Dear Commander-in-Chief - Chapter 1107
Chapter 1107: Silver Tableware Test
Dr. Brown laughed and tried to smooth things over. “Children’s words carry no harm! I’m very happy that you could come over for a gathering before I leave your country! Come in and play!”
As he spoke, he warmly invited them into the house.
Gu Qiqi held the little packrat’s hand and walked into the villa.
The scarlet copper door slammed shut behind them.
Gu Qiqi was very relaxed.
Actually, Gong Jue had already asked his subordinates to investigate this villa last night.
There were three floors in total made of brick and wood. There were ten rooms, two halls, and a screening room.
When his subordinates had sneaked in yesterday, they had discovered that Professor Brown was doing it himself. He was instructing the servants to decorate one of the halls by setting up an expensive European-style long dining table, covering it with a gorgeous golden velvet tablecloth, and bringing over golden silk chairs. It was a harmonious scene.
Therefore, with every step Gu Qiqi took, she was tracing the topographic map that Gong Jue had drawn in her heart. Well, it was not bad. The scene was indeed like this.
After Dr. Brown showed them around the entire house, the little packrat yawned. “Didn’t they say that there were toys that children liked? I haven’t seen them yet…”
Susanna smiled and took his hand. “Come on, I’ll show you.”
The little packrat unceremoniously broke free and hugged Gu Qiqi with both hands. “Auntie, I only have one big sister!”
Speaking of which, Susanna was only a little younger than Gu Qiqi, but the little packrat actually called her Auntie and Gu Qiqi Sister.
This really made Susanna laugh.
It was Professor Brown who came over to smooth things over. “Doctor Gu, why don’t we have dinner first? After that, I’ll personally bring you to see my collection. Children will definitely like it very much. It’s very novel and interesting. I guarantee…!”
Gu Qiqi nodded. “As you wish.”
The little boy also rubbed his stomach. “Yes, I’m hungry!”
In the dining room.
There were beautiful silver cutlery and delicious local Country M delicacies.
Just looking at it was tempting.
The people of Country M ate meals separately. Everyone’s food was individually distributed by the servants in front of them, unlike the people of the Empire where all the dishes were placed together, and everyone ate one by one.
Professor Brown was the first to raise his glass and drink. “Welcome!”
As he spoke, he smiled and nodded at the cutlery. “That’s the good thing about silver cutlery. If there’s anything wrong with the food, it can immediately reflect it.”
Silver was the best material for testing poison.
Gu Qiqi also smiled. “Professor Brown is a world-class medicine master. How can there be a problem with the food at home?”
As she spoke, she helped the little boy tie his napkin. Then, she raised her glass and drained it. “Thank you for your hospitality.”
“Thank you for your trust!” Professor Brown was very happy. He continued, “Actually, I thought that you wouldn’t come again after rejecting me twice. Moreover, the little packrat should be looked after strictly at home, right? I’m also very surprised that his father allowed him to come. Is his father Gong Jue? Gong Jue is so busy. He shouldn’t have time to accompany him out.”
Gu Qiqi raised her eyebrows and didn’t answer directly. “He’s indeed the treasure of the family. But it doesn’t matter. I’m his big sister. It’s the same if I bring him along.”
Seeing that Gu Qiqi and the little boy were eating happily, Professor Brown quickly finished the goose liver salad on the table and hurriedly gestured for the servants to continue serving the dishes.
He poked Susanna, who was beside him. “Child, don’t just look at Doctor Gu. Drink a toast to her!”
