Chapter 209: This Is a Witch You Can't Mess With! (3/4)
A delicate and gorgeous lily estate.
In the hall, Vivien looked at her husband, who was slumped in a chair, and sighed softly.
"He was very handsome when he was younger, and I used to like him a lot, and the other thing I liked so much was probably an edelweiss cat I had when I was a child."
"Unfortunately, the cat died of old age when I was sixteen."
"I used to think I could go with him to the end of my life. Unfortunately, he let me down so much. ”
Rosen asked, "Is it because of those paintings?" ”
"Partly yes, but mostly because of his distrust of me. You know, when you have a lot of mana, you will be very sensitive to all kinds of peeps. ”
Rosen understood.
"And then, you sensed Mr. Rust's suspicion of you, and you put on a scene to make him think that you were really out of the wall?"
"Yes, I also deliberately left all kinds of details to prove my innocence, and as a result, he couldn't see anything, completely carried away by jealousy, and was bent on believing that I was having an affair with Heidenner."
"I've lived with him for fifteen years, and he doesn't know me at all, and even thinks I'm going to look at a straw bale like Hydner."
"This is a great humiliation to me!"
"For the first time, I also found out that the man I once loved was so stupid that he couldn't even compare to that Edelweiss!"
Rosen thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because your mana is getting stronger and stronger, and your knowledge has been growing, and your husband is your pet in captivity, so he has been standing still. ”
Vivien was stunned.
After a long time, she nodded slightly: "Master Rosen, what you said is right, maybe that's why it's because of this." ”
Her gaze turned back to Mr. Rust, and her disgust was much less, and there was more pity.
After looking at it for a while, she slowly shook her head: "I can't live with him anymore." Master Rosen, what do you recommend? ”
"I don't want to interfere in your family affairs, Lady Vivien."
"But you have interfered, and you have even indiscriminately arranged for me to make peace with other men, and this has greatly damaged my reputation!"
Vivien's emotions were slightly excited, and the vigorous mana in her body was suddenly a little uncontrollable, so a wisp of ice blue shimmered in her dark blue eyes.
The appearance of this glimmer of light made Rosen's heart sink.
He knew that he had to deal with things today, otherwise there would be trouble, and there would definitely be all kinds of unexpected troubles in the future.
Because he felt that Vivien might not know how to spell, but she definitely mastered other special abilities, otherwise it would be impossible to be favored by the family by relying on mana alone.
What makes him even more awe-inspiring is that this woman is meticulous about details, has great self-control, and can easily achieve high achievements in the field she delves into.
If such a person becomes an enemy and takes him seriously, it is very likely that he will be sent to the kingdom of God sooner.
Thinking that he was indeed at a loss, he said, "It's better to be like this." I take back my painting and refund your painting money. ”
"No, I've ruined all those paintings."
Seeing that Vivien insisted on making her own decision, Lawson no longer refused.
"After all, you are the husband and wife witnessed by the Golden God, since it is difficult to forgive, it is better to separate."
"Give Mr. Rust a decent compensation, say 1,000 crowns a year, which is stress-free for you, but will get rid of him completely."
"1000 CZK no, I'm only willing to give him 500 CZK."
"That's fine, whatever you want."
Vivien nodded and shouted, "Lowe~Lowe~ come in, move Rust out, put it in the wagon, and send it to Fanggu Town." ”
"When he wakes up, tell him that I will give him 500 crowns a year until he dies."
"And if he doesn't want to die early, never bother me."
Butler Lowe replied happily: "Yes, ma'am!" ”
He quickly moved Rust away.
Mrs. Rust then pointed down Mr. Rust's seat.
"Master Rosen, sit down, or you can pull up another chair. Forget it, I'll pull one for you. ”
With her words, Rust's chair retreated to the wall, and a new chair came to the table.
"The Mage's Hand, one of my favorite tricks, and certainly the only one."
Lawson looked at the new chair and felt weird, a feeling of being used as a replacement.
But he had come to win allies, so he sat down in his chair and smiled, "Lady Vivien, I think you must have guessed what I was here for." ”
Vivien nodded, "You want me to convince my brother to support Shabolai, right?" ”
"Looks like Lady Vivien is very well-informed."
"I'm not well-informed, in fact, I don't waste time and energy paying attention to it unless it's the information I need."
"But you made too much noise yesterday, I guessed it after a little thought."
After speaking, she stared at Rosen: "As long as you meet one of my requests, I will help you convince my brother. Note that it's for you, not for Shabol. ”
As soon as Rosen heard this, he looked at the other party's eyes again, and immediately knew that something was going to be bad.
But if he refuses, then the alliance Fanggu Town will be completely useless, even if the baron intends to support Xia Bolai, I am afraid that he will be disturbed by this strange girl with an amazing idea.
Sure enough, Vivien took the fork in her hand and ordered the lamb chops on the table, smiling softly.
"I told you I had a dream, and you helped me make it happen."
"But I don't think it's enough, and now the opportunity is right now. So, my condition is to help me realize my dream in reality. ”
Rosen was mentally prepared, and when he saw the other party's elegant question, he didn't feel embarrassed.
After thinking about it, I asked, "How many times are you going to dream?" ”
Vivien smiled, "It's easy to talk to a wise man like you." ”
"I don't have any children, but I'm very much looking forward to having one."
After a pause, she said, "So, my dream will be until I have a child." ”
Lawson also knocked on the table with a fork and reminded him in a condensed voice.
"Madam, please note that I am a mage, and although you don't learn spells, you have a lot of mana, and you can be considered a mage. We can't have results. ”
Therefore, what Vivien meant by this was about the same as asking Lawson to stay with her until she was not interested in men.
Who can stand this?
"I know."
Vivien smiled lightly: "I didn't think I would have a child, but I wasn't reconciled, so I went to the temple and asked the gods." ”
"At first, God may have been too busy to answer me. But a year ago, I suddenly realized God's intentions, so I donated 5,000 kroner to the temple, and God answered me. ”
"The shaman gave me a bottle of special bloodline potion."
"I don't know exactly how the potion works, but the shaman promised that after taking the medicine, at most twenty times, there will be a child."
"I wanted to give Rust one so that he could continue the family lineage, but he disappointed me greatly."
Speaking of this, she looked at Rosen: "As long as you agree to help me make my wish come true, I will help you convince my brother, and I will give you ten thousand crowns as a reward." ”
Rosen spread his hands: "If you just want to have a child, then it doesn't have to be me, you can change it, for example, Xia Bolai must be very willing." ”
Vivien shook her head without hesitation.
"Shabolay is so stupid and ugly, I don't want my child to be an idiot, and you do exactly what I want, no, much better than I expected."
"If our children can inherit half of your mind, then I will be satisfied."
Rosen saw that this woman knew very well what she wanted, and there was no room for bargaining at all.
He either said yes or he refused, there was no third option.
Rosen sighed lightly, feeling like he was being forcibly adopted by a rich woman.
So, do you want to agree?
Rosen weighed the pros and cons.
First of all, he and the Earl have already negotiated, and the Count has already made a promise, so she will definitely use all means to fulfill the promise.
Even if he didn't have much to do, her decision would surely be passed by the Council of Lords, except how much the Count would have paid.
If he helps out a lot of things and makes Fang Gu Town agree to support Xia Bolai in advance, then the earl will be able to save a lot of bargaining chips in exchange.
And the woman in front of her is unfathomable, and her current self is a little unprovoked, and the wisest way is to stay away from her.
Vivien's voice rang out, "Master Lawson, do you want to refuse?" ”
Lawson was stunned, but he was not surprised, because the mage with powerful mana was already very keen.
He nodded directly: "I don't want to be too troublesome." ”
Vivien smiled faintly, "It seems that I didn't give enough chips, or maybe you didn't know me well enough." ”
She picked up her glass and gently shook the turquoise fruit wine in it.
"I'll just introduce myself in detail."
"Actually, I have a lot of skills. Horticulturist, alchemist, wine taster, and self-confessed mathematician. ”
"Sounds weird, doesn't it?"
Rosen nodded slightly.
Vivien took a sip of wine, and under the moisturization of the wine, her lips became more and more crystal clear, and a hint of light appeared on her snow-white cheeks.
"But as long as you think about it, you will find that these professions are especially good for passing time, and as a noble woman who does not worry about income and has nothing to do, the most is time, isn't it?"
Rosen nodded in agreement: "You're right. ”
Once a person is truly carefree, he will either degenerate into an apostle of desire, or he will begin to pursue high-class pleasures.
Vivien is the latter.
"Oh, by the way, what interests me the most is actually life itself."
"I am interested in the birds of the sky, the fish of the earth, the flowers of the yard, the trees of the wilderness, and the beasts of the mountains."
"I believe that life is the greatest wonder in the world, and that life itself must carry the greatest secret of the Creator."
"If you can see through life, then this mortal man will have wisdom that is comparable to God, or even surpasses God."
Listening to these words, Lawson felt more and more clearly that this woman was unique.
But what she said didn't seem to have anything to do with what she wanted.
Vivien squinted as if she could see through Rosen's thoughts.
"I have studied all kinds of life, and I have tried my best to do all kinds of experiments, but I have never been able to see through the essence of life.
"One day, it occurred to me that I didn't need to go to the outside world to find the secrets of life, I had a better way."
Rosen's heart moved, and he understood what she was thinking.
"So, you want to conceive life and observe the process of life from nothing to something, from small to large."
Vivien's eyes lit up when she heard this, "I really didn't see the wrong person, you really have amazing intelligence, and you can easily follow my train of thought."
She looked at Rosen excitedly, like a child finding a new toy.
"That's why I really want to have a child, and I want to carefully observe the whole process of life being conceived and growing in my womb."
Hearing this, Rosen feels like he has met a medieval Frankenstein, a mad scientist who intends to create Frankenstein.
It's funny, but it's also weird, even a little scary.
He asked, "In that case, why do you insist on looking for me?" With your beauty and wealth, it should be easy to find a man who is willing to sow seeds. ”
"You're right, but I'm not a cow, a horse, or a livestock, but a person."
"I have my own taste, but not all men are qualified to sow seeds in me."
"Hasn't Mr. Laster already aired?"
"Rust? No, no, no, he's just my new humanoid edelweiss, oh no, no, it should be a little taller than the edelweiss. ”
"Anyway, no one sleeps with a pet, right?"
"Oh, he's miserable."
Rosen really felt a little sympathetic to Mr. Rust now.
"It's quite miserable, but I've set him free, he can do whatever he likes in Fanggu Town, and it has nothing to do with me."
Vivien put down her glass and asked again, "Now it's time to give an answer, Master Rosen?" ”
Rosen thought for a moment and asked, "Will my child be your test subject?" ”
Vivien immediately shook her head: "Of course not, after all, this is also my child, I am just observing." ”
"Also, I would say that I'm not one to give up easily."
"If you don't agree this time, I'm going to look for more chips to convince you. I believe that one day, you will promise me. ”
Rosen surrendered directly: "I agreed. ”
He saw that this was a talented, self-styled witch who completely ignored mortal morality!
He didn't want to be remembered by her all the time.
This matter was early and well, and as soon as it was over, he hid far away.
Also, in the future, when painting custom paintings, you must do a good job of background checks on customers, and similar things must not happen a second time.
After all, not every rich woman looks as charming as Vivien, and it would be a nightmare to meet someone he can't afford to provoke, but who is old and ugly!
Vivien's dream came true, and she burst into laughter.
"It's easy to talk to a wise man like you, and rest assured, it's too late for me to like you, and it won't interfere with your life."
"For now, you have to eat more, eat more, and don't lose your strength later."
