117. Food and Aftermath!

"Boom~"

"Monica, your cooking skills are really nothing to say"

Sauron's praise rang out from the restaurant on the second floor of the castle.

When he put a small piece of charcoal-grilled pork chop into his mouth, the fragrant soup immediately splashed in his mouth, constantly stimulating his taste buds.

The thick, plump flesh is chewy.

The salty and thick soup is locked in it.

Just press lightly.

The soup juice is squeezed out like water from a sponge.

The delicious food in his mouth made Zoro unable to help but move his index fingers.

The knife and fork in his hand kept dividing the pork chop on the plate and put it into his mouth again and again.

Not for a while.

Three whole charcoal-grilled pork chops the size of two palms went into Zoro's stomach.

Along with a large bowl of thick soup, many CDs were piled up on the dining table in front of Zoro.

Monica, who was praised by Sauron, always stood aside with a kind face and did not sit at the dining table like Thor.

"Young master, that's great!"

"As long as dinner suits your appetite."

As an older generation maid, Monica's stubbornness is beyond Sauron's imagination, especially when it comes to things that reflect rank.

After many attempts to persuade him to no avail, Sauron gave up.

Fortunately, she complied with Sauron's request.

That is to make a charcoal grilled pork chop for myself.

It's just that it's not as big as Sauron's.

As the saying goes, the upper beam is not aligned with the lower beam...

Sauron's somewhat crooked aristocratic dining etiquette also spoiled the two little girls on the table.

"Master silver, monkey eat!"

Thor on the side puffed out his cheeks and kept chewing the meat in his mouth, saying some vague words.

The same goes for Karma sitting next to Thor.

She had never tried eating this way before and immediately fell in love with this way of liberating herself.

Completely ignoring the worry in the eyes of the maid Alyssa opposite, she put the meat on the fork into her mouth one bite after another.

Enjoy the delicious food filling your mouth.

This is an experience I never had in my original home.

That home left her with not many good memories.

Just when the two girls had their mouths full of stains, Alyssa, the limited-time maid who came to the castle for the first time, seemed much more reserved.

Although the food on the plate is indeed tempting.

But she still controlled her inner desires.

The knife and fork in my hand were actually not touched a few times.

Zoro saw all these performances, but did not say them out loud.

People!

There is always a process of getting used to it.

"Monica, there is something I hope you can help me deal with tomorrow." Zoro wiped the grease around his mouth with a napkin and relaxed on the back of the chair.

When she heard that Sauron had something to tell her to do, Monica lowered her head slightly and waited to listen.

Alyssa was also full of curiosity about what Zoro told Monica to do tomorrow, and her ears were filled with curiosity.

"Master, what do you say?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just about Gray and Drew!"

"I'm going to Waterdeep tomorrow morning."

"I hope you can take my place and deliver two hundred catties of wheat, fifty catties of wheat flour and ten catties of wild boar to each of the two families."

"As for the reason, you probably know it, so I won't say more."

The old maid knew what Sauron meant when he mentioned these two families now.

I also very much agree with Zoro's approach.

The pillars of two families collapsed on the same day, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the remaining old, young, sick and disabled.

But as a maid in the castle of Isis.

She still needs to remind her what she needs to do.

"Master, I know you are kind-hearted, but you have given me too much."

"You also know that the wheat flour in the castle is different from what the dealer sells. Both the price and quality are not at the same level."

"No problem!"

Zoro waved his hand to Monica.

In fact, for him or other nobles, that little grain was not worth much money at all.

Whether it's imperial currency, farmland food, or anything else.

It's just a tool of class rule.

After all, a noble who has someone to serve is a true noble.

In the eyes of common people or poor people, it is expensive and they are reluctant to waste a single grain of food. In the eyes of nobles like Sauron, it is nothing.

"It's not worth much, I just sell some crab shells."

"I just don't want to disappoint those who have contributed to the territory."

After hearing Sauron's last words, Monica fell silent.

The human heart is made of flesh.

It wasn't that she wanted to deliberately obstruct anything.

She was also born into a serf family, and Monica knew the situation of serf families in the territory very well.

She knew very well what a huge blow the collapse of the family pillar would have on a serf family.

It's just that living as a maid for many years has made her unknowingly always behave according to the aristocratic way of doing things.

In fact, Monica fully agreed with Sauron's intention to compensate the two families.

Seeing that Zoro had made up his mind, Monica no longer stopped him.

"Since you have made your decision, young master, I won't say any more, old servant."

"Your kindness and kindness will surely make the ancestors of Isis proud of you."

"After daybreak, I will arrange for manpower to carry out your instructions."

Facing Monica's praise, Zoro's cheeks felt slightly hot.

But he thinks he is thick-skinned enough.

I can't stop such compliments.

It was obviously just doing an extremely ordinary thing according to what I thought in my heart.

"Um!"

"sorry to bother you."

"I'll go back and rest first, and I'll leave the rest of the things here to you first."

Say it.

Zoro got up and left the restaurant, heading towards his bedroom.

"It is Monica's honor to serve the young master."

Looking at Zoro's leaving figure, Monica bowed slightly.

It seems like I thought of something again.

Zoro, who had already reached the door of the restaurant, stopped.

"One more thing."

"If there is a shortage of manpower in the castle or territory, if there are suitable people, priority will be given to people from these two families."

"This matter is not urgent. Monica, you can just take care of it when the time comes."

"It's getting late. You guys should go to bed early. I'll leave here first."

Habitually said goodbye.

Zoro's figure completely disappeared from the restaurant.

"Master, walk slowly!"

Alyssa, who was sitting at the dining table, had been silently listening to the conversation between the master and the servant.

I feel incredible about what Sauron did.

In her world, few nobles would do these things for the serfs in their territory, because it would undoubtedly reduce their property.

Seeing the two little girls in front of her still focused on struggling with the pork chops on the plate, Alyssa couldn't help but smile.

Gently pick up the knife and fork from the plate.

Somewhat awkwardly cut into the pork chop.
