Chapter 17: The Best Mom
Meron came to Fort Dubai for a purpose, and of course there was an element of coming back to see it.
When I left, I was basically 'stupid', and now it's as good as ever, not to mention that it's better than before, so I naturally want to come back and let everyone see, and those people who care about themselves in the province are worried and sad.
Whether it's for everyone's peace of mind or for other purposes, Eliza is the most crucial one.
It can't be said that Meron is using Eliza, which means the same as asking relatives for help.
Eliza can be the mistress of the castle, and she can also make Bent obedient, and in this world where men can have three wives and four concubines, she will not recruit new love, relying not only on beauty, but also on close thinking and demonic wisdom.
From the moment Meron entered the castle, Eliza felt the change in Meron, and now she has heard about the difficulties, and she has already guessed a rough idea.
Eliza looked at Meron with a faint smile on her lips, as if a mother had seen through her child's thoughts.
This look made Meron a little embarrassed, if the original Meron could still be at ease, but now......
However, I could only find Eliza for this matter, and after organizing the language, Meron said stubbornly: "Eliza, you also know that my territory is very poor, sparsely populated, and there is a shortage of other things. ”
Eliza nodded slightly, she knew in her heart that Meron's territory was the largest viscounty territory in the entire Count of Bante's jurisdiction, and it was also the poorest one.
Eliza didn't give Bent a lot of pillow wind before deciding on the territory, if a 'fool' occupies a rich territory, it will definitely attract the prying eyes of others, Eliza and Bant were fine when they were there, what about a hundred years after the two of them?
If Yalina is capable enough to expand her territory, the huge no-man's land behind her will be where she comes in.
There was no owner in that no-man's land, and no one knew where his margin was.
In this world, no matter how small your title is, as long as you can keep it, whoever opens it up will be theirs.
Eliza thought twice before making such a decision, which was considered well-intentioned.
"A few days ago, Edinburgh was attacked by black wolves, and the castle lost a lot of people, and Kana I brought with me was one of the orphans left behind by that disaster." After Meron spoke, the embarrassment disappeared a lot, and he continued.
Hearing that there was a sneak attack by the black wolves, Eliza was shocked: "Oh, poor child, may Lady Luck always bless you, your territory and your people!" ”
"I think so. However, in order to prevent this tragedy from happening again, I want to strengthen the defense capabilities of the territory, but what is most lacking right now is people and weapons. I'll make weapons, but I don't have the materials......" Meron shrugged helplessly.
When it came to business, Eliza also became serious, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she thought for a while before she spoke: "People and weapons are the most scarce in every territory, and I can't guarantee that I can convince Lord Earl. ”
The weapons are a little better, people are the most nervous kind, there is no one.
This can be seen from Meron's ascension to the viscount and the fact that Bant only gave a nine-man escort.
When someone else mentions this kind of topic, Eliza doesn't have to think about it, and directly refuses instead of Bent, which is equivalent to cutting her own flesh, or the kind that she doesn't necessarily have if she wants to cut it.
"Well, I know, both of these are strategic goods. To be honest, I didn't have much hope for personnel, but I wanted Eliza to help me with weapons. Of course, I don't want finished weapons, just metal, and I exchange them for the prey I brought. ”
There's no need to hide it with Eliza, Meron has paid the truth.
Eliza stretched out her delicate fingers, pretended to be vicious, poked Meron's head, and scolded with a smile: "You little devil won't let me worry about it, and give me all the problems." The Earl will return to the castle tomorrow evening, and I will do my best to help you. ”
Hearing this, Meron breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Eliza had already agreed, and she was really a superb mother, and now the key was the question of how much she could change.
"Thank you! Eliza. ”
Meron thanked him earnestly.
In addition to thanking Eliza for her help, this thank you also thanked her for taking care of the original Meron.
A little mom can respond to his needs and think about him so much......
Meron has a hunch that on the road to his rise, the two women, Eliza and Yalina, definitely occupy a very important position.
Eliza had the impression that Meron was a child who didn't grow up, and it was the first time she had heard Meron say thank you to someone, which made Eliza a little stunned.
After looking at Meron seriously, Eliza only felt that the person in front of her was so familiar and unfamiliar, and sighed after a long time: "It seems that little Meron has really grown up!" ”
After talking to Eliza for a long time, Meron returned to his residence, recalling Eliza's advice, Meron had the illusion that the original Meron was Eliza's own and that Bent belonged to his stepfather.
The rest of the conversation was basically Eliza teaching Meron what to say when she saw Bent tomorrow.
"Have you talked to Madame?" Yalina greeted her and asked softly, interrupting Meron's thoughts.
With a woman's intuition, she knew that Eliza had a lot to say to Meron, so Eliza made an excuse to leave early after dinner.
"Well, Eliza is willing to help, it depends on how much the Earl is willing to give tomorrow." Nodding, Meron smiled.
For this cheap father, the impact on Meron is indeed not much, otherwise he would not have looked for Eliza instead of Bant first if there was something.
Knowing that Eliza was willing to help, Yalina was also a little excited: "That's really great, even if the Earl is reluctant, for the sake of the lady's face, he will allocate some resources to us." ”
Of course, Yalina was also a little surprised, after all, she also knew the purpose of coming here.
Whether it's metal or population, it's not an ordinary thing, this Eliza is willing to help, it seems that the relationship between Eliza and Meron is not as simple as imagined.
For a moment, countless thoughts popped through Yalina's mind, and her eyes became more and more strange when she looked at Meron.
Although I don't know what this girl thinks, I know that this stupid girl's mind is not pure when I look at that look.
Meron didn't break it, and said casually: "Although Eliza is not much older than me, I was brought up by her." Maybe because she didn't have children herself, she loved me more and more, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was doting. ”
Seeing that Yalina still had a puzzled look, Meron spoke again: "My eldest brother is about the same age as Eliza, and for such a young mother, he only has respect for his elders, that's all.
My sister Ellie and Eliza have a good relationship, they are like sisters, but Ellie is already married, you know. ”
Hearing this, Yalina's eyes became normal.
If this is the case, it is not incomprehensible that Eliza's little mother has such a good relationship with Meron.
As an earl, Bante naturally has a lot to do, and Merlon's eldest brother, Koda Dubai, as the heir to the earl, must always be by Bent's side.
After Elle got married, there were only Eliza and Meron brought up by her in the entire Dubai Castle......
