The faux-posh act isn't what he expected, but he's more than happy to play along for her. He follows her to his seat, but instead of sitting, he bows low and offers up the bag in his hands. "I thought I had better not come empty handed to such a generous invitation. A gift, for you, my dear."
By 'a gift' he means 'a gift of many things'. He did not forget the conversation they had about her lack of jumpers or good boots. With Winter fast approaching it has been at the forefront of his thoughts. Within the canvas bag is a pair of wellington boots, a warm blanket, a couple of pillows, and a selection of clothes that include thick jumpers (one with a crocodile design), stockings, and durable trousers. Even with the help he enlisted, they might not be perfectly sized or to her taste, but he did his best and he can only hope she likes them. He watches her with eyes a little wide, and bated breath.
