Chapter 9: Dinner

Time is immersed in each other, and they keep the activity bright at night. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Then after the sun went down, it was only a moment before I fell asleep in anticipation of the next day's brunch.

Mrs. Cabas went downstairs early to the dining-room of the part-time reception room, and hummed an unknown tune that she had heard from a distant place in her youth, opened the cupboard that had been sealed in dust for a long time, and carefully removed the last traces of the manor that could still be touched by the nobles—some clay-colored clay plates, and some copper cutlery. Although the style is very rustic, the color is not good-looking, and there are some cracks on the edges, but this one is glazed.

There is no need to clean up, although it has not been used, and wiping it once a day has long become the daily routine of the Lordess, but she can't help frowning. There are only eight sets of utensils in total, myself, Alice, Lu Sien, and six noble knight ladies, a total of nine people.

Forget it, I'll just use the old wooden plate. Alas, it was a little aggrieved to think about it, but when she thought of the beautiful silks in the room, the lady couldn't help but smile.

However, the development of events was still beyond the Lord's expectations, and after taking a seat at the table where she had set the table herself, she was surprised to find that the old butler and the maid and the cook were preparing to serve the dinner tonight.

Before I could ask, oh, what did I see, a small food cart full of plates was pushed out by the cook, although I did not know what was prepared, at a glance, the silver plate lid dazzled the eyes of the lady, and the fruit basket, which contained apples, grapes, and a small black fruit (olive) that I had never seen. Since I came here, I haven't seen this thing for many years, except for the occasional wild fruit that the mountain people worship?

Where can a craftsman take the trouble to make such intimate little plates, a pair of deep dishes in the shape of a swan with a curved neck, one filled with cream and the other filled with honey.

"Hmm, this ......" the maid hesitated as she stood with a light portion of cutlery.

"Well, it's okay, let's just use this, so be it, date pits, you add another spoon to everyone, a small bowl, um, and a wine glass, well, Alice doesn't need it. Lu Sien casually ordered, and after seeing the slightly embarrassed wooden plate in front of Mrs. Cabas, "Well, change the one in front of my mother." ”

Under Mrs. Cabas's somewhat surprised gaze, the jujube kernel took away the humble wooden plate and wooden fork in front of her. It was replaced with a set of snow-white porcelain embroidered with glazed branches and green leaves, a spoon of sterling silver, and a crystal goblet (actually glass).

Naturally, Mrs. Cabas was moved to tears...... The Lordess is going to blow up, okay, you Lu Sien, you are going to heaven.

It's just that it's too late to have a seizure, or it's a time when you don't know how to have a seizure.

The butler brought the first dish, and while lifting the lid, he introduced to everyone, mainly to Lu Sien: "Today the farmers brought fresh fish, and Carly made it into sashimi. Then I carefully divided two-thirds of them into nine portions and placed them on everyone's plate as a starter, not too much, but always according to your needs.

Then a snow-white porcelain basin in Lu Sien's opinion was actually a clay pot that was brought up by the housekeeper and the cook, and the old butler's old waist couldn't afford the weight of this pot. Before she even noticed the contents, Madame fell in love with the little man with a big tree, pointed ears, and butterfly wings. The old butler's rare old face turned red, and he took out a handkerchief that had just come from the maid and wiped his forehead, which was not stained with sweat, and lifted the lid again.

"This is the stewed soup of beef and vegetables brought by the young master, as well as the mountain mushrooms sent by the farmers......"

"Hmm~~~~~~" followed the fragrance that spread, and couldn't help but inhale, including Madame, Alice, and the knights. Well, in fact, Lu Sien also gasped, but it was not so obvious.

This taste, with spices added here, a lot of spices, yes, yes! It's just the flowing gold that God has given us, Lu Sien is really my little angel. I had never enjoyed it, but the Lady was all too familiar with the taste, and didn't Lord Cabas just rely on a bag of spices to make his home and then marry her.

As usual, the butler once again added a spoonful of stew, a few vegetables, and two pieces of beef to everyone's bowls, seven points full, no more, no less. At this time, the jujube pits that had been put back into the tableware also began to help.

Then came the side dish, and when the huge plate was revealed, the bread that looked neat had already been cut several times in equal parts, and it was white bread, not to mention the thick layer of cheese on top of it. You don't have to divide this, you can take what you need.

Without pause, the main course was grandly introduced, and the whole roast beef was filled with flavor that made everyone present shine in their eyes because of the generous amount of seasoning and careful cooking. There are also a few small, oh, also sent by the hunters who returned today with the fresh fish, good things.

While the butler was meticulously helping everyone cut the meat, the jujube pit picked up the thin-necked wine jug at this moment, and the red wine, known as the blood of the gods, filled one-third of the goblet. The Lady couldn't wait to take the cup in front of her, sniffed it deeply, and quietly glanced at the knights and Lu Sien, and then pretended to move her fingers quietly to change the gesture of holding the cup.

It doesn't seem appropriate to describe a mother of three as stupid, so I say the Duchess is clumsy and cute at the moment.

The Duchess did not know much about red wine, and she had drunk some ale from a wooden wine glass a long, long time ago, and she could not tell whether it was good or bad, and what fascinated her was only the dreaminess of a scene that she had never dared to imagine. However, to be honest, although the bare bottle of red wine that Lu Sien took out did not indicate the logo or name of a famous wine estate, and even if there was, it was Pande's, and no one here knew the goods.

But in Lu Sien's case, the imperial standard is genuine.

Everyone raised their glasses, plus the soup bowl that Alice raised with both hands.

"Grateful for the gift of Her Highness Yutamia!" the Lady and Little Lori were dumbfounded, and Lu Sien and the knights spoke in unison, and Lu Sien's arm hung down.

"I wish Your Excellency the Grand Master good luck and prosperity, and the Knights will move forward bravely!" the knights spoke again, and Lu Sien smiled.

It was supposed to be over at this time, Lu Sien stood up again, his mellow gaze echoed everyone present, and Gu Pan attracted everyone's attention.

"May my family be safe and healthy!"

Actuate!

"Brother, what's that?"

"That's honey, it's very sweet, Alice, do you want to try it?"

"Hmm!"

"Here you go, spread it on the bread!"

"Good times!"

......

"Brother, what's in the basket?"

"The big man is apples, the bunches are grapes, and the little man is olives. ”

"I want grapes!"

"Eh, don't, you just swallowed the honey......"

"No, I want to!"

"Okay, okay, don't blame me for not reminding you, give!"

"Ouch, it's sour, it's sour. A little face wrinkled.

"Hahaha, look, look!"

"Brother, you're bad, hateful, hateful!"

"Hurry up and get some soup!"

"Suck ~ Suck ~ "

......

Hmm, a moment of silence for the weeping bacon in the corner.

"Alice, didn't I tell you that you are not allowed to speak when you have something in your mouth, and you are not allowed to make a sound when you drink soup!" the Duchess decided to enhance her somewhat thin presence.

"Hmm~" Alice's expression suddenly became timid.

"Ouch, mother, it's okay......" Lu Sien was still unconsciously spoiled.

"Shut up, eat quietly!" the mother's outburst instantly made Lu Sien tighten his neck.

"Oh. Quietly looking around, the knights suppressed their serious expressions, but the corners of their mouths were a little teasing. The villain looked aggrieved and picked up the rice in his mouth, but as long as his eyes were a pair of Lu Sien, he instantly had a bright smile, and then turned into a timid pouting under the majestic gaze of his mother.

Alas, it's fine anyway.
