Chapter 84: The Family Feast (Part II)
When it comes to eating, I suddenly feel that my stomach is really a little hungry.
However, it seems that this meal is really ...... It's in the soup.
The mayor looked at the empty seat across the table, raised his hand, as if to take a picture, and stopped.
I looked at Bojie, sat there with a look of embarrassment, and when I saw that I was looking at him, I smiled awkwardly again.
"I'm really sorry, ...... Bihong" Mayor put down his hand and looked at me apologetically, "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect Iru, a disobedient child...... She, she turned out to be ...... Alas, it's all my fault, I forgot to discipline her when I was a child, so that her mother spoiled her...... It's all my fault! ”
At this point, I don't know what to do.
Say I'm not angry? How is that possible?
However, Iru has also apologized, and the mayor is also very guilty, what else can I do?
I asked Leo, "Hey, why don't you talk?" Help me come up with ideas!"
"What's the idea?" Leo said lazily, "Of course I chose to forgive her...... Could it be that you can still turn your face and yell, 'Lao Tzu won't eat it!' 'And then leave?' ”
"But what can I say but forgiveness?" I asked.
"Generally speaking, it's just leaving," Leo said, "but that's a general plot routine, if you don't want to have anything to do with their family, in addition to saying goodbye and leaving, there is also a way to play......"
The mayor still looked at me sincerely, waiting for my answer.
I was a little anxious: "Say it quickly! ”
Leo said, "Then, forgive them first, and then say that you are hungry, eat a full meal, and then leave!" ”
I was stunned for a moment: "What's the difference between this one and leaving directly?" ”
Leo said: "The difference is whether you will go hungry or not!" ”
I thought about it quickly, and said to the mayor, "That, Uncle Town, actually, I have forgiven Yilu a long time ago, and you don't have to care so much, after all, she is not yet an adult, well, this, can you eat dinner?" ”
The mayor was very relieved to hear the first half of what I said, but when he heard the last sentence, he was suddenly stunned.
"Huh?" Bojie also looked at me dumbfounded.
I looked at the table full of food, and I was getting hungrier......
"Ahh Of course, of course! The mayor immediately said, "Yilu, this child, is not bad in nature, she is spoiled, I will go back and teach her a good lesson!" You can forgive her, I'm very kind, and I'm sorry, it's because I didn't discipline her well, but you can't call it hungry, come on, come on, eat quickly! ”
As he spoke, he picked up a plate of roast meat and placed it in front of me.
When it was getting dark, I touched my well-fed stomach and walked out of the gate of the mayor's house.
Bojie sent me out, the expression on his face still apologetic, but not as heavy as before.
"I know you're still uncomfortable," Bojie said, "but now that Iru is getting stronger, Daddy really can't ...... her."
I heard the expression on Iru's bow and apology, and said, "It wasn't that serious, but now I feel like I'm the one who bullied her......"
Bojie smiled strangely: "Why do you think that?" If it were me, I would be hurt for no reason, and I would always feel unhappy in my heart......"
I said in my heart: "It was a little unhappy, but compared to Leo who couldn't get rid of it, the injury your sister caused me was really nothing......
I didn't say it, Bojie wouldn't know, and Leo wouldn't know.
"Speaking of which, it's actually my fault, it's obvious that I lost......" Bojie said.
I stopped him: "Okay, okay, that's all when I was a child, and more important things are waiting for us than this little win-loss thing!" Go back, I'll go back too. ”
"Well," said Bojie, "I'll see you tomorrow, and I'll see if I can persuade Iru again, I guess she won't listen to her father anymore." ”
I said, "Don't embarrass her. ”
Bojie nodded and went back.
Leo asked me, "Just go back to the barracks?" Don't look around? ”
I said, "What's there to see, it's not like I haven't seen it during the day." It's better to go back and train a few more times. ”
Leo said: "I also have some new training methods, such as the fighting techniques that I once talked about, which are stronger than military physical boxing, and what kind of Tai Chi Bagua Xingyi Quan and so on......
I said, "Try it, anyway, I think these training methods are getting less and less effective." ”
Leo said, "It's guaranteed to make your strength grow by leaps and bounds, and it's easy to deal with this wayward shaman." ”
"I hope so......," I said, "I don't think it's much fun to stay here, and it's important to join the Thunder City army as soon as possible." ”
Leo said, "Who told you to promise to stay and be this vice-captain?" I see that this mayor's family wants to take advantage of you, and you are still stupid to work for them! If it were me, I would have run to Thunder City a long time ago! ”
I said, "Blame them for that?" It's just that I didn't figure it out...... But now, I can't just leave Levine and Tony Sr. behind. ”
Leo said, "Hey, without me, your life process would have slowed down a lot......
I said, "Be less self-righteous! ”
Leo said: "Fortunately, I woke up in time, otherwise, you don't know how long you will be trapped here, not to mention the mayor's house, even Levine and the old beggar, they can drag you here for half a year and a year, delaying your good youth!" ”
"You're saying I shouldn't help them?" I say.
"No," Leo said, "I'm just saving you time, now, it's only a matter of time before that kid Levine becomes a furious warrior, and their lives will definitely be guaranteed in the future, you can leave here with peace of mind, go to Thunder City to find an opportunity to join the army, and complete the mission of recovering the glory of your Doon family's ancestors." ”
"But the mayor has promised me......" I said, "how can I go away as I please?" ”
Leo said angrily, "You elm head, haven't you seen it yet?" The mayor's family, even Bojie, who treats you as a brother and buddy, are playing tricks on you! ”
I was a little angry: "What nonsense are you going to talk about again!" ”
Leo said: "Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you!" You'll find out sooner or later anyway! Let's not talk about that, then, I guess, wherever you go, you're going to run into that chick......"
"Iru?" I was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "You, did you see her?" Or are you also divination? ”
Leo was a little surprised: "You have already learned divination?" Seems like it happened after I fell asleep in retreat, right? I really can't do this, it's a pity...... However, I didn't see it either, and I couldn't cover such a wide range of elemental visions. ”
"And how do you know?" I asked.
Leo said: "The general plot is like this, because of a misunderstanding, you and this rude and willful town mayor's daughter daughter formed a fate, as for later, if it weren't for me, you might have married her......"
I was stunned for a moment and said, "This, how is it possible?" I won't ...... such a girl."
Leo interrupted me: "I said, many times, the plot is to forcibly arrange two people who don't like each other together, so that it can be interesting!" ”
The more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable I became, saying, "What's the plot?" Why did he have to put us together? ”
Leo said: "Well, it's more esoteric, probably, it's like fate, but it's manipulated by someone......"
"Manipulate fate?" I was taken aback, "This is something that only God can do, right?" ”
"No, it's countless times more powerful than God...... Well, let's not talk about it, anyway, if you don't want to have more entanglements with this Iru, you'd better listen to me. Leo said.
"What are you thinking about?" I became alert.
"You just can't change your malicious speculation about me!" Leo said, "Okay, I don't care, you meet her, don't ask me how to deal with it, I can guarantee that you will definitely come together in the end because of this misunderstanding!" Think about what happened to the red-maned Gadrel that day! ”
I suddenly remembered that day, and I said, "If you don't want to regret it, go back!" "That's the case.
Suddenly, I remembered the scene when Iru appeared in front of me. and her reluctance and aggrieved face when she apologized......
Such a girl will become my daughter-in-law?
No, no, no! I quickly shook my head.
"What? Scared? Leo smirked.
"What's next?" I have to admit once again that I lost to him again.
"Keep going, whether you want to go back to the barracks or wander elsewhere, you will always run into her, and you can't hide!" Leo said.
I wanted to try divination, but after thinking about it, I didn't do it.
Let it come, just like the one who killed the red-maned Gadrel.
Even if he is ridiculed, whether it is Kate or Leo, it doesn't matter.
Sometimes, it's really not comfortable to know in advance what will happen next.
It's like grandpa, if there is nothing important, he won't go to divination.
However, I didn't go straight back to the barracks, but turned around and walked around the town's crossroads.
It was getting dark, there was no one on the streets, and the shops were closed.
I took a casual turn and prepared to go back to the barracks.
Turning the corner, I saw Iru waiting in front of me.
"Why is it so slow?" She said.
