After Farina moved all the herbs into the yard, she spread out all the cimicifuga and dried it very sensibly.

And Ella had been sitting in the yard, and Farina could feel that there were more people in the yard, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

Because this made her feel that she was an outsider, Falina had been in Xu Siling's house for so long, and she had always been very calm and happy, and for the first time she had a sense of alienation from being an outsider.

Thinking that Mr. Siling was about to get married, and she couldn't come here to find Mr. Siling at will in the future, she was depressed.

When she was done, she didn't know what she was supposed to do, and it seemed like she had to leave and go home.

But I was a little reluctant to leave.

Farina was struggling in the yard, and she subconsciously looked at Ella on the bench and couldn't help but be stunned.

It's so beautiful...

Ella's black hair is spread out, her gray eyes are deep but a little unfocused, her facial features are extremely delicate, her face can be broken by blowing, and her pink lips are slightly open, even if she doesn't meet her gaze, she can always attract the attention of others.

Suddenly, she slowly got up and walked towards the cimicifuga that Falina had just spread.

This made Falina suddenly curious, and she didn't say anything, wanting to see what Ella wanted to do.

I saw Ella come to the cohosh covered with sun, stretched out her hand to pinch the cimicifuga, took it to her nose and sniffed it, and then put it in her mouth and chewed it without hesitation.

Falina panicked and rushed over.

"You can't eat this!"

Falina leaned in front of Ella, her face full of helplessness, looking at the dust on her lips, her small mouth still moving, not knowing what to do.

"Your name is Ella, you can't eat this thing."

Ella swallowed expressionlessly, and as she watched Farina look at herself anxiously, she finally spoke.

"I'm hungry."

"You can't eat herbs when you're hungry, although there's nothing wrong with eating them..."

"Why can't you eat it?"

"This herb is for Mr. Silling's other uses."

Seeing the helplessness in Ella's gray eyes, obviously really hungry, Falina had to pull her to the bench next to her and sit down.

"I have other dry food on me, you can take it and eat it."

Just then, the door opened, and Terry stepped out of the house, only to see him put on his hood and cloak and walk out without even looking at him.

Then Terry was heard riding his horse and leaving with the sound of horses' hooves.

Falina was stunned and didn't react, but Ella was still indifferent, as if nothing had happened, holding the dry food that Falina gave her and eating it seriously.

The door opened again, Xu Siling walked out, and when she saw Ella sitting on the bench, she suddenly helplessly held her forehead, and she didn't know what it was like in her heart.

"Mr. Silling, didn't you have a good conversation with Ella's brother?"

Xu Siling had a headache: "It's not good..."

Falina saw Xu Siling's unhappiness, and quickly stood up and leaned over, as if asking for praise, and said with a smile.

"Mr. Siling, I'll help you sort out the herbs."

Xu Siling reacted at this time, and when he saw that the yard was covered with dried cimicifuga, he forced a smile: "It's really helpful, I almost forgot what I was going to do when I came back." ”

Falina laughed happily when she was praised, and couldn't help but ask, "Why did her brother leave all of a sudden?" ”

"Terry left her sister here."

"Huh?" Falina was taken aback, then thought for a moment and whispered, "Mr. Siling, I think this Ella may not be right. ”

Xu Siling was surprised, the silly white sweet Falina could sense that something was wrong with this woman! Looks like there's something wrong with this Ella.

"Something feels wrong with her?"

"She's not hostile to me."

Xu Siling was stunned.

"What do you mean?"

"Mr. Silling, it's strange that a woman like me, who can come and go in and out of your house at will, has no hostility towards me, and her attitude is still peaceful towards me."

Xu Siling suddenly realized, this kind of detail is afraid that only you women can pay attention to it.

"Of course, it may also be my delusion, anyway, I'll go home first, you..." Falina blushed slightly, and her mint green eyes looked up and down on Xu Siling: "You have to protect yourself." ”

With that, he left the courtyard and headed towards the mountains and forests.

Falina actually wanted to accompany Xu Siling more, but she had no choice, she was not an uninteresting person, everyone sent her sister over, and she was not an eyesore there.

I just wanted to come back tomorrow and see what Mr. Silling decided.

Xu Siling digested Farina's words, and looked back at Ella sitting on the bench, looking at her with gray eyes stunned after eating.

Xu Siling looked at Ella for the first time and was stunned.

I have to say that European women grow up fast, and it is a bit exaggerated to grow like this at the age of thirteen.

The face has faded from the cute description, with a girlish greenness, although the gray pupils are godless, but the facial features are exquisite, and the face can be broken.

It can be said that this is the most beautiful girl Xu Siling has seen after living for so long.

Especially the figure... It's almost a lot more than Fei'er.

Xu Siling sighed, no matter what is wrong with the woman in front of her, whether she looks good or not, anyway, just find a way to send her back.

"Your name is Ella, right?"

"Ella Flophon." Ella slowly rose from the bench.

"Where is your home in Tamuburg, you should remember, right?"

Ella wondered, as if she didn't know what the question meant.

Seeing that Ella didn't respond, Xu Siling said directly: "It just so happens that there is a letter to be sent to the lord of Tamu Fort in the past few days, and you will go back with someone when the time comes." ”

Ella wondered, "Why, my husband." ”

"First of all, I'm not your husband. I didn't agree either, I was halfway through the conversation with your brother, and he suddenly ran away! I don't know what your family thinks, at least I don't have the idea of getting married yet. ”

"You're not happy with me."

"It's not a question of satisfaction." Xu Siling asked very seriously, "You haven't even seen my face until now, are you willing to marry a man you have never met easily?" ”

"Yes."

Xu Siling was stunned, he felt that it was stupid for him to ask this kind of question, how many women living in this world have a choice?

"You just live in my house these days, there is only one bed at home, don't think about it, it's me who sleeps in the bed and you sleep on the chair, and you will clean up by yourself later."

Saying that, Xu Siling walked into the house and left Ella outside the house and stood still.

Ella hurriedly ran into the house after a while, and saw that Xu Siling was boiling something, and a smell of soup and medicine came to her face.

"You don't want to marry me."

"I don't want to marry."

"But I'm hungry."

"Drink this when you're hungry."

Xu Siling picked up a bowl of the boiling hot decoction and put it in front of her.

Ella looked at the steaming decoction strangely, and saw that Xu Siling had also brought the bowl herself, and went to the side to drink it by herself.

She had no choice but to be obedient, find a place to sit down, and slowly blow dry.

Marriage in the Middle Ages was 'barbaric'.

In general, girls are given the right to marry when they reach the age of 12 and boys reach the age of 15, and men and women are free to marry without the consent of the elders in the family.

So in the Middle Ages, people could get married on the road, in a tavern, at a friend's house or even in bed, which means that as long as both parties look at the right eye, they can get married immediately, which is unimaginable in modern times.

And, contrary to traditional belief, churches were not very popular for weddings in the Middle Ages.

On the one hand, people don't need a priest to witness a marriage at all.

On the other hand, during the period of hardship, the common people suffered from plague and poverty, and had little money and energy to add to the so-called sense of ritual.

Occasionally, some large families would just make a show near the church, and use the glorious and sacred 'gate' of the church to hold a small wedding, which was of course a very luxurious thing at the time.

But the so-called freedom is not freedom.

Marriages between classes and young men and women are not supported by both families.

The wedding banquet that is not supported will not be easy in the future.

Terry brought Ella over, and the plan was to complete the wedding on the same day, and it would be almost as good as a witness himself.

Savage is very free.

Even in the eyes of outsiders, this kind of woman who is sent to the door is just a flower, plus a military horse, there is simply no choice.

But Xu Siling couldn't accept it.

Especially Ella is too young to get over that hurdle in her heart.

And...

Xu Siling had already noticed that something was wrong with Ella, who was gently blowing with the decoction.

People look beautiful, they are dumbfounded, they speak simply and directly, and they don't seem to have much ability to think.

The decoction was very bitter, astringent and sour, but Ella didn't seem to think about asking what the decoction was for, and after drinking it, she hesitated for a while and talked to Xu Siling.

"Husband, I want to apply."

"First of all, I'm not your husband, and then, what are you going to apply for."

"I'm your wife, and I can't sleep in a chair at night."

Xu Siling rubbed her eyebrows: "No!" And you're not my wife, I didn't promise. ”

"Are you going to marry the woman you just had?"

"Her name is Falina and she is a good friend of mine. I haven't gotten to the point where I got to the point where you said. ”

"And you have someone you like?"

Xu Siling did not hesitate: "No." ”

Ella blinked, affirming, "You like men." ”

Xu Siling was choked by this sentence: "What are you talking nonsense about!" ”

"My brother said, you're twenty-eight years old."

"And then? Just because I'm twenty-eight, I have to like men? ”

"Then are you interested in women?"

Xu Siling's mind couldn't help but recall the galloping horse in the dream, and he didn't hesitate again: "Of course!" ”

"I'm ugly?"

"It's beautiful."

"Then why can't I be your wife?"

"First of all!"

Xu Siling sighed and prepared to explain.

When he drank the decoction earlier, he took off his mask, and now he took off his hat again, so that Ella had a chance to see what the man who didn't want to marry him looked like.

The eyebrows are slender and clean, without the sloppiness of other men, and the sense of maturity is very thick, especially the brown eyes, which are bright and bright, as if they can see through everything.

"I'm looking for freedom, and so is relationships, and marriage isn't child's play."

"Freedom?" "Everyone in the family says it's normal for executioners to marry each other, and everyone else does. ”

Xu Siling sorted out his thoughts, and then looked at Ella with a long way to go, ready to educate the fish in front of him who had slipped through the nine-year compulsory education, although he felt that it was very difficult.

But just as he was about to speak, Ella spoke.

She looked good, her little mouth opened slightly, and then her gray eyes had a slightly pitiful look.

"I'm hungry, husband."
