Chapter 4 Morning dew after rain

 Morning dew after rain?

When he first heard this name, Leon felt inexplicably familiar. It seemed that he had heard it somewhere. But when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't think of anything.

Seeing Lyon's deep thought, Eaton didn't seem to be faking it. He asked with a hint of surprise: "Don't Viscount Pat know?"

"I haven't inherited the title yet. Earl of Eaton doesn't need to call me that. Just call me Lyon." After finishing speaking, Lyon shook his head: "The morning dew after the rain sounds very familiar, but I really can't remember what it is."

What."

Eaton looked at Lyon deeply, reached out and took a wooden box from the attendant and handed it to Lyon.

"Do you have any impression of this box?"

This is a beautifully carved wooden box. The carved picture is very different from the relief paintings popular in the empire. It simply outlines the ups and downs to show the curves of the cloud pattern. This is a completely different style from today's school. Others may not recognize it, but Lyon is right about it.

It has an impression - this is basically old man Jon's royal tea box.

Could it be that Jon’s enemy has come to visit?

"This should be...a box to put things in, right?" Leon originally wanted to say that it was a tea box, but after thinking for a moment, he changed his mind. Even if he didn't like old man Jon, who made his beloved brother treat Joe so much?

What about En Jing and Love? Even for this reason, he would not expose Jon.

It was also because Leon was too young. Although he quickly calmed down his expression, the surprise at that moment was still captured by Eaton.

"You have no impression of this box?" A questioning voice.

"No." Leon said without hesitation.

After a long time, Eaton curled up the corner of his mouth, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He said coldly: "Okay, since Viscount Pat has no impression, let's not waste time and say goodbye!"

As Eaton and his entourage left, Leon's face slowly darkened.

With such a decisive departure, coupled with Eaton's cold and murderous intention before leaving, Lyon had a bad feeling.

After thinking about it, Leon ordered the knights raised by the manor to be on alert, and he quickly rushed to the stilted building where old man Jon was.

This was the second time he came to Diaojiaolou today, but his mood was completely different.

It came in a hurry and brought up a gust of wind, lifting the low grass blades in the yard and shaking them up and down.

"Brother, why are you here?" Seeing that Leon's expression was wrong, Angel stopped playing the "you're here" joke. He just thought something big had happened and asked hurriedly.

"Have you seen the tea box? It's the box that old Jon used to put tea in." Leon said as he quickly went up to the second floor and pushed open the door of Jon's bedroom.

Angel followed up: "Tea box?" Angel took out a round dragon-carved box from the small foot cabinet on the side, "Is this what you are talking about?"

Jon was originally sitting at the desk reading a book - the mute servant turned the pages and he was responsible for reading - Leon's big movements were naturally noticed by him.

"What's the matter? Leon, you've got your wits about you and you know how to appreciate the tea here?" Jon said with a smile.

The Golden Bird Empire also has tea, but it is completely different from the tea made by Jon. The tea of ​​the Golden Bird Empire, to be precise, is a drink made with flowers, syrup, and milk, which is somewhat similar to milk tea. Angel and

Jon likes to drink tea with strong milk flavor, but Jon himself rarely drinks this kind of tea. The tea he drinks is all tea leaves picked from the green tea trees he grows himself. It is purely handmade and does not add any other seasonings.

The tea garden where Ollie worked before was built and managed by Jon himself when he was still in good health. However, as he became unwell, he was handed over to the care of the head maid Mana.

Leon ignored Jon's teasing and took the tea box from Angel.

Leon frowned and said: "That's not right."

"What's wrong?"

"Texture, this box is engraved with a basilisk. The box I'm talking about is engraved with lines like waves." Leon said, recalling the box he saw in Eaton's hand earlier.

"Basilisk? Brother, this is actually a dragon."

"Dragon? I've never seen such a slender dragon."

Angel knew that talking to Leon about the mythology and culture of different worlds would definitely make things unclear, so he no longer refuted, but said: "The tutor's own tea box is usually made of carved dragons. In addition, the tutor gave it to my mother."

The rose tea box is carved with peach patterns, the tea box for my father is carved with bat patterns, and there are some other types of carved boxes. The wavy pattern you mentioned should be the moiré pattern used for gifts."

"So the old man's box is so exquisitely carved? I haven't noticed it before." Leon looked surprised, then came back to his senses and said to Angel: "Then it should be a moire pattern. Where is the moiré box?"
p>

Angel looked at Lyon strangely: "Didn't I tell you that moiré boxes are for gifts, and there are none here. My father once asked his tutor to carve a batch of moiré boxes. Except for those given as gifts, they should all be piled in

Warehouse?"

"Leon, tell me, what happened?" It was Jon who spoke. Although he never spoke, his eyes were always paying attention to Leon's expression. Leon's expression was anxious from beginning to end, and his brows never relaxed.
Leon looked at Jon, looked up and down for a while, and then slowly said: "Today, the Earl of Eaton of the Munn family..."

……

"Haha, it turns out that boy Lyon is worried that the old man and my enemies will come to visit?" After hearing what Lyon said, Jon said with a smile.

"Who is worried about you? I'm just hiding it for you for Angel's sake." Leon turned his head awkwardly and yelled.

Angel also complained, always thinking that his brother's attributes were machismo, but it turned out that he also had the legendary tsundere attribute!

"Tell me, what's the problem between you and the Earl of Eton? Today he came and left in a hurry. Especially when he left, his eyes were too fierce. If it can be resolved, I will try my best to resolve it. If not, you can

Just ask for blessings."

"There is no holiday." Jon said without thinking.

"No festival? How is that possible! The box he is holding was clearly carved by you!"

Jon looked at Leon: "The only people I know in this world are within the limits of Gru Town. I don't need to lie about this."

When Jon came to this world, he already had physical problems. Coupled with the language and cultural barriers, it took Jon several years to adapt with the help of Viscount Pat. After he almost adapted to this world, his limbs had already

He began to show signs of shrinking, so it was naturally impossible for him to travel far away. Therefore, the farthest place Jon has traveled to over the years was just to follow old Pat to the capital of the empire for treatment. Therefore, his network of contacts has not been broadened, and it is even less possible.

Make grudges with others.

Seeing Leon's confused expression, Angel also said: "The mentor did not lie, and there is no need to lie. Maybe... my brother's idea was wrong from the beginning. Maybe Earl Eaton didn't even know about the existence of the mentor."<

/p>

"How to say?" Leon said.

"According to what my brother said, Earl Eaton came here for one thing, and he asked about the morning dew after the rain at the beginning. Is he here for this, right?" Angel tilted his head slightly, this was what he was thinking.

Habits from time to time: "But isn't the morning dew after the rain just a kind of tea? Are you here to drink tea? I always feel that something is wrong."
