Chapter 4 Morning Dew After Rain
Morning dew after rain?

At first hearing this name, Leon felt inexplicably familiar.Seems like I've heard it somewhere.But thinking about it carefully, I can't think of anything.

Seeing Leon's thoughtful appearance, Eton didn't seem to be fake, and asked with a little surprise: "Don't Viscount Pat know?"

"I haven't inherited the title yet. Earl Eton doesn't need to call me that, just call me Leon." Leon shook his head after finishing speaking: "The morning dew after the rain sounds familiar, but I really can't remember it. what."

Eaton took a deep look at Leon, reached out and took a wooden box from the attendant and handed it to Leon.

"Do you have an impression of this box?"

This is a beautifully carved wooden box. The carved picture is very different from the popular relief paintings in the empire. The simple outline of the ups and downs shows the curves of the moiré.This is a completely different style from today's genre, and others may not know it, but Lyon just has an impression of it - this is simply old Jon's tea box.

Could it be that Jon's enemy came to the door?
"This should be... a box for stuff, right?" Leon originally wanted to say that it was a tea box, but after thinking for a moment, he changed his mind.Even if he doesn't like old man Jon, who makes his most beloved younger brother respect and love Jon more?Even for that, he wouldn't expose Jon.

It was also that Leon was too young. Although he quickly restrained his expression, the moment of surprise was captured by Eaton.

"You don't remember this box?" A questioning voice.

"No." Leon said without hesitation.

After a long time, Eaton curled the corners of his mouth, and a cold light flashed across his eyes.Coldly said: "Well, since Viscount Pat has no impression, then we will not waste time, farewell!"

As Eaton and his entourage left, Leon's face slowly sank.

Such a decisive departure, coupled with Eaton's cold and murderous intent before leaving, Leon had a bad premonition.

After thinking about it, Leon instructed the knights in the manor to be on alert, and he rushed to the stilted building where old Jon was.

This is the second time he has come to Diaojiaolou today, but his mood is completely different.

Came in a hurry, with a gust of wind.Shake the low grass blades in the yard up and down.

"Brother, why are you here?" Seeing that Leon's face was wrong, Angel didn't play "you are here" anymore. He just thought that something major happened, and hurriedly asked.

"Have you seen the tea box? It's old Jon's box for tea." Leon said as he quickly went up to the second floor and pushed open the door of Jon's bedroom.

Angel followed: "Tea box?" Angel took out a round carved dragon box from the small foot cabinet on one side, "Is this what you're talking about?"

Jon was sitting at the desk reading a book - the dumb servant turned the pages and he was in charge of reading - Leon's big movements were naturally caught in his eyes.

"What? Leon, your kid is enlightened, and you know how to appreciate the tea I have here?" Jon laughed.

The Gorilla Empire also has tea, but it's nothing like the one Jon concocts.The tea of ​​the Golden Sparrow Empire, to be precise, is a drink made of flowers, syrup, and milk, which is a bit like milk tea.Angel and Jon both like to drink tea with strong milk flavor, but Jon himself rarely drinks this kind of tea. The tea he drinks is all tea leaves picked from the green tea trees he grows. other seasonings.The tea garden where Oli worked before was built and managed by Jon himself when he was in good health, but when he became unwell, he was handed over to the head maid Mana to take care of it.

Leon ignored Jon's ridicule and took the tea box from Angel.

Leon frowned and said, "No."

"What's wrong?"

"Textures, this box is carved with basilisks, and the box I'm talking about is carved with lines like waves." Leon recalled the box he saw in Eaton's hands earlier.

"Basilisk? Brother, it's actually a dragon."

"Dragon? Never seen such a slender dragon."

Angel knew that talking with Leon about the mythology and culture of different worlds must be unclear, so he no longer refuted, but said: "The teacher's own box for tea is usually carved from dragons. In addition, the teacher gives his mother The rose tea box was carved with peach patterns, my father’s tea box was carved with bat patterns, and there are some other types of carved boxes. The wave-like patterns you mentioned should be cloud patterns for gifts.”

"It turns out that the old man's box carving is so elaborate? I haven't found it before." Leon showed a surprised look, and immediately recovered, and said to Angel: "That should be the cloud pattern, where is the cloud pattern box?"

Angel glanced at Leon strangely: "Didn't I say, the moiré box is for gifts, there's no one here. My father once asked the tutor to carve a batch of moiré boxes, except for gifts, they should all be piled up in warehouse?"

"Lion, tell me, what happened?" It was Jon who spoke. Although he never opened his mouth, he kept paying attention to Leon's expression. Leon's expression was anxious from beginning to end, and his brows never loosened.

Leon looked at Jon, looked up and down for a while, and then slowly said: "Today, Earl Eton of the Munn family..."

……

"Hehe, so boy Leon is worried that the old man and my enemy will come to the door?" After listening to Leon's words, Jon laughed.

"Who cares about you! I'm just trying to hide it for you for Angel's sake." Leon turned his head awkwardly, shouting.

Angel also slandered on the side, always thinking that his brother's attributes were machismo, and it turned out that there was still the legendary arrogant attribute!
"Tell me, what's your holiday with Earl Eaton? Today he came and went in a hurry, especially when he left, his eyes were too fierce. If it can be resolved, I will try my best to resolve it. If not, you may Just ask yourself for more happiness.”

"No holiday." Jon said without hesitation.

"No holiday? How is that possible! The box in his hand was obviously carved by you!"

Jon looked at Leon: "I'm in this world, and I only know people within the town of Gru. I don't need to lie about it."

Jon came to this world with physical problems, coupled with language and cultural barriers, and it took Jon several years to adapt with the help of Viscount Pat.After he has almost adapted to this world, his limbs have begun to show signs of atrophy, and naturally it is impossible to travel far.Therefore, Jon has been to the farthest place for so many years, just following old Pat to the capital of the empire for medical treatment, so his connections have not been broadened, and it is even more impossible to have a grudge with others.

Seeing Leon's expression, Angel was a little puzzled, and said, "The mentor didn't lie, and there's no need to lie. Maybe... my brother's idea was wrong at the beginning, and Earl Eaton may not know that there is a mentor at all."

"How?" Leon said.

"According to what my brother said, Earl Eton came for one thing, and he asked the morning dew after the rain at the beginning. It should be for this, right?" Angel tilted his head slightly, this was his thinking Shi Habit: "But isn't the morning dew after the rain just a kind of tea, for tea? It always feels a little wrong."
