Chapter 172 The Damn Rich Man
Gordon met Ancil’s family at the dinner table.
It was only now that he found out that in addition to his surviving parents, Anhil also had a sister who was almost ten years older than him.
Different from the picture in Feng Ying's wild imagination, Anxil's family members were not arrogant, nor did they show any rejection or dissatisfaction with their arrival. Instead, they seemed quite enthusiastic.
Especially Anhil's mother, a beautiful lady who is very well-maintained.
When she saw her younger son, who had left home as a teenager and was now so mature that she dared not recognize him, came back, she almost went crazy with joy.
No longer caring about modesty and propriety, she ordered the maids to prepare the dinner with a sharp voice. She made everyone in Sterling Mansion jump up and down.
Anhil's father and sister also hurried back after receiving the message from the attendant.
Gordon originally thought that Ancil's father would be an elegant, handsome, mature gentleman with meticulous words and deeds, but he did not expect that he would be a chubby uncle.
The fat face is smiling, full of friendly smiles, the slightly funny mustache is up and down, and the words are humorous, making people feel like a kind uncle next door. Feng Ying chats with him Very happy.
Gordon didn't dare to underestimate this guy at all.
As the head of a wealthy local family in East Doruma, and the behind-the-scenes controller and investor of many chambers of commerce, Mr. Sterling cannot be a simple person.
Sure enough, in a few words, the silly Feng Ying revealed a series of important information about Yanhuo Village's price level, special products, power structure, speakers, etc.
It wasn't until Mrs. Sterling gave him a dissatisfied look that she gave up with a smile.
However, among Ancil's family members, the one who impressed Gordon the most was Ancil's sister, the next head of the Sterling family, named Jessica Sterling. Miss.
When they first met, she was wearing a dark female formal dress and just followed Mr. Sterling, with a low sense of presence.
The same thing happened after she sat down. She had a formulaic light smile on her face, her eyes seemed unfocused, and she didn't speak much. She was almost exactly the same as Anxil when they first met.
However, as a hunter, Gordon, whose perception is far more sensitive than ordinary people, can feel that a vague afterglow has always shrouded them.
There is neither malice nor goodwill in the eyes, only calm inspection and observation.
It’s normal for you to look at me, and Feng Ying, who is still a half-grown girl, can understand it, so be cautious.
But it's a bit too much to not even spare the pork chops that are holding the fresh fish while gnawing at it, and Amber that is slurping with her head buried in the food bowl.
Gordon glanced at the lady speechlessly.
Noticing his gaze, the other party withdrew his peripheral vision from observing cats and dogs, looked back, and nodded in apology from a slightly invisible angle.
In the booth between Gordon and Jessica, you glance at me and I glare at you.
On the other side of the long dining table, Mrs. Sterling was looking at Ancil with worry.
"Anxi (this is the nickname), do you really don't want to change your clothes first? Your clothes and armor look so rigid, it will make you feel very uncomfortable."
Anxier put down the knife helplessly. , "Mother, hunters wear armor every day, and I am used to it. I'm used to it."
"You can feel free to do whatever you want now. I'll ask someone to bring you some light clothes. Of course, I'll also prepare them for your two friends."
Si. Mrs. Thelin complained, raised her finger, and prepared to call the attendant.
“No need to bother.”
Anhil waved away the attendant, raised his chin and nodded at Gordon, "It's hard to find this guy's size, and we will leave after dinner, so there is no need to prepare clothes."
"Eh? Not here? Are you staying at home?”
The disappointment on Mrs. Sterling’s face was visible to the naked eye, “There are obviously many rooms, and I don’t want to leave the guest room. Let the maids make arrangements. Now that you have returned to Dongdoruma, you can stay here."
"No"
Anhil refused decisively, "We are hunters. , the main activity location is either at the hunter gathering place or in the wild, it is too inconvenient to live here.”
"We can have a carriage pick you up. It's not like we don't have a driver at home." Mrs. Sterling proposed a plan that seemed very constructive.
Mr. Sterling added with a smile. "You have to prepare a more spacious car quickly, otherwise you are both armored and armed, and it may not be so comfortable to sit in."
"Even if you have a car, going back and forth on the road is too time-consuming. "Anhil continued to refuse with a dark face.
Jesica glanced at her younger brother, her face was calm, and her words were all matter-of-fact, "Or in the name of the Sterling Chamber of Commerce, set up an office near the Hunter Assembly Hall as your base."< br>
Gordon & Feng Ying: "."
Suddenly, I understood why Anxier didn't want to stay at home.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, Gordon and his entourage left the mansion amidst Mrs. Sterling's reluctant farewell.
To be honest, Gordon did not enjoy this dinner, or dinner.
It’s not that the Sterling family was not well prepared. On the contrary, Mrs. Sterling was too well prepared.
Take the slow-braised dragon loin as the main course. It is soft and delicious, melts in your mouth, and has no shortcomings except the small portion.
Dongdoruma is close to the sea, so there is naturally no shortage of seafood ingredients that appear on the Sterling family's dinner table.
However, these seafood are not local products, such as queen shrimp sashimi and secret barnacle abalone. It is said that they are all treasures from the distant New World.
It’s delicious, Gordon doesn’t know why. The description says it's delicious, but it's a pity it's only a small bite.
The dessert after the meal is also great. The ice cream made with emerald durian is rich and sweet, but does not have any peculiar smell that durian should have.
Gordon thought he could eat a whole bucket, but all he had in front of him was a small dollop in a passion fruit shell.
"I asked Anhil, the amount of food at your house is a little bit less."
Gordon patted his flat belly and complained half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Auntie and you That's all, my uncle, with his size, can he really eat enough?"
Feng Ying nodded wildly in agreement.
Anhil rolled his eyes when he heard this, "You just said it when you haven't eaten enough. What's the point of talking about my father? Do you really think they are you two?
Roasted Just herbivorous dragon legs, one person can fit in them
Today's amount is already enough, but the head chef added more for the sake of your size. ”
Gordon grinned and said nothing more.
The amount of exercise and food intake of hunters are not comparable to ordinary people, let alone big-bellied men like him and Feng Ying, even An Xi You probably haven’t eaten enough either.
“Okay, stop complaining, go back to my house and drop off your luggage, and I’ll take you to the night market to taste the local delicacies of Dongdoruma. "
"Okay~! ”
"Meow!"
Fengying Pig Chop raised her hands and cheered.
Gordon noticed something was wrong, "Why go back to your house? Didn't we just come out of your house? Are we going to the Hunter Assembly Hall to register for renting a house now?"
Anhil was surprised. He looked at him seriously and said, "Although that was just My home, but to be precise, Sterling House, I’m talking about the house I bought myself, my personal home, understand?
Also, what kind of house do you want to rent? Although my home is not that big. , but it’s enough for three people to squeeze in.
By the way, Feng Ying, which floor do you want to live on? I recommend the third floor, so you can see the stars through the skylight. ”
“Look at the stars! "Feng Ying continued to respond mindlessly.
Gordon: "."
Damn rich people. (End of this chapter)
