brothers fight back

On the night of William's birthday, Louis had a deep understanding of what heaven and hell are—it was William's brother's birthday, but as the "protagonist", he surrounded him with Jiuji the whole time, forcing him to become the "protagonist" of the banquet.

Recalling the scene of being flanked and praised by these two people, Louis wished he could turn into a mole and leave immediately.

... so embarrassing!

Why do humans invent so many words to compliment others?

Louis hugged the quilt, buried his head in the quilt, and the exposed ears were bathed in the moonlight penetrating into the room, glowing a beautiful blush.

"Kusi."

After the banquet, Albert called Jiuji to the study alone. Looking at Kirigiri Kuji, who seemed to be younger than William and Louis, Albert couldn't help asking in a gentle voice: "Today, is that man talking to you?" What did you talk about?"

Hisashi blinked, and summarized all the conversations with Kenneth to Albert without omission, and finally asked: "Are all the teachers who work in the "Clock Tower" like this? "

"Sorry, I don't know about this matter." Albert had never formally contacted anyone from the clock tower, and Kenneth's visit was the first time.

"I don't know "Clock Tower", but I know some nobles and their common problems. Seeing Hisuji was silent, Albert led him to divert his attention.

"Common disease"? Hisashi raised his head and looked at Albert seriously, "If it is a nobleman, will my brother also have it?" "

"Maybe." Albert smiled softly.

Hisashi nodded, showing a thoughtful expression.

"Kusi. In this world, besides us 'ordinary people', there are many occult researchers who don't want to disclose their whereabouts."

"Is today's visitor a occult researcher?"

Albert nodded, ""Clock Tower" has too many categories, I can only roughly guess that he is a magician. "

""magician". Hisui tilted his head, "Then the students he teaches are ordinary people?" "

"It should be someone who has the blood to become a magician." Even if Kenneth came into contact with the mysterious field, Albert did not think that Kenneth had surpassed the general definition of human beings.

"Why did brother Albert tell me this?" Jiuji was not curious about Kenneth, he was curious about Albert's "motivation" for calling himself to talk tonight.

"Kenneth proposed to me that he be the recommender, and I hope you can study in the "Clock Tower" in the future.I discussed this matter with William first, and both William and I decided to give you the right to choose. "Albert went around the desk to the rear bookcase and took out a letter.

"Kusi." Albert continued the topic with his back turned to him, "Are you interested in magic?"

"Not interested." Hisashi gave the answer in his heart without hesitation.

"I see." Albert stuffed the recommendation letter back into the bookcase, "Kusi, can I trouble you to call William here?"

Shizuo nodded and turned to leave.

And as soon as he opened the door, he saw William standing outside the door.

"Brother William?" Jiuji was puzzled when he saw William, and then remembered Albert's explanation just now, with a slightly happy expression on his face: "Brother Albert just asked me to find you, and you came here! "

"I know. It's late, Kuji, go wash up first and get some rest earlier." William said to Jiuji with a smile.

"Yes." Hisashi didn't doubt that he was there, and after answering, William waved to Albert in the study, said good night in advance, and left.

"You already know the answer, William." Albert looked at the person who walked into the study.

"Yeah." William answered and added: "Kusi hasn't figured it out yet. If Patriarch El-Mello asks about this matter again, you can answer for him."

Albert was taken aback.

"Don't worry about Jiuji, he will go." William smiled harmlessly.

After William's birthday party, Jiuji found that his brothers suddenly became busy, and even Louis often disappeared.

"Master Jiusi, do you want to eat peppers today?" The servant lady took him outside to buy ingredients at the request of Jiusi and after obtaining William's permission.

Jiuji shook his head, and said sullenly, "I don't want to eat bell peppers."

"There are fresh apples that have just been delivered over there. Do you want to eat apples, Master Jiuji?" The servant lady understood Jiuji's depression, and hurriedly changed his attention with a different ingredient.

Hearing this, Jiu Si followed the gaze of the servant girl, a flash of light flashed in his eyes for a moment, but soon he was discouraged again.

"We can buy apples and go back to make apple pie!" Looking at Jiuji's real reaction written on his face, the maid smiled helplessly, "Didn't Master Jiuji often make trouble with Master Louis to make apple pies before?"

"Watching Master Louis make apple pie so many times, the smart Master Kuji should have already learned it?" The maid found that she couldn't divert Jiuji's attention, let alone make him happy, so she had to do her best to make Jiuji do something else. thing.

"Master Jiusi will grow up to be independent sooner or later. Don't the elder brothers provide Master Jiusi with good opportunities for self-training?" The servant lady knows that Jiusi depends on his elder brother. In this society, even the best brother can't do it. Stick together all the time.

Master Jiuji will grow up sooner or later, if he is unable to deal with all kinds of things on his own by then, Master Jiuji will definitely become the laughing stock of others.

In order to avoid such a tragedy from happening, the maid is going to teach Kuji what he knows first today——

The first is to choose ingredients, bargain reasonably, and remember the names and usages of various ingredients and spices!

"Since Master Kuji doesn't object, let's start!"

"First, we're going to that street to buy spices!"

Kyukiri Kyuji, who was caught up in personal emotions and didn't hear what the maid said to him just now: "...?"

But soon, Jiuji, who accompanied the servant girl to Spice Street, saw her behavior clearly, and naturally solved the doubts in his heart.

The servant lady decided to teach Jiuji the basic cooking knowledge, and she would teach it conscientiously, and Jiuji also memorized all the knowledge she taught in her mind in a daze.

"As for such a common thing, those knowledgeable people will not record it in books. Even if Master Kuji has read many books, it is impossible to know all of them." The maid smiled and picked up the spices and ingredients she had bought.

"In the future, there will be." Jiuji looked at the servant girl's back, and seriously responded to her words.

"Hahaha, should you record these basic ingredients in a book?" The maid first laughed, and then said: "That must be very interesting."

——Books are luxuries consumed by nobles.It must be very interesting if the nobles can get familiar with these common foods in the future!

I don't know what kind of genius the person who wrote such a book is.

Just fantasizing about the unpredictable future, the servant lady maintained a happy mood on the way back.

"Both of them look very happy." Louis made black tea and served it to William. Through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, he looked at Kuji and the maid who came back slowly one after the other. Louis shared the information he had obtained with William. .

The three brothers all went out in a carriage to do errands shortly after Jiusi and the maid went out. They estimated the time when Jiusi would go out, and the three of them rushed back before he returned home.

The three brothers knew very well about Jiuji's going out today, but none of them said anything, and let Jiuji appear in front of them as if keeping a little secret.

Looking at Jiuji, Louis smiled, trying his best not to laugh.Looking at Albert and William again, both of them hid their expressions very well. Louis decided to add a class to himself every morning-strengthening the control training of his facial expressions.

"Taste... how is it?"

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Kuji secretly ran to the kitchen, and not long after, he came to Albert's study with sliced ​​apple pie and juice.

He put the afternoon tea for three in front of them, and looked at them expectantly.

As soon as William took the apple pie into his mouth, he looked up at Louis, who shook his head slightly at him, indicating that he didn't make it himself.

Albert reservedly put down the plate in his hand, continued to pick up the book at the side, deliberately not answering Jiuji.

So Kuji looked forward to looking at William and Louis.

At this moment, there was a bit of grievance in Jiuji's eyes.

"It's a little sweet." Louis ate the familiar apple pie, and seeing Jiuji began to show a sad expression, he immediately answered, "I like food with a lighter taste."

"Well. I can do both. The taste is similar to what Louis usually makes, but it's a bit sweet." William continued pretending to be puzzled: "Why don't I remember that the mansion hired a pastry chef? Brother Albert?"

"Huh?" Albert looked up from the book, "Ah... Didn't Louis do it?"

Hearing this, Jiuji immediately looked at Albert aggrieved, hoping that this shrewd brother in the past could find him soon.

The more Jiuji looked forward to it, the more Albert wanted to tease him, "Maybe when did the housekeeper hire a pastry chef? After all, Louis has been busy recently and has no time to make desserts for Jiuji."

Hisashi: QAQ...

The three brothers didn't show any emotion on their faces, but they were all quietly observing Jiuji.Seeing that the child was not being teased, William smiled and looked at the "instigator".

"Cough..." Albert coughed lightly, and continued the topic stiffly, "I remember that the apple pie made by Louis was improved by himself?"

"Hmm." Louis nodded, following Albert's topic and said, "No one in the kitchen asked me for the recipe."

"Hmm..." William put his hand on his chin, and put on a look of serious thinking, "Since no one in the kitchen asks Louis for an apple pie recipe, the only one who can make food with the same taste is to look at Louis from time to time. The one who makes the food."

"But doesn't Louis dislike being watched by others when making food?" Albert smoothly picked up William's topic.

"Yeah." Louis said calmly, "On weekdays, only Jiuji sits by and watches me do this."

Mentioning the key person, both Albert and William looked at Kyuki Kijiri in surprise, and were about to follow the "discovery" to say that the person who made the apple pie was Kyuji, but the latter's eyes had already been stained with a strange color. He looked at them blankly.

——Oops, the child is not easy to coax!
