[Baron Bethany is dumbfounded]
[He couldn't imagine why a pure-blood noble would have such a twisted view. It was simply unreasonable, but he couldn't bear the Earl's anger. He apologized again and left your house in a hurry]
[The shrewd old Tutankhamun is very satisfied with your performance, and there seems to be a trace of nostalgia in his eyes]
"Li Cang, the last time I saw you, you were still a child, as innocent and childish as your father was when he was a child." Tutankhamun said as he walked: "Marriage can indeed make a child become a real man quickly. You handled this matter very well and impeccably, but the person behind the Bethany family is Victor. Going against Archduke Serra is not a wise decision. My child, I can tell you. There is only so much left, and everything that follows needs to be faced with caution.”
"Viscount Tutankhamun, please wait a moment..."
The old Tutankhamun just waved his hand and quickly moved away from this place of disputes with a vigor that did not suit his age - it is not unreasonable for this guy to be the middleman that Betaine wanted to find immediately when he wanted to mediate conflicts.
The remaining five people in the room were speechless for a moment.
What the two maids, Kaiya and Xier, thought was that the intensity of work was going to increase again. Originally, this ridiculously large, ruined castle that had barely been tidied up had endless work for them to do, and now there was half a + more work to do. Being half a hostess, there is a big difference between serving two people and serving four people.
Valshina and Avila were at a loss. Their father didn't take them away, but Li Cang didn't say he wanted them either!
】
Just listen to what their father said about letting them go out and live independently. If you take it seriously, you will die. Not to mention whether their ruthless father will take action. The two of them have been raised like canaries since they were young. Whether aristocratic girls can survive on their own without the protection of their families is questionable, not to mention that they still have an attractive sum of money in their hands.
As for psychological activities, family affection or love, hatred, etc...
Even Xue Lai, the daughter of a newly promoted honorary aristocrat who was born as a commoner, is always ready to contribute to the family. As the number one heir of the family, Selvi kills whenever he wants. In this high-pressure living environment, too many psychological activities It will only shorten the remaining time they have to live.
Therefore, they just wanted to beg for mercy from the earl instead of complaining and resenting him.
In the end, Li Cang was also a little confused.
The intrigues have been going on for a long time, but the fart plot has not been triggered. Not to mention that there are two more idiots at home. When Da Leizi comes back from get off work, it is probably time for him to witness the devastating Thunder Palm... .
It’s so timi that it makes one’s head bald!
Xi'er carefully looked at Li Cang, whose expression was changing: "Master, shall I take them down?"
Li Cang waved his hand and asked expectantly: "Can you two cook?"
"Yes!" Valshina said immediately, "Avila and I have received various teachings since childhood and are very skilled in making various foods and baking. We have also learned dancing, Queen's chess, and painting——"
"Very good, that's enough, that's enough." Li Cang said to Kaiya: "Go back to the union and take down the notice recruiting cooks!"
"..."
The issues about the surplus grain and the cook can be put aside for now, because it is already the lunch time specified by the narrator.
Oh yes, lunch and afternoon tea are basically together.
After the pastries in the morning, Li Cang will eat vegetables, vegetables, vegetables and fruits at noon, and then drink huge sweet condensed milk black tea for two and a half hours. It is not until dinner that he can eat the exotic beasts that can really fill his stomach. Meat basically means that you can only eat one full meal if you are hungry all day long. The culprit of all this is not poverty, but that all the nobles are doing this, euphemistically calling it a healthy lifestyle habit of eating less, eating more, chewing slowly, They thought it would make people live longer.
"I don't know if I will live long or not. If I continue to be so healthy, I will starve to death in this hellish place sooner or later..."
Fortunately, the life habit of nobles is to get up late and go to bed late. Basically, one o'clock is the bedtime specified by the narrator. Before that, you can "enjoy" snacks with black tea, or go out for a sumptuous supper like last night.
The "bloodline awakening" of the blood nobles was obviously a big event. While Li Cang was sipping sweet black tea to satisfy his hunger, people from the Holy Council of Yuctra Hill came to the door and informed Li Cang that the prominent nobles of the Council were there. Two days later, he personally visited Li Cang's house to verify Li Cang's bloodline and other related matters, and discuss the issue of the deceased's inheritance rights.
"Ouch~"
Li Cang suddenly felt a little happy. After two days of acting, the performance made progress. He beat Selvi but accidentally opened up the situation. Thank you stranger, your death is not so worthless!
——————
As night fell, Bethany got on the carriage and entered Lord Victor's castle through the back door.
Lord Victor is tall and has a rugged face with a hint of ferocity. Combined with his various greedy behaviors of eating people without spitting out bones, this may be the source of his title of Lord Hyena.
Old Bethany bowed deeply: "Your most humble servant greets you, good night, Lord Victor, son of the great Grand Duke Serra."
"Wise elder, put away your unnecessary etiquette. You are my true friend and partner. You don't have to be like this." Victor said with a smile: "Selvi's death is regrettable. I hope his death can make Betan Because the family has obtained the forgiveness of the earl."
"Yes, Earl Cang Li accepted my apology and gift."
"What kind of person is that Earl?"
"A very... strange person..." Old Bethany shook his head: "He doesn't look like a nobleman at all. He keeps saying weird things like life is sacred and relatives hide themselves from each other."
"Is that true?"
"Yes, Selvi bumped into him and your prey, which triggered a series of conflicts. This idiot, he actually thought that challenging a pure-blood count would...will...I don't even understand why I gave birth to this Such a stupid son, I have sent all her mother clan to keep him company before coming." Every muscle on Bethany's face revealed ferocity, "Also, I'm afraid that Count Li Cang is really After awakening his bloodline, I saw with my own eyes that his palm pressed a regular palm print with a depth of three fingers on the 8-inch alienated iron wood table. That is definitely not something that ordinary people who have not awakened their bloodline can do."
"Damn..." Victor rubbed his brows: "If that's the case, the council will find him soon. That fat pig is lucky to have chosen this time to get involved with him."
"so..."
"Delay the action, maybe I will go see the sick Earl in a few days." Victor said: "Before that, he has to get through the old guys in the parliament. Haha, if I If I remember correctly, the Li family has its own share in the Abyss of the Dead, right? Who occupies that part now?"
"It's Duke Nikolai, His Excellency Victor."
"Nico is here? So it's the old immortal? This sick Earl doesn't seem to be very lucky! Oh, maybe the old immortal will solve some troubles for us, so, Baron Bethany, my friend , please join me and look forward to it!”
Bethany's eyes lit up.
One son died inexplicably. Although he could have given birth to two, four, or a dozen more children with his physical strength, wouldn’t it take time, resources, and cost to cultivate an heir? He was not what he seemed. Yun Dan Fengqing didn't care at all. He hated it, but he couldn't do it because of the double oppression of the identity of the sick earl in front of him. If possible, he certainly wanted to see the sick earl being eaten by the parliament. No scum left!
A polished earl whose family has declined to the point where only one person is left, a sick man who is so poor that he doesn’t even have a few servants and slaves to take care of his daily life, and a lady who is not only a pariah but even shows up in the arena to continue her career as a gladiator. A coward who doesn't work decently to support his family in Hukou, so what if he awakens his bloodline? This is never a good thing for him!
