers took the invitations respectfully, and after checking that they were correct, they became even more humble, bent over and made a gesture of invitation, and led the nobles into the castle along the brand new red carpet.
Tonight is Alice's birthday party, and all the important people in the County of Jones or the Principality have been invited.
As long as there is no special political reason, as long as the nobles receive the invitation, they will basically come to participate. There is a lack of entertainment in this world, and the best way for the nobles to entertain themselves is to attend various banquets and dances.
Moreover, for many people, being able to attend Alice's birthday party tonight means that their status and position have been recognized. The invitation sent by the Earl can be regarded as a symbol of status.
While there was a busy flow of people outside the castle gate, Gervis was in the dressing room on the third floor. At this moment, two male servants were busy around Gervis, dressing up Lord Gervis.
As Alice's husband, Gervis is also half the protagonist of the night, so his appearance must be in line with the dignity of a nobleman.
A tailor-made, luxurious silk dress is essential. The style of the dress is also the most fashionable in the Principality and comes from the best tailor shop in Winterfell. The color of the dress is dark purple, which symbolizes wealth and power.
"My lord, it's all sorted!"
The two servants had been busy in front of Gervis for more than twenty minutes. Just when Gervis was about to get impatient, the two servants finally stepped aside respectfully and reported to Gervis in a low voice.
"Oh, good!"
Gervis finally let out a long breath.
In the past, he never thought that one day it would take him more than 20 minutes to get dressed. In his previous life, Gervis thought it was unreasonable for a woman to take an hour or two before going out. It was not until today that he realized that getting dressed could really take so much time.
After hearing the servant's words, Gervis looked at himself in the bronze mirror in front of him. As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. Moreover, although the dressing process is a bit cumbersome, the effect of the dress on the body is really good.
In the bronze mirror, a handsome, wealthy and elegant young nobleman appeared before his eyes.
Nodding at the bronze mirror, Gervis walked out of the locker room contentedly. When Gervis walked out of the locker room, Alice also walked out of her locker room.
After Gervis and Alice walked out of the locker room, their eyes lit up slightly when they saw each other.
There was no need to explain why Gervis' eyes sparkled. Anyway, they sparkled every time he saw Alice. After all, few men could resist Alice's charm.
The reason why Alice saw Gervis' eyes shining was because Gervis's look today really set off his handsome appearance.
Although Gervis used to be handsome, Alice's greatest impression of Gervis was still at the first banquet, that young man who wore a cheap suit and looked handsome but had no temperament at all.
The current Gervis is different. He has integrated the memories of the original owner very well. The some characteristics of the nobility, plus the little confidence of Gervis as a time traveler, make his temperament different from most people in this world.
Temperament sounds mysterious, but it is real. Some people may look ordinary even if they dress elegantly, but some people can look extraordinary no matter what they wear. This is the difference in temperament.
If a person with good temperament is dressed in exquisite and appropriate clothes, it will make anyone's eyes light up. This is the effect of Gervis at the moment. At this moment, he finally changed Alice's deepest impression of him from an ordinary aristocratic boy to a young talent.
Alice's eyes flickered, and she walked gracefully to Gervis' side and said to him, "You will appear with me at the banquet later. After I finish my speech on the stage, you can move freely!"
Alice was afraid that Gervis would cause trouble like he did last time, so she reminded him again. After all, the guests coming this time were nobles of all sizes in the principality.
"I know! Don't worry!"
Gervis was speechless. Knowing what Alice was thinking, he could only nod helplessly without any objection.
Hearing Gervis' answer, Alice nodded and walked gracefully towards the front of the corridor.
Gervis smiled at the maid Anna behind him, blinked, and immediately walked away side by side with Alice.
When Gervis and Alice arrived on the first floor, all the guests had already entered the banquet hall, and both sides of the corridor were lined with elegant butlers and maids.
At this moment, Alice has turned into a cold goddess again, without the easy-going attitude she had on the third floor just now. This makes Gervis feel amazed, it turns out that the real superior is like this.
At this moment, Alice looked calm and composed. There was no expression on her beautiful face. Her slightly raised chin made her look like a real queen.
"The Earl and Baron Gervis are here!"
When Gervis and Alice were about to reach the door of the banquet hall, the two barons standing at the door immediately shouted loudly inside.
At this moment, Alice stretched out her left hand and gently blocked Gervis's right arm. Gervis only felt a warm jade-like feeling in his arm.
At this moment, Gervis felt a sense of pride in his heart. He subconsciously looked at Alice's pretty face and found that there was nothing abnormal on Alice's face, which made Gervis a little disappointed.
What can best highlight a man's success? Of course, it is the woman beside him. At this moment, Gervis is the most successful man in Rose Castle.
When Gervis and Alice walked into the banquet hall arm in arm, shoulder to shoulder, everyone in the room unconsciously made way for them.
Everyone was first deeply amazed by Alice's coldness, and then they looked at Gervis with complicated eyes. Gervis was not afraid of these complicated and slightly jealous looks at all. Instead, he stood straighter and the smile on his face became brighter.
"Haha! Is this what it feels like to be at the peak of life?"
It would be a lie to say that Gervis was not proud at this moment. After all, it was others who were looking at him with jealousy, not himself. Isn't that the day that all men hope to have?
Thinking of this, Gervis moved his feet a little closer to Alice. When he moved a little closer, he felt Alice's arm tremble slightly, which made Gervis dare not go any further.
It was obvious that Alice was shocked by Gervis's behavior just now.
"This cheap wife is so shy."
Gervis didn't expect Alice to have such a big reaction.
Thanks to the book friend "天青色暴雨" for the reward!!!
