Chapter 731: Market Day (Page 1/1)

The Kingdom of Sswiftland is also Merlin's mother country...... That's right, it's a trip home.

In the ancient East, there is a proverb: "Wealth does not return to the hometown, like brocade clothes at night." ”

Back then, she was thrown to Shuiyunjian Academy as a burden...... Speaking from the heart, although her childhood is a little more boring than that of a normal girl, but thinking of the old saying that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather, the life experience in Shuiyunjian Academy is okay, although there are also a lot of thrills and troubles, but it is precisely because of these that she can carry the weight of life.

According to Nissa, the current situation in the Kingdom of Sswiftland is not good, because there are some changes in the royal family, several princes are on their own, and the nobles are also divided and fighting. In Nissa's words, if you have a brain, you have to be a dog's brain. But she never mentioned the reason for going back, and Merlin didn't ask.

The Hope anchored at Port Gael, part of the Free Commonwealth and adjacent to the Kingdom of Sweivland, where the war in the neighbouring countries did not affect the freedom-minded Commonwealth.

When Merlin stepped off the springboard and put her feet on the ground, it suddenly saved her that she had entered a completely different world. The hectic docks were as noisy and crowded as Domingo, the horse-drawn carriages were still running wildly in the crowd, and the dockworkers loading and unloading bundles and barrels of cargo were also noisy, speaking loudly in a language that Merlin did not understand.

"Strange, what kind of language is this? I don't understand it at all?" Merlin was stunned.

Really, she is proficient in dozens of languages in the wizarding world since ancient times, as well as dragons, Hebrews, elves, and goblins, but what do these people say?

"Of course, it's a mainland language. ”

Nissa explained, "It's just that they have a strong accent, and if you weren't familiar with the way they speak, you might not be able to turn the corner all at once, but you will know if you listen carefully for a while." ”

As if to prove that she was not right, someone immediately spoke to her with a thick accent, and Merlin had never heard that the other party was speaking the lingua franca of the mainland.

Nissa couldn't help but laugh when she heard her words, and she agreed, "It's true that this accent is too strong, but he does speak the lingua franca of the mainland." When the people of the Free Federation speak the lingua franca of the mainland, it is like stuffing something in their noses and their tongues are curled up again, so that's how they speak...... Hey, that's a heroic Federated lieutenant. ”

"Federal lieutenant?"

Merlin laughed and said, "I thought he was a button seller!"

The lieutenant of the Federation wore a short, well-decorated tight-fitting military uniform, with a row of polished copper buttons on the placket and a dozen golden ribbons in between, and Merlin looked as if she were attending a masquerade...... If you don't consider your surroundings.

"Colby,"

Nissa spun around and shouted, "Where's the carriage?"

Colby, one of her servants, accompanied by a maid and two guards, had been standing behind them, and immediately came to the front when he heard the words.

"Madame, everything is arranged. ”

Colby raised his hand and gestured to a carriage a little farther away, which immediately drove towards this direction, "Madam, tomorrow we can leave for the Kingdom of Sweivland." ”

"I wish I could leave right away. ”

Nissa's eyes were full of anticipation: "It's still early, it's almost noon." ”

"The caravan had already set off at eight o'clock at the latest, and although there was no war in the Free Federation, it was not safe in the wilderness. ”

Colby explained: "Ma'am, the hotel we stayed in was very well equipped and the kitchen was good. ”

He paused and said, "We need to hurry up, today happens to be market day, and the road is very crowded." ”

"Market day?" Merlin asked in agreement.

Nissa clapped her hands, "In a port city the size of Gail, Market Day must be a big day, right? ”

In Merlin's eyes, the bazaar was unimaginably grand, and she never imagined that a mortal bazaar could be so large, exciting and fresh. On the grassy square in front of the Iron Anchor Hotel, it is colorful and lively.

When the carriage took Merlin and the others to the door of the hotel, Merlin begged Nissa not to rush in to see the room and eat, but to go to the square first.

"Madam, Miss Merlin, it's already noon, and it's delayed again...... I'm afraid ......" Colby hesitated.

Nissa agreed with Merlin's suggestion: "Colby, you bring your luggage to your room, don't worry about lunch, there are a lot of food on the stall." And I also want to buy some stockings for my sisters. ”

She turned to Merlin and said, "Gail's hand-knitted stockings are still very famous, and many ladies and ladies like them very much, and even sent someone to buy them. ”

"Okay,"

Colby had no choice but to agree, and he said to the two guards, "You accompany Madame and Miss Merlin, and you must not let Madame and Mademoiselle have an accident." ”

"Yes. The two guards agreed in unison.

When Nissa was on the ship, she was a textbook of aristocratic manners. But at this time, it was like a different person...... Within seconds, Merlin found herself being pulled by Nissa into a herd, and they swiftly navigated through the herd and rushed into the square.

As far as the eye can see, there are activities everywhere, men and women haggling, buying and selling, complimenting, picking, discussing...... The noise is endless. The brightly colored clothes worn by some of the young women and girls made Merlin sigh in admiration.

At the end of the day, she's also a young girl. And since she lost ten, the real life has been far away from her, and everything in front of her has evoked long-term memories in her heart, just like being held by her mother and wandering around in mediation.

The clothes on the girls were very bright and bright. As far as the eye can see, all you can see are ankles and legs wrapped in blue-yellow, red-and-white, red-yellow, blue-and-white striped stockings. Gaelic girls wore short, flat-heeled black leather shoes, no leather boots, and skirts that were four to six inches from the ankle, revealing a calf. The skirt is also chic...... The loose pleats, swaying, the color is as bright as stockings, the shirt is darker, but still showy, the sleeves are suspiciously buttoned, and there is a white corrugated linen triangle scarf around the body, which is buttoned at the front.

"Wait a minute, Merlene, I'm going to buy some stockings, and I'm going to buy one...... No, I'm going to buy a few more dresses of that kind in different colors...... And shirts and handkerchiefs, these things are so beautiful, I must buy them!" Nissa looked excited, not at all like a cultivated nobleman, and Mei Lin couldn't help but laugh when she saw it.
