Chapter 935： Noble rules
Originally during a good lunch break, Yang Cheng was entangled by Luo Yue to tell all kinds of weird curse stories, which made Yang Cheng dumbfounded. I didn’t expect Luo Yue, who is a quiet lady on weekdays, to like such strange things. It seems that everyone Have an adventure dream.
After a nap, Yang Cheng simply invited Klin, the butler, and took Luo Yue for a walk outside. It was really the quaint interior of Highclere Castle. There was no wireless network. In the winter, the bedroom still relied on the oldest fireplace for heating. The most modern place in this castle turned out to be the kitchen, with ovens, refrigerators, and cold storage. If you want to transform it into a hotel, the amount of work is not small.
Yang Cheng and Luo Yue walked hand in hand on the green lawn. The blue sky was within reach, and a red and blue two-color flag fluttered all year round in the sky above Highclere Castle, which was the emblem of the coat of arms of the Earl of Carnarvon.
Klin talked about the history of the earl family. Since 1697 , the land where the castle is located has been the fief of the Canaver family.
There have been many celebrities in the Canaver family in history: the fourth-generation earl served as minister of the Baoshou party for three times; a cousin of the fifth-generation earl has only one leg, and was able to fly a fighter jet to the front line during World War I; Of course, the most famous is the fifth generation Earl himself.
Passed down to the present eighth Earl of Carnarvon and the current owner of the castle, George Herbert Carnarvon, he and the current countess Fiona have a son. It is worth mentioning that the queen is actually the godmother of the current earl. It was the first time that Yang Cheng heard about it. No wonder William had such a good relationship with the Canaver family. He also proposed to use the Hikolier Castle as a reception place for the royal family. This is really difficult to do without any relatives.
Walking on a hundred-year-old masonry road, the deep aristocratic charm comes from the soles of the feet. The servants who meet on the road are still wearing Victorian uniforms. Of course, the clothes and materials are new, but the style is still in the past. The style and the aristocratic heritage revealed in various details are unmatched by Beihai Manor.
If everything lives according to the rules of the past, Yang Cheng may have to die if he can't stay in Beihai Manor for a few days.
Highclere Castle still maintains the aristocratic tradition of the last century, including three meals a day, which are no different from the past. According to Klin, this is the eighth generation. The family members are not prosperous, otherwise they would be early It can't hold on anymore. In order to maintain the rules, it will cost a lot of money.
For example, for breakfast, according to the old rules, only married women in the family are allowed to dine in *, because people usually think that she no longer has to socialize in search of good couples. Nowadays, breakfast at Hikerlier Castle is usually buffet style. Including fish egg risotto, toast and smoked herring, this is similar to the North Sea Manor, after all, Carson is also a traditional English housekeeper.
But in order to give the owner more choices, the kitchen usually prepares more types of dishes, but the elderly earl couple can’t eat too much, so a lot of waste is caused every day. Countess Fiona deliberately makes a change. However, due to the face of the family, it was never mentioned, so I had to try to maintain it.
Compared to lunch, afternoon tea is the most British feature. Because traditional English dinner usually starts at 20:30 to 21:00, people often feel empty in the evening, so afternoon tea is available. Birth is a small snack before dinner.
Afternoon tea usually includes: boundless sandwiches, scones and some French desserts. At this time, you usually don’t use knives and forks, and you usually use your hands. Depending on your personal wishes, you can also have some jam and curd cream.
The trouble is here. Usually in the afternoon tea, ladies wear tea party women’s clothes. This is a low-waisted dress. For dinner, you should wear a full-length dress. Men should wear black or white shoes to set off the brilliance of women. Tea is the time for ladies to perform.
An authentic aristocratic family banquet usually lasts two hours. Before the banquet, ladies and gentlemen and old ladies have to change their clothes. Men wear dinner dresses, while ladies are more complicated. If guests are present, the personal maid must record each time the hostess is present. Wearing dresses so as not to repeat, in terms of accessories, only married women can wear crown ornaments, which are generally gifts at the time of marriage.
In addition to helping the master upstairs to change clothes, another important duty of the housekeeper is to set up the table. All kinds of bone china tableware, crystal cups, silver knives and forks are naturally the best.
The housekeeper will also hold a wooden ruler to measure the placement of various tableware. According to noble etiquette, there are requirements for the use of table decorations on different occasions. The length of candles, the folding of napkins, the number of flowers, and the brightness of the lights must be strictly regulated, such as The size of napkins is 17 to 20 inches for lunch, 12 inches for afternoon tea, 26 inches for dinner, and 6 to 9 inches for cocktail parties. If the table is placed incorrectly, it will not only reduce the aesthetics of the banquet, but even cause the etiquette The lack of humiliation to the owner.
This is not enough. At the Highclere Fort banquet, Klin wears white gloves to prevent fingerprints from staining the glass;
A small piece of butter should be made into a twisted C-shape (representing the initials of the Kannavan surname) and a crown shape, and then placed in front of the guests;
In short, every detail must be able to show the superior style in order to preserve the noble face.
Yang Cheng received similar education since she was a child, and Carson explained carefully afterwards. She was fairly familiar with these complicated etiquettes, but Luo Yue was confused. Although she had also received so-called lady etiquette training, This is the first time I have heard of such a detailed aristocratic lifestyle, and I can't help but frown, worrying that something wrong with the afternoon tea will humiliate Yang Cheng.
It was Klin’s words that eased Luo Yue’s nervousness. “Miss Luo doesn’t have to worry. In recent years, the castle has received all kinds of people, from the dukes and couples, the celebrities, and the ordinary tourists. Comfort is the second thing to pay attention to these rules. Of course, if there are no guests present, the master and wife will live in the most traditional way."
Yang Cheng understands this. If the guests who came to the Hakolier Castle were ridiculed for not knowing noble etiquette, who would dare to visit here in the future? How can the castle make money? From this point, Yang Cheng found that Earl Carnarvon was not so rigid and knew how to work around. In this way, he was more likely to persuade the Earl to open the basement.
simply walked around on the lawn for a while, and under Klin’s reminder, the two were ready to go back to the room to change clothes and change their costumes for the afternoon tea party.
The afternoon tea party was held in the study room on the third floor. It was also the place where the Earl and his wife usually enjoyed the afternoon tea time. This was also a kind of closeness.
Yang Cheng took off his dress and changed into a casual suit without a tie or bow tie. Luo Yue also put on a light plain dress, stepping on high heels to hold Yang Cheng’s arm, and the young couple looked relaxed and rigorous. Dressed back to the study, he found that the William and his wife had arrived early, but the earl and his wife as the host had not yet come.
Klin expressed his apology on his behalf, “I’m sorry to have Mr. Yang, my lord and wife are personally supervising the preparations for the dinner, so I’m not able to wait in advance. Please forgive me.
William waved his hand, "You're welcome Klin, we are old friends, don't worry about this little thing."
Klin smiled and bowed, expressing gratitude, and then said, "According to the master's arrangement, after a short afternoon tea, if several distinguished guests are interested, they can have a horse-riding hunting competition."
Yang Cheng was a little surprised, and William carefully clarified, "Don’t be surprised Jason, the Carnarvon family still keeps the habit of hunting, especially during Christmas and New Year, when relatives and friends gather here, the manor has to organize several times for everyone. For recreational activities, horse hunting is undoubtedly the most popular item. Female families who are not good at riding can enjoy the equestrian show. When it gets dark, everyone still likes to walk in the forest and garden of the manor. This was the most desirable thing for the British a hundred years ago. life."
Suddenly, Yang Cheng shook his head, "I won't participate anymore. One is that I don't have the equipment for riding and hunting, and the other is ~~~"
Halfway through the conversation, he pointed at William to his left arm and signaled that he was injured. William patted his forehead, but he had forgotten this, so he took the initiative to relieve Yang Orange, "Klin, cancel the hunt, just because I am It’s not very comfortable today."
Klin looked at Yang Cheng's arm thoughtfully and didn't persuade him anymore. William's words were similar to the orders.
After a long while, the Earl and his wife walked into the study together. They apologized for the first time and invited everyone to sit down. Klin directed the servants to quickly deliver refreshments, then stepped aside to start the afternoon tea time.
The protagonist of the afternoon tea is usually a lady. As the hostess, Fiona sipped her lipstick tea, provoked the topic, and said with excitement, “The two most important family banquets in Highclere Castle in a year are Christmas banquets. And the "Burns Night" (Burns Night, 1 月25 day) dinner to commemorate the Scottish national hero and poet Robert Burns.
Every Christmas, we will decorate the entire manor with special decoration. This year, the manor will add many Christmas trees and garlands on both sides of the main driveway, and decorate them with small lights. After nightfall, a little fluorescent flashes in the manor, creating a romantic and beautiful I feel that I am very much looking forward to the coming of Christmas this year. Hecollier Castle welcomes everyone to come and spend a wonderful Christmas night together. "
Kate said helplessly, "It sounds great, but Fiona, you know that every Christmas, we have to go back to Windsor Castle, or spend it at Buckingham Palace, then I will be busy with my feet, maybe'Peng Si Zhi Ye'We can join in the fun, what do you think dear?"
She was asking for William’s opinion. In front of outsiders, William’s wife and madman set up a stable, naturally no opinion. “Of course, I think there must be many good friends here. We should not miss it, Jason, you and Do you want lorry to come together?"
