157. Rolle's decision

Luo Er caught fish in the afternoon and did not go on patrol. He simply rode a donkey and returned to his residence early to prepare early dinner for his daughter.

As for the Speaker's matter, I want to let it go and think about it carefully after calming down.

During this period, he did not return to his rental house, but stayed temporarily in his daughter's apartment.

Because of the previous attack, there were many fewer teachers and students living in this apartment. They were either in the hospital or fled to other cities, so this apartment did not look like a girls dormitory. Only then did Luo Er

I'm sorry to stay.

The little donkey is also kept in the garden downstairs. Anyway, it is a mess now and no one cares about it.

When he arrived at the apartment, Luo Er heard some movement in the kitchen. He quickly went over to take a look and found that his daughter had come back earlier than him?

She was standing on a low stool, slightly tiptoeing, and chopping some fresh vegetables on the cutting board.

There was Jeanne next to her, frying a piece of meat steak in the pan. The whole room could smell a strong aroma of meat, which made Rolle swallow his saliva.

During this time, supplies were very tight. Not to mention meat, even vegetables were in short supply. The carrots and sweetmeats originally stored in my left hand were used to feed the little donkeys and kittens.

He and Kelly had been eating canned food for a long time, and their tongues were almost numb from the preservatives.

"Dad, you're back!"

Keli turned around, raised the bright kitchen knife in her hand, and said hello.

"Teacher, I got some fresh ingredients today and brought them to you."

"Hmm, this is good, this is good. These days, both of us, father and daughter, are almost in the shape of cans."

Luo Er made a joke, walked closer to his daughter, stretched out his hand to rub her head, and praised:

"Knowing how to cook for daddy makes my daughter better behaved!"

Keli stood up on her tiptoes, and using the height of the low stool under her feet, she pressed her forehead against Rolle's chin.

Jeanne looked at the heartwarming scene between father and daughter, and felt warm in her heart.

It feels like a family!

Of course, it would be better if the teacher could give me another hug...

After a while, a sumptuous dinner was placed on the table.

After Rohr sat down, he first picked up a piece of bread, spread a thick layer of jam on it, and then picked up a washed green pepper next to him. With a flash of his left hand, he cut the green pepper into fine pieces with his fingers and sprinkled it evenly.

On bread.

Then he picked up a piece of fried egg with a fork, put it on the green pepper, and put an extra piece of bread on top to make a very unique sandwich.

Finally, he put the sandwich on the plate and pushed it in front of Kelly.

Jeanne on the side looked at this scene, feeling a little scared.

Ah, this...a sandwich made of jam, green peppers, and fried eggs...

It’s hard to imagine how horrible this smells...

But instead of refusing, Keli smiled sweetly, picked up the sandwich with both hands, brought it to her mouth, and took a small bite.

"Delicious!"

"Thank you, Dad! Dad is the best!"

Rolle nodded proudly, followed the same pattern, made an extra piece of such a sandwich, put it on a plate, and handed it to Jeanne.

"Ah this..."

Jeanne was a little hesitant and didn't dare to answer.

"Eating more green peppers is good for your health!"

"Although the combination is a bit strange, it tastes very good. I got this jam from my neighbor's house. It is said that it uses a secret recipe passed down from generation to generation. He himself was reluctant to eat it. I rummaged through the boxes and begged him for a long time to get this jam.

Small jar.”

Rohr said, raising the can-sized ceramic jar at hand, and then continued to make one for himself.

And Keli next to her was still helping:

"Yes, yes, it's really delicious. This jam is very sweet! Dad is usually reluctant to take it out. That means tonight's dishes are rich and he is in a good mood, so he is willing to take it out to eat."

Jeanne was stunned by the father and daughter. She doubtfully picked up the sandwich and took a small bite.

smell……

It’s really not bad?

This so-called neighbor's ancestral specialty jam does have its own uniqueness. It has a rich sweetness, with a hint of sweet pomelo's unique fragrance. It is sweet but not greasy, and lingers on your lips for a long time.

The original flavors of green peppers and fried eggs were completely covered by this sweetness, but they retained their unique tastes. The softness of the fried eggs and the crispness of the green peppers together created a distinct layered feeling.

Jeanne couldn't help but marveled that this combination, which should have been a disaster, was saved by this magical jam!

But strictly speaking, the main thing is that the jam is really delicious. Even if nothing is added, it is delicious enough just spread on the bread. Luo Er stuffs things into it purely for nutritional reasons.

"If I have the chance, I will definitely ask you how to make this secret jam."

Jeanne finished the sandwich in two bites and said seriously.

"Haha, if I have the chance, I will take you back to the village to have a look. The food in our village is all delicious. Jams, juices and wines, corn, carrots and suckling pigs, as well as various game and mushrooms in the mountains, are all one of a kind..."

Luo Er smiled and boasted about the delicacies in the village.

"Well! If I have another chance in the future, I will definitely go back with you and have a look."

Jeanne nodded vigorously.

At the same time, I was also thinking secretly in my heart.

After our country becomes stable and improves, I will relieve myself of the burden of being the leader and return to his hometown with my teacher...

But, what identity should I use to go back with the teacher?

A simple student, or...

Just when she couldn't help but start thinking wildly, Luo Er had already changed the topic and asked Keli:

"How is the situation at the hospital? Are there still many patients?"

These days, my daughter has been staying in the mission hospital, helping to take care of the patients, taking care of the doctors and protecting the hospital's security.

The originally mighty security team around the doctor has disappeared. He is now working alone, which makes Roel very worried about his safety, so he left his daughter at the mission hospital.

Fortunately, nothing serious happened, and the group of people who had been plotting evil against the doctor seemed to have really given up.

During this period of time, Keli has gained a lot of goodwill from the hospital and patients. She is as sweet and cute as a little angel. Just a slight smile can make people feel relaxed and happy, and the original pain has been relieved a lot.

.

She was wearing a dress and white stockings, holding a furry hammerhead shark doll in her arms, and a bear satchel on her waist. Her big burgundy eyes flickered, and she tilted her head slightly, with a sweet healing expression blooming on her little face.

smile.

Really cute!

She was even nicknamed by the people there: "The Smiling Healing Angel"

Most of the patients here originally suffered from mental trauma caused by mental pollution, so it is natural to heal them with a smile.

Keli quite likes this new nickname, it sounds much better than the Shining Star Sword Princess.

"But Uncle Wesley said I don't have to go to the hospital tomorrow."

"He also asked me to help thank you, Dad, for your help during this time."

Kelly conveyed the doctor's words.

"Ah...has the situation improved there?"

Rohr asked quickly.

Keli briefly talked about the situation at the hospital:

"Well, a lot of doctors and nurses have come from all over the country recently, and many patients have received treatment and gone home, so it's not so busy over there anymore."

"There is also a very tall and very big uncle following Uncle Wesley, who is like a hill. He said that he knows you and that you are his best friend. He also said that when things are finished, he will invite you to visit him.

Newly rehearsed opera.”

Luo Er nodded, knowing that she should be talking about Mr. Tank, who also rushed to the Imperial Capital from Duoduo Town.

This is good news. Even the situation at the hospital has eased and the situation is getting better and better.

So he turned to Jeanne and asked:

"What about Jeanne? I haven't seen you these days, what are you busy with?"

Jeanne didn't answer, her eyes looked a little dazed, as if she was wandering, and her hands were mechanically cutting a piece of steak on the plate.

Luo Er felt a little strange and reached out to poke her soft cheek.

"ah!"

Jeanne let out a scream, came to her senses, and quickly defended herself with a dance:

"No... no random thoughts..."

Luo Er patted her shoulder and comforted:

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous. Have you encountered any trouble? I saw you were so absorbed in thinking before."

"Well... there is a very troublesome problem, no... no... actually it is not a very troublesome problem..."

Jeanne said incoherently, her pretty face turned red instantly.

Her thoughts had wandered a little too far before, and she did encounter a very difficult problem:

If you marry the teacher in the future, how will you get along with Miss Keli?

This question was so difficult that she was fascinated by it.

Luo Er didn't quite understand her reaction, why was she blushing inexplicably?

Isn’t it similar to the physical education teacher’s situation? Could it be that there were some sequelae left in the dream?

"Are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

"No no!"

Jeanne waved her hands repeatedly, and then quickly started thinking, trying to find an excuse to excuse herself.

She actually found one:

"I have actually been thinking about the sect. These days, the empire's attitude towards us has changed somewhat..."

"Variety?"

Rolle looked curious.

"Well...His Royal Highness Anya's father personally met me and talked with me for a long time..."

Jeanne briefly recounted her conversation with the Speaker.

Generally speaking, the original aid conditions have become better, and various aids have become more numerous and comprehensive.

Instead of allowing people from the Restoration Sect to come here to study and further their studies, the Empire will send a team of dedicated teachers, doctors, engineers, etc. to the Fertile Valley to provide them with all-round guidance and assistance.

In addition, the empire will publicly recognize the legitimacy of the Restoration Sect and its regime and provide military assistance, instead of the previous purely diplomatic support.

This can almost be said to be comprehensive support.

Originally, Jeanne thought that the empire wanted to turn her sect into a puppet government and use it as a springboard to take control of the Valley of Plenty.

She also thought it was strange that you still want to stretch your hand out so long when people in your own capital have made such a fuss?

But strangely, the speaker did not mention those imagined excessive conditions.

He only asked for military mutual assistance, that is, when the empire was invaded and in crisis, the Restoration Sect should provide support.

Jeanne doesn't understand why the empire would put forward such unequal conditions that are disadvantageous to her. The empire is so powerful that you can't handle the situation. What's the use of us?

But the speaker did not answer her, but gave her a meaningful smile and asked her to take back this good news that was sure to make money.

Later, Jeanne thought about it over and over for several days, and felt that it was not her sect that the other party valued.

But my own teacher...

When the Speaker proposed these conditions, the person he really wanted to win over was not himself, but his teacher, the legendary Gray King.

The teacher is just one person who can make the empire value him so much and put forward such conditions...

Teacher, what a powerful and charming figure he is!

I can't even look at his back from a distance, and I'm not even qualified to be his student...

But I always dreamed of standing next to him and holding his hand...

In short, this is probably what Jeanne experienced. Other than that, the rest of the time she was busy convening the envoys she brought and other chores.

She basically told Roel the situation, except for the little thoughts in her mind.

After hearing this, Luo Er sat down and started thinking, tapping the back of his left hand with his right hand until it made a tinkling sound.

After a while, he finally spoke and said in a deep tone:

"This may be a good thing, it may be a bad thing..."

"You can agree, but you must be careful!"

Roll thought about it and only thought of one possibility:

The empire suffered heavy losses this time, and the demigods and extraordinary beings of the Society of Scholars suffered heavy casualties. They were in a period of weakness and were very afraid of enemy invasion at this time.

The empire needs a strategic buffer zone like the Fertile Valley to gain more space, so it fully supports Jeanne's sect.

Although there were many things that didn't make sense, Rolle couldn't think of any other answers.

It can't be that the empire values ​​​​him, the mentor behind the scenes, so it allows huge profits and wants to win over him from the side, right?

This is even more outrageous.

But no matter what, this has both advantages and disadvantages for Jeanne's sect.

With the empire's assistance, they can definitely develop better and faster.

But if the empire goes to war with other forces, they will probably be used as cannon fodder.

But if a world war does not break out, Jeanne and the others will be taking the benefits provided by the empire in vain, which is the ideal result of making a huge profit.

And he doesn't want a war to break out in this world. He still wants to enjoy his old age, watch his daughter become famous step by step, and watch the life of the village getting better and better.

It seems that I really have to agree to the Speaker's invitation.

If I were just an enthusiastic citizen, I would not be able to interfere or influence many things.

Luo Er muttered to himself for a while and had already made a decision.

----------

It's almost restored, let's continue updating.

The list is a bit short, please wait until it is longer.
