Chapter 30: Who Are You?
It took George a while to coax Millie in the morning, and Mona was much better in comparison, not as sentimental as Millie at all.
The three of them were sitting at the table in the tavern at this time, eating breakfast.
In front of the three of them, Millie had the most meals, followed by George. Although Mona has a great appetite since practicing the "qi" taught to her by George, and can eat a lot more than she used to, she is still the smallest of the three of them.
Millie's mouth was stuffed with food at this time, and she said vaguely, "Dumplings, this paper steamed inside looks good!" Looks much younger than before! ”
As soon as Millie spoke to George, several pieces of food squirted out.
George looked at the scraps on his plate that were squirted by Millie with a black line, and he said to Millie with a serious face: "Millie, don't talk while eating!" ”
"Oh~"
At this opening, a few more food scraps fell out......
Millie quickly closed her mouth and concentrated on eating, but her eyes were still fixed on George's face.
It was the first time she had seen George without a beard.
Mona would occasionally look at George, who looked at him differently.
Both of them were amazed by George's beardless appearance at the same time, they didn't expect George without a beard to look so young and handsome, compared to the bearded appearance before.
Not long after eating, George felt a shadow flash past him, and he immediately turned his head to look.
I saw a man about the same height as Rab ask the waiter for some food, and then go to a table and sit down.
George looked over again, hey! Isn't this Rab.
The height of the sign, as well as the thinning hair, coupled with the expression that always looked iron-hearted, was 100% Rab.
George quickly swept away the food on his plate, picked up the cloth towel next to him, wiped his mouth casually, and then got up and walked towards Rab.
George walked over to Rab's table and sat down, greeting him.
"Hey! Rab, what a coincidence! You've come here too. ”
Rab, who was eating, put down the food in his hand, and he looked at the person in front of him who could call his name with a puzzled expression, constantly thinking about who the other party was. Looking at the other party's dress and appearance, he should be a nobleman who knows him, and he looks a little familiar, but he just can't remember who he is!
I really couldn't think of it, so Rab had to ask straightly, "Who are you?" ”
Only then did George suddenly remember that he had changed a little, and the other party didn't recognize him. For a moment, he wanted to make a joke on Rab in his prank, but when he thought of Millie who had been made to cry this morning, he quickly extinguished the idea.
So George said truthfully: "I'm George!" It's just that I changed my clothes and shaved my beard, can't you even see this? ”
"George?"
Rab frowned, squeezing his eyes to look at the strange George in front of him, one of his gesturing on George's face from time to time......
It took a while for Rab to finally recognize it as George.
He patted George on the shoulder, laughed and said, "It's you, George!" I don't even recognize you if you don't say it, because you're so young, and I always think you're much older than me! ”
"If you could change your hairstyle, maybe you would be a lot younger."
As he spoke, George gently removed Rab's big hand on his shoulder, Rab's strength is not small, thanks to his strong body, if he were an ordinary person, it would be impossible to stand it this time.
Rab touched his thinning head with his withdrawn hand, then sighed and said, "I'm all like this, what hairstyle can I choose." ”
Rab didn't want to continue on the topic that made him sad, and he instead asked, "How did you end up here?" I remember you were taking the land route to the north. How did you change your mind? Planning to take a boat trip? ”
George said helplessly: "I can't help it, I originally wanted to take a pony carriage all the way to the imperial capital." But the result was full of twists and turns, and even the carriage was gone. I happened to come here, and I heard that there was a boat going directly to the imperial capital, so I planned to take a boat directly. ”
"It's a pity that I gave you those bacon!" Rab had a pity on his face, "You made the right choice!" Recently, the Fujin Empire has not been peaceful, and the safest and fastest way is to go by boat. ”
"By the way, why are you here, do you also go to the imperial capital?"
Hearing George's question, Rab lowered his head and took a sip of wine, and in the angle that George couldn't see, he said with a somewhat gloomy look: "It's with you all the way, I'm going back to attend a 'friend's wedding'." ”
"Okay, when the celebration is over today, let's take a boat together tomorrow, shall we?"
"Okay."
After eating, Millie and Mona walked over and politely greeted Rab together.
"Hello Mr. Raab."
"Hello!" Rab looked at Mona, and then pointed to the flesh of Monabu's arm exposed outside her skirt, "Mona, you are the right person, I haven't seen you for a while, you are much stronger than before!" Look at your arm, it looks so much more powerful than it used to be. ”
When Mona heard Rab compliment her on her strength, she didn't know what to say, so she could only smile politely in awkward. However, Rab is indeed right, since practicing the Qi taught by George, not only has she eaten more, but her body has also become more and more powerful.
George couldn't help but chuckle when he heard Rab's alternative way of complimenting, and he thought to himself, no wonder this guy is still a bachelor at his age, such a compliment, just ask which girl who loves beauty would be happy.
"Okay, you can eat first, I'll take them out for a walk."
"Okay, you guys go, but Mona will stay for a while, I have something I want to say to her privately."
"Okay, let's talk, Millie, let's wait at the door for a while."
When Rab saw George leading Millie out of the door, he said to Mona, who looked a little unnatural, while eating, "I met your father when I came out of the town. ”
When Mona heard the word "father", she didn't feel that her daughter missed her father. For as long as she can remember, her father has often beaten and scolded her, and she was able to tolerate it before. But since that incident when her father sold her to the mayor, she has secretly sworn that she will never forgive her father again.
Mona pursed her lips hesitantly, but still asked, "How is he?" ”
Rab looked at Mona and knew why she was like this, and since that incident, the news that Mona was sold by her father to the mayor has spread throughout the town.
"I don't know who your father heard from that you went to the imperial capital with a big nobleman to live a good life. He seems to be borrowing money from all over the town, saying that he wants to borrow the money to go to the imperial capital to find you, and that he will pay back everyone twice when he returns. ”
"Thank you, I think it's time for me to go." With that, Mona turned and walked out the door.
"You're welcome." Rab continued to eat the steak in his mouth.
