A beam of colorful light pierced the sky and fell on the manor on the outskirts of the city.

Maybe it's because the weather is still hot, people are hiding in the house, and few are willing to stroll outside, or maybe it's because the sun is so strong that it covers the flashing beam of light, making it look unattractive. apparently...

Not many people noticed this beam of light.

Even the two maids wearing straw hats who were weeding in the courtyard did not notice the flash of the beam of light. It wasn't until Kang Na's crisp and lively yelling came from the open space not far behind that they subconsciously turned their heads and looked in the direction of the sound with surprise on their faces.

"We are fat and spicy~~!"

Putting away the pose, she found the figures of the two maids. Connor happily raised her little hand and greeted cheerfully: "Sister Lily, sister Ashira, how are you~."

"Kangna~." Turning off the humming lawnmower in her hand, two maids trotted over with their skirts lifted.

After responding to Kang Na's greeting, the two girls bowed to Shi Xiaolei in a very dignified manner, and also greeted the other people who returned with them: "Master, ladies, welcome home."

"Um."

It was such a hot day, and it was noon, and the two of them were busy working under the sun. Although they are wearing long sleeves and straw hats on their heads, there is no need to worry about getting sunburned, but look at their flushed faces and the sweat dripping down their cheeks and necks...Looking at the two maids in front of him, Shi Xiaolei A bit of pity rose involuntarily in my heart.

"It's such a hot day, why don't you hide in the house." Pointing to the sky, Shi Xiaolei sighed: "Weeding or something, don't worry about it for a while. Anyway, there are lights in the yard, wait for the sun It’s sunset, let’s get back to work when it’s cooler.”

"It's okay, we're not hot."

"Well, there's still a little bit left to finish."

Even though Shi Xiaolei had already spoken, the two maids still wanted to continue.

Why do you work so hard? On the one hand, it is to repay Shi Xiaolei for his care all the time. On the other hand, it was because the maids felt a little uneasy and felt a sense of crisis.

It's not because of anything else, the sense of crisis in the hearts of the maids all comes from the ship girls.

Speaking of it, if we only talk about the ability to serve people, except for a few ship girls, the vast majority of ship girls are actually no match for the maids.

But it can't help that they are hardworking and willing to do it, and the number of them is much more than that of the maids.

In addition, the strength of the ship girls is very strong, and their endurance is far beyond that of the maids. Many things that the maids cannot do will become easy in the hands of the ship girls...

Well, the main reason is that each of the ship girls is too beautiful, and they will not be tanned by the sun at all, which leads to damage to the appearance score... At the beginning, it was purely from the standpoint of women, and the ship girls were aroused Envy, and then, as the ship girls showed more skills, the shadows in the hearts of the maids gradually expanded, and finally, they finally turned into the current state of anxiety.

Fortunately, this anxiety only existed in the days when Shi Xiaolei was not around.

Now Shi Xiaolei is back. Once again, I felt the same love and care from him as in the past, and for a while, the moods of Lily and Ashila were much more stable.

"Master, have you had lunch yet? Need to inform the kitchen to prepare something for you?"

"Then it couldn't be better." Before Shi Xiaolei could answer, Stark, who was beside him, took the lead first: "I want to eat Chinese food~, the kind that is a bit spicy and has a stronger taste."

Before returning, to be more specific, it was an hour and a half ago that everyone had their last brunch in Asgard.

The hosts are Odin and his wife, and it is also a farewell dinner... Although it is not a formal meal, it is just a brunch that is not serious, but the food presented on the table, whether it is exquisiteness or portion, is actually quite good. not bad.

"How long has it been? Are you hungry again?" Shi Xiaolei rubbed his stomach, turning his head to look at Stark in surprise.

"It's not that I'm hungry, it's just that I'm hungry." Stark replied, taking off the sunglasses that were on his face: "I've been to Asgard for so many days, and I haven't eaten Chinese food, have I? ? Tsk tsk, thank you for being a native of China.”

"You still have reason~."

"Anyway, I won't be polite to you." Stark smiled a little rascally, and found himself a comrade again: "Konna, are you hungry for Chinese food? Do you want to eat it?"

"Yeah, I want to eat meatballs and braised pork~." Connor gave the response Stark wanted without hesitation.

Even Kang Na said that, what else can Shi Xiaolei say.

"Okay, okay." He smiled helplessly, turned his head to look in the direction of the main building, Shi Xiaolei said to the two maids: "Lily, please inform the kitchen... By the way, who is on duty today?" ? Can you cook Chinese food?"

"Yes, Martina and Kate are in charge of the kitchen today."

"That's good~lightnovelpub.net~ Please inform them." Hearing these two names, Shi Xiaolei nodded: "There are not many tricks, four or five dishes are enough. The key is to choose how many dishes. It’s a heavy dish with a little more portion.”

"Okay. I'll contact Martina right now."

"Well, then you should be busy... Uh, no, I mean, find a shady place to take shelter first, and then continue to work when it is not so hot." Waving his hand, Shi Xiaolei urged: "The weather is too hot, Be careful of getting sunstroke."

"Thank you Master for your concern, we will pay attention."

After saying goodbye to the two maids who were working in the garden, the group returned to the cool room.

Although it wasn't the midsummer in Asgard before, it was too hot for a short while when I just came back, and the big guy hadn't had time to sweat, but after all, it was a long trip and after returning home , After all, there is still a sense of travel and dust, and subconsciously wants to take a bath to relax.

In addition, it will take some time for the maids to prepare the dishes, so they are not ready to eat right now...

"Dude, do you want to take a shower?" Shi Xiaolei looked away from the departing 2B and the others, and turned his head to look at the only friend who stayed by his side.

"...that's fine." After a few seconds of hesitation, Stark nodded: "Is there any clothes I can wear?"

"Put on mine. Bigger ones, anyway, it's hot, so it's okay to wear looser ones."

"Are you sure it's just 'a little bit' looser?"

"Or you can ask Jarvis to come and bring you some clothes." Shrugging, Shi Xiaolei casually suggested: "Anyway, it's not far away, and taking a bath is enough for him Here's what you asked for."

"good idea."
