Chapter 32: Family Meeting. Top 1
Zizizi......
The contact between the fat and the scorching bottom of the pan immediately produced a very rhythmic and appetizing sound, and with the addition of some refined salt and paprika, the aroma was enough to make everyone salivate; The cook standing by the stove carefully looked at the color of the mutton in the pot, put the potato and radish pieces that had already been cut into it, and quickly stir-fried them with the spatula in her hand - the cook lady who is worth 100 copper (equivalent to 100 banknotes, half of Kimpton) a week naturally has her value, just less than an hour, a table of delicious food enough for two adults for a day, from the pre-dinner aperitif to the most fruitful are placed on the oval table in the restaurant
When everything was done, the cook walked to the staircase leading to the second floor and gently pulled a black rope; Suddenly, a crisp bell rang.
Dingdingding......
Counting the number of times the bell rang silently in her heart, when she reached the tenth time, the cook let go of the rope - as a cook and cleaner, she needed skills in addition to cooking skills and diligence, and a necessary respectful heart could not be missing; After all, it was quite difficult to come across such a high weekly wage and a respectable employer, and she knew very well that there were many people in the lower town who coveted her job; Therefore, she kept in mind the instructions of her employer: every morning she had cleaned up all the rooms and living rooms on the ground floor, and prepared the standard food for two adults in a day; After that, rattle notification; If ten tones have passed. No reply words. She can leave and come again the next morning to repeat the previous day's work.
After bowing respectfully to the staircase, the cook checked her work again, and finally covered the prepared food with a cover that could keep warm, and then turned and left the room - the whole process was very serious, even meticulous; After all, just one morning to finish the day's work is pretty good news for anyone; This not only means that she can have a rare leisure time in the afternoon, but also means that she can have an extra income again; Although the temporary part-time job is less than the regular income, it is a complete surprise for her. Why not?
And this naturally made her grateful to the employer who allowed her to get an extra payment, not to mention that the employer himself could be called generous; Aside from the fact that he eats a little heavily, this hired man is perfect in the eyes of the cook, with elegant and decent manners. has a handsome face and a tall figure, even if it is that cold attitude, she sees it as a unique temperament; If she were ten years younger, I am afraid that some other bad thoughts would have arisen in her heart.
As for now?
Of course, she worked hard to repay the kindness of this adult, and received enough remuneration to support the family, and she was already a mother of two children, even though her husband was working hard outside, but she did not feel any ease at all—her husband's boss was simply a cunning, stingy and even shameless bug compared to her adult. Every month she would find an excuse to deduct more than half of her husband's salary; If it weren't for the fact that it was really hard to find a job, she would have persuaded her husband to leave and find a new boss.
If this lord still needs a subordinate, it will be great!
With this in mind, the cook gently closed the door of the courtyard—and at the moment when the cook closed the door, a figure suddenly emerged from the shadow of the corner of the living room and went straight to the oval table in the dining room.
Faced with the aroma of stewed mutton and bread, Ellaro did not hide anything, grabbed a loaf of bread with one hand, and held a hairpin in the other hand to insert the mutton, potatoes, and radishes in the basin; At this moment, Ellaro does not have any so-called 'aristocratic demeanor'. After devouring it for a long time, he took the hot milk on the table and drank it all, and then he breathed a sigh of relief; However, looking at the scene behind the wind and clouds on the desktop, he couldn't help blushing a little, and then quickly and skillfully cleaned up; Try to make a situation where no one has touched at all - this is her third day in the Firth house. Originally planned to hide and rest here in Feth for a day, and then leave at night at night, Ellaro obviously underestimated his sister's reflexes. Suddenly, there were fifty percent more patrols and guards, especially the private soldiers with the Dick family badge who could be seen casually in Red Leaf City, and Ellaro immediately wisely chose to give up the opportunity to flee at night. …,
While the patrols and guards were no obstacle to him, the family's privates were a big problem, especially when they were in groups; After all, the strength of the private soldiers who can be selected into the Dick family is not questioned at all; There may be a big gap between the individual and the adult Demon Hunter and Starlight-level Apostle, but the number is enough to make up for this gap, and even exceed it by a lot - after becoming a private soldier of any family, they will go through a battlefield training that is not short, the process can be called torture, and they will be re-experienced every year; After all, as a private soldier of a family, as the elite of the troops in the Qiulin District, when he obtained supplies that others could not get, he also needed to pay sweat and blood that ordinary people could not imagine.
In the face of such a team, unless it has absolute strength, if it is entangled, its fate is naturally self-evident; Especially for a person like her, who ran away from home, but still couldn't kill her family's private soldiers, this kind of trouble was enough to make anyone feel a headache; Therefore, after weighing it for a while, Ellaro decided to continue to hide in Fez, and wait until the limelight passed - in Ellaro's cognition, Ferro's 'independent character', who has broken away from the family and has certain thoughts about his sister, is undoubtedly a very controllable existence, and can even help her achieve her wish to run away from home or rescue her subordinates.
However, for this existence, which only existed in her memory and had not been seen for four years, Ellaro did not appear in front of the other party unexpectedly, but quietly observed the other party - but unfortunately, in two and a half days, she only saw each other a few times during dinner, and the rest of the time the other party was in the laboratory upstairs, so she could not make an accurate judgment at all.
And now, Ellaro decided not to wait any longer - there are still two days to go, and the meeting of the various families in Red Leaf City will begin, and at that time, she has not left Red Leaf City, and she has no intention of losing the last opportunity.
