Chapter 118 The first patient(1/3)
Dinner was something Alfred bought on his way back, including pancakes, grilled chicken, and vegetable salad.
It has to be said that Alfred really understood his young master's taste and did not buy butter bread to go with barbecue.
However, for Karen, he is more accustomed to dealing with it casually, which should be: pork head meat, soy sauce beef, peanuts and cold side dishes.
However, even if this combination can be purchased outside, the taste varies greatly.
Let's all sit down and eat together,
Karen reminded Healy: "The cats and dogs at home need to be treated like humans."
Alfred explained: "Cats need a cup of coffee every morning and afternoon. If we are not at home at noon, you need to prepare a meal for the cat, which should be as exquisite as possible. Afternoon tea and daily fresh fruit plate cannot be missing.
As for dogs... when you prepare something for a cat, prepare something for the dog as well, as long as it’s a little lower grade than for the cat.”
"Woof!" the golden retriever shouted dissatisfied.
Pu'er was secretly happy at first, and then he was shocked: No, the radio demon is splitting our alliance!
Karen has always been willing to take care of Pu'er and Kevin. As for other things, such as Hilly's salary and treatment, Karen didn't ask. He believed Alfred would arrange it;
I have a basic salary of 10,000 reals per month, and my share of the salary will only be higher than the basic salary, and I can afford to keep a few more maids.
After all, this is York City, one of the most prosperous cities in the world, and there are too many rich people who "moan for no reason".
After eating something casually, Karen went back to the second floor to lie down on the bed and read the newspaper. The heating in the house would not be turned back on until tomorrow. After dark, there is no place more comfortable than the bed.
The golden retriever didn't need to be told, he took the newspaper in his mouth and turned on the radio.
Karen began to read newspapers. He liked to read the "Wien Daily" because it was not a restricted regional newspaper. Although it would allocate part of its space to report news about Wien, most of the news was still outside, which was completely fine.
It can be called the "International Times".
In other words, as an empire with a huge colony, Venn's major domestic news is a type of "international news".
The King of York was hospitalized after attending a series of coronation ceremonies.
A smile appeared at the corner of Karen's mouth. What older people fear most is change. Maybe if they continue to operate according to inertia, the old man can live for a long time, but if he insists on making troubles, even if it is to make things beneficial to physical and mental health, it will not work.
May result in an early end.
People are like this, countries are like this...even churches are like this.
"Resistance forces appeared in the Kotak region, attacked a town and established a provisional government."
The Kotak region is in the southern continent, where most of the desert areas are located. The southern continent has always been a colonial carve-up site for empires like Venn. Various empires have launched wars here to seize the territory of the indigenous people.
However, the report also pointed out that this time the resistance in the Kotak region originally planned to negotiate with the Venn government to obtain an autonomous region and a small amount of autonomy. However, after the death of the Queen, the resistance seemed to have received funding from other empires and gave up.
peaceful means.
Continue to read the newspaper,
The bedroom door was pushed open, and Hilly walked in holding a broom.
"Sir, other places have been cleaned. I'll clean it here too."
Although Karen was a little surprised, he still nodded and said: "Okay."
Pu'er silently raised his head and stared at Xili.
Hilly started to clean. In fact, she regretted it now. Because she had no experience as a maid, she did not think that she was not suitable to enter the bedroom to clean at this time, especially when the male master was still lying on the bed.
But she had completely ignored this point because she was immersed in the idea that she had to work hard to repay her employer after receiving such a high salary.
But now it would be even more embarrassing if she just left like this, so she could only continue cleaning.
Karen looked at her figure sweeping the floor with her back to him,
Um?
Was she wearing jeans this afternoon?
Especially when she bends down, the arc that pops out.
How should I put it, not to mention men, even women can’t help but look at it more.
However, Karen still lifted the newspaper to cover her sight. She was engaged, and Eunice's legs had been touched. She really shouldn't have any other thoughts while she was living alone;
It's not that "looking" means sin, but his gaze is likely to put pressure on the new girl and make her think wildly.
Pu'er was snuggled next to Karen and taking a nap with his eyes closed. After Hilly came in, he also raised his head to look at her. As he looked at it, the newspaper picked up by Karen also blocked his sight.
Pu'er was somewhat dissatisfied and stretched out his paws to press down the newspaper, but Karen pulled up the quilt and covered the cat's face.
After cleaning, Hilly walked to the door and bowed to Karen:
"Sorry, sir, I have no experience. I will clean during the day next time."
"It's okay, do you want to go back later?"
"Yes."
"Let Alfred drive you back."
"My home is not far from here. I can walk back by myself without bothering Mr. Alfred."
"It's too late now. It's not safe for you to go back alone. You can go home after dinner starting tomorrow."
"Yes, sir, you are a really good man."
"Um."
Karen continued to read the newspaper, and Hilly walked out and closed the bedroom door.
"I don't believe you don't feel itchy." Pu'er whispered, "If you stay with me, you will inevitably make mistakes."
"You want to fire her?" Karen asked. "At least you have to see how she prepares coffee and meals for you tomorrow, don't you?"
"What you said makes sense." Pu'er was convinced.
She was originally captured by Karen using "pickled fish" and "squirrel mandarin fish". This very old cat still has the temperament of a young lady.
"Okay, I'm going to bed, I have to go to work tomorrow."
I have to go to work tomorrow,
Haha, it’s such a long time ago, so strange yet so familiar sentence.
Kevin got up from the doghouse and turned off the radio first and then the lights.
Pu'er kicked up his legs in bed, stopped making noises, and became quiet.
Karen pressed the quilt to her neck,
road:
"Good night."
"Woof~"
"Meow~"
…
At six o'clock in the morning, Karen got up, washed up, put on the clothes she bought yesterday, and walked downstairs.
To Karen's surprise, Hilly had already appeared at home.
"Master, Hilly came over very early and made breakfast."
Breakfast is very simple, bread with butter, fried eggs, small sausages and hot milk.
Karen sat down, had breakfast, and said to Hilly, who still started to pick up the rag for a new round of meticulous cleaning:
"Whenever I have time, I will teach you how to cook."
"Okay, Master, thank you Master."
Karen still prefers to have noodles or preserved egg and lean meat porridge for breakfast. Speaking of porridge...
"Alfred, remember to take the time to buy a few jars to make pickles."
"Master, I will buy it back." Xili said.
"Okay, I'll take the expenses from Alfred."
"No need, the jar is not expensive."
"These are the rules. Unless you don't want to stay here, you have to abide by the rules." Alfred reminded.
"Yes, sir, I understand."
Walking downstairs, Alfred started the car and drove Karen to the nearby tram stop. After parking the car, Alfred bought the ticket and accompanied Karen on the tram.
Unless there is a traffic accident in front of you when taking a tram, you don’t have to worry about the risk of traffic jams. But the problem is... there are so many people on the tram, which is even more exaggerated than squeezing the subway to work in later metropolitan areas.
If Alfred hadn't used his body to resist the crowd behind him, Karen would have felt like a sardine can in transit, swaying and squeezing all the way to its destination.
So, after getting off the tram, Karen said:
"I'll just drive to work from now on. I'll get up an hour earlier and miss the morning rush hour."
"Okay, Master, I think this is a wise choice."
