Ryan walked over and opened the door. Outside the door stood a little girl of fourteen or five years old. She was struggling to hold up a large wooden tray. On the wooden tray was a large glass of water, a few pieces of black bread, and a A small plate of bacon. After seeing the door open, the little girl said in a sweet voice: "Is it Uncle Fabia? Grandpa asked me to bring you some food and water."
Ryan smiled at the little girl and immediately took the big wooden plate from her hand. After the little girl had her hands empty, she breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out her hand to wipe the sweat on her forehead, and then said to Ryan: "Fabby Uncle Ya, you are such a good person."
Ryan bent down and said to the little girl: "Who is your grandfather? Let me guess, is it Bill?"
"Yes." The little girl agreed, and then said to Ryan: "Although the portions of these foods are a little smaller, I didn't eat them secretly."
Ryan laughed dumbly. He patted the little girl's head lovingly and said to her, "I know, oh, by the way, what's your name."
"My name is Barbara." The little girl replied loudly: "It will be dinner time in a few hours. If you are full after eating these simple foods now, you will not be able to enjoy that sumptuous dinner at night. .”
"Haha, Barbara, how did you know there was a sumptuous dinner tonight?" Ryan held the wooden plate in one hand and took Barbara into his room with the other.
Barbara puffed up her chest and said, "Because Miss Adela and Master Weir are coming today, Master Toby will receive them well. I saw them roasting a tarant in the backyard in the morning."
Ryan's heart moved. Logically speaking, if his father was seriously ill, hosting a banquet for another family whose enemies and friends were unknown, if there was no other meaning in itself, no one would believe it. Could it be that Toby was planning to fight with him tonight? The heirs of the Saranar family discussed marriage.
Ryan said in a complimentary tone: "Barbara, you are really capable. Can you tell me about tonight's banquet?"
"Humph, of course Barbara is very capable, but I know everything." Barbara said proudly: "Take the main course of the banquet as an example. They started smoking it on the fire early this morning. Yes, I know that they put a Talon sheep in the belly of the Talon cow, and in the belly of the Talon sheep is a Fengpeng. In the belly of Fengpeng is an Edelweiss rabbit. In the belly of the Edelweiss rabbit is One... one... Oh, I can't remember, it's an egg of some kind, and that egg will be given to the most precious guest at the banquet."
Of course Ryan knew that the dish Barbara was talking about was a major dish in the imperial banquet, but the more distinguished the host, the more things were baked layer by layer, and the longer it took. If Luke had hosted the banquet in person, there would have been twelve different animals, and they would have been put on the fire three days ago.
But if what Barbara said is true, then tonight's banquet will be very important, because Toby actually brought out such a big dish. I don't know who he will give the baked egg tonight, Ryan maliciously guessed It's probably Adela, and maybe Toby will propose a gimmick like a proposal on the spot.
After asking Barbara a few more questions, and seeing that the little girl was just talking about the preparations for the banquet, Ryan smiled, took out a silver coin from his body, and put it in Barbara's little hand. La said happily: "Thank you Uncle Fabia, now I can buy a wooden sword for my brother."
After sending Barbara away, Ryan sat casually at the table. He picked up a piece of black bread and slowly ate the bacon. Ryan chewed every bite of food very carefully, and then swallowed it. Although the food was a bit rough, Ryan didn't care and ate it with relish.
From Barbara's innocent words, Ryan keenly felt that tonight's banquet would likely change the situation of the entire Cassano Plain. Once the marriage between the Emilio family and the Saranal family is successful, and With Toby's mother's side, Toby's Seremis family power, Toby will become the master of the entire Cassano Plain.
Obviously, this will greatly affect the interests of the other two families. They have survived 200 years of brutal struggle until now. How can the other two families be just ordinary people? How can they sit back and watch Toby's strength? And if Toby is not sure, how can he rashly ask the Saranal family? If this is rejected by the other party, then what will happen to the face of the entire Emilio family? A war may break out immediately.
So no matter what kind of ending tonight is, the situation in the entire Cassano Plain will undergo huge changes. However, Ryan does not take this to heart. Anyway, now the imperial capital has no power to care about this place. This place really has something to do with Ryan. The only person involved is Vivian.
But if war really breaks out, civilians like Barbara will have a hard time. Of course, Ryan is not that great yet. He will be prepared to end this troubled world on his own for the happiness of people on the entire continent. He can do it. , nothing more than ensuring the safety of relatives and friends around you, nothing more,
After Ryan swallowed the last bite of bread, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door. Ryan walked to the door in a few steps and gently opened the door. The man outside the door stretched out his hand and was about to knock on the door, but found that The door had been opened, and Ryan was standing right in front of him, so he said respectfully: "Is this Mr. Fabia? Miss Vivian asked me to invite you over."
Ryan first looked up and down at the man in front of him. He was wearing a servant's uniform similar to that of Old Bill. His skin was dark and the joints of his fingers were calloused. It seemed that he should be a servant here, so he nodded and answered. Said: "Okay, then you can lead the way."
The man didn't say much, just bowed respectfully, and then walked quickly to lead the way. Ryan closed the door and followed the manservant.
After walking for about five or six minutes, the male servant took Ryan to a remote courtyard. The male servant pointed to a slightly dilapidated door in the corner of the courtyard and said to Ryan: "That's right there. Miss Vivian just let I’ll bring you here, you can go there by yourself, I’ll leave first.”
After saying that, the manservant left quickly, and before leaving, he diligently closed the door of the entire courtyard. Listening to the manservant's footsteps gradually disappearing, Ryan felt a little strange in his heart. If Vivian really had something For important matters, she will naturally come to her in person. If she can't leave, it's not impossible to ask someone to convey a few words to her, but why should she be taken to such a remote place
At this moment, a woman's voice sounded: "Go to hell." Immediately afterwards, Ryan heard a whistling sound from behind his head, and a wooden stick as thick as an arm hit the back of Ryan's head.
