Chapter 59: Sad
As he spoke, the wine and food had already been served, Bello picked up the wine barrel, opened it, poured a full cup for Roland, poured himself a glass of juice, and said: "I am really not good at drinking, I can only use fruit juice to toast you! Thank you for saving your life for the first cup! I did whatever you want!" After speaking, he drank the juice in one go.
Roland's eyes moved slightly, watching Bello drink the wine, and he followed suit, and flashed his glass at Bello. Bello filled Roland again, then poured himself a glass of juice.
Raising his glass, Bello spoke again: "I respect Brother Roland for this cup, and he is a model for the world!" He raised his glass and drank it.
Roland's heart was indeed slightly touched, this world, the weak eat the strong, such a world, it is good to survive, and I still want to stick to my own principles, which is quite difficult. Paused slightly, raised his glass, and drained the wine in the cup in one go, his gesture was quite graceful, and he felt a little noble and elegant. Looking at his toast, groaning, and stopping, he was self-contained, and he would not be associated with the pawn who sold straw mats anyway.
"This third cup, what do you want to salute, brother? You are not very old, there are a lot of things, I don't know which family taught you such a character. Roland asked with a smile as he put down his glass. At first, he really only thought that Bello was a child and came to the rescue, that is, because he was so young.
I didn't expect to save people, but I found that the child opposite seemed to be a character. Generally speaking, the children taught by the big family are not too bad, and they treat others and things without being arrogant or humble. These people have dealt with all kinds of people since they were children, they have etiquette, demeanor, and can observe words and feelings, which will always make people feel like a spring breeze.
But Bello is different, in terms of dealing with people, he doesn't seem to be so skilled, and he can see that he is not that sophisticated tone. His attitude is polite and courteous, his mind is flexible, and he is knowledgeable. The most rare thing is that this young man does not have the vague sense of superiority that ordinary aristocratic children have, but feels that he is the same kind of person as himself, and his temperament is sincere.
Bello scratched his head a little embarrassed, and said: "I also wanted to find a way to say that I would even respect you three times, but it seems to be a bit deliberate, and I am embarrassed!"
I only heard Belo continue: "This third cup, I won't be respectful, today I know a hero like Brother Roland, it is my three lives to be lucky, just for this fate, I salute Brother Roland for a cup!" Saying hehe, he smiled, raised his glass and drank it, Roland nodded with a smile, raised his glass, and toasted with Bello.
At this time, Belo picked up the knife and fork on the table, made a gesture of please, and said: "Brother Roland, eat vegetables! To be honest, I have never been to this place before, and when I come here today, I have to open my eyes, Brother Roland, I have to taste the dish you ordered." "It's basically all meat, all kinds of meat, Belo asked Roland to go under the knife first, and he ate it himself.
There are basically two types of dishes on the dinner table, one is a special product of red entropy hills, with a strong taste, mainly baked, red and green, and a combination of stew and roasting. One is the cold throat valley cuisine, this series of dishes are mainly light, the color is not strong, most of them are boiled, the soup is delicious, and the aftertaste is endless.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the two gradually became acquainted, and Belo asked: "Brother Roland, you are so good at reaching out, you can find anything much better than now, I don't know why you are doing this business of selling straw mats?"
Roland had already spoken and laughed, and Belo had a good time to talk about all kinds of interesting things he encountered in the process of business, hearing this, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, he poured a glass of wine, stroked his chin with his hand, groped for a long time, and then sighed.
Alas!
It seems that he has touched a sad matter, and Bello knows which pot he can't open and which pot he can't mention, and the atmosphere that has finally become harmonious has been messed up directly.
Before he could finish his thoughts, he heard Roland ask in a low voice, "Brother, what are your origins? Aren't you a nobleman!" He chatted with Belo for a long time, most likely because he said that Belo was listening. Although Bello confided not much information, he could also hear that he used to work in the workshop.
And Bello himself, due to a long-term lack of nutrition, began to grow again, relatively thin, and had a certain vegetable color on his face. This appearance doesn't look like a nobleman.
However, Bello's treatment of people and things cannot be exercised by ordinary families, and children of this age have only the conditions for aristocratic families to be trained by skilled means of receiving people. Or it is possible that a big businessman family may raise such an excellent child.
Roland asked, it was precisely because of Bello's internal and external contradictions that he couldn't see through the background of the young man in front of him.
Bello waved his hand and replied, "Brother Roland, do you think I look like a nobleman? My parents are both workshop employees, and I myself am a petty worker in the Lückelbeck workshop. Some time ago, my parents died, and I was involved in some messy things, and I had been absent from work in the Lückerbeck workshop for a few days. I don't know if I'll go back and continue to work as a dismantling worker in the future!"
"Huh?" Bello's words made Roland surprised, ordinary working families can cultivate this kind of demon, are the children now so powerful?"Are you serious?"
"Look at what you said, this thing can still deceive people, I've been in the Lückbeck workshop for more than a year, if you don't believe it, just ask. Bello replied with a smile.
"Brother, at your age, I only know how to pee and mud every day, and you can sit here with me at your age and talk and laugh, I can't believe that you are from an ordinary working family!" Roland looked at Bello and took a sip of the wine in the quilt with a smile.
"This—it's innate, isn't it?" said Bello, of course, not saying that he was a human being in two lifetimes.
Roland believed Bello's statement, after all, when he went to a workshop and asked casually, he knew what kind of family and background Belo was, and Belo had no reason to lie to him, the two only knew each other because of this rescue incident. What is the reason for telling lies?
"Brother, people, in this life, there are many paths to take, and there are many paths that you can choose by yourself, but it is too difficult to choose a path that suits you!
Bello was a little stunned, why did he suddenly say this?
Roland asked: "Brother, what do you think of me, don't talk about whether you can save you or not, just think of us meeting in Pingshui, you give me an evaluation!"
What kind of rhythm is this?Bello didn't understand Roland's question, but at this time, if he didn't boast, he would be a fool. Bello didn't even think about it and said: "Brother Roland, dignified, superb martial arts, chivalrous, heroic, heroic, and heroic, everywhere I am a first-class character, I am like this, I can only envy it, I myself can't do it to your level no matter what." ”
After listening to Bello's words, Roland didn't speak, took another drink, and laughed: "You! I felt that your kid was not so slippery just now, but I didn't expect that as soon as I opened my mouth, it was a string of sycophants, can you still talk well?" After speaking, regardless of Bello's reaction, he said to himself, "Little brother, I'll take it if you are a sycophant, this is a bit too much to praise me, but it is not completely impossible." ”
This Roland is still thick-skinned enough, and his evaluation of himself is not low.
"Brother, I'm Roland Felix, I'm twenty-eight this year, and I think I'm a character everywhere I go. Roland was a little drunk and talked a lot, "But, this world can't tolerate me!"
Can't afford it?
How do you say that?
Or how do you understand this?
Before Bello could react, he heard Roland continue: "I, the Felix family, were originally also prominent nobles in Cloud Sky City. It was just passed down from generation to generation, and by the time my great-grandfather lost his aristocratic status and became an ordinary citizen. Fortunately, when I was a child, my family was relatively wealthy, and I was able to afford to go to school, so I wouldn't be reduced to nothing. ”
"But now I wish I hadn't gone to school back then, that I was a white man, that I had nothing, that I was alone, and that I was busy just for food every day. It's okay to have a bad time in this life. Roland sighed and continued: "It's a pity, I can't go back! I've gone to school, I've opened my eyes to the world, and I can't go back." ”
"I was educated from a young age: to restore the glory of my ancestors. More than ten years have passed, running around every day, seeing that I am about to be thirty, with nothing to gain, no inch, I just want to cry when I think about it, and I can't restrain myself. Two lines of tears flowed from Roland's eyes. The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place. Thinking about more than ten years of running around and tiring, alone, fighting for so long, but not getting the desired results, this helplessness, this sadness and silence, this loneliness and depression, can destroy anyone.
"Back then, when I was young, like you, I admired the master and envied the chic floating life, in those knight novels, these lives were written very vividly and vividly, as long as you wanted, become a master, you will get it. Roland's control was quite good, and after the tears flowed, it didn't take long for them to stop, and he didn't care, and continued to drink and chat. "I didn't know until now that the master looked glamorous and noble, but who knew the warmth and warmth behind it? I left home when I was still here, and Yang Liu had just made a haircut, and in the envious eyes of the children, I entered the nobleman's house as a waiter. Ten years later, my parents have died, my friends have started a family, and I am surrounded by children and grandchildren, and I am still alone, hanging from each other, and every night when I sleep, I will wake up, for fear of dreaming of the souls of my parents, afraid that they will come to see me!"
With that, Roland drank another glass of wine.
