Chapter 407: Fairly
Everyone turned their heads to look at a girl who came out of the door, and they were all slightly surprised.
"This girl who came out can't be the daughter of the patriarch of the Osedon family, right?" Ryan also looked at the girl carefully, she was not tall, she was a little thin, she was wearing a white swordsman suit, but she had no armor and sword equipment on her body. The girl's face is delicate, under the thin eyebrows, her eyes are small, slightly squinted, like a weak and beautiful girl, and she can't do what ordinary swordsmen like to do when they fight on weekdays. The girl seemed to have a slight sweat on her forehead, and looking at her appearance, it seemed that she was just in the process of cultivation, and was attracted by the sound of quarrels.
"Wouldn't it? This girl, who looks weak, even has to practice fighting qi sword skills. Seeing that she is such a weak lady, she should stay at home and learn some painting and poetry, and she should not fight and kill. Ryan couldn't help but think to himself.
Indeed, there are many women in this continent who choose to become swordsmen, although there are some female swordsmen who have a stronger figure than male swordsmen, but most female swordsmen still have the unique characteristics of women, they should be beautiful or very beautiful, and they should be gentle or gentle. However, the female swordsman has cultivated more fighting qi sword skills, and her face will reveal some heroic spirit from time to time, which makes people feel the sharpness of a sword from her eyes at a glance. For example, Katisha is such a female swordsman, and her beautiful appearance contains a heroic spirit that fascinates Ryan.
But the girl in front of her is different, her appearance looks extremely weak, and more importantly. There was still infinite weakness in her eyes. People can't associate her with a swordsman at all, they can only feel that this is a noble lady, especially the quiet and elegant contained in the weak appearance.
"Miss Fieldly, no...... Nothing. "The butler, who is called Aberdeen, doesn't seem to want the girl to know about what is happening in front of her.
Sure enough, this girl was Philly, the daughter of the patriarch of the Osedon family. I saw her brow furrowed slightly, obviously knowing that Steward Aberdeen didn't want to tell her the truth.
At that moment, the thin man who came to collect the debt cried out, "Miss Fairly, you have come just in time. Your father owes my family 500 gold coins and has not paid it back, so hurry up and let your father come out and pay it back. ”
The thin man spoke aggressively. There was no respect for Fairly at all, as if she were a child.
Fairly's brow furrowed even more, and her face turned pale, and she didn't answer the thin man's words. Instead, he turned his head to look at another middle-aged man and said, "Uncle Sharp, is what he said true?" ”
Just now, Aberdeen Butler hid it from Fairly, so that Fairey didn't want to ask Aberdeen Butler, but instead asked Sharpe, the head of the guard.
The middle-aged Shapu didn't speak, still blushing, and after a while, he nodded slightly, which was considered to be acquiescence.
Immediately, Philley took a few steps forward. Looking at the thin man, he was not afraid of the other party at all, and said very calmly: "You said that my father owes your family gold coins, but there is an IOU?" ”
At this moment, Fairly's performance is completely different from her weak appearance, not sharp, but by no means cowardly.
Ryan's eyes lit up when he was watching the excitement, he had been worried that the people of the Osedon family were incompetent and cowardly, and now it didn't seem to be very bad.
Hear Fieldie's question. The thin man was stunned for a moment, then took out a small note the size of a palm from his pocket, walked a few steps forward, and unfolded it for Fieldy to see: "Look." This is the IOU that your father wrote three years ago. ”
The thin man took the IOU far away and didn't show it to Fairly. As if she was afraid that Fairly would rush over and destroy the evidence.
Obviously, the skinny man took care of himself and underestimated Fairly. Fairly didn't have the slightest thought, she looked intently, looked at the few words on the note, and frowned even more.
"How can you be sure that my father wrote it?" The handwriting on the IOU was a little blurry, and Fieldie, though she recognized it as if it was her father's, couldn't help but ask.
"Humph! You still want to deny it, and you don't believe that you called your father out and confronted me face to face. The thin man seemed to be unforgiving, and shouted loudly.
"No!" Fieldey blurted out, then hesitated and said, "My father is not feeling well and can't see you. ”
"I don't care, I'm going to get back the debt of five hundred gold coins no matter what."
Suddenly, a hint of anger appeared between Fairly's eyebrows, and she raised her voice and said, "Didn't my father borrow two hundred and fifty gold coins from you?" Why do you have to pay back 500 gold coins? ”
Unexpectedly, the thin man burst out laughing, as if he had heard a joke, and Philly laughed ashamedly and angrily. Then the thin man said mockingly: "I said, Miss Fairly, you haven't been out of the house, don't you know that you have to repay the interest when you borrow money outside?" ”
"But your interest is too much, and it has doubled all at once, and you have to repay five hundred gold coins when you borrow two hundred and fifty gold coins, and you have to pay back five hundred gold coins, you are too much!" Philley began to get angry, and she angrily scolded the other party, but it was clear that her words had no effect in the slightest.
"That's how the interest of my family is, who told your father not to pay back before? After so many years, it is necessary to repay so much interest. Besides, your father also agreed to this interest when he borrowed money before, and I don't believe you asked your father to come out and confront him. The thin man looked like a scoundrel, as if he had taken advantage of Fairly's reluctance to call her father out.
Immediately Fieldy didn't say a word, her face was blue, and she looked back at Steward Aberdeen and Leader Sharpe beside her, who also looked helpless.
"I'm sorry, we don't have gold now, we can't pay you back, you can come back later." Seeing Fairly's embarrassed appearance, Steward Aberdeen immediately stood up and said.
Very surprised, after hearing Auber's steward's prevarication, the thin man was not angry, but laughed happily, but his voice sounded a little gloomy: "Joke, this is really a joke, the famous Osedon family, a dignified earl's palace, can't even afford five hundred gold coins." ”
The shrill laughter suddenly made Philley and the others red-faced. Shapu, the leader of the guards, who had been silent, finally couldn't hold back his temper, waved the heavy sword in his hand, and shouted: "Kraft, don't go too far, tell you that there will be no gold coins if you don't have gold coins, you dare to entangle it any longer, be careful that I am not polite to you." ”
The skinny man Kraft was startled, but quickly recovered, he patted his chest, with a panicked expression, his body twisted around, and he roared like a heartbreak: "Scared me to death!" Killed! The Oseidon family owes money and doesn't pay it back, and it's going to kill people, everyone, come and see! Look at how domineering the Oseidon family is! ”
It is clear that Kraft is a scoundrel who is not intimidated at all, but is performing, as can be seen from his clumsy movements and words. No one stepped forward to hit him, and Kraft was just such a person, screaming and jumping, and his eyes were still looking at Ryan and the two from time to time, hoping that Ryan and Katisha, two outsiders who seemed obvious, would come forward to pay attention and put some pressure on the people of the Osedon family.
Ryan and Katisha couldn't help but wonder, it was the first time they had seen such a living treasure-like character. However, Ryan has no intention of intervening in the dispute between the two parties, he is trying to understand the situation of the Osedon family, and it is best to stand by and watch. As for Katisha, she is all about Ryan, Ryan has not acted, so she will naturally not act on her own.
Fieldey and the others didn't have the slightest mood to see the joke, all of them had fire in their eyes, and they wanted to kill the scoundrel in front of them immediately, but the several swordsmen brought by the other party were not inferior to them in number and strength.
"That's it! Don't make a fuss! We will pay you back. Fairly finally couldn't take it anymore and shouted.
Suddenly Kraft stopped shouting, and with a smile on his horse, he looked at Fairly and the others like victors. He changed his face so quickly and thickened his skin that it was unbelievable.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Fairly's words fell, the Aberdeen housekeeper beside her whispered, "Miss, we don't have enough gold coins for five hundred gold coins at all. ”
Philly's face did not change, she knew the situation of her family very well, dozens of gold coins could still be taken out, five hundred gold coins, for the current Ossedon family, it was a huge amount of money that could not be taken out. Fieldy nodded, signaling Aberdeen to know the situation, and then said to Kraft, "We need a little time to raise money, you come over in three days, and we will return the gold coins to you." ”
Unexpectedly, Kraft disagreed, but I saw him sarcastically unscrupulously: "What kind of money to raise?" Aren't you selling what you've inherited from your ancestors? ”
The so-called beating people does not slap the face, Kraft's sentence really slapped the face of the Osedon family, and slapped Philley and others hard. If it were another family, Kraft would not dare to say such a thing, and if he dared to say it, he might be beaten to death immediately. But the Osedon family is different, they are now in great decline, so even Kraft, who is just the butler of other families, does not take the Osedon family in the slightest, and dares to say such offensive words.
Fairly and the others were furious, and several young guards even drew their swords and stepped forward, wanting to teach Kraft a lesson.
Kraft hurriedly took a few steps back, flashing into the protection of several swordsmen, and then he roared again, "What's wrong? Do you want to kill again? ”
"Come back!" Fieldly, who was extremely pale, hurriedly called a few guards, stared at Kraft for a moment, and said, "Then what do you want?" ”
Fairly saw that this Kraft came to collect debts, not as simple as asking for gold coins, and must have other plans.
Sure enough, at this moment, Kraft no longer concealed his intentions, and said directly: "As long as you take out an ancestral vase to pay off the debt, we will leave immediately." (To be continued.) )
