4. Is this gift special?
The butler's gaffe lasted only a second, and he quickly stabilized his mind, put away the horror in his heart, bent down to pick up the package that had fallen on the ground again, and returned to that standard smile on his face, explaining as if nothing had happened:
"I'm old, and I accidentally slipped my hand."
It was outrageous that an eighth-order powerhouse could slip his hands, but no one asked, so Klee introduced the two guests to Luoer.
"This is the sister Anya that I often mention in my letters."
As she spoke, she jumped up to Anya and put her arm around her affectionately.
"Hello, Uncle Rohr."
Anya lifted the skirts on both sides, bowed slightly, and made a very solemn aristocratic salute.
"Well, yes, yes, a good boy."
Rohr also nodded with satisfaction.
Anya's appearance and figure are impeccable, and the beautiful girl with a very high standard is like a paper man in a painting, or Tony's teacher's painting, if the ears are sharper, it will be more similar.
The temperament and cultivation are also impeccable, at first glance, she is a well-educated aristocratic lady, knowledgeable, generous and decent, and hopes that Klee will take such a route in the future.
Isn't it a princess or something?
Rohr thought to himself.
Klee jumped back up to him, stretched out her arms, looked up at him with her little face, and made a 'hug' gesture.
After Rohr picked her up, Klee leaned into his ear and whispered Anya's identity.
The Duke's daughter? The emperor's niece? What a princess......
"Sister Anya doesn't want to reveal her identity, so dad must not tell others!"
Klee forced a serious look with a small face, and said very seriously.
Rohr nodded.
Then Anya introduced the housekeeper Otto, only mentioning that he came to her two years ago and took good care of Klee, without mentioning rank and strength.
Klee also added on the side:
"The pudding made by Uncle Housekeeper is super delicious!"
"It's my pleasure."
The housekeeper also politely stroked his chest and saluted.
Although it seemed to be a decent response on the surface, the butler at this time had been thinking about what had just happened.
He had already carefully observed Luo Er at close range, and indeed he did not feel the slightest fluctuation in strength, and his body was quite strong, but it was only the level of an ordinary person.
With my rich experience and experience, no matter how I look at it, I am just an ordinary villager.
What was going on before that?
The housekeeper couldn't figure it out for the time being, so he could only continue to observe, and at the same time raise his vigilance in his heart.
Rohr didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, and asked Klee to take the guests home first, while he went to pick some fruit and come back to entertain the guests.
Anya looked at the fruit grove where Rohr went, and the sweetheart fruits hanging on the branches were all round and full, and the color was bright, and she had a great appetite when she looked at it, and she couldn't help but praise:
"Klee, your fruit trees are growing well."
"No, no, no, it's a neighbor's."
Klee quickly explained.
Anya: "? ”
After picking up a large basket of sweetheart fruits, Rohr turned to the neighbor's pigsty and looked at the shivering little suckling pigs.
"Emmmm, you look preoccupied?"
"You're beautiful, aren't you?"
As he spoke, he picked up the two little suckling pigs left and right.
The old sow next to her dared not speak out......
After handing over the little suckling pig to the fat man in the village and telling him to show his best skills and entertain important guests, Luo Er took a few bottles of fruit wine and went back to accompany the guests.
Rohr lives in the best house in the village, a two-story building made of blue bricks, which looks like a small villa.
In the living room, the housekeeper had already unpacked the packages he had carried all the way, and the prepared gifts were laid out one by one.
Most of them are men's clothes and accessories, suits, leather shoes, pocket watches, top hats, canes and other gentlemen's suits, there are seven or eight sets.
There are also silver candlesticks, dinner plates, standard aristocratic tea sets, and more.
The most outrageous thing is that there are still two hanging paintings and a shield-like thing?
"What is this?"
Rohr lifted the shield-shaped object, his face puzzled.
The thing is very well made, the material is sturdy and heavy, and the surface is carved with exquisite and ornate patterns, forming the shape of a blooming rose, which is lifelike.
"Such a beautiful shield? Aren't you afraid of being scratched? And why is there no grip behind this? ”
Rohr asked, puzzled.
Klee and Anya looked at each other, not knowing what to say......
This thing is not a shield, but a badge issued by the emperor himself, and it is also the Silver Rose Guardian Badge of the second rank of the Empire, second only to the highest level of the Golden Rose, in recognition of Klee's outstanding contribution to the defense of Clear Spring City.
Because it was obtained in defensive battles, it was made into the style of a shield, and although it was no problem to use it as a shield in terms of material and craftsmanship, the correct usage must be to hang it in the showroom to honor the ancestors.
Klee obviously didn't want her father to know about bullying the little monster outside, otherwise he would be so worried that he wouldn't be able to sleep, and he would have to talk for a long time, and he would definitely not let himself go out in the future.
So he had an idea and quickly explained:
"Because the craftsman didn't know the shape of Dad's hands, he didn't have a grip."
Anya also reacted, and said cooperatively:
"Yes, yes, uncle should also know that there is such a thing as a shield, you must take advantage of it."
Luo Er suddenly realized, nodded again and again:
"I see? I'm really ignorant of hillbillies, or you city people are thoughtful! ”
Klee and Anya secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But immediately I heard Rohr continue:
"Go back to that idiot and help me put on a grip."
The two girls were speechless for a while......
Rohr put down his shield and looked at the two paintings again.
Unexpectedly, the painting is very much to his liking?
One depicts Klee standing on a bell tower, eyes closed, hands folded in front of her chest, humming a song softly, silver ponytails fluttering in the wind, and white doves flying high on either side.
Another picture shows Klee sitting at her desk, reading a heavy book seriously, with a serious and focused expression, and a big bookshelf standing behind her, and a faint soft light sprinkled outside the window next to her, full of literary girlish temperament.
Both paintings are in a realistic style, the painter's skill is very high, Klee is depicted vividly, and the other colors are rendered very well, almost like an artistic photo on the earth.
Roolton smiled from ear to ear, he simply loved the gift.
It seems that her daughter is outside, just like she expected, studying hard and embarking on the growth route of everyone's ladies.
It's so sensible and obedient!
Worthy of my sweetest daughter!
Klee and Anya laughed with relief when they saw that Rohr liked these two paintings so much.
It was not in vain that the painter's high commission and hours of pretense.
