"Ladies and gentlemen, hurry up and dress yourself, the young master is back, we need to dress up to greet him...... Mrs. Murray, you tell the maids to prepare, and the first thing the young master does when he comes back is to wash, and the water temperature is not too hot or too cold, so as not to make any mistakes...... Mrs. Abi, the kitchen needs to be adjusted to prepare the young master's favorite dishes......"

Carson, the gray-haired butler, wearing a pair of reading glasses, walked through the castle corridors, his voice not loud, but his deep baritone voice could be delivered to every servant just right.

Including the kitchen that is on the go.

"Is the young master back, great, can I add dinner tonight, I want to eat a cream pudding."

"Don't just think about eating, Daisy, do what you do, and don't give me a chance to scold you."

"Yes, I'll do it, Mrs. Abi."

"Old lady's avocado egg salad, do you need to sprinkle rosemary?"

"How many times have I told you that the old lady doesn't like to put rosemary in a salad. Old Loew, you are now a cook in the castle of the Imperial Barons, not a tavern in the bazaar! It is your duty to remember every taste of the old lady and the old man! ”

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Mrs. Abi, please forgive me this time, I'll remember it."

"The young master only comes back every year on the old lady's birthday and New Year's Day, and now there are seven months left before the New Year's Festival, Mrs. Abi, do you know why?"

"Butterfly Castle is the young master's home, the young master can come back whenever he wants, remember his identity, servant, don't figure out the thoughts of the nobles...... Philip, go get rid of the swill, Philip, Philip, damn it, this bastard must be hiding somewhere to smoke again, I'm going to deduct his wages! ”

Compared with the noise of the kitchen, in front of the main gate of the castle, the butler Carson and the housekeeper Murray were lined up in two teams with male and female servants to greet Aldington.

The master has traveled home, and the servant must greet him.

Even the two hostesses of the Butterfly Castle came out and stood at the gate, waiting for their grandson and son to return, except for the Baron, sitting on the sofa in the living room and reading the newspaper, as if indifferent to his son's return.

A moment later.

Surrounded by the patrol, Aldington, riding red beans, had already entered the castle, and beyond the gate of the city wall was a green lawn, and a wide road paved with fine cobblestones led directly to the castle gate.

He turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to the groom, then took a deep breath, changed into a decent and kind smile according to the knowledge taught in the book "The Self-cultivation of Actors", and walked briskly to the two noble ladies in front of the gate: "Grandmother, mother, I am back. ”

The old lady immediately grabbed Aldington's arm: "My little irise, come over and let grandma see, it's not easy to see you, is it an unexpected surprise for grandma today?" ”

She was Aldington's grandmother and Baron Aurenor's mother, Carly Greenleaf, born to the Earl of Amiens - the Greenleaf Mang.

Another middle-aged lady is the Baroness and Aldington's mother, Helena Eagle Strike Sky, born in the Eagle Strike City Earl - Eagle Strike Sky family.

Lady Helena glanced at her son with satisfaction, and then pointed to the swallowtail flag that was being carried behind her: "Mother, what is even more surprising is that Aldington has become a midshipman. ”

When Mrs. Carly saw the fluttering flag, she was pleasantly surprised: "Oh, swallowtail flag, I know that our little iris is as good as his father...... Captain Wilson, please take this swallowtail down and let me take a closer look. ”

"As you wish, old lady."

Immediately, a patrol soldier put down the swallow-tailed flag, removed the flag made of cloth, and handed it to Old Lady Carly.

The old lady rubbed the cloth, looked at the iris logo on it, and smiled as if going back to twenty years ago, when Baron Aurenor was also like Aldington today, just promoted to midship-knight, and got a swallow-tailed flag embroidered with irises: "Is this the swallow-tailed flag given to you by Lord Bomber, or Lord Viscount?" ”

"It was a gift from Lord Bomber." Aldington replied with a smile.

Old Lady Carly nodded noncommittally.

Lady Helena said, "Lord Bomber has a heart...... Captain Wilson, tomorrow morning, replace an iris square flag with it, and I'm going to have this swallow-tailed flag fly over Butterfly Castle. ”

"As you wish, ma'am."

Wait for the two ladies to finish admiring the swallow-tailed flag.

The male and female butlers then took the servants to salute Aldington, who had no aristocrats, and a good aristocratic education allowed him to maintain an equal attitude towards anyone: "Mr. Carson, Mrs. Murray, ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your welcome. ”

"Young Master, the servants have prepared the bathroom for you." Carson, the butler, said meticulously.

"Well, let's go take a shower." Aldington said casually, helped his grandmother into the castle living room, helped her to the sofa and sat down, and then said to his father, who had already put down the newspaper, "Father, I am back, and I was promoted to midshipman the day before yesterday, and Sir asked me to greet you on his behalf." ”

"Thank you Viscount Dulick for your greetings, and don't forget to bring my hello when you get back."

"Yes."

O'Reno didn't seem to be excited at all, and after a few simple greetings, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go take a bath." ”

"Then I'll go up first."

Aldington also doesn't want to continue to talk awkwardly with his "father", no matter how much he inherits the memory of the original owner, no matter how familiar he reads "The Self-cultivation of Actors", this kind of occasion is still awkward.

The bathroom is on the second floor.

There is a maid in the bathroom to greet you, of course, the Plantagenet Kingdom is not popular for maids to go into the water to help the master bathe, just provide services such as undressing, handing soap, heating water, etc.

After taking a shower and changing into his usual home clothes, Aldington did not immediately return to the living room, but walked around the corridors of the castle at will.

There are magic nets in the city that provide magic lighting, and Butterfly Castle also has small magic nets that provide magic lighting for the castle. And this set of small magic nets is not only expensive, but also the daily energy consumption is also a huge number. If it is an ordinary small castle, it is estimated that it is still lit with primitive oil lamps.

Even the Butterfly Fort often keeps only a few magic lamps after dark.

Aldington came back today, so the lights in most of the rooms and corridors were turned on, and he slowly admired the oil paintings hanging on the walls.

Suddenly, outside the castle not far away, a wolf howl sounded.

He walked to the window and looked out of the grass behind the castle, in the moonlight, a huge silver wolf could be seen. The giant wolf was lying on the ground with three cubs and were feeding. The three little wolf cubs are said to be small, but in fact each of them is bigger than a wolfdog.

"Hawke......" Aldington whispered the wolf's name.
