Chapter 346 The Witch in the Dark Night 4
The rules clearly stated that she had to play the role of the third daughter of the nobility well, and she must not reveal her love of cleanliness, otherwise she would be mistaken for a witch.
[Characteristics of a witch: poor but clean]
Letting the monsters watch over her, she slept quietly on the small wooden bed for a while.
Nearing midnight, Lu Xichen woke up by himself.
I looked at the time on my watch. It was eleven forty-seven. I had no idea what the fairy mentioned in rule six looked like.
[6. At 12 o'clock midnight, a fairy will help you make a dress. Please put on the beautiful dress and go to the ball.]
When Lu Xichen recalled this rule, he felt it was a little familiar. Where had he seen it before?
After sitting on the bed and thinking for a while, Lu Xichen figured it out.
This is very similar to the story of Cinderella.
It was midnight, and the beautiful fairy that Lu Xichen was expecting did not come out. Instead, a white-haired old man appeared out of nowhere.
She was wearing an old but neat white cloth skirt. She looked very poor and her face looked ugly, like someone who had not had enough food for a long time.
When the old woman saw Lu Xichen, she smiled kindly, stretched out her hand and grabbed the air, and a piece of cloth emitting a light purple glow appeared in her hand.
Then, the old woman cut the cloth with scissors seemingly casually, and an exquisite skirt appeared in her hands.
She handed the skirt to Lu Xichen with a smile, and Lu Xichen hesitated for a moment before taking it.
This dress is so exquisite. You will definitely become the focus of the party when you wear it.
Lu Xishen looked down at her skirt, then looked up at the kind old woman.
"Mother-in-law, are you sure you want me to wear this dress?"
Her intuition told her that this old woman must be a good person and came here to help her, or to help Karen.
When the old woman heard this, she nodded and shook her head, and finally took the skirt from Lu Xichen's hand back and cut it again.
A few minutes later, the dress was transformed.
Lu Xishen looked at the altered skirt again. He didn't know what the old woman had done, but the color of the skirt had changed to lavender. From a distance, it looked like old clothes that had been washed.
The attractive glow also disappeared.
As if to make the skirt look more "worn out", there are two very small patches on it.
Lu Xichen pulled the corner of his mouth speechlessly.
Today's skirts are indeed less ostentatious, but even though they are so torn, they still attract a lot of attention. She will still be the focus when she goes to a dance party.
What if the prince has a domineering personality and thinks she is special, then she would be violating the rules.
[Don't look the prince in the eye, don't get his favor]
After thinking about it, Lu Xishen carefully put forward his opinion again.
"Can you be less beautiful and less shabby? Just more ordinary?"
Lu Xichen was very worried that her repeated dissatisfaction would anger the old woman. After all, it was the old woman who had always made clothes for her.
After hearing Lu Xishen's request, the old woman showed a hint of confusion on her face, but she was not angry.
She took the skirt back again, and noticed from the corner of her eye that the skirt Lu Xishen got from the tailor was a golden skirt.
After thinking it over carefully, the old woman changed her skirt again.
Among the nobles, golden skirts are the most common, as they particularly like this color.
A single gold dress stands out, but when there are a bunch of gold dresses together, the color is nothing special.
So the old woman decided on the color of the skirt this time, and added some plain dark patterns to the skirt to remove the shine.
In this way, an ordinary skirt is ready.
The old woman nervously handed the skirt to Lu Xichen, full of anticipation.
Lu Xichen was very satisfied with the dress. She probably wouldn't be able to attract the prince in this.
And the dress she picked from the tailor was also gold, and her two sisters, including Renee, didn't pay attention to what kind of dress she picked up.
So no one would notice if she changed into the dress the fairy made for her.
After everything was done, Renee came knocking on the door.
"Miss Karen, the time for the dance is about to come. We have to go out now. Are you ready?"
"I'll be there soon. I'm changing clothes." Lu Xishen responded quickly.
The old woman nodded to Lu Xichen, slowly became transparent, and finally disappeared in front of Lu Xichen.
It is now ten past twelve. After changing his clothes, Lu Xichen immediately pushed the door and followed Leni to the carriage.
Caroline and Laceel had been waiting in the carriage for a long time. When they saw Lu Xichen just coming up, Caroline immediately looked unhappy and sarcastic.
"I really don't know why some people are so arrogant. Do they think they are the earl's only daughter?"
Lu Xishen paused as she was about to sit down, thought for a moment, and suddenly threw herself into Caroline's arms.
"Woo woo woo, Sister Caroline, you are so right. I was really too much in the past, relying on my status to be arrogant and unreasonable.
Fortunately, I have the guidance of my two elder sisters now. I have changed a lot. I am really grateful to them. "
Lu Xichen's reaction was completely different from what Caroline expected. She was unable to react for a moment and her brain went blank.
She even said "Huh?" in confusion.
Lacee reacted quickly, came to her senses, and gently pulled Caroline's arm to help her come back to her senses.
"Karen, you get up first." Laceer reached out to pull Lu Xichen, but Lu Xichen dodged her.
At this moment, Lu Xishen was sitting on the ground with his head resting on Caroline's knees, not caring at all whether his skirt would get dirty.
"Sister Lacey, I really want to hear you talk to me. Can you please talk to me more?"
Lu Xichen smiled at the two of them in a naive manner.
Her action confused the two of them. They looked at each other, and finally it was Lacie who spoke.
"Kaylin, sit up first. You don't have to do this if you want to listen to us."
Lacey reached out to help Lu Xishen.
Lu Xishen lowered his head, then stood up slowly and obediently and respectfully, a smile of triumph flashing in his eyes.
These two sisters are not vicious characters. Lu Xichen deduced this from the second half of the seventh rule.
[Please remember, even though your sisters are mean to you, they will still protect you as long as you are in the manor]
In addition, the favorability of these two sisters towards her is not negative, and one of the sisters even has a favorability of 3 at the beginning.
All signs indicate that these two sisters are not vicious female supporting roles.
Lu Xichen guessed that if she treated her sisters badly, their attitude towards her would also be bad, and vice versa.
He sat down next to Lacee in a friendly manner, which made Lacee feel a little embarrassed and she moved towards Caroline's seat.
But her actions were completely useless. Lu Xichen chased after her and continued to stick to Laixier.
Laxie's ears turned red unconsciously, and she tried to say something harsh, "If you come this close to me again, I'll hit you!"
Lu Xichen replied with a playful smile: "Sister Lai Xi'er hit me for my own good~"
Don't hit a smiling person. Lu Xichen's every move made Lacier at a loss.
