"Ah?" Evelyn didn't expect to meet Jane. She was surprised and then said with a dry smile, "Oh, I came down to pour a glass of water."
After that, she really had a guilty conscience, so she added, "I'm a little thirsty."
"Oh, wait for me. I'll pour it for you right away."
"No." Evelyn kept waving her hand, "Jane, do your own work. Don't care about me. I'll pour it by myself."
"That's what I should do. Wait a moment."
"There's really no need. Jane, you're very busy today."
"I'm not busy." Jane said with a smile, "Actually, there's nothing I can do. Besides, even if I'm busy today, I would be delighted, because this is a happy event."
"That's right."
"What kind of game is Young Master playing?" Jane handed a cup of tea to Evelyn and said, "I wanted to go up and have a look, but I felt that it was inappropriate for me to do that. However, your games sound very funny."
Hearing this, Evelyn didn't know what to say for a moment.
Although Jane was just a servant, she had met her a few times. She was a very good nanny.
She knew that bantering the newlyweds on wedding night was a game for young people. Generally, older people would not attend it. Although she felt distressed for Jane after hearing what she said, she could not say anything. After all, she was just Elizabeth's friend, and she was a guest here.
"In fact, it's not very funny. They do everything they could think of to make things difficult for Elizabeth and her husband." She thought for a moment and said again, "It's too noisy, and their voices are very loud. Actually, I came down to drink water because I couldn't stand the noise."
As soon as she said this, her heart began to protest and said that she was lying.
But even so, she pretended that she didn't like to play games and wanted to stay in a quite environment.
"That's right." Jane nodded, "It's quiet downstairs. I'm just a little worried about Young Madam. She can't be too tired now. She's been busy all day today. I'm afraid that she would not feel well."
"Jane, you're so kind." Evelyn said, "Don't worry. James is by her side and nothing bad will happen to her. Besides, she's in a much better condition now."
"That's true."
"Ha-ha..." Evelyn sat there in a dilemma.
Benjamin asked her to pour water for him, but she told Jane that she didn't like to play games. Should she... go up or not? It was really a difficult problem.
Originally, she planned to go upstairs when Jane went to do her work. However, Jane engaged in a small talk with her...
Upstairs, Richard covered James's eyes with a towel. James couldn't walk conveniently in this case, so Richard took him to the girls.
At the beginning, someone said that he had watched other people play such games, and many people asked the bride to stand at the end of the row. Some bridegrooms went directly to the last one, and that was very boring.
Therefore, Richard had said that he wouldn't ask Elizabeth to be the last one.
"James." Richard let go of James's hand, "I've brought you here. If you go one step further, you may find Elizabeth. I can't take you to walk with me anymore. Otherwise, they will say that I help you, and I will be wronged."
"So, James, find Elizabeth with your own ability."
James stood there and snorted coldly, "You talk too much nonsense!" He had remembered what Richard had done. One day, he would tease him in the same way!
