The butler's gaffe only lasted for a second. He quickly calmed down and put away the panic in his heart. He bent down to pick up the package that had fallen on the ground, and his standard smile returned to his face, as if nothing had happened.
's explained:
"I'm old, my hand slipped accidentally."
It was outrageous that an eighth-level powerhouse could have slippery hands, but no one asked, so Keli immediately introduced the two guests to Roel.
"This is Sister Anya whom I often mention in my letters."
She said, jumped up to Anya, and hugged her arm affectionately.
"Hello, Uncle Roll."
Anya lifted up both sides of her skirt, bowed slightly, and made a very solemn aristocratic salute.
"Well, not bad, he is a good boy."
Rohr also nodded with satisfaction.
Anya's appearance and figure are impeccable. She is a beautiful girl of extremely high standards. She looks like a paper figure in a painting. It was drawn by teacher Tony. If her ears were pointier, she would look more like one.
Her temperament and self-cultivation are equally impeccable. She looks like a well-educated noble lady, well-educated, generous and decent. I hope Keli will follow this path in the future.
She shouldn't be a princess or something, right?
Luo Er thought to himself.
Keli jumped back to him again, stretched out her arms, raised her little face and looked at him, making a "wanting to hug" gesture.
After Luo Er picked her up, Keli lay in his ear and whispered Anya's identity.
The Duke's daughter? The Emperor's niece? She really is a princess...
"Sister Anya doesn't want her identity to be exposed, so daddy, please don't tell others!"
Keli forced a serious look on her small face and said seriously.
Roll nodded.
Then Anya introduced the housekeeper Odo, only mentioning that he came to her two years ago and took good care of Keli, but did not mention his rank or strength.
Keli also added next to her:
“The pudding made by the butler is so delicious!”
"It's my pleasure."
The butler also touched his chest politely and saluted.
Although on the surface it looked like he was dealing with it appropriately, the housekeeper was still thinking about what happened just now.
He had carefully observed Rohr at close range, and it was true that he did not sense any fluctuations in power. His body was relatively strong, but only at the level of an ordinary person.
With my rich experience and experience, I am just an ordinary villager.
What happened before that?
The housekeeper couldn't figure it out for the time being, so he could only continue to observe and at the same time be alert in his mind.
Luo Er didn't notice anything strange, so he asked Keli to take the guests home first, while he picked some fruits and brought them back to entertain the guests.
Anya looked at the fruit forest where Luo Er went. The sweetheart fruits hanging on the branches were all round, plump and bright in color. Just looking at them made her appetite whet her appetite. She couldn't help but praise:
"Keli, your fruit trees are growing very well."
"No, no, no, this is the neighbor's house."
Keli quickly explained.
Anya: "?"
After picking back a large basket of sweetheart fruits, Luo Er turned to the neighbor's pig pen and looked at the trembling little suckling pigs.
"Emmmm, you look worried?"
"You are beautiful, aren't you?"
As he spoke, he picked up two little suckling pigs, one on the left and the other on the right.
The old sow next to me dared not speak out...
After handing the suckling pig to the fat man in the village and telling him to use his best craftsmanship to entertain important guests, Luo Er took a few bottles of fruit wine with him and went back to accompany the guests.
Luo Er lives in the best house in the village, a two-story building made of blue bricks, which looks like a small villa.
In the living room, the housekeeper had already unpacked the packages he had carried along the way and laid out the prepared gifts one by one.
Most of them are men's clothing and accessories. There are seven or eight sets of gentleman's suits such as suits, leather shoes, pocket watches, hats and canes.
The rest include silver candlesticks, dinner plates and cutlery, standard aristocratic tea sets, etc.
The most outrageous thing is that there are actually two paintings and something that looks like a shield?
"What's this?"
Luo Er mentioned the shield-shaped thing with a puzzled look on his face.
This thing is very well made, the material is solid and thick, and the surface is engraved with exquisite and gorgeous patterns, forming the shape of a blooming rose, which is lifelike.
"Such a beautiful shield? Aren't you afraid of it being scratched? And why is there no grip on the back?"
Roll asked in confusion.
Keli and Anya looked at each other, not knowing what to say...
This thing is not a shield, but a badge personally awarded by the emperor. It is also the second-grade silver rose guardian badge of the empire, second only to the highest-grade golden rose, in recognition of Keli's outstanding contribution in the defense of Qingquan City.
Because it was obtained in a defensive battle, it was made into the shape of a shield. Although it is okay to use it as a shield in terms of material and craftsmanship, the correct way to use it is to hang it in the showroom to honor your ancestors.
Keli obviously didn't want her father to know that she was bullying the little monster outside. Otherwise, he would be so worried that he couldn't sleep and would talk about it for a long time, and he would definitely not let her go out in the future.
Then he had an idea and quickly explained:
"Because the craftsman didn't know my father's hand shape, he didn't install a handle."
Anya also reacted and cooperated:
"Yes, yes, uncle should also know that things like shields must be handy."
Luo Er suddenly realized it and nodded repeatedly:
"So this is it? I am a country bumpkin who is really ignorant, but you city people are more considerate!"
Keli and Anya secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But immediately I heard Rohr say again:
"Go back to that fool and help me install a grip."
The two girls were speechless for a while...
Roll put down his shield and looked at the two paintings again.
Surprisingly, hanging paintings is very much to his liking?
One painting shows Keli standing on a bell tower, eyes closed, hands clasped on her chest, humming a ballad softly, her silver horse tails fluttering in the wind, and white doves flying high on both sides.
Another painting shows Keli sitting at the desk, reading a heavy book seriously, with a serious and focused expression. There is a large bookshelf behind her, and a faint soft light shines from the window next to her, which fills the air.
Full of literary girlish temperament.
Both paintings are in a realistic style, and the artist's skill is very high. Keli is painted lifelike, and the other colors are rendered very well, almost like an art photo on earth.
Luo suddenly smiled from ear to ear, he really liked this gift.
It seems that my daughter is really doing what she expected outside, studying and studying seriously, and embarking on the growth path of a lady.
You are so sensible and obedient!
She is indeed my cutest daughter!
Keli and Anya also laughed happily when they saw that Luo Er liked these two paintings so much.
Finally, the painter's high commission and several hours of pretentiousness were not in vain.
