Tina frowned, in fact, she had painted portraits before, and distributed them to matchmakers like leaflets. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Then the matchmaker took a stack of portraits of women and showed them to the nobles, which one he liked was the honor of the woman......

She was about to say something, when a cold voice suddenly sounded: "I don't agree. ”

Tina turned her head to see that it was Antti, and she was in a hurry, so she subconsciously pulled Ziqing's arm: "Anti, don't say that......"

Zijing reached out and gently patted the other party's hand on her arm, she understood the other party's concern. In this society, where life experience and appearance can determine one's life, the only way out for a woman is to find a good family. Parents have absolute rights to determine their future. What's more, the only reason they can stay in the Marquis of Leo Mansion now is that their aunt is the Marquise.

Tina ignored Ziqing's reassurance, but leaned over and lowered her voice a little nervously: "Anti, let's listen to Aunt Ellie's words." ”

In public, they call Elle their mother, but in private they call them "Auntie", "Aunt Elle is right, now that the Marquis of Leo has not turned his anger on us because of Leah's affairs, we should ......"

Zi Jing turned his head back to her and choked: "How about as soon as possible?" Do you want to find a good family to marry you off as soon as possible? You don't want to think about it, if Leah really wants to deal with us, if Marquis Leo really doesn't recognize our identity, do you think the husband's family will still be good to us? ”

Probably over the years, she has seen too many cases of women pinning their futures on men, and finally ending tragically, so when she heard Tina say this, she couldn't help but say her true thoughts.

Zijing probably felt that he was a little emotional just now, and it was also a little different from Antti's slightly weak personality before, so he breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Of course, it is not excluded that there are people who are really in love with us, but ...... If I want to give my life's happiness to others, I can't do it. Of course, if it was before, maybe it would have been like this, but in the past few days since I was injured, I have thought about a lot of things, I don't want to be sent to the fence like this, I want to live my own life......"

It is not unreasonable for Ziqing to say this, in the memory of the original owner, there is a girl who wants to pursue her own life and turns her back on her parents' arrangement, of course, the ending is not very wonderful.

Tina looked at Ziqing in disbelief, and didn't deliberately lower her voice: "Antti, do you know what you're talking about?" ”

Ellie's voice suddenly raised: "Huh, freedom? Your mother is dead, and if I hadn't taken you in as a mother, you would now be a beggar on the street, robbing wild dogs for food, being snatched back as slaves by those black and filthy untouchables***...... Don't talk about it, stay at home for me for the next two days, and tomorrow I'll ask Alyssa to paint your portrait. ”

After saying that, he stood up and dragged his heavy skirt away.

As soon as he walked to the door, Zi Jing suddenly shouted, "Stop-"

The two were shocked.

"Antti—" Tina subconsciously shouted when she saw that Ziqing's mood had a strange coldness.

Elle suddenly stopped, turned around, and tilted her head slightly, "Just now, you were calling me?" The tone was full of contempt, implying anger.

Zijing brushed Tina's hand away, stepped forward and stood in front of the other party, and said, "There is something that has bothered me for a long time, and I want to ask Aunt Ellie for advice. I remember you once told us that it was our mother who accidentally fell off the cliff when she went to the mountain. What I want to ask you is, how did you know that she had stumbled and fallen off a cliff instead of being pushed down? Did you see her fall with your own eyes? ”

Elle stared at Ziqing with wide eyes, her body shook slightly, and there was horror and anger in her eyes: "You... Do you know what you're talking about? ”

Tina is not stupid, she thought of something when she heard Ziqing say this, and opened her mouth in surprise to look at Ziqing and then at Elle, "Antti, what the hell is going on?" ”

Zi Jing ignored Tina's inquiry, but stared at Ellie and sneered, "Hmph, what's going on?" Aunt Ellie, do you still want to hide it?

Elle's eyes narrowed slightly, her neck was squeezed, her chin was raised, and she snorted coldly, "Hmph, hide? I never wanted to hide anything. I just didn't expect you to think of your stupid mother now. It doesn't hurt to say it, yes, I didn't try to pull her. But with or without me at the time, the result was the same. If she's still around, do you think you'll have a good life like this? You are just the lowliest slave in this family. ”

Ellie's emotions became agitated, and her chest rose and fell violently, "Even if it's you, she has tried to kill you many times, it's me, it's me who saved you from behind!" ……”

A light voice came from the sea of knowledge, "She...... Not lying. It was the Cosmic Cube that was subconsciously reminding Ziqing.

Of course, Zijing can tell if the other party is lying, but this reality makes her some... Unprepared.

I thought that Elle teamed up with Leah to kill her sister in order to get on top, but there are more details that she doesn't know, that is, Leah, who really lured Evan to the mountain and pushed her off the cliff. Then she told Elle that if she dared to speak out, she would tell her father that Elle was the murderer, but if she cooperated, then let her father marry her.

Of course, Ellie knew that Leo would definitely believe her daughter's words, and that with the rich man's wife as bait, of course she chose to hide the truth together. What she thinks is that she treats her sister's two daughters better, which can be regarded as soothing her.

Of course, she did this, and even sometimes intentionally or unintentionally wanted to "rectify" Leah, but she didn't expect Leah to spread the word about "stepmother abusing her......

"In a week's time, the Shimizu Festival will be held, and not only the lords and nobles of the city will come to the Holy Castle for a party, but also the princes of the lords from all over the country will come, and a blind date will be held there. Take your portraits, if you are favored by the prince, it will be your life's creation......" Elle felt that she was so kind, but she was misunderstood by these two white-eyed wolves, and she was very angry. Dropped this sentence and rushed away in a rage.

In fact, there is another thing she didn't say, this holy castle blind date conference only rose this year, and it was also the news from the palace, as for that Alyssa, she is also the designated painter for this portrait.

- Alyssa, a supportive witch of all kind, enslaved and banished, but fortunately taken in by a little girl under a hazel tree in her life...... (To be continued.) )
