Chapter 55: Immorality
In the morning, the fog of the Manor de Ninevi had just lifted, the sun was showing half of its red fluttering face from the depths of the valley, and the kingfishers were singing merrily in the tall and dense trees, and a new day had dawned in Provence. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Wesley hurried out of the castle, uninterested in admiring the beauty around him, and was about to open the door and get into the car to leave Ninevier Manor, when he saw a crow standing on the hood.
"You've been arguing all night, what are you doing here?" Wesley waved his hand to chase the crow away.
"Don't be angry, Count, it's they who spoil your good deeds, but it's not me, hehehehe......" The crow chuckled obscenely twice with a hoarse neck.
"You're your uncle's old crow?!" Wesley, who hadn't slept well all night, was still a little dazed, but he could see clearly that the crow had a tuft of white hair on its head.
This was brought back by my uncle when he was hunting in the mountains and forests, and with a little training, he turned out to be more fluent than starling.
"Earl, you are so bright-eyed! Monsieur Dior asked you to come over at once! ”
"I'm about to go over there too...... Wesley said, getting into the car, closing the door, and starting the engine.
The crow fluttered its wings and flew in the direction of Monsieur Theor's manor.
"Oh, dear nephew, how about having breakfast together?"
Wesley found his uncle in the dining room, and he sat down next to him.
"No, no, uncle, I'm not in the mood to eat anything......"
"What's wrong with you? Wasn't it okay the other day?! Monsieur Theo wiped his mouth and examined him with those gray-blue eyes.
"You didn't sleep well?" Indeed, Wesley's eyes were bloodshot.
"Uncle, I didn't get the dragon!" Wesley bowed his head in frustration.
"Oh, my nephew, didn't you say yesterday that Feng Wanying came back from China with Long Po?"
"That's what she told me on the phone, so I only went to Ninevie Manor last night, but she's been going around the bend with me, and she just won't take out the dragon!"
"Can't you be tougher, my Count? You have to show the true colors of your ancestors! ”
"I ......"
"It's love that makes you too soft-hearted, right? I warned you not to think too much about that beautiful Chinese woman! Otherwise, you'll ruin the plans of the Jean Ninevie family! ”
Wesley didn't dare to look his uncle in the eye anymore, but just looked at a certain place at the table: "Uncle, she is pregnant, and she is the blood of the Jean Ninevie family!" ”
"You've known that for a long time, haven't you? But you've been hiding it from me! Monsieur Theor angrily put down his knife and fork.
"Uncle, don't be angry! I just haven't figured out how to tell you! ”
"Uh-huh, it's a big deal! Your father died early, and it was I who single-handedly pulled you up, and I didn't expect your wings to be stiff today! ”
The more Mr. Dio spoke, the more angry he became, and he stood up.
Seeing this, Wesley also stood up: "Uncle, don't be angry first, you listen to my explanation!" At that time, I just wanted to control Feng Wanying to make her pregnant with a child, I originally wanted to tell you after I got Long Po, but I didn't expect that she didn't mean to hand over Long Po! ”
Wesley hurriedly explained.
"Well, then Feng Wanying is not an easy woman to deal with......" Mr. Theo slowly circled around the dining room with his hands behind his back.
"And what are you going to do now?"
"I'm going to marry her!"
"My dear nephew, this is just your simple wishful thinking, isn't it? Did she agree to marry you? ”
"She didn't say yes, she didn't say no, but she showed a strong maternal instinct, she wanted to give the dragon to the child in her womb, and she wanted the child to rule over the Jean Ninivi family, the Vulture family, and the Ma family!"
"Well, this woman's ambition is not small! Well, good things are grinding, and maybe that's not a bad thing! After all, the Jean Ninevi family has a new heir, and in any case this is something to celebrate! ”
Monsieur Theo picked up the rattle on the side of the table and shook it, and in a moment the butler came in and stood beside him.
"Take out that good bottle of wine from Napoleon's time, and I'm going to have two drinks with Monsieur Count!"
"Yes, sir!"
The butler went out and came back quickly, with a silver tray in his hand, with a bottle of red wine and two sparkling glasses.
"One cup per person, order until you go!"
The butler poured two glasses of wine steadily, no more than a penny and no less than a penny.
Monsieur Theo gestured slightly, and the butler went out.
"Here, a toast to the new heir of the family!" Monsieur Theor raised his glass.
Wesley also hurriedly stood up and raised his glass: "Cheers to the heir given by God!" ”
A good glass of wine was served, and the fruity aroma of aged grapes washed Wesley's empty stomach.
He lowered his glass, "But uncle, I want to take her out of Ninevi Manor, that old woman wanted to kill her last night!" ”
"Well, I already know, the crow has already brought the news, so where do you want to take her?"
"I want to take her to my red estate, but she doesn't agree, she wants to go back to Paris!"
"Well, this clever woman, she is afraid that she will not be able to hand over Longpo on your territory, and she will be free when she arrives in Paris!"
"Then should I take her to Paris?"
"Let's take her to Paris first, if the old vulture on the top of the mountain knows that Feng Wanying has Long Po in his hand, once he and the old woman join forces, it will be difficult to deal with, it is good to avoid the limelight, the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop!"
Mr. Dio sat down as he spoke, and he leaned over to Wesley and lowered his voice and said, "Dear nephew, have you taken those pills I gave you?" ”
"This ...... Uncle, can you eat that? I want to vomit when I smell that weird smell! Sorry, uncle, forgive me for telling the truth! ”
"Do you still have doubts about your uncle? Ever since my father and brother died, I have been working on this kind of research, and those pills I gave you are the result of my uncle's decades of research! ”
"But uncle, how can a man decide his own life and death? Their untimely death was an accident! If you can live forever after eating these pills, those emperors in China would have lived long ago! ”
"No, no, my dear nephew, though you are full of poetry, you are too pedantic! You didn't understand my intentions, you come with me......"
Monsieur Theo led Wesley to the dressing room to change into breeches and riding boots, and when he went out, he did not forget to put on a beautiful black velvet cape.
"Uncle, you are so handsome!" Wesley didn't forget to compliment.
At the gate of the manor, the attendant had brought two horses with shiny coats, one as red as fire and the other as black as charcoal, and the manes and tails of the two horses had been carefully combed, and they were playing small curls with great vigour.
Monsieur Theo mounted the flaming horse, and he flung his whip into the air, and the whip resounded with a "sparse ......," and the horse at the command began to run along.
Wesley's oily black horse followed.
