I was a god in the 18th century

Chapter 37 This is called durian

A manservant like Paul, who was subservient to his master, was very callous in front of the tenants and poor peasants.

Even in the castle, as a valet, he treated the servants, grooms, cooks and other lower-level servants with great dignity.

It was as if the grievances he suffered from his beloved had to be made up for by people of lower status than him. Only in this way can his aggrieved mood be relieved.

At this time, Owen was so tolerant of the despicable thieves, which made Paul very dissatisfied.

If a bitch commits a crime and goes unpunished, it will be worse than if he himself were punished.

He wished he could tie this poacher to the back of the carriage in the correctional center and whip him so hard that he would be covered in bruises, so that he could understand what etiquette and shame were and relieve his anger!
  But Paul did not dare to disobey the new master's orders.

In the past, when old Mr. Irving was in charge, the servants in the castle were always working in secret. Now that the new owner has brought an invisible "god" over, who would dare?

They didn't even dare to speak ill of their master, and had to keep their mouths shut even in their dreams.

After Paul led the poacher Jack out of the study, Xia Qingdai asked Owen: "Isn't that poacher your tenant?"

"No," Owen replied. "He is a tenant of Squire Brown's house next door."

Xia Qingdai recalled for a while and asked: "Brown is the family with two sons and two daughters, right? Is it from the same parish as here? The pastors are all Mr. Austin."

Owen smiled: "Yes."

The goddess still misses the Austin family and asked him to give them gifts several times.

"There are guests coming this time. I can hold another ball and invite your favorite Miss Jane Austen."

Xia Qingdai said with joy on her face: "Okay, okay! But we have to wait a little longer. I don't have time this week, I have to take an exam!"

"Okay, it's up to you."

After the two said a few words, Owen was silent for a moment and asked her: "Ms. Xia, what did you put in the glass in the living room just now? The smell is so unique."

Xia Qingdai showed a proud smile: "This is durian. They are very expensive fruits here, but they are delicious!"

In order to eat enough durian, Xia Qingdai turned into a villain and went into the castle to eat. If Xia Shanglu knew about this operation, he would definitely praise her for being so clever.

The Musang King durian suddenly became bigger than a human being. Isn’t this happier than going to Singapore, Matai and eating at a durian buffet restaurant?
  After all, those high-quality durians like Musang King are unlikely to be available in those all-you-can-eat durian shops.

Some durians from poor origins have very bad taste and are inferior varieties that will not be imported to China.

"Durian?" Owen was confused, "Is this a fruit from heaven?"

"This is a fruit from Southeast Asia. There are many in your colonies. There must have been some fleets that brought it back to the UK. Someone in London must know about it."

Owen looked ashamed: "I don't know enough. It turns out that there are such huge fruits in the far east."

Xia Qingdai knew that he had misunderstood, and waved her hands quickly: "No, no. The durian native to your world is only this big."

She stretched out her hands to gesture, and then continued: "This is from my world."

"Oh, that's it. I understand."

"Hehe, let's go, call your guests, and let's start the durian buffet mode, which is perfect for pre-dinner fruit!"

"Ok."

The guests were still visiting the castle at this time. After receiving the news from the little maid, Lim led others to the living room on the first floor.

As soon as they entered the room, a strong, smelly and fragrant smell hit them, and several people held their breath involuntarily. If he hadn't seen this thing flying in from the sky with his own eyes, Lim would definitely have started mumbling mode.

According to her more than ten years of maid experience, the master, as a gentleman, should not eavesdrop on a maid's mumblings.

This allows a gentleman to deceive others.

Therefore, by relying on this kind of mumbling, servants can tell their masters their dissatisfaction and avoid punishment for saying wrong things.

But it’s different now, because this is not the owner’s thing, it’s a gift from God.

Who has the courage to belittle God-given things?
  I don’t even know how to die!
  In order to keep her respectable job as a maid at the Villa, Lim would rather remain unmarried. How could she offend a God who is nobler and omnipresent than the owner of the Villa!
  Holding her breath was her greatest resistance. After bringing the person into the living room, she quickly bowed and retreated.

But Owen stopped her and told her to fetch some cutlery and plates.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements for you right away, sir." Lim swung her skirt and flew out of the living room, her hurried look making Xia Qingdai laugh.

Before the guests returned to the living room, Owen had already asked Xia Qingdai for her opinion.

So when everyone arrived, Owen introduced both parties.

Of course, Brutner and the others could see nothing but air.

But at least they know that there is an invisible "god" in this room at this time.

Brutner's wife has been whispering the Bible in her mouth, as if she hopes to generate holy light to resist the threat of alien gods.

The reason why Xia Qingdai was not afraid of affecting Gauss's views and chose to let him know her existence was mainly because she wanted to ask him to teach mathematics during the winter vacation and become a tutor.

No matter how weird things happen, you will get used to it if you are scared!

This is different from Jane Austen, who wrote novels and was sensitive.

Men of letters talk about romance, mathematicians talk about logic.

Newton believed in God all his life, which did not stop him from studying so many physics, mathematics, astronomy, etc. and came up with a bunch of theorems.

Gauss was also religious, which did not delay him from becoming the prince of mathematics.

None of them are atheists, but this does not hinder their achievements in astronomy. Studying the mysteries of the universe did not collapse their faith.

So Xia Qingdai believes that Gauss can withstand any wind and rain! What a mere invisible god!
  The dishes, knives and forks were brought, and Xia Qingdai stepped on the chair and asked Owen to come over and help cut the durian.

In the eyes of others, they can only see knives and forks flying around the durian.

Brutner's wife couldn't bear what she saw and fainted with an "ouch", which shocked Xia Qingdai.

Fortunately, she recovered quickly after being helped to the lounge, otherwise Xia Qingdai would have been under great psychological pressure.

Okay, I'm sure, this is another "Ye Gong loves dragons".

Mingming kept talking about "God" all the time, which really made her faint when she saw unnatural phenomena.

The remaining Brutner and his assistant Martin, as well as Gauss and Owen, are relatively strong psychologically.

Everyone frowned and tried to share the durians in their hands. After biting through the thin film on the skin, their mouths were filled with sweetness, which instantly conquered the taste buds of several people.

Most ancient Europeans had a sweet tooth!
