Silently watched him skillfully select vegetables and fruits in the market.

Dumbfounded, he watched as he bargained with the owner at a seafood shop for three fresh baby cod and five live shrimp.

Dumbfounded, he used the remaining 10 pence to buy chicken breasts and cured ham.

......

Wandered around the discount area of the bazaar and returned to their small two-story building.

Since Bert hadn't bought the carriage yet, Chris became their butler for the time being, after all, the coachman or something was just a good excuse.

Knowing roughly the background of Bert's family, Chris is very speechless, or is it just the money from selling the last utensils and furniture in the family, is this still a miserable family that fell into the aristocracy and went bankrupt?

No wonder the brother and sister are not in a hurry, plus the last family property in the bank, those precious antiques, these assets are enough for them to sit on the mountain for several years better than the civilian life.

However, Chris is not willing to let them squander like this, after all, they have no income, and it is difficult to say whether they will be able to support themselves in the future, and they may need money urgently one day.

For today's dinner, Chris wasted a lot of effort.

Ever since he swallowed that mysterious rock two weeks ago, Chris has actually been worried about his body, for fear of burping one day. But fortunately, in addition to increasing memory and strong comprehension, there are no bad side effects.

But thanks to his strong memory, Chris recalls the food shows and documentaries he watched in his previous life. In addition, those different kinds of special dishes that I ate in my previous life can also be roughly pieced together with a strong understanding ability.

Therefore, Bonnie and Bert, who are a little quiet today, witnessed a table of Chris's dishes.

On the table, Chris used the cod he bought, and made a dish of grilled fish with all the color and flavor:

Fry until golden brown, then stir-fry the ginger slices, stir-fry in the chili sauce until fragrant, and stir-fry the cod. Then pour in the broth, add an appropriate amount of sugar, cover the pot and simmer, then add the chopped onion, carrot, green pepper and stir-fry. Finally, add salt to taste, stir-fry for a while.

The rest is sweet and sour tenderloin, cumin ham and diced potatoes, braised shrimp with garlic oil, red lion's head, and vegetable cream soup.

Bert and Bonnie, who had obviously eaten too much, were a little embarrassed, especially Bonnie, whose face was red.

Of course, this is the first time Chris has eaten such a lavish dinner in this world.

Hey, it would be nice if Cole was still there, Chris couldn't help but think of his adoptive father who had never eaten anything good in his life.

Ah, how come I haven't eaten such a delicious dish before!

The two brothers and sisters remembered the best court dishes they had ever eaten, and the dishes invented by the versatile Arnold the Great were comparable to those eaten today. I didn't expect Chris to have such a high talent in cooking.

Originally, as aristocrats, they thought that Chris, who was born in poverty, could not make anything delicious. But they couldn't cook, so they had to let Chris become the cook of the family for the time being, and thought that when they had time, they would hire a cook in the workers' federation association, but they didn't expect it......

The idea of hiring a cook disappeared within a few days.

Poor a certain cook, and another considerable income is missing.

In addition to bringing their own clothes and knick-knacks from the sold mansion, Bert and Bonnie also brought a few rare books from their collection, which were placed on the shelves of the small study on the second floor along with a few books that Chris had borrowed from the library.

Chris returned the two books he borrowed a few days ago, and borrowed a few books on financial management by the way, after all, no matter how much Bert's family property is, he can't stand to sit on it like this.

With Bert's permission, Chris opened the books they had brought.

Most of the books are by Burt and are related to music, fine arts. Chris flipped through it and left it there, it didn't work for him after all.

The few remaining books are from Bonnie's collection of books related to the occult.

One of the books, "Gregory's Travels", contains a lot of supernatural things, as well as ghost legends from all over the world.

Thinking of the weirdness of this world, Chris looked at it emphatically.

Bonnie didn't expect Chris to be interested in this too, and she has been pestering him for the past few days to tell him the mythical ghost stories she has collected over the years.

Yes, this is a little girl who loves supernatural events and all kinds of mysteries.

Compared to Bonnie's bizarre interest, Bert seemed much more normal.

That evening, after eating Chris's dinner early, Bert had gone upstairs to his bedroom, only Chris and Bonnie were sitting on the sofa in the hall on the first floor, the sofa had been replaced with new cushions, and the style and pattern were chosen by Bonnie in spite of the other two, pink and cute.

"Huh!" Chris exclaimed in surprise as he flipped through the book of "Gregory's Travels" that he had already read.

"What's wrong?" said Bonnie, who was sitting on the pink couch next to her, as she looked over as she ate the strawberry cookies with satisfaction in her eyes.

"Bonnie, don't eat it, that's your snack tomorrow...... Forget it, come over here, you can see if there is something wrong here. ”

As he spoke, Chris pointed to the cover of "Gregory's Travels", which was unusually thick.

This has bothered Chris since this afternoon, and he always feels like there's something inside......

Just now, through the bright light on the roof, he really saw a shadow much smaller than the cover of the book, and there seemed to be a thick bookmark inside.

Bonnie picked up "Gregory's Travels" and looked up at it through the light.

"There's really something, why didn't I find it before? Quick, let's take it apart and see, maybe there's some mysterious letter in it." ”

So Chris got up and went to the kitchen, got a brand new pair of scissors, and handed it to Bonnie.

"Come on, I'm afraid that if I get it, there will be nothing. Bonnie blushed and said that she was quite confident in her ability to destroy hands since she was a child.

Chris took the book and prepared to cut the cover of the book as Bonnie looked at her expectantly......

"Wait, such a mysterious and exciting moment, you should call Bert to watch it together. With that, Bonnie ran to the second floor in a hurry and called Bert, who was already dressed in comfortable sky blue pajamas.

Their flannel pajamas were chosen by Bonnie, and their underwear was velvet.

Bert's is a sky-blue pajama embroidered with a cross pattern, and Chris's is a brown-yellow pajama embroidered with a mechanical clock pattern. As for Bonnie's own, it's pink pajamas with cute cow motifs.

In what is now the Republic of Ireland, flannel is an optional underwear fabric, which is not only the cheapest wool material, but also has a soft texture, mostly braided into a net, and has a natural thermal insulation effect.

But while flannel is very good for waist protection, it has been found to cause itching of tight skin.

Velvet is also an option for people to make clothes as a cotton fabric that is easy to wear, and it is cheaper than flannel.

However, due to its poor elasticity, underwear made of raw materials will have a strong sense of restraint and will restrict people's movements.

Similarly, wool can cause itchy skin, most commonly at the neckline and cuffs.

Later, it was discovered that sewing a wide piece of cotton cloth on the inside of the fabric in these two parts would solve the problem.

The same method can also be used on wool underwear, which is now the best solution to ensure elasticity. It not only guarantees the absolute freedom of movement of the user, but also does not need to wear layers of excess fabric on the body.

Therefore, in terms of price, wool underwear is also more expensive than flannel and velvet underwear.

They opt for flannel pajamas and velvet underwear, which are also the most affordable pairings that keep you warm without getting flannel itching.

So, with an excited look in anticipation, an absent-minded and somewhat sleepy look, Chris carefully scratched the front cover of "Gregory's Travels".

I saw a relatively hard sticky note fall off and fall on the wooden floor.

"I'll go, there's really something!"

Chris muttered to himself.

"And the back, Chris, should be too. Bonnie picked up the note from the ground and reminded excitedly.
