Verse 97 is confused

Shirley breathed a sigh of relief, and from the gentle tone in which the other party spoke, she knew that she should not be beaten today. But she knew right away that something was wrong. What was going on? They could hear Fana's voice too?

"Well, I think so. Fana seemed completely unaware of her situation. Then again, she was a bit of a confused woman.

"So...... You two ......."

"Wait!" shelly cried, "you can hear me...... My sister's words?"

"Of course I can hear you. The twins' expressions were very confused. "Her voice is clear, and we're not deaf. ”

Shirley looked at her sister and then at the twins. The two of them seemed to be more confused than her sister, for they hadn't even noticed Fana talking without moving.

"Wait, don't do that. The previous one of the twins immediately stood up. In her hand, she handed the key to the janitor to the janitor, who handed her the key. "First open the shackles, sit down and talk. ”

......

"Ashrufat bought you for this?"

"Hmm. Shirley nodded as obediently as she could. It was evident that the twins were completely unaware of the silent war, and that Ashrufat must have had a special reason for not telling them. So Shirley changed the whole story, skimming over all the things about Duke Byron, and only the superficial parts of the story, mainly the futures war. Of course, he didn't mention any guarantees, traps, etc., but said that he lost to Ishrufat in futures trading, and finally used fraud in a moment of confusion - and then fell to the point where he is now.

In particular, the twins did not have the attitude they expected at all, but instead came to the door like a guest. After talking for a long time, the two of them were confused and realized that something was wrong with Fana. However, the twins themselves didn't know what was going on, anyway, both Eshurufat and the two of them could hear Fana's words and communicate with her easily.

This was completely unexpected. For a long time, Fana had been unable to communicate with outsiders (her sign language skills were terrible and her learning skills were poor), and even if she wanted to speak, she had to use Shirley as an interpreter. So she was very happy to find a few people who could communicate with her at once, and Shirley even had to secretly remind her of her current situation many times.

"Well, Ashruphat isn't here today. Hoshimi said. "He's gone to the Chamber of Commerce in the city, and I don't think he'll be back until later. But he also said that if there were too many things, he would stay in the city for two or three days. ”

To be honest, for the two new women, the twins' first reaction was to be at a loss. Ashrufat had never told them, and they were not at all prepared for such a thing.

In fact, when a man buys a female slave and comes back (especially the young and beautiful kind), he doesn't know what he wants to do. However, Hoshiki and Hoshimi felt that this matter was not so simple.

"So, hostess, where shall we live?" said Shirley. Everything that should be said has been said, and all the things that should be explained have been explained, since there is no scene of "killing", it is time to turn to the actual problem.

"Ah, this ......" Actually, there are many empty rooms in the castle, but Xingqi can't say it for a while. As mentioned earlier, the castle is clearly divided into two areas, the inner is the master's living area, and the outer is the servants' living area. It felt inappropriate to put the two of them outside in the servants' quarters—because there were two young girls, and the outside was almost all male servants. But if it is placed in the owner's area...... There are other scruples.

"You'd better go to the next room. Hoshimi said. "There's just everything there. ”

"Well, our other ......," Shirley asked again. Their clothes have not been changed because they have been in their cells for a long time. No matter what texture the garment used to be, it was now dirty and torn, and it was hard to see.

"There were some maid's clothes in the cabinet in the next room. Hoshimi said. "You go to the bathroom first, take a shower, and change your clothes. Looks like you guys haven't showered in a long time. ”

Watching the two slave girls leave, Xingke immediately questioned his sister, "Why do you let them live next door? ”

"But for the time being, where can they live?" Hoshimi asked. "It's all the manservants outside...... It wasn't appropriate for the two of them to live there. We didn't ask the maid to come over. ”

Of course, the reason why I didn't ask the maid to come here was for the purpose of secrecy. Generally speaking, the manservant does not dare to intrude into the hostess's living room at will, on the contrary, the maid is much more casual. There was only one maid in the castle—both husband and wife—who worked as a cook and washerwoman.

"By the way, when they came in, I was doing a little experiment...... To be honest, the janitor knocked on the door and almost scared me to death. ”

"What? Isn't that what you should be doing in the basement?"

"We're pretty close to the basement here, so we're able to borrow the gathered dark magic energy here...... I'm sorry, sister, I didn't go to the basement ......"

"So, you weren't found just now, were you?"

"I don't think I found it...... No, I'm sure it wasn't found. But I might be a little out of my temper, and that might raise suspicions. But this shouldn't be too much of a problem. ”

"However, these two women are also a nuisance here, and they have not been found now, but that does not mean that they will not be found in the future. Truth be told, it would be wrong for them to live next door. ”

"Wait for Ashruphat to come back. When we get back, we ask him what he's going to do, and then we'll be able to deal with it. Half a day should be fine. By the way, sister, I just discovered a new thing in the experiment, which is completely different from what we used to estimate. Perhaps this explains what the Dark Arts can do to human sanity......"

"Wait a minute. Xingke looked at the door. The sister had told her about the janitor's sudden incoming, so she went to the door of the room and closed it again, so that the two sisters could discuss the matter carefully. The soundproofing of this room is actually very good, the twins have tested it, even if the people inside speak loudly, the people outside can't hear clearly.

It must be said that this new phenomenon that Hoshimi discovered in today's trial is really very attractive. The two men discussed this in detail, first proposing various possibilities and then overturning them one by one. As Aunt Mary said, twins are really natural scholars with a great interest and enthusiasm for research. They lost track of time as they discussed, and in fact it wasn't until they had discussed all the possibilities and sorted out what to do next, that they realized that it was completely dark outside.

As mentioned earlier, they have a magic lamp. It was the lamp that made them ignore the change in light outside the window.

"Oops, Ashrufat is coming back soon, and our dinner hasn't been prepared yet. Only then did Xingke realize that there was a problem with time. In order to conduct their research on the dark arts safely, they had to fend for themselves. In addition to washing clothes that can be delivered to the kitchen outside, they do the tidying, cleaning and cooking of the room by themselves.

In fact, both sisters know that they cook badly. Their level of cooking is that they can eat – and they just eat. I don't know what Lu Dao is for, the two of them are very talented in research, but in terms of housework, they are completely opposite. To make matters worse, Ashrufat is a good cook. Every time he smiled and tasted the work of the star carving, the twins always felt quite unhappy. In fact, they could all see that Ashrufat ate very little, maybe even a symbolic taste.

"By the way, dinner! Hoshimi, you come and help me, we'll get things ready as soon as possible. By the way, where's the apron?"

"Over in the kitchen, let's hurry up. ”

They opened the door and walked towards the kitchen and dining room, which were connected. It was already quite dark by this time, so they held the magic lamp in their hands.

"Why is there a light in the kitchen?" the twins glanced at each other and walked slightly warily towards the kitchen. To put it mildly, the twin sisters, after some academic research, had completely forgotten that there were two other women here.

They slowly approached the door of the dining room kitchen, and they smelled the scent. It's a common kitchen flavor that is a blend of common spices and spices like garlic, fennel, onion, and more. In addition to these smells, there is also a strong smell of braised pork. They didn't like the smell, because it was too late and they were all hungry.

At that table, a lit candlestick was already placed in the center of the table. Although the light of the candelabra was nowhere near as bright as the magic lamp in their hands, it at least allowed them to see the setting of the table: a few plates of braised meat, fish, vegetables, and a pot of lentil soup. On a plate in the middle is a clever stack of colorful fruits, with a leaf of cabbage underneath the fruit.

A young girl dressed in a maid's costume stepped out of it. She held a small basin with just the right amount of fresh bread baked. The bread is coated with cream.

"Ah, ladies, here you are. A young girl in a maid's uniform greeted them. But if you look closely, you can see that her lips didn't move at all when she spoke.

Although the twins had forgotten all about her before entering the door, when they saw her, they immediately remembered the two slave girls that Ashrufat had bought. The twins had the two slave girls go to the shower and change their clothes, and then they had left the matter behind them altogether and studied their academic issues carefully.

"This ......" Hoshimi pointed to the dining table, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Ah, these...... I'm sorry, ma'am. I saw that there were a lot of ingredients here, so I made a few dishes. Did I make it too early? But the temperature should be just right now...... It must taste good......"

"No, nothing. Xingke reacted quickly. They came to the table. On the dining table there are already two cutlery. Once they were seated, Fana brought them the last dish, a hot and sour fish soup - the smell alone whetted the appetite. The dishes on this table can be described as dazzling and colorful, which makes the twins a little dazed and feel very uncomfortable for a while.

"For what...... Only two sets of cutlery?" Xingke asked after a moment's pause.

"Because Lord Ashruphat doesn't seem to be coming back for dinner today. Fana replied in a natural voice.

"What about yours, then?"

"Ah, this...... Shirley says we can't sit at the same table with you. Fana also seemed confused by this. "As for what it is, I don't know much. To be honest, I know I'm not very smart, but since Shirley said it, it should be true. She said we just had to eat leftovers. But with so many dishes, it shouldn't matter. ”
