As the sky gradually brightened, the morning sun penetrated into the room through the window, and slowly woke up the young man lying on the bed.

At the moment when he just opened his eyes, Charles was so pierced by the sunlight that he subconsciously blocked his eyes with his hands, and his mind was empty. It wasn't until a moment later that he slowly remembered where he was.

Gradually, he gradually remembered everything that had happened last night, but as if it was just a spring dream, a "This is not true!" suddenly rose in his heart. The sense of absurdity.

However, it backfired, and soon he realized that his wish was too naïve, because the constant touch beside him told him that it was all true—Charlotte had also woken up, and then gently hugged Charles.

"Good morning, Charles." She looked at Charles a little impatiently, "You seem to be in good spirits, huh?" ”

Charles didn't know how to answer, so he continued to look at the morning sun outside the window without saying a word.

His attitude made Charlotte a little dissatisfied, and she pressed her face closer.

"What do you mean by that? How? Out of sorts? ”

Of course, he would not dare to say such a thing.

"No, no, no, how could it be?" Charles replied repeatedly, "I'm just thinking, aren't we here to do business?" Why did you ...... all of a sudden?"

"But that's not what you said last night......" Charlotte glanced at Charles, "it seems like you've been tossing for a long time?" In the middle of the night, I said I would go to bed, but you ......."

This sentence made Charles speechless for an instant. My throat was a little dry, and I just felt embarrassed.

When did Charlotte become so good? Can you say that kind of thing?

However, he swept it over from the corner of his eye. found that Charlotte's face was also a little flushed - apparently she was also very shy.

In order to win a game in a fight, she can really be open-minded...... Charles couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

Out of a youthful malice, Charles decides to strike Charlotte.

"I have a question on my mind, dear Miss Treville."

"What's the matter?"

"We don't seem to have eaten since noon yesterday." Charles said intentionally, "I only drank one bottle of wine." ”

"That's right!" Charlotte frowned, "You say that. I'm a little hungry too, shall we go eat? ”

"No, not the problem." Charles shook his head slightly, then looked at Charlotte with a slightly amused look.

"I mean, somebody must have called us to dinner last night, right? So......" he said no more.

No need for him to say. Charlotte could have guessed it – at this point, I'm afraid. The scandal between the two young people has spread throughout the villa......

Sure enough, as he expected, after thinking of this, at that moment, Charlotte's face suddenly turned red and bright, and it contrasted with the morning glow on the horizon.

Soon, however, the red glow completely dispersed.

Charlotte's eyes were full of anger and hatred at Charles. This sharp look made him unable to laugh anymore.

Worst. It's too much!

Before Charles could apologize, Charlotte suddenly stretched out her hand again. Then he slammed it on his ear.

"You...... You're disgusting, disgusting! ”

Charles didn't resist, just whispered in protest through the pain, "What does this have to do with me?" ”

Charlotte ignored his arguments and shoved him so hard that he nearly fell out of bed.

"Hurry up and get me clothes!" Charlotte commanded loudly, and then she added as if reluctantly, "Die, you bastard!" ”

I'm a victim too, okay! Charles swallowed the words in his heart, and did not dare to say anything more.

He carefully rummaged through his clothes and pants from under the bed, then slowly put them on and walked out of the bed.

Soon he walked up the stairs to the hall on the first floor, where he met the housekeeper of the manor.

When the middle-aged man saw Charles, he immediately saluted, but although his expression was very serious and respectful, he could always feel that faint smile...... It seems that as he expected, almost everyone knows the truth.

"Give me the key to Miss's bedroom, and ...... Prepare some meals, I'll take them to my room later. Charles held back the embarrassment in his heart and gave the order in a calm tone that he had forced.

"Yes." The other party bowed down in response.

Then, with the key in hand, Charles went into Charlotte's bedroom, picked up a dress from the pile of luggage she had brought with her, and then went back to the first floor, ready to take the meal from there.

"Sir......" Suddenly, the butler bowed down again, and asked Charles in a calm tone that didn't know whether the truth was true or not, "Do I need to prepare another wine for you?" Is it the kind of ...... that Miss picked out in the cellar last night? ”

Hearing this, Charles's hands shook like an electric shock, almost causing the food box to fall to the ground.

"No, no! Xie Lu Xie ......" He smiled reluctantly and politely declined the butler's proposal.

Then he immediately took these things and ran back to his room.

Charlotte was still lying on the bed, and when she saw Charles come in, she still looked at Charles angrily and took the clothes he handed over.

Charles thoughtfully turned around, and then put all those meals on the desk, listening to the constant sound of Si Si Suo Suo from behind, he couldn't help but feel a little agitated in his heart, and quickly sat down, carefully calming his mood.

After a while, Charlotte finally got dressed again, and then sat down next to Charles, and opened the food box he had brought, and both of them were already hungry, so they began to eat directly.

"It's not early, we should get over later......" Charlotte said suddenly, eating.

"Where?" Charles was a little confused for a moment, and asked rhetorically. Then he immediately reacted, "You mean you're going over there to clear the field?" ”

"Yes," Charlotte nodded. "Yesterday I gave the people over there an ultimatum that they would reply to us today whether they would move or not. If we don't want to move out, then we'll have to clear the site......"

………………

The clock is turned back to yesterday afternoon.

After riding back with Charles and having lunch, Charlotte rode with her butler and a large group of people to the farmhouse in the valley. And then. Someone informed several of the heads of the households here to hurry out and accept the summons of the owner of the manor.

A few anxious farmers came to find the so-called "owner of the manor". It turned out to be a noble lady who looked delicate and timid. After a moment of consternation, they realized that this young lady was really the eldest lady of the Duke of Treville's family.

In their initial consternation, the peasants hurriedly took off their hats and saluted Mademoiselle Duke, a kind of "Mademoiselle Duke" that could only be seen in rural life on a daily basis. A character that can only be heard of in legends and imaginations. Farmers can't help but be in awe.

Moreover, this Duchess is indeed as beautiful as all the legends.

Charlotte let them salute with some impatience, and then made a gesture for the butler to tell them what she was coming from.

And the steward, who had already hated these farmers to the core, understood the meaning of his master, and he looked at the group of farmers and shouted loudly.

"Listen, you thieves! Our lord doesn't want you to stay here anymore! Pack up and get out! ”

After hearing these words. Panic and anger crept up on the farmers' faces in an instant.

They looked at each other for a few moments, and at last a middle-aged farmer, who looked older and seemed to have a great reputation among the farmers, finally spoke. He looked at the butler. "Do you mean that the Trévilles want to get rid of us now?"

His face had the common flattering smile of the lords of a bygone era towards the lord, but there was a hint of recklessness and indomitability that had been cultivated in recent decades.

"Yes." The butler nodded arrogantly, "We've let you stay here long enough, you should thank the Duke for his kindness, and then pack up and leave here early!" ”

The middle-aged man's face instantly turned pale, and he looked at Charlotte, who was speechless next to him, with some pleading in his eyes. "Mademoiselle, is this really the Duke of Treville's decision?

Charlotte remained silent and did not give a damn about him at all.

Swallowing his saliva, the farmer spoke again, "Miss, is your family still lacking our little land?" Without us, you would still be nobles, but if you take our land, you will want our lives! The pleading on his face intensified, "I believe that you must have the kindness that does not affect your beauty, and you will not want us to ......"

"Do you have any grievances?"

Charlotte finally spoke, her voice as soft and gentle as ever.

And the smile on her face gave the farmers too many delusions of luck.

"Surely you don't want us to leave our homeland, miss......" the middle-aged man immediately pleaded, and the wrinkles on his face deepened, "It will definitely be detrimental to you and your family's benevolent ......"

"Kindness? We are never merciful to thieves. Charlotte smiled and replied, "This is our land, I just want to take it back, why do you want to use your life and the safety of your family to advise me?" What does this have to do with me? ”

The words she uttered with a smile made the farmers stunned.

In the midst of the singing of birds and flowers, this aristocratic lady who looked so beautiful as if she had come out of a painting could freeze their whole body when she spoke.

"This land belongs to the people who work on it!" Seeing that the plea was in vain, the farmer withdrew the flattering smile on his face and angrily retorted Charlotte's words. "We serve this land, we take good care of our wheat, why should we be driven away by you!"

"What qualifications do you have to talk like that to a nobleman?" Anger slowly welled up in Charlotte's heart.

"Who were the nobles at the time of Adam farming and Eve weaving?" Another farmer shouted.

After hearing this, Charlotte frowned slightly.

It was this evil lie that brought countless disasters to France, made the country unrecognizable, made the order of God almost wiped out, and made a few peasants dare to speak so loudly in front of her!

Her smile was completely frozen, and she glanced at the group of farmers, and the fierceness in her eyes made them speechless.

"I don't want to waste any more words with you," she said word for word, "we have long expected that you thieves will not be obedient!" I've brought someone here, and I'll be able to burn your nest to the ground at any time!" Either you promise me now, and then get out of my farm at once, so that I may have mercy on you and let you take some of your belongings with you; Or, you'll just wait for someone to get you all away, and you'll get nothing but ashes! Take your pick! ”

"Now it's a republic, we're equal! We have the ballot now, too! The middle-aged farmer replied to her loudly, "If you dare to come, you can come!" We'll make you look good! ”

"Ballots? Do you think you have an amulet with that? Tell you, no one can save you now! Hearing this, Charlotte scoffed, then raised her horsewhip and pointed to the farmers in front of her, "Listen to me, you mobs, you thieves!" The time when France allowed you scoundrels to run wild is over! If I see you here tomorrow, you can wait to see it! ”

…………

In this way, after the most important ultimatum was issued, Charlotte returned to the villa in a good mood, and then continued to reverie the future of her and her lover's country life with love. (To be continued......)

PS: It seems that many people are not very dissatisfied with Charles and Sister Xia for the first time, so do you want me to write an extra story in the future, just write about the youthful past of their youth, the first time of the time-traveler pseudo-boy Charles and the aristocratic real girl Charlotte......
