Chapter 42: Inviting the Girl to Coffee (2)
"That's pretty much it. Roque was a little relieved, and then asked, "Only you can feel who the Prayer Maiden is, so is there any way for me to see who the Prayer Maiden is?" ”
"Roque, you should be able to do it too, after all, you can break my seal, and if it's a prayer girl, you'll see a glowing mark on her forehead. Without any hesitation, the Duke answered Roque's question directly.
"In this case, things will be much easier, in addition to Fili and Wormwood, there are five suitable candidates in the manor, and I will go and tell the servant to make coffee now, duke." ”
Roque's words came to an abrupt halt, and his gaze looked at the Duke in shock.
Click, click.
The duke's big mouth was constantly overflowing with saliva, but fortunately the other party was closed at the moment, and Roque swore that if this guy opened his mouth, he would definitely fill a bucket of saliva.
"Gollum, Gollum. ”
After forcibly swallowing the saliva from his mouth, the Duke spoke.
"My saliva is about to overflow, you can rest assured that you want as much as you want. ”
"I'm not worried about that. Roque was so confused that he replied casually, and was about to leave, when suddenly a solemn look appeared on his face.
"What's the matter?" the Duke asked.
"I have two worries, the first is whether this prayer girl is likely to die, and the second is how to find her if she is not in the small town of Mireel, looking for a needle in a haystack. ”
"Uh-haha, uh-haha, you humans are really weird, I don't like that, since it's the person specified in the spell, then it won't die. Also, the birthplace of this spell is in the manor, so the prayer girl will not be far away, and fate has a strong binding power. ”
"It seems that I am unfounded. ”
"It's you who are so idiot. ”
After getting the duke's answer, Roque laughed at himself, not caring about the other party's ridicule, and now he could be completely relieved, he then picked up the empty cup on the table and handed it to the other party's big mouth.
"What are you going to do?"
"I'll get some saliva and go downstairs. ”
"Oooh. ”
Quack, quack, quack.
Roque, who walked downstairs with his cup, happened to run into Fili and Wormwood cleaning the hall, which saved him a lot of time.
"Master Roque. ”
"Lord Roque. ”
Seeing each other holding the cup, the two women stood respectfully, their dark eyes slightly curious.
"Don't be busy, go find Barbara, and tell her to call all the other little girls in the manor. Roque commanded softly.
"Yes, sir. ”
"Master Roque, let's go find Aunt Barbara. ”
After the two girls left, Roque went into the kitchen.
"Ah, sir, you, how did you get here? The maid, who was counting the ingredients, was startled by Roque.
"Dancy make me some coffee. The maid, who was in her early thirties, was okay-looking, with wheat-colored skin, and was crouching under the cupboard at this time, and Roque couldn't help but look at her.
"Okay, sir, wait a minute, I'll start cooking. ”
Fili and Wormwood were very efficient, or rather, Barbara was very efficient, and Roque waited in the hall for a few minutes before she brought the little girls over.
Fili and Wormwood stood behind Barbara, and the five little girls stood side by side in front of Roque, their heads bowed in unison, their hands unsure of where to go, nervous.
"Sir, I have brought all these little girls, do I need to do anything?" asked Barbara respectfully.
"I don't have to do anything, I'm going to treat these little girls to some coffee. Roque said with a smile.
"Drink, coffee, sir, you want to invite them to coffee?" Barbara was a little confused, and she suspected that she had misheard.
"Yes, Barbara bring them here. With that, Roque walked straight to the couch.
In the kitchen, the aroma of coffee slowly wafted out, and I have to say that Dancy is a very capable maid, and even Millair and Barbara often praise her.
Roque held the cup in both hands and didn't say anything, which made Barbara a on the side a little overwhelmed, she didn't understand why the other party invited these maids to coffee.
She was racking her brains to think, the expression on her face was cloudy, and at this moment Barbara wished that Milael was there, and the old man might be able to guess what Roque meant.
Fili and Wormwood sat obediently on one side, and the two girls were no longer so restrained in the face of Roque, especially Fili, in her heart, Roque was like a kind big brother.
Time is a weapon for making coffee, and coffee lovers never care about the waiting time, and crazy lovers will even spend an afternoon enjoying a cup of coffee.
It's like treating their beloved lover, this is their pursuit and belief, a part of life that is destined to be incomprehensible to some outsiders.
"Sir, I've kept you waiting. Dancy carefully brought a pot of hot coffee.
"Well, pour a glass for each of them. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
The five little girls were even more nervous at the moment, and only then did they believe that Roque really wanted to invite them to coffee, but why, did they do something wrong.
Dancy's time when she was pouring coffee was the most terrible torment for the five little girls, and they couldn't help but tremble.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, there's nothing to do with you here. ”
"Yes, sir, if you need to call me. ”
After Dancy left, Roque put down the cup, he picked up the sugar jar, adding sugar this kind of thing didn't need to trouble the other party anymore, he did it quickly.
"What is this, sir?" Barbara couldn't help but ask when she saw that Roque was pouring the sticky stuff in the cup.
The five little girls were so on pins and needles that they didn't even dare to lift their heads, but Fili and Wormwood were full of curiosity in their eyes.
"It's a gift from the Duke, a miraculous water that is said to make your skin smoother when you drink it. Roque explained as he fell, his face not blushing and his heart beating and telling lies.
When she saw that the other party didn't plan to pour this thing for her cup of coffee, Barbara was anxious.
"You want to drink it too?" Roque asked.
"Yes, sir, I want to drink a little too. Barbara nodded hurriedly.
"No problem, I hope it helps. ”
After doing these things, Roque stood up, and the moment he witnessed the miracle for the first time, he felt a little uncertain, and he needed the Duke to be there to ensure that he would not make a mistake.
"Wait a minute, I'll be back soon. ”
Hurried back to the study, the Duke was still asleep, and Roque walked over and patted its belly.
Bang bang bang.
"Wake up, wake up, it's time to get to work. ”
Seeing that the other party was indifferent, Roque had no choice but to take it away.
Photographed all the way from upstairs to downstairs, and the duke finally woke up.
"Found the prayer missing?"
"Not yet, they're getting ready for coffee. ”
"Then what are you carrying me down? ”
"You check me, I'm afraid I'll look away. ”
After Roque returned to the sofa, he directly threw the Duke aside, and then said, "Drink, coffee should be drunk while it is hot." ”
"Thank you Lord for your generosity. Barbara took the lead, and she couldn't wait, after all, it was filled with goodies that would make her skin smoother.
"Thank you, sir. ”
"Thank you, Master Roque. ”
Fili and Wormwood were grateful and slowly picked up their coffee.
At last it was the turn of the five little girls, who finally raised their heads, but did not dare to look at Roque.
"Don't be nervous, drink. Roque urged gently.
"Thank you, sir, for the gift. ”
After finally feeding the duke's saliva, the next thing is to see if there are any prayer girls among them.
Calm was the theme at this time, and Roque looked at everyone carefully, he didn't want to miss any critical moments, and for a moment, even Barbara felt restless, and she couldn't hold back.
"Roque, it's a pity that there is no prayer girl in this. ”
With the Duke's words in his mind, Roque's face was slightly disappointed, but he was quickly relieved.
"Looks like I'm going to have to get the little girl in town to have a coffee too. After making his decision, Roque took the cup.
"It's okay, just do what you have to do. ”
Confused, Barbara and the others could only watch numbly as Roque carried the Duke out of here, and until now, they had not figured out what it was.
However, a seed was planted in the hearts of these five little girls, and this seed is called gratitude.
"Lord Roque was so nice to treat us to coffee, it was the best gift we have ever received. ”
