Section 29 Surrender

When they heard that Count Arrod of Mecklenburg was coming, the nobles who were guests at Fort Lida ran out one after another, this is the highest level of the Wendell family, they stood on both sides of the road into the castle despite the cold, with flattering smiles on their faces, looking at these enthusiastic relatives Arold was a little confused, and Baron Wendell hurriedly took on the role of introducer.

"This is your Aunt Linda's son, Vlaar. Kim, who has a mill and several plots of self-cultivated land in the village of Rota. ”

"This is Peter. Sir Herbert, a relative of your mother's side. Baron Wendell introduced Arjord to these enthusiastic relatives, and they looked at Arrod with such enthusiasm that they took off their hats and bowed respectfully when they introduced him.

"Your Excellency Count Mecklenburg, I sincerely wish you good health and safety." The relatives bowed to Arold and said words of blessing in their mouths, which made Arold a little embarrassed, after all, he was here to attend the wedding, not to hold the wedding, and now he was surrounded by these relatives and was suspected of being noisy.

"Ha Luha, my blood relatives, let's go into the house in the cold, lo and behold, I haven't seen my mother and brother yet, and I'm already flattered by everyone's enthusiasm." Arold walked inside as he spoke, although the knights of the inner palace behind him also saw Arrod's impatience, if it was someone else who was so rude, they would have stepped forward to stop it, but these people are all relatives of Arold, and it seems that it is inappropriate to use strong methods, so they can only stand behind them and guard.

"Yes. The Earl must have been very tired from coming from afar, but I must tell you one thing, my eldest son, Yuraia, who is just twelve years old this year, has learned fencing and horseback riding in my home, and I hope that you will allow him to be your personal attendant, and it will certainly be of great help to you. ”

"What is the matter, the Earl certainly has no shortage of personal attendants, and the noble Earl has been fighting against the heretics. What is lacking must be a brave and fearless knight. My son, Sir Zachary, is a fine knight, and he fights bravely and fearlessly against his enemies, and will certainly be a good helper to the Earl. ”

"What? Your son has just completed the knight's Golden Spur, how can such a young knight with little experience become a trusted assistant to the Earl. ”

Soon the relatives were arguing around Arrod. But from their quarrels, Arold came to understand these poor relatives. It's looking for a long-term meal ticket for his son. Think about it, most of them are low-ranking nobles in decline, and they don't have much land to give to their heirs as fiefs, and most of the higher-level nobles don't need country gentry like them who have a hard time even putting together a set of armor. Without heavy equipment such as war horses and chain mail, it is difficult to get higher treatment, or meet a good feudal king.

But now the Wendell family has gone shit luck, not only the head of the Wendell family has been canonized as a baron with territory, but even the youngest son has laid down a large area of land for the Slavs, which is a great thigh that can be hugged, but these relatives of theirs are indeed distant relatives, and they got the news relatively late in the poor countryside, and when they got the news, Ron and others had been incorporated into Arrod's inner palace knight team and became knights with fiefs, of course, they didn't know that Arold implemented a salary payment policy, The land was firmly in Arrod's own hands.

But this does not affect them to take the opportunity to participate in the wedding of Yifu, come to Arrod to set close, once they can successfully attract Arold's attention, then their heirs in the second half of their lives, no, even the problem of future generations can be solved, in Arold's view, these poor relatives are like future generations, those who want their children to become civil servants or regular employees of public institutions, and Arold can't help but laugh in his heart, he also has a day to be a leader.

After the last effort to get rid of the overzealous relatives, Arold was finally able to sit down and sit down quietly with his real family, in the living room Mrs. Eva smiled and closed the door, the fireplace in the living room was blazing, Arold took off his cloak and wore only a shirt and trousers, he moved his chair closer to the fireplace, rubbed his stiff hands, and the warmth of the house.

"Arrod, I'm sorry, these relatives don't have any malicious intent, you also know that the Wendell family is not a famous family, and their lives are very hard, but after all, we are blood related families, and we try to help when we can." Baron Wendell also sat in his chair, and he said to his second son with some embarrassment.

"Well, if their heirs really have the ability, I can accept it, but that kind of gentleman disciple is honest, even if he enters my court, I am afraid that he will be eliminated in the assessment every year." Arold rubbed his hands together and leaned back comfortably in his chair, and at this time Mrs. Eva poured him a cup of hot ale, and drank the warm ale Arold was much more pleasant.

"No problem, your territory is your decision, this is a right that no one can interfere with." Baron Wendell looked at his youngest son with great satisfaction, the most promising son always had his own unique opinions, and it was foreseen that when future generations of children and grandchildren looked at the family tree, Arold's name would be very prominent.

"Mother, Ive, are they all ready?" Arold turned and leaned against the armrest of the wooden chair, and asked Lady Eva about the fact that as a man from the afterlife, he was extremely curious about medieval weddings.

"Of course, the maids are helping Josephine to put on her bridal garment, and when the time comes, Sir Evan will lead her into the prayer room, where the priest will personally officiate the wedding ceremony, and the two noble families will be connected by blood, under the blessing of God." A happy smile appeared on Lady Eva's face, and she was especially happy to see her son's wedding, and she continued, "Arold has heard that you are betrothed to Princess Josie, and if you can marry Her Highness as soon as possible, then I will be happy to die at once." ”

"Hey, Mother, why do you say such unlucky things on such a happy day." Arold coughed a few times, and he reproached Mrs. Eva and said that this medieval noblewoman, who was not his real mother, cared for him very much, and he didn't want anything to happen to Lady Eva, but a medieval wedding should be really interesting.
