Wright City, Baron Lacey's house.
There are very few nobles in Will City. The so-called nobles are divided into real nobles with fiefs and nobles without fiefs.
Field nobility is a golden sign, the tumbler of the empire, like the Marquis of Kent.
And the nobles without fiefs may also go downhill. The destitute nobles may only have empty titles, family crests, and their former glory.
But Baron Lacey has always been a powerful noble in Will City. This family has always been entrenched in Will City, and has great influence in the political, business, and aristocratic circles.
Linda worked as a tutor in Baron Lacey's house, mainly responsible for educating Baron Lacey's eldest son, Liz Lacey.
However, Linda's education did not play a role. The baron's eldest son, Li Si, was a rogue and a pervert. At the age of eleven, he had already impregnated a maid in the family. In order to avoid shame for the family, Baron Lacey, who was in his fifties, issued a ban and dealt with the pregnant maid.
Baron Lacey's villa is very large. The main body of the villa is built with natural blue stone blocks transported from the mountain. The surface is painted with a layer of white paint. The roof tiles are reddish yellow. The whole is very stylish.
In addition to the main body of the villa, the villa also consists of a longhouse for servants, supporting stables, a huge garden, a tall fence, and a grand gate.
In the afternoon, the sun slanted westward and gradually leveled with the horizon. Although the sun is about to disappear, the temperature is still high.
Linda walked out of the gate of the villa, wearing a blue cap on her head, a small black suit on her upper body, and a knee-length hip-pack skirt of the same color on her lower body, revealing her sturdy calves, and at the end of her calves is a pair of Red Gauguin shoes. Ahead is a road paved with blue stone slabs. Linda stepped on high heels and walked towards the door.
The tall doorman bowed to Linda who walked out of the door. With a reserved smile, Linda stepped on her Gauguin shoes and headed home.
Lacey's is on the same street as Russell's. Linda soon returned to Russell's house. She found the key from a hidden location near the door and planned to open the door, but found that the door was unlocked.
Linda looked surprised, put the key back where she was, then opened the door, picked up red slippers from the shoe cabinet, bent down, took off her high heels, put on slippers and walked in.
She soon saw the bottle of red wine from Vail in the living room, and a large slaughtered chicken in the kitchen. The chicken was still within the normal range, and Linda's body stiffened when she saw the bottle of red wine.
Linda is an aristocrat, but since the death of her parents, her family is in dire straits.She is diligent and thrifty, trying to keep the family happy every day. For the first time in so many years, I saw a full bottle of Ville red wine at home. Ville is an area known for producing the best grapes in the empire, and Ville's grapes are well known for the wines made throughout the Van Gogh empire.
Vail produces top wines at astronomical prices. The cheapest, also requires a gold coin.
And her monthly salary is less than a gold coin.
Linda rubbed her eyes in disbelief , then stepped forward and bent over to pick up the wine, and observed it carefully, but she still didn't believe in evil. She tried to open the wine with a corkscrew, but hesitated again.
"Who bought the wine??" Linda exclaimed.The door is open, there must be a living person in the house.
"I bought it." Colin replied cheerfully, lying in the bedroom on the second floor.
"Real wine or fake wine?" Linda showed blue veins on her forehead, her emotions gradually becoming uncontrollable system.
"Really." Colin replied cheerfully.
"You bastard." Linda's hands trembled, almost breaking the expensive bottle of wine, then she searched around, found a shovel in the kitchen, and strode to the second floor. Violently pushed open the door of Colin's bedroom, looking at Colin lying flat on the bed with a comfortable expression on his face, he was even more angry and rushed over with a shovel.
"Sister, listen to my explanation." Seeing that the situation was not good, Colin immediately hugged his head and ran away.
"I'll listen to your explanation after the fight." Linda was aggressive, and the shovel in her hand slapped Colin in a storm. Colin didn't dare to resist.
After a meal of shovel money for Colin, Linda sat panting on the chair in front of the desk holding the shovel, stared at Colin, and said angrily: "Explain it."
Of course Colin's rough skin was not injured. Not angry either. Sitting cross-legged on the bed, he smiled and said: "The teacher knows that our family is very poor, so he gave me some gold coins as a subsidy every month."
Linda was stunned for a while, and then she realized that the teacher was referring to the great and wise magician. But this teacher not only accepts apprentices, but also gives money? Immediately, she let out a growl.
"So you went and bought a bottle of wine from Vail?"
"Yeah." Colin said with a smirk.
"You bastard." Linda scolded with a heartache, and slapped Colin on the forehead with a shovel. After she calmed down, she asked carefully, "How much?"
"A gold coin." Colin said nonchalantly. Seeing Linda's cautious appearance, he was very happy and distressed. "Although it's good to buy good things for a while, the crit on this sister seems to be a bit big."
"You prodigal son." Linda touched her forehead with her hands feebly, she was exhausted. In an instant, she had the idea of sending the wine back, but she quickly extinguished the idea. It would be disgraceful to do that. No matter how poor the Russell family is, they are nobles. How could they buy wine and send it back?
Linda immediately thought of another question, frowned and asked: "The wise and great magician accepts you as an apprentice and gives you gold coins as a subsidy. Can this work?"
"What's wrong. Sister, you too ,You know, magicians are very rich. The gold coins the teacher gave me are just a drop in the bucket." Colin put his hands on both knees and said nonchalantly.
"Okay." Linda in voted and accepted the explanation. Colin has been an honest since he was a child, and he will not lie. Immediately, she said to Colin seriously: "As a Van Gogh nobleman, you must keep this grace in your heart. You must respect your teacher as your own father."
"My teacher is Air." The corner of Colin's mouth twitched, with a serious expression on his face, he nods heavily and said, "Sister, don't worry, I will definitely not lose the face of the Russell family."
"Yes." Linda's disappointed with satisfaction , and then became happy again. Anyway, it's nice to have a gold subsidy.
There was a small episode, and Linda was in a good mood after getting angry.She left Colin behind and went to the kitchen, where she handled the big chicken, which soon turned into a big roasted chicken. After frying the steak again, after preparing the bread. Smith also returned, holding an old cardboard box in his arms.
"Welcome back, Smith." Linda immediately came to the door, hugged and kissed Smith.
"Hmm." Smith looked tired and frustrated, and hummed absently.
"What happened?" Linda knew Smith very well. Seeing this, her heart skipped a beat and asked with concern. to be continued......
