house fighting in another world
Chapter 27
After the elder said that sentence, he resumed the old monk's meditation posture. Sitting in his position, it is naturally impossible to draw conclusions on things that are still uncertain, and at most it is only used as an introduction.
With the beginning of the elder's words, the others secretly looked at Angus, seeing that he did not show any displeasure, their hearts immediately became active, and some people responded one after another.
"What the third elder said is very true. These years, the younger generation of girls in the family have not had the opportunity to come to the imperial capital to see them. Without the personal guidance of the patriarch's wife, their words and deeds are always lacking."
"We know that the Patriarch is in love, and we all remember Madam's kindness, but Madam has been gone for ten years, and this position has been vacant for ten years, so it can't just stay vacant forever."
"Yes, our Ashfield family has a big business, and we don't even have a wife in charge. People outside will take it as a joke."
"Half of this year has passed, and it's time for girls of the younger generation to come to the imperial capital to learn more."
……
Everyone was chattering, Angus remained expressionless, and let them talk for a long time, then raised his eyes and glanced around, and glanced at Sawyer calmly, but he saw a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he couldn't tell what was on his mind , and when the surroundings became quiet again, he asked lightly: "Is there any suitable candidate in your mind?"
After asking this question, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and fell silent again.Sawyer chuckled, and said slowly: "Lisa Manda married into the Ashfield family together with my mother. Over the years, she has been well-behaved, worked hard, and gave birth to two sons and a daughter for the family. There is no credit but hard work. , now, she should also be allowed to be consummated once in a while, and take the position of the head of the house. Am I right?"
The young man's clear voice with a slight smile was like ding-dong spring water slowly flowing through the ears of everyone present. Although it was soft and soothing, it gradually chilled the hearts of those with ulterior motives. exported.The handsome young man in front of him has perfectly inherited the handsome appearance of his parents. The way he smiles is so similar to his former wife, gentle and pure as an angel, but now, they actually try to help other women to occupy him. The position of that angelic person, this thought made everyone feel that they were too cruel.
The first ones to come back to their senses were still a few respected elders, with a sigh in their old voices: "Lisa Manda is the wife's maid, and her status is low, so she can't afford this position, so let's choose another one." .”
Everyone nodded their heads: "Yes, it doesn't make sense for a maid to sit in the position of the patriarch's wife."
"The family's face must not be lost, let's find another noble lady who is well-matched."
"Although I have three children, they are not the eldest son after all. Let's choose another one."
……
Sawyer's light words completely shattered Lisa Manda's wishful thinking. Earl Angus, who had not expressed his position from the beginning to the end, only announced the end of today's meeting indifferently at the end.
As soon as the meeting was over, Sawyer returned to his room and ate dinner in the room. Everyone expressed their understanding for this. After all, what everyone is discussing now is to find someone to replace his mother. Feeling down is also understandable.Therefore, when Ryan hurried home, he was faced with a group of slightly guilty eyes, and Angus even ordered the tray in the hands of the master manager: "Sawyer is not feeling well, you take these .”
Ryan handed the official hat to the butler beside him, took the tray kindly and gracefully, and saluted gracefully: "Okay, my lord father. Everyone, I'm sorry to be excused first."
Taking steady steps, Ryan walked unhurriedly through the corner of the stairs, leaving behind all the probing eyes behind him, and then sped up his pace slightly. He didn't believe that Sawyer would really have something, could it be that today? What happened at the regular meeting?While thinking, he pushed open the door.
"Daddy~~~" Qiuqiu turned his head and smiled brightly at Ryan. His immature voice was soft and sticky, and it was very pleasant to hear. Under Sawyer's persistent teaching, the little guy finally called him the right name. , got a satisfied kiss from Sawyer, the little guy immediately grabbed Sawyer's neck, and gave him a big kiss.
Ryan's eyebrows twitched, he put down the tray, picked up the little guy's back collar and threw it beside Xiao Hei, and sat beside Sawyer naturally, holding his waist: "What did they say at the meeting?" gone?"
Sawyer tilted his head, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, but there was a rare lack of smile in his eyes: "They want to straighten Lisa Manda."
"Are they joking?" She actually thought of letting a person who was born as a maid become a dignified countess!It's not that Ryan looks down on the maid, but the huge disparity in status makes people feel a little whimsical.
Sawyer lowered his head slightly, raised his hand and lightly pressed his chest, and said quietly: "It's really unbelievable, such words will come from this group of people, shouldn't they be the people who value the face of the family the most?"
Sensing that something was wrong with Sawyer, Ryan asked softly, "What's wrong? Could it be that father agreed?"
Sawyer shook his head: "How could he agree? If he really wanted to, Lisa Manda would have been the real wife long ago, why wait ten years, and let me suppress her, it's a pity that these people can't see through. "
"Then why are you still sad?"
"I feel sorry for Sawyer." After learning the true intentions of those people, the soul in his body was irritable and restless, and his heart ached unbearably. The words at the meeting were also to vent his anger for Sawyer.Our fairy is a kind-hearted person who keeps his word!
Ryan patted Sawyer on the back lightly, comforting him silently.The discarded ball crawled all the way from the end of the bed to the head of the bed with difficulty, whimpered and threw itself into Sawyer's arms, propping up her white and tender face, trying to accuse Ryan of his abuse.
The slight sadness in Sawyer's heart was suddenly hit by the little guy, and suddenly turned into a touch of helplessness. He raised his hand and rubbed the little guy's soft golden fetal hair, pinched his little arm like a lotus root, and hugged him with a light smile: "Hey, let's eat."
As soon as he heard the meal, the little black round ears moved, his little black eyes looked at Sawyer expectantly, and his little tail wagged happily.Sawyer smiled and took Xiao Hei by the back of the neck, and brought it to the small plate containing the fruit puree, letting it chitter happily and jump into it.
This night, Sawyer didn't waste any more time, and started to practice after eating.Ryan vaguely felt that Sawyer seemed to be a little different tonight, but he didn't say anything, picked up Xiao Hei, and let it create a small illusion in the room, so as not to be seen.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Ryan was about to go out, but he stopped after hearing the housekeeper's words: "Confirmed?"
The housekeeper replied softly: "It has been confirmed, she is on her way here."
Ryan frowned slightly, and gave some instructions. After watching the butler leave, he turned and went back to his room, changed his clothes, and went downstairs to have dinner with Sawyer.
Not long after, there was a sound of horseshoes outside the door, and the butler hurried up to Earl Angus, bowed and said, "My lord, Your Majesty the Queen is here."
Angus gave a hand holding the napkin, then got up and greeted him. The others looked at each other and quickly followed.In the courtyard, the Queen had already got out of the carriage with the help of Lisa Manda, and was holding Lisa Manda's hand, talking softly, and the gestures of the two seemed very intimate.
"Your Majesty the Queen." Angus led a group of people to bow and salute.
Udulla glanced around unhurriedly, his eyes lingered on Sawyer and Ryan for a moment, raised his chin slightly, and showed a shallow smile: "The Earl's house is so lively, it seems that I'm being abrupt."
Knowing that Udulla asked the question knowingly, Angus still said indifferently: "Your Majesty, you are very polite. It is a great honor for you to come to our residence in person. These are all retainers of the Ashfield family. They are here to hold a regular family meeting."
Udulla smiled at the corner of her mouth: "I hit it off with Lisa Manda very much, and I want to recognize her as my sister, but she said that I need to ask the earl first to make a decision. I can't wait, so I came here early in the morning Ask your lord."
Sawyer's half-drooped eyes flashed a cold light very quickly, and Qiuqiu, who was held in his arms, seemed to sense something, and suddenly hugged Sawyer's neck, rubbing his small face against his body.
Angus glanced at the well-behaved Lisa Manda next to Udulla, and said in a calm voice, "This is Lisa Manda's private matter, and I have no right to ask about it. It is good that Her Majesty the Queen asked her what she meant."
Hearing this, the brilliance in Lisa Manda's eyes instantly dimmed a lot. She did not forget that Angus had a strong possessive desire for that woman more than ten years ago, and he wanted to intervene even in small private matters. How can it be so "no right to ask" as it is now.
Udulla smiled happily, and patted the back of Lisa Manda's hand lightly: "Your Earl is really considerate, I am a little envious of you."
Lisa Manda soon cheered up, raised her head and chuckled, "Your Majesty, stop making fun of me."
Ryan listened to the two women pretending to show their sisterhood in public, the smile on the corners of their lips was tinged with sarcasm, the queen's hand was stretched too far, is it true that the emperor is a clay figurine?
Because of Udulla's fuss, today's regular meeting was dragged until the afternoon, and yesterday's topic was brought up as usual, but everyone's tone changed slightly.
"Ms. Lisa Manda has just been recognized by Her Majesty the Queen as her younger sister, and the patriarch will marry another new person. I'm afraid Her Majesty the Queen will be displeased."
"Her Majesty the Queen came here with a canonization order. Although only one lady was conferred, if we want to find another newcomer, it must be a level higher than Mrs. Lisa Manda. Only in this way, Her Majesty the Queen will Thinking we didn't take her seriously was a bad trip."
"Actually, Mrs. Lisa Manda can also be considered as the patriarch's wife. After all, myopia is different from the past, and no one will dare to gossip."
"Yeah, Mrs. Lisa Manda is actually not bad."
……
Sawyer hooked the corners of his lips, his sapphire-like eyes projected a cold gaze, and slid past everyone present one by one, secretly remembering them in his heart.
With the beginning of the elder's words, the others secretly looked at Angus, seeing that he did not show any displeasure, their hearts immediately became active, and some people responded one after another.
