I was a god in the 18th century
Chapter 123 Butler
James lamented to his sister Connie more than once: "No wonder the servants in this castle look so round. It turns out that what they eat is all divine food. I don't even want to leave here."
But of course it was impossible not to leave.
He had hunted several times on the mountain behind the villa. His youthful hunting addiction was over, and it was almost time to go back to Cambridge University.
In addition to the invisible gods in the castle, there is another person here who James thinks is a "god", and that is the young Gauss.
This kid's calculation speed and mathematical proficiency are even worse than James who studied at Cambridge University!
He is still so young. If this is not God, who is God?
If Xia Qingdai could hear James's voice, she would definitely agree.
No, after putting away the food, Xia Qingdai transformed into a villain and entered the castle to learn mathematics from the "god" of mathematics.
It was only when James arrived at Fukui Villa that he found out that the miracle doctor with excellent medical skills was still studying mathematics, physics and chemistry every day.
Currently, universities around the world do not accept female students, and the same goes for universities in the UK.
There is no use for girls to learn mathematics, physics and chemistry. Among the gentry class, girls are mostly educated by tutors. For example, James's sister Connie studied with tutors.
Moreover, girls study etiquette, language, music, painting, dance, etc. It is very unusual for Xia Qingdai to study mathematics, physics and chemistry so enthusiastically.
But except for the James brother and sister who felt strange, the other guests in the castle were very used to it.
Owen, Gauss and Martin, who taught Xia Qingdai, were even more accustomed to it. If Xia Qingdai suddenly stopped studying one day, they wouldn't be used to it yet!
All smart people know that in this castle, the person most favored by God is not the owner Owen, but the owner's cousin Xia Qingdai!
So it's not strange for her to do anything. Those who are favored are always confident.
After taking the private lessons, Xia Qingdai and Owen played the piano together for a while to relax.
Perhaps because of the evolution of her body, Xia Qingdai's reaction ability has been enhanced as never before, including the flexibility of her fingers, so her progress in learning the piano is also amazing.
Although she doesn't practice often, she just plays casually after learning every day. But because of his strong memory and quick reaction, his piano skills are constantly improving.
From the beginning, I only remembered Little Stars, but now I can play many Mozart tunes.
Blind playing practice without looking at the keys and music scores was not difficult at all for Xia Qingdai, and she got started almost as soon as she came into contact with it.
After Connie, a sixteen-year-old girl, was born in the castle, Owen also asked someone to introduce a tutor, the daughter of a pastor, named Mei Lan.
When she was teaching Connie, Xia Qingdai would occasionally attend classes.
The tutor Mei Lan soon discovered that the servants in the castle did not treat Xia Qingdai as a guest, but as cautiously as a hostess.
If the atmosphere between Owen and Xia Qingdai hadn't been so ambiguous, she would have thought that the two of them had made a lifelong commitment.
Teacher Meilan naturally didn't say anything to Xia Qingdai, who had the power of "hostess", and taught her more attentively.
Xia Qingdai also took the time to learn some basic skills for ladies in the 18th century, including etiquette, music and painting.
On this day, shortly after breakfast, another young man with a beard came to the castle. "Who is he?" Xia Qingdai asked Owen.
"My former soldier," Owen whispered back, "an Irish white man."
After saying that, he stood up and went up to meet the bearded man. He took the bearded man, Lim, the housekeeper of the original manor, and two valets to the study, and announced to them the identity of the bearded man - the new one. Butler.
This appointment made Paul very dissatisfied and filled with jealousy.
During this time, Irving recruited clerks and assistants to assist him in his work as the Sheriff, but he had not yet made a decision about the butler, which made Paul think he had a good chance.
After all, the current housekeeper was promoted from a personal maid. As the first valet to follow Mr. Owen, he should be the first choice for the butler.
But now a butler has landed, and he has no experience in managing servants before. Can he manage the servants in the castle well?
But obviously Paul's worries were unnecessary. This bearded young man, Mr. David Thain, once managed Owen's soldiers. He was able to cooperate with Owen in a tacit understanding during the war, managed servants with a clear assessment system, and also What's the difficulty?
And regarding the responsibilities of a housekeeper, he already knew it well before coming to Fucui Villa.
He was discharged from the army with Owen, and when he left America, he made an agreement with Owen to work for him, but he didn't expect to receive a letter asking him to directly take up the position of housekeeper.
In the past few months, he went back to visit his family and learn some things about servants.
On the first day he arrived at the castle, David was sensitive to Paul's rejection and dissatisfaction.
But after glancing at young Paul, David twitched the corner of his mouth slightly and didn't take it to heart at all.
He was just a stupid young man with no sense of authority, and his eyes revealed almost all of his emotions.
He wondered why his commander could tolerate such an idiot as his valet?
A person like this is just strong on the outside but hard on the inside. If you are a little tougher on him, he will be frightened and soften. It is the nature of this kind of person to act according to the circumstances, and he will soon understand who is the boss in the world of servants in this castle.
Owen is obviously very happy about the arrival of David. This is his true direct descendant. He has no worries about David's ability at all.
Xia Qingdai is a bit blind to foreigners, but David's features are particularly obvious. He is as tall as Irving and even burlier than Irving.
Owen still has the milky air and natural thinness of a young man, while David exudes the aura of a young man, so he looks particularly burly.
Moreover, David also has a distinctive beard on his face, which is absolutely unmistakable from others.
In fact, for the servants in the castle, Xia Qingdai has been very satisfied with everyone's work efficiency since the KPI assessment system was introduced. Therefore, it didn't matter to her whether the butler came or not.
But soon, Xia Qingdai also felt that with the addition of David, the spiritual outlook of the servants in the castle actually improved to another level, especially the male servants!
The next morning, she even saw the male servants being pulled outside the castle for military drills!
Compared with Irving, who looks relatively boyish, David is really like a soldier. Not only does he act vigorously and resolutely, but he is also good at fighting.
Xia Qingdai was lying in the sky above the castle, overlooking the Lilliput servants training in the morning light, and suddenly she felt like she could dominate the world.
Can we recruit another group of private soldiers? After all, there will be a world war in the future!
