Alien world

Chapter 11 11. The Fourth Time

Aunt Susan patted her chest and rejoiced that Annan was back.Annan was worried about Tasia's health.

Back home, he saw the old Zolun who had survived the disaster sitting in the yard, telling the story of being rescued by a big guy.

Annan asked if it was Tasia who saved him, and the old Zuolun recalled stumbledly: "I didn't pay attention, but the one who saved me... seems to have horns..."

Tasia is fine.

Then Aunt Susan started to drive old Zoren out.Little Annan, who almost killed her, still wants to eat here?

Today's dinner is the barbecue brought back and some washed wild vegetables, cooked together, and served with black bread.

Annan was still breaking the black bread into the broth, and Aunt Susan finished the bread in a hurry.

"Are you eating so fast?"

"The housework hasn't been done yet." Aunt Susan cleaned up the housework that had accumulated during the day.

"Susan ate faster when she was younger."

Uncle Huolin followed Aunt Susan out of the kitchen, remembering the scene many years ago when Susan was so hungry that she swallowed a whole piece of black bread.

At that moment, Hollin realized that he had to marry Susan.

"Aunt Susan was like this when she was young..."

Annan has not yet learned words like fat and plump, but the charm of language is just the right amount of blank space.

"Of course not, she was still very thin before." Huo Lin recalled the girl he dug out from the pile of corpses, "At that time, in order to survive, we tried our best..."

Now... let's put it this way, as a woodcutter who lives in a town, owns a house and a family, Holling's physique is about the same as that of an ordinary professional, but standing next to Aunt Susan, he is like a monkey at the feet of a brown bear .

Annan ate very slowly, the black bread was bran bread, and seeing a doctor in this environment was a hassle, so he could only chew very carefully, chewing slowly, which Aunt Susan called "noble-like".

After dinner, he washed the dishes and spoons with Martin who was waiting to do the dishes, and Annan fell asleep in the simple town with no night life.

Early the next morning, Annan asked Aunt Susan to help him find a job with a daily salary.But it was still Uncle Holling who helped, he found a good job for Annan - a friend of his who cleaned the stables of a certain lord was sick, and Annan could help him for two days, just need to clean the stables and feed the horses.

Uncle Huo Lin went to contact him early in the morning and agreed that Annan would replace him for two days, and the reward would be 30 copper coins.

Annan could go out alone, but Aunt Susan was still worried and asked Martin to send him there.

After passing the bustling streets of Pinglin Town, a mansion with a temperament completely different from the town is located in the garden.The guards patrolling around are obviously much more frequent than Aunt Susan's house.

"Sooner or later, I will let Uncle Holly and Aunt Susan live in such a big house." Martin muttered with longing.

Going around the main entrance of the mansion, Annan saw the groom waiting for him, told Martin to go back, and followed the groom into the stable in the backyard.

There was no peculiar smell in the stables, and Annan did not need to do the most laborious feeding and cleaning of the horses, and only needed to clean up the excrement occasionally.

In his spare time, Annan admired the green plants and flowers in the garden, and occasionally looked at the whitewashed walls of the mansion, imagining how much Kinnar could buy this garden mansion.

Of course, his favorite thing is to chat with the groom.

But the groom didn't like it, so Annan went back to staring at the garden and the mansion in a daze.

In the afternoon, Annan's unfocused eyes suddenly fell to the silhouette on the terrace,

The purple lace dress outlined a plump figure, and her long wavy hair was casually draped over her shoulders.The red lips under the straight bridge of the nose are stunning.

Annan thought she looked familiar, and so did the women on the terrace.

Annan was still smeared with ashes by Aunt Susan before going out, but his black hair was very recognizable.

Is this the fourth or fifth time meeting the Wine Lady?

Just frowning vigilance destroyed the fateful encounter in front of him: "Are you following me?"

But it was a little far away, and Annan didn't quite understand it, so the interrogation that came with the wind became "You...me?"

At the critical moment, Annanfu thought of Mr. Fast's teachings to his heart.

"Yes……"

Ms. Wine's eyebrows gradually stretched, and the corners of her lips curled up.She remembered that the boy "professed" did not know the Common Language.

"Why are you here?"

This time Annan understood, picked up the pitchfork for picking up horse manure from under the shed, and held it up to show.

"Mr. Fast is gone, I'm working part-time!"

"I hope the next time I meet you won't be in my bedroom."

Annan understood half of it, guessed the other half, and said to himself that I want to be a mage and not a thief.

When she wanted to talk to the "big boss" in Mr. Fast's mouth, she had already turned and left the terrace.After the wine lady left, Annan had to go to the groom to continue practicing his spoken English.

The wine lady opened the knocked door, and Sir Sean said worriedly: "The servant said that there was a shout in your room, and I am worried that something may happen."

"Seeing a familiar little guy, by the way, I feel that there is no scenery outside the window."

"It's definitely not as good as Breeze City at the foot of the snow-capped mountains..." Sir Sean stepped aside and followed Ms. Wine, "You look familiar?"

"A boy working around. I want something to eat."

Sir Sean waved his hand and asked the servant to lead the wine lady to the restaurant first.He came to the balcony that smelled of perfume.

Look around the empty garden and the only stables you can see.

After leaving the terrace and the room, the man called the butler: "What's up with the garden and the stables recently?"

"Uh...a groom asked for leave yesterday, and a young man was hired to replace him...what's the matter, sir?"

"It's nothing."

The host said it was nothing, but the housekeeper didn't think so.He came to the stable in a hurry, and yelled at the young man who raised his head: "You..."

Those clear eyes made the butler inexplicably swallow back his usual meanness, and temporarily changed his words: "Unlucky guy, Sir has found you, get out of here before he troubles you."

The steward didn't know why Sir Sean asked that, he just didn't want trouble.

Annan had to leave the stable where he had only worked for a few hours, and he didn't even get today's salary.

The indiscriminate disaster he suffered was obviously related to the wine lady.

Without a job, Annan began to think about where to make money.There are spirits in taverns, coffee and tea in restaurants, and even poor houses have a few pieces of glass full of impurities, all of which blocked Annan's idea of ​​getting money by simple and easy means.

Gunpowder and paper?Annan doesn't know if this world exists, even if there is no him, it cannot be reproduced... But it is said that there is a spell that can recall forgotten memories.

It's just that this forms a paradox: Annan has to become a mage to remember the forgotten knowledge, and only when he remembers the forgotten knowledge can he have the money to become a mage.

On the way back, Annan still looked at the library with longing for knowledge, and the old man sitting in the sun behind the window.

For the next two days, Annan was forced to accompany Martin to chase wild dogs and adventure in the woods.On the third day, Mr. Fast finally came back from the city.
