381 Anna's Great Adventure
"You've been fired for long-term absenteeism, Lucy."
"What?" "But my sister didn't come to work because she was injured and hospitalized by the rebels in the square!"
"Absenteeism is absenteeism, we don't care what reason you have, it's a fact that you haven't been to work for many days! Besides, can she work like she is now? β
"Damn! You guys @#Β₯%......"
"Brother...... Brother, don't quarrel with them......"
"Alas!"
Lucy limped out of the factory door with a pale face, the weather was fine, the sky was as blue and clear as the blue glass of the church, and a few thin clouds could be seen in the sky, as light as the morning mist in the sunlight, which reminded her of the cloudy light veils woven by the women workers in the workshop, but the workshop that had tormented both her and her fingers had now closed the door to her mercilessly.
"Lucy! They're so hateful, I'm going to ......" Lucy grabbed him by the arm and stopped him from continuing, "Brother! Don't quarrel with them...... Our identities will be exposed......"
Charlie looked at his sister's thinner body and pointed chin because of the hospitalization, and his green eyes were full of fear that he would cause trouble: "Alas! When will this day come to an end? If in the previous dynasties, you would not have suffered such hardships at all, we can all choose a husband for you, buy a dowry, you will not do heavier work than embroidery in your life, you can live a carefree life, if only time could be turned back! β
"But, brother, time can't be turned back. Again...... Besides, I can find another job! There are a lot of jobs now, and I am a female worker who already has experience. I will find a new job soon! β
"Find a new job! Sister, I never dreamed that you would be forced to work! If only in the old days......"
"But it's not the same anymore!" Lucy didn't want to continue the conversation. Although she was sad in her heart, she still tried hard to cheer up her brother, "Let's go to the nun sister of the church, she is a warm person, let her introduce me to a new job." β
"Yes, but if it had been before......"
"In the past, we wouldn't have known the sorority, the landlord's sister-in-law, who helped us when we were in trouble. When I was hospitalized, not only did I not ask for our money, but I also donated money to help us, unlike those who came to our house before, and when they saw our family losing power, it was as if we didn't save zΓ i......"
"Yes, it does." Charlie muttered, he still couldn't let go, he admitted that those people were good people, but their identity was ...... In the past. The son of a wealthy merchant would not deal with such an inferior person!
His black pupils flickered with a reluctant flame, and he glared indignantly at a group of exotic merchants who passed byβthough they were now dressed in gold-embroidered silk and ornate feathers, and he was in rags, when his father had a monopoly on the wool trade in Tulnest. Which of these wealthy foreign businessmen is not respectful to him!
"Brother, let's go, you only took half a day off. If you're late, someone else will say it. β
"Hmph, let's go."
"The weather was so nice today. Your Majesty, did you summon me for a military parade or a picnic? The short-legged chief of staff, who was secretly called a corgi by his subordinates, spoke cheerfully like a little girl eager to play. Completely ignoring the cloudy face of the Great Demon King on the throne.
"A military parade? Picnic? What is the weather? Don't sue me that you don't know anything! Her Majesty the Queen has always maintained the greatest tolerance for this villain, but today she seems to be unable to bear it anymore, "Then I will consider changing the intelligence chief, and I can't even control the things under my nose!" β
"What does your majesty mean by asking?" The Chief of Staff looked innocent, and his expression was completely comparable to that of Anna facing the math teacher, "If you are talking about approving the vacation that I have been asking for for a long time in arrears......"
"Don't pretend to be stupid!"
"I'm so stupid, Your Majesty."
ββ¦β¦β
"I dare to say to the gods and ...... of the new church Swear with the gods of the Eternal City that I really don't know anything, Your Majesty. β
"Enough!" Who doesn't know that you are a complete atheist, if it weren't for this, I wouldn't have put you in the position of chief of the general staff, Luo Yi The Great Demon King scolded in his heart for the emperor's decision-making that he was very proud of, and scolded his black-hearted subordinates: "Where did you get Princess Anna?" I can't find her anywhere! β
"Well, I don't know," the chief of staff continued to swear, "I'm not her babysitter, nor her teacher, and I don't have enough money or staff to show you the kids......
"I don't care what your money is, personnel, anyway you have to find her for me! Put this in the first sequence right now! A-rank mission! She must be found immediately! Do you understand? She's my heir, and she's missing ......."
"It's not a good thing."
βοΌβ Even Luo Yi, the Great Demon King, didn't expect the chief of staff to say such a red fruit thing, she was stunned for a while, and only shouted in a half-loud voice: "She is now my only heir, in case she has three long and two short ......"
"You'll have another one with the Archbishop."
ββ¦β¦β
"You also know in your heart that Anna is not a qualified heir at all," the chief of staff said coldly, "three years old and old, she is not that material, forcing her to succeed to the throne, we are miserable, she may not be happy, it is better to take advantage of your youth, hurry up and have another one, I think the archbishop is quite suitable, with his qualifications, the child born must be much smarter than these two, and he can also be a strong protector behind this child, even if you have a case, he can protect them, He's a monk and can't fight for your family power, so ......"
"Nonsense! I'm just so used to you that I can't even say this kind of thing! β
"I really think about you and this country, although I can't get used to that little white face, but he can be a guardian and ......"
"Get out! Roll on! Don't you hear you telling you to get out! β
The Chief of Staff strode out with his head held high, and explained to the attendant officer at the door, who was panicked by the sound of roars and smashing things, "It's okay, she's the same, you're new here, right?" β
"Yes, yes, the new guy." The attendant calmed down and looked at this kind dwarf with admiration, he was really unseemly, he was not afraid at all. (To be continued......)
PS: I read a recommendation post of a Taoist priest going down the mountain, which is full of "anyone in a society can get ahead, and the beautiful name is 'hard work', which actually destroys the normal ecology of society" "The society must take care of a certain level" "The guiding role of the main Chinese social elites is relatively small, unlike foreign countries that flaunt the people and the lord, in fact, many rules are for the elite to play a leading role, so in the final analysis, it is still a social problem", The reason for this desire to engage in a mutant caste system in a country where the emperor will Xiangning has a kind of 2,000-year-old is actually that the box office of the Taoist priest is not good......
