70 Golden Bears
The early morning rooster crows from the castle courtyard, and the servants open the windows, and a cool breeze blows in with them.
The starry winter came late and short, but it was very cold, and it was now mid-January, and winter was almost coming.
The characteristic fireplace that connects the castle has been lit with fire, and servants are constantly carrying firewood to fill it.
At this time, the castle cooks had just begun to prepare breakfast for the new day, although it was only breakfast, but it was also very laborious, and the rules of the Samuel family were many, and the same was true for food, which was to eat only freshly baked meals at breakfast, and never to eat cold or hot.
At the same time, they also have strict requirements for ingredients, for noodles, they must make noodles with minced whiskers from Duolun City, and for dessert, they only eat cane sugar from the Misty Mountains.
Fruits are even more particular, too ripe do not eat, green do not eat, unripe is not just the best, there are special personnel to supervise, which also indirectly caused the Samuel family cooks to eat good things, as soon as the ingredients are unqualified and digested by the servants, it is simply delicious for them.
There are many inconspicuous little details in life that the nobles and lords can't pay attention to at all, but these constitute the whole life of the servants.
"You say, is Lord Allen really gone?" a cook muttered to her companion in the cabbage room.
They had just finished the castle master's breakfast, and they began to prepare the ingredients for noon and evening before they had eaten, because the lord of the city was going to hold a banquet to entertain many nobles in the city today, and it was said that it was because of the awakening of the second lady, Renee.
"Then there is still a fake, I saw him pack up and leave the castle with my own eyes. The companion slammed a piece of beef on the board, and responded as he worked: "I also saw the eldest lady looking for him, but it doesn't seem to be of much use." ”
"The eldest lady seems to have a good impression of His Excellency Allen. ”
"Probably, but you must know that the eldest lady has lived in the castle for so long, but rarely comes into contact with strangers, perhaps because it is fresh, and it is not interesting in that set, I guess it will not be long before she forgets Lord Allen. ”
"That's not necessarily, the average person is not as eye-catching as Lord Allen. ”
"What's the use of attracting people's attention, not rejecting the marriage of the family?"
“....”
Servants don't think about things so deeply at all, they only look at the surface, and don't think about the reasons behind the marriage, so when they encounter things, they will only talk about the superficial.
"Yes, but what's interesting is that the second lady has been thinking about His Excellency Alan since she woke up. ”
"Second Miss, how did she know Lord Allen?"
"You forgot, it was Lord Allen who woke up the second miss. ”
"Oh, life-saving grace?"
"Uh-huh, hey, hey, hey..."
The two servants were squeezing their eyebrows when someone next to them suddenly interjected, "I just met Will, and guess what?"
"What's wrong?"
"Lord Allen left a letter for the eldest lady!
"Letter?" the servants were intrigued, and hurried to inquire about the details. It's a pity that the servant didn't know anything but that there was such a thing, and his answer was rather disappointing. But that doesn't stop the servants from gossiping.
"It seems that the line between the eldest lady and Lord Allen is unlikely to be broken. "There is a cook lady with a determined face.

In fact, not only the servants were talking about this sudden letter, but even the castle owners at this time, the Gross, were whispering about it.
"Is it really just about the newspaper company?"
Sitting at the dining table absentmindedly eating breakfast, Catherine looked at her daughter's back running upstairs with suspicious eyes, thought for a moment, turned to look at Gross, and said firmly: "I'm sure there's something else going on here." ”
"Well, what else could there be. Gross chewed on his meal, opening and closing his eyelids as he ate, visibly absent-minded.
There were too many things that happened yesterday, Allen was on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was making a purge plan with others, although Alan was gone, but Gross did not give up on this plan, and many high-level executives who originally resisted had also decided to cooperate, so naturally it would take more time to discuss and improve, so he didn't sleep at all last night.
"If nothing else, how could Mary have hurried upstairs?"
"Maybe my sister has something else..."The girl who spoke in a subtle voice, even a weak and inaudible feeling, like a mosquito and a fly, but it immediately attracted the attention of the husband and wife.
"Renee, you're still weak, try to talk as little as possible. Catherine admonished with a serious face.
Originally, she sat next to Renee to take care of her, but the girl was stubborn and had to do it herself, so she had no choice but to go back to Gross, but she was very nervous about the second daughter who had just woken up.
Shaking her head, the girl did not listen to her mother, but spoke again: "Where is grandfather?"
Catherine was puzzled by this question, and she looked at Gross, only to find that the guy was about to fall asleep, and she couldn't help but be a little annoyed.
"My daughter is talking to you!"
"What... What?"
"Where's my uncle?"
"Well, go clean up the last traitors. Gross responded, then wiped the corner of his mouth with his hand.
"It's strange, how could a sloppy ghost like you be born when my mother loves cleanliness so much?" Catherine didn't ask carefully, but was annoyed by her husband's appearance at this time.
"That's because you didn't know your father, he...."
The small talk between the two couples did not last, because Margaret ran down panting, looking nervous, gasping and saying, "He, he said." ”
"What did he say?" asked Catherine.
"He said that Renee's disease was not completely eradicated, but only temporarily suppressed, and he said..."
The weak little girl listened curiously to her sister's words, Catherine was shocked when she heard this, and Gross also frowned, and said with displeasure: "This kind of thing is so important, why didn't he tell us in person?"
"He said it himself. Margaret looked odd.
"What are you talking about? He's gone, how can he still be in the castle?"
Margaret shook her head and did not speak, but placed one of the things she was holding in her hand in front of Catherine.
It was a solid gold statue, the size of a palm, in the shape of a cute bear, and Catherine loved it when she saw it, because the bear was her family's crest.
"Isn't that the statue I put in his room?
Catherine stopped abruptly before she could finish her words, and then the whole person was stunned.
Not only Catherine, but also Gross, as well as Renee, who had come up cautiously, had fallen into a state of stupor.
Because the cute bear statue suddenly spoke!
As if transformed into a living creature, the bear statue's originally cracked mouth suddenly moved, and then I heard it say something: "Renee's body has a very high level of energy, I used a special potion to turn this energy into her own, but she can't master such a high level of power, so after hearing this, you must tell Uncle Gross to think of other ways to solve this matter completely before that energy explodes....."
Although this sentence is Allen's voice, it appeared from the mouth of the statue, one by one, and the mouth shape can be completely matched, if it is not for the extremely familiar voice of Allen, they will even think that this statue suddenly comes to life!
"This is also .... Magic?" Gross touched his chin.
"No, it can't be magic!" Renee, a mage's apprentice, replied firmly, her eyes fixed on the golden bear, her expression full of interest.
