Chapter 332 The first movement of the poem of awakening (9): cold drink
Hearing Luna's tone, she became slightly annoyed:
"Mr. Scheler just suffered an accident while traveling at sea and lost his piano and baggage. In order to let him travel with the caravan to Tia City, I agreed to pay a gift of 50 pounds. You should not question it." My big personal decision."

The tall girl standing in front of her stared wide-eyed:

"You decided to donate 50 pounds? And let him accompany you to Tia City?"

"Sure enough, it's an important decision, especially considering your financial situation." Another girl who was also full of youthful vigor in the seat also smiled and said, "From the perspective of personal expenses, this is your freedom, but sister, Your money is really cheating"

"No, no, no." The standing girl played with the revolver, "Ann, you should understand that only being cheated of money is her freedom, not deciding to follow the caravan."

"No! I think it's okay to go together." Ann leaned back in the seat, with her hands on the pillow, and a pair of long and tight legs resting on the coffee table in front, "Camila, don't you think that this Scheler Is the gentleman's appearance very charming? And he played the troubadour with only a purple wire, how did he come up with it? I think it's too cute..."

"I don't like melancholic boys, and it doesn't prevent him from losing his musical instruments." Camilla's expression under the sun hat was half a smile, "Ann, those handsome boys who pursued you, They will be very sad after giving you so many affectionate gifts and not hearing any 'charming' comments from you."

"I still praised the word 'cute'." An said, "Of course, just now I just expressed my own aesthetics, not even a suggestion. I believe that in Tia City, I will meet many melancholy and charming people like Scheele. boy."

Next to him, Troy was asleep because of drunkenness, while Fanning was full of interest, leaning on the railing, playing with the strings, watching these two young and beautiful girls playfully arguing endlessly.

Questioning other people's occupations in public, evaluating other people's appearance, and discussing their emotional experiences without dignity. , as far apart as their geographic location.

At this time, a tall man with a tall figure, wearing a light leather hat, and carrying a sword and a pistol at the same time walked up to the head of the family Chretien, leaned over and whispered a few words.

The man himself thought softly.

In fact, in the waking world where the concentration of inspiration is extremely low, the dispersion and perturbation of spiritual thoughts is extremely obvious. With Fan Ning recovering [-] to [-] percent of the limit "candle" phase spirituality, he can clearly "hear" what he said what is-

"Promise him to follow."

Fanning was a little surprised.

This man dressed up like a retro knight
Although judging from his sentence patterns, it seemed that he also tacitly accepted the logic of "deceiving an ignorant little girl and making demands through her mouth", but he directly offered to accept the suggestion without explaining.

Moreover, Chretien's earnest nodding expression also seemed to be extremely trusting and respectful to the other party.

"Then, welcome to Mr. Scheler." The vice president of the Misin Chamber of Commerce immediately made a decision, "Luna acted on behalf of the generosity of the Chretien family. Mr. Le's meals, lodging and transportation."

Luna fiddled with the blood-colored jade bracelet on her wrist suspiciously, as if she couldn't understand the joint. In her expectation, even if her father reluctantly agreed in the end, she should be allowed to bear the expenses of board and lodging by herself.

I have already prepared for the actual payment of more than 50 pounds.

The eldest sister, Camilla, and the second sister, Ann, stopped arguing. The latter raised his head and made a playful look up to the sky.

After the man made a suggestion, he walked up to Fan Ning with a light smile, took off his light leather cap, held down his saber and bowed:
"Henry Massenecourt, whose hometown is in the Paradogos Islands, is an explorer by profession. This journey is a 'guide' entrusted by the Chrétien family. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Explorer?Delegator?guide?
It sounds like this Massenecourt is not yet a member of their family, but rather a role like an entrusted and paid consultant.

Luna's decision was obviously mainly questioned, why would he give a positive suggestion?It was also adopted by the employer Chretien?

"Hello." Fan Ning responded to his greeting while thinking in his heart. This was the first time he spoke after meeting everyone.

"What kind of water does Mr. Scheler like to drink?" Masseynecourt invited Fanning to sit at Chrétien's table, and sat down beside him.

"You are welcome," said Fanning.

There is no such thing as afternoon tea in the hot southern country.

Refreshing summer drinks can replenish water and restore energy. They are something as important as air that needs to be accompanied all day long, so that they are completely generalized in idioms and become the literal expressions of "cold water" and "drinking water".

"Three glasses of chocolate avocado juice."

Massenecourt turned and shouted towards the water bar.

"Add another cup." Ann, who had her hands on the pillow, retracted her long legs that were resting on the table, and took a seat at Fanning's table.

The waiter brought four large glasses and took away the eight silver shillings that lined the table.

Through the thin water mist on the wall of the cup, you can see its large pieces of light green avocado puree, as well as the drenched brown and black chocolate sauce.

Fanning thanked him naturally and picked up a glass, dug a large piece with a spoon and put it in his mouth, then raised his glass and took another sip.

"Is there no ice?" In the scorching summer wind, he felt that the temperature was very cool, but it was still far from the freezing point.

It looks like ten or twenty degrees.

"Ice cubes can't really cool off the heat, but in this kind of weather, it's easy to hurt the stomach, making people look at the table full of wine and seafood for days, helpless and sigh...Only the vulgar rural people will seek ice stimulation , this is as stupid as those guys who licked toads, oh, sorry! I'm not talking about you, I'm targeting us southerners..."

Massenecourt explained with an elegant smile, and later clarified again and again worried about misunderstandings.

Fanning didn't mind, in fact he was confused about what "those toad lickers" meant.

"Mr. Scheler is a foreigner, or he has tasted cold water that is said to come from the south, but that may not be authentic." Masseinecourt returned to the original topic, "Most of the cold water here does not add ice cubes. The water is not clear water but 'folk herbal tea', they are brewed from various leaves and fruits, although the concentration of the ingredients is low, but the taste and effect are different, it can be regarded as a cold water variety by itself..."

"The herbs you add to brew include mint leaves, noni fruit, cinnamon leaves, hibiscus flowers, and a little white ginger and shallots, and the choice of origin of the milk is also knowledgeable, and it needs to serve the reconciliation characteristics of different cold waters, because the avocado here It has a very thick and fatty taste, and the low-fat milk from Palmyra Ranch is more suitable..."

Fanning raised his glass again and took a sip.

First is the rich sweetness of chocolate sauce, and then the dense and thick avocado puree. Just when the taste is about to fall into the clichéd sweetness, the cool and refreshing juice instantly occupies the second half of the taste buds. Connected together, without the slightest sense of conflict, the missing moisture and energy are recovering, and the body is slightly jumping for joy.

He nodded approvingly, and felt that the price of 2 shillings was really cheap for such quality.

When I was working on the afternoon tea in the Turner Art Hall, I collected a lot of exotic drink recipes in different ways, including the chocolate avocado juice from the Southern Continent.

But obviously, such authentic detail handling is a knowledge blind spot for senior tea artisan Congreve. Add ice cubes"... The amazing thing is that several leading ladies and musicians can also enjoy drinking, and the flute lady even asked for another glass...

Looking back at certain moments, a faint smile appeared in Fan Ning's eyes under his long hair, the first time after waking up.

Ann thought he was smiling at her melancholy, so she stretched out the glass in her hand:

"Mr. Scheler, I want to ask you if you can sing well? Can you write poems and music on the theme of 'Love in the Palace'? Have you ever sung for the girl you like? ... Also, which one do you know? An instrument? Guitar? Bagpipe? Lute? Saxophone? Accordion? Violin or keyboard?"

"Ding—" Fan Ning clinked glasses with this young girl exuding vitality.

With the past lingering in his heart, his smile remained undiminished, and his tone was calm and breezy:

"A little bit."
