Chapter Seventy-One: Temporary Residence in the Harris Family

The harvest season in autumn is also the season of withering.

The team of the Fergus family made their way down the winding road, kicking up a cloud of dust.

On both sides of the road, there are yellowed trees, shrubs, and weeds, and the autumn wind blows, and the fallen leaves slide off the trees, fluttering, circling and rolling in the air, like yellow elves in the wind.

Occasionally, passing by the fields, it is obvious that the fields are empty, and the crops have obviously been harvested.

After resting and eating by the side of the road at noon, they set out again, and in the afternoon, when the sun was almost gone, Gray and the others entered a small city of about three thousand people, and came to a castle built on a hillside.

In front of the castle, there were already many people waiting, led by three people.

In the center is a middle-aged man with brown hair and a brown beard, nearly 1.8 meters tall, and slightly emaciated.

To his left is a middle-aged woman in a black dress, who has been slightly deformed by the middle age, but she can still see that she was beautiful when she was young.

To his right was a young man in his early twenties, with brown hair and a lake blue shirt and trousers.

These three are Viscount Harris Blour. Harris, Baroness Beth. Milne and their son Kevin. Harris.

Because the Fergus family had sent cavalry to inform them first, they knew that Gray and they would be here today.

The Fergus family's ranks stopped, the cavalry rolled over from their horses and jumped off, while Gray and the others walked to the carriage under the leadership of Viscount Fergus.

"Viscount Fergus."

"Baron Harris."

First of all, Viscount Fergus and Baron Harris greeted each other, and both of them were more formal, after all, both of them represented their respective families, and on this occasion with outsiders present, neither of them would weaken their respective family identities.

"Brother, sister-in-law."

"Uncle, aunt, cousin."

"Auntie, uncle, Cousin Bernard, Cousin Ellis, Cousin Caroline."

……

Then the wives and children of both sides stepped forward to greet each other.

Gray and Sarah also stepped forward to greet them, but the two did not call Bernal and the others together, but only called "Baron Harris, Mrs. Bess, Brother Kevin".

I could clearly feel the special gaze cast by the three Baron Hals, and it was obvious that the three of them knew the identities of Gray and Sarah.

Sarah was a little nervous and grabbed Gray's arm tightly, but Gray faced it calmly.

No matter what attitude the Harris family had towards the two of them, they could not shake their position in the Fergus family.

Except for staying overnight at the Harris family tonight, they won't have much intersection with the Harris family after that, so they don't need to care about the Harris family's attitude towards them.

"This way, please!"

The cavalry and carriage were led by the servants of the Harris family to settle down first, while Gray and the others were led by the three Baron Harris to a spacious living room.

In the spacious living room, there are rose-shaped rune lamps overhead, beige walls and floors, and porcelain ornaments such as vases.

Compared with the largest parlor of the Fergus family, the area is a little smaller, and the decoration in it is also a little worse, but the Harris family is only a baron family after all, and it is natural that there is some gap with the Fergus family.

"Congratulations on getting a cold tiger cub!"

Everyone took their seats, and Baron Harris looked at Viscount Fergus with envy in his eyes.

"I'm so envious to learn that you've got a tiger cub!"

"Thank you, this time I can get the cold tiger cubs, and there is a lot of luck."

Viscount Fergus smiled slightly, although there was no smug look on his face, he could clearly feel the pride in his heart.

It is indeed a matter of pride to get a blood beast that can be compared to a fierce blood warrior when it reaches adulthood, and it only takes three years to become an adult and become a combat power.

"Haha, be humble, you can get it, more because of the strength of your Fergus family."

Baron Harris shook his head.

"If it were my Harris family, even if I found out, I am afraid it would be taken away by the Locke family."

"That's right, uncle, this time I was able to get the Cold Tiger cub completely because of the strength of your Fergus family."

Kevin. Harris also smiled.

"I'd love to see that tiger cub, but it's a pity you didn't bring it with you."

"Cousin, after the marquis's birthday party this time, why don't you come with us to the Fergus family as a guest, so that we can see the tiger cubs."

Bernal suggested.

"Yes, cousin, come with us to the Fergus family, you haven't been to our Fergus family for a long time."

Ellis was also happy.

"Okay, I'll go with you to the Fergus family then."

Kevin. Harris was clearly impressed by the proposal, a tiger cub who had become an adult and a fierce combat force, and he really wanted to go to the Fergus family to have a look.

"My cousin will have to stay a little longer, and we haven't seen each other for more than a year."

Caroline also smiled and spoke.

"Speaking of which, your Fergus family has done several eye-catching things this year, and at this marquis's birthday banquet, I am afraid that you will be targeted by several other viscount families."

Baron Harris said with a slightly serious face.

"That's what I estimated."

Viscount Fergus's face also became serious, and it was just a matter of targeting, the key is that this is related to the Marquis of Sidney's family's tilt towards the resources of each family, and it really needs to be treated carefully.

"The families you should be most careful about this time are the Richens family, the Bessemat family, and the Locke family, and among these three families, the younger generation is extremely strong."

Baron Harris said.

"Especially the Locke family, the last time they failed to capture the Cold Tiger cubs, this time they will definitely target you, and Alver. Locke & Morey. Both of them are already mid-rank blood warriors. ”

According to his source channels, he only knew that the Locke family suddenly appeared to snatch the cold tiger cubs, but he did not snatch the cold tiger cubs away, and the rest was not very clear.

Gray & Morey. Locke's fight, the Locke family did not publicize it because of their calculations, and the Fergus family did not want to let people know too early that Gray was already a mid-ranking blood warrior, so they deliberately blocked the news.

"I understand."

Viscount Fergus nodded, but his gaze was on Gray.

Not only him, but Bernal couldn't help but glance at Gray at this time, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

If there is no Gray this time, the pressure of the Fergus family will probably be on him, although he is already a median blood warrior, but other viscount families also have median blood warriors, such as the Locke family and the Rykins family, and there are as many as two, and the pressure is even greater.

Although the challenge prohibits many-to-one, it does not prohibit wheel warfare, after all, a large number of people is also an advantage, and even if you go to the battlefield in the future, this advantage can be used.

Therefore, even if he defeats one of the mid-rank blood warriors, he may be defeated by the other mid-rank blood warrior of the other side due to a large amount of physical consumption.

Well, now that Gray has joined the median blood warrior, his pressure has been reduced, and Gray's strength is still above him, and at the critical moment, he will definitely be able to give other families a big surprise.

As for why the Locke family didn't publicize the fact that Gray was already a mid-rank blood warrior, they probably guessed what the other party was thinking, but after weighing the pros and cons, they still felt that it would be more beneficial for them not to reveal Gray's strength.

As the conversation continued, the atmosphere in the living room became extremely lively, and everyone was talking about the birthday banquet of the Marquis of Sidney, and talking about some of the past events that happened between the Fergus family and the Harris family.

Of course, in this excitement, Gray and Sarah must be removed.

The two of them were not able to join in the conversation from beginning to end, not because they didn't want to participate in the conversation, but because the three of Viscount Harris spoke very skillfully, I don't know whether intentionally or unintentionally, bringing most of the topics to an atmosphere where Gray and Sarah could not participate.

Feeling that she couldn't fit into the atmosphere, Sarah's face was slightly pale, but she was just a 14-year-old girl who had not yet arrived, and she felt that she was ostracized, and her mood couldn't help but become depressed.

"Dismount?"

After patting Sarah's hand and whispering a few interesting things in Sarah's ear, amusing Sarah and making Sarah feel relaxed, Gray glanced at the three Barons Harris and sneered in his heart.

In his previous life, he had heard of cold violence, and the best way to show disgust with a person was not to insult him, but to ignore him and treat it as air, and apparently this is what he is experiencing with Sarah now.

"Father, is it true that I heard that Viscount Besemer is a woman, and the next heir of the family, if nothing else, is it also a woman?"

Gray's heart moved, and he opened his mouth to ask Viscount Fergus.

Since I can't participate in your topic, it's better for me to lead the topic, although Gray was just an ordinary person in his previous life, he is already an adult who has entered society, and he still understands how to break the deadlock.

"Indeed, the Besemai family is very peculiar, and the outstanding children in each generation must be women, so the Besemai family has a tradition of women as heirs."

The three members of the Harris family deliberately alienated Gray and Sarah, and Viscount Fergus could not notice it, although he did not express it on his face, he already had some dissatisfaction in his heart, and when he heard Gray asking, he immediately spoke.

"The most prominent woman of your generation, the Bessemat family, is a woman named Jory. The girl of Besemai, who was already a mid-ranking blood warrior more than a year ago, was no more talented than Morey. Locke ......."
