Chapter 48: Reward

Angelina didn't take Avlian to keep warm first, but took her to change clothes first.

Because Aflian only wore a set of tight-fitting leather armor, if it weren't for her windproof cloak, in this cold weather, even if she had an extraordinary constitution, she would still freeze to death.

Angelina happened to be about the same body shape as Aflian, so he gave her a white fur coat.

Of course, Ethan didn't know whether Angeli had given Aflian any underwear or anything like that. After all, he couldn't ask, and he couldn't let her take it off to look at it.

When Ethan saw Aphraim again in the captain's cabin, she had changed drastically. She was wearing a slender white fur coat, which complemented her elegant girlish temperament and made people's eyes brighten.

"Wow! This dress really suits you. You look like a goddess, Miss Aflian!" Ethan admired sincerely.

With that said, Ethan gave Angelina an appreciative look.

Angelina smiled knowingly.

After a few people sat down, Ethan started making tea.

Angelina, on the other hand, chatted with Aflian.

"Miss Aflian, you feel warm now!"

"Thank you for your help! I feel much warmer! In fact, I still feel a little hot! The heating measures here are really good. I should have come here earlier." Aflian smiled and expressed her gratitude.

“Haha!” Ethan smiled slightly after hearing this: “My wife arranged these, and the walls of each room are insulated with blankets.

Two iron stove bars are also arranged for heating. Together, the room can be maintained at a comfortable temperature.

And, as you can see, the iron grate is also covered with a layer of stone, which not only prevents fire but also conserves heat.

Even if the stove goes out, the temperature will not drop quickly, and the stone will slowly dissipate heat, ensuring long-term comfort.

Of course, there is another interesting thing.

These iron beams and pots placed on the iron stove grate can be used to boil water, so that there is hot water at all times.

Now I'm going to use this hot water to prepare something special for Ms. Aflian.

Miss Aflian, do you smell the fragrance? Why don't you guess what it is? "

Aflian was a little puzzled for a moment when she heard Ethan talk endlessly about the humble stove and didn't understand what Ethan wanted to express.

Thinking back later, Ethan pointed out in the first sentence that these were arranged by his wife, and he immediately understood.

So he said with a smile: "I can't guess it. But I can guess that your wife must be a clever and ingenious person. The layout here is really eye-opening to me.

Although simple, it is extremely practical and I was so comfortable that I almost fell asleep. "

When Ethan heard Aflian praising Angelina, he gave Avlian a thumbs up in his heart.

Isn't it just to praise Angelina that he's praising a broken stove here?

Of course, doing so is not without purpose, it is really a last resort.

When a beautiful woman suddenly comes to the house, he must express his attitude to Angelina.

Otherwise, if Angelina has random thoughts, it will be detrimental to family harmony.

Secondly, he also needs Angelina to step forward, entertain this elf lady for him, and bring him closer to the elf lady.

This is related to whether you can benefit from this elf in the future.

But he had no choice or time to explain this to Angelina.

Therefore, he could only use this clumsy compliment to express his feelings to Angelina.

Angelina couldn't understand Ethan's thoughts. For her, as long as someone praised her, she would be happy.

"Miss Aflian, you are so interesting! Ethan asked you to guess because he wanted to show off his invention of milk coffee." Angelina said with a smile: "But you only praise me!"

When Aflian heard about milk coffee, she immediately became interested: "I'm just telling the truth, but I have never heard of tea like milk coffee, I really want to try it!"

"Believe me, it's really delicious, fragrant and smooth!"

"Fragrant and smooth?"

"Hmm! If the coffee reserves weren't low, I would have eaten it as a meal!"

"That's too exaggerated!" Aflian opened her mouth wide.

…

Ethan felt extremely embarrassed as he listened to the two women chatting endlessly.

He really didn't understand that when talking about a cup of coffee, two people could use so many adjectives and make so many exaggerated expressions, as if something big had happened.

But in Ethan's understanding, normal women should be like this.

Otherwise, she will be like Sophia, scheming all day long, like a cold and heartless machine, whoever marries will be unlucky.

While the two were chatting, Ethan had already made milk coffee and served it in front of them.

"Please try it!"

"Then I'm welcome!"

After hearing Angelina's praise, Aflian couldn't wait for a long time.

As soon as the coffee was served, I took a sip immediately.

"Hmm... It's fragrant and sweet, so delicious!" Aflian took a sip and praised it: "Sir Ethan, if you don't mind, please teach me how to make milk coffee. I will bring it back to Al Beria, let my sisters try it too.”

"Of course! No problem!" Ethan smiled: "Actually, since there is no fresh milk here, I can only use milk powder to brew it, and the taste will be much worse.

When I return to Maruo City another day, I will let you taste real milk coffee! "

"real?"

"Of course! You're my friend!"

Ethan once again emphasized that they were friends. Although the other party did not admit it, it didn't matter.

But when Afulian heard this, her face became a little distressed, and she said carefully: "I remember you said in the morning that if I come to enjoy the service, I need to pay.

But now you call me a friend, does that mean I don't need to pay?"

"Uh!" Ethan was a little stunned, but he immediately reacted: "So this is how you elves understand friends.

But it doesn't matter, you can understand it any way you want, it's just a cup of coffee, and you don't need to pay!"

When Afulian heard this, her brows frowned: "My teacher said that if humans don't want our elves' rewards, then he must have a bigger intention.

Mr. Ethan, what is your intention?"

When Ethan heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he cursed in his heart: Your teacher is really a talent, how much loss must he have suffered to say such a thing.

Although Ethan knew that he had bad intentions, how could he admit it?

"I don't know whether your teacher is right or wrong.

But please rest assured that I am not such a person.

For me, friends are friends and transactions are transactions, which are two different things.

The reward I told you before refers to the real transaction.

Obviously, this coffee is not included!"

"Then why do you provide me with clothes, keep me warm, and give me delicious milk coffee?" Afulian asked sincerely.

Ethan smiled bitterly: "I have said it, because we are friends. For you elves, everything may be exchanged at an equal value, but for us humans, these are not worth mentioning at all."

"In fact, I don't want to be friends with you!" Afulian said truthfully: "I am very grateful for everything you have provided for me, and I have specially prepared a reward for this.

Of course, this reward is not the gold coins that you humans like, because I don't have it.

On the second day of setting foot on the mainland, I was cheated of all the gold coins on my body by a human.

Therefore, I can only provide you with a piece of news.

But please believe me, this news may be very important to you.

I hope you can agree!"
