Chapter 445: Aunt Mary
As the two chatted like this, Donner gradually discovered that Lucia knew every neighbor in the blacksmith's shop, even Aunt Mary at the bazaar. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The conversation revolves around the island of Rand, and Richard slowly becomes less embarrassed and joins the conversation between his brother and the princess, and when Donner tells interesting stories about Richard's childhood, there is a burst of laughter in the small blacksmith shop.
In the occasional silence, Donner suddenly remembered that many years ago, Kelly was sitting here and had a casual conversation with her. It's just that Kelly cared about the outside world at that time, and Lucia in front of her at this time had a soft spot for Lante Island.
The world seems bizarre, but in retrospect, it seems that everything is predestined. The girls on the island of Lant dream of the outside world, while the princesses of the imperial family enjoy the peaceful life of this small island. The relationship between the two is just due to the environment, and there is no one who is right and who is wrong, and there is no such thing as a high level.
Perhaps to Kelly in her girlhood, Donner was the same kind of person as herβborn on the island of Lante, but not here.
But in fact, before he came to Lant Island, Donner had already seen the disturbing and strange world on Earth, and it was because of this that he fell in love with everything about this small island. This mood is probably more similar to Lucia's current feelings.
Before I knew it, the sun outside the door was already tilting to the west, and it was afternoon.
Donner got up and said, "Aren't you hungry?"
"I've been hungry for a long time......," Richard stood up with a smile, "let's go to the market and buy something to eat, I haven't tasted Aunt Mary's craft for a long time." β
"Hmm!, come along?" said Donner to Lucia with a smile.
"I'm ......" Lucia suddenly panicked: "I, I'm not going......"
"Then my brother and I will bring you some back!" said Richard, halfway through the door.
Donner smiled and shook his head, and followed.
The market in Rand Town was nowhere near as lively as Donner remembered, not because it was deserted, or because his memory was wrong, but because he had walked too far away. But when he saw the familiar bazaar from afar, Donner's heart was more excited than when he faced the sight of the Coenas River crossing, the empty alleys of Nice City, the Emerald Harbor with thousands of sails, and the demons of St. Petersburg dancing.
Richard ran straight to Aunt Mary's stall.
"Aunt Mary......" He deliberately didn't say what he wanted to buy, just looked at the chubby aunt behind the stall with a grin.
"Oh...... Oh my God...... "Aunt Mary covered her mouth and rubbed her eyes again, as if she couldn't believe what was happening in front of her, "Richard! Is it Richard?"
"Aunt Mary......" Donner also stood behind Richard, looking at her with a grin.
"Little mute...... It's really you brothers......" Aunt Mary wiped tears from her eyes with joy, and the surrounding stall owners also gathered around.
"Aunt Mary," Richard corrected with a smile, "my brother has already spoken!"
"Yes, yes, yes, you can speak, you can talk a long time ago! Every time your father comes, he has to say it again......" Aunt Mary suddenly felt a little sad when she said this, but she was only sad for a moment, and then she regained her smile, and then asked: "Richard, what about your sister-in-law?" She had long been accustomed to Donner's inability to speak, so she subconsciously asked Richard.
At this time, several stall owners around also gathered, and everyone smiled happily as if they had a happy event in their own family.
"Are they really the two children of Tom's family?"
"Really...... The little mute is getting more and more like his mother......"
Donald smiled, didn't care about everyone's misunderstanding, just smiled and nodded to everyone.
"Aunt Mary, Kelly is back, too, but ...... She's not my sister-in-law. Richard explained with a smile.
"Silly boy, I'm asking your sister-in-law, didn't she just come back from outside last month......" Aunt Mary said, "Kelly......?" Is Kylie back too?"
"My sister-in-law just came back last month?" Richard was confused by Aunt Mary.
Donner quickly patted him on the shoulder, smiled and said to Aunt Mary, "This kid is still a little seasick...... Aunt Mary, bring us three pieces of brown bread, plus a carrot and a ......."
"Got it, it's still the same, isn't it?" Aunt Mary actually remembered what Donner would buy when he came here in the early years, and she picked it out in three or two clicks, and when she saw that Donner and Richard didn't have baskets in their hands, she handed them the baskets along with them.
Donner took the basket, took out a gold coin from his bosom and handed it over, "Auntie, you used to give me an extra piece of bread every time, if it weren't for this, Richard wouldn't have grown so strong, and the extra money should be regarded as the bread money of the year......"
"No, no, no, how can this work!" Aunt Mary complained while shirking: "Little mute, your woman was like this when she first came back, and now you are so generous, this is not like a person who lives a life!"
"Mary...... Don't you see it yet? Richard is afraid that he has really become a knight...... The brothers don't care about the money anymore, so you can take it!" said the stall owner next to him with a smile.
"That's not good...... Aunt Mary seemed to be really angry, forced the gold coins back into Donner's hand, glared at him and said, "If you want this, Auntie won't sell anything to you......" At this point, her tone softened again: "Listen to Auntie, if you don't bring loose money, let your woman pay it tomorrow." β
Donner wryly withdrew the gold coin, smiling and nodding.
The brothers chatted with their aunt for a while, and when asked where they had been all these years, Donner only said that both of his brothers were working in the imperial capital of Coennas.
"Koenas...... It takes years to come back and forth, right?" said Aunt Mary, "No wonder you never come back...... By the way, I have to go back this time after staying for a long time, right?"
Donner nodded yes.
Not long after, the two brothers left the bazaar in the eyes of the crowd.
"Brother...... Aunt Mary couldn't be Princess Lucia, was it?" Richard asked softly until there was no one around.
"Hmm...... Maybe she thought I was dead. Donner shook his head helplessly: "You go back and act as if you don't know anything, so as not to embarrass her." β
"Well, no wonder she won't go to the market with us?" Richard smiled and scratched his head, "Brother, I think Princess Lucia is very good." β
"You'd better worry about yourself......" Donner pushed him hard, Richard pretended to stumble and almost fell, and responded with a smile: "My brother didn't marry a daughter-in-law, how can I get my brother's turn?"
Donner shook his head slightly, remembering the sight of the half-elf girl tearfully saying goodbye to him at the head of the city, and his heart suddenly twitched. (To be continued.) )
