Stop getting too involved in the affairs of the Rebel Alliance—this was the reminder left by the head of the Blois family to the old butler when he left Beauxbatons.
As the housekeeper of the Blois family for many years, the latter can certainly understand what the other party means.
In the final analysis, all the actions of the Blois family today are actually based only on their friendship with Maca. If it was just to repay their kindness, they naturally did not have to get involved in the affairs of the Resistance Alliance... especially since the Blois family had already done enough for this disaster.
Therefore, after the family head went to the front line and received the news of Denmark being invaded for the first time, the old butler's advice to the family council was to "preserve its own interests."
But of course, under the premise of being dedicated to the family, he still did not forget to bring the British wizards from the refuge community with him.
After all, those are the people who Maka McClain personally told to protect - no matter what the current situation is or what the future holds, the Blois family will never stand against Maka.
Mr. Blois and the old housekeeper have always been very clear-headed. Maca McClain is a person who must not become an enemy.
However, Beauxbatons and Madame Maxime didn't matter. To be honest, the Blois family had never particularly cared about this magic school.
Seeing the wizard sent by Maxim to invite him, the old housekeeper frowned slightly, then stood up and stood between him and Willy, and raised his hand slightly. road:
"Please come back! Whether the Brandt family comes or not has nothing to do with me, and it has nothing to do with Miss."
"Oh! Mr. Butler, I... I didn't mean that."
The wizard sent by Madame Maxime was naturally someone seconded from the French Ministry of Magic - again, Beauxbatons is a school, and besides the students, they are also professors. As for Maxim, one of the founders of the Resistance Alliance, even if he wanted to employ people, he couldn't choose them from the school, right
However, most of the staff of the French Ministry of Magic are actually students who graduated from Beauxbatons. Now working for Madame Maxime actually gives them a certain sense of belonging.
Now the wizard was sent by Maxim to invite the old butler, and he was obviously very active. Seeing that the old butler did not agree, he naturally began to think about how to invite people.
Yes, even if it was just for a moment, he did have an idea for Weili just now... Oh, that's it, he just wanted to find a breakthrough from Weili to make the old housekeeper agree.
However, for the old housekeeper, everything related to Willie will become more sensitive. If someone tried to take advantage of the simple-minded Willy, he would definitely not agree to it.
Even if it's just something innocuous.
"No need to say any more," the old housekeeper slowly shook his head at the other party and said, "Go and tell Madam! The ability that Madam and I can stay here is already the limit. We will not fight for the Resistance Alliance, To do more for Beauxbatons—at least for now."
Yes, I have to admit that just being able to live here with the old housekeeper and Willie is actually a big help to Madam Maxime and Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Even though... the reason why Willy chose to stay here was just because of Maka's words, and it had nothing to do with the attitude of the Blois family.
"Okay! Mr. Butler, I understand... I will convey your words to Madam."
The wizard was obviously very disappointed when he failed to invite the old housekeeper, because whether the old housekeeper went or not would definitely play an important role in Mrs. Maxim's meeting later. From Maxim's point of view, the Brandt family's surrender is definitely an opportunity worth seizing.
After all, she still hopes to accumulate more strength before danger really comes to her, so that she can better protect all the teachers and students of Beauxbatons.
That's right, just like when Maka predicted the spread of the disaster in advance and used various methods to preserve the foundation of the entire Hogwarts.
It's a pity that she obviously doesn't have Maka's strength and foresight, so just raising support is all she can do. But now, the Blois family seems unwilling to have too much interaction with her.
Not long after, the subordinate who came back from the old housekeeper could only say frankly to Maxim at the corner of the corridor near the side hall:
"Madam, Butler Blois did not agree. He said that currently he and Miss Blois are living in Beauxbatons, which is all they can do. They will not do more for us than this. Things. And everything has to wait until the head of the Blois family comes back."
"'Currently'...?"
Fortunately, the old butler didn't tell the truth completely. This finally made Maxim feel helpless and secretly relieved.
"I understand, you go do the work!" She nodded slightly towards the other party, then turned to look at the door of the side hall on the other side of the corridor, and cheered up again, "I should do what I should do. Things done.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Maxim walked straight over there with elegant steps.
…
"What did that person do just now?"
After Maxim's people left the garden, about a few minutes later, Willie, who had finished cultivating the valerian in the flower bed, clapped her hands and stood up.
Although she didn't listen carefully to what the old housekeeper and the others were saying at the time, she obviously noticed someone coming. After taking care of those precious plants, I saw her moving her legs, which were a little sore from squatting for too long, and asked casually.
"That's Mrs. Maxim's. Someone from the Brandt family in Germany is here. Madam wants to invite me to come over and meet with her." The old housekeeper said truthfully, "But, Miss, you also know that the head of the family doesn't want us to make plans." The Lowa family is too involved in the affairs of that alliance."
"Well," Willie blinked, "Resistance Alliance? Remember... it was founded by Hermione, right? I think I can participate."
But just as she was speaking, she shook her head again.
"But forget it about the Brandt family. I don't like people from that family."
"Uh, yes!" The old housekeeper nodded immediately and agreed, "The Brandt family has always had a bad reputation, and their relationship with our Blois family is not good. This time they are just in trouble. I just remembered that we came to see Madame Maxime, there is no need for us to come forward and take the trouble ourselves."
"Trouble? What trouble?"
However, when Willy heard this, she couldn't help but turned around and asked with interest.
