Chapter-8: sign in system is active
Of course, she thinks it is a good thing for girls to be a little scheming and not be foolish enough to be deceived. (As long as it does not hurt anyone that is fine.) She thought. She heard her stomach growling and Wendy Lark looked at her brother Jerry beside her.
He was holding his stomach embarrassedly. "Oh, I'm so hungry. Something happened before the banquet even started." Wendy smiled slightly, took out two delicious chicken legs from somewhere, and handed one over.
"You don't want to eat?" Wendy asked "eat!" Jerry answered. Just then Wendy suddenly received a notification like thing in front of her face that made her eyes lit up. (I also have a system) she thought in her mind.
"Tring
Congratulations host you have successfully awakened the sign in system. As long as the host signs in you can get various rewards. There are many kinds of sign in like the daily sign in, sign in from a special place. The rewards changes based on the situation.
The rewards are temporarily stored in system space but once the item is taken out it cannot be put back in. No other item from outside cannot be put back into the system space. The current world is restricted to ancient setting…."
There are few other instructions for her from the system and Wendy calmed down after a moment of thought. (This is a good thing but it is completely random. So just let it go along with the luck. If something good comes out that is good if not that is also fine too.)
"Tring
Host you can sign in at the Lark mansion. Do you wish to sign in?"
Wendy nodded her head and thought in her heart (Sign in).
"Tring
Congratulations host, you have received 10 gold coins."
The currency of this world is divided into three types of coins gold, silver and bronze. One gold coin is equal to 100 silver coins and one silver coin is equal to 100 bronze coins. 2 bronze coins can give you a bun.
The amount she received has made Wendy stunned for a moment. But it is within the acceptable range. After all they are in the marquis mansion of a wealthy Lark family. This amount of money is normal. She can use it as funds later.
But for now she doesn't want to take this money out and use it because it would cause her trouble for her. After all gold coins are really valuable and only the rich has the gold coins. It can be considered as a small fortune that can buy you a small shop easily.
"Tring
Does host want to complete the daily sign in?"
Wendy nodded her head and thought in her heart (Sign in) with some anticipation.
"Tring
Congratulations host, you have received a pack of steamed buns (4 Buns)."
Wendy was stunned and signed. This is equal to gaining 8 bronze coins. A steamed bun is enough for a person to eat as breakfast and two steamed buns is enough to replace the lunch. These are simple steamed buns but not the meat or other filling steamed buns.
Still something is better than nothing. She can take it and eat is hot later. At least they would be fresh in the future when taken out and ready to eat compared to the food they provide when they are being exiled.
There is no change in the expression on her face and she continued to eat the chicken wing on her hand while looking at the show that is happening in front of her eyes. She has already performed well and got all the things she wanted.
There is no need to perform more and just have to watch the show and go along with the flow without making much scene to get herself damned again by superficial things. Her brother is stupid and is also watching the show with her.
Chief Steward's eyes flickered for a while and then he turned and walked towards Daniel walker, taking out a list, "Sir Walker, this is the list of betrothal gifts from our house. It does not belong to the Lark family's property. Please be lenient and return it to us."
According to the procedure, the engagement is made two months before the wedding, and the betrothal gifts are then sent to the bride's home. At that time, part of the betrothal gift will become dowry and be brought along with the bride.
Just half a month ago, Marquis Devonshire sent over 68 loads of betrothal gifts, all of which were good things. The ultimate purpose of this trip is to recover these betrothal gifts.
Madam Lark turned her head sharply and roared angrily, "No, no, this is already our Lark family's property. Even if it is confiscated, it will go into the national treasury." She would rather destroy it than let the Devonshire Marquis Mansion get a good deal.
They could obviously rescue Jessica Lark, and it was both reasonable and moral! Chief Steward looked at her with disdain, with anger in his eyes. She was so tactless and didn't even look at the current situation of the Lark family.
"Sir Walker, the second queen said a few days ago that she admires your abilities and believes that you will have a brighter future." The implication in his words was too obvious. Madam Lark was furious.
These despicable people, "Master Walker, this is against the rules." Both sides argued for their own reasons and refused to give in to each other, and were about to fight. Daniel walker's expression remained unchanged, but suddenly, his eyes swept around the room.
Finally, I found the person in the most inconspicuous corner. "Miss Wendy Lark, what are you doing?" Everyone looked in the direction he was looking and were stunned. (Wow, Wendy Lark was actually holding a big chicken leg and chewing it, and she was enjoying it.)
