Chapter 50: Open Struggle and Secret Fighting

On the evening of the first day, the convoy set up camp in a clearing. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Uris and Yishan camped on either side of Myer's family, and the maids and guards were responsible for camping, so the two stayed here and didn't leave. Since the two of them were about to quarrel as soon as they spoke, and the people below were nervous when they quarreled, they simply did not say a word, sat quietly on both sides of the wagon, and watched as Maier and the three maids skillfully erected a tent.

The tent wasn't huge, but it was more than enough to sleep four people. This upset Euris and Yishan, who dangle over the three maids with their sharp eyes, as if wondering who will sleep next to Myer.

As it turned out, the two were overthinking. It was true that the tent could sleep four people, but the Meier family always slept in shifts when they set up camp. When Xiaoye and Xiaoyu didn't come, the first half of the night was Maier's night, and the second half of the night was Kiki's night. After Xiaoye and Xiaoyu came, the first half of the night was Meier and Kiki's night, and the second half of the night was Xiaoye and Xiaoyu's night.

Maier had never believed in his self-control after falling asleep, so he bought a tent with enough space, and he and Kiki slept on opposite sides of the tent. Both of them slept very well, barely moving after falling asleep, except for occasionally turning over, and as long as they were far enough away, there would be no physical touch.

After setting up the tent, Qiqi went to make dinner, and Xiao Ye took the initiative to help. The bird wanted to be lazy, so he grinned and approached Myer.

"Now, master, actually—ouch!"

Maier knew what she wanted to do when he saw the bird, and gave her a knife and drove her to cook.

When he came to the rice cooker, the little bird felt that the atmosphere in the neighborhood was a little strange. Kiki and Xiaoye didn't like to talk when they were cooking, but the silence of the two today made Xiaoniao feel depressed.

Oh, by the way, Xiao Ye doesn't seem to have much energy from the beginning of his departure, isn't he feeling unwell?

As for the little one...... Probably sitting in the back of the carriage for a long time, feeling unhappy, right?

Bird guessed one of the reasons why Kiki was in a bad mood, but he didn't guess why his friend was in a bad mood. In fact, it's no wonder, because Xiao Ye himself doesn't know why he is in a bad mood. After Yishan and Euris sat down beside Meier, it was as if a big stone had weighed down on her heart, and the heavy feeling of depression made her almost breathless.

As for Kiki, she understands very well why she is in a bad mood. From the moment she became Maier's maid, the place beside Maier belonged to her. Now that Euris and Yishan have snatched this position by virtue of their identities, how can Kiki's mood be good?

Girls are very vindictive, especially when it comes to feelings. After the soup was ready, Kiki took a small plate, scooped a little soup with a spoon and poured it inside, deliberately going to Maier to test the taste. Maier was not used to eating and drinking before meals, so he did not taste the soup. Kiki has been following Maier for so long, how could she not know this?

In fact, what she wanted was not for Mel to compliment her on the deliciousness of the soup, but for him to say something else.

"It tastes good, as long as it's Kiki's cooking, I love it."

"Yes, master."

Kiki returned to the soup pot with the small plate, drank the soup from the plate, and set the small plate aside. Then she lifted the corner of her skirt and gracefully bowed in the direction where Euris and Yishan were.

Something in Euris and Yishan's minds shattered like a glass poured into hot water just after it was taken out of cold water, but fortunately, it was not completely broken, and the two of them just gritted their teeth and looked at Kiki with a flat face, and did not do anything out of the ordinary.

Kiki only made dinner for four. She did this on purpose, Xiao Ye's spirit was a little trance, and she didn't notice this. Little Bird did find out, but she thought it would be awkward to eat dinner with the two big guys, so she didn't say anything.

Yishan, who had secretly learned cooking, felt that something was wrong when she saw the soup pot from afar, and when Kiki prepared the main food, she found that Kiki had not prepared her own share at all, which made her very angry. But she couldn't have a seizure, because she hadn't said she was going to finish her meal with Mel, and she hadn't greeted him beforehand.

Yishan, who knew that she couldn't eat, didn't want to be bored, so she jumped out of the carriage and went back to her camp. Yuris, who had no cooking foundation, saw Yishan leave, thinking that she had admitted defeat, and was complacent in her heart. But this joy disappeared like a fire doused by cold water after the Maier family had eaten, for Kiki had only prepared four sets of cutlery.

For the same reason, Euris jumped out of the carriage and went back to her camp for dinner. Both of them secretly wrote down this account and wanted to wait for the marriage to settle it together.

By the time dinner was over, it was completely dark. Campfires were lit in all three camps, and the camps on either side were flanked by maids and guards patrolling with torches. Mai and Ye go into the tent to meditate, while Kiki and Bird stand guard outside.

Kiki and Bird don't have a good relationship, but that doesn't mean they can't get along alone, it's just that the air gets stiffer when they're alone.

Bird doesn't like this oppressive atmosphere, so she finds something to talk about at this time. Most of the time, she was talking to herself, and Kiki would echo her with a few words. Birds generally say whatever comes to mind, mostly talking about what happened that day.

“…… So I think they, or one of them, will be our mistresses, and we'll have to have a good relationship with them in advance, lest we're — uh......"

Kiki's cold gaze made the bird obediently close its mouth. She didn't know which of her words was wrong, which made Kiki unhappy. Although she and Kiki don't deal with each other, they haven't reached the point where they will be happy when they see each other unhappy.

Pap-papa-pap-pap-

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of clapping hands behind the bird.

"Well said, well said."

Urise's figure emerged from the darkness with a smug smile on her face. She was followed by two maids, one of whom carried a folding bench in his hand. The maid opened the folding bench and placed it beside the campfire. Euris sat down on the bench and looked at the bird with interest.

"Go on."

"Huh?!"

Little Bird is just a girl born as a witch, and the status of a princess is as unattainable to her as the moon in the night sky. So she immediately lowered her posture and asked with a smile.

"Hey, hey, hey...... Your Royal Highness Princess, what would you like to hear from the little one? ”

"Just continue what you just said." Euris smiled and lifted her chin, "Just start with the part where you think that one of me and that little girl will be your mistress." ”

Uris calls Yishan a little girl, but she is only fifteen years old this year, which is one year younger than Yishan. As a Dugu person, Euris is much shorter than Yishan, whether the two sit together or stand together, Euris is a head shorter than Yishan. She said this just to boost her momentum, and she didn't mean to insult people.

By the way, the legs of the ancient people are relatively long, which is why Uris is a head shorter than Yishan when she stands and sits.

"Uh...... This ......"

Ignoring the bird's embarrassed look, Euris continued to ask.

"Which one do you think I or that little girl can be your housewife?"

Little Bird had thought about it, and now that Euris was in front of her, of course she had to pick up what Euris liked to hear.

"That'...... Of course it's you......"

"I think so too."

Euris smiled and turned her face to Kiki, who had a cold face.

"What about you? What do you think? ”

"Your Royal Highness Princess, I am just a subordinate, it is my duty to serve the master well, and it is not easy for me, a subordinate, to participate in other things."

"Tsk, that's a pity."

Euris glanced at the maid behind her, and the maid took out her purse, took a few large Tairong coins from it, and gave them to the bird. But he didn't want the bird to stare at the money in the maid's hand for a while, swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and didn't dare to take it, but looked at Kiki cautiously, as if waiting for her instructions.

It is natural for a master to reward his own servants, but to reward a servant of someone else's house must first be approved by his master. Because the servant belongs to the master, an outsider cannot reward or punish him beyond the master. Kiki had taught them these things when she was teaching them the etiquette of Leaf and Bird, but even so, Bird made this mistake, and Maier instructed Kiki to punish her, which Bird still remembers vividly.

As a princess, it is impossible for Euris not to know this rule. She did this to tell Kiki that she would sooner or later become Myer's wife, and that she had the confidence to do so. However, in Kiki's opinion, Euris's behavior was very childish, and she smiled slightly and politely saluted Euris.

"Your Highness Princess, if you want a reward, please ask our master first, lest we be punished for our mistakes."

Euris is a princess, so Kiki's words are very tactful. If it were an ordinary person, Qiqi would have said to her in a weird tone: "You are not our master mother, and it is not your turn to reward people." ”

Uris was bored with herself, so she asked the maid to put the money away, looked at Kiki with a meaningful look for a moment, and then got up and left. Not long after Euris left, Yishan came, she came alone, without a guard.

As soon as Yishan appeared, she unceremoniously asked the maids, "Where is your master?" ”

The little bird didn't dare to answer, Kiki got up and saluted Yishan, and replied, "The master is meditating in the tent." ”

Kiki didn't tell her about Xiao Ye also meditating in the tent, because in her opinion, Yishan was still an outsider and couldn't tell her her secrets. Yishan knew a little about Leting's magic, and knew that Lighting Magician couldn't be disturbed when he was meditating, so he stood by the campfire with an impatient face.

The bird did not dare to speak, and Kiki picked up a branch and fiddled with the small stone by the fire, but did not speak. Yishan saw that the two maids didn't care about herself, so she looked around for Xiao Ye's figure, but couldn't find it.

"What about your companions?"

Kiki put down the branch, got up and saluted Yishan again.

"Your Excellency the City Lord, the master has a special task for her."

"Special missions? What special tasks? ”

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency the City Lord, this is our family affair, and we can't pass it on."

This is our family matter, we can't talk to an outsider like you-Qiqi's voiceover made Yishan a little angry, but she couldn't have a seizure, so she could only look at Qiqi with a meaningful gaze like Yulis, and then left silently.

Kiki offends two big people at once, but she doesn't care about it. For her, being by Meier's side is the greatest happiness, and she is willing to pay no matter what the cost.

Meanwhile, in the tent of the Maier family.

Xiaoye's meditation did not go well, because she was never able to settle down. When Maier was meditating, he found that the effect of meditation was not as good as before, and subconsciously checked the situation on Xiaoye's side, only to find that Xiaoye's meditation situation seemed to be very bad. So Mel stopped meditating and let Ye Lian take a few deep breaths.

"Are you feeling better?"

The host is caring for me...... Can't let the host worry......

"Hmm...... It's better......"

Xiao Ye's mood gradually returned to calm, so the two continued to meditate.
