Chapter 8: The Oath
"Uh-huh?" Talilu frowned and muttered, slowly opening her hazy eyes.
"Eh, why are you awake......" I asked, looking at Talilou, who had opened her eyes, "confused".
Talilu had just woken up, and she couldn't see clearly, so I took the opportunity to withdraw my hand, and the sky was above, and I just thought it was fun, and I didn't want to wake her up...... Well, not found.
“...... Sleepy. Talilu snapped up, opened her eyes, looked at me sleepily, and muffled the word.
"Then you can sleep a little longer......" I said, shaking my hand.
“......”
......
When we woke up, we went to the kitchen, and I was so hungry that my chest was pressed against my back, so I jumped out of bed and dragged Talilu, who was still dizzy, to the kitchen.
"Hee-hee......" I sat down in my seat and grinned as the maid brought breakfast to the side. I'm already hungry!
"Talilu, hurry up and eat, let's go out after eating!" I urged her, as I saw that she was still sleepy...... (Our Nia doesn't blame itself for the root of the problem...... )
Suddenly, my mother came over and tapped me lightly on the head, and said angrily, "What are you playing, Mr. Hook will come to class later!"
"Ahh......h
"Huh. Mom looked at me and smiled, and then said to Talilu, "Talilu, Nia has a class later, do you want to listen to the class together, I'll talk to my husband." ”
"Hmm......" Talilu hesitated and said, "No, no...... ......."
"Talilu, let's listen!" I leaned over and patted her.
Talilu hesitated, still trying to push it off, but under my stalking, Talilu had to say, "...... All right. ”
......
So one morning Talilu and I spent the morning in the Bearded Teacher's class, and Talilu listened very carefully, which made me very bored, and in the end I had to listen carefully, of course, I always came up with some ideas that "surprised" the Bearded Man......
Then we went to lunch after class, and then my mother took me and Talilu to the market, which my mother promised me yesterday!
I took Talilu's hand, shook it slowly, followed behind my mother, and bought it when I saw what I liked, after all, my mother was there, and it wasn't me who paid for it~ Then my mother also bought a lot of things, and there was no shortage of some furniture, which should be prepared for Talilu, I couldn't help but say with a little emotion. He's my wife!, I added in my heart......
"Talilu, do you need anything?" said Mom, turning to Talilu, "Niah, don't do that, Talilu doesn't like it." ”
I smiled and stuck my tongue out at my mother, but I stopped shaking my hand at her.
"It's okay...... it's okay," Talilu replied in a slurred voice.
"Talilu, don't get used to Nia too much, be careful that he's too bad in the future. Mom giggled, and said to me, really, the girl is not in the middle...... I couldn't help but sigh that I don't know where I heard this famous saying.
"We ......"
Talilu was about to say something, but I suddenly let go of the hand that was holding her, put my arm around her shoulder, and said, "Talilu is my wife, she must be on my side!, right, Talilu~"
"Hmm......" Tali blushed and shrunk her head.
"Oh, Nia, do you, as a husband, know what to do?" said my mother, who turned around and squatted down in front of me, smiling.
"Huh?" I didn't know my mom was going to ask me that all of a sudden, and I turned my head to look at Talilu, who was also looking at me with some anticipation of my answer.
"Hmm......" I thought for a moment, then my eyes lit up and I said, "Let Talilu help me buy candy!"
"......" The two women standing across from me had black lines on their faces for some reason...... It's a little scary...... Is my answer bad? How delicious are the sweets......
"Nia!" said Mom, holding out her hand and squeezing my face, smiling, "You're amazing, look!
"Ma'am, I-I didn't ...... No......," Talilu said, bowing her head.
"Niah, you have to remember, if you are Talilu's husband, you have to help Talilu block a qiē thing, a qiē can even hurt her things, you have to take care of your Talilu with your heart, protect Talilu from being harmed!"
"Protect Talilu?" I asked, confused.
"Yes, just like Nia when Mom and Dad protect their children, as a husband to protect his wife. Mom said, stroking my little head.
"Hmm......" I frowned, thought for a moment, thought for a moment and said, took Talilu's arm and retracted it, hugged Talilu tighter, and then solemnly raised my left hand, raised it above my head and said loudly, "I, Nia Lawrence, will make a vow as a husband, I will protect my wife Talilu, protect her with my life! Defend her as if you were defending your own dignity!"
After saying that, I put down my hand, scratched my little head, and looked at my mother and Talilu with a grin, I usually see knights swearing like this, as if they were very powerful, so I learned to do it.
Talilu looked at me in surprise, her face flushed, and then quietly lowered her head, but with a slight smile on her face.
"Nia, what a surprise to me, where did you learn this?" Mom also showed a slightly surprised face, and I grinned and stuck my tongue out at Mom.
"Nia, since you swore an oath, you have to obey it, and you have to protect Talilu!" said her mother with a smile.
"Of course, I defend my oath with my honor!" I said solemnly, in fact, I didn't really understand the honor or anything, but I vaguely understood in my heart that what I just said was a promise to keep for a lifetime!
"Hehe......" Mom looked at me with a playful smile, and I don't know why it gave me a sinister feeling......
After that, my mother took us down to the market, and I saw on the way the Durex that Tali Lou bought yesterday, but Tali Lu was reluctant to go in that direction, so we also bypassed, and after a while, we went back to the Earl's Court, and as soon as we entered the door, we saw Uncle Julius, and he was about to go out.
"Yuris, where are you going?" asked her mother, stopping Yuris.
"Lady Eluo. Uncle Julius saluted his mother, and said, "Go to the fair-and-fair, the things that the Earl said yesterday." ”
"Oh, yes? Then go ahead and we'll not bother you. ”
"Yes. Uncle Yuris answered, and continued in the direction he was going out.
"Let's go, Nia, let's go to dinner. ”
......
In the evening, Talilou and I went back to the room after dinner, but tonight Talilou was going to move to the next room to sleep, and some of the supplies I bought were quickly placed under the arrangement of the servants, and the room was already cleaned, so in the evening Talilou was going to go over there to sleep, there was a small table, a small bed, and a wardrobe, and a delicate candle on the small table, and there were a lot of things!
"How about we play hide and seek again, Talilu?" I asked, taking his little hand.
"There's nowhere to hide here. ”
"It's also coaxing, so what are we going to play?"
"Nia ......," Talilu said as she suddenly called my name.
"Huh, what's the matter?"
"Well, is that true?" asked Talilou, looking down at me.
"What did I say just now?" and I had apparently forgotten about it after dinner.
"Just ......," Talilou hesitated for a moment, then continued, "the oath you just mentioned......"
"Oh, that's it?" I said, taking Talilu's little hand, then looking at her, "Of course it's true, I'll take good care of little Talilu." ”
Talilu slowly raised her little head, the flush on her face had spread to her neck, slowly raised her head, and matched Nia's eyes, Talilu only felt that Nia's blue pupils were a little charming (Nia has blue pupils, and her hair is blonde like her parents), Talilu only felt that her heart was beating very fast, her breathing was a little short, and her face was hot and speechless.
"Brush-" Talilu stretched out her hands and hooked my neck, and suddenly pounced on me, holding my neck with both hands, which made me stunned for a moment, and after a while, Talilu's choked voice came from my ears: "Nia, you are so good to me......"
I was a little panicked, and I slowly hugged Talilu with both hands, and then I took out one hand, like my mother, and stroked Talilu's little head, I knew that I couldn't learn from my father at this time!
"Nia will definitely protect Talilu, Nia likes Talilu the most in addition to her parents, Nia must use her life to protect Talilu!"
"......" Talilu didn't speak, but the hand holding me tightened a little, but the choked voice was still quiet, and then I gently patted Talilu's back and said, "Talilu doesn't cry, Talilu doesn't cry!"
"Uh-huh......" Talilu replied to me. (Tali Lou too...... Talilou's favorite ...... Blessed by the god of nature, Talilu will also use her power to help Nia...... Help Nia protect Talilu...... )
......
A short day passed, Talilu was very happy, yesterday Nia bought me, Talilou came to the Lawrence family, life here is great, the most important thing is Nia, Talilu likes Nia the most, although Nia is stupid, and Talilu takes Talilu as his wife, but in his eyes his wife is to help Nia buy candy! God, the god of nature, please forgive the ignorant Nia, yesterday Talilu and Nia slept together, but Nia is good or bad, has been disturbing Talilou's sleep, God of Nature, please forgive Nia again... ... But today, Nia said she was going to protect Talilu......! Talilu is sleepy......
February 14, 481 in the Inolan calendar
Closing the book on the table and putting down the quill in her hand, Talilu stood up and blew out the light from the small candlelight, leaving only the silver moonlight shining through the window in the room......
