Chapter 45 The Awakening Baroness
The baron nodded and took a deep breath.
As a result, too much smoke was recycled, and I accidentally choked myself and turned blue.
Barrett quickly stretched out a fist and hit him hard on the back.
"Huntington, listen to me, don't let this kind of thing happen to your home again."
Pankolov shook his head: "You bastards, haven't you heard of the saying that staying away from women means staying away from trouble? You always try your best to find trouble for yourself?"
The Baron and Barrett both looked at Pankolov with a very strange look in their eyes.
Pankolov quickly turned his head aside, feeling extremely annoyed.
"Damn it, they seem to know about that!"
The trouble Candy is encountering now started fifteen minutes ago.
This restless night gradually affected everyone's sleep little by little.
The residence of the Baron and his Lady is in the north tower, which is the exclusive tower of each owner of the castle.
It is also the tallest, majestic and luxurious tower among all the towers.
Like all families with enough room, the couple in their late 40s each had their own room.
The Baron could leave the tower at any time without disturbing the Baroness.
Baroness Jacqueline is not from Moxu, she comes from a famous family on the mainland.
A prosperous life and good education gave her enough beauty and noble temperament.
It is said that the Baron and the Lady met in an ancient country in the East.
Shortly after the two married, the Baron was summoned by His Majesty the King and returned to the army.
Most of the time he was busy leading the army and fighting in the New World or the Old World.
In about fifteen years, everything in the castle was handed over to the Baroness.
The Baroness had no complaints about this and managed the entire castle and estate with great care.
She took good care of everything in the castle and the entire territory.
In all territories and other territories, as long as she knows about the conflicts between people in the territory, she can always resolve them properly.
Financially, she has the vision and courage to match the most successful businessman in the Demon Ruins.
The ale brewery and large-scale tobacco cultivation in the territory were started when she came to power.
Now one-third of the ale and two-thirds of the tobacco in the entire Demon Ruins come from Huntington Manor.
Excluding the baron's wealth from outside the territory, the Huntington family's wealth more than tripled in fifteen years.
She even established a fund to help veterans who had served under the baron solve their difficulties.
Therefore, the Baroness enjoys high prestige throughout the territory.
Since the Baron left the military and political circles and returned to the castle, she immediately gave the Baron all the rights in her hands.
That day, the servants even heard the lady's singing from the northern tower, which was very rare.
It is said that the reason why the Baron fell in love with the Baroness was because he accidentally heard her singing.
It is said that when she went to college in Vilna, the music capital of the Old World, she was called Vilna's lark.
But, for some reason, she rarely sings since she got married.
Most of the time she stayed in her castle reading, or simply stood on the top of the tower and watched the scenery of the hills to the north of the castle.
Except for eating and listening to the pianist teach the two young ladies how to play the piano, she rarely left the northern tower.
The Baroness' window faces the hills to the north.
Because her two beloved daughters are not in the castle tonight, but on the beach over the northern hills.
She sleeps with the windows and curtains open.
Even so, because she has always maintained good work and rest habits.
When Captain Jack's pirate ship exploded, the beam of light did not wake her up.
The sound of those explosives thrown by Charlie on the hills could not be heard here.
When the first "shooting star" flew past, the Baroness turned over in bed.
When the second "shooting star" flew past, the Baroness opened her eyes.
Her eyes were large and clear, and probably because of this, she saw the tail left by the "shooting star".
The Baroness put on her dressing gown, walked to the balcony, and looked into the distance.
After watching for a while, she walked out of the balcony and returned to the room.
The Baroness walked to the door and spoke softly to the outside.
"Hu Mei, are you outside?"
The other party seemed to have been prepared for a long time and had been standing outside the door waiting for an answer.
"Yes ma'am, you know I'm always here" the voice seemed to be heard from opposite her.
The baroness opened the door, and a charming face appeared in front of her.
In the past five years, unless Hu Mei had something urgent to deal with.
When the Baroness opens the door, she can always see Hu Mei standing outside her door.
The Baroness met Hu Mei while she was in the Eastern Continent five years ago when she went to the Eastern Continent for business matters.
It is said that there is a very legendary story in it.
Later, she followed the Baroness to the Demon Market and stayed with the Baroness most of the time.
Sometimes they have a master-servant relationship, and sometimes they are like friends.
It is said that Butler Xiong has been with the Baron since he was an officer under the Baron five years ago.
When they first met Hu Mei, the two of them didn't know why.
According to Dongfang Continent, we had a "discussion" with each other.
It is said that Butler Xiong suffered a lot when he took action.
Then, this big man who looked like a black bear kept pursuing Hu Mei as if possessed by an evil spirit.
According to Butler Xiong's words: "I follow the Baron in the army, and you dress the lady at home. Shouldn't we be together?"
So every time the baron sends a gift to the baroness from the New World or the Old World.
There is always a copy given to Butler Hu by Butler Xiong.
Butler Hu refused Butler Xiong's pursuit, but he was always very happy when accepting gifts.
When the Baroness asked her questions, she usually answered like this.
"Madam, someone worked so hard to send it, why not? In our east, waste is a very shameful thing."
She paused, and Hu Mei's eyes shone with a strange light.
"Besides, it doesn't cost any money anyway!"
baroness"······"
This game of pursuit between the two men continued until the baron left the army.
There is an unconfirmed theory that Butler Xiong refused to stay in the army precisely because of Butler Hu.
Butler Xiong even refused the cabinet's hints to him. After he had enough seniority, he could get hints of the baron's previous position.
After arriving at the castle, his slogan of pursuing Butler Hu was adjusted accordingly.
"It's so abnormal that both male and female housekeepers in a castle have no partners. Shouldn't we form a beautiful family? In that case, two problems can be solved at once!"
But Hu Mei was not interested in this "rough guy" at all.
