Chapter 36: Marques Brown Tea Party (2)
Aurora was dressed more mature and elegant, which also seemed to suit her personality more.
On the other hand, Adela was more lively and active. But at the same time, she was someone who couldn’t follow the etiquette well enough. Or it would be better to say not yet.
After all, Adela was still young.
But using this young word... it didn’t seem to be appropriate considering that Aurora was only around 1 year older than Adela.
Marques Brown had some thoughts inside her mind, but she showed none of those on the surface.
"My daughter, Annelie, is inside." Marques Brown smiled. "I’m sure that they will all get along just fine."
"Yes, Marques Brown."
Aurora thought about Annelie Brown, the daughter of Marquis and Marques Brown. She was known to have elegant demeanor following her mother. But just like her, she hadn’t made her debut yet, so not many people truly know her appearance.
These were mostly only rumors spread in the high society that Aurora heard from her mother.
Neither Aurora or Adela had made their debut.
So for them to know the rumors in the high society, they would have to hear them from Duchess Isabella. Thankfully, Duchess Isabella often shared these gossips after they ate together if Duke White was not present.
Beside Aurora, Adela’s delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.
They walked inside and found Annelie Brown surrounded by a few other girls. Annelie was very similar to her mother. She has long curly brown hair and dressed in beautiful red dress, making her look strikingly beautiful.
Annelie Brown saw them and quickly curtsied, "Miss Aurora, I am Annelie Brown. It’s a pleasure to meet you."
"It’s a pleasure to meet you too, Miss Annelie," Aurora replied.
"Yes, it’s a pleasure to see you, Miss Annelie," Adela quickly followed suit, but her words were a bit slower than her older sister.
Annelie could hear Adela’s words and her eyebrows furrowed slightly for a moment before she relaxed.
She was a year older than Aurora and Adela as she was already 12 years old. Even if she was not the oldest, she was still more mature than the other girls.
The other girls quickly stepped forward to greet Aurora and Adela.
The reason was obvious.
The two of them were the only duke daughters in this hall.
The other two dukedom didn’t have any daughters, which was one of the reasons why Aurora was able to become the fiancée of Crown Prince Edward easily. The other noble girls were only the Marquis daughters, which the Royal Family didn’t want to.
The Queen herself came from another duchy, but she was not the head of the family.
"Please take a seat." Annelie led them to the seat.
Since both Aurora and Adela had the highest status here, they were naturally given the best seat.
"Thank you," Aurora said with a smile and then sat down elegantly.
Beside Aurora, Adela could see the admiration in the eyes of the other girls when they were looking in Aurora’s direction. If Adela had to say for herself, Aurora had impeccable performance.
Her etiquette was really perfect and no one would be able to fault her.
Even though these movements were really tiring to do, but if they were done perfectly, it does look very good.
Adela was not used to these strict etiquette and felt that her body was hurt when she was training. But she also knew that if she wanted to have others respect her, she had to have appropriate demeanor.
’Nobility is really a hassle.’
"Miss Aurora, please taste the tea. My mother brought a new type of tea from our territory," Annelie said with a smile.
Aurora nodded and smiled.
Marquis Brown’s territory was located at the north and didn’t directly border Duke White’s territory. It could be said that the two territories were a bit far from each other and in normal times, the two rarely interacted.
Marquis Brown territory was located at higher ground and have some social corps. Their tea were really famous.
"The taste is mellow and sweet," Aurora said. "Is this tea going to be mass produced?"
Annelie smiled when she heard Aurora’s words. "My dad said that the amount is too small for the time being, but it might be possible within a few years."
"In that case, how about try selling them to our territory? I’m sure the people there would be happy to be able to drink more of this tea," Aurora asked.
"The price of the tea..."
For some reasons, the conversation turned into business prospect and the other girls were laughing.
They felt that the tea was good, but it was not to the point they would want to introduce it to their territory.
Of course, everyone put on a smile on their faces.
Aurora herself knew that this new type of tea would only bring more variety for the already existing tea. Besides, her goal was not really to pull the business.
She wanted to know more about the tea from Annelie.
