"However, I refused the servant's request, knowing that if I returned to that house, I would be placed under house arrest and not released until I was married. I finally found freedom, how can I give it up so easily? The old gentleman shook his head and said, "What's more, I already had a place in my heart at that time." So I told him that it was fine for him to go back and tell his parents that it was fine and that he would go back to visit them when he settled outside. ”

"You also said that at that time, the group of people wanted to force you to go back, and you actually put a knife on your neck on the spot. I was so scared that I didn't know what to say. ”

The old woman blamed the old gentleman and patted him on the arm.

"For you, even if it's a matter of giving your life...... If I had to choose one more time now, I would still do it. The old gentleman looked back at her affectionately, "What's more, if I hadn't done that at the time, I wouldn't have been able to break the deadlock." ”

"Hmm...... What a thrilling experience...... So is this how the two are together? ”

Nero said with some emotion.

"Hmph, I thought that this man was willing to give up his life for me, and he wouldn't be tired of telling stories and getting along, so I gave him a chance."

The old woman snorted.

"After that, in order not to disturb the people in the alley, we moved to the current city and opened the current clothing store." The old gentleman continued, "Later we had a son and a daughter. My son was given to the family by me to be trained as a new heir, and my daughter grew up peacefully and married the boy she liked. Hmph, my kid is indeed that material, he has just come of age to rule the whole clan, and now he has expanded his power to our city to provide us with protection. Now my son and daughter come to visit whenever they have time, and we keep this store to make friends with customers and travelers from all over the world...... Daphne and I are happy in this life, and we have no regrets. ”

"That's nice...... Your feelings are indeed the envy of ordinary people......"

After listening to the narration of the two old men, I was also deeply infected.

"Wait...... The most crucial problem has not yet been solved......" Nero suddenly interjected, "the difference between the two of them is so great in class and knowledge, is there no problem in getting along with each other in daily life?" ”

"yes...... In the beginning, we were all too naïve to think that by virtue of love, we could make up for all the discord and become one with each other. The old woman couldn't help but say, "However, it turns out that some of the deeper parts are incompatible in any way." For example, I think a vase in the room is a good decoration, but my dear thinks that it is necessary to add mural wallpaper is the basic requirement. Also, in order to save money, I try to buy groceries and cook at home, but my dear complains that there are fewer social feasts with the outside, and life is becoming more and more closed...... Because of these trivial things, we often quarrel......"

"Our first cohabitation life lasted only half a month, and it could not be continued......," said the old gentleman with a wry smile, "because of the incompatibility of the way of doing things due to class, we increased the distance between us all the time." So we decided to separate and live our own lives. ”

"That'...... You guys...... How did you reconcile......

Even Nero was worried when he heard it.

"Haha, after a few days of separation, our respective lives returned to their original rhythm, but they began to miss each other." The old gentleman smiled, "We realize that we are the only ones in our lives, and we just got along in the wrong way. So after some hesitation, we lived together again, but we made new rules—"

"—retain each other's individuality and do not interfere in each other's private affairs." The old woman smiled and took the old gentleman's words, "We will have our own independent time, for example, I will use it to arrange flowers and sew clothes, and my dear one will drink coffee and enjoy paintings." Then every night, we would get together and do something that we didn't hate for both of us. For example, go for a walk, or read a book together. ”

"So...... Is this how you have regained your lost feelings? I nodded, "How is this new life?" ”

"Very wonderful! Every day is full of brilliance, as if the goddess of luck has given me happiness. The old gentleman's face was full of heartfelt happiness.

"Yes, I love my darling more and more...... In the decades that followed, we never quarreled again, and the neighbors around us were envious of us......" The old woman also smiled.

"So, I just reminded you little girl, don't be too entangled with your lover, if you really love him." The old gentleman said, his eyes also turned to Nero, "At the beginning, Daphne and I lost our personal space because of the proximity, and we had to do everything possible to accommodate each other, so we were so tired to get along." ”

"Remember, your lover is first and foremost an individual, not a slave to your love. Only if you respect His needs from beginning to end will you be able to maintain this pure relationship for a long time. ”

"Hmm...... That's right...... Yu was taught......"

Nero suddenly showed a very abrupt expression, and nodded very solemnly.

This is one of Nero's rare strengths, although she is proud and arrogant, she is able to really listen to other people's advice and think carefully.

"Well, it's getting late, so you'd better go home quickly. Although the security is much better now, it is better not to go back too late and make the family worried. ”

The story has been told, and although the old gentleman is still unsatisfied, he still looks up at the sky and says regretfully, "If you want to come in the future, we are always welcome." ”

"Yes, a beautiful guest like this young lady is simply a living sign!" The old woman grinned, "I'll give you this dress on you!" “

"This ...... This is embarrassing, this must be a very valuable item, if you don't pay enough money, Yu will definitely not be at ease......"

"Don't worry, this dress hasn't been sold for so many years, and we don't plan to sell it......" The old woman patted Nero's slender shoulders and looked at her with satisfaction, "There is nothing more gratifying than to see this dress find its right owner in our lifetimes." If you insist on giving money, it will make our mood worse. ”

"This ...... Not good......"

Nero couldn't help but hesitate.

"Take it, Nero, it's the other party's intention after all, isn't it?"
