Chapter 248 Come to me for a snack of chicken in the evening

"Jenny, it's me."

Arya took a few steps forward and walked out of the sunlight, revealing her familiar delicate face and a pair of pointed elf ears.

Rongzhen embraced him in surprise. "I didn't expect you to come. Welcome! It's my turn to entertain you this time."

Alia bent down with her tall figure and hugged her, just like holding a child, holding her armpits with both hands and turning her around, then put her down with a smile as she screamed.

Rongzhen gasped with joy and hurriedly told Daisy to ask Mary to bring up some fruits and flowers. By the way, she asked Alia, "Would you like some barbecue? We have freshly slaughtered tender lamb on our farm."

"Don't bother, Jenny." Alia stopped her from trying to be hospitable and said that she had a mission to accomplish and just wanted to come and visit her when she passed by.

Because Alia always remembered what Jenny had told her about her own situation, and was worried that Jenny would not be able to handle it and would be bullied, she deliberately came to the farm to show her face and support her.

In any case, letting others see that she has an elf friend can always help her save some trouble.

Although Rongzhen couldn't understand Alia's good intentions for the time being, it was always a pleasant thing to have a friend remember to visit her.

Since Alia can't stay here for long, there's no need to entertain her. Just pack some specialties from Will Farm for her to take away.

I prepared some dried meat and preserved fruits, as well as some milk candy and milk tofu that I made two days ago. I put them in my bag and took them with me on the road as snacks. If she was really short of money, she could sell them to others for money.

After all, these things are high in calories and are hard currency in the Western fantasy world, and most races will not refuse them.

Mary packed them all in a bundle according to Daisy's instructions.

Rongzhen carried the bag and sent Alia, who was about to leave and was in a hurry, to the gate.

Alia noticed a thorn bush growing for several hundred meters around the deadwood fence on one side of the gate. She asked in surprise, "Did you dig it up in the forest? The places where it grows are often dangerous for humans."

"No, Allen found it from the edge of the area." Rong Zhen explained.

Hearing his own name, Alan hid his curled body deep in the thorn branches, put on his hood, and held his breath.

Alia just glanced at him, attracted by the green of the thorn bushes, and did not notice his presence for the time being.

Alia: "Alan?"

Rong Zhen: "He's a new employee and also a new friend of mine. I don't know where he's gone now. Next time you come over, I'll introduce you to each other."

After hearing their conversation, Allen said: “……!” He refused.

After a few small talk, it's time to leave.

Bambi, who was standing outside the farm gate, was already urging them on.

Ailia had no choice but to stop talking and said goodbye to Rong Zhen reluctantly: "I won't say anything else. I just came to see you. Knowing that you are doing well, I feel relieved. This time I went to the dwarf tribe to deliver a letter. I will be back soon. Then I will come to visit you again."

Rongzhen finally understood the purpose of her visit and suddenly felt that the burden in her hands was too light.

"Then you have to stay longer next time. I said I would treat you well."

Alia high-fived her and said okay with a smile.

Rongzhen stuffed the bag into her hands and urged her to get on the moose without giving her any chance to refuse. He watched her ride away swiftly on the moose with his own eyes.

Daisy stood behind her, craning her neck to watch for a long time, until she could no longer see the shadows of the elf and the moose. Then she muttered with lingering satisfaction, "Miss Jenny actually made friends with an elf." There was no lack of pride in her tone, and she looked like she was very proud of herself.

Rong Zhen turned around and flicked her head. "What are you mumbling about, you little brat? Since I'm happy today, everyone on our farm will have a chicken dinner today."

Daisy cheered and ran to tell Mary and the others.

After a while, the workers cheered and sped up the work at hand, so that they could finish today's work as soon as possible and eat the roast chicken as soon as possible.

Mary also followed their lead and quickened her pace, otherwise her roast chicken dinner might not be ready by the time those enthusiastic guys finished their work.

Rongzhen also knew that a lot of work had been temporarily added to her workload, so she planned to ask Daisy and Allen to help her. However, she couldn't find Allen on the farm. She didn't know where this guy had gone.

Looking at the planting tools he left behind by the thorn wall, Rong Zhen called out his name: "Alan—Alan—?"

Could it be that this guy knew that she wanted to confront him and was deliberately avoiding her?

Or was it taken away by a wolf?

Thinking of the second possibility, Rong Zhen's expression froze. He was about to call the hired workers to go out and look for someone, but a half head popped out from the thorn wall with a rustling sound.

The messy white hair on his head and the mask still tightly worn on his face, who else could it be but Alan, the man she was looking for.

"Oh, so you were hiding here. It's so hard for Miss Jenny and I to find you!" Daisy rushed over angrily and pulled the man out.

Alan did not resist. He followed Daisy's force and walked out of the thorns. He looked at Rongzhen with a flickering look in his eyes, and called out Jenny as if he was guilty of a crime.

Rong Zhen said angrily, "What are you doing hiding here?"

Alan quickly shook his head: "No, no, I, I just accidentally fell asleep." After that, he lowered his head, his eyelashes trembling, like a puppy who was afraid of being scolded for doing something wrong.

Rong Zhen felt too embarrassed to blame him anymore, so she changed her tone and said, "I'm not trying to teach you a lesson, but there are thorns on the bushes. What if you get hurt if you sleep in them?"

It turned out that she was concerned about him. Alan, realizing this, suddenly raised his head and replied with a smile: "No, I'm thick-skinned."

Rong Zhen looked at his fair and delicate skin and did not believe what he said. She told him to go to his small house to rest when he was tired from work in the future. There was no rush to plant the thorn wall, so there was no need to work so hard.

Now, let's all go to the kitchen with her to help Mary. We can talk about other things after dinner.

Rongzhen looked at Allen meaningfully and walked ahead.

Daisy followed behind, skipping and saying to Alan, who was also following closely, "A fairy friend of Miss Jenny just came. It's a pity that you were not here, so you didn't get to see her."

The little girl always believed that it was a lucky thing for humans to see elves. Seeing them was lucky, and seeing them would also bring luck.

After all, how long is a human life, and elves can live for thousands of years.

Compared to humans, elves can be considered demigods.

Alan smiled and said nothing.

In fact, he saw it, and it was because of that that he quickly hid himself. Otherwise, if the female elf recognized him and insisted on taking him back to the forest, how could he stay with Jenny?

When they arrived at Mary's place, she was already busy as a whirlwind. The arrival of the three men just solved her urgent problem.

Because of her status, Rongzhen was assigned the easiest job, which was to help screen and crush some vanilla leaves as ingredients for roast chicken.

Because Allen was very strong, Mary assigned him to work next to the oven, where he would turn the fork and pull the bellows.

Daisy is too small, so all she needs to do is pluck the permed chicken feathers.

After the meat is stripped, it is handed over to Mary, who will gut it, clean the internal organs, stuff it with spices, and smear it with salt before roasting it in the hanging oven.

The people had a clear division of labor, and in a short while they had prepared all the roast chickens needed and put them on the shelves, saving Mary a lot of work.

When the meal was served, the hungry servants who had already smelled the delicious food came in droves. When they saw Miss Jenny there, they immediately put away their greedy looks and lined up obediently.

Rongzhen asked Mary to cut the roasted chicken into two halves and give half to each of the employees, along with some wild vegetable soup to relieve the greasiness. Two large buckets of steamed potatoes were placed on the side as the staple food for everyone to eat.

Such meals are definitely considered excellent in the town and its surrounding areas, and this is also the reason why the employees are so loyal and cooperative to the farm and its new owner.

Because Rongzhen not only gets a sufficient salary, but also has enough food, so she can not only eat enough, but also eat well.

Who wouldn’t love it?

At least when Alan received the extra fruit puree she prepared for him, his heart was filled with warmth and he loved it so much.

Just because Rongzhen saw that he had no taste for greasy food and thought the wild vegetable soup was too bitter and hot, she did not despise him for being picky and difficult to feed. Instead, she silently brought him a plate of refreshing and sweet fruit puree and let him fill his stomach with rye bread.

Alan put the food in his mouth and felt sweet to his heart. He looked at Rongzhen secretly and met her smiling eyes. The fire in his heart burned even more fiercely, making his face red.

Fortunately, he was wearing a mask, so no one saw his face blushing like a thorn flower. However, when he lowered his head shyly, the pink color on his neck betrayed him.

Rongzhen deliberately tapped on it when passing by, and as she wished, she saw that piece of skin tremble slightly and become even redder.

"Come to me at night." She said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

Alan shrank his neck and nodded: "Okay..." His voice was trembling.

Even though he was so ashamed that he wanted to shrink back into the bushes, even though he knew he shouldn't agree, even though... even though... there were so many reasons, it still couldn't compare to the instinctive desire in his heart, the desire to be noticed by her, the desire to be touched by her, the desire to be loved by her, the desire for everything about her.

He longed to merge with her, even if only for a moment, so that when he recalled it later, all would be beautiful.

It's so humble.

Alan was lost in thought, feeling happy, excited and sad.

Daisy ran over with her own portion of food and asked him, "Alan, what did Miss Jenny say to you?" He was stunned and didn't even eat the food on the plate.

This is the fruit puree made by Miss Jenny herself. If Ellen doesn’t want to eat it, can you let her try it?

Alan immediately came back to his senses and noticed her covetous eyes on the fruit puree. He quickly put his arms around her and shook his head: "Jenny didn't say anything, just eat your own." Don't think about him, he is a little guy, but he has a big appetite.

His date with Jenny cannot be known to others, as that would affect Jenny's reputation, which is what some humans care about most.

Also, the food Jenny made for him could only go into his mouth, there was no room for others.

The time after dinner was very long. Alan asked Mary for an extra bucket of water in the name of washing, returned to his cabin, tidied himself up, put on a clean robe, and quietly came to the window sill of Rongzhen's building in the moonlight.

After two familiar knocks, the window upstairs opened as desired, revealing the smiling face of the beloved.

Rongzhen had just finished washing up and was drying her hair. When she heard the noise downstairs, she opened the window for him. She leaned on the windowsill, combing her hair and looking at him with a smile.

"Alan, do you have the courage to come up?"

Only give me one chance.
