"What do you mean, old fellow?" Seeing Dio and Sophia accompany Anthony away, Steven couldn't hold back his curiosity anymore. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Am I old?" said Don grinned.
In fact, Don is not old at all, if the Marquis of Sain and the city of Santis are selected as beautiful men, he is a well-deserved first place, young people such as Dio and Gordon are much worse than him, especially Don's peach blossom eyes, which set off Donn's fair cheeks to be extremely bewitching, although his temples have become snow-white, but this did not give Don a penny, but made him feel a little more vicissitudes, which belongs to the charm of a mature man.
"Not old, Uncle Don is not old at all. Isabel grinned and replied, "Hmm...... Lady Anthony is also very young, what a coincidence. ā
"Ahem......" Tang En coughed dryly and lifted his face: "What are you little girl thinking?" said that although he said this, his thoughts involuntarily drifted back, and the sneer full of ridicule suddenly appeared on that numb face, which clearly exuded a withered beauty, which made his heart move and make his heart ache. Moreover, the face coincided with the image in his memory, and their expressions were equally stiff, except that one was about to die, and the other was dead.
"Is it me thinking nonsense, or is Uncle Don thinking nonsense?" said Isabel coquettishly, daring to lose her mind in front of her, and underestimating her observational powers, she decided not to save face for Don again.
"If you have time to care about your Uncle Donne, you might as well care about yourself. Don smiled strangely, "You can't beat Dio's idea, what about the remaining two? Gordon and Raymond, who do you like more? Do you need me to talk to them?"
"Cut! One is like a piece of wood, the other is like a fool, I won't like them. Isabel's eyes dimmed for a moment, but immediately returned to normal, just when spring came, she also thought that she would become a bride this year, who knew that the world was unpredictable, she and Colin not only parted ways, but also turned against each other, and the previous mountain alliance and sea oath became a big joke.
"Little girl, you don't see people as well as me. Don shook his head slowly: "Don't look at the current Gordon and Raymond are not as good as Dio, but this is because of their lack of experience, what will happen in the future...... It's not easy to say, the origin of those two little guys is not simple. ā
"Experience, does Dio have a lot of experience?" asked Isabel.
Don was stopped by Isabel's question, he scratched his head, speechless, it stands to reason that Dio had been hiding in the manor for many years, rarely going out, and should have the least experience, but the truth was quite the opposite.
"No wonder Mentor Lindsay said you're a ghost elf, why are there so many problems?" Don had to bring out the elder's shelf: "Tell you, Gordon and Raymond will definitely be able to make some achievements in the future, let's say, which one do you prefer?"
"Will they be able to surpass Dio?" said Isabel.
"That can't be. Donn laughed: "Our family's Dio is the best. ā
"I have to find someone better than Dio, and in that respect I won't lose to Sofia. Isabel said with a grin.
"Then take your time, little girl. Don shook his head: "But what...... Youth is fleeting, you ghost elf only know how to be lazy and slippery, never concentrate on cultivation, and when you grow old, even if you find it, people may not be able to accept you. ā
"Phew!Phew!" these words hit Isabelle's vital point, she actually forgot about the etiquette between the elders and the juniors, and snorted a few times: "Uncle Donne, what did you say?!"
In fact, there is a huge difference between the surnames of men and women, men practice hard, most of them are to master strong power, and with strength comes status and power, but there are not many women who like to fight fiercely, and a large number of women practice just to stay young like the legendary warrior Althea, even if they can't do it, at least they have to work hard to prolong the years of youth.
"Hey, hey, hey......" Don showed a victor's smile, the little girl wanted to fight with him, and she was still very tender! Then Don said in a tone of lesson: "Isabel, spend your time on serious things in the future, don't waste your talent in vain, otherwise, one day you will regret it." ā
"Uncle Donne, you......" Isabel paused angrily, and then rolled her eyes: "I'll go to Lady Anthony and expose Uncle Donne's true colors!"
"What's wrong with me?" Donn was stunned.
"Greedy for money and lustful, I can't walk when I see a young and beautiful girl......"
"Hey, little girl, you can't talk nonsense!" Don hurriedly interrupted Isabel before Isabel could finish speaking. Strictly speaking, Don En is a person who has been in the middle of thousands of flowers and does not touch a leaf, from his youth to the present, I don't know how many women are crazy and obsessed with him, but he has always cherished only one woman, that is, Sophia's biological mother, although he finally bowed his head under pressure, but he has always been obsessed with his first love, and he evaluates Don En with greed for money and lust, the former is not easy to refute, because Don En has done something wrong, but the latter is definitely a slander.
However, Isabel had already run away with a smile, she was just suspicious just now, so she made a tentative speech, but Don didn't mind Anthony's opinion of him very much, for fear of being misled, so all the cover-up and explanation would be superfluous.
"Old fellow, are you serious?" Spike looked at Don directly, friends are precious and confidant, he understands that Don has been living in the shadow of his first love for many years, if there is no hatred to support him, and he also has to take care of and support Sophia, God knows what will become of Don, and now Don has signs of coming out of the shadows, he is sincerely happy for Done.
"Seriously, get out!" shouted Donn.
* The Marquis of Sain gave a grand welcome in the castle, in fact, he was not interested in this kind of superficial article, so much pains, just wanted to announce a few things to all his subjects, I have returned, the coalition of the Grand Dukes has been defeated, and I have brought many, many friends...... So in the middle of the welcome ceremony, he pushed Monroe to the front desk and ran to the back himself, and he had more important things to deal with than the welcome ceremony. For example, this time the marquisate encountered a crisis, and the performance of those counts, he must find out clearly.
It's better to be your own person...... Marquis Sain let out a sigh while looking through the information, and the biggest contribution was none other than Donn! After Tang En got the news, he immediately rushed to the marquisate, almost all night to harass the army of the Grand Duke, a few counts just took the army to the marquisate circle, and then withdrew, and a few counts never appeared, the most annoying, naturally traitors, not only did they not help the marquis, but instead sent messengers to communicate with the nobles of the Grand Duke, the purpose was nothing more than to protect their position, as for the Marquis of Sayne, people have long been left behind.
If you have to use the two extremes of villain and gentleman to evaluate the Marquis of Sain, the Marquis of Sain should be regarded as a villain, and he is a real villain, he can gamble and pay, but after he pays, he hopes to be rewarded, silently dedicated, without regrets? Marquis of Sain will never be able to achieve and does not want to reach that state, grandma's ...... Lao Tzu trusts you and gives you the position of the county, and you will repay me like this? A few names have become dead in Sain's heart, and he will never let go of any traitor!
Those few counts who did not move could only forget it, and came out to walk around...... Give a little reward, at this moment, the Marquis of Sain is quite helpless, I can't imagine that his popularity is so bad, of course, this is also due to the pressure of the Grand Duke, if it is replaced by a certain bandit gang to attack the Marquis, those counts will definitely scramble to fight hard, because they know that the Marquis of Sain will definitely be the final victor.
How should Don be rewarded? Although they are all his own people, he should always give an explanation, as the supreme leader of the marquisate, he must be able to distinguish rewards and punishments.
The Marquis of Sain paced in the room, he was a little embarrassed, since he wanted to give, he had to give enough, enough, lest others say that he was stingy, but Sophia was the best choice for the future Grand Duke, would he be used to show his arrogance?
When the Marquis of Saine was worried about how to reward Donne, Don was sitting side by side with Anthony, not that Don had to stay here, but Isabel found Monroe and deliberately arranged it, and when Don found himself in a somewhat awkward position and was about to change places, the other seats were already filled by the powerhouses of Stantis City.
Dio and the others sat opposite Donne, led by Isabel, as well as Gordon and Raymond who had been squeezing their eyebrows there, so angry that Donne's teeth were itching, in fact, Donne's temper was very hot, Sophia didn't follow him at all in this regard, if there were no outsiders here, Don would have had a seizure.
And Anthony didn't feel anything, just quietly ate her own things, the man before, let her pay all her longing, after being injured, her heart window must be tightly closed, and it will not be easily opened.
After only half an hour, Anthony retired, looking at her face, it was difficult for others to keep her, and just as she walked out of the door, an old servant who was in charge of arranging the table and tableware and delivering the sundries raised his head and glanced in the direction of Vasily, the light in his eyes was gloomy and cold, but there were too many people in the hall, and Vasily, who was sitting on the first seat, did not notice this sight.
Anthony's reaction speed was noticeably slower than before, and although she had inadvertently caught the old servant's sight, she had not walked seven or eight paces before she frowned suspiciously.
