Chapter 29 29 Lineup Begins

Chapter 29 29. The confrontation begins

Andrew was not in a good mood in the morning.

After all, his father was not willing to listen to his ideas.

His father had guessed his plan early, calculated the date of his return, and arranged a banquet a few days in advance.

At that time, all the unmarried noble children in the royal city would come, and even several lords who were enfeoffed outside would let their direct descendants living in the royal city be active for a rare time.

Since the Turner family provided the venue, Andrew, as the eldest son of the family, could not escape anyway.

Being able to provide a place for so many young people in the kingdom to socialize and talk, the Turner family, as a viscount, can be said to be extremely glorious.

Old Andrew spent a lot of money, and the servants and slaves in the family began to decorate the manor before Andrew came back, and the reception room was converted into a ballroom and was decorated with gold and splendor.

The opportunity to become the center of the topic in the aristocratic circle is not something that every family can have, but whenever such an opportunity comes, you must try your best to seize it.

But Andrew was not interested. He had no interest in dancing on the dance floor and appreciating the beauty that made people's blood boil under the warm yellow light cast by the chandelier.

He was sure that he was a functional man.

It took ten days and half a month for the East Territory to return to the camp. Even if he saw the ordinary-looking and even overly "heroic" female knights in the logistics department, he would react.

But when he returned to the royal city, he was indifferent to the most beautiful girls.

He wanted to learn magic quietly, and wanted to pick up magic tools in his study and transform the dolls.

Instead of playing a game of you testing me and I testing you with a group of masked canaries, everyone regarded testing as a fun little game.

After collecting all the silver coins he could control, Andrew left home again without explaining to his family.

It was noon when he arrived at the mansion rented by Lu Yu. Andrew smelled a tempting meat aroma before he entered the door.

Andrew, who had only eaten a few bites of bread in the morning, couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

After knocking on the door for a long time, the door was finally opened.

It was not Lu Yu who opened the door. A girl with silver hair and a ponytail appeared in front of Andrew wearing a white apron.

The girl's skin color was very strange. This light gray with a little brown and red should be a sub-human?

The girl did not inform, but planned to lead Andrew into the house openly, which made Andrew quite dissatisfied.

"As a servant, how can you make decisions on your own? Please inform first."

The girl smiled and said, "My master knew you were coming a long time ago, so he told me and let me go directly."

Andrew's face was slightly relieved, and he followed the other party into the house.

But the more he walked, the more he felt something was wrong. This direction... is the kitchen?

When he entered the kitchen, Andrew opened his mouth slightly in surprise.

I saw Lu Yu smashing garlic with a kitchen knife and chopping it into garlic paste.

I don't know what is stewing in the pot, but it is emitting an increasingly tempting aroma.

Andrew rarely goes into the kitchen, let alone cook.

Seeing a nobleman busy among the stove and kitchen utensils at this moment, a sense of unreality arises spontaneously.

"Nobles can also pretend."

The master's words echoed in his mind again.

Andrew put the cloth bag in his hand on the table, and the sound of metal collision made Sigrid's eyes light up.

"Sir Lu Yu, here are seventy silver coins, which are all the property I currently have."

"If you need more, I can ask the servants to bring the remaining copper coins when I go home."

Lu Yu, who was cooking, was taking the last step, pouring oil on the garlic beef.

The boiling hot oil was poured on the garlic, and the garlic and meat aromas were stimulated to the greatest extent.

Sigrid wiped her saliva with the back of her hand

Andrew bit his teeth reservedly, unwilling to have any flaws in his demeanor.

Lu Yu sat down with a full plate of garlic beef, and saw Andrew still staring at him, and suddenly realized.

"Sigrid, give Viscount Andrew the dishes."

After giving the order, he asked, "Viscount, have you eaten yet? If not, let's have some together?"

Andrew took a step forward, and he immediately remembered the purpose of coming here today, and quickly stopped.

"Please check first to see if the amount is satisfactory."

"Boring." Lu Yu sighed, and asked Sigrid, who brought Andrew the dishes and chopsticks, to count the silver coins on the spot.

Seventy pieces, not one less, all brand new Yas Kingdom standard silver coins, with a high market circulation rate and easy to exchange.

Andrew looked at Lu Yu nervously, he was worried that these would not satisfy Lu Yu's appetite.

At this stage, he did not want to ask his family for money, but if he opened this door, he would not be able to be tough with his father.

Seeing Lu Yu signal Sigrid to put it away, and took out his sword and doll, Andrew's hanging heart was relieved.

Andrew wanted to leave directly after getting the things, but at this time, the words of his master, Drake, began to echo in his mind again.

Seeing Lu Yu eating at the same table with his servants, this doubt was maximized.

Here, servants are not qualified to eat with their masters.

The overly abnormal behavior made Andrew more and more convinced that what his master said was true.

"He will take out a map and trick you into buying it."

But now that he has made the move to leave, why didn't Lu Yu react?

Strange.

He deliberately squatted down, as if remembering something, and checked the doll.

It smells so good...

How could it smell so good?

As Lu Yu took out a new pot of food from the stew pot, the room was once again flooded with fragrance.

When Lu Yu and Sigrid ate with two strange wooden sticks, they always hit the edge of the bowl.

Just by listening to the "da da" sound, Andrew could imagine the scene of rice entering his mouth.

The chewing sound became much louder for no reason, and Andrew's saliva was secreted crazily just by listening to the sound.

The two of them seemed to be completely unaware of his existence and discussed food with each other.

"Master, this tomato beef brisket should be enough for two meals today, right?"

"I made more this time. I'll buy some good noodles and flour tomorrow, and I'll serve it to you later."

"Oh, I forgot to put some chili in the garlic beef. Let's just eat it today. It's fragrant enough anyway."

Andrew, who had been squatting on the ground for half a day, had to get up. He deliberately took two steps hard. After realizing that neither Lu Yu nor Sigrid wanted to keep him, he had to put down his things and return to the kitchen.

Seeing Andrew come back, Lu Yu was stunned for a while.

"The Viscount really wants to eat something."

Andrew was not the kind of person who liked to beat around the bush, so he simply said it straight to the point.

"Sir Lu Yu, are you really a noble?"

"Which country did you get the title from?"

"Can you tell me the rank?"

"Do you have any territory?"

"What special items are there in the land where you were born?"

"How many things have you seen since you traveled so far?"

"Do you have any travel notes?"

"How many countries and regions have you passed through?"

"Is the monster atlas written?"

"Where is the map?"

"Since you are a magician, what level are you?"

"If you have a specialized path, which branch is it? Do you mind showing me one or two?"

After saying it in one breath, Andrew breathed a sigh of relief.

Perhaps he was born not to play intrigue, which is why he is so tired of those gorgeously dressed canaries.

Their melodious and pleasant singing voices are all false, which is completely different from him who hopes to be sincere to others.

The question has been raised, and now it is waiting for Lu Yu to answer.

A liar cannot make up answers to so many questions in a short time.

Even if he is well prepared, these fabricated answers will leave loopholes that can be questioned.

I, Andrew Turner, will unveil the mask of a liar for the people of Wangcheng!

Seeing Andrew, who was full of confidence and righteous, staring at him with sharp eyes, Lu Yu's first reaction was not that this kid had become smart overnight.

But...

"Someone behind the scenes gave me advice and sent him to confront me."

Andrew did leak the news of his existence.

However, Lu Yu was not too panicked. He did not think that the identity he made up would be smooth and no one would question it from the beginning.

There are many people in this world who have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice. The vision and experience given to them by age are incomparable to Lu Yu, who has just come to this world and is relatively young.

It is irresponsible to think that everyone is mentally retarded and think that an identity plus a bunch of labels can make you live a stable life.

He is never afraid of being questioned. On the contrary... he welcomes people to question him.

As long as someone questions, and the person questioning is a well-known person, after passing his level, it is equivalent to getting a safe pass, and no one will doubt his identity in the future.

Now, Lu Yu only hopes that the person who taught Andrew to question is of noble status.

Even if it is not his father, it should be a well-known person.

Sigrid put down her bowl and chopsticks at Lu Yu's eyes and glared at Andrew.

"Are you questioning the identity of my master?"

Andrew laughed.

"Ms. Sigrid, as a servant, how dare you bump into a person with a title without your master's permission?"

"Don't tell me that in your country, servants can bypass their masters?"

"Sir Lu Yu, do you know that in the Kingdom of Yas, if a servant bumps into a noble, the master will personally punish him?"

Sigrid froze. She was acting according to the script that Lu Yu had arranged for her before.

Is there something wrong with the master's script?

Or should he let himself be punished to trigger the next stage of the conversation?

Lu Yu slowly picked up a piece of thinly sliced ​​beef and put it in his bowl.

He raised his head and looked at Andrew calmly.

"In my country, it is customary not to talk about so many irrelevant things during meals."

"So I try not to get angry during meals. I let my servants say what I should be angry about and what I should say."

"If you want me to answer, wait until I finish eating."

"If you think I am stalling, you can turn the table over."

"If you think I am escaping, you can argue with Sigrid first."

"Of course, if you are hungry, you can sit down and eat... By the way, although I mentioned the option of turning the table over, but..."

"In my country, there is a saying that food is the first necessity of the people, so turning the table over while others are eating is an act of tearing the relationship apart."
