Chapter 62: Grandpa's Birthday
The Minister of Industry, Dean, sent an alchemist in his thirties to stay in Frandi's magic tower, and this alchemist was also a graduate of the Academy of Magic, so he could be regarded as the senior of everyone.
Although he is a senior, he has learned a lot of new knowledge after getting along with Flandy for more than ten days, and he has to go back and forth between the magic tower and the Ministry of Industry every day with a large stack of drawings.
It can be said that his understanding of these drawings designed by Frandi is still above Tom and Jerry, after all, he is older and more experienced than the two assistants.
Sometimes, when Brandi is too busy, he will also help design some features.
That morning, instead of designing the drawings, Flandy changed into a noble gown wearing the Pullman family crest. and his sister Anne, who was also dressed in a lady's costume, drove a magic car to the Viscount Melward Palace.
Because today is my grandfather's 70th birthday, the entire Melward family will attend, as well as the senior executives and heads of the family business throughout the continent will also return to the imperial capital on this day to participate in the birthday of the head of the family.
In addition, my grandfather also took on the responsibility of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and many nobles and big businessmen in the imperial capital would also attend this birthday party.
Mr. Quint, the director of the Viscount's Palace, stood at the gate of the mansion to greet the guests, and the last time Flandy came to drive this magic car, Mr. Quint recognized it as the grandson of the head of the family.
"Miss Anne, Master Flandy, you are here, please come in. Director Quint greeted him.
"Hello, Mr. Quint, my grandparents are here. Frandy snorted politely.
"Young Master Flandy, this morning His Majesty the Emperor summoned the head of the family into the palace, I don't know what happened, I just left not long ago. It's not in the house now, the lady of the house is in the hall, and I'll take you in. ”
"Huh, His Majesty Haman summoned Grandpa?" Flandy was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"Don't bother Mr. Quinte, my sister and I can just go in by ourselves. ”
Frandy and Anne belong to the family, and Quint butler is not polite, "Okay, young master, there are still many VIPs coming, I am here to greet you." ”
The Viscount's Mansion covers a large area, and Flandy and Anne crossed several tree-lined paths to the banquet hall.
The banquet hall is divided into several rooms, and the largest hall is used because of the large number of guests today.
Because it was still relatively early, there were not many people in the hall, the eldest and second uncles and the clansmen from other family branches had already taken the first step, and the two siblings greeted each other all the way and entered the lounge of the banquet hall, where their grandmother rested.
My grandmother was a few years younger than my grandfather, and she was usually very well maintained, not at all like an old woman in her sixties, who was chatting with a few aunts and uncles in the lounge.
"Hello Grandma!" Flandy and Anne cried affectionately.
Seeing the youngest daughter's pair of children, the grandmother seemed very happy and beckoned the sister and brother to sit down.
However, the lounge was full of women, and Flandi was embarrassed to sit here for a long time, so after the ward said a word, he left the lounge and went to the lobby of the banquet hall.
Seeing Frandy coming, the eldest uncle Koud and the second uncle Lowry came over with a sad face. The father of the head of the family was summoned by His Majesty the Emperor early in the morning, and both of them were very worried.
"Flandy!" the second uncle called.
"Hello, uncle, second uncle. Frandy saluted the two uncles.
Uncle Kord patted Flandy's shoulder and said kindly, "Flandy, I wasn't here last time you came to the house, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
"Uncle, there are too many things at school, and I will have time after a while, and I will definitely come to visit my two uncles and grandfather often in the future. ”
"Alas, your grandfather was summoned to the palace by His Majesty the Emperor this morning, and you often go to the palace to see Your Majesty, do you know why?"
Brandi smiled and said to the two uncles: "Don't worry, grandpa will definitely be a good thing to go this time, don't worry." ”
Seeing that Flandy was sure, the two uncles felt a lot more relieved. But there are still some worries.
At this moment, Quint butler walked in with a fat nobleman who looked like a mountain of meat.
The Roshan nobleman wore a necklace made of a huge magic core on his chest, several large rings on his fingers, and a luxurious aristocratic costume, with his chest held high and his chin held high, looking very arrogant.
Behind him, there was a Roshan who was a few sizes younger, also dressed in luxurious clothes, just like the big Roshan, with his chest held high and his chin raised to look around. He was followed by two retinue servants.
"Who are they?
The second uncle glanced at the Roshan nobles in disgust, and introduced to Flandy in a low voice: "This is Auston Mallory, his father is an earl, they used to be war nobles, but one generation is not as good as the next, and now they are slowly developing towards business, and they have been unable to get along with our family when they used to do silk and wine industry, and I also took the opportunity to make trouble when I bought the magic core a few days ago." ”
Romandy nodded in understanding.
But even if it was disgusting, Auston was the earl's heir after all, and the two uncles still greeted him.
"We are honored to welcome Mr. Mallory and Master Mallory to my father's birthday party. The two uncles saluted the Roshan nobleman.
Alston snorted disdainfully, and said lightly, "Why didn't that old man from Willard come out to meet me?
This word reached Frandy's ears and immediately made him angry. However, this kind of occasion is not suitable for hands, so I can only secretly write it down in my heart.
The eldest uncle Kod also held back his anger and reluctantly explained: "My father was summoned by His Majesty the Emperor early in the morning, and he has not come back yet. It's rude. ”
The Roshan nobleman snorted again, and without looking at the two uncles, he walked to the middle of the hall and sat down in the place where the head of the family should have sit.
The children of the surrounding families all cast resentful glances at him, but the Roshan nobles didn't care at all. As if no one was around, he ate the fruit that was placed on the edge of his seat.
Flandie couldn't stand it anymore, he wasn't a good-natured person, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control himself, so he turned out of the banquet hall and went to the garden in the backyard to relax.
The garden in the backyard of the Viscount's Mansion is large, but now that it is winter, there are not many flowers that can bloom, but many trees are still lush and full of life.
There is a rockery in the garden, and there is a small pool under the rockery. There are several aquarium fish in the pond that cannot be named. A couple of children are playing with a twig to play with a fish.
Seeing Frandy coming, several of the children turned around, and one of the older thirteen or fourteen-year-olds shouted happily, "Cousin Frandy!"
Frandy saw that it was his little cousin, the fourth son of his second uncle. Sean Melward.
The little cousin has been a great admirer of Romandy since he was a child. A few years ago, he was also sent to the Academy of Magic to study.,In the magic talent test, it was found that the talent was good.,Now he's still a magic apprentice.。 However, because he worships Flandi, he is also learning alchemy.
Flandi was also very happy to see this little cousin, when he used to come to the Viscount's Mansion, he always followed him as a little tail, and he was very close to him.
"Sean, what are you guys playing?" asked Flandy curiously as he walked over to the pool.
One of the children, an eight or nine-year-old girl, said timidly: "Brother Sean said that this fish can fly, but we don't believe it." ”
Flandi had been here before and knew that it was a species called Xiangyu. It is a relatively rare fish, with long pectoral fins that extend to the tail, like the wings of birds. The pectoral fins are blue overall, but the fin tail has a gold edge, which is very beautiful.
If it is in a lake or river, this fish swims quickly, then jumps out of the water, and by inertia it is really able to fly some distance. But growing in such a small pool, you can't fly.
Flandi was playful and smiled at the little girl and said, "Sean didn't lie, this fish can really fly." ”
"Really, brother, can you make it fly?"
Flandy bent down and, seeing the right moment, grabbed a swimming Xiang with one hand.
"Look carefully, it's going to fly!" After saying that, he gently threw the fish into the air, and the fish suddenly spread its blue wings and glided back into the pool.
