Chapter 25 The Charm of the Bard (Page 2/2)
After a few minutes, before they had finished processing the wild dogs, Mrs. Wendy, holding a torch, trotted over in a hurry.
When she saw that Frank was processing dog meat with a strange young woman and nothing dangerous happened, she immediately patted her round chest as if relieved.
Then she smiled, walked to Frank's side, and said:
"Great, Mr. Frank, you are not in any danger."
"I will also process the dog meat."
………………
Nine wild dogs weighed hundreds of kilograms of meat. In addition to skinning, removing the internal organs, and cleaning, the three of them were busy from late at night to the early morning before they finished processing.
Meat in the Middle Ages was very expensive and difficult to preserve. Except for hunters who were good at hunting, most people might not be able to eat meat once a month.
When the two little girls, Ciri and Vanessa, woke up from their sleep, they were immediately attracted by the rich smell of meat outside the cave before they had time to wash their faces and brush their teeth.
On the bright bonfire, there was not only a big pot, which continuously emitted the rich aroma of broth, but also a huge dog leg weighing several kilograms, which was roasted with fat and smelled delicious.
These rich aromas made the two girls very greedy.
The children, who are still in the growth spurt, would not consider why there is so much meat in front of them. They walked to Mrs. Wendy, who was in charge of cooking, with smiles on their faces. They first greeted her politely, then could not help but sniff the aroma and said with a grin:
"It smells good! Mrs. Wendy (Mom!)"
"Where is Teacher Frank? Should we do morning exercises or have breakfast first?"
However, before Wendy could answer the two children's questions, Priscilla, who was also sitting on a stone waiting for dinner, played the lute in her hand, played a beautiful melody, and then said in a cheerful tone:
"Mrs. Wendy, are these the Ellie and little Vanessa you mentioned?"
"What two lovely little girls."
"Hello, I'm Priscilla, you can also call me Karenita."
"I'm a bard from Coville, nice to meet you."
Priscilla's voice is very beautiful, and combined with the melody of the lute, it always attracts people's attention unconsciously.
The two little girls were immediately attracted by the voice of the bard and cast curious glances.
At this time, Frank also came over from the bushes beside him, holding some herbs and wild vegetables he had collected.
After handing them to Wendy, the demon hunter reached out and touched the hair of the two girls, smiling gently and said:
"No need to train this morning, wait until we finish breakfast and set off early."
"Try to get to the White Orchard before dark."
"Then everyone can take a hot bath tonight and have a good sleep in bed."
It is too hard to always sleep in the wilderness. Many adults can't bear this kind of hardship, let alone young girls.
Hearing this news, Ciri and little Vanessa couldn't help cheering, hugged Frank's thighs from both sides, rubbed their heads affectionately, expressed their joy, and hummed happy songs.
Seeing this warm scene, Mrs. Wendy, who was making breakfast, couldn't help but smile, and Priscilla also played a country ballad, and the atmosphere became cheerful for a while.
