Lunch wasn't a sumptuous meal, but it was definitely a decent outdoor barbecue feast.
Four golden roasted hares were flipping on the grill, and the lamb skewers were lined up in a row. The scene of hundreds of lamb skewers being flipped together was quite spectacular, and the aroma of barbecue wafted through the air without restraint.
Amy, Anne, and Anna squatted beside the grill and stared at the roasted hares on the grill, swallowing their saliva at the same time.
"Roasted hares are super delicious, really," Amy recommended to Anne.
"Roasted lamb is also delicious," Anna followed suit and recommended.
Anne nodded in confusion. It wasn't clear if she understood, but her gaze never left the grill.
"Alright, come over and eat." Meg placed the hundreds of lamb skewers on a plate on the long table and said to the girls who were chatting beside him. Then he took the roasted hares off the grill.
Roasted hares, of course, had to be torn apart by hand to have a soul.
The three children who had been watching the whole time each got a rabbit leg, and the others took their seats. After Meg sat down, they began to eat.
Anne grabbed the rabbit leg and blinked, then turned to look at Amy, who was chewing on the rabbit leg with both hands.
"You have to bite on this." Amy swallowed the rabbit meat in her mouth and said to Anne. She even demonstrated by taking a big bite and chewing happily.
"Awoo."
Anne thought for a moment, then copied Amy and took a bite of the rabbit leg. Her clear eyes suddenly lit up.
It was a very unique taste. She didn't know how to describe it, but her mood became better because of it.
She tried to chew, and the rabbit meat melted in her mouth. This was the first time she had tasted it, and it was as if her mouth had suddenly opened up. The joyful and pleasant feeling made her smile uncontrollably.
After swallowing the rabbit meat in her mouth, she couldn't help but take another bite. One bite after another, she simply couldn't stop.
"Is this what you mean by delicious?" Anne thought to herself.
Meg looked at Anne, who was eating happily, with a smile on his face. Although Anne had just been born, her body was already that of an 11 or 12 year old girl, except for her mental age, so she could eat harder food like roasted rabbit.
Moreover, from the fact that she could learn how to put on clothes while looking at the tablet, she also had a very good learning ability. Presumably, after a period of learning, she would be able to communicate with them in sign language.
After lunch, everyone packed up their tents, and prepared to return to Chaos City.
Meg called out to Amy, who was playing nearby. Just as he was about to call out to Anne, he saw her standing in front of the unicorn and gently stroking its head. Then she helped untie the straw rope around its neck and waved at it.
The unicorn rubbed its head against her hand before reluctantly leaving.
"Let's go, Big Sister Anne. It's time for us to go home." Amy skipped forward, and held Anne's hand as they walked back.
The golden dragon rose into the sky, and carried everyone on its journey south.
…
The news of Chaos City's crisis being resolved quickly spread across the Norland Continent with the departure of the various powerhouses.
The residents of Chaos City who had left because of the news of the crisis also embarked on their return journey.
"Mother, you have to make a decision for me. Nothing happened when we came out this time. You have to ask Father to withdraw his decision when we go back. If Gloria really inherits the family business, then our Family Moreton's huge business will only end up in the hands of an outsider. " Cyril, who had just received the news of returning to Chaos City, rushed to the old lady's room with his wife and two children.
"Yes, Mother. We have a hard life. My husband has done his best for the family, and even sacrificed his life for it. That little lass wants to snatch the family business away just because she knows how to say a few words to please the chief. This is really intolerable." Aviva was also sobbing.
"Grandmother, look at what we're wearing now. We're not even as good as servants. Gloria thinks that she's the chief's favorite, and spends lavishly. She's going to ruin this family sooner or later. You have to make a decision for us," Herty and Hernie said coquettishly as they swung Old Lady Denise's hands.
"That little lass is too much. Don't worry, Grandmother is here. I will make a decision for you. It's not the time for a junior like her to speak in this family." Old Lady Denise looked at her precious son and two granddaughters with heartache, and said angrily.
…
"Arrange for the flying steeds to set off tomorrow morning to return in three batches. After getting off the flying steeds outside the city, they'll enter the city through different gates," Gloria instructed an old servant.
"Yes." The old servant nodded. He looked at Gloria, and said, "Young Mistress, are you going to the cloth workshop in the afternoon? Do you need me to prepare the carriage for you? "
"Yes. I'm going to leave now. You can ask the carriage to wait for me in the front yard." Gloria nodded.
"Yes." The old servant nodded, and quickly strode away.
Gloria took out a notebook, and also left the yard. She boarded the carriage that was already prepared.
It was rare for her to come to Rodu, so Gloria didn't idle around for the past two days. She personally went to a few cloth workshops to check on the progress of the processing of the cloth stock, as well as the distribution of the new cotton yarn.
Geoffrey's decision had been announced. Everyone knew that Gloria had replaced Cyril as the successor of Family Moreton. It was also a little surprising that she was so concerned about this business that had been abandoned by her family.
Gloria didn't think too much about it. She only knew one thing: as long as Geoffrey didn't abdicate, she would only be a successor.
Cyril had been the successor for more than 20 years, and Geoffrey only needed to say one word to get rid of him.
However, as long as the textile industry could turn its losses into profits, it could become a real business that truly belonged to her, just like Suede.
And with Mr. Meg as an excellent partner, she was very confident in this.
I wonder if Mr. Meg saw that letter … Fortunately, Chaos City is fine. But if he saw the letter and left … I wonder if he knows that the crisis in Chaos City has been resolved … Sitting in the carriage, Gloria couldn't help but worry. She thought about how she had stuffed the letter under Mr. Meg's door, and felt her cheeks burning.
…
Rodu, the royal palace.
"Your Majesty, His Highness the second prince and Princess Vanessa have arrived in Rodu. His Highness the second prince has fainted due to the exhaustion and shock of the journey. The royal doctors and the magic casters of the Magus Tower are treating him right now." A servant quickly strode into the royal study, and knelt on the ground.
"Trash. He fainted after coming back to Rodu." Andre slammed the table with his face flushed red with anger.
The servant kneeling on the ground trembled, and didn't dare to say anything.
"Summon Sean and the minister of the interior to the palace for a meeting," Andre said in a low voice.
