"Gag..."
The sound of the door opening and closing made Princess Lucy turn her head and said softly, "Jones, this city is really incredible."
Jones was slightly startled, and then nodded lightly. She could see that Princess Lucy was worried about the old king.
"Jones, what do you think if you are allowed to live here?" Princess Lucy said suddenly.
"Impossible." Jones said coldly, a trace of confusion flashed in her red eyes, she was used to staying with Princess Lucy these years, and never thought of living alone.
"Jones, you should have your own life. It's a waste of your talent to follow me." Princess Lucy turned around and looked at the pedestrians outside the window. Those talking and laughing Beastkin must be happier than the indifferent leopard-eared lady.
"What do you want to say?" Jones narrowed her red eyes, she knew that Princess Lucy was about to say something stupid again.
"Jones, I will live an ordinary life in the future, it is a pity that you follow me." Princess Lucy said in a deep voice, she can only live incognito in the future.
This was a sudden thought she had when she saw the Beastkin outside. You must know that Jones is a very, very powerful killer. If she hadn't saved Leopard-Er Niang by chance, she wouldn't have followed her all the time.
"You will starve to death." Jones said calmly. Based on her understanding of Princess Lucy, if she was allowed to live alone, she was afraid that she would starve to death.
"How come?" Princess Lucy pouted and blamed, "I can also learn to cook by myself, and I can also write novels to make money."
"Deceive yourself." The corners of Jones' mouth slightly raised. With Princess Lucy's cooking skills, she might poison herself to death.
"Huh!" Princess Lucy snorted softly. She also knew her craft, and it was really not suitable for cooking. When she was outside, Jones made everything by herself.
Jones raised her eyebrows, sat on the edge of the bed, took out her finger blade and wiped it. She didn't take Princess Lucy's words seriously at all. Princess Lucy always thought that she was restraining her.
In fact, it's just that Jones is used to the current life. As for the killer's life, she is no longer in her consideration. Being a killer is a last resort, but now it is not the last resort.
"Boom bang bang..."
Twenty minutes later, there was a knock on the door, and a voice came from outside the door, "Guests, the dishes you ordered are here."
Jones narrowed her red eyes slightly, got up and came to the door, with the finger blade on her right glove hidden behind her, and then stretched out her left hand to open a crack in the door, and saw a few people standing outside the door, holding trays in their hands.
"Gag!"
Leopard-Er Niang took a step back, opened the door, and let the food deliverers in.
"It's quite fast." Princess Lucy looked at the dishes on the table, quickly took out a copper coin from her pocket, and handed it to the person who delivered the food.
"Guests please use it slowly. Just leave the finished dishes outside the door, and someone will come and take them away." The food delivery man took the copper coins respectfully and withdrew them out.
"Kaji..." The delivery man closed the door when he left.
"Jones, come over to eat soon." Princess Lucy hurriedly shouted, her golden eyes were fixed on the dishes, and her saliva was salivating all the time due to the aroma.
"Yeah." Jones put away her finger blade and sat next to Princess Lucy.
"Wow? This smells so choking, is this the chili pepper that Darlene mentioned?"
"Hey, this round one is a lion's head, isn't it?...It's so delicious."
Chapter 0512 lucky money.
"Crash..."
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, in the hot spring pool, the beast-ear girls, elves and Nicole, everyone was soaking in the hot spring and getting ready to wear new clothes.
"New Year? How could the young master make such a holiday?" Annie lowered her head and said, she was washing her fox tail.
The Annie doesn't understand, and neither do other people. After all, there are no festivals in this world. The only festival is the day when the kingdom was established. That day is a national celebration. But after so many years, the festival of the Kingdom of Yingluo is coming soon. Make people forget.
Not to mention that the beast ear girls are not from the Kingdom of Yingluo, and they have no concept of festivals, after all, the kingdom of Brutus Beastkin is gone.
"Didn't the young master say that? The New Year is a festival in the young master's hometown, maybe it's to commemorate it." Nicole said softly, she was washing Deess's hair.
"Hey, what do you think? Where is your hometown?" Viya asked curiously.
"Well, I heard the young master say that he is from the east." Mina said lazily, lying in the water with only half of her face exposed.
"East? This range is too big." Annie rolled her eyes and said.
"In the east, isn't that close to the sea?" Avery asked doubtfully, she had also heard of the customs and customs of the east in the wild.
"By the sea? I haven't heard the young master mention the sea." Nicole held the horn girl's head with both hands, and even rubbed the horn with shampoo foam.
"Hey, what do you think the sea looks like?" Deess asked curiously, she had never seen the sea.
"I don't know either." Mina shook her head, she had never been to the sea.
"I heard that there is a lot of water, hundreds of times larger than some big lakes, and the water is still salty." Eliza answered calmly, she was teasing Su Mi.
"Don't worry, there will be a chance to find out in the future." Annie grinned, and said lazily, "Isn't the young master building a big ship? I'll take a boat to the sea to see it later."
"Huh? Pay attention to this." Teess sat up straight suddenly, flicking her long purple hair, foam flew everywhere.
"Dice, don't move around, you haven't washed it yet." Nicole scolded, and patted Niujiao Niang's clean back.
"Sorry." Teess lowered her head obediently again.
"Xilan, don't be shy." Viya turned her head to look at the silent Xilan, who was soaking in the hot spring with her arms folded on her chest.
"Ah?" Xilan was stunned, and stared blankly at the rabbit-eared lady. It was her first time to take a hot spring, and the feeling was too relaxing. Compared with her life in Heishui City, her current life is a noble life. .
"No, it's okay." Viya chuckled and shook her head. She thought Xilan was shy, but she was in a daze.
"Okay, let's go take a dip." Nicole helped Deess rinse off the foam, even washing off the foam splashed on her body.
"Yeah!" Teess stood up, her chest was trembling, and she jumped into the hot spring.
"puff!"
The water splashed high, and the faces of the people present were all covered with water, and the water was rippling violently.
In the next second, everyone was splashing water, you splashed me, I splashed you.
On the other side of the hot spring, HAD was lazily soaking in the hot spring. Hearing the sound of joking coming from the other side, he was considered the least person in the castle to soak in the hot spring.
"Crash..."
The water splashed on his face suddenly, HAD raised his hand to wipe off the water stains on his face, turned his head to look at Fleur who was practicing swimming with his swimming ring on, and kicked his feet vigorously on the water surface.
HAD shook his head. The girl's swimming skills really haven't improved at all. He taught the girl to swim, and accidentally bumped into a place that shouldn't be touched.
After 10 minutes, HAD's whole body became weak from soaking, and he yawned from time to time.He turned his head to look at the lazy Fleur, who was floating with the waves in a swimming ring.
"Fleur, stop soaking." HAD stood up, and before the girl could react, he picked up the big towel beside her to wrap her lower body, and walked to the shore.He was afraid that if he continued to soak, the girl must have passed out.
"Crash..."
Fleur kicked her feet, paddled the water with both hands to the shore, and went ashore naked like this, carefully put the swimming ring into the cabinet, and put on her clothes with a blushing face under HAD's gaze.
"..." The corners of HAD's mouth twitched, he really didn't treat him as an outsider, so he had no choice but to put his back on the girl and put on his clothes. He heard that the girl with beast ears on the other side had stopped taking a hot spring.
"Gag..."
"Ta Tata..."
The door was pushed open suddenly, and the sound of slippers walking could be heard. HAD didn't need to guess to know that it was the animal ear girl who had come.
"Huh? Young master, are you guys done?" Annie looked at HAD and Fleur, who were fully dressed, in astonishment.
"I've said it all, the young master will only be faster than us." Mina wiped her wet black hair with a towel.
"Hee hee... Annie is disappointed again." Nicole chuckled lightly, with a towel wrapped around her head, seeing HAD wiping her hair, she hurried forward to take over.
"If you soak it again, you'll fall asleep." HAD rolled his eyes. The fox-er lady always wanted to surprise him, didn't she see that the wolf-er lady was staring at him?
"My lord, what should I do next?" Viya asked curiously, she was very interested in the holidays, and she was much more relaxed than not having to teach these days.
"Next, we will have a New Year's Eve dinner, and then watch a show to watch the New Year's Eve." HAD said softly, waving to Nicole.
He walked towards the cabinet, and under the cover of the cabinet, he took out a stack of red envelopes from the inner space, the red envelopes that can be bought on the earth, with exquisite patterns on them.
During the New Year, how can we get less red envelopes?He had prepared the red envelope a long time ago. After taking a shower and putting on new clothes, he needed a red envelope to press into his pocket.
"Master, what is this?" Annie looked curiously at the envelope-like object in HAD's hand.
"This is a red envelope." HAD raised the corner of his mouth slightly, took out a red envelope and handed it to Hu Erniang, and said, "It is a custom in my hometown to give out red envelopes during the New Year, also called lucky money."
"Red envelopes? New Year's money? Customs?" Annie took the red envelopes in a daze, and was instantly attracted by the exquisite patterns on the red envelopes. She said with emotion, "This pattern is so beautiful."
"Wow! There is actually a silver coin in it." Deess exclaimed.
Eliza held the silver coin and hesitated, "My lord, is this too much?"
"Only once a year, that's not too much." HAD waved his hand, watching Luerniang happily show Viya with a silver coin, he was very curious about whether the little animal'erniang handed in the new year's money?Or keep it for yourself?
"Sister Viya, I also have silver coins." Su Mi shouted happily, holding the silver coins carefully with both hands.
"Then you have to keep it safe." Viya said softly.
"Give the silver coins to sister Viya, and buy delicious food for Xiaoxue and the others." Su Mi shouted excitedly.
The Xiaoxue she was talking about was the Beastkin children from the tribe, that is, the orphans in the orphanage.
"Okay, I'll take you to see everyone tomorrow." Viya said gently, she would not reject Su Mi's kind deed.
Chapter 0513 modern castle?
"Master, I'm going to cook first." Nicole put away the red envelope, scanned the crowd and said, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
"Don't make it so complicated, let's make dumplings together tonight." HAD waved his hands.
On the other side of the earth, dumplings have many meanings, and they also represent reunion. Children eat dumplings before they leave home, and they eat dumplings when they return home.
Of course, HAD has never eaten like this. After all, he is an orphan. He saw these things on TV, so he wanted to do it once.
"Is this...is it all right?" Nicole hesitated.
Do you know today is a holiday?I have eaten dumplings a few times in the castle, but compared to the braised pork and fried chicken that I usually eat, they are not as good.
"Just make dumplings." HAD smiled lightly. He really likes to eat dumplings.
"Okay, I'll prepare it first." Nicole nodded, and took Viya away when she left. They had to get the stuffing and dough first.
"We also have something to do." HAD waved his hand and led the beast-eared girls to the accommodation in the backyard.
"Master, what are we going to do?" Annie asked curiously.
"Paste the door couplet, you can post it yourself in your room." HAD smiled lightly, repeating what he said to Nuo Yue in the morning.
"Okay, I'm going to post it." Deess yelled excitedly.
"I want to too." Xiaolu Erniang shouted bouncingly.
"All of them." HAD smiled gently. In the morning, he had written all the couplets.
"Master, I'll go get the door link." Mina said and ran towards the study quickly, and the wolf-eared lady followed closely behind, wagging her wolf tail.
"Ta Tata..."
HAD brought Fleur and the others to the accommodation, looked at the yard in front of him, and couldn't help frowning.
"Master, what's the matter?" Annie asked suspiciously, she looked at the yard with her fox ears shaking, it was no different from usual.
"It's too small." HAD sighed. The castle is very big, but the accommodation in the backyard is not that big. Now more and more people live in the backyard. If there are more people, they will have to share a room.
"My lord, this is enough." Eliza whispered beside her, thinking that the city lord was blaming herself.
"Don't worry, there will be a new house in a while." HAD said in a deep voice. He decided to put the castle renovation on the agenda at the same time after the beginning of spring. At the very least, electric lights and running water must be provided.
"New house?" Elisa, Annie, and Deess were all stunned, staring blankly at HAD's pretty side face.
"Well, when the time comes, rebuild the house on the other side. This kind of yard is too humid, and you will get rheumatism if you live in it for a long time." HAD pointed to an open space not far away, where there was a piece of lawn, which happened to be used to build a house.
"Young master, I don't want it anymore." Annie persuaded, flicking her fox tail, "That lawn is the separation zone between the backyard and the middle yard. If a house is built on it, the layout of the castle will not look good."
She knew that a castle was the face of a nobleman. The castle owned by the young master used to be a duke-level castle. Although it was only half built, it was better than many noblemen.
In the future, Sheba City will grow stronger, and many nobles will come to visit, and they will definitely visit the castle. If people find the layout of the castle chaotic, they will be laughed at by the nobles.
"Oh?" HAD raised his eyebrows. He knew what Hu Erniang meant. In this era, nobles value their face more than anything else.
In fact, he has long been dissatisfied with this castle. The damp and dark environment will make people feel depressed after living for a long time. Instead, he yearns for a modern residence on the other side of the earth.
Perhaps, he can build a modern castle instead of the dilapidated castle that is prone to breeding mosquitoes. He decided to find the blueprint when he returned to Earth, or invite some professionals to design it. It should match the ancient style garden and have a modern sense. castle.
But the castle renovation still needs to be carried out. After all, to build a modern castle, with the construction capabilities of this era, it will take at least a few years, unless he builds something.
"Master, the door link is here." Mina woke up HAD who was in deep thought.
"Then let's have one pair for each person." HAD said softly, took a pair of door stickers with his hand, took the glue from Avery, and helped Nicole's room to stick the door stickers.
"Mina, give me a pair." Annie hurriedly shouted, her small body squeezed towards the cat-eared girl, but she was squeezed by Deess's hips, and she took two steps back.
"Damn big cow." Annie said through gritted teeth. She compared the heights of the two and sighed in despair.
"Your Highness, here it is." Avery quickly handed over a pair of door coupons after seeing it.
"No, I'll do it myself." Annie waved her hand, telling Avery not to care about her identity, so don't be too special.
"This..." Avery stared blankly at Annie and went to pester Mina again, her orange eyes were full of disappointment, Her Royal Highness was not as dependent on her as before.
"Everyone needs to grow up. It's a good thing that Annie has matured a lot now." HAD smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said to the excited Annie, "After today, she will be one year older."
"Growing up?" Avery stared blankly at the back of Her Royal Highness, who was indeed much stronger than before.
"Go ahead, you go to post the door link too." HAD took the glue from Avery's hand and said with a light smile, "You can paste the door link in your own room, and other people don't have to worry about them."
"Yes." Avery nodded, took the door link and posted it.
Elisa, who was next to her, heard the conversation between the two, and she stared blankly at the side face of the city lord, thinking that the city lord is still as warm and considerate as ever.She could see that Avery was confused, but she didn't expect to be resolved by the two words of the city lord.
"Eliza, don't you post the door link?" HAD turned his head and asked.
"Ah?" Eliza was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and said softly, "Of course I have to post it. This is written by the Lord of the City. It is impossible not to post it."
HAD rolled his eyes at the elf's teasing words. It seems that the elves have begun to integrate into the life of the castle.Then, as long as he can solve the matter of offering a bounty to Eliza, then he will truly liberate Eliza's heart.
Chapter 0514 lucky dumplings.
After spending half an hour, HAD took everyone to paste the door stickers and walked to the restaurant. Now the sky has darkened, which is around 06:30 in the afternoon.
"Ta Tata..."
"Nicole, are you alright?" Annie's voice came in before she arrived at the restaurant.
"It's almost there." Nicole looked up, and her gray eyes looked at the people who appeared in front of the restaurant.
"The meat stuffing is ready, it's just time to roll out the dough." Wei Yatu shook her ears and said, "Everyone can wash their hands first, and get ready to make dumplings."
"Okay, I haven't made dumplings yet, I must try it this time." Mina said happily, and walked to wash her hands.
"I haven't tried it either." Teess raised her hand and followed the cat-eared lady to wash her hands, and the others followed suit.
HAD took out three silver coins from his pocket. He wanted to play a small game of eating lucky dumplings. Eating dumplings with silver coins represented good luck, fortune and peace this year.Of course, this can be regarded as a kind of adjustment of life.
He intentionally left it until the end to wash his hands. By the way, he scrubbed the silver coins with dish soap several times before wiping them with a clean sackcloth.
When he came to the restaurant, he saw the beast-ear girls staring at Viya's movements seriously. They were learning how to make dumplings.
"Why does it feel so difficult?" Annie muttered, holding a piece of dumpling wrapper, trying to close it.
"Hahaha... Annie, what are you wrapping? It feels like a lump of mud." Teess teased, she shaved the purple hair hanging down her cheeks with her hands, and the flour on her fingers left a residue on her cheeks. A few white marks.
"Hahahaha...you're a painted face, you're a big painted face." Annie pointed at Niujiao Niang and laughed.
"Huh? You're also a painted fox." Teess quickly raised her hand to touch the Annie's face, leaving four white marks of flour.
"Damn it..." Annie wanted to fight back, but found that she was not tall enough, and couldn't help feeling suffocated.When will I grow taller?Or will it be like this from now on?
"Okay, stop making trouble, hurry up and make dumplings, and I have to go to the show tonight." Eliza came out to smooth things over, and let a few people continue to make trouble, it would take a long time to make enough dumplings for everyone, after all, the beast ear girl The appetite is not small.
"Master, how did I make the dumplings?" Mina spread out her palms, and a dumpling was squeezed into a ball. Anyone who said it was a dumpling would believe it.
"Not bad." The corners of HAD's eyes twitched. Sure enough, Mao Er Niang didn't have any talent for cooking. Comparing Viya and Nicole in terms of cooking skills, it was like the difference between -1 and 100.
"What about mine?" Annie also spread out her palms, and a dumpling twice the size of Cat-Er Niang lay on her palm. It used two or three dumpling wrappers.
"Annie, are you making steamed buns?" Viya's eyes twitched as she spoke, but she didn't stop making dumplings with her hands.
"Big ones are good, you can eat more meat." Annie raised her head and said arrogantly, "It's faster to make dumplings this way."
"Annie, don't make the buns so big. If you cook them together, you will be slow to cook." Nicole rolled her eyes and said, she was rolling the dough quickly.
"Oh." Annie pouted, and put the large dumplings aside, but had no choice but to give up the idea of making large dumplings.
"Miss Eliza's dumplings are beautiful, just like Viya's." Xilan opened her brown eyes, staring at Eliza's movements.
"Really." Teess quickly put down the dumpling that was clenched with finger marks, squeezed to the side of the elf, and pulled Eliza to teach her.
HAD stuffed the silver coins into the dumplings calmly, and he was relieved when he saw no one noticed; he looked up and scanned the crowd, and then saw a scene that shocked him.
"Fleur, what did you make?" HAD's mouth twitched, looking at the long dumpling in the girl's hand?This long dumpling is at least as long as a palm. Is this still a dumpling?
"Mine." Fleur said coldly, put the long dumplings on the plate, then picked up four dumpling wrappers and laid them out, then put the meat stuffing on top.
"Okay, yours." HAD said helplessly, making dumplings, why does it feel like the beast ear mother is playing with mud?
It took half an hour to make enough dumplings for everyone to eat. Nicole was putting the dumplings into the pot, and the rest sat at the dining table and waited, hoping to eat the dumplings they made themselves.
"Okay, the first plate of dumplings is on the pot..." Nicole scooped up the dumplings with a net spoon, and poured down another pot of dumplings.
After more than ten minutes, more than ten plates of dumplings were placed on the dining table, and there was also a large bowl of vegetable soup for each person.
"Let's eat." HAD picked up the dumpling and stuffed it into his mouth. It was a normal dumpling, like the long dumpling made by Fleur. Most of it had been broken during the cooking process, and only a few were still good.
"Delicious." Deess stuffed two dumplings into her mouth in a row. She could stuff four or five of such small dumplings into her mouth in a row.
"Uh...the skin is so thick." Annie had a bitter face. The large dumplings she made had a much worse skin to bite than the ones made by Viya and the others. The two words were 'unpalatable'.
"Crack..." Suddenly there was a sound of teeth biting something hard.
"What is it?" Eliza followed the voice with her ears sharply, and saw Su Mi, a little loli, was stunned.
"Su Mi, what's wrong with you? Did you bite something?" Viya worried.
"Kaka..." Su Mi chewed two more, and slowly spit out a silver coin from her mouth. She held the silver coin in her small hand and stared blankly at the silver coin. She never expected to eat the silver coin in the dumpling.
"Huh? Su Mi, why did you put the silver coin in your mouth?" Mina said in shock.
"No, it's not, I got it by eating dumplings." Su Mi shouted excitedly, her face full of disbelief.
"I played that. It's also a small game in my hometown. Those who eat dumplings and get silver coins represent good fortune. There are still two silver coins that haven't been eaten." HAD smiled lightly.
"Ah?" Everyone present was stunned for a moment, and in the next second they all grabbed the dumplings and stuffed them into their mouths one by one.
"Dice, how can you take it away in one plate??"
"I'm done eating, you can eat those few plates."
"Hey, hey, why don't you eat the weird-shaped dumplings you made?"
"Eat later..."
Chapter 0515 crooked mind?
"Well..."
The delicate nasal sound sounded, and Princess Lucy slowly opened her eyes, only to see the pitch black, blinking her golden eyes in a daze, and then she realized it.
"Jones, are you there?" Princess Lucy turned her head and looked at the leopard-eared girl who was sleeping next to her. They took a rest after dinner in the afternoon, and now they don't know what time it is.
"Huh?" Jones' eyelashes fluttered, her red eyes opened, and she immediately rolled over and got out of bed.
"Crack..."
There was a sound of flint knocking, the candle was lit, and the dark room was immediately brightened.
"Jones, what time is it?" Princess Lucy sat up, her long blond hair was scattered, and she exuded a lazy atmosphere.
With messy hair, Jones walked to the window and looked out, and saw that the fire was brightly lit outside, and the avenue was full of pedestrians, which was very lively.
"I guess it's only been dark for a while." Jones said lightly, her face was a little annoyed, she had fallen asleep, and she had to be woken up by Lucy, which never happened before.
"Did it get dark for a while? I thought it had been a long time." Princess Lucy stretched out of the lazy bed, which was so comfortable to sleep on.
"..." Jones had a cold face and grabbed her long brown hair. The city exuded a comfortable atmosphere, which made her uncomfortable.
Princess Lucy got out of bed and came to the window to see how busy it was outside. She thought of the performance that the front desk said today, and hurriedly said, "Jones, tidy up quickly, let's go out for a stroll."
"Yeah." Jones made a nasal sound indifferently, and tied the finger blade set on the head of the bed around her waist, tied her long brown hair with a rope, and put on a robe.
Princess Lucy coiled her long golden hair behind her head, then wrapped it in sackcloth, and put on a robe, which can be regarded as tidied up.She was the first to open the door and go out, she was very curious about the outside now.
"Ta Tata..."
Under the escort of Jones, Princess Lucy came out of the street. Looking at the fires on both sides of the road and the flow of people walking in one direction on the street, she felt very fresh.
She is a princess, but she seldom goes out to play in the palace, let alone at night, and there is nothing to do in the city at night, the streets are deserted, except for the drunk noble children.
Unlike the scene in front of you, the streets are full of people, shouting, joking, discussing people, etc., giving people a bustling scene.
"It's unbelievable that there are so many people at night." Princess Lucy said with emotion.
Jones' red eyes scanned her surroundings vigilantly. She was also quite surprised. She had been to many cities, and few civilians came out to wander around at night.
"Lian, hurry up, don't be slow, it's disrespectful to the Lord of the city to be late." Li Zao grabbed Ryan and urged, "It's less than 10 minutes since we left the venue."
"Okay, don't rush, we'll be there soon." Ryan was arranging his clothes while walking, and before leaving the door, the two men made a man indecently, which made it late to go out.
Princess Lucy quietly looked at the two people walking in front of her. She silently memorized the conversation between the two just now, which can be regarded as a material in her novel.
"Come on, give me a hug for the baby. Go faster." Tori reached out to take the baby in his wife's arms, but his obese figure started to walk quickly.
"Okay!" Tori's wife chuckled lightly.In the past two days, the business of my husband's store has been getting better and better. A dozen newspaper advertisements have doubled their family's income several times.
Princess Lucy couldn't help smiling when she saw the fat man trotting and the woman following closely behind. This couple is also very interesting.
"Jones, let's go and see it too." Princess Lucy smiled. She was really looking forward to the performance ahead. Is it similar to the stage play in Wangdu?
The two walked forward along the flow of people, and soon came to the square, and saw a strange stage in front of it, with a big white cloth on it.There are several rows of chairs in front of the stage, and the two couples they met on the road before all sat on those rows of chairs.
There were people around the stage, and Princess Lucy and Jones were also members of the crowd, and everyone was discussing in low voices.
"I heard that there are three shadow puppet shows, all of which are free for everyone to watch, for four consecutive nights."
"Great, I can finally see what shadow puppetry is like."
"That's right, the city lord is really kind. Not to mention giving us paid holidays, he even played shadow puppets for everyone."
"..."
"Shadow play?" Princess Lucy frowned. What kind of new stage play is this?What a strange name.
"Look, the Lord City Lord has come out, so handsome, like a prince?"
"Wow! Miss Nicole is very beautiful."
"Miss Annie is also very cute, everyone is very beautiful."
"..."
Princess Lucy and Jones followed the gazes of the crowd and saw the direction of the castle. A group of people were walking towards the chairs in front of the stage. Princess Lucy was stunned by the way the other party was dressed.
Because of the distance and the dark night, the fabric is definitely not clear, but the style of the clothes is amazing, too noble, gorgeous and trendy; this makes Princess Lucy think that those people are princes and princesses.
"Huh? Is that person Eliza?" Princess Lucy saw a familiar person in the group, and the exquisite face and white hair were too obvious.
"To get to know each other?" Jones said coldly, but her eyes were fixed on those knights in full armor, and she felt a sense of crisis from them.
"No, not for now." Princess Lucy shook her head, not wanting to reveal her identity yet.
Jones's red eyes flickered, and she reminded faintly, "Look for her to understand, and you will know whether the witch doctor is true or not."
"That's right!" Princess Lucy suddenly realized, Darlene and the two said that the city lord's medical skills are very good, which happened to ask Eliza to understand.
"What are you going to do?" Jones asked indifferently.
"Don't be in a hurry for now." Princess Lucy shook her head. She frowned and thought about how to get close to Eliza without anyone noticing.
After all, her princess status is too sensitive, and she will cause trouble too much. She doesn't know what kind of person that city lord is. Even if the other party manages Sheba City so well now, it is hard to guarantee that the other party will move. With a twisted mind, she couldn't trust a stranger just because of Darlene's words.
Chapter 0516 The First Spring Festival Gala of the Alien Edition.
"Cough cough..."
After HAD coughed twice, the noisy atmosphere quieted down, and everyone looked at him quietly.He was standing on the stage of the shadow puppetry, holding a microphone in his hand, which is the kind of integrated microphone, that is, the microphone itself has a sound amplification effect.
"I'm HAD, the Lord of Sheba City." HAD flipped his sleeves slightly, and said into the microphone, "Today is the last day of the old year. After today, everyone will be one year older."
With HAD's current prestige, it was very quiet below, and no one made a sound. Annie, Mina, Nicole and others looked at HAD with beautiful eyes.
"In the old year, everyone had a bad life. It is normal for everyone to eat a full meal and be hungry all day." HAD said in a deep and powerful voice, "The old year is old, and the new year is coming soon. Only labor can make us feel better." Everyone lives a good life, labor can fill everyone's stomachs, and hard work can change your destiny."
"As long as you study hard and work hard, as your city lord, I have no other skills, at least I won't let everyone go hungry."
The simple and straight-to-heart words made the eyes of the common people blush. The old year was too hard for them. If they hadn't met the kind city lord who exempted them from exorbitant taxes and produced steel coins so that everyone could trade in small denominations, Life is richer and more varied.
HAD's voice became higher and higher, and then changed his voice, "Spring is coming. From now on, every year at this time, on the last day of the old year and the first three days of the new year, all will be on vacation with pay. Besides, there will be shadow puppet shows to watch. ."
As soon as the words fell, a neat roar erupted from the crowd, "Long live the city lord! Long live the city lord!"
HAD's simple words are the most touching. The common people don't think much, and they don't see the long-term. They only focus on the immediate interests, paid holidays, shadow puppetry, these two things are right in the hearts of the common people.
Common people know that there are shadow puppet shows, but many common people are reluctant to spend money to see them. Now the shadow puppet show that HAD asked to show started from the first episode. After four days and twelve episodes, it just happened to be picked up in the shadow puppet show shop. The new episode of the show will attract many people to the shadow puppet shop to watch.
HAD stood on the stage and waved his hands, stepped off the stage, sat on the chair in the middle, turned his head and said to Mina, "Let's get started."
"Yes!" Mina nodded, and got up to arrange people.
"Hiccup~"
Annie next to her suddenly burped, her cheeks flushed immediately, it was because she was too full to grab the dumplings just now.
"Hic~" Teess also hiccupped, making her bow her head embarrassingly. She and Annie grabbed the most dumplings.
"Would you like some water?" Nicole asked concerned, a smile flashed in her gray eyes, the two of them snatched so many dumplings, but they still didn't get any silver coins in the end.
"No." Annie and Deess shook their heads quickly, their stomachs were already full, and they were about to vomit if they drank any more water.
"Nicole, there are digestion tablets in the first aid kit, go and get two for them." HAD laughed, the two people who didn't know how to control themselves.
"I'll get it." Viya smiled embarrassedly, got up and went to the castle, and she ate one of the silver coins.
"Who knew our luck would be so bad." Annie pursed her lips and muttered, Fox Ears lay down listlessly.
"Next time, I won't dare to eat so much." Deess rubbed her stomach from time to time with her big belly. People who didn't know thought she was pregnant.
"Dong Dong Dong!!!"
At this time, the sound of gongs and drums sounded, and the surrounding torches were immediately blocked by the black linen, and the surroundings immediately became dark, and the fire was lit behind the white curtain.
"Dong dong dong..."
The drums sounded intensively, immediately attracting everyone's attention, and shadow puppets appeared on the white curtain immediately.
The snare drums of 'dong dong dong' sounded one after another. With the provocation of the Yueqin and the erhu pulling, the magnetic sound came from behind the white curtain.
"It's been a while since the legend. It was a new era. There are many continents in the whole world. It's a continent that is much larger than our current Forbidden Mountain Range. The most important ones are these continents. Niu Hezhou..."
Following the performance of the shadow puppet show, Princess Lucy in the crowd slowly widened her golden eyes, looking at the white curtain in front of her in disbelief, her eyes were completely reluctant to leave.
Jones was not much better, her red eyes were focused on the curtain, her leopard ears were pricked up, listening to the slightly accented voice with all her attention.
As the plot of the shadow puppet drama progressed, the civilians didn't even dare to take a breath, for fear of disturbing the people behind the curtain who were manipulating it. Even those who had seen it carefully looked at it again. For them, they really couldn't get enough of it. .
Only HAD sat blankly, grinning from time to time. He was a little sleepy, and the attraction of shadow puppetry to him was very limited. The real Spring Festival Gala.
"Aha~~" HAD yawned. On the first night of the Spring Festival Gala, he couldn't leave, at least he had to stay until twelve o'clock.
Nicole poked her head into HAD's ear and breathed out, "Master, you can lean against me and sleep for a while, everyone can't see here."
"Yeah!" HAD yawned again, only the shadow puppet stage in the whole square was lit by fire, and the rest of the square was pitch black for a while, HAD felt relieved to rest on Nicole's lap and squint for a while.
He was busy last night until late, and got up early again, and now he can just catch up on sleep.With the girl's soft thighs as a pillow, and smelling the light and fresh body fragrance, HAD fell asleep in a short while.
Nicole's cheeks were slightly red, she put her hands on the young master's head, and slowly combed her long black hair. Looking at the young master's peaceful face, her heart was very peaceful.
"Huh? Where's the young master?" Mina came back, but she didn't see HAD with a glance.
"Here!" Nicole waved, pointing to her thigh.
"Uh..." Mina was stunned when she saw this scene, her cheeks flushed instantly, she thought of how the young master had been tossing her so late last night, and today she had another busy day...
Chapter 0517 Nicole out of embarrassment.
"Dong dong dong..."
"Act Two: The End!"
With the sound of the drums getting quieter and the announcement of the curtain, the second shadow puppet show ended, and the backstage staff hurriedly took a rest, drank water, and ate something to replenish their strength.
"Huh?" Eliza turned her head and looked back, her emerald green eyes looked around, scanning the crowd, always feeling that someone was staring at her.
"Eliza, what's the matter?" Mina asked softly, and she also turned her head to scan the back, and all she saw were figures.
"It's nothing." Eliza shook her head, turned her head to look at the shadow puppet stage, thinking that maybe it was an illusion, her identity had been leaked, and she was always worried that someone would come to Sheba City to make trouble.
"..." Mina frowned, turned around and waited quietly for the next shadow play to begin.
Watching shadow puppets with so many people gave Maoer Niang the feeling that it was lively and had a different life experience, although she didn't like too many people.
"Dong dong dong..."
The drums sounded, and the third game began, and the somewhat noisy discussion disappeared immediately.
Among the crowd, Princess Lucy slowly raised her head and was relieved to see that the shadow puppet show had started again. She was staring at Eliza's back just now, but she didn't expect the elves to be so sensitive.
"Isn't it good for her to see it?" Jones turned around and said lightly, "She shouldn't be the kind of showy person."
"People will change." Princess Lucy sighed, quietly watching the shadow puppet show, she felt that the scenes performed on the stage would be wonderful to write a novel.
Time goes by slowly, and focusing on one thing will make people feel that the time is too short.
But for Nicole, this was a torment. Her legs tensed and relaxed from time to time, her face was flushed, and her gray eyes were full of mist.She held the young master's long hair tightly with both hands, and couldn't help breathing a little short of breath, as if she was holding back something.
"Nicole, what's wrong with you?" Viya felt Nicole's strangeness, turned her head and asked with concern, "Why is your face so red?"
"I'm... fine." Nicole pursed her lips, she was a little embarrassed to ask to go to the bathroom, she looked down at the sleeping young master, and didn't really want to wake him up.
"Really? I have a first-aid kit here? There are medicines." Viya shook her rabbit's ears, and took out the first-aid kit from her arms, which she brought along with the digestion tablets just now.
"It's really not necessary." Nicole shook her head, took a deep breath, and almost couldn't hold it back just now.
"..." Viya frowned, nodded silently, and stopped talking, turned her head to watch the shadow puppet show, but occasionally turned her head and saw Nicole frequently took out her watch to watch.
Time passed slowly, and as the third shadow puppet show came to the end of the curtain, the night time also came to more than 50:.
"Master, wake up..." Nicole nudged the young master with flushed cheeks, but it was the young master's cheek that was pressed against her belly, and the heat of her breath made her whole body go limp.
"Huh?" HAD slowly opened his eyes wide and said lazily, "What time is it?"
"It's almost twelve o'clock." Nicole breathed heavily.
"Huh?" HAD was stunned for a moment, he could feel Nicole's strangeness, and quickly got up and asked concerned, "Nicole, what's wrong with you?"
It was Nicole's current appearance that frightened him, her cheeks were flushed with pain, and her gray eyes were full of mist, as if she was about to cry.
"I..." Nicole trembled and wanted to stand up. She wanted to go back to the castle to go to the bathroom. long time.
"Quickly tell me, are you uncomfortable there? Stomach?" HAD asked anxiously. He saw Nicole clutching her stomach.
"Young master, come here with your head." Nicole stammered, she really couldn't help it, she must not embarrass herself in public.
"You said..." HAD leaned his head quickly.
