"Removal is removal of the name! I could have gone and joined a bigger church! ”

In the living room, Lady Maggie hugged Pipsqueak, who was whimpering, and cried out, "What a truth, but some deceitful trick!" ”

Jacob clenched his fists and glared at her, his teeth crunching.

That's when ....

Suddenly, a man's voice came from upstairs.

"Maggie, who are you arguing with again?"

With the creak of the stairs, a man in a crisp suit walked into the living room, a well-cut vest and shirt gently attached to his body, and a delicate mustache curled slightly, looking like a gentleman walking on the streets of a wealthy area.

"Gilbert, it's none of your business!" Lady Maggie exclaimed.

The man named Gilbert glanced at the living room, and finally his eyes fell on Pippi, and suddenly grinned: "Even if you don't say it, I'll hear it almost upstairs.... Maggie, it's just a dog, there's no need to have such a big conflict with the neighbors over it, I advised you before, don't keep it around. ”

"Mr. Jacob, it's a pleasure to meet you, despicable Gilbert Wilkin, the brother of Maggie's deceased husband."

Gilbert stretched out his hand and shook hands with Jacob: "Actually, I have always supported you, as a pioneer on the road of love, you are very respectable. ”

"Ahh Well, thanks. ”

Jacob, who couldn't figure out what was going on, nodded, he was in a mess and couldn't really say anything.

"This is my business card, if there is a chance, we can work together."

Gilbert handed the business card to everyone in the living room, and even Unia got one.

[Ross Marine Industries, Inc., Gilbert Wilkin, 72 Ross Avenue]

A simple business card has only the company name, name, and mailing address, and nothing else.

But....

Mavi had heard of Ross Sea, a company that had worked with Gray Wolf Dino, and after the declaration of naval warfare three years ago, merchant ships from all over the world that were not threatened by privateers ushered in a golden age, and Ross Maritime was also one of the beneficiaries.

If it had been placed three years ago, once this kind of fat sheep was targeted by privateers, it would never have been able to escape.

Putting away their business cards, Mavi and the others left Madame Maggie's house, and the negotiations broke down, and there was no need for them to stay.

Back at the door, Jacob's face was gloomy, his cheeks twitching, and he was clearly angry to the extreme.

"Father, what shall we do now?"

He asked, "It seems that Maggie Chrissy is not going to give up Miss Maggie to me, and she will have to find another way." ”

"I... There is indeed a way. ”

"Really?!" Jacob's eyes suddenly lit up: "What way?" Father, speak quickly! ”

"At the end of the day, Lady Maggie's reluctance to give up Pipsqueak is motivated by profit."

Mavi took off her hat, dusted it off, and put it back on: "For her, Pippi is an excellent tool for contact with high society, and Miss Maggie, who has lost her husband, needs to find a reliable husband if she wants to stop worrying about the rest of her life, and it is obvious that she has hit the heads of those gentry and nobles." ”

"You're right...," Jacob said thoughtfully, "she does think so, and the whole South Street knows her little care!" Relying on a bit of posture, she dresses herself up every night, and then runs to other people's balls to socialize, if any noble lord can look down on her, she is absolutely blind! ”

"Speaking of which..."

Suddenly, Mavi remembered the newspaper he had read at noon: "I read in the newspaper that Madame Maggie was recruiting tenants recently, and didn't she have a man living in her house before?" ”

"You're talking about Giuseppe Díaz, the pharmacist!" Jacob replied, "He did rent a house with Maggie Chriss, but just yesterday, Maggie Chrissy didn't know what was going on and kicked them out!" What a big joke, you must know that Giuseppe Apothecary has never paid rent late, where to find such a good tenant! ”

"Well, let's get back to the point, my method is very simple, since Maggie Chrissy wants to rely on Pippi to get acquainted with nobles and gentry, then you might as well take advantage of this, buy a Yorkshire Terrier, train it well, and then enter the ball, vigorously promote your dog, and after attracting the attention of the nobles and gentry, use it to make an exchange with Lady Maggie.... It's called using magic to defeat magic. ”

"Oh.... I thought you were talking about something...."

Jacob lowered his head and sighed: "I've thought about this method before, but I'm different from Maggie Chrissy, I have no identity, and I have no background, I'm just a brewer in a small workshop, and I can't even enter the door of the ball, how can I sell dogs?" ”

"You can't get in, someone can get in."

"Huh?" Jacob looked up sharply: "Father, what do you mean..."

"All you have to do is buy a Yorkshire Terrier and come back, and I'll take care of the rest."

"Priest...."

Jacob looked at the man in front of him with some emotion, and said incoherently, "I... I'm just an ordinary worker, I can't create any value for the church, why are you..."

"People, you must keep your promises."

Ma Wei whistled and beckoned a carriage: "You have proven that you and Miss Maggie are in love, then it is my responsibility to clear the obstacles for you when I take over this commission, this is my principle, it has nothing to do with value, and..."

Mavi picked Yunia into the carriage, sat down and said, "Mr. Jacob, you really should quit drinking, please don't forget the vows you made in the church, people who break their vows at will cannot be trusted." ”

In the cold wind, Jacob stared blankly at the figure of the carriage in the distance, suddenly took off his soft hat, pressed it firmly on his chest, and bowed deeply:

"From now on, I, Jacob Valentine, will not drink a drop of alcohol.... Truth comes first. ”

.............................

"Dad, why did Pipsqueak choose Mr. Jacob over Lady Maggie?"

On the carriage to Ross Boulevard, Yunia asked, "Lady Maggie is its owner..."

"A master is not necessarily good, just as some people don't deserve to be parents."

While petting Xiao Hei, Mavi said: "In the eyes of Lady Maggie, Pippi is a dog, but also a dog, it has a clear hierarchy with its owner, and in the eyes of Mr. Jacob, Pippi is not just a dog, he respects each other, loves each other, and is willing to treat each other as an equal existence with himself, which is the last straw that overwhelms Pippi." ”

"After seeing the light, you can't tolerate the darkness anymore."
