Chapter Ninety-Five: The Second Meeting
Aurora's house is not very large, so it can be divided into two separate rooms. One www.biquge.info the pen and the fun pavilion is used as a kitchen and dining room, and the other is used as a bedroom. It's just that this is quite good in the sin area, and it is said that houses the size of a single room abound, and even more so, several families live together, dividing a small house into several blocks.
Susan led Ian to sit down in the room, and after a few words, she found an excuse to drive Aurora into the room. She had a hunch that the things that Ian wanted to talk to her about should be related to Aurora's background, and these things might not be suitable for Aurora to know now.
"I'm sorry, Yelena son, but I initially mistook you for someone sent from Aurora's father's family. After going to the door and making sure that Aurora couldn't hear the sound, Susan returned to Ian and said softly, "I don't know who this coat of arms represents, but I do know that it is a symbol of nobility. The aristocrats would not tolerate having a child born to a sinner. So I'm a little wary of the Imperials approaching Aurora. ”
"Rest assured, I can understand that. Ian nodded, and then asked curiously, "But why did you suddenly ...... when you knew my mother was Elena?"
"Lady Elena is the only pharmacist in the Northern Regions who is willing to help the sinners for free, I have met her before, and many people here have also received her favors. Susan explained, "And I've heard that she has a son, and you do look like your mother except for the eyes." ”
"I see. Ian nodded thoughtfully. It was the first time he knew that his unreliable mother still had such a side, and she had such a weight in the hearts of the sinners.
"So, son of Elena, you didn't actually meet Aurora around here, did you?" asked Susan pointedly. Obviously, Aurora's small movements before did not escape her eyes.
"Aunt Susan, just call me Ian. After a second of silence for Aurora, Ian smiled and nodded, and replied equally softly, "Actually, I met Aurora on the other side of the sinkhole. From there, she wanted to go uptown to find her father. ”
Sure enough, I accidentally let her know. Susan let out a long sigh. Then he looked at Ian and asked, "Little Ian, do you want to know about Aurora's background from me?"
"I did want to tell you a little bit about Aurora's background. Ian admitted: "Actually, I may have information about his father, but the identity of the other party is a bit peculiar, and the available evidence is not very strong, so I don't dare to draw conclusions." ”
"Do you know who Aurora's father is?" Susan couldn't help but wonder.
"If that piece of cloth is indeed her father's family coat of arms, then I think it's probably eight or nine. ”
"Who is he? Who the hell is that bastard who abandoned my sister?" Susan jumped up in excess, grabbing Ian's sleeve.
"Abandon?" Ian frowned when he heard the word.
"Yes, abandoned. Susan said indignantly, "That bastard played with my sister's feelings, saying that she would rather give up her nobility for the sake of her. But he was lying, he just abandoned my sister after he got tired of her, and he hasn't been seen since. ”
But he didn't know that poor Bella was already pregnant with his child at that time. She waited for him for a long time, naively thinking that the bastard would come back. But in the end, she died of depression not long after giving birth to Aurora. ”
"Elena son, tell me who that bastard is? I know it's almost impossible for me to make that bastard pay, but at least knowing his identity allows me to better protect Aurora. ”
"If that bastard knew about her existence, I really don't know what terrible thing he would do to poor Aurora for the sake of the so-called aristocratic face?"
Susan's expression gradually turned into a begging with indignation, and Ian couldn't help but frown a little tighter.
Judging from the other party's emotional reaction, it is obvious that this Aurora's aunt should not be lying. But everything she said was, after all, one-sided, and the departure of Count Bell could indeed be characterized as abandonment. But there are many possibilities for abandonment. Abandoning each other in order not to drag each other down and abandoning each other because they are tired of playing, there is little difference between the two in terms of external performance, but in terms of actual feelings, they are very different.
But then, Ian shook his head and sighed again. Because he suddenly realized that what he was thinking about didn't make sense to Aurora at all.
The former would greatly increase the likelihood that Count Bell would be a member of the Black Balance Society. The latter, although it somewhat cleared the suspicion of being a member of the Black Balance Society, also showed that Count Bell probably did have an extremely bad attitude towards the criminals.
For Aurora, neither of these possibilities is good news for her.
With this in mind, Ian looked sideways at the bedroom door and apologized to Aurora in the bottom of his heart. He knew that he would not be able to fulfill his promise, for this girl, if her father was the Earl of Bell, she would never know who her father was, and she would have lived a happier life.
Then, he turned his gaze back and whispered to Susan, "Count Bell of the Upper Northern Regions, the red maple leaf is their family's coat of arms. ”
"Count Bell? That bastard is an earl?"
"It's just speculation now, maybe he has a few unknown brothers. ”
"No, none of those nobles are good, and I won't let them touch Aurora easily no matter what. Susan gritted her teeth and whispered a few words viciously, and then, as if thinking of something, asked Ian, "Little Ian, you haven't told Aurora about this yet, have you?"
"Not yet, and on this point we are unanimous. ”
"So ......"
"Don't worry, I'll keep it a secret from Aurora for the time being. Ian nodded and promised, "But if I have the chance, I will continue to investigate this matter and see if there are other possibilities." ”
"Thank you, little Ian. But for me, it's enough for Aurora to live in peace. ”
"Hehe, my mother used to say that. ”
Ian couldn't help but chuckle at the middle-aged woman's words.
The two then conversed a few more words, and after confirming that the other had no other information, Ian stood up and offered his resignation to Susan.
And when the two walked out of the house, the middle-aged aunt who had always made Ian feel a little familiar suddenly stopped him.
"By the way, little Ian, there's one thing I don't know whether to ask or not, the sinner girl who was with you more than a month ago, is she okay?"
"More than a month ago?" Ian, who was about to leave for home, was stunned and turned back to himself.
"Well, I don't think the Empire will really like a sinner because of my sister, but you're the son of Lady Elena, and I hope you'll be different from the rest of the Empire. ”
"You want to say?" Ian was slightly stunned, and he felt more and more familiar with the streets and alleys around him and the aunt in front of him.
However, Susan didn't mean to explain Ian's question, she just shook her head and admonished with a complicated look in her eyes: "Little Ian, for that girl, I just hope that if you don't really like her, then don't approach her." If you really like her, then don't abandon her easily. ”
