Chapter 38: The Night Before the Test
While Serena and the others were cooking a meal, Mei Yi returned with Rose and Loloki. Xingchen and Serena helped Melok unload the luggage from the carriage, and when Serena and Loloki met, Loloki smiled and said, "Hello." β
Serena's face flushed with shame all at once. She knew very well in her heart that Siye had lived in the temple of the town for so long, and she must have told Luo Luoqi about the eldest princess's engagement to her and Meiyi. She said "hello" and fled in a panic.
During the meal, Luo Luoqi looked at the beautiful dining room and the exquisite tableware and tablecloths, and pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Okay, Mei Luke and I are here, so let's live in a small dilapidated building." When a friend came, he bought a beautiful house. β
Mei Yi smiled: "When you came, I was still a teacher, so I had to abide by the school rules." Now I'm not a teacher, and I'm not a student. As an idle person in society, it doesn't hurt to bet on two. I'll take you over as soon as possible, so don't complain. β
Luo Luoqi was wearing the red and white checkered robe, still looking lazy and charming. She looked at Liuxi and Serena carefully, Liuxi and Serena didn't dare to look her eyes, they just buried their heads in eating, and the atmosphere in the restaurant became a little weird for a while.
After eating, Loloki and Rose stayed to clean up the dishes, and the rest of the group went back to their rooms to rest and prepare for tomorrow's psychic test. Selina lay in the warm bed, looking out the window at the dark clouds gathering in the sky, sleepiness hit, and fell asleep peacefully.
It wasn't until it was nearly late that Serena was awakened by the thunder and the thud of rain on the glass. She rubbed her eyes, put on her newly pleated dress, and went downstairs to find Mei Yi and Mei Lu talking and laughing together preparing dinner.
The table was already full of delicious food, and it was obvious that it was all made by Meiyi alone. Mei Lu Ke sat on the chair, her head resting on the back of the chair, and looked at Mei Yi quietly. Every time Meiyi asked her to taste it, she obediently opened her mouth and said it was delicious.
Serena leaned against the wall, quietly watching this scene, and her heart was about to be warmed.
After cooking, Mei Yi checked the food on the table and shook her head: "This era is really poor, so I can only make these things." Next, when they wake up, we can eat. β
Rose suddenly exclaimed, "Brother, your hair has grown!" β
Mei Yi looked at the basin for a long time and said, "It's a little long." He picked up a pair of scissors casually, pointed to the basin and tried to cut his hair, and complained in his mouth: "My God, there are no mirrors in this era, how do those elves and goblins cut their hair and shave?" I admire them. β
Serena immediately understood how Meiyi's usual dog-gnawed hairstyle came from, she hurriedly strode up, snatched the scissors from Meiyi's hand, and said with a smile: "Because we never give ourselves a haircut, but hire a barber." Don't move, I'll cut it for you! β
Mei Yi said nervously: "You can't take revenge for personal gain!" β
Serena said, "Then don't remind me. β
Mei Yi let Serena fiddle with her hair, and a strange feeling came from her body. He looked at Serena's serious and focused appearance, and he felt strange in his heart. Serena said as she cut it, "You have to feel honored, I have only given haircuts to Madame, Eldest Lady and Second Lady. β
Mei Yi smiled: "I am deeply honored. β
Rose heard Loloki call her name at the top of the stairs and went upstairs. On the first floor, only Meiyi and Serena were left. Serena was very sharp with her hands and feet, and after a while, she gave Mei Yi a haircut, "Okay." Why don't you know to ask for help? β
Mei Yi smiled: "I'm not out of money." By the way, Serena, how are you practicing spirituality? I know Ms. Kritia very well, and she must have thought you could, so she wrote you a letter of recommendation. β
Serena thought for a moment and said, "I don't know, I've never played against my classmates. β
She was telling the truth.
Mei Yi was silent for a while before saying, "Anyway, let's have fun playing with the true spirit for a while after the test is over tomorrow, and don't worry about the test results." You're a great knight, so don't get too attached to being a psychic......"
To Meiyi's surprise, Serena didn't get angry, she just whispered, "Wait until the test is over tomorrow, okay?" I promise you that I won't take this matter to heart again. β
Mei Yi nodded, thought about it and said, "By the way, don't believe in those panacea......"
Serena tried her best to suppress her temper and squeezed out a smile: "Got it! I'll just do that stupid thing once, and you're going to stop revealing my scars, okay? β
There was a hint of shyness, coquettishness and sweetness in her impatient voice, and even her own was taken aback.
* * *
It was all dark, and Loloki took out a round glass ball and shook it, and the soft light suddenly filled the entire dining roomβthis thing was something similar to an electric light developed by a light psychic and was very expensive. Mei Yi had only seen it in the school library and the Flower Spirit Theater before.
Before eating, Mei Yi brought a plate of vegetables and fruits with noodles to Liuxi alone, and Liuxi tasted it and said happily: "Brother Meiyi, the sauce on this noodle is delicious, what is it made of?" β
Mei Yi said: "It's made with egg yolks, olive oil and lemon juice, so feel free to eat it." β
For the special treatment of Meiyi convection tide, everyone does not care. The elves eat differently from elves and humans, eating only vegetarian foods such as fruits and vegetables, eggs, milk, and egg dairy products, and no meat.
Serena was eating Meiyi's cooking for the first time, and as soon as she tasted it, she was shocked and looked at Meiyi in disbelief.
You know, there was no concept of gastronomy in this era. The aristocratic banquet is nothing more than a variety of meat barbecue, accompanied by some bread, fruit, salad and shoddy ale and fruit wine, which is really unappetizing.
The honey-glazed grilled chicken thighs, sweet and sour tenderloin, pan-fried steak, steamed sea fish, pineapple and shrimp balls, shredded bananas, fried vegetable boxes, steamed sweet potatoes and tomato egg noodles made by Meiyi in front of me are many times better than the meals at aristocratic banquets.
Luo Luoqi tasted it and sighed: "Meiyi, I can guarantee that there must be many girls in this world who are willing to marry you just by virtue of your cooking skills." If I had been a few years younger, I might have been. β
When Mei Yi heard this, she immediately burst into tears: "Sister Luo Luoqi, do you know how this cooking skill is honed?" It's because I'm a single dog for 10,000 years...... Also, clergy don't say things that mislead people, okay? β
Luo Luoqi and Serena are used to Mei Yi's strange words coming up often, and they can roughly understand what he means. Luo Luoqi looked at Selena and Liuxi, who were blushing, and thought: Do you know why you are still single? Woody! These two girls around you are very affectionate to you, can't you coax them?
