The Adventure of the Copper Beeches
Capítulo 12, Página 6
"And
my
duties,
sir?
I
would
like
to
know
what
they
would
be."
"One
child—a
delightful
little
boy,
just
six
years
old.
Oh,
you
should
see
him
killing
cockroaches
with
a
slipper!
Smack!
smack!
smack!
Three
gone
before
you
can
blink!"
He
leaned
back
and
laughed
heartily.
"I
was
a
bit
surprised
by
the
child's
unusual
hobby,
but
the
father's
laughter
made
me
think
he
might
be
joking."
"So
my
only
duties,"
I
asked,
"are
to
care
for
a
single
child?"
"No,
no,
not
only
that,
my
dear
young
lady,"
he
said.
"You
would
also
follow
any
small
requests
my
wife
might
have,
as
long
as
they
are
appropriate
for
a
lady.
You
see
no
problem
with
that,
do
you?"
"I
would
be
happy
to
be
helpful."
"Exactly.
For
example,
in
terms
of
clothing.
We
are
particular
people,
you
know—particular
but
kind-hearted.
If
we
asked
you
to
wear
a
dress
we
provide,
you
wouldn't
mind
our
little
preference,
right?"
"No,"
I
said,
quite
surprised
by
his
suggestion.
