Xiwei didn't know that Ye Hao had become his "half-brother" unintentionally.
But even if he found out, he would just laugh it off. Destiny's brother, wouldn't it be very honorable to tell him?
…
It was evening, and Xiwei and Clemont returned to Winterfort, dusty and dusty.
On the way back to Winter Keep, the two griffons were so hungry that they couldn't fly. Xiwei had no choice but to stop and let the two idiots go find food on their own, and then set off again after they were full and full. It took a lot of time.
Sivey, who had just returned to Winter Castle, first arranged for Goodbye to follow Clemont to report to the Guards, and then ordered two knights, one to find the priest, and the other to ask for Mrs. Chris.
The priest was invited to treat the bruises on little Loli's body. Mrs. Chris is Xiwei's wet nurse. She knows the etiquette and work of maids well, and is absolutely loyal to the Golden Lion family. Such a person is just the right person to teach. Lori.
After arranging things, only Xiwei and Loli were left in the empty lord hall.
Xiwei looked at the timid girl not far away with confusion, wondering how the harmonious atmosphere between the two people had returned to the original point.
Lori lowered her head and stood solemnly in front of the conference table, anxiously awaiting her fate.
From birth to now, she has spent most of her time wandering with her brother on the border of the Cologne Empire. Today is the first time she has eaten bread as soft as clouds, and the first time she has seen a flying giant beast with the head of a eagle and the body of a lion. It was the first time to fly so high that I saw such a huge town and the majestic and glorious Winter Castle.
All of this subverted her understanding. The man in front of her, who claimed to be the lord, used a direct and rough way to make her understand the world again, and also made her realize her ignorance and insignificance.
The inferiority and weakness in her bones made her feel ashamed, and the noble and luxurious decorations and furniture around her made her even more overwhelmed. She felt that she might soil this expensive plush carpet with every step she took.
"Lord...Lord, does Loli really just need to be your personal maid?"
The girl looked at her toes and asked coquettishly.
Xiwei gave the girl a strange look. Why did the griffin, who had been sitting there all afternoon, still have doubts? But he still patiently repeated to the girl:
"Yes, my job is probably to take care of my daily life. Don't worry, I am different from other nobles. I don't have so many rules. As for the specific work content of the personal maid, Mrs. Chris will teach you later. of."
"oh……"
Lori nodded timidly, but still seemed confused and a little unbelievable.
She had heard of maids, but she didn't know if the lord's personal maid was the same as what she knew.
At the bottom of society in the human empire, maids are a common job for young women. It is common that almost two-thirds of young girls choose to be maids, because being a maid can not only learn some skills, but also receive some wages. , and occasionally will be rewarded with some items by the owner.
However, this does not mean that the job is great. How the maid fares usually depends on the attitude of the master and her family.
Although maids are theoretically members of the master's family, it is common for them to be beaten, scolded, and abused, and they may even become a tool for the master, his sons, and servants to vent their desires.
If she really couldn't survive, which girl would be willing to bet on her own destiny.
But Lori had no choice, she was alone and without a friend.
After her brother died, the farmers who lost part of their income would no longer be kind enough to keep her.
If it weren't for the lord, she might have died in that alley. Even if she survived by chance, she would just starve to death on the wandering road like other demi-humans, or be captured and sold as a slave, and eventually be abused. lethal.
At least she felt the long-lost warmth from the Lord.
"Lori gets it...Lori will work hard to be a good maid."
Feeling Xiwei's soft gaze, Loli mustered up some courage, but her voice was still not much louder.
"As long as you have this heart."
Hearing the girl's statement, Xiwei smiled slightly.
Looking at the girl's tattered clothes and dirty face, he couldn't help feeling a little distressed.
And to be honest, the girl didn't know how long it had been since she took a shower. Not to mention her hair was a mess, and she also had a strange smell. She didn't feel it when the wind was blowing on the gryphon before, but now the two of them are in the same room. It's much more obvious inside the house.
Common people in this world are generally unwilling to take a bath, and so are some nobles in remote territories. They actually think that taking a bath will wash away the blessings of the gods. Some people even never take a bath for their entire lives.
Anyway, Xiwei can't accept this kind of foolish habit. He may not be able to control the number of people in his territory, but in his castle, he will strip off anyone who doesn't take a bath and hang them at the entrance of Winter City. sky.
So Xiwei said to Loli in a tentative tone:
"It will be some time before Mrs. Chris comes over. You probably haven't taken a shower for a long time. Go take a shower now and then put on some clean clothes."
Loli heard the meaning of Xiwei's words, sniffed, her petite body trembled slightly, a blush crept up her neck and climbed up to her cheeks, and the fluffy ears on her head also twitched.
(/へ\*)
The big tail behind her was waving uneasily, showing the girl's restless heart.
Xiwei couldn't help laughing when he saw the girl's cute micro-expressions. He thought in a wicked way that if he put a pot of water on the girl's head, it might boil instantly.
Under Loli's surprised eyes, Xiwei held her hand.
"Winter Castle is quite big. If you can't find the bathing place by yourself, I'll take you there."
…
In the luxurious bathroom of Winter Castle, Loli's face was flushed by the heat as she soaked in a bath filled with rose petals.
She felt her body was light and airy, as if she was about to fly.
Luo Li hadn't taken a bath in a long, long time, let alone using clean hot water with the scent of roses in such a luxurious bath.
Occasionally she felt like she was dreaming.
It's not that she doesn't care about cleanliness. As a cute girl, she actually cares about her personal hygiene.
But since the death of her parents, Loli has been living with her brother. How can the two of them wander around and have a chance to take a bath?
The land on the border of the Cologne Empire is barren and the lakes are in dangerous jungles. Loli dare not approach them at all.
Don't even think about taking a bath in a farmer's home. The old woman is a believer who strongly resists bathing. Besides, clean water is very expensive. Ordinary civilians can't even eat, so how can they have the money to pay attention to their own hygiene? ?
As she thought about it, the girl's nose felt sore and tears welled up in her eyes.
It would be nice if my parents and brother were still here, so they might also be able to taste the soft bread like white clouds.
The girl always felt that she was not worthy of the lord's kindness to her. She was not qualified. She was just the humblest subhuman.
She pessimistically believes that the price may have been marked behind all this.
But regardless of whether the matter of "just being a personal maid" was true or false, even if the lord asked her to die, Loli would still not have any complaints.
Lori stood up from the bath, dried her body with a towel, then stood on her tiptoes slightly and took down the clothes from the shelf next to her.
It was a set of black men's pajamas. It was so wide that it could almost be used as a quilt for her.
Are they the lord's clothes?
Loli's face turned red, and the scene of her being held in Xiwei's arms today appeared in her mind unconsciously.
Her body twisted uncomfortably, and then, somehow, she slowly put her face against her clothes, her little nose twitched, and she took a deep breath, as if she was reliving the smell of that person.
