Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece
Vol 8 Chapter 48: Awkward gift
Eunice did not speak, and looked at him equally eagerly.
The reason why Alcibidas is welcomed by the children is that he brings all kinds of gifts to the children every time he comes.
"Oh, this time, of course, I will bring you gifts. But you should not worry, first line up the team, one by one." Alcidadas smiled and touched the small Briantes. Head.
"Good team! Everyone is lined up!" Eunice immediately took out the big sister's style, according to the age, the commanding brothers and sisters quickly lined up the team.
"Awesome, Eunice!" Alcidadas praised and waved to his hand.
The slave immediately brought a pure white pony.
"Oh, she is so beautiful!" Eunice's eyes saw the little white horse, and it could not be separated.
"This is the pony I bought from the Bedouin of the nomadic race east of Canaan. It is said to be very good at running. Eunice, she is yours now." Alcidadas said with a smile.
"Really?! Great!" Eunice was so excited that she held a kiss with Alcidadas: "Oh, thank you so much!" After that, he ran over and took the pony. .
The slave was busy handing the reins to the hands of Eunice. The pony snorted and then docilely licked Eunice's hand, and Eunice shouted excitedly.
Alcibidas touched his face and smiled. He looked back at his relatives: "Apox, do you want a horse too?"
Apox tilted his head and showed a narrow smile: "Hey, if I want a white pony, can you take it out?"
This observant little guy! Alcibidas patted his shoulder lovingly and smiled: "I don't have a second pony, but I have this -"
With a wave of his hand, the slave took seven or eight bundles of sandpaper rolls.
Alcidadas pointed at them and said earnestly: "There are poems written by Egyptians, stories about Egyptian gods, part of the history of Egypt... I spent a lot of time, finally from Egypt. I bought it in the hands of Greek scholars in Naucatis. If you don't like it, I will be very sad!"
Apox immediately excitedly gave Alci Bidas a strong hug: "Thank you, I like it very much!"
"Oh, what about me?!" Briantes asked anxiously.
"Reassured, you can't miss you." Alcidadas said, the slave came over again.
"Yeah, puppy!" Briands screamed excitedly, only in the arms of the slave, and a milky white puppy was screaming.
"This is a Saruk dog. In Egypt, it is called 'Pharaoh's hound.' They are very good at running, and they are loyal to their owners. They can catch wild geese and hares, and dare to fight with crocodiles and hippos, and wait for you to grow up - "Alsidas's words have not been finished yet, Briantes has been excited to pick up the puppy, and ran away from the smoke."
"This child!" Alcidadas smiled and looked at the relative girl Avia who stood in front of him.
At this time, Ivya, who has always been quiet, has widened her eyes and looked straight at a little black cat in the arms of another slave.
Alci Bidas did not say much, and immediately put the kitten in her arms.
Ivya hugged the kitten in a hurry.
The kitten yelled and licked her hand with a beard.
Ivya thought it was so cute, she looked up and asked Alcidadas: "Hey, what is its name?"
"It has no name yet. From now on you are the master of it. Its name is of course taken by you." Alcibidas laughed.
So, Avia whispered the kitten with her hand and looked down.
"Brother, I heard that the black cat in Egypt is the embodiment of the gods..." Ai Ai Ge Si Si, who has been watching, said with some concern.
"In the hearts of the Egyptians, not only black cats, cows, crocodiles, eagle, leopards... many animals are the objects of their fear, but they do not prevent them from raising cats, raising dogs, killing crocodiles, hippos. Not to mention wearing here. Onia, is the land under the blessing of Hades, and the children are descendants of Pluto, what are the things to worry about!" Alcidadas said half-jokingly and half-heartedly.
Eglis released her worries and asked, "Have you been to Egypt this time?"
Alcibidas nodded: "Yes, I have specially brought you a set of high-quality cosmetics for the Egyptian Princess and Princesses, and also brought a set to Princess Christopher."
In the direction of Alcibidas's fingers, Ai Gnitz saw a number of beautifully-looking large wooden boxes that were carefully removed by the slaves from the brakes.
Ai Ge Ni Si did not quit, but also said with a little joy: "Big brother, you are too bothered!"
At the age of 40, she has already felt that the skin is beginning to relax, her hair is getting tarnished, and she really needs to dress and care. As far as she knows, in the Mediterranean, the country that is best at this is Egypt.
Thousands of years of history, affluent life, and the special environment (desert zone, wind and sand, sun exposure), make Egyptian women regardless of the rich and the poor, extremely valued beauty and dress up, they designed for a long time A large number of cosmetics, skin care products and decorations.
Just like the Egyptian cosmetics purchased by Alciidas, it is a variety of formulas made up of various ointments and protective oils, mixed with some plant extract juices, and various kinds of flowers, fruits and grasses for emollient and masking. The odor flavors and balms are carefully placed in large and small bottles and filled with two large boxes.
This does not include cosmetics on the face, such as finely ground mineral stone powder with raw materials such as cats, hippos or crocodile fat, used to apply eye shadow and eyelids, eyebrows, blush, lips... this is enough A lot of boxes.
And there are more kinds of accessories, and wigs are the most important one. Egyptians generally think that gray hair and natural baldness are extremely unsightly, so they invented wearing wigs and even tried to mix various formulas to help the gray hair restore its true color. These wigs are made of human hair and plant fiber mats, long, short, thick, dense... a variety of wigs, filled with a large box.
As for the exquisite earrings, necklaces, anklets, hairpins, etc., it is a wide variety of things. Alcibidas also carefully bought a lot of Egyptian tools for make-up, such as small scorpions, clips, small razors, eyebrow pencils made of ivory...
So I loved Grace and said that he was bothered, and that he was not wrong at all.
"Is Kloto still not coming back? I also brought him a gift." Alcidadas asked casually.
"He and Adoris are called to participate in military training. This time, the training is two days. In the evening, they will spend the night in the military camp. They will come back the day after tomorrow. Hey, the war is always there! I hope that Crowto will not be sent to the battlefield. "Aignis said with some concern.
Klotok Katex is almost 19 years old. As a grown-up citizen of Dionia, he has been involved in military training for more than a year. He is now a reserve soldier for the First Army. And at other times when he did not need to participate in military training, Davers arranged for him to go to the military department to dig errands to familiarize himself with all aspects of the military department.
As for why did Adoris also conduct military training in Turui? That’s because Davers found that the fourth army that had been sent to Adonis to Crotone was to hide his identity. Actually, the effect was not obvious. Instead, it made the life and training of Adoris inconvenient and simply put him. Turiyi was transferred back and is now a soldier of the Second Legion.
Did not see Clotto Kataks, Alci Bidas was slightly disappointed in his heart, he wanted to draw a little closer to Daves's pro-growth. Through the various signs that Aignis told him in the past, Davers may have used Klotok Katax as his heir. Unlike his father, Attilus, Klotok Katex is not worried about this. He knows that Klotok Katex has a deep affection for the mother and son of Ai Genis, even more than his mother, Kelly. Stoia.
Christovia heard that Alcibidas came and immediately asked the chef to prepare for the dinner.
Clithista didn't like Attilis. The scene she had two years ago made her very angry. Fortunately, it was just a family gathering. Afterwards, she was closely controlled by Dafoss and did not preach.
With the noble image of Christopher's 10,000 Buddhas in the Dionyrians, she does not think that Attilis's words will have any damage to her image~www.readwn.com~ not to mention wearing Fors has repeatedly said privately that Klotok Katex is his heir to the throne and is still concentrating on cultivating him. In addition, Ai Ge Nisi has always felt guilty about this, and she has a little more respect when she gets along with her. This makes Clithista still as good as I love it.
And Agnos's brother, Alci Bidas, is completely different from his father. Through Klysto's long-term observation: every time he comes to the house, he not only respects himself, but always presents. And I like every child very much, no obvious bias.
Therefore, Clithista certainly wants to reciprocate and warmly entertain.
"Your Majesty just sent someone back and said that he has some important political affairs to be busy today, so he will come back later. Entrust me and Ai Ge Sisi as a hostess to entertain you!"
Clithista smiled and glanced at Grace, then raised the wine in her hand and said to Alcibidas: "Thank you very much for bringing us so many gifts, and It is exactly what we need! I will honor you with Grace and I will express our gratitude! We also warmly welcome you!"
Alcibidas immediately expressed his gratitude. He took a sip of wine and listened to Christovia. "Because of the drought, not only the wheat seedlings died, but also the various fruit trees were seriously affected. Even the production of wine was also It has fallen sharply, so the food tonight is a bit simple, I hope you don't mind!"
