219 Twin Plants and Double Shadows (II)
Ryan returned home, and although the stone castle felt cold and stiff, it made him feel infinitely safe, and his heart warmed when he saw it. In the past, when he was a mercenary, he ran around and did not have a fixed residence, but now he has finally changed his life and his destiny, this is the place where his dream takes off, and no one is allowed to destroy it, not even the ancient undead.
In the hall of the castle, lunch was already on the table. Rose didn't eat, she was waiting for her husband to come back, a habit they had developed since they were together, and it had been almost ten years. Ryan's lobbying of Husso last night did not seem to have gone very well, while she went to Seth's, and the thought of the beastly face of the other party who almost wanted to strip her naked on the spot last night made her faintly gaggy, and the sumptuous food in front of her seemed to have no appetite anymore.
The husband didn't know when he would return, but the food was getting cold, and there were several maids waiting beside her, and she was about to get the bread and delicacies on the table to be hot, when Ryan entered the hall.
Rose's eyes lit up and she stood up to greet her: "I'm back!" Let's go wash my hands first, I made a few dishes with my own hands, the craftsmanship from the Aurora Kingdom, I think you should like it. ”
Ryan looked at the delicacies on the table, nodded very coldly, and after going to the bedroom to wash the handles, he returned to the table, and while holding the white bread, he asked, "How did you talk to Seth?" ”
Speaking of this, Rose was full of grievances, but she didn't dare to show it on her face, she said very calmly: "Seth said that he will follow us to the army in the evening, whether it succeeds or not, he wants me to accompany him for five days afterwards, and I talked about it for three days...... Ryan. He asked me to sign the contract, but I didn't dare to agree, so I put it off for the time being, and he asked me to answer him by evening at the latest. ”
It is normal for a wife to sell her body in exchange for certain benefits among the nobility. Ryan had already realized. He and Rose have been together for ten years, and the two have no children yet, but the lovers he raises outside are already three pregnant. And Rose, so far, her belly has not moved at all.
Rose didn't seem to be in a hurry about it, but Ryan had other thoughts in mind.
Ryan and Rose are not from the same place, so the latter is not clear, in the village where Ryan was born. There is a rumor that if the wife can't get pregnant. And there is no problem with the husband's health. Then these two are not suitable for being together, and if they barely get by, one of them will definitely have an accident.
At first, Ryan thought that there was something wrong with his body, and he fought and killed during the mercenary period, and he might have hurt some places. But after he tried to have a few lovers, he found that the problem was not with himself, but with his wife Rose, and from then on. And he had a grudge against her.
In this context, Ryan's feelings for Rose became colder and colder, and after listening to his wife's words, Ryan swallowed the white bread in his mouth and said slowly: "Contract...... Then promise him. ”
Listening to her husband's indifferent tone, Rose was a little anxious: "Ryan, once the contract is signed, you can't break the contract anymore." ”
"The dead don't have to keep the covenant." Ryan sneered: "Seth will die in the hands of Chen Xiansong tonight, what a poor person." So you don't have to worry, let other men touch you, I'm reluctant. ”
A woman's intuition has always been very sensitive, and Rose should have been happy to hear this, but she did not hear love from this sentence, only a desire to possess and dominate things. Her heart was suddenly as cold as ice, and she smiled reluctantly and said, "I ate something just now, and now that I'm full, I'll go to sleep first." ”
Ryan didn't care, just nodded.
Back in the room on the third floor, Rose closed the door, she opened the closet, in addition to the gorgeous lady's clothes, there were several very old women's linen dresses, which were gifts from Ryan when she was a mercenary, and she was reluctant to throw them away, and they have been stored here.
The linen clothes are rough, and now she is a noblewoman, and her fingers are already thin and tender, and these clothes will even make her feel a faint tingling sensation in her fingers to the touch, but her heart is warm, and the time of love and love in those years seems to be close at hand.
Perhaps becoming an aristocrat is not a good choice.
Rose sighed as she sighed as she slept on the side of the bed she was sleeping on suddenly buzzing under the pillow. The sound was abrupt, but she didn't show any surprise, and after closing the closet, she lifted the pillow and took out a white elemental spar from below, the size of a human hand, completely round, like a mirror.
There is a woman's head in the spar, which is extremely similar to Rose's face, the only difference is that her head and pupils are light green, although the two are similar in appearance, but this woman is more beautiful and temperamental than Rose.
"What's wrong again?" Rose asked at the hedron, "Later, Ryan will come up, and if he sees me talking to myself in a mirror, he will definitely think that I am possessed by the devil." ”
The woman in the hedron snorted coldly and said, "You don't have to worry, he left the house." Definitely going to those lovers. ”
"Ryan should go and convince more nobles to prepare for the evening." Rose didn't want to think too badly of her man: "Besides, it's normal for a noble man to have a few women outside. When she said this, she couldn't accept it herself, and her voice was obviously lowered.
"But aristocratic women generally have a few secret lovers, why don't you have it?" The woman in the spar still sneered: "Don't fool yourself, Ryan has no feelings for you anymore, why should you stay by his side." Besides, your actions at night are looking for death, and that woman without any expression can kill almost all of you, plus that woman with blond hair and unknown strength, you have no chance of winning. ”
Rose felt that the other party was alarmist: "Let's not talk about Ryan's matter for now, sister, you underestimate us too much." It's a matter of two or three years that you have consciousness, and you may not know that we are actually very powerful. ”
"You and I share the same memory area." The green-haired woman snorted, "You used to be really strong, but now you ...... Your ability has dropped to a great extent, and even if you were four years ago, compared to those two women, you are very far behind, so why bother to wade into this muddy water. ”
"He's my husband." Rose sighed softly: "If I don't follow him, I'd better go away by myself." ”
"Half of your body belongs to me." The green-haired woman said angrily: "You married such a filthy man without my consent, I will put this aside first, after all, I haven't woken up at that time, but now it's different, I've woken up, and you have to get my consent to do whatever you want to do in the future, otherwise I will take your body." ”
"Okay, I just want to take a break." Rose smiled indifferently.
"Damn, I have no fear of being my sister. I'm not allowed to fight those two women at night, it doesn't matter if you want to die, but I want to live longer. The green-haired woman snorted coldly and disappeared from the hedrons.
Rose is not a sorcerer, but she is born with the ability to use some unique abilities with hedrons. In the past, she always thought that she was talented, but now she knows that these abilities are actually her sister's, and she just borrowed them.
Putting down the hedron in her hand, Rose began to tidy up her things, she went to the storage room and took out her weapons and leather armor, which had accumulated some dust, she did not call the servants, but cleaned them up herself, and then returned to the room, took off her coat, and put the leather armor on.
A somewhat blurry figure appeared in the large bronze mirror in the room, under the long pale silver hair, was a woman dressed in gray-brown leather armor, delicate and elegant, compared with before, Rose was a little less unyielding and heroic, a little more weak and beautiful. Sure enough, as my sister said, my strength has obviously decreased.
She sat in her room in leather armor and waited all afternoon to recuperate, and then in the evening, her husband Ryan finally returned.
"You don't have to go with us." While eating dinner, Ryan said: "Hu Suo and I personally lead the team in the evening operation, you can stay at home." ”
"But ......"
"The army is different from mercenaries, they can't tolerate a woman in it." Ryan said very gently: "Besides, I don't want anything to happen to you, we have gathered more than 3,000 people this time, and we have also purchased a lot of anti-magician arrows, they can't fly away, even if they are the servants of the sun god, they can't deal with so many soldiers, they will die of exhaustion." ”
It had been a long time since Ryan had spoken to her so gently, and Rose felt that her heart seemed to warm again, and she nodded obediently. I had a lot of fun drinking the broth.
Not long after dinner, Ryan set out with the city guards. The city lord's mansion was built halfway up the mountain, and Rose stood on the balcony, looking at the dark city below, where a fire dragon was converging towards the city gate, and the leader was her husband.
She was going to stand here and wait until her husband's Da came.
But soon, Rose noticed that something was unusual, and a few lights did not go to the city gate, but came to the foot of the mountain under the city lord's mansion, and then gradually approached, it was a horse painting.
It's all this time, who is coming? She went back to her room and went downstairs. At this time, she found that the whole castle seemed to be quiet, and the maids seemed to have gone to rest in the little rooms in the backyard. As she reached the hall, the gate was opened, and the man in front of her was her butler, who was bending down to invite someone in.
When the man entered the door and was lit by candlelight, Rose recognized the other person as the noble Seth.
"Why are you here?" Rose had a premonition in her heart that something bad was going to happen.
"Beautiful Lady Rose, you are mine tonight. We're going to have a fantastic evening. Seth smiled happily, the fat on his face squeezed into a ball, and took out a sheepskin contract from his bosom: "This is the autograph of your husband Lord Lane, and his handprint." (To be continued......)
