234 Offensive again!
"Of course, my husband, he was supposed to be there. "Lady Lofetris said with no smile on her face, and said with a dry face. Then he beckoned to the paper man maid, "Master, where did he go?" He should have known that the feast was made today. ”
The card-man maid leaned over and said, "The lord went to Count Brick's house earlier, and he hasn't come back yet. ”
"Yes......" said Madame Flofetris, frowning, shaking the folding fan in her hand, "it seems that my husband, who is like a kite without a string, is again absent from this important moment, as always, and he has never taken up his responsibilities. ”
"I see." Luo Yu smiled meaningfully, "I thought Madame had forgotten about Sir and even forgot to let someone notify Sir to come to the banquet!" ”
"Okay, don't dwell on my husband's affairs anymore, today is a happy day, and I don't want to mention this irresponsible person." Madame Lofetris snapped her folding fan and said with a gloomy face, "Please start sharing your story, guests from afar!" ”
"Of course, that's exactly what I'm going to do, ma'am." Luo Yu opened his mouth to tell it, and it quickly attracted everyone's attention.
"Once upon a time, in a faraway land." As always, in the opening remarks, Luo Yu began the final offensive, "In a small distant territory, there lived a small nobleman, with two husband and wife, as well as two girls and a boy, such a family of five. ”
Hearing Luoyu say this, Agni secretly glanced at Madame Lofetris's face, and there was no expression on the other party's gloomy face, and his body sat motionless on the chair, not showing the slightest wavering.
Now that Agni knows what Falling Rain is doing, she unearths the secrets of Lady Lofetrith's heart and finds the one that most likely will shake her up in order to break her defenses. It's a story from a long, long time ago, but it's actually Lady Lofetris herself!
There's no way she didn't know that.
Maybe she didn't think that Falling Rain could master her real weaknesses, or maybe she still felt invulnerable inside, in short, Lady Lofetrith listened to Falling Rain tell her own story with a blank face.
"My wife comes from a big aristocratic family, and she was originally very dissatisfied with this kind of poor rural life, but after living for more than ten years, she got used to all this."
"The little fiefdom was not too rich, but it was definitely not poor either, and they lived a decent and happy life, and even they hired nineteen servants and had everything that a noble life should have."
The flames, who had been observing Lady Lofetrith, suddenly noticed that the other party trembled imperceptibly.
"The three children are as lovely as angels, they are the hearts of the husband and wife, both of them love the three lovely children very much, and for the wife, the three children are her own spiritual pillars, she poured everything into the children, for them and even forced the husband who was not rich to take out the money and food reserves to let the three children enjoy the best living environment and the best family education, and even kept overdrawing the tax burden of the small territory, which caused the dissatisfaction of the villagers in the territory."
"However, the wife didn't care about all this, for her, these three lovely children are all her everything, and her future is even more important than her own life."
Falling Rain calmly told the story, but Lady Lofetrith suddenly became uneasy, she suddenly interrupted Falling Rain's narration, and then said to the paper man maid, "Are the young ladies and young masters ready?" Let them hurry up and don't miss out on the wonderful stories of the guests! ”
"Madam, the young lady and the young master have finished changing their clothes and are coming to the courtyard." Said the cardinal maid.
Madame Lofetris nodded, looked in the direction of the castle's passage to the courtyard, and smiled stiffly at the falling rain, "Dear guest, your story reminds me of the children, and I can't wait to see them, sorry to interrupt yours." ”
Luo Yu didn't care about this: "Of course, I also want to meet Madame's three children, they must be as lovely as angels like the children in the story." ”
Lady Lofetrith said, "Dear guest, I will not let you down. Now, please continue your story! ”
Luo Yu smiled meaningfully and continued: "The days should have gone on peacefully, but a sudden natural disaster destroyed all this. ”
"The cold that no one had expected was coming, the chill hit in September, and in October it began to snow, and the crops in this small territory were lost. This is not only the poor countryside that has been affected, but the entire land, and the small territories beneath the snow-capped mountains have nowhere to escape. ”
"The problem of insufficient food storage was exposed, the existing food was not enough to help the lords survive this long cold winter that they had never seen before, and with the help of his wife, the noble family did not provide even a grain of rice to the lords, and in the starvation and cold, the lords died of despair."
"The long winter has finally passed, and the snow is beginning to melt, but the territory is not what it once was. A thick black fog enveloped the entire territory, and there was no village to be seen from the people's villages, nor the fields that had once been, and a little further out was a thick darkness, and no one knew what was going on. ”
The husband directed the servants to reclaim the land of the manor, and only a small time the dusk sun shone on the manor's land, and the crops produced were very small, if not completely out of food, but it was difficult to feed the noble family and nineteen servants. So the fear of famine still hung over the estate. ”
Everyone knew that if this continued, everyone would starve to death here, so the husband began to lead the servants into the black fog, trying to find a way out of this dead place. However, each expedition was in vain, and instead consumed the already small amount of food. ”
"Finally, one day, the manor ran out of food, the new crops did not ripen, the stock was exhausted, and everyone fell into despair."
The next day, her husband disappeared. After the initial loss of the backbone, everyone panicked, and the wife begged the servants to enter the black fog to find her husband's traces, which she believed had swallowed her husband. At first the servants complied with her orders, but soon the servants began to refuse to obey her orders when they realized that their wife was no longer a high mistress but a poor widow who had lost their support. ”
