After washing, it is the customary morning feast.

Alina straightened her clothes as she began to sketch out the day's plan in her mind's eye.

Count DeHarus had long since stopped asking his only daughter about her daily arrangements. However, Alina will still be ready, and expects her father to call her as he did when he was a child.

However, as soon as the front foot stepped forward, Alina's figure froze.

At this moment, it is not in the Earl's Mansion, or even in the Foggy Castle, but in the Temple of Notos in Lakesprings.

A slight sigh rang in my ears.

Paying a little attention, Alina noticed that the sigh was coming from her own mouth. She pursed her lips to make the expression on her face look more dignified.

But a little girl who is less than ten years old looks like a serious adult, no matter how you look at it, she is mostly cute. For example, the man who appeared in the aisle not far in front of him showed a knowing smile.

Alina noticed the smile on the man's face. The smile is very sunny and looks quite warm, just like his older brother.

However, this warmth could not be transmitted to the little girl, she raised her head proudly and let out a heavy snort, and then slammed the door shut.

- It's the nasty young aristocrat of yesterday!

Although it was true that he was not very well received in the Earl's Palace, the retainers and knights basically walked around when they saw him. However, in the eyes of outsiders, Alina Otis von DiHarus is still the little lady of the Earl's family, and she is still an existence that must be looked up to. On weekdays, there is an endless stream of people who please and stammer, and it cannot be said that the gifts are soft, but the stars hold the moon is still well deserved.

But! Here it is! This little nobleman in front of him!

Alina felt her teeth itch and felt the urge to bite.

When the little nobleman saw him, he ran away, as if he had seen some kind of demon or monster. It's really not that old, and my body isn't open, but it's a beautiful fetus! It's too late for the others to come forward, and if you don't come up to offer courtesy, forget it, but you are afraid to avoid it...... It can't be some "hidden disease"!

Alina couldn't help but speculate maliciously in her heart.

- I'll look good after a while! See if I don't scare you half to death!

The slander in her heart softened the serious expression on the little girl's face. The corners of her mouth are slightly upturned, and she has a bit of vitality from a girl of the same age. But before she finished slandering, her stomach began to "growl". A huge feeling of hunger surged through the body.

- I'm so hungry.

I haven't eaten since the day I got sick. For several days, there were also some holy water inlets.

Alina looked at the closed door, slightly tangled in her heart.

In the past, I used to go to the hall to attend the morning banquet, and occasionally when there was no morning banquet, there were maids who brought breakfast. But at the moment at the Temple of Notos in Lakesprings, breakfast is ......

There were two calm knocks at the door.

Alina was slightly stunned, and hurriedly walked to the round table in the center of the room and sat down, straightened her hair, pulled the hem of her skirt, and made herself as dignified as possible, before she spoke:

"Please come in."

An old man's calm voice came from outside the door: "It's rude." ”

The door then opened, and Butler Garras, with a plate, appeared in the doorway.

A smile of joy instantly appeared on Aliana's face, but the smile was immediately forcibly suppressed by her, turning into a calm indifference.

"Miss Alina, this is your breakfast."

Gallas's butler also behaved in a decent manner, as if he were on business. He bowed slightly, then walked into the room and laid the plate on the round table.

The meals on the plate are simple. A fist-sized piece of brown bread, a bowl of vegetable broth with a few floating leaves and no oil splashes in sight, and five thin slices of bacon meat.

"Thank you."

Alina, who had nothing to look forward to breakfast, bowed her head slightly to express her gratitude. Under her gaze, the old butler bowed slightly again, said "Please use it slowly", and then left the room.

When the door closed again, Alina eagerly picked up the bowl and prepared to take a big sip.

Her mouth had reached the mouth of the bowl, but before she had taken the first sip, she silently put the bowl down again.

The staple food served on the side is a piece of brown bread, which is known for its hardness. Alina had eaten it many times, and she remembered this food that almost broke her teeth.

The brown bread you can buy in the bakery in the present world is in no way comparable to Elune's brown bread.

What is called brown bread today is actually whole wheat bread. The raw material used is not refined flour, but the cortex, germ, aleurone layer and less lotus bran that are milled off by the wheat mixture during the milling process. The process involves fermentation, and the bread is coated with a layer of plant seeds such as wheat kernels, pumpkin seeds, and sesame seeds to enhance the flavor and taste.

Elune's brown bread is not so much bread as a compressed, non-leavened dough cake. In addition to coarse wheat flour, there is also a large amount of bran, which is then baked directly - this is already the black bread that only the aristocracy can enjoy. As for the brown bread that the civilians eat...... This non-leavened dough will also contain sawdust, pebbles, and sometimes even small bugs, mice, and other things that can supplement protein.

How do you eat brown bread? Break a piece of black bread in the world and just put it in your mouth and chew it. Elune's black bread needs to be broken little by little and put in the soup and soaked until it is soft before eating.

The black bread that is not soaked is incredibly hard, so it is no problem as a blunt object for self-defense. For example, the Adventurer's Guild will often get the Adventurer's burglary, and then unfortunately the owner of the house will open it with black bread...... The hardness of brown bread can be imagined.

Alina was silent for a moment, endured the stomach that began to "growl" again, picked up the black bread and began to tear it piece by piece, and soaked the torn bread in the vegetable soup.

There are a few green slices of vegetables floating on top of the broth. This green vegetable is actually a seasonal winter wild vegetable with a crisp and juicy taste, and is often used by housewives to stew with meat to enhance the flavor. However, the soup made from this wild vegetable stew is not very good, there is not enough meat oil and seasoning to season it, and the wild vegetable soup exudes a grass smell that is not very popular. Housewives usually choose to throw it out. Of course, families with more financial constraints will also choose to stay. After all, it is stewed with meat, and there are some oily flowers and meat flavors in the soup, so it is a pity to pour it out.

Brown bread torn into small pieces rises and falls in the vegetable soup. It wasn't until all the brown bread was torn up and thrown into the soup that Alina took a shallow sip.

The peculiar grassy smell of wild vegetables and the bland and tasteless soup made the little girl frown. The food provided by the temple would certainly not be good, which had been expected, but it was still unexpected. Her gaze fell straight on the thin five slices of bacon in a small plate beside her. After a moment of hesitation, she scooped up a slice of bacon with a spoon and put it in her mouth.

- Hmm! It's so salty!

The bitter salty taste quickly spread in her mouth, and the little girl's eyes narrowed at the saltiness.

Bacons are likewise coarse. Except for the salty and salty taste, there is no meat taste at all. It's as hard to eat as a bland vegetable soup!

Alina hurriedly took a large sip of the soup, trying to dilute the salty taste in her mouth.

The bland soup immediately diluted the salty taste in her mouth, and the little girl's squinted eyes opened. At the same time, the brown bread soaked in the soup also slid down the soup into your mouth. The little girl then bit the uneven black bread into a "kazkaz".

When she swallowed the broth, bacon and brown bread in her mouth, Alina was nauseated, and then rolled her eyes slightly.

- Unpalatable!

Although she was not well received at the Earl's Mansion because of her status, she still enjoyed the treatment that the Earl's family lady deserved in the daily utensils, daily meals and clothing.

How many times had she ever eaten such coarse food? If it were in normal times, she would have gone on strike a long time ago, no, she would have stopped! Whoever brought this kind of thing and threw it directly in that guy's face!

But now......

The stomach was still growling, constantly protesting against the abuse of the master. There were neither standing attendants nor attendants around. Want a different meal...... Probably impossible. No, it should definitely not be.

Alina sighed, frowned again, and with an expression as if she was being punished, she took small sips of the vegetable soup soaked in black bread.

- If it's unpalatable, it's unpalatable, and soothing the belly that has begun to drum is the top priority.

The simple and coarse breakfast lasted a long time. Although it was hard to eat, the little girl did not leak anything and stuffed all the contents of the bowl into her stomach.

One of the house rules of the Count Diharus family was that food was not to be wasted, and the disc action was a must.

Putting down the spoon in her hand, Alina pouted, hurriedly filled a glass of water from the water bottle on the table, and then drank most of the glass in one gulp. Even though she was soaked in vegetable soup and had a lot of brown bread as a buffer, she was still salted by the salted meat.

I don't know if I should praise this salted meat as good, full of salt, and great value for money. Or should I say that this salted meat is too bad, except for salty or salty, the smell of meat is completely overshadowed, has it fallen into the salt jar or something else......

Breakfast is considered to have been dealt with. Alina didn't have a timer at hand, but she knew that she would take much longer to eat breakfast than she had spent at the Earl's Court.

The main reason for the long time is that the meal is too coarse and difficult to swallow. Brown bread, in particular, is still very hard even if it is soaked in water, and it takes a lot of effort to chew it every time. After eating, the whole cheek feels a little sore, quite an uncomfortable experience.

Alina raised her glass again, drank the water from the cup, and quickly packed up her plates and utensils - she would definitely not take them out and wash them, so she threw them into an inconspicuous corner of the room and waited for others to clean them up! Then the little girl returned to the round table and sat down, quietly waiting for the visitor.

- That annoying guy must have finished eating, right? After eating, you should come over!

The little girl thought so in her heart.

Unfortunately, her idea fell through. She waited for a long, long time, and could even see the sun rising little by little through the window outside her room.

When the sun reached its highest point of the day, Alina couldn't sit still. She got up in a huff and pushed the door open.

- What about people! Where's that annoying guy!
