Working Prophet

Chapter 107 The runaway eldest lady

Although she was reluctant, Angela had to admit after tasting the New Orleans grilled chicken in front of her that this dish was indeed delicious.

Not only that, but she actually liked the plate of chili sauce that was served later. She had already eaten half of it. The strange, painful and refreshing taste was simply irresistible.

But the more delicious it was, the angrier she felt.

Because these all belong to that dead country rabbit.

Since childhood, Angela has always had the best things among her peers.

The Emmanuel family is the richest man in the West, and her father is the head of the Emmanuel family. He dotes on his little daughter infinitely in terms of food and clothing, and he can't wait to give her all the good things.

This has also developed Angela's current arrogant and arrogant character to a certain extent. What she can't bear the most is that someone has something better than her.

And not long ago, a batch of amazingly good peppercorns suddenly appeared in Black Rock City.

These peppercorns immediately attracted the attention of the Emanuel family, and after some investigation, they successfully found the sellers behind them - the Arias family of Green Field.

And the investigation of the Emanuel family ends here.

Although Arias is not a wealthy family, it is undoubtedly a powerful force in the Western Territory. The Figuerola family protects them. The Emmanuel family cannot fall out with the Arias family just for some pepper.

Although those peppers were once sold to sky-high prices, the quantity was limited after all, and Ilea was restricted by Li Yu and could only be sold once every twenty days. This also gave the Emmanuel family a judgment that what Ilea had on hand was There isn't much inventory either.

As for tax evasion, many nobles actually do it secretly, through middlemen. Even if you find out where the goods come from, it is difficult to find definite evidence.

Moreover, the Emmanuel family is not willing to break up with other nobles over this kind of thing, and usually turns a blind eye.

So as usual, Theodosi, the head of the Emmanuel family, threw the matter aside.

But he didn't expect that he had forgotten this matter, but his daughter had not forgotten it.

Yes, Ilea guessed it right, but not completely.

This time the matter was indeed related to the pepper she had sold earlier, but rather than saying that the Emmanuel family was targeting her, it was more that Angela had made her own decision.

The eldest daughter of the Emmanuel family, who is favored by thousands of people, took the initiative to attend the banquet on behalf of her father. She wanted to find out the true source of the pepper, and then bypass the Arias family and directly establish a long-term trade with the opposite party. relation.

But after a cordial exchange with the new head of the Arias family outside the castle, Angela had already forgotten her original purpose. Now she just couldn't bear to see a certain dead rabbit.

Not to mention that guy kept quarreling in front of her.

He deliberately pinched a piece of chicken and kept shaking it in front of her face. After finishing the meal, he pointed at Angela's plate and asked with a smile, "Is it enough? There is more, don't be brave... After tonight, what do you want?" I can’t eat anymore.”

Angela's anger suddenly surged up. She pushed the plate forward and said angrily, "What's the big deal? Roast chicken is just food for the common people. No matter how delicious it is, it can't be put on the table." !”

She was completely pissed off. Different from before, this time the element of anger was obviously more serious. It sounded no different from cheating.

But instead of being angry, Ilea across from him grinned with a stern smile.

Seeing that smile, Angela suddenly started to panic, although she didn't know what she said wrong.

Miss Rabbit had already snapped her fingers, "Very good, I'm just waiting for your words, otherwise this banquet won't be enjoyable."

After saying this, she continued without anyone reminding her, "Someone, bring up the Great Wall wine collected by the Arias family and open the eyes of this country bumpkin."

How could you not slap the face that came to your door? !

Soon the waiter brought the two bottles of wine.

Just the exquisite glass bottle and the label on the bottle dazzled the nobles and amazed them.

However, Li Yu also made some mistakes this time. He only remembered to bring red wine to Miss Rabbit, but he forgot to give her a bottle opener.

As a result, the waiter struggled there for a long time and failed to pour the wine out of the bottle. Finally, the new manager Yago had an idea, pulled out the knife from his waist, and cut off the top of the bottle with one knife.

And he didn't know that his knife also struck Ilea's heart.

This bottle is so beautiful. Miss Rabbit originally wanted to pick up the empty bottle and sell it for money after she finished drinking. Why can't she sell it for hundreds of gold coins? Now it's okay. With one blow, at least half of the money is gone.

Ilea, who had always been diligent and thrifty, felt a sudden pain in her heart, but she still acted nonchalant on the surface, waving her hand and asking the waiter to quickly pour the wine.

At the same time, he glared at Yago. Unfortunately, the latter took office too short and failed to understand the spirit. He raised his knife and clicked another bottle of red wine. The last nobleman present shared a small glass of dry red wine. .

And after several surprises before, this time everyone no longer dared to underestimate the Arias family's treasures.

First he glanced at the red wine in the glass, and his eyes were quickly attracted by the beautiful color.

Every nobleman on the continent of Bratis drinks wine, and there are wineries all over the south. The grapes produced are even famous overseas, so everyone here has drank a lot of good wine.

But no one has ever seen such pure wine pulp. There is no impurity in it, and the color is bright red but not turbid, just like red silk.

So beautiful! Many people are not even willing to drink it.

Someone put the wine glass under their nose, took a light sniff, and was immediately intoxicated by the rich fruity aroma inside.

Oh my god, is this really what wine can smell like?

You must know that no matter how good the wine is on the Bratis continent, it is difficult to completely eliminate the sour smell, and even some spices have to be added to cover up the sour taste. There is no such mellow taste.

Shake the cup a little, and the aroma inside will overflow from the cup.

As for the taste... it's a bit strange. When you first drink it, you can barely notice any sweetness, and it's even a little bitter, but it has an inexplicable refreshing feeling. It tastes very smooth, with a long and layered aftertaste. It’s a great wine without a doubt!

Angela's face was as pale as a blank sheet of paper. She knew that she had lost again, and she had been slapped in the face three times in a row. At this moment, she felt like the dwarfs who were performing hard in the hall. The meaning of existence Just for people to laugh at.

Now, whenever the eldest lady of the Emmanuel family hears the slightest laughter or whispers around her, she feels that the other person is ridiculing her. She becomes restless, and finally she can't bear it anymore, and bursts into tears, and then He actually covered his face and ran away from the banquet hall.
