1127 Double standards
"Is there still too much time?"
"Yes, it will take at least fifteen days for the army of Sicily to reach our sphere of influence."
"Then try it now, and the others get ready to enter the Void Star Boundary."
Three days later, Neverwinter.
Approaching autumn, Barbara was teaching her four-year-old son magic, but it seemed that the boy had no talent for magic, and he couldn't even use the most basic mage's hands.
The little boy was sweating profusely, but he just couldn't feel the warm breath that his mother said.
Kyle sat aside and watched for a while, and said with a smile: "Forget it, this kid is with me, he is a good material for learning swords, so don't toss him." ”
"But you can use some magic, too." Barbara thought for a moment, gave up, and sat down beside her husband, "It's much more powerful than my fire magic. ”
The little boy was liberated, cheered, and ran to the side of the grass to roll and play.
Kyle looked at his eldest son dotingly and smiled, "I'm bloodline magic, and it won't show up until a certain age and strength, so there's no need to rush." He continued my bloodline more, as long as he cultivated it well, he should be better than me in the future. ”
Barbara seemed to fantasize about that day, and then smiled: "Well, he must be better than you in the future." ”
Kyle laughed. Parents are never afraid of their children surpassing them.
There is a rare warmth between husband and wife, and Barbara is about to make intimacy with her man, but she sees a blue transparent bird suddenly flying in the air.
Magical teleportation?
The bluebird circled in the air before landing on Barbara's hand.
After reading it, Barbara looked at Kyle.
"What's wrong?" Kyle asked, somewhat curious.
"My teacher wants me to beg you to get out of this, so that the Fortune God Cult doesn't go against them." Barbara looked at Kyle with a hint of pleading in her eyes.
Kyle was silent for a moment, then said, "We'd better leave this matter alone. ”
Actually, Kyle doesn't like the Red-Magic Tower at all, but this is his wife's 'teacher', and he has no choice but to pretend not to hate it. He had learned about the cause of the conflict between the two, and he felt that it was 100% the fault of the Red-Magic Tower.
Even if his teacher immediately wiped out the Red Magic Tower, it would be reasonable.
Now the Red-Magic Tower actually wants to ask him to take the initiative to make the teacher regress.
What is the rationale for this?
How big are their faces?
If it was Kyle in the past, who thought that the benevolent were invincible, and thought that the world should try not to conflict, and that it was better to be peaceful, most of them would have intended to help as a lobbyist. But now Kyle's view of right and wrong is clearer, and he feels that the teacher's words are right.
If the wrongdoer can get the matter to light up with just a gentle apology, then who wants to be an honest person and a good person in the future?
"But it was my teacher's request, and he used to be really nice to me. I can't watch him get killed by Beta's dog. ”
"Rearden is a second-class knight like you, he's not a dog, you're scolding yourself too." Kyle was a little angry, but when he saw his son happily playing on the grass in the distance, he had to keep his voice down: "Barbara, we really can't take care of this." Our position is delicate. ”
Barbara stood up suddenly: "You know the teacher who is biased towards you, respect him." Isn't my teacher worthy of my respect? What would happen to you if this happened to your teacher? ”
Kyle felt a headache: "But it's really the Red - Magic Tower made the mistake first. ”
"Aren't they trying to apologize now? Why can't we just give them a chance, do we have to kill them all? ”
Barbara's voice grew louder, her chest rising and falling rapidly with anger.
The little boy in the distance was startled, a little surprised, and a little frightened to look at his parents.
Kyle shook his head, "Barbara, I really can't promise you this." The teacher was harmed, I didn't go to join the expedition of Reilden to help, it was already for your sake, and let me be a lobbyist, I don't have that face, and I don't have that qualification. ”
After speaking, Kyle went back upstairs.
Barbara sat on a stone chair, distracted.
She didn't want to quarrel with her husband, but she really didn't like Beta as a person.
Now, as soon as she heard the name, she couldn't help but think back to a few years ago, when Beta cut her mother's clothes with a long sword in front of their father and daughter, insulted her, and forced her father to sign a contract with the Knights of the Round Table.
That kind of humiliation, after a few years, she can't let go.
If she could, she would never mention Beta's name in front of her husband, because it was a thorn in her heart and a source of quarrel between them.
The two of them are very affectionate, and most of the quarrels they have been over this name.
Beta had insulted their family, and now she had come to target her 'teacher', which made her feel that this person was even more annoying and disgusting.
Of course, when Beta occasionally comes here as a guest, she is friendly and polite. It's etiquette, it's not about mood.
His teacher must be saved, but what should he say about Kyle?
Seduction tactics?
Still crying, making trouble, and hanging yourself.
Barbara felt she had to think about it.
And just when she was dizzy and about to go back to the building, she heard the sound of a carriage at the door outside the courtroom. At this time, there are still guests coming to the door?
She followed the sound and found that the person who got out of the carriage was actually her mother, whom she hadn't seen for more than half a year.
"Mother." Barbara ran over.
And the little boy, who was still playing on the grass, saw Sophia and shouted: "Grandma, and trot over." ”
Sophia happily hugged her daughter and grandson, and then walked inside with a salute and said, "I'm going to stay here for about three months, welcome?" ”
"What is welcome or not, this is our home." Barbara said in disgust, "Didn't you help out in Bluewater?" How do you have time to come back! ”
"Things over there are free." Sophia hugged her grandson and kissed the child's smooth face: "Besides, I miss our grandson too." ”
The little boy laughed.
Then Kyle ran out to greet his mother-in-law.
In the evening, Sophia went back to her room to rest, and was about to turn off the lights, when there was a knock on the door, Sophia opened the door and saw her daughter wearing pajamas, holding a pillow, and said with a smile: "What, I have been someone else's mother, and I want to review the feeling of childhood with my mother?" ”
"yes." Barbara laughed, "Not welcome? ”
"Come in."
The door was closed, and the mother and daughter fell asleep side by side, whispering, from the interesting stories and troubles of childhood, both of them would laugh.
Seeing that her daughter was a little sleepy-eyed, Sophia asked, "Do you want to talk to me about something?" ”
Barbara was stunned for a moment: "Mother, how do you know." ”
"You are the daughter I gave birth to and raised by me, what are you thinking, I don't know?" Sophia laughed, "Could it be that I got into an argument with Kyle?" ”
Although these two young people covered it up very well, Sophia, as a person who came over, Jiang was still old and spicy, and found that the emotions of these two young people were a little wrong.
Barbara is silent for a moment, then tells her about her argument with Kyle that afternoon.
After listening, Sophia thought for a while and said, "Actually, there is nothing wrong with either of you. He doesn't help his teacher because he respects you, and you just want to save your teacher. I think it's better for you to ignore this matter. ”
"Even my mother thinks so?" Barbara sighed, "But I really want to help my teacher." ”
"Kyle is not willing to offend his teacher for you, his teacher is just as important to him as you are. It's his loved ones. Sophia comforted: "Actually, you can think like this, it's a good thing to have such a loving husband, right?" ”
"How can a teacher compare to his wife." Barbara was a little dissatisfied.
"Since you said so, your teacher naturally can't compare to your husband." Sophia couldn't cry or laugh: "Your double standard is quite serious." ”
Barbara was so choked by her mother's words that she was almost speechless.
After a while, she said helplessly: "How do I feel that Mother, you are very much towards Beta." ”
"I'm just telling the truth." Sophia smiled calmly: "Besides, Beta's power is very strong, what if Kyle's lobbying in the past was unsuccessful, but made him unhappy and angered Beta?" ”
"If we are angry, we are afraid of him?"
"Are you really not afraid?" Sophia shuddered very skillfully and said, "Anyway, I don't really want to have anything to do with him anymore." ”
Barbara showed a curious expression: "Could it be that last time he hired your mother with a lot of money, he really did something ...... to you?"
"Not really, we don't have any physical-physical relationship." Sophia said seriously: "I just think that person is not the object that our family can provoke. ”
This is indeed true, so Sophia's words are firm and sincere.
"Is that person not functional?"
Barbara shouted and said in disbelief: "Mother, you are so beautiful and have such a good body, and you didn't even do it?" I thought he had already played you over and over during that time. I'm even afraid you'll bring a brother or sister back. And then you told me that nothing happened? ”
Sophia smiled bitterly: "Fortunately, he didn't do that, and now I suddenly feel that I sold myself for a few thousand gold coins, which is very cheap." ”
"Father probably wouldn't think so." Barbara sighed, "Actually, he has always been very proud when you left Beta and Beta. ”
As long as you send your wife out and play with others for a month or two, you can get the substantial benefits of thousands of gold coins, which any normal nobleman will feel that it is a very expansive business.
Anyway, the wife can come back.
"Since you all think Kyle can't go, I'll do it myself." Barbara said, "Hopefully he'll sell me face for Kyle's sake." ”
"Are you really going?"
Barbara nodded firmly.
Sophia sighed: "Then when I have time, I'll go with you, at least I can still say a few words in front of him." ”
