Chapter 52: Chapter 5 (Return)
Since that day, Ah Zhai has also found a job, and his first painting was sold by the owner to the dancing gypsy girl Helena at a very low price, although Ah Zhai was originally intended to give it to her for free, but the young girl ran as light as a milk swallow, and gave the handsome Oriental boy a * kiss amid the screams, whistles, laughter and applause of the people around her, and at the same time smiled bitterly for a moment with a large handful of copper coins stuffed into his arms, Unexpectedly, he would be able to enjoy such treatment one day, and in the laughter of everyone, Ah Zhai stuffed the copper coin in the bag and grabbed Marcus and quickly fled.
After making money, Ah Zhai did not spend the copper coins as soon as possible, on the contrary, he was very reserved after paying ten copper coins to Marcas as a temporary accommodation fee for today, and used all the other money to buy drawing paper, along with the drawing board and pencils, he was credited to the owner of the shop, of course, he didn't know that this qiē was because Marcas quietly grabbed a large handful of copper coins to pay the boss for him, I don't know why Marcas felt that as long as he could make the people in front of him laugh, he would not give up even if he went to the soup.
Since that day, Ah Zhai has brought a sketchpad to the square every day to paint, he will paint some of the normals of life, and occasionally imagine that even if he can't become a famous painter in the future, at least he can provide some living materials about this era for future generations of scholars who study history, just like the famous "Qingming Riverside Picture", but unfortunately his pen power is not enough to paint such a masterpiece of the emperor, but more according to the needs of the guests to paint their portraits, unlike optimization, he paints very quickly, But thanks to the eyesight trained in several worlds, he can quickly capture the characteristics of the characters, so although he is not a god, he is quite spiritual.
In the long run, although the income for more than a month is not much, it can still have a simple balance after meeting the daily expenses of the two people. Although coarse tea and light rice, he can only rely on ordinary coarse bread to satisfy his hunger every day, and when he is thirsty, he can only drink the most ordinary boiling water to live, but Ah Zhai still feels that the current life is very happy, what he can do when he opens his eyes every day is what he wants to do, while supporting himself while fighting for his ideals, there is no need to be sad for the abrasive little goblin of love, the pain of being pierced through the chest by Rey's sword seems to have been alleviated a lot in just over a month, although the wound is still there, it still hurts to touch, but it will eventually pass.
To the joy of Ah Otaku, he got in touch with Sherlock smoothly, although now this little stupid little friend is now adopted by the little princess of the Conte family, and is watched tightly every day and can't sneak out to find him, but Ah Otaku is glad in his heart, not reuniting with Sherlock means that he doesn't have to meet that person for the time being, although it is an ostrich mentality, Sherlock didn't take the initiative to mention him, he shouldn't know.
"Hey, Jin, look what I brought." Marcus smiled and walked into the house with a small jar of pickled bayberry, this month since he met this mysterious oriental boy, he felt as if he was living in a dream, his drunken father didn't know where he was drunk and dreamed of dying recently, he didn't show up to ask him for money to beat him, he was able to help the small traders around him do some simple work to earn money, and the most important thing was that he was with Jin, this beautiful boy did not dislike him, but actively taught him to read and draw.
"What is this?" Jin Zichu turned his head and looked at the smiling blonde boy in surprise, although he has not aged for dozens of reincarnations, many times Ah Zhai feels that he is more like a quiet middle-aged man, and he returns to the surface of calm after a thousand sails, so many times he looks at the young man in front of him and does not just regard him as a companion, but also has a kind of psychology of elders looking at juniors, and there is more of a kind of tolerance and peace.
"I bought it from a merchant ship, and they all said it was dried fruit from the Orient." The blonde boy involuntarily came to Ah Zhai's side, and held a tightly wrapped jar in front of Ah Zhai like a treasure, with a pair of emerald green eyes like ignorant puppies, full of expectation and trust.
"Bayberry pickled in sugar?" Ah Zhai opened his mouth in surprise, washed the silver spoon in the cupboard with water and carefully scooped a spoonful, the originally sweet and sour bayberry had a faint salty and wet smell after drifting across the ocean, Ah Zhai understood that this thing was only afraid that most of it was inedible, but he still smacked his lips as if he had obtained a treasure, he had never been so deeply aware of his hometown for several worlds, so that he was moved to tears at the moment of saying thanks, "Thank you, Marcas." ”
"Don't cry!" Seeing the tears of the person in front of him, Marcas's heart tightened, and he hurriedly reached out to help him wipe it off, and his fingertips touched the young man's tears, as if they were burning on his heart, making him flustered.
"The moonlight shines on the ground, the shrimp boy obediently trains you to get out of bed, the flowers of your hometown bloom all over the ......wall" The sunset shines in along the stone window, gently as if his mother's hand fell on Ah Zhai, he gently hummed the tunes that many worlds had heard before, although the lyrics were not clear, but it did not prevent him from recalling his homeland, especially now when his heart was full of wounds.
"Brother, did you hear that?" If anyone sees it, they will be surprised that such a luxurious carriage can appear in such a secluded alley. The carriage was surrounded by a group of strong knights, the carriage passed by a flock of gray finches looking for food, the two sat opposite each other in the carriage, the girl who spoke was dressed in a fiery red tufty skirt, a huge bow at the waist set off her waist more and more slender and seductive, the red satin dress was inlaid with circles of white lace, in the solemnity revealed a bit of playfulness and loveliness, she stroked the docile black cat in her arms, while looking up to talk to her brother who was sitting opposite her in a white robe.
"Sophia, when did you catch this cat?" After the young man will bathe and pray, he is still a little wet black hair, wearing a white robe worn by a simple priest, the sun shines through the car window and his straight facial features are in the light of his eyes, showing an indescribable majesty and calm, he spreads a "Bible" on the table, page by page carefully, it can be seen that because of the master's love, although the long-term use of the paper has been yellowed, but it is still neat and clean, hearing his sister's words he raised his eyes slightly and lowered his head, and then opened his mouth lightly.
“…… Anyway, it's mine. "The noble Conte family, although it is a young daughter, but the privileged life and the pampering of her parents make this young girl arrogant and arrogant, the family behind her has always made her a sought-after in high society, in the face of this half-brother, although she is the eldest brother, she has never learned to back down, you must know that even the powerful father in front of her has also restrained all the sharpness, fickleness, wisdom and decisiveness, like a loving father in an ordinary family, for fear of frightening his baby, Not to mention the mother who has always loved her and held her in the palm of her hand.
“…… You should find its owner. "Everyone thinks that Ian is a lucky man, his mother is of noble birth, the sister of Pope Timothy V, because of the marriage to the next heir of the Conte family, after the marriage the two also had a sweet time, together to conceive their eldest son, but the love between two equally proud young people was finally lost to the same stubborn and unyielding character, when Ian was five years old, the strong but weak mother died, and the father soon married the daughter of the side branch of the Timothy family, The young Duchess, who was more subdued and modest, soon left her predecessor behind, but they never had a daughter, so that even though the Grand Duke of Conte did not very much like to see his eldest son, Ian was able to enjoy the education of the heir he deserved, and took over as archbishop at the age of eight with the support of his uncle. For more than ten years, compared with the children who would still show joy and anger on their faces, today's Archbishop Conti is a dignified and loving representative in the hearts of all believers, and even young and fanatical believers call him a messenger sent by God on earth.
"Brother, did you hear the song just now?" The beautiful girl is like a flower bone blooming on the branch with buds to be released, because it has not yet bloomed and has not experienced the wind and frost, so the future can be expected, the outside world is so eye-catching, she lives under the eaves of the father's shadow, curious to visit the outside world, but never thought about whether she can complete the transformation and live independently after leaving her original world.
“…… Very nice tune. "The melodious and gentle tune is not the same as the current tune, but it also has the power to infect people's hearts, the tune is soft, and the young man who is quite accomplished in music quickly judged that this is a tune with oriental characteristics, although he can't understand the lyrics, but this does not prevent him from being able to understand the nostalgia contained in the tune, which is not the same as the gypsy tune he has heard, more gentle and subtle, in fact, this tune is not a farewell to himself, after all, next month he will go to Rome to listen to the teachings of the Lord, Thinking of this, Ian couldn't help but put a cold smile on the corner of his lips, his good father was really dedicated to his son, so he didn't know how the girl in front of him would react when she knew that she would marry the Pope's seriously ill eldest son in the near future.
Speaking of which, I'm really looking forward to it!
