Mrs. Cynthia's face suddenly burst into a smile, and he said happily: "Don't say borrow, who will use the mother's things for the son? What brand of wine do you want? I opened the hotel, of course there are many Cellar storage. Not to mention twenty years, there are two barrels in a hundred years. You just say, I will ask someone to find you."
Hughes smiled and shook his head: "It's not necessary for a hundred years, that is too precious. It would be inappropriate for me to send it. Twenty years of "burning" would be enough. My father's mentor should also be a bit. Swordsman professional, then he should like such a fiery wine."
Mrs. Cynthia stopped eating and nodded after thinking for a while: "I know President Lucas, he is a long-famous swordsman. His character is very bold and direct. This, you see When he comes to himself, he will understand that his thoughts are always written on his face. Ha ha ~ is a very interesting elder. So, you choose a good brand, I think the dean should be very like."
Mrs. Cynthia nodded to Yana, who was serving next to her, and Yana immediately retreated to the door and turned to go out. After a short time, she returned with a dark red long-necked crystal bottle.
Mrs. Cynthia took a glance in her hand, opened the cap and smelled it, frowned and handed it to Hughes's hand: "The taste is very positive, but I don't like this spicy taste."
"Boom Boom Boom~"
Hughes read "The Legend of Mainland Masters" in the room, and was so enthralled that he suddenly heard a knock on the door and was slightly surprised. But then he reacted, and the person who came to him at this time should be Nalco, and it was time to visit Dean Lucas' house.
Sure enough, when Hughes opened the door, he saw a middle-aged bodyguard wearing a new suit.
"Advanced, I will change my coat."
As soon as Nalco entered the door, he noticed that the bottle on the table had been "burning" for 20 years, and there was a fiery color in his eyes. For the soldiers, this kind of wine is their favorite. Even the precious red wine consumed in the banquet in the palace is not as good as the taste of "burning" when it falls in the entrance. It is hot, fire, and soldiers. Passionate years.
Nalco is no exception, of course, he really wants to taste 20 years of "burning" fiery taste.
However, such thoughts are fleeting. Nalco guessed that it should be given to the deputy dean of Lucas, a gift that was adequate to Lord Earl, and for the time being it was not something that he likes could enjoy.
"What do you think of this one? It should be dignified and decent enough?" When Hughes came out, he was already wearing a dark blue aristocratic dress, an upright collar, gold threads on the neckline, cuffs, and edges of the placket, chest Gorgeous dark gold lines on the cardigan, dark red gem buttons...Every detail reflects the excellent workmanship and rare materials of the clothes. More importantly, this dress is not the kind of ceremonial dress that focuses on embodying solemnity, but it tends to feel like it can be worn directly for dinner. Therefore, when Hughes put it on, the eyes of the people who saw it turned on, no one can deny that, from the appearance only, this is indeed a handsome and handsome young man of nobility!
Nalco applauded softly and smiled: "It's very beautiful clothes, it seems to be Wang Du's new style."
Hughes nodded with a smile and admitted: "Mrs. Cynthia sent me today. This is already the second piece. They are all very beautiful clothes. I like it very much."
Nalco felt relieved that he was only grateful to the God of War for the reunion of the separated mother and son.
"Let's go, that bottle of "Burning" is a gift I am going to give to Master Lucas, I believe he will like it." Hughes walked in front, and Nalco behind him held the wine to his chest and followed.
It was in the carriage hotel, and Mrs. Cynthia had already prepared it, waiting at the exit of the back door.
"21 St. John's Street." Nalco commanded the driver.
"I heard that St. John's Street is near the college's north gate, is it also very close to the palace?" After the carriage ran, Hughes asked Nalco. He had only heard of some of these famous places. Unlike Nalco, he didn't know how many times he visited. It was Ram, who always went out frequently in these two days. Presumably similar to important places, he had already run all over.
Hughes was slightly jealous of this, but he was relieved to think that his men were doing things seriously. Fundamentally speaking, Hughes is a kind noble aristocrat who has not yet been completely shaped, has a good heart and is approachable. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Nalco to sit in the carriage. He could only sit on the side with the driver and sit on the cowl in the sun and rain.
Nalco confirmed this, "The front of the north gate of the Royal Warrior Academy is actually on the west side of the palace. The large area is the noble area, and most of them are with hereditary knights, and there are very few The great businessman who got the title of the palace, the rich man. Like Lord Lucas, because of the status of the great swordsman and the title of the count, His Majesty the King gave him an Earl's Palace in this area, located near the north gate of the Royal Academy of Warriors. It’s not actually on the street of St. John’s Street, but the location is also quite good. The country always rewards high-end combat power.
Hughes watched the scenery along the road through the car window with interest, asking the guard some questions from time to time, and time passed unconsciously. When Hughes felt that the carriage stopped, they were already on St. John's Street in the northwest corner of the City of Ares.
"Is this here? Ah, what a wide road!" Hughes was talking to Nalco, and suddenly felt that the carriage stopped with a shock. He looked through the window and found that they were clean and tidy and like The white mountain rock pavement as wide as the square could not help but exclaim. Such a huge mountain and rock brick, paved such a wide and long street, only half the cost of the journey, I am afraid that the Viscount family can be bankrupt.
Nalco smiled: "This is St. John’s Avenue. It’s also a good avenue in the City of Ares. It can hold ten carriages side by side. On either side is the residence of the emperor of the kingdom, or the residence of embassies of various countries. Seeing that high place Is it inserted into the cloud spire? It is a grand temple of war, the Temple of St. Karius. Although it is only ranked third among all temples of war in Wangdu, if you see it with your own eyes, it can still shock and bow your mortals. ."
Hughes said in surprise: "It is indeed the king capital, and it is not surprising that there is a grand temple of war. The value of this street alone is enough to make the nobles of the glorious city dumbfounded. No wonder the kings and nobles look down on us, just rely on This street, they have the qualification to look down on us. Look at the joints of the stones on the pavement, smooth and smooth, tightly stitched, even if the cost of materials is completely removed, it is only cutting, grinding, handling, installation The labor cost is probably an astronomical figure!"
Nalco was rather speechless. He felt that the master's interest in such things as gold coins had gradually grown over the past two days. Ten sentences were exported, and at least three or five sentences could be related to money. This is completely different from the young master in his eyes.
Nalco suddenly thought, why didn't the driver leave yet? He used to think that this guy was more jealous, and stopped here specifically to let the younger master look a little longer.
"You can go on," Nalco told the driver, and he explained to Huss who hadn't seen enough: "Late time is a very rude thing. You are visiting the count for the first time, and it is count Juniors, it’s better to arrive a little earlier, and it shows your respect for Lord Earl."
Hughes put down the gauze on the window and nodded: "Yes, let's go on."
At this moment, the driver turned around embarrassedly and said, "Master Hughes, Master Nalco, I'm afraid we have to wait for a while. The city defense troops in front are all standing in a column. Obviously, there are big people going through here. If we pass now It’s very likely that the city’s defense force will drive it out, and it might make the big man unhappy. Look, are we waiting for a while?"
Hughes only noticed at this moment that, as expected, on the other side of the street, rows of neatly dressed Wangdu Chengfang were standing on either side of the street, with their heads facing in one direction, as if waiting for someone to come.
Nalco frowned, and he thought about ordering the coachman for a moment: "Then exit the street, and we will go in from the north gate of the Warrior Academy. There is a quiet tree-lined path that can reach the mansion of the Earl of Lucas. Turn around quickly, don't let the city guards block the road, it will take a long time."
The coachman acted on his orders, the carriage turned around and trot according to Nalco's instructions. Fortunately, this road is very well maintained. At the current speed, there is almost no bumpy feeling.
This time was very smooth, and Hughes and his party quickly reached the door of Earl's Court. There was a young bodyguard standing there, and when he saw a carriage stopped, he quickly greeted him and performed a swordsman ceremony.
"Is it Master Hughes? I'm the guardian of the Earl's Court. I am here at the order of Lord Earl waiting for your arrival."
Hughes smiled at him: "It's me, thanks to Earl's enthusiasm, please lead the way ahead."
Hughes followed each other, circling the trail in Earl's Court. The scenery in the palace is very good, with huge green trees, green grass, and green vines on the corners of the walls, with unknown pink flowers growing on them, dark fragrance floating.
When Hughes came to the three-story blue building surrounded by flowerbeds, he saw a tall, fair-haired old man with blond hair standing at the door, staring at him with a smile.
Without Nalco reminding Hughes, he knew that the only one who could greet himself in that position, except the heir to Earl Lucas, was the Earl himself. The age of the other party is obviously not small.
Hughes took the first two steps and stopped two meters away from the earl. He respectfully gave the earl a solemn manner, standard posture and sincere attitude when he met the elders.
"Shuth Horton, I have seen Lord Count Lucas, and I am very honored to be able to greet you personally."
"Okay, get up, don't be restrained when you come to me." Earl Lucas laughed down the stairs, helped Hughes up, smiled at Nalco and nodded, then took Hughes' hand and strode forward Walked in the hall.
Just entering the living room, a kind old lady on the sofa stood up slowly with the help of the maid beside him. Behind her were three middle-aged men, two men and two women. There is a kind smile on everyone's face, very kind.
"Lucca, this is what you often talked to me in these two days, Gael's child? Welcome, little Hughes, really a handsome and handsome man. It's nice to see that Gael's child is succeeded." The old man The man walked in front of Hughes with a smile and touched his head gently. Hughes realized that the identity of the other party should be the countess, very respectful, and leaned forward to salute the old lady.
Hughes quickly saluted everyone. You can meet him here without thinking, it must be Lucas's family. Although it is not clear who each person is, it is necessary to give each other sufficient respect first.
The Earl's family apparently liked Hughes' courtesy and returned their salutes. Count Lucas laughed, no doubt, very satisfied with this extremely harmonious scene.
He took Hughes' hand and introduced him to each family member: "This is my wife. In my relationship with your father, you can call her Granny Lily; this is my son, Jinsen, next to Her wife Qi Li, you can call them uncle and aunt; finally, my daughter, Athelia, you can call her aunt, she likes the handsome little boy like you best, hehe, pay attention, she is also The mentor of the college. If you her, you can know many beautiful women in the logistics department. Haha~~"
"Hehehe~", the earl's words made the hall laughter, Hughes was a little embarrassed, and, at the beginning of this, he was not sure whether he should take it. Although there is a father's relationship, and the Earl family seems to be quite kind to him, Hughes is still hesitating, so is it a bit too intimate.
The host said that there is no problem with hospitality, but if the guest is ignorant of the heights of the earth and can't tell whether the other party is polite or sincere, then there will be a problem.
Hughes does not want his actions to be a cause of joy or embarrassment for everyone.
At this time, the aunt Aselia, who had only dazzling blonde hair in the appearance, probably saw Huss' discomfort. She pulled Huss to her side, hugged his shoulders lightly, and smiled at the count. Tao: "Father, your words are too straightforward. Look, our little Hughes blushed."
"Oh~hahaha~," the earl froze, then laughed more joyfully, and the laughter that everyone had just stopped stopped.
Hughes saw that the family was really happy, no matter how old or young. Although he was still the source of teasing, the elders made a good joke, if he could make his relationship with the Earl's family grow, he would not mind.
"Okay, don't laugh anymore. Hughes came and sat next to Granny Lily. They didn't dare to bully you." The Countess finally screamed after staring, and she was deeply influenced by her father for both children in the family I feel deeply helpless about this matter, so when I saw Hughes's polite and slightly shy child, I liked it in my heart.
"Okay, Grandma Lilly." Hughes sighed with relief. The scent from Aunt Athelia's arm on her shoulder was too strong. The nose was itchy, and she wanted to hit it hard. A sneeze.
"Sit down." Count Lucas saw that his old wife had spoken, and waved his hand with a smile, so that the family would sit down and talk.
Hughes got up at this moment, took the bottle of "Burning" from Nalco in the back, and offered it to the count with his hands respectfully, "This is a little gift I brought, I hope you like it."
