"Now that you've got a maid under you, I should give you a present. You think a brooch isn't enough, don't you?"
Aria presented Annie and Jessie one more golden brooch, which she had kept so far.
"Oh, my God...! Thank you very much, miss!"
"I'm really fine..."
Then Annie, with two brooches on her chest, disappeared with a very triumphant step, saying, "I'm going to go round the mansion." Berry's eyes, which chased Annie's back, were filled with envy.
As Jessie lift T-Pot with a look of sorry, Aria slapped her hand on the back and warned her. "Jessie, this isn't what you're going to do. Sit opposite to me. It's Berry's share to pour the tea. I'm sure she'll be sad if you take her job away. Right, Berry?"
"Yes, yes. Miss."
Then T-Port came into Berry's hand, and Jessie sat opposite with an awkward smile. She might have done it hundreds more times, but somehow Berry's hand pouring the tea on the teacup was trembling slightly.
'Is it disgraceful to pour the tea to a new owner who is vulgar, or is it frustrating to pour the tea to Jessie, who was a maid like you?' Aria clicked her tongue and pointed out her behavior.
"Are you sick? What if you drop the tea pot while shaking like that, what are you going to do?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Miss."
"I hope you don't do anything you're sorry about in the first place."
It was pleasant and exciting to scold Berry as if she had recovered her true self.
"Have you ever learned to pour tea?"
"Yes, yes. Miss, I'll pour again..."
However, she could not pour the tea properly after being scolded severely. Berry's hand trembled again.
"Phew. I don't think you really can. I don't know why Mielle sent you. Okay, make another tea and bring it again. Try to change the refreshments too. I am sick of these things here."
Berry hurriedly bowed and left. As soon as she went out, Jessie looked nervous watching Aria who had a big smile.
'Oh, no. I can't show my mean look to Jessie.'
Only then did Aria give her an excuse. "I thought I knew what Mielle was thinking about sending Berry. Berry is not a newly hired maid, but she's been waiting on Mielle all the time. I'm sure it's not a good intention. So I have to teach her some manners."
Then Jessie nodded in acknowledgment, but her expression remained uncomfortable.
"Moreover, I'm sure it'll hurt if she despises you guys. Look at what she just did. As I know, she has done a good job so far, but isn't it quite awkward her present behavior? I can't help it, for the time being, so you have to understand."
This time, Jessie's expression was clearly loosened. When Aria told Annie the same story, who had gone around the mansion, she expressed her willingness to participate.
Aria was ready to thoroughly harass Berry, who had made the situation to bring out the evil nature of Aria, and who had falsely accused of her. Much to her gratitude, Berry spent considerable time preparing for the new refreshment, and the harassment began as soon as she returned.
"Oh, my God. I thought you went to grow tea leaves."
Annie expressed her discomfort in an exaggerated gesture. Jessie briefly agreed, saying, "Yes, I thought so too."
