Chapter 644: The Far North, the Kingdom of Snow! (1/2)
The door to the inn was pushed open, and snow drifted into the lounge with the entrance of four people. Leng Liuying’s cheerful voice resounded in the room, immediately earning a response from the busy waiter.
“Welcome, honored guests! Please take a seat, your Snow Milk Wine will be there shortly!”
Not long after Bai Xiaofei’s group sat at their table, the waiter came carrying four bowls of steaming milky-white wine.
“Here’s your Snow Milk Wine. Do you need anything else?” the waiter who was dressed in animal skin clothes asked with a respectful bow.
“Ask her, don’t mind me.” Bai Xiaofei pointed to Leng Liuying, who looked very eager.
After a month of tough roads, they had finally arrived in the Kingdom of Snow. Ever since they had stepped into its territory, Leng Liuying finally revealed her true nature. She, who was normally already active, became super enthusiastic about everything.
“One of every signature dish of your inn. Don’t use low-quality food to fool us, I’m an expert!” Leng Liuying generously waved her hand.
“Very good! Don’t worry, Master. While our shop looks small, we never meddle with low-quality stuff!” assured the waiter before retreating.
Meanwhile, Bai Xiaofei frowned slightly. “Why did he call you Master? Does everyone in the Snow Kingdom know you guys?”
At his question, the triplets smiled as if he had asked something foolish…
Indeed, it was idiotic to ask such questions in the Kingdom of Snow as it was just common sense.
“If he knew us, it wouldn’t be ‘Master,’ but ‘Your Highness.’” Leng Liuying proudly raised her chin. Since returning to her ‘turf,’ teaching Bai Xiaofei had been one of her daily pleasures.
“Don’t laugh, it’s his first time after all.” Even the gentle Leng Liushuang had also become a lot more cheerful after arriving. The most evident proof was that she talked a lot more.
“The Snow Kingdom is the country with the most cases of multiple births in the whole continent. Legend has it that our ancestor adored multiple births so much that he prayed to Heaven for it, and the next year after that, the queen gave birth to a pair of twins. In order to show his gratitude, he promulgated a law that families who birth twins would be directly promoted to nobles and those who birth triplets, directly to viscounts and they would get to enjoy benefits of that status.”
“This verbal law has been passed down until now and no emperor ever dares to amend it. Therefore, the Snow Kingdom has become the most populated country in the north region.”
Bai Xiaofei was enlightened by Leng Liushuang’s explanation. So, the bartender had taken the Leng triplets for daughters of a viscount.
There was definitely something amiss when she was this active to promote something, but Bai Xiaofei couldn’t figure out what exactly it was. When he dubiously raised the steaming wine bowl to his nose and smelled it, his face abruptly changed.
This smell…
How to describe it? It was similar to fermented goat’s milk. With the smell drilling into his nostrils, Bai Xiaofei almost lost his composure. But the triplets were staring at him, so he bit the bullet and drank it.
