Verse 317: The lilies bloom
In the United Kingdom of Augustus, the preference for sons over daughters is a tradition, and it is precisely because of this tradition that the current regent in Santa Vita, Lord Cynthia, can only be the regent, and in the eyes of many cannot become a real king.
In Douala, of course, the fine tradition of preference for sons also exists.
Under normal rules, Xianni, the daughter who will eventually marry in the future, will not be able to have her own exclusive area like Xival, and she will only have her own room at most. But I don't know if it's because of Aubrey's special affection for his daughter or for some other reason, although Shannie doesn't have her own exclusive area like her two older brothers, she also has several rooms and some servants, which is faintly a small exclusive area.
Now she and Norman were in one of the rooms.
The servants had all been kicked out, and were not allowed to come in without an order, and the two of them were the only ones in the room.
Senny stood, with her back to Norman.
Norman looked at Shanny's back, wondering what the other party was looking for him.
In fact, he had planned to finish the matter on Shival's side, but Shanni had been silent, just didn't speak, just walked forward all the way, and he had no choice but to follow him because of his current identity. As a result, even though she had arrived, Xianni still didn't speak, and turned her back to him.
Did you provoke her somewhere? I don't remember it, and it shouldn't be, after all, I have the divine blood of Diortenus in my body now, shouldn't a human girl like Shanni have a good opinion of herself?
But Shanni did look like she was angry now.
So where did you provoke the other party?
Norman pondered for a long time, but couldn't think of a reason.
Norman meditated here, but he didn't know that the Senni with her back to him was no less thoughtful than he was.
When Xianni heard the news that Master Hugo and his wife had left the City Lord's Mansion early this morning, she was completely stunned.
The mood at that time was so complicated that it was only half a day's work, and she didn't remember her specific mood at that time, she only remembered that it was very complicated, it seemed to have everything, and the only thing she remembered was regret.
Regret that goes deep into the bone marrow.
That feeling, like a poisonous snake lurking in her body, wandering around and drilling around from her body, although it doesn't hurt, but that awkward and uncomfortable feeling disturbs people who can't think and live normally at all, and the heart seems to be held and twisted into twisted flowers, which makes people feel unrelenting and their souls seem to be lost.
It's not that she hasn't experienced separation, she and the gentleman from Santa Vita have also been separated, but the mood is different on two occasions: that time it is reluctant, and this time it is regret to despair.
She even thought that if she missed it and couldn't meet each other again in this life, then it seemed that there was no point in her life.
Suicide, this was an idea she had never had, not even when she learned that her father wanted to marry her to the lion in the north.
But this time there is.
And the re-meeting with Norman made her feel like she had a new life.
In just one morning, she experienced the whole process of falling from the peak of her life to the bottom, and then rising from the bottom to the top, which made her mood extremely complicated, and one thought after another flashed in her mind, which is why after she saw Norman again, not only did she not speak, but remained silent, because her mind was too messy now.
And as she thought about it little by little, her mind became more and more chaotic, and an extremely bold idea gradually formed in her mind.
This idea was originally a small one, but it had a deadly magic, like the forbidden fruit at the beginning of the world, once it appeared, it was impossible for Shannie to ignore it.
This thought exudes evil magic, and Shanni knows that this is really inappropriate, but she still can't help but fall into it little by little.
She struggled in agony to get out of it, but eventually, she sank into it completely......
Norman looked at the silent back of Senny in front of him, and no longer thought about where he had provoked the other party.
Now he just wants to quickly find an excuse to leave and go to Chen Qinghe.
And just as he thought of a reason, and was organizing the language to say it in a way that matched his identity, Shanni, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
"Sharia. ”
Shanny turned around after calling Norman's name.
Are you finally going to get down to business? Do you want to talk about the reason you just thought? It depends on the situation, let's see what Shanni is going to say. If her business is gone after she is finished, then she will not talk about it, and leave quickly, if there is a lot of nonsense like usual, then she still has to move out of the beginning of what she just thought.
Norman thought about the next situation in a split second, but Shanni didn't say what to say.
"I ...... I ......"
She just stood in front of him, "I" without stopping.
What's wrong with this guy?
Norman looked at Shannie in front of him, puzzled.
In his impression, this Miss Shanni is not good at speaking, but at least her speech is still very clear, why can't she speak a sentence coherently today, and she is directly stuck?
Also, she looks weird now.
I saw that the lady in front of Norman was hanging her hands to her side at the moment, clenching her fists tightly, her whole body was tense, and the whole person looked like a full bow, as if she was about to explode at the slightest touch.
Not only that, but Xianni's face was also strange, very ruddy, her eyes flashing rapidly, and her lips were trembling.
Is this eldest lady not in good health today?
If you are not in good health, you go to rest, and you have to find yourself what to do? And you don't say anything about yourself, it's just to delay your own time.
Something wrong with the brain!
Norman thought so indignantly.
At the same time, the barrage in Norman's live broadcast room gradually increased.
"Do you mean...... Wouldn't it?"
"What are you doing early in the morning?"
"I'm so happy to see this shy little expression! The first-person live broadcast is so good, it feels like I'm facing such a beautiful woman myself!"
"I thought she was beautiful enough, but I didn't expect her to be even more beautiful when she was shy. ”
"That's too red, isn't it? I'm afraid her face will explode......"
This kind of scene is familiar, as if I think of the summer night when I was seventeen years old, and I think of the girl I used to be. ”
"Who says it wasn't? When I think of the past, it's just two words—it's so young!" ......
Most of these barrages were read and listened to by Norman one by one.
Although he hadn't slept since last night, he had a unique method of splitting his mental power, which allowed him to take turns of mental power. So even if he hasn't slept all the time, but when part of his mental power has been re-employed after taking turns off, his spirit is much more energetic now than when he just finished refining the antidote, and many of them are used in the live broadcast room to hone this part of his spiritual power through the barrage, which is also the content of his daily cultivation.
However, although he could hear what these sailors in the live broadcast room were saying, Norman couldn't quite understand what they were saying - he could understand every word and sentence, but he couldn't understand what they really meant.
The sailors seemed to be saying the same thing, a well-known thing, and it seemed like it was the one thing that Shanni was about to do, but he didn't know what it was.
Norman wanted to gesture to the Templars, but the man in front of him soon let him know what the sailors were talking about.
Xianni's mouth trembled more and more, and even her tense body trembled with it, and her eyes became more and more erratic.
Suddenly, her whole body froze, her eyes closed all of a sudden, and she closed tightly, because she was too tightly closed, and a large number of tattoos appeared at the corners of her eyes on both sides.
Finally, she opened her mouth and said the words.
"I like you!"
The words came out as if all her strength had been exhausted.
On her flushed face, all the original flushes faded away and became pale, and her tense body instantly relaxed, and the whole person even felt a little shaky.
Her spirit seemed to have been withdrawn with the exit of that sentence, and the only thing that had not changed was that her eyes were still closed and she didn't dare to open them.
Does she like herself?
Norman was a little stunned at the moment.
I was really stunned.
It was the first time he had ever heard someone say something like that to him.
This kind of thing is too far away from his life.
Before going to Cárdenas, his life was only to work hard to grow food and survive, and at most in his free time, he imagined that he would find a capable wife in the future, but it was not because he liked it or not, but because he wanted to have more sons to help with the work. And in Ashley Village, everyone thinks the same thing as Norman.
After going to Cárdenas, his living conditions are indeed getting better and better, eating a lot of things that he has never eaten before, and he no longer worries about life, but he is getting busier and busier, busy studying, busy fleeing, busy saving people and dragons......
He's too busy, and he's an oracle, a saint.
What woman is brave enough to show her love to a saint? You know, when Norman was a nobody, he didn't show his love to Agnes, just because Agnes took the initiative to contact him, which led to his death.
So Norman grew up to be so old and was the first time he had come into contact with this aspect of love, and he had no experience at all.
Norman had no experience, but the people in his live broadcast room were experienced.
To say that these people in the earth world may be far inferior to Norman in terms of surviving in the wild and farming, but in love and love, they are enough to be Norman's teacher.
"Sure enough, I said it!"
"Ahh
"Please, people don't confess to you at all, okay?"
"I used to curse the first-person perspective for making me vomit in high-altitude flight, but now I have to admit that the first-person perspective is really great!
"By the way, if I'm not mistaken, the anchor has always appeared in front of her as a woman, right?!"
"Solve the case, she's a Lala! Sure enough, beautiful girls should like girls!"
"That's exciting, Lily!"
"Fart Lily, the anchor is a pure man. ”
"Damn, the anchor is really shrouded in the aura of the protagonist, and anyone who pretends to be a woman can be confessed by such a beautiful woman, God is unfair!"
"Others confess that they are blushing and shy, why is she pale?"
From the perspective of psychology and behavior, she is obviously a person with strong self-confidence, her peerless appearance and wealthy family background have given her full confidence, and even made her confident to the point of arrogance. She was like the proudest white swan in the world, and only others looked up to her, but now she bowed her proudest head in front of others, which made her feel a sense of humiliation, and her abnormal face was the reaction to this psychology. At the same time, it can also be seen from here that she is indeed very affectionate, so deep that people like her who will never bow their heads are willing to bow their heads. ”
"This live broadcast room is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, buddy can try to sign up for the Knights Templar, I heard that the treatment is quite good. ”
......
Early in the morning, it was the moment of the day when the number of people in the live broadcast room was the least and the barrage was the least, but now stimulated by this unusual content, the number of people did not rise much, but the number of barrages soared, densely comparable to the prime time of the evening.
And it was also through the observation of the barrage of these sailors that Norman also realized one thing.
"I'm a woman,"
Norman muttered to himself.
The actor's self-cultivation has penetrated into his bone marrow, so even in this unprecedented and inexplicable situation, Norman still has not forgotten his current identity.
"I'm a woman......"
Norman repeats it again, as if to say it to Shanny, and as if to himself.
I've never eaten pork, I've always seen pigs run.
Norman had never had any experience in this area, but he had heard such things as "like" and "love" from the bards who passed by the village every year.
As people generally know, in such a story, one of the protagonists must be a man and the other is a woman, and one woman says to the other "woman" I like you!
However, Norman also guessed that it was probably the blood of Diortenas that was at work.
This thing is too powerful, isn't it?
