The sickly boss always wants to get close to her
Chapter 245: Childhood Chapter Derived from Cinderella (6)
There was a flash of surprise in Anastasia and Dusula's eyes. In just two days, it was enough to see that this young lady was not favored by the Duke.
Is it okay to just take him there like this?
Wouldn’t that annoy the Duke?
They looked at each other, and then quickly thought that it would be a good idea to annoy the Duke so that their mother would not have to marry him.
So that's what my mother was planning.
Thinking of this, although the two were dissatisfied, they did not try to stop it.
Cinderella walked beside Chu Bainiao, holding her hand tightly, feeling as happy as if she was walking on clouds.
I’m so happy. I’m holding hands with Aunt Chu. That’s great.
He smiled with his eyes narrowed. He was very satisfied with everything that had happened so far, except the thing in his pocket... he had to find a chance to put it back.
"Hey, why didn't I see any servants along the way?" Anastasia asked puzzledly.
"Yes, why?" Dusula also asked.
There was a flash of confusion in Cinderella's eyes, and it was obvious that he didn't know the reason either.
Chu Bainiao, the only one who knew the reason, agreed calmly, "It's really strange."
When they reached the dining room, the Duke and his new butler just walked in from the front door.
Through the open door, I could vaguely see hundreds of servants returning to various parts of the castle from outside.
"Miss Chu, please forgive me. Something happened in my castle and I am a little late." The Duke had a warm smile on his face.
If I didn't know he was a beast, I would have thought he was a human being.
Chu Bai Niao forced a smile and said, "It's okay."
After a peaceful breakfast, Anastasia and Dusula hurriedly pulled Chu Bainiu away, leaving Cinderella sitting there alone, at a loss.
Chu Bai Niao was about to call him, but the Duke said gently, "Miss Chu, please leave with the two young ladies first. I have something to ask my daughter."
Cinderella saw them walking away from the corner of her eye, and her eyes gradually became cold.
The Duke snorted coldly, as if he was suppressing his anger, "Cinderella! As my heir, you are such a failure!"
"You are the first master to be bullied by servants!"
"I've asked the new housekeeper to change your room. If there are still servants bullying you, beat them back! How can you be bullied by servants?"
"It's an insult to my reputation!"
The Duke saw that Cinderella was still sitting there huddled with her head down after he had finished his attack. He felt suffocated and cursed a few more times before leaving in a rage.
After the host finished his meal, the servants began to come out and clear the table.
If it were before, the servants would have asked Cinderella to do it together, but thinking of what the Duke had just said outside the castle, and the fact that the original butler was ruthlessly dismissed.
The servants lowered their heads and worked silently, not daring to call Cinderella again.
Cinderella stood up thoughtfully. So this is what Aunt Chu said, that she would change his room.
He then thought of something, his face changed, and he quickly ran towards Chu Bainiao's bedroom. Fortunately, the two women took her to the greenhouse in the castle.
He sneaked in like a thief and took out a piece of soft cloth from his pocket.
The way the cloth was twisted and distorted in his hands was enough to show how reluctant its owner was to let it go.
Cinderella sighed, folded the cloth, and put it back neatly and quietly.
He closed the cabinet door reluctantly, fearing that someone would see him walking out of Chu Bainiao's room.
So he chose to slip away from the windowsill and nimbly flipped to the lawn outside the castle.
On this side, Chu Bainiao was unaware of this. She was sitting on the swing in the greenhouse, her green skirt embroidered with gold swaying with the swing.
Cinderella hid in the corner and watched quietly for a while, then turned and left.
A few people were staying in the greenhouse reading books. Chu Bainiao suddenly thought of something and stuck a gold leaf bookmark into the book. He suggested, "Let's go shopping and buy some clothes and jewelry in the afternoon."
"Call Cinderella along."
Anastasia and Dusula were happy when they heard about going out shopping, until they heard Cinderella being brought along, and their happy faces quickly fell.
Anastasha closed the book, pouted her lips, came over aggrievedly, and sat on the other side of the swing, "Why did you ask Cinderella to come with you, Mommy? Can't the three of us go shopping together?"
Seeing that her eldest sister was hugging her mother clingingly, Dusula couldn't help but pick up a stool and sit closer.
Chu Bainiao let Anastasia hold her waist and stroke her hair with her hand.
"Be good, Cinderella is a poor girl. Let's take her shopping and pick out some clothes and jewelry for her."
"Anatasha, Dusula, have you forgotten what I taught you before? You must be kind, honest, and compassionate."
"Look at Cinderella, a good duke's daughter, but the duke ignored her and allowed her to be bullied by the servants. She was obviously a noble lady, but she lived in the worst and smallest servant's room."
"Isn't it pathetic that you have to clean up before you can eat?"
"Not even a decent dress."
Anastasha hugged her mother's soft waist without saying a word. Dusula lowered her eyebrows and said, "Okay, mother, then take Cinderella with you."
They just thought Cinderella was a bit annoying because she liked to act pitiful and tried to share her mother's love, but they didn't hate her that much.
Hearing that he was so pitiful, I felt a little shaken.
To be honest, they were not so attached to their mother before, but since the mudslide, perhaps because they were afraid of losing their mother again, they always wanted to be with her.
Anastasha said coquettishly, "But mother, can you please not marry the Duke? Can we go back to the manor and live together?"
Chu Bainiao pinched her small and delicate nose and asked, "Why?"
Anastasha rubbed her face aggrievedly, "Because Cinderella seems to be very good at vying for favor."
Under Chu Bainiao's astonished gaze, Dusula also spoke up: "Yes, Mommy always feels sorry for him and pays all her attention to him. Will Mommy like Cinderella after marrying the Duke? Will she be partial to him?"
"No." Chu Bainiao waved at Du Sula, and Du Sula happily threw herself into her arms.
Chu Bai Niao carefully explained the pros and cons to them, "I will marry the Duke because of the oppression of power. If I don't marry him and he holds a grudge against me, how can we continue to live?"
"Anatasha, just like when your father died and I lived with you, were we living well? There were always a lot of men coming to harass us."
"Beauty, wisdom and power, when you have all three, you are victorious. If you have two of the three, you can live a good life. If you only have beauty, it will be a disaster."
"Men will not let us go. If we want to live a good life, we must learn to use our brains and constantly strengthen ourselves. Only when you become stronger than men will they respect you, look up to you, and admire you."
