Chapter 13 The eldest lady and the eldest lady
The place where his case was tried was none other than the gathering place of the Francis family in the city, a large mansion. The family is not called casually, first of all, you have to have money, and this money must have the title of the industrial chain, and ordinary businessmen are a little worse. Most of the industrial chain here is handicraft, similar to factory owners, who can support hundreds or thousands or more of workers. Secondly, there must be power - with money and workers, they will naturally have their own forces and spheres of influence, and those who protect this huge sphere of influence are even larger armies and guilds.
Therefore, when a family grows big, it is basically the same as a country. It's just that it's much smaller - the family has its own rules and army, and after receiving the king's pardon, it basically disobeys the city lord. - In fact, it was the king who made trouble for the city lord and made all sides fall against each other.
Ordinary houses Cybertron has seen, and the smaller ones are a house with a small courtyard. The larger ones may be better, and the two two-story houses have a small courtyard under them, so that the windows do not face the road, and they have their own thatched houses. After all, after hundreds of years of epidemics, Silly 13 should be a little self-conscious. (The earth plane doesn't seem to have this realization)
The larger ones are similar to the gathering place of chicken workers where Cybertron used to live for a few days. It was really a big mansion that could be described as atmospheric. Cybertron is even more than that, with a wooden gate thirty centimeters thick. Cybertron knew at a glance that it was definitely not an ornament or a nice look, it was simply the gate of a military walled city. And the wall is indeed built with the effect of a city wall, which is quite defensive.
Of course, perhaps more attention should be paid to aesthetics, and the floor area should look like it should be about 3,000 square meters. It's nothing if it's on the outskirts of the city, but in the middle of the city, which covers an area of 3,000 square meters, Cybertron felt for a moment that whether it was Earth or this other world, whether it was science or magic, ancient or modern, the class division would never change. A status symbol is just that little thing.
Walk through the cloister and past a garden. There is not much grass and trees in the winter, but it is still cleaned and organized. Cybertron sat by a spring in the atrium and felt a lot of emotion.
First: where the sewer system is not developed, there is a spring here - really rich people.
Second: Those little maids, male waiters, etc., can you stop staring at yourself if it's okay?
What does it mean to be in a group on the sidelines?
"Ah...... Ha. With a yawn, Cybertron's nerves relaxed slightly. To be honest, I haven't slept well yet, the combat race can fight for a long time without sleep for three days, but it must also sleep well for a few days and nights after such a high-intensity battle, and then eat dozens of kilograms to replenish the body. I didn't eat much in the morning, I only swallowed two or three catties of bread and four or five catties of barbecue, which was only half full, how could I eat enough?
So he was going to take a break, so he leaned against a marble pillar with his shoulders crossed. Regardless of the temperature outside, he became drowsy—there must not be an attack here, did he? Aren't the people of the House of Francis eating dry food......
"Huh? It's you!!——"
With an elite scream, Cybertron instantly became energetic. He instinctively sensed something flying towards him, and threw a punch at it. A flying enamel bottle shattered with a thud.
In front of him, he keenly found the attacker.
A little girl with pink hair is looking at herself with the eyes of her father's killer. The violently undulating chest swayed up and down with choking, but unfortunately due to the key problem of the figure, there was no feeling of [chest surge] at all. Look...... The other party's age is only twelve or thirteen years old. As a normal social person, Cybertron also found the feeling of a few days ago in the [civilized] society. At first glance, it is what the other party is wearing, which proves the other party's financial resources and identity. The second glance is to look at the temperament of the person, maybe there is that kind of old dragon lying on the beach. And the girl on the other side looked at herself and choked, and the anger in her eyes was definitely not looking at others.
“...... I said, "Am I unlucky to be home today?" Cybertron put his guarded two-handed sword back on the ground. With two bangs, two insignificant potholes were smashed on the marble floor: "I was attacked by a master in the morning, and now I am attacked by a child I don't know...... Why are you here to duel?"
To be honest, if it was a barbarian on the other side who had been stabbed with a thousand knives, then Cybertron would have thrown a weapon and stabbed the opponent in the stomach. But...... Looks determine fate, and this unbreakable truth is universal. At this moment, Cybertron looked at the other person's appearance and didn't make a move—she was a cute girl. It's called a beautiful and delicate one, but it may be too delicate, so it's a little small...... A small face, a small head, a small body, a qiē are all small.
Lori.
Adolescence in the tribe is terrible, and you can only see all kinds of royal sisters or fierce royal sisters in the store. Obviously they are barbarians, and all the men look so good that they have been shot with a thousand knives for five minutes. Why did all the women inherit the genes of the Valkyrie and look not bad? After more than ten years, he has been changed from a philanthropist to a royal sister - impossible? It would be good that he didn't become a.
"Barbarian, watch your tone!" a male attendant immediately took a step forward, feeling a little humiliated by the lord's death. It's a pity that when it comes to him, it's no different from a dog's legs: "The eldest lady of the Francis family standing in front of you is the eldest lady of the Francis family, if you don't want to cause trouble, be careful!"
"...... "What should I do if my anger suddenly increases?" "What if I want to kill you now?"
Cybertron took a step forward, and the strong killing intent gathered on the male waiter opposite: "Do you choose a way to die, is it a waist chop, or a vertical chop?" I recommend beheading, so that the intestines will not flow everywhere, and it is easy to clean ......."
Cybertron took a total of three steps forward, and the male waiter ran behind the eldest lady in a trembling state - it wasn't necessarily the use of such a murderous thing, but a one-meter-six man carrying two one-meter-six two-handed giant swords to move forward step by step, and nine and a half of the ten people had to walk backwards - the remaining half of them were split open and didn't leave.
"What are you going to do? Barbarian-" What the hell is the eldest lady, Cybertron's eyes are very sincere when he wants to cut people. But her arrogant gaze was more sincere: "I heard that you are a retainer of our family?—— why don't you hurry up and let me kneel down for me when I see the head of the family?"
“...... Who are you, do I know you?" Cybertron didn't understand: "I'm a contractor, not a regular worker. Bear children want to play the king game remember to go home and go. ”
"You, you...... You don't know me?" and all of a sudden, it seemed like a blow.
"......, who are you?"
"I ......" didn't come up in one breath: "I was the ...... you humiliated that day"
"Stop! I'm not a ten-year-old girl in my life. "This is a bit of a big crime, I really have to be shot for five minutes and break my third leg.
"......?!?!I'm thirteen years old!" the girl's hands kept waving in the air, but she leaned forward to argue with Cybertron: "Long-winded—— I was the one who was bullied by you in the Gnoll prison that day—— I was the one!"
“...... Oh......" Cybertron suddenly remembered yesterday's incident, no wonder he still looked sick and crooked: "It turned out to be you...... What's the matter? I've saved you—the reward you promised?"
"......??!! you bully me so much, and you still want me to give you a reward......?! Hmph, I'm a nobleman, and it's not uncommon to see you. Looking up, the girl snorted on her toes. But at that moment, she twisted her neck again, lowered her head, gritted her teeth like an addict quitting drugs, and bowed her head to Cybertron: "Again, I am a nobleman, of course thank you, noble adventurer—thank you for saving me." ”
...... "This girl is a bit too much?—— how can ......you have a dual personality?" Forget it. In that case, I don't care if you just threw a vase over. Dual personality schizophrenia?—— not to mention, some people wear perfume, I can smell the scum from each other - yours is not bad, quite fragrant. ”
"......?!? Deng's disciple ——"
- Bullying little girls -
The Francis family looked like the sky was in full swing, and their faces were full of red. But in fact, there is a feeling of dry bones in the urn and the end of the strong crossbow.
Similarly, the largest family in Canafeng is the Francis family, with an annual income of 200,000 Quinterantas and a total income of about 300,000 Quentantas. The profit is about twenty percent, but ......
The tunnels dug in other villages are also good -- you can earn 300,000 yuan, and two families can earn more than 400,000 yuan together! Of course, the most terrifying thing is not the external joint competition, but the internal division. Of course, who doesn't have a three-parent and four cares? Tiansha Lone Star will only appear in the first chapter, and the second chapter will guarantee that there will be beautiful women who will snatch their heads and become naturalized as juniors.
The poor man plays ten steel hooks on the cross street, but he can't hook the flesh and blood of his relatives. The rich people use knives, guns and sticks in the deep mountains and old forests, and they can't break up the unrighteous guests and friends. That's how people are, every year there will be a few [illegitimate children] who suddenly pop up. Some are good to send a few gold coins and roll, while others are said to have noses and eyes. These are small things, and those real relatives are the most terrible.
Alice Phil Francis. The rightful owner of the Francis family, after the death of his husband, inherited a large family fortune and an entire business—and then was disobeyed by all kinds of yang and yin.
"I am your husband's second uncle, and your husband has no right to order me while he is alive. You are the oldest?—— although I didn't say it, but the twenty acres of land in the east of the village belong to me, which your husband personally promised me, and it is useless if you don't agree."
What do you say about this situation? One by one, they are timid in public war, brave in private fighting, and value their own selfishness over their own selfishness. These pig teammates can't be brought together......
Alice Phil is twenty-six years old this year, and five years ago, her husband killed too many people and did too many bad things behind his back, and he fell to his knees with the plague. That's right, Alice Phil was 13 years old when she got married, and her husband was about the same age — just 31.
Although it belongs to a family marriage, there is not much affection in it. But as a wife, she was not afraid of any plague. In the last days of her life, she stayed with her husband, who was barely at home. Because he is over twenty years old and already old (the eccentric aesthetics of the otherworldly classical era), the husband is more nostalgic for the teenage young girl (chick) mother (chicken) outside. Maybe it's the favor of the Holy Light, maybe it's the providence of God, and those who shouldn't die will never die. Under the attack of the plague of the undead, Alice Phil had close contact with her husband, personally helping him take medicine, change the water and even dispose of waste, but she did not appear to be infected at all. The medical officer of the temple thought it was incredible—
In the last period, she was the one who exercised the family rights on behalf of her, and reviewed orders and decisions. After about three months, maybe it's the conscience that finds it, maybe it's the dying of the person's words and the good. In short, her husband, who saw clearly the warmth of human affection and the cold world, kept his last tears. Under the impartiality of the priest of the Chapel of the Holy Light (reluctantly), the position of the next heir of the family was handed over to Alice Field, and all kinds of property, real estate, shares, etc., were transferred to Alice Field's name.
When her husband knelt down, a group of relatives jumped out and wanted to divide the property—and then it was time to test their abilities. Alice Phil, known as the "Holy Maiden of Canaphon", has spent five years from a crumbling family business to a good foundation and has integrated the family to the point where she is in harmony.
That's pretty good.
If the husband is difficult to peace, things are also. The most miserable people in the world......
"Hmm...... Uh-huh, I see. "I put down my financial report for the quarter, as well as a letter about the swift resolution of the Jackals at Farm No. 16. Alice Phil sat behind the desk and frowned slightly.
The slender waist-length silver hair was behind his back, slightly messy and drooping because of the desk. Stroking her hair behind her head, she sighed, "How is that Shadow Priest now?"
"Reply-" bowed respectfully, the black hand bowed his head, and said, "Now he is being treated, and our people are holding him." ”
"Follow the rules, this matter is sentenced to a duel. Since it's a duel, leave it to the mercenary named Cybertron to settle it. If he was an evil necromancer...... Forget it, don't alarm the Chapel of Light. Otherwise, it's a big expense, so let's find our own priest or paladin...... It's all right, go down then, I'm going to keep going...... Wait?" Suddenly, Alice Field's red eyes flickered, and she saw the same name appear on a small roll of paper: "Well, what's that person's name?"
"Cybertron - oh, like me, my people-" The Black Hand put aside his half-blood matter first, and took out a tone of the eldest brother introducing the younger brother, introducing the son of the chieftain who was n rank higher than him among the Bourkeso, "Also a Bourkeso, well, a warrior who looks very strong." ”
“...... Although reluctant to say so, although long live peace. However, the more powerful mercenaries there are now, the better - there is no way to go in a vicious circle, too much financial resources in the family have become a deterrent, and the continuous development has encountered a bottleneck due to insufficient funds. "There are a lot of words that the black hand doesn't understand, but the black hand is quite admiring and even a little longing for this beautiful and beautiful housewife—or the hostess.
There is almost no one in the family who does not look forward to her, even her late husband's uncle "longs" for her—— if anyone can succeed in the position, he will be regarded as the boss of the Francis family.
"This is a Bourkeso...... Well, I'm looking forward to his strength. Alice Phil nodded and smiled at the Black Hand, "Mr. Black Hand, you are a good example. I have seen the loyalty of your Bulkeso people, and I have seen your excellent fighting skills and fighting qualities - thank you for all the work you have done for our family over the years. ”
"I'm at your service, my lady!" the black-faced red-necked feet pressed together, the two iron boots made a crisp clashing sound, and the plate armor on his body collided with each other as a heavy metallic sound - it represented his heart.
"Well, then...... And then there's the Bourkeso guy - he's alone...... If the report is correct, he alone dealt with forty-nine gnolls in one day, and traveled almost eighty kilometers on foot......" Frowning slightly, Alice Field's eyes rolled and exclaimed, "Eh, could it be that he was the one who saved Valivier......? Mr. Black Hand, I trust you very much—sue me, can you Burkeso really sit down to this point?"
The matter lies in this obsession of men, bragging in front of the women they love.13 Alice Phil asked about you Bulkesos, not Cybertron himself. So even the black hand went in with it-
"That'...... Of course!" Holding his neck and blowing it, the black palm said that although he couldn't do it, the other party asked the Burkeso: "You can rest assured that we are Burkesos! It's no problem to use us as a squadron! I've seen that kid, he's a pure Burkeso." ”
It can't be more pure, it's the family of Hell Roar, the direct bloodline of the Immortal King's own family.
"Well, that's really exciting. Thank you, Mr. Black Hand. In any case, Alice Field, who was already the mother of the child, was now only twenty-six years old. The charming young woman smiled cutely: "Let's go, let's go meet the hero who saved my daughter—alas, but then again, little Valivier is really getting more and more naughty! If it weren't for him this time...... She was captured by the gnolls! There seems to be something wrong with her education......"
The table was pushed, and a maid behind her hurriedly walked over and took the chair under her so that she could come out. Alice Phil moved her muscles a little, stretched sweetly—but immediately heard a cacophony of quarrels and the clashing of utensils outside.
"...... what's the sound?"
"Uh...... Madame, yes...... It's ......" A reported waiter happened to run in from outside: "Yes...... Miss, being with the wild ...... outside Mercenaries quarrel. ”
The waiter opened his mouth and wanted to say a barbarian, but when he saw that the captain of the family's [Barbarian] was also there, he swallowed the second half of the sentence and almost bit his tongue.
"What's the noise?"
“...... The young lady said that the mercenaries bullied her and insulted her. But he thanked and apologized to the mercenary, saying that he was very happy...... "The male waiter doesn't understand what's going on, and the eldest lady never apologizes in her heart......?"
"Well, take me around!!What's wrong with my little Valivier......? Hey, hey, don't tease me!", said the surviving man, who usually looked gentle and demure and generous, rushed out with amazing momentum.
"Mrs. !——."
