Of course Nok is not Finn's godfather.
Although he baptized Fan, he never said he wanted to be Fan's godfather.
Sean and his son never mentioned it.
Nok tricked Sean to death, and then continued to trick Ron, which was a bit unfair to him.
The child Finn was baptized and named by Nok himself.
It has a somewhat special meaning.
Coupled with the child's inexplicable closeness to him, every time the weather was fine, this kid would sit in front of his house, waiting for Nok who was going to church to pass by, and he would excitedly run over to say hello.
Although he always called Nock "Father", Nock knew that he actually wanted to call him Father.
It’s only a child who is learning to speak. He can’t pronounce words clearly, let alone words that are difficult to pronounce.
The child was used to this shout, and Nok didn't bother to correct him.
The adults in his family would not correct Nock when they saw him, let alone correct him, what if the truth turned out to be true.
Originally, Nok no longer looked down upon Ron's family because of Sean and Kahn's incident.
But what matters to adults is nothing to do with children.
Therefore, when he saw little Finn being bullied, Nok was furious and decided to stand up for the little guy as compensation for the Ron family.
He also took the opportunity to see how Helen, who was originally crying, delicate and frail, turned into a person who attacks children.
"Molly, let's go help little Finn first, and we can play later."
Nok didn't forget to explain to Jasmine that after all, this child was too opinionated and he couldn't ignore her feelings just because she was a child.
"Okay. I just want to see who is so shameless that he even bullies children."
Jasmine didn't know about Helen's matter. After all, Helen's matter was not a glorious matter.
Ron and Arnos worked together to ban the villagers from talking about Helen's pregnancy.
Many villagers had no idea that Helen was already living in the village chief's house.
Holding the hands of two children, we walked through a lush path.
There are water dill fruit seedlings planted on both sides of the path. Although they are only more than a month old, they are still alive quickly due to the efforts of the villagers to water them.
As long as we survive this winter, we may be able to see two rows of small trees next year.
The village chief's house was not far from the tavern, so the three of them quickly stood in front of the village chief's house.
A three-story building with a courtyard was modeled after a tavern building.
When it was originally built, Sean planned to build more rooms for the children.
Unexpectedly, in just two years, Sean and his wife passed away, and their daughter Lisanna married far away, almost severing ties with the family.
Lisanna didn't even attend the funeral of old Sean. It was Lisanna's husband who attended the funeral.
It is said that Lisanna has already given birth to a daughter and is now pregnant with her second child, so she did not attend Sean's funeral.
Kahn was buried on the same day as Sean, but there was no funeral.
After all, according to Kahn's behavior, it is already good not to be exposed in the wilderness.
Standing at the door, Nok sighed for a moment about the impermanence of the world.
Went into the yard with the two little ones.
Maybe he heard the noise outside the door, but a cursing female voice came from the room.
"Why are you so procrastinating? You want to starve me to death! Starving me to death is not a problem. Starving the children to death, I'll see how you explain it!"
Even a calm man like Nok couldn't bear to hear that harsh tone.
Perhaps after hearing Helen's harsh words, little Finn hugged Nok's calf in fear and hid himself behind Nok.
Jasmine frowned and looked at the house with disgust.
"Ryan, do we really want to take care of this? That person inside is so annoying, even more annoying than those gossipy ladies on the commercial street."
Children's senses are sensitive.
They may not know so much truth, but they can still feel it whether they like it or not.
"Don't worry, leave it to me."
Ryan took his two children and walked directly to the door of the house and opened the door without any politeness.
"Huh! I finally found out that I'm back from the dead. Here's the rouge I wanted. I want to put on beautiful makeup and go out for a walk. Being bored here is killing me!" (Note 1)
"Suffocate to death? Then just go and die!"
Nok looked at the woman lying in the recliner in front of him and said something unceremoniously that made the woman angry.
Rouge is a cosmetic brought back from the East by large caravans and is deeply loved by ladies in aristocratic circles. The price is high and it is a luxury product.
Nok didn't expect that such a thing could be obtained in the commercial street of Tarn Village. Obviously, a businessman in Seine City was eyeing the business opportunities here and sent people to cooperate.
But even if rouge is sold in the village, it is only targeted at tourists or aristocratic women who come to the church to pray.
When will the villagers be able to afford such luxury goods?
Anyway, Nok heard those ladies chatting and said that the lowest price of a box of rouge from the East was calculated in gold coins.
As the village chief, Ron's income is higher than that of other villagers, but his family cannot afford to spend money in gold coins.
The village does have a good income every month now, but that money is used to pay taxes to Anos and Nok.
Since Knock established the church, under the auspices of Sean, Tarn Village has become a believer in the name of the church. They only need to pay tithes to the church and no longer have to pay family taxes to the state.
But as Arnos is the lord, Tarn Village still has to pay territory tax to him.
Therefore, although the sum of the two taxes is lighter than before, it is still not a small amount.
Put it this way. If the deposits of villagers two years ago were probably in copper coins, the deposits of villagers now are in silver coins.
The villagers could definitely afford one or two gold coins, but that should be all their savings.
Therefore, when Nock knew that Helen actually asked Catherine to buy her rouge, instead of buying some food "Zhi Zhi" as Finn thought, he couldn't help but scold her.
Helen, who was scolded, didn't even notice that the person speaking was Nok. She thought it was Ron, and immediately sat up from the recliner in a rage.
"Okay! How dare you curse me! I will tell the Viscount to behead your whole family!"
Um? There's something wrong with that.
Judging from Helen's words, is she threatening the Ron family with the Viscount? How dare she!
Did she really think that she was pregnant with Anos' child so the mother was worth the price of the child?
Even if her child becomes Anos' heir, she cannot become the child's mother. On this point, Nok and Anos have a tacit understanding.
There was no way Anos could let a commoner become his wife.
Giving Helen the status of a lover was already a favor.
So, what kind of monster is Helen doing? Does she want to make her affair with Anos known to everyone?
"Okay, I also want to see how Fred beheaded my family. Go tell him! Do you need me to send someone to take you there?"
Nok led the two children into the living room, sat on a chair in the living room, and then looked at Helen, who had an ugly face, with a joking expression.
"Ryan...Father? Why is it you!"
When Helen saw Nok, she finally realized something was wrong.
Father Ryan and Lord Gareth are the most distinguished people in Tarn Village, more noble than the village chief.
Even the Viscount is their friend, but he actually said that he wanted to chop off their heads, which is simply...
However, she quickly realized that her identity was different now.
She is pregnant with the Viscount's child, and her mother has said that she will be a Viscountess in the future.
Tarn Village will be her family's territory from now on, and she will control everyone's life and death. She is not afraid of any priest or Gareth.
You have to bow when you see her from now on!
Thinking of her mother's words, she suddenly became angry again.
"Father Ryan, you are so rude! You barged in without knocking on the door. And you didn't even salute me. I am the future Viscountess!"
Helen's words made Nok almost die laughing.
Who gave her the courage to say this?
Nok was in a hurry to take Jasmine to play, and was too lazy to talk nonsense with her. He decided to cut through the mess quickly and get rid of Helen, the troublemaker.
"Helen, I don't know which idiot encouraged you to do this. But you have to understand one thing."
"The fact that you are pregnant with Fred's child must be kept secret. Whoever reveals it will die! Now you should think about how to calm Fred's anger. I will send someone to tell him about this."
Helen was scared, and she shouted in panic: "No! No! I'm pregnant with his child!"
"Shh! Keep your voice down! If outsiders hear it, I can only kill you now. So you'd better calm down!"
"Don't think I'm scaring you. The Viscountess is still raising her baby in the Viscount's mansion and expecting to give birth. At this time, it is reported that another woman is pregnant with the Viscount's illegitimate child. What do you want the Viscountess's family to think? What does the Viscount think? The whole Senna What do the city’s nobles think?”
"In order to quell the anger of these people, Fred will definitely kill your family to quell this matter."
"Don't think Fred won't do this. Don't be stupid. He is a noble. In his eyes, you commoners are no more important than domestic animals. Children who cannot be born are meaningless."
"So, you'd better raise the baby obediently and don't make so many troubles. Only when your child is born can you have a chance. Mother is more valuable than child."
"Otherwise, you are just a dispensable spare tire. You can conceive a child for Fred, but other women can't? Don't be stupid. As a Viscount, Fred does not lack a woman, but a woman who can provide him with a child. The woman who gave birth to his child safely!”
"Ron, Fred and I have chosen you to take care of you, and I am also the person to monitor you. I am not your servant to let you roam around. If you are unclear about your status, then I will let you He'll give you some color to see."
"As long as the child is not hurt, I don't think Fred will bother me for a woman who wants to cause trouble for him. Do you want to bet your position in Fred's heart?"
Nok finished these words with a smile, but for some reason, Helen felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave and felt cold all over.
Her mother's words collapsed and were no longer enough to support her continued arrogance.
She recalled the days when she worked in a hotel and saw with her own eyes how the nobles scolded the waiters and servants who made mistakes.
Wasn't she herself forcibly dragged into the room by Viscount Fred to have sex?
There was not even any compensation afterwards.
And the repeated defilement made her numb, and even her family members did not dare to tell her.
It wasn't until she found out she was pregnant that she got scared and went to church to complain to the priest.
When did he dare to threaten Father Ryan?
Do you think you are really the indispensable woman for the Viscount?
At this moment, Helen finally woke up from her fantasy.
To put it bluntly, she was confused by her parents' words.
I don’t know if the greedy parents were talking nonsense during this time. As the priest said, if the secret was revealed, they might not survive.
"Father Ryan, I'm sorry, I was confused. Please, don't tell the Viscount. I will definitely change it. And my parents, I'm worried that they will talk nonsense. Please give the Viscount a warning."
Helen's lowered head made Nok smile with satisfaction.
Humph, I really thought he had so much time to worry about such nonsense.
So, when the Rons came back from outside, they saw a well-behaved Helen.
"Father Ryan, you are here."
"Good day, Father Ryan. This is..."
The couple didn't understand what was happening, but Father Ryan was sitting on a chair with Helen, who was standing in front of him with his head bowed. This scene was somewhat similar to the scene where his father scolded him when he was a child.
"It's nothing. I just heard that someone is restless. I'll take care of it. Don't worry, from now on you can live your life and give her a bite if she has something to eat. You don't have to coddle her."
"As long as you can ensure that the child is born safely, you have nothing wrong. There is no need to wrong yourself for her."
"Also, she is not allowed to bully little Finn in the future. Although I did not agree to be the godfather to little Finn, he still called me his father when he grew up. Not everyone can be bullied!"
"Although I am not his godfather, I am his father. Although there is a word difference, as long as little Finn does not cause trouble in my name, I will still be happy to protect him. Do you understand?"
Nok's words were a reassurance for the Rons.
The couple excitedly pulled Little Finn to kneel down to Nok. Nok was not humble and accepted Little Finn's kneeling.
"Okay, now that I've solved your family's minor issues, it's time for me to go out."
"By the way, little Jasmine and I are going to Seine City. If we have a good time, we may spend one night in Seine City. Ron, please go to the tavern later and tell Makina that she doesn't have to worry about the tavern. There are too many people, so it’s not convenient for me to show up.”
"Yes, Father Ryan."
"Let's go! You decide how to get along with each other in the future. Under the same roof, peaceful coexistence is the most important, otherwise you will be in trouble for a few months!"
Nok left Ron's house with Jasmine and walked towards the stables with a piece of advice.
Soon, a horse carried Nok and Jasmine and headed straight for Seine City.
"Note 1: It is not possible to find out whether medieval Western women wore makeup, but women are born to love beauty, and they should have cosmetics. The use of rouge here is purely for the explanation of the word "zhizhi"."
