(Recently, I've been tinkering with the script killing, and my energy is more scattered, and I'm going to temporarily degenerate into a more beast (′?_?'))

After Solandelle finished speaking, she felt that she had almost rested, wiped her sweat with the back of her hand, and was about to continue loosening the soil, when she suddenly heard the sound of farm tools falling from behind her.

Immediately after, Maggie's broken cries rang out.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!! Maggie cried incoherently, sobbing and despairing, "Your Highness! I don't know what I've done wrong, but I'm really sorry! Please give me another chance, Your Highness! Punish me however you want! Please don't drive me away! ”

Solandale was directly stunned: "Huh? I didn't say I'm going to get rid of you. ”

Maggie fell to her knees with a thud, kowtowed desperately, and knocked her forehead into a bruise, as if to punish herself, her voice became hoarse from crying: "Please punish me, Your Highness, please punish me severely!" It's good to whip me, it's good to burn me with a soldering iron, and I'll never burn out again! I... I only slept 3 hours a day after that... No... I'm not sleeping! I will be awake 24 hours a day, and I will continue to work for you until the day I die, please don't drive me away, woo..."

Looking at Maggie, who broke down and cried, and even began to slap herself, Solandelle was very confused at first, and she didn't know what was going on, so she suddenly cried.

Solandelle was at a loss and looked around until she saw the farm tool in her hand, and then saw the farm tool that fell next to Maggie, and then she suddenly reacted...

She scared Maggie...

What is a slave? According to the principles of the Code, a slave is an animal, like a loyal dog kept in the house, to obey all the orders of the master, to undertake all the chores of the master, and the whole purpose of their existence is to serve the master.

For slaves, the master's reward, punishment, and even abuse are a top-down gift, and their greatest glory is to serve their master until their own death.

Slaves who served only one master throughout their lives were seen as role models among slaves and were praised by troubadours for their faithfulness.

And those slaves who were driven away by their masters were not even ashamed of their own kind.

With so many slaves in Doguland, Maggie was one of the most fortunate ones, because it was the highest honor for slaves to be able to serve the noble royal family.

But no matter who she served, she couldn't change her status as a slave.

For the slave, the punishment is not terrible, the master did not slaughter you, but only punished you, indicating that there is still a place to use you in the future, and the punishment is just to make you remember this mistake for a long time, and it is good to remember it in the future.

What slaves fear most is not punishment, but idleness and nothing to do.

If one day, the master no longer lets you work, it is not because she cares for you, but it means that she no longer has you in her heart, and the only thing waiting for you is to expel ... Or slaughtered.

Therefore, busyness and fatigue are the worries of slaves, and the busier it is, the greater the effect, the more it is needed by the master, and the less likely it is to be expelled or slaughtered.

Conversely, the more idle it is, the more dangerous it is.

Idleness alone can make a slave tremble, and it is even more terrifying to snatch the slave's work and do it herself, as Solandel is doing now.

And those that follow the remarks about "pay" and "gain"... Slaves are animals, so how can animals own their belongings? Whoever gives should be reaped? Isn't this a direct disobedience to the will of the Sun King?

Those words were completely beyond Maggie's understanding as a slave, just like an uncivilized primitive man facing the rolling thunder, she would not know that it was a very normal natural phenomenon, she would only think that the gods above the sky were angry, and she bowed her head to the ground in fear.

Solandelle's original intention is actually not that complicated, that is, it is very simple to think that Maggie sweats and deserves the fruits of her harvest.

For example, these apple trees, which ones are planted by Maggie, and the fruit that bears them later belongs to Maggie, and which ones are planted by herself, and the fruit that bears them later belongs to herself. That's fair.

But it is such a simple and clear truth, which Maggie cannot understand, thousands of years ago, the will of the "chief of the gods" Sun King continues to this day, turning into an unbreakable shackle that imprisons the slaves, making them reduced to animals without the idea of resistance and dare not transgress.

Solandale looked down at the strip of rag tied around her wrist, and seemed to see the little girl who smiled in the early morning, but died at dusk.

Hitherto... I don't know her name yet...

Solandale stepped forward quickly, hugged Maggie tightly into her arms, and whispered softly, "Shhhh It's okay, Maggie isn't afraid, I'm not going to get rid of you. ”

Maggie was sweating profusely and crying, her voice trembling with her body: "I'm sorry... I will definitely work hard in the future... I'll never make a mistake again..."

Looking at Maggie like this, Solandelle felt extremely sad in her heart, she held back the sourness that rose, and said softly: "Oh, I was joking with you before, I didn't want to rob you of your job, I just stayed in the room for a long time, I was really idle, I just wanted to come out and move." ”

Maggie's trembling cries gradually stopped, and she looked at Solandelle blankly.

Solandale deliberately showed a mischievous smile and stuck out her tongue: "I'm really sorry that you misunderstood, please continue to take care of these apple trees in the future, I'm still waiting to pick the fruit." ”

Maggie's eyes were dazed, and she sat down on the ground as if relieved, and quickly got up again, wiped the tears from her face, lowered her head and trembled, "I'm sorry... I didn't realize it was a joke about Her Royal Highness the Princess, I was so stupid... I'm sorry..."

Solandale was just about to say something, when an exclamation suddenly came from the side: "Solan, what are you doing?!" ”

Queen Catherine hurried over and tried to grab Solandelle's hand, but she was so disgusted by the dirty dirt on it that she didn't touch her, and asked with wide eyes, "Are you rolling in the mud?!" ”

Facing Catherine, who has a more stern personality, Maggie is so frightened that her waist is almost ninety degrees, and she mutters sorry in her mouth.

Solandelle hurriedly explained: "I, I've been in the room for too long, and I want to come out to do something, so I took farm tools to loosen the soil for the apple tree. ”

Catherine was even more stunned, and her tone was harsh: "The gods are above, loosening the soil and irrigating it is the work of slaves, you are a royal princess!" Ladylike! How can you touch something as dirty as farm tools?! ”

"Look at yourself, like a dirty little wild cat! Your father would be furious when he saw you like that! ”

Catherine sighed heavily as she spoke, and turned to Maggie and scolded, "What are you still standing?" Hurry up and prepare hot water for the bath, Your Majesty wants to see her daughter, and you must let her clean up. ”

Maggie hurriedly said yes and hurried to the mansion.

Solandelle looked at Maggie's departing back, her eyes were extremely complicated, she pursed her lips tightly, and all her thoughts finally turned into a faint sigh.
