Chapter 323: The eldest lady arrives
readx;? Alan didn't think it was strange that Selena would take the initiative to help in the store, although she was the daughter of a noble family, but the Ogu family as a nobleman and the nobles in the south had an essential difference, in fact, they didn't mind the etiquette of some nobles, and the restrictions on the children of the family were not very strict, in fact, the Agu family still retains the uninhibited characteristics of many grassland peoples. www.biquge.info This is also an important reason why the aristocracy of the south thinks that the Agu family is a nouveau riche. But the Ogu family never cared about other people's opinions, and still went their own way and was content.
According to Selena's own account, when his father first found out about this, he said that she was messing around, but it was nothing more than that, and he did not have any intention of interfering or stopping it. ”
Steven replied.
"That's good!"
Steven's answer relieved Allen, if he wanted to live in the ancient city of Aogu, Holland's attitude was very important. It can be seen that Selena's attitude towards Selena's involvement in the management of the store shows that Holland values the store very much now, and he doesn't mind exposing this attitude to everyone, of course, the main reason for Holland's doing this is profit, but his permission to allow his daughter to interact with Steven frequently also shows that he likes his people very much. And Selena's transfer of the courtyard of the Augu family to Steven must have been nodded by Holance, which also shows that Holland hopes that they can live in the ancient city of Augu and establish a long-term cooperative relationship with each other, rather than leaving after taking revenge, on the other hand, Holland is also showing favor to himself in this way, although he has only met with Holland three times, but Alan can see that this person is definitely not a simple character, this person is very ambitious, when he finds out his value, it is likely to take some means of trapping, but he may disappoint him in this regard, and he doesn't mind cooperating with him, but it doesn't mean that he will be his subordinate, let alone become his person.
The fish was already dressed, and with the help of the little girl and Steven, the fish was brushed with oil and other spices, and Alan began to prepare the grilled fish, which was much simpler than roasting a whole sheep, and there was a charcoal fire in the middle of the yard, and Alan randomly summoned a few fireballs from it to roast three fish.
"Brother-in-law, celebrate your safe home, cheers!"
Steven poured three glasses of peach blossom wine, then took the lead in raising his glass and said. This wine was brought back by Alan from Moon Bay Village, and he drank some along the way, and there were a few cans left, and Steven specially took them out. Miranda originally wanted to drink some mule, but Steven said that today was a special day for reunion, and he wanted to drink some commemorative peach blossom wine, and Alan agreed, and the little girl had no choice.
"Cheers!"
Alan said. After being away for so long, there have always been many people around him, and he has lived in luxurious palaces, and there are even many elves who serve in front of and behind him, but until this moment he feels a little at home.
"My brother-in-law's craftsmanship hasn't changed at all, it's still so delicious!"
Putting down the wine glass and picking up the grilled fish, Steven said after taking a hard bite with drool.
"yes, I think it's especially delicious today. ”
The little girl also immersed herself in concentrating on the grilled fish in her hand.
"Steven, how far have you cultivated your magic?"
It wasn't until she finished eating a whole grilled fish that the little girl wiped her oily lips and asked Steven.
"This... I've been busy with the shop lately and have very little time to practice magic. ”
Steven was stunned for a moment by the little girl's question, and then said with some hesitation.
"See how good my level is?"
The little girl wiped her lips and did what she liked best, showing off her magic skills.
In the sound of the little girl's magic spell, three fist-sized fireballs were separated from the charcoal fire one after another, and the three fireballs flew into the palm of the little girl's hand, circling and flying. This is a kind of fireball, not very powerful, but it is very good for fire magicians to practice fire control, so Alan has been teaching her this technique, she has basically been able to manipulate it freely after a period of practice, and it can be seen from this point alone that the little girl has the level of a junior magician.
"Compared to my brother-in-law, how is it?"
Steven looked at the little girl's smug expression, shook his head and said.
"Hey, I'm not comparing myself to Brother Ellen, I'm comparing myself to you. How about it? Do you want to learn it, I can teach it to you. ”
The little girl stopped the spell, the fireball in her hand slowly dissipated, now there was no little Alba, she urgently needed a new admirer, Steven was obviously a good object, so she leaned over to Steven and winked at him with big eyes.
"I have a brother-in-law, and I don't need you to teach me. ”
Steven leaned against Allen's arm and said nonchalantly. However, the meaning of his words can be understood from two aspects, on the one hand, he said that he has Allen's protection and does not need to practice magic, and on the other hand, it means that even if he wants to learn, he will find Allen to learn, and the little girl is not worthy.
"Steven's magical talent is far inferior to yours, no matter how hard you try, it is impossible for you to be as fast, even when I studied at the Academy of Magic for two years, it was a little worse than your current level. ”
Alan took a sip of wine, and then said to the little girl. He didn't say this to make the little girl happy and exaggerate the facts, in fact, the little girl's magic talent itself is not weaker than he was at the beginning, and now he has received a systematic magic education, when the students of the magic academy are practicing the decomposition of various magic spells, Alan can easily tell the little girl that the meaning of each character of this magic spell can be disassembled and reassembled, and how the magic obtained is different, so it is not difficult to understand that the little girl's growth rate is far faster than at the beginning.
"But Steven, don't be discouraged, if you want to gain strong strength and not be bullied by others, you don't have to have a high combat effectiveness, sometimes let people with high combat effectiveness serve you, that will be a higher level. Just like our store can hire a team of mercenaries to keep us safe, it's not impossible to hire an entire group of mercenaries if we have enough money. ”
Alan turned his head and comforted Steven again. Initially, Steven's magic was mainly taught for idle fun, after the tragedy in Moon Bay Village, his purpose has changed somewhat, more hope that Steven can master a certain amount of magic and have the ability to protect himself, but now it seems that with Steven's magic talent, even if it takes a lot of time, it is impossible to achieve much, it is better to spend more time on the operation of the store, earn enough money, it may be better to ask someone to protect himself, and it is easier to help him financially.
"Brother-in-law, I have made a note of what you said, but I still hope to continue to learn magic, and my brother-in-law will guide me more when he has time. ”
Steven picked up the wine glass and touched it with Allen, then said seriously.
"Master, Miss Selena is here. ”
While the three of them were eating and chatting, a figure flashed at the small door in the backyard, and the servant Eugene who guarded the door had already walked in, and after saluting Steven, he said.
