After saying goodbye to his godfather, Felisto walked home.

On the street, he met a few acquaintances who greeted him cordially, and if these acquaintances had only avoided him in the past.

His home is located on the very edge of the town, a dilapidated clay tile house with six people crammed into two small rooms, including his wife, two children, and elderly parents.

Since Mussolini came to power, war has followed, making the already poor family even worse.

In order to survive, Felisto worked as a stevedore at the docks in Palermo, leaving his children and parents to his wife.

A few years ago, when his father was able to move, he repaired houses to earn some extra money, but unfortunately the good times did not last long, and his father fell from a height at work and broke his leg, and has been bedridden ever since.

And his mother's health was not good, and she couldn't do heavy work, so she had to do some knitting work at home.

When Felisto returned, he gave all the money he had saved to his wife, but she exchanged the money for medicine to treat his father's illness...

If it weren't for Oriyatu's help in the past two years, the family would have starved to death.

Some time ago, Oriyatu invited him to work at sea, and Felistto agreed without hesitation, followed him to the sea once, and got a thousand lila.

When he came back, he bought his wife beautiful clothes, and he was scolded by his wife, saying that he was spending money indiscriminately.

Sicilians are very family-oriented, and the concept of family is integrated into their bones, even when the photo is taken, it is not possible to do without any member of the family.

Moreover, Sicilians never considered themselves Italians.

Although Felisto did not go to sea this time, he did not get paid.

But he did something for his godfather, and he was promoted!

Is it just a promotion?

No!

There is also a cash payout.

After he killed Ottoby, he made the scene of Ottoby's death look like a burglary, and took all of Ottoby's accumulated wealth.

A full 43,000 lila!

Felisto wanted to meet the godfather and give it to him, but the godfather didn't even look at it, as if it had nothing to do with it.

He knew very well in his heart that this was a gift from the godfather.

From a crack in the wall, Felisto pulled out a square wrapped in newspaper, which contained more than 40,000 lira notes.

At the moment, he was very excited.

Because he didn't think the money was his own a few days ago, he didn't give it to his wife. Now, though, the money belongs to him!

With this money, his family no longer has to go hungry, and they can repair their dilapidated house and change his father's bicycle into a wheelchair!

He returned home and called his wife to an unoccupied warehouse.

"Look!"

The wife covered her mouth in shock, looking incredulous.

"Oh! Felisto, where did you get that? ”

"I did something for my boss, and it was rewarded to me by my boss."

"But, that's too much. Would your boss be so generous? ”

"Of course, you'll find out later. Now you need to plan how you want to spend it, because there will be a steady stream of money coming into your pocket in the future. ”

Wife: "But I'm just a peasant woman, and I don't know how to spend money." ”

"Please, you are my wife, our family is up to you! You can spend it however you want. ”

The wife rubbed her hands and said, "Then first build a wheelchair for my father, and then buy ten sheep... Mother sleeps in a creaky bed, how about we make a new bed? ”

"Otherwise, we will build a new house, one room for each child, so that we will have our own space and buy some clothes for our father and mother."

"It's expensive to build a house... We can buy clothes for our parents first, and most importantly, build a wheelchair for our father, who must be in a bad mood every day in bed. ”

Seeing this, Felisto hugged his wife with emotion, and revealed his true feelings: "You have suffered with me all these years. ”

"Why, I'm very happy."

Felisto is very grateful to Russell, because his appearance has allowed the poor families on the edge of the town to have enough to eat.

Now, too, he can make a good life for his parents, wife and children.

I can live like the residents of the town center, and I don't have to live a hard life of eating bran vegetables anymore.

And all this was given by the Godfather.

--

The surroundings of Marlena's house were quiet, and unlike before, no one dared to come to her house to try to see spring.

Today, Russell is wearing a suit designed and made for him by Marlena herself, and in order to match this suit, he deliberately chose a pair of handmade leather shoes.

Standing in front of Malena's house, she raised her hand and knocked.

It wasn't long before there was the sound of running in the house.

Open the door.

Marlena meets Russell in a suit.

In fact, Marlena is very scared these days.

Every night, I would think of what Russell said to her when he left.

'Don't worry, I'll take care of it. ’

The night after Russell left town, Ottoby died at home.

Although disguised as the scene of the theft, Marlena still thinks of Russell...

She hated herself for doubting him, but she couldn't avoid it.

Whenever she went out and heard the townspeople talking, she wanted to go up and argue with them, but she knew it didn't make much sense.

So Marlena locked herself in her room, and even though the food was not very sufficient, she still did not go out.

Doorway.

Russell saw that Marlena's face was not good, so he frowned and stared at her.

"Mr. Corleone, please come in."

Russell nodded and entered the house, put the chocolate down casually, and said, "Try Italian dark chocolate." ”

"Thank you, I... Just eaten. ”

Marlena closed the door and replied.

Russell sat on the couch admiring the curves of Marlena, who was dressed in a silk dress, like the kind of nightdress worn at home, and the sun shone on her with a charming glow.

"Look at your bad face, what's the matter?"

Marlena stood in place, her hands pulling at the corners of her clothes and seemed a little embarrassed, she bit her lip lightly, and said, "I, I'm fine." ”

The room was eerily quiet, and both could hear the two of them breathing.

Suddenly, a 'cooing' sound reached Russell's ears.

Marlena's body stiffened, and she looked up at Russell mechanically, and her face flushed.

"Yes, I'm sorry... I couldn't hold back. ”

Russell said with a straight face: "Are you hungry again these days? Why not go out and buy something to eat. ”

Marlena bowed her head and remained silent.

Russell got up and walked over, reached out and took her delicate jade hand, led her to the table, pressed her shoulders with both hands, and sat her down in the dining chair.

Open the chocolate box, take a piece out of it and hand it to her.

Marlena didn't move, quietly turning her face to the side.

Russell frowned a little incomprehensibly, looking at her as if she was messing with herself?

"Open your mouth and eat it. Then, I'm going to talk to you. ”

Marlena looked at the window and was about to open her mouth to speak, but Russell saw the opportunity and shoved the chocolate into her mouth.

"Hmm..."

Russell took Ottoby's purse from his suit pocket and threw it on the table.

"Are you having trouble with me because of Ottoby?"

Marlena looked at her purse and swallowed the chocolate in her mouth.

"No, no..."

"Then why don't you eat the food I brought you?"

Marlena blinked, "Didn't you say you were going to treat me to dinner." ”

I didn't expect Marlena to have such a cute side.

At this moment, Russell was stunned.

It turned out to be a misunderstanding.

"Malena!"

Russell shouted her name solemnly.

"I, what's wrong with me?"

"You don't wait for my dinner every day hungry, do you?"

Hearing this, Marlena lowered her head, shook her head, and said, "No, no." ”

"Lie!"

Marlena's head hung lower.

Russell handed her another piece, "Do you want me to feed you?" ”
