To Xia Ming's surprise, as night approached, Miss Greon personally invited them. This made Xia Ming have to go to their dinner party.

On the way, Xia Ming asked tentatively: "I heard Miss Sarah say that the master is not there." ”

Then the girl leaned into his ear and whispered to him, "Mr. Herrick, you speak the lingua franca really well. ”

Xia Ming's heart tightened.

"I think you're here because of my father. ”

Xia Ming stopped in shock. Although the territory has a standard common language, the accents of the people are more or less different. Xia Ming is not a member of the Qiutu tribe, and it is even more difficult to imitate the accent of the Qiutu tribe. The loophole is that Rand's mother is from the Qiutu tribe, and Rand imitates it a little bit, and he sharpens his gun in battle, and the difference is different from Rand's. And they play the role of relatives, and the difference between siblings is not too big.

He was amazed at the woman's carefulness to be her servant, but he didn't care about them. Now that their identities have been revealed, the question is, they may be kicked out.

Yudo took him by the hand, pulled him forward, and said, "Don't stop, don't let people see it." Actually, I saw you at first sight. ”

Xia Ming said embarrassedly: "Miss You Duo is really discerning. ”

"I've never seen anyone as strange as you, your relatives," she said, referring to Rand, "you don't want to look like you at all, you're not brothers at all." ”

Xia Ming said: "What else do you know? ”

Yudo said, "I also know that you are smaller than me, and your face may be fake." ”

Xia Ming squeezed out a smile, did not admit it or deny it, but it was undeniable that this girl was very powerful.

Xia Ming said, "I'm sorry, about your father.."

He didn't have a chance to ask, because at this moment, a burly man came up to him, if it weren't for the fact that his face still looked very young, Xia Ming might have thought that he was the owner of this ranch.

"These two are friends from the hills. He held out his hand to Xia Ming, "My name is Hope Green, and I'm Yudo's eldest brother. ”

"Amin Herrick. Yudo let go of his hand.

"You are friends of Green's Ranch, not servants, and you need not be inhibited. He said very kindly.

Xia Ming walked side by side with him, and said in the tone of the Chund Clan, "It's an honor to have Grien's friendship, but we must trade our labor for food." ”

"You don't have to say that to me, little brother. But you have to be careful when you meet my brother Fanxi, he is sometimes very cautious. Hope said, "My father is gone, and now the family is supported by my mother, and my mother is kind to you, so you can rest assured." ”

Still in the distance, Xia Ming saw the building called the manor. Outside the manor is an elaborate fence, and they follow a planked path while admiring the surrounding gardens.

At this moment, a number of busy servants can be seen tending to the manor, and at the center of the manor is a house made of stone and wood. This is completely personal property, and although the house where Xia Ming lives is made of the same materials, it does not belong to him and the people who live in it. Although sparsely populated, the Sanam region is indeed one of the wealthiest places in the territory.

It is also for this reason that the trading houses are not developed here, and the things they need to exchange or buy are very scarce. One of their ranches is the equivalent of a shrunken territory, and these enclosed areas have been in operation for at least eight hundred years.

The manor is very chic, with trees and flowers trimmed into all sorts of eye-catching shapes, so it's no wonder that Yudo Greon looks like a fairytale princess, she really lives in a fairytale castle.

The dining room was brightly lit, and Xia Ming heard the rumbling sound of a train coming from behind the manor, and the rectangular table covered with a white tablecloth was only symbolically burning with three candles, and the whole dining room was as bright as day, and the crystal on the ceiling emitted a bright light, which was the heat of the electric current passing through the tungsten filament. The territory does not have the technology to store electrical energy, and the filaments will only light up when the motor is turning, and those filaments are also quite precious materials in the territory, just like when the train is running, when the light bulbs in the room shine, it is equivalent to taking a lot of money to light a fire. Unless it is a territorial agency or a knight noble, the commoners will never be able to afford such luxury.

He wondered if it was necessary for his host's family to entertain guests like them, who were not friends, when they had already reached the table.

As the kitchen servant brought the tray covered with a metal lid, Yudo said, "Sit down next to me." Tonight, my father's friends came over, and my mother was still narrating with them in the living room. ”

Xia Ming said, "No, we are sitting in the far corner on the right. ”

Eudora pulled him and said, "That's right, this table is actually too long, if you sit there, how will you eat then?" ”

Xia Ming was pushed to a seat.

"Yudo. Then a stern-sounding voice said, "Go and invite your mother and the guests over to dinner, and don't be playful." ”

"Just give it to your servant. Yudo pouted.

"This guest is unusual, he is not only a friend of my father, but also a chief, and you must go and invite them over. The man said.

Compared to the strong and burly Hope Grien, this taller but thinner person, not as friendly as Hope seems, should be Hope's younger brother, Yudo's second brother, Fansi Grien. When Fanxi looked at Xia Ming and the two, Xia Ming made a bow when the Qiu Tu clan greeted him. He looked at the two of them with something in his eyes, but he didn't know what he wanted to say.

Maybe it was a look of disgust, after all, they came from the same as beggars who came to beg for food, but because of the presence of distinguished guests, he swallowed all the words in his stomach.

"Take care of yourselves, I'll go and ask my mother to come over. Yudo departed happily.

With two empty positions, Fanxi sat opposite Xia Ming, with the coldness and hardness of a servant's face on his face, and he didn't even want to look at them.

Rand leaned over quietly, "Boss, I'm so hungry, do you think there will be meat in this lid?"

They had not eaten for almost a day, and at noon they threw away all their appetite in order to clean up the excrement of the flock. But even if you eat it, I'm afraid you'll spit it all out.

Xia Ming said: "Don't just remember to eat, their guests may not be simple, don't show any horses' feet, and say a few words of Qiutu dialect to them when necessary." ”

Rand said, "I understand, I understand. ”

Fanxi stared at them and whispered like a teacher staring at a deserted student when he was a child, Xia Ming smiled at him, looking very polite, but he secretly laughed in his heart.

After Xia Ming and Rand had finished talking, they both sat up straight, and Hope came over with a heavy porcelain container, poured a glass for each of them, said that it was the servant's fresh goat's milk, and let them taste it first, and said that if they were willing to stay there and work, the work would be left to them to do later.

Xia Ming was stunned when he heard this, but Rand readily agreed. He pretended to say thank you and other words of gratitude in the Qiutu language.

Hope was also very happy to hear this, and called Rand brother and brother, and said that my sister likes your brother more, and I like you more like this kid. Xia Ming didn't dare to say more in front of others, so as not to reveal any flaws.

"Apu quickly took the two friends to their seats. ”

"Yes, Mother. Hope Greon moved the chair he had prepared.

Xia Ming saw a chubby chief with a round black hat and a very elegant lady walking hand in hand, followed by Mrs. Green. She was older, and the fat deposits made her look old and fat. For some reason, Xia Ming always felt that the kind mother that Hope was talking about didn't seem very happy at the moment. But the smile on her face was still bright, and she seemed to be honored by the arrival of these two.

"These two are..." The fat chief suddenly saw Xia Ming and Lante, who were sitting on the side, dressed strangely, and asked in surprise. They had just drunk goat's milk, and Rand, especially Xia Ming's lips, had white milk marks on those two strange beards.

"These two are two travelers who have been lost with their relatives and taken in by the little sister-in-law, and they have been helping to take care of the manor for a day, and they have not eaten anything yet. ”

"Tashi Delek. Xia Ming and Rand hurriedly stood up and bowed.

"These two..." "It's all Mr. Herrick, and now they're my friends, not your servants." ”

"Sister Yudo, I have long regarded the two Mr. Herricks as friends, and I am afraid that you have called them as servants. Hope pointed to Yudo's face and said as if debunked.

"Alright, let's start dinner quickly. Mrs. Greon then walked up to the main seat, greeted Xia Ming slightly, and then said to their friend, "Mr. Greene, Mrs. Greene, please do not dislike our poor hospitality. ”

The fat chief responded politely, "It's our interruption that caused you trouble." ”

The servants came up, lifted the lid from the table, and first poured red wine for the two friends. Naturally, there will be no less land, but even Xia Ming feels that he can't wait. There was no such thing as the rare meat on the plate, but the poultry was also tender, as well as sautéed greens and plenty of dairy products.

No wonder the maid Sarah told them that they collect about six buckets of fresh goat's milk every day.

As he began to eat, Yudo whispered to him, "Don't you Qiutu people like to eat dairy products the most, and this is cheese that I made myself." ”

Xia Ming very gentlemanly cut a piece and put it in his mouth, and praised: "It tastes really good." ”

It was really good, with that glass of red and sweet wine, if it weren't for the polite Qiu Tu clan, he would have brought the whole plate a long time ago, because every time he had to stretch his hand out, it was really inconvenient.

"I tasted this wine, it was made from grapes, and I went with my servants to pick it at the August equinox last year. ”

Xia Ming said, "It's a little sweet. ”

Yudo said, "You don't like sweet?"

...

Strange to say, except for You Duo and Xia Ming talking in a whisper, they only heard the sound of the motor box turning. Mrs. Green, as the master, did not take the initiative to find something to talk about at the moment, and the fat chief brought his wife just in case of this kind of problem, knowing that women have a lot to talk about. But at the moment, everyone was eating dinner in silence, and a strange atmosphere surrounded the restaurant.

The fat chief wanted to break the atmosphere, and suddenly found a saying, "I heard that the eldest prince of Greon already has a girlfriend...", he looked at him and said, "Why didn't you invite her over?" ”

Hope Green, who originally seemed to be cheerful and lively, suddenly became quiet at this moment, and even lowered his head.

Xia Ming wanted to ask, but at the dinner table, he didn't know if You Duo was willing to tell him.

"Girlfriend. At this time, Fanxi, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke, "Who dares to be the girlfriend of the Griens, she has long been scared away." ”

"You are all liars, and only fools will be fooled."
