Chapter 0216: Face-to-Face Voyeurism (Fourth Update, Alliance Leader Supplement 12/22)
The footprints continued to the castle gate and vanished.
No one noticed this, not including the knights who patrolled around the castle in the snow.
The kitchen of the castle, Mrs. Aby's voice, was so loud that even the hall could be heard. Carter, the butler, was wiping down the lamps and the ornaments on the walls, and when he heard the voice, he shrugged his shoulders unconsciously.
"She's always so rude, why can you tolerate her?" said Thomas mockingly, arriving as he straightened the stools in the hall.
Carter didn't like Thomas, not only because Thomas despised his authority as a butler, but also because Thomas always liked to speak ill of others. He replied solemnly, "Because she is Mrs. Abi, and because the lord loves to eat the delicious food she makes, and the servants like it too." ”
"I think so, if it weren't for her ability to cook, she would have been fired by the master. ”
"Not necessarily, the lord is a noble nobleman with a benevolent quality, and he will offer a new position for Mrs. Abbey. ”
"The lord is so merciful to the servant that he wants me to say that Jesse, Tom, and Erin should be taken away, they are just rubbish. ”
"It's better not to let the lord hear this, everyone is doing their part, they are not making mistakes, and they should not be called waste. ”
"Huh. Thomas sneered, "If you change to anyone, you can do better than them!"
As he was talking, Mrs. Abbey's soprano suddenly came from the kitchen: "Damn Irene, what about the dishes I asked you to wash, I will kiss your ass with my boots if I delay the lord's dinner!"
Then Erin retorted loudly: "I'm washing the beans, it's what you ordered!"
"Oh, yes, you won't be a little quicker, wash all the beans and vegetables!"
"Do you know how many beans there are, Maggie, tell Mrs. Abi, I think her eyes are old!"
"Oh my God, are you going to rebel, Erin!"
The quarrel in the kitchen provided the fodder for Thomas, who snorted disdainfully: "That's what you said, everyone is doing their part, and the truth is, waste is waste." ”
Carter didn't pay attention to it, but said, "Have you set up the tables and chairs upstairs, today's dinner party is early, don't delay." ”
"Tom and Jesse aren't going to set up the tables and chairs?"
"They're responsible for delivering food to town, so I'll leave that to you. ”
"Huh!"
Thomas scoffed, but went upstairs anyway, he was just a valet and needed to follow the butler's orders.
But the quarrel in the kitchen did not stop, Mrs. Abi was still on the hair dryer, and kept growling, and Erin still angrily retorted to Mrs. Abi. But the work of the kitchen was in order, and it did not come to a standstill because of quarrels, and even the intern maids performed their duties as if nothing happened.
Everyone is used to the strange relationship between Mrs. Abi and Erin, sometimes like enemies, sometimes like mother and daughter.
Maggie got used to it, too.
She took a broom and was responsible for sweeping up the rotten leaves on the ground, which could be fed to the serfs to the chickens.
"Maggie, do you want to eat?" As soon as the quarrel stopped, Erin, who was in charge of washing the vegetables, suddenly took out a handful of shriveled peanuts from the corner and stretched them out in front of Maggie like no one.
"No, Sister Erin, I have, I haven't eaten yet. She also pulled out a handful of shriveled peanuts from the corner.
There is a peanut processing workshop in the town, and many peeled peanuts are purchased every day, and the plump peanuts are suitable for making various peanut snacks and peanut butter for the caravan to sell. The remaining shriveled peanuts are divided into portions and given to the castle's servants as snacks.
Working in a castle, of course, there will be some perks that ordinary people can't enjoy.
Erin put the peanuts in her pocket and said, "The peanuts are the best to stir-fry, and when Mrs. Abi leaves the kitchen after dinner, we can fry the peanuts ourselves." ”
"Mrs. Abi, not allowed. ”
"As long as she doesn't find out, don't worry, I'll brush the pot clean, she won't find out. ”
"But, Mr. Carter, find out, will, punish you. ”
"It's okay, just fry the peanuts in a pan, Mr. Carter won't blame. Like the old man, he never treated us servants harshly, even if I was just a kitchen maid. ”
"Well, well. Maggie licked her lips, she had eaten fried peanuts once, and she had loved this delicious snack, which was much better than the servant's dinner every day.
......
Bathroom.
Liszt stood next to the bathtub and used a tape measure to measure the area of the bathtub and bathroom.
After collecting the data, he went straight to the study, took out the thick paper, and began to write and draw on it, designing the so-called bathtub hot spring.
The little fire dragon is not a safe energy source.
It is necessary to ensure that it can be used for heating at the same time, and do a good job of safety protection, this is a brain-consuming design, the blacksmith and carpenter of Flower Town, must not have the brain and knowledge, to design a bathtub hot spring.
"It seems that the three laws of thermodynamics, or some law, stipulate the three properties of boiling hot water - heat convection, heat conduction and heat radiation, heat radiation is not used for the time being, heat conduction and heat convection are the most suitable ways. In the case of heat conduction, the water in the entire bathtub can be heated as long as it is heated in one part of the bathtub. ”
Thinking about it.
He felt that his brain was a little messy, and the content of physics in junior high school was basically returned to the teacher.
But he knows one thing, whether it is heating from the bottom of the tub, allowing the water to convection, so that the hot water rises and the cold water sinks. Or heat the water from the side of the bathtub so that the water temperature is constantly transmitted to the other side, you need to have a water tank isolated from the bathtub to heat the little fire dragon.
"You can't keep the little fire dragon hot, and after taking a bath, you have to put the little fire dragon away, so you have to ask a craftsman to carve the volcanic glass jar immediately...... When carving, how to release the bubbles inside is a troublesome matter. ”
He propped up the table with one hand and cocked his chair on both legs in boredom.
Then pick up a piece of volcanic glass.
Cast the Eye of Magic, prepare to observe the magic of the fire dragon inside the bubble again, and think about how to cooperate with the craftsman to collect the magic of the fire dragon.
However, when the magic eye was cast, his gaze fell on the window of the study, and he was startled.
With a shake of the hand, the volcanic glass was thrown away, and the chair was also thrown over.
Fortunately, he was nimble, twisting to restrain his toppling body and standing firmly on the table.
Then he forced his eyes to move to the volcanic glass on the ground, instead of looking at the window, because there, a magical human figure appeared, leaning against the wall. It can be seen that this is a full-breasted woman, who is holding her hands to her chest, and her eyes seem to be staring at Liszt.
The cold magic humanoid appeared in the study where he thought he was absolutely safe, and the unexpected effect was absolutely terrifying.
Fortunately, Liszt used the embarrassing fall to hide his surprise.
Without alarming the magical humanoid, the other party just changed his posture and continued to lean against the wall, staring at Liszt.
"What is it? What is this?" Liszt bent down, carefully picking up the volcanic glass, forcing himself to calm down and think about what this sudden appearance of the magical human form was.
Wait for him to straighten up.
The panic after the fright had quickly calmed down, and the brain had regained its wit, immediately reminiscent of the reward of the Smoke Quest - the thief who peeked at the lord.
