What is it like to be a teacher as a magister?

Chapter 28 Mansion and Manor

Ke Lin began to hesitate whether to accept the reserve ticket. After all, the amount was too large. What would the teacher and senior sister think if they found out?
Before he could answer, however, Harvey Sr. slid the ticket aside, revealing a larger piece of paper underneath.

"Because I heard that Mr. Wayne has no residence in the city for the time being. In case it is inconvenient to stay overnight, the master specially selected a two-story mansion with a courtyard in the garden area. It is not too spacious. I hope it will be used as an occasional residence for you. Use it on your feet."

Before Colin recovered from the ticket deposit just now, he suffered another critical blow.

What do you mean?
Is this going to give me a house?
Or in the Garden District where the rich gather?
He already sensed something was wrong this time, and was going to refuse on the spot.

But before the words came out, the old Harvey repeated his tricks, revealing the bottom and largest piece of paper.

"In addition, there is a manor under the master's name, which happens to be at the foot of the mountain not far from the mage's tower outside the city. She is usually too busy to go there, thinking that it would be a waste to be empty, so I gave it to Mr. Wayne, you When you are free, you can also have a place to relax."

After the old Harvey finished speaking, he bowed his head and waited with a sincere face.

Colin was about to speak several times, but he was always tongue-tied, not knowing what to say.

A mansion in the city, a manor outside the city, plus 500 gold lang.

Where is this reward?
This is to take care of me! ! !
Think about me, Colin Wayne, although I have good features and can be regarded as handsome, but it should not be worth the price.

Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem to be a disadvantage...

Moreover, although Ms. Finiya is a few years older, she has outstanding looks and is very feminine...

wrong!

Damn!

What am I thinking? !

Colin quickly drove these messy thoughts out of his mind, and said to Harvey seriously:
"Mr. Harvey, I appreciate Ms. Phinea's kindness, but these things are too expensive, please forgive me for not accepting any of them."

If 500 gold lang is barely justified, then mansions and manors are completely different.

There must be something he doesn't know about.

Although because of the teacher, the other party should not dare to play tricks on him, but Ke Lin would not accept such things that were obviously beyond his tolerance and unclear, so he refused very simply, even the 500 Jin Lang also rejected it.

Old Harvey did not show surprise, as if he knew that Colin would react in this way, and said:

"Mr. Wayne, this is indeed just the master's wish. Please don't dislike the shabby gift."

Without waiting for Colin to answer, he showed a respectful and humble smile, and continued: "Besides, when I was waiting for Mr. Wayne, I stopped by Miss Tessa, and she has also read the gift list."

Ke Lin was already too lazy to listen to the other party, but the last sentence made him stunned.

Sister knows about this?
But no objection?
Maybe I really thought too much, the Youjin Chamber of Commerce just transferred the property to the senior sister or teacher through myself?

Why?

Ms. Phiniya is obviously very familiar with her senior sister, so why bother?
He was a little uncertain for a while, looked at the cautious old Harvey with his head bowed in front of him, and thought that since the senior sister has a lot, he should accept it first, and go back to confirm, if there is no such thing, let the senior sister It's not hard to get it back.

Thinking of this, Ke Lin nodded slightly: "In this case, I will accept it for the time being, and I will thank Ms. Finiya in person next time."

Harvey heard that he intended to return the gift to the owner in person, but his task was only to send the things out today, and he didn't have to worry about the future, so he bowed and said with a smile:

"Praise be to your generosity."

……

After seeing off old Harvey, Colin hurried up the stairs, reached the 23rd floor, and knocked on the door of the senior sister's room.

"Please come in."

Ke Lin skillfully pushed the door open and entered, and saw the senior sister sitting at the desk by the window, sewing a piece of black clothing.

"Sister."

"I'm looking for you, come and sit." Tessa didn't look up, and motioned for Colin to sit on the opposite chair.

Colin sat down obediently.

Tessa picked up the unfinished half of the fabric, put it in front of Colin, and compared it twice.

"Is this for me?"

Ke Lin was moved. Although all the clothes were prepared by his senior sister after he came to the Wizard Tower, it seemed to be the first time for him to sew by himself.

"I haven't sewed for two years, I don't know if my craftsmanship has deteriorated." Tessa lowered her head and counted the ends of the thread.

The setting sun came in from the window, covering half of her body and face with gold, which was extremely warm.

"Senior Sister must look good." Ke Lin finished flattering first, and then asked curiously: "What kind of clothes are they?"

"Temporarily keep it secret, I'll show you when it's ready." Tessa smiled.

"Oh." Colin was very obedient.

Thinking of the purpose of coming here, he took out the deposit ticket and the two house deeds, and put them on the prototype small coffee table next to them.

"Senior sister, just now Mr. Harvey from the Youjin Chamber of Commerce came to me and gave me these things."

"Ah."

Tessa didn't seem to take it seriously, she was still staring at the needle and thread intently.

"Then I'll put it here."

"Why did you put the things they gave you here?" Tessa raised her head and asked in confusion.

"Isn't this what you asked me to hand over to you?" Colin asked.

Tessa smiled and said, "You helped the chamber of commerce repair the loom, and that's why Ms. Finia expressed her gratitude. If you want to give it to me, why should you hand it over?"

"But, these..."

"Why, don't you like it?"

Tessa put down the fabric and needlework, picked up two land deeds, looked at them for a moment and said:

"I know this manor. I have attended a garden banquet before. The place is quite spacious and not far from here. It takes only a quarter of an hour to drive by carriage. As for this mansion... No. 91 Locke Street, although I have never been there , but the address should be a good location. If I remember correctly, the White Rose Theater is on that street... Well, I haven't been to the theater for a long time, and I still have two satisfactory dresses that I haven't worn..."

Seeing the senior sister talking further and further away, Ke Lin hurriedly stopped:

"Sister, I know it's good."

"Then why don't you like it?" Tessa asked suspiciously.

"Don't you think it's a big deal?" Colin said helplessly.

Tessa smiled and said: "Ms. Phinea has always been very generous, and she has never made a mistake in her vision. Since she is willing to pay such a reward, she must be justified."

"But……"

Before Colin could finish speaking, Tessa waved her hand and said:

"Okay, don't bother me with such trivial things, I have to think about the style of clothes."

……

Colin walked out of the room in a daze.

Is this a trifle?
He looked at the house deed and the reserve ticket in his hand with a dazed expression on his face.
