I was a god in the 18th century

Chapter 28 Panacea
  Xia Shanglu went back to his room to take a nap. Xia Qingdai, who had already dressed and was sitting in the balcony study studying questions, quickly put down the pen in her hand and tiptoed to the entrance to change her shoes. Then she opened the door and ran downstairs. .

But there wasn't that local dog at the bottom of the corridor. No wonder it was so quiet coming down from upstairs.

Xia Qingdai stood outside the door on the first floor and listened for a while. She found that the room was very quiet. She concluded that the person and the dog had probably gone out.

So she turned around and walked to the iron door of the corridor without saying a word, opened the door and went out.

It was only half past four in the morning, it was still dark, and there was no trace of morning light.

During this time, only the park is the most popular. There are many old men and women who get up early, singing Huangmei Opera and playing erhu, as well as people doing Tai Chi, morning jogging, and walking races.

Xia Qingdai chooses to go straight through the park when going to and from school every day, so that she can shorten the way to the bus stop. Therefore, she is very familiar with the scenes in the park.

After wandering around for a while, she heard the sound of arguing in her ears. The high-pitched accent sounded like the old lady on the first floor.

Sure enough, Xia Qingdai followed the sound and squeezed over to see that the old lady had another quarrel with an old man, and the reason was again because of that stupid dog.

This elderly dragon and phoenix duo have progressed from exchanging patois to "Back off, back off!"

At first glance, it looked like he had been taught magical skills by a qigong master when he was young.

Xia Qingdai was not interested in the dragon-phoenix fight and glanced away.

Oh yo! This native dog must have developed courage. He actually fought with a majestic Rottweiler.

The owners of the two dogs were throwing magic spells at each other, and the two dogs were also fighting inextricably in the grass in the park, with their hair flying everywhere.

"Could this thing have a stimulant effect?" Xia Qingdai murmured to herself.

Not long after, a shocking scene appeared. The Rottweiler just let out a "whimper", emerged from the grass with its tail between its legs, and ran away without even wanting its owner.

The native dog also jumped out, and after only two steps of pursuit, it suddenly stopped and turned its head towards Xia Qingdai who was watching, wagging its head and tail like a pug.

I don’t know if it’s because of the lighting, but this normally dry native dog looks oily and smooth today, and its dog eyes seem to be shining, as if he’s just entered a pet hospital and taken a miracle drug and received a major health care regimen.

"Peace! My peace!" The two dogs ended the fight, and the old dragon and phoenix stopped fighting.

The smiling crowd dispersed, and the old lady stepped forward to inspect the native dog in her arms.

Xia Qingdai has carefully confirmed that the dog's fur has indeed become shiny, and it has no intention of being aggressive at all. Instead, it seems to have high fighting spirit.

After confirming the result, Xia Qingdai walked back.

It seems that the tobacco is indeed a good thing. She will continue to observe this native dog in the past few days and then decide how to deal with the tobacco next time.

When I got home, the sky began to light up slightly.

But it was still early, just after five o'clock, so Xia Qingdai decided to go into the castle to eat and get stuck.

This time happens to be Owen's dinner and Xia Qingdai's breakfast.

After entering the castle, she went straight to the restaurant. Owen was already sitting on the long dining table, which had two steaks and two mashed potato balls, as well as a bowl of noodles and a plate of strawberry and apple salad.

Seeing Xia Qingdai appear, Owen immediately stood up, bowed slightly, and waved to the servants behind him, letting them all go down.

The servants looked at the direction of Owen's bow with concern, guessing that the invisible Eastern God had appeared again. They did not even dare to breathe hard when they went out, for fear of disturbing the God.

Xia Qingdai sat down opposite Owen and took a look at tonight's dishes.

Owen already understood her very well. The mashed potato balls were on the plate in front of him. Xia Qingdai's side was beef, noodles, and fruit salad. The tomato sauce in this noodle was also given to Owen by Xia Qingdai. As for the noodles, the chef makes them by hand using flour.

To be honest, the current chef at the castle is not suitable for receiving this salary at all.

This level of hand-made noodles is incomparable to Huaxia’s Huihui Ramen, Jingcheng Mixed Sauce Noodles, and Lingnan Wonton Noodles, as well as to the machine-made egg noodles in supermarkets!

There is no soul at all in the handmade noodles, and the color, smell and taste are not stained at all!

Xia Qingdai silently pushed the bowl of noodles in front of Owen, and decided to only eat steak and fruit salad.

Owen, who had eaten the food cooked by Xia Qingdai himself, had some idea of ​​the level of the chef in the castle, but he had no better way.

In fact, this chef is already the taller among the dwarfs, and what others cook is truly dark cuisine.

"This Christmas is coming to an end!" Xia Qingdai sighed after finishing the meal.

"Yeah," Owen said, looking at her, "It's a perfect Christmas."

"Perfect?" Xia Qingdai nodded, "Indeed, forget it, the dance last night was still very interesting."

It was still early for school, so the two left the dining room and went to the fireplace in the living room, warming themselves and taking English classes.

Apart from anything else, Xia Qingdai's English listening and speaking skills have definitely improved a lot now. No learning method is as profound as immersive experience.

It wasn't until 7:30 that Xia Qingdai changed her mind and left the castle and returned to modern times.

It's time for her to pack her schoolbag and go to school.

On this rare weekend, Xia Shanglu was probably still asleep.

As a result, when she passed the kitchen area with her schoolbag on her back, she saw a few red soft girl coins and a note on it.

"Sister, this is your food expenses for next month. Brother has gone to work, please remember to buy breakfast."

Xia Qingdai looked at the shoes that Xia Shanglu had recently worn under the shoe cabinet. Sure enough, they were gone. She must have left them while she was concentrating on studying in the castle.

She had to work overtime early in the morning on weekends, and Xia Qingdai felt tired for Xia Shanglu.

This grassroots job is really a busy one!
  Xia Qingdai put the money in the desk drawer of the balcony study room before opening the door and going to school.

It’s another day of naval battles!

Today, Xia Qingdai also brought a gift to her deskmate as a return gift for giving her a mini house.

This gift was none other than one of the dresses Owen asked the tailor in the town to make for her. It is a pure white skirt in the style of an ancient Greek goddess. The fabric is very elegant and the stitching is very fine. It can be worn as a nightgown or as a daily wear.

Neoclassical style skirts would not look exaggerated even if placed in modern times. There are many similar styles online.

Her deskmate Xu Yan was quite surprised to receive this gift. She vaguely knew about Xia Qingdai's family situation and sometimes wanted to help her. But no matter what she gives, Xia Qingdai will definitely return the gift.

For Xia Qingdai, she doesn't like to owe favors. She has no parents, but she has a brother!
  Her brother never lacked her in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

In the past, Xia Shanglu was reluctant to buy a good down jacket for himself, but he would never be vague about the one he gave to Xia Qingdai.
