These days, wives deliver to their door by themselves

Emily shook her head, "Thank you for your concern, I just want to come out and get some air."

Du Wei guessed that the other party should be as unaccustomed to that kind of occasion as himself, and dealing with those children was really exhausting both physically and mentally.

"Then I'll stay here with you for a while."

After Du Wei finished speaking, he walked to the gazebo where Emily was and sat down. In fact, she just wanted to find an excuse to avoid the banquet. After all, he only needs to deal with Emily alone if he stays here.

"Huh? Okay, okay." Emily looked confused and nervous.

At this time, Du Wei noticed that the other party had a pair of hands that did not belong to the noble daughter, and these hands made him feel familiar.

Because he also had such a pair of callused hands in his previous life, it is not surprising that he often helps his family cut wheat, but Miss Emily is the noble daughter of the Earl's family.

For a moment Du Wei thought about whether he was an illegitimate child or being bullied, but soon he overturned these guesses.

Because the appearance of the three daughters of the Man Aier family is almost a miniature version of Mrs. Man Aier, the attitude of the separated children towards the three daughters is also extremely polite.

And that bold and carefree Mrs. Manel doesn't look like a bad person who would abuse children.

Du Wei didn't understand, so he asked questions directly

"Miss Emily, what happened to your hand?"

As a result, Emily's whole body visibly paused, and she hurriedly hid her hands behind her back.

"I'm so sorry to upset you."

"No, no, you misunderstood. I'm not unhappy, just curious."

Emily seemed to feel inferior to those hands, "Really just curious?"

"Well, I think those are hardworking hands. Is Miss Emily planting some plants?"

Because he had owned it before, Du Wei understood that only those who worked hard could have those hands.

"Hmm... I'm sorry for disappointing your expectations, my hands became like this only after practicing swords."

This unexpected answer made Du Wei cry out.

"Practice, practice sword?"

006 Muscle Barbie?

Hearing Du Wei's exclamation, Emily lowered her head in embarrassment.

Du Wei didn't understand what was so embarrassing about it, it was rare for a girl to practice swords.

"You are really amazing."

"Eh?"

As if to confirm whether she had heard correctly, Emily kept secretly looking at Du Wei's expression.

"Excuse me... what did you just say?"

"Huh? I said you are really amazing."

Du Wei really admired Emily. At the same age, he could only write his own name, but Emily was practicing swords at the age of seven.

Emily lowered her head without confidence.

"Don't you think I'm weird..."

What's so weird about practicing swords?

"It's so weird, you are so cute, it's great to be a beautiful girl swordsman."

What Du Wei said was the truth. Mrs. Manel was a red-haired beauty, and Emily, as her daughter, naturally inherited that appearance.

After hearing Du Wei's answer, Emily spoke more and more quietly, and her face was a little red. Is this shy?

"But, but my hands have become so ugly, not as good-looking as those of other noble ladies."

"Can I see your hands?"

Emily hesitated obviously, but she still obediently extended the hand hidden behind her to Du Wei's face.

Those were a pair of small and exquisite palms. Du Wei couldn't imagine how hard it was for the petite Emily to wield the long sword.

"Can you tell me why you practice swords?"

Du Wei was very curious about why she practiced swordsmanship. Although the Manel family was not as large as the Farvin family, it was still a family with a long history and tradition. As the daughter of the Manel family, Miss Emily's life should be It is right to have no worries about food and clothing.

"I want to be a knight..."

This is really an unexpected answer, and it turned out to be determined to become a female knight.

Du Wei admired it very much.

"That's a really cool goal."

"Really? Don't you laugh at me?"

Emily couldn't help but raised her head and secretly looked at Du Wei's expression.

"Huh? What's so funny about this? It's a great ideal."

Du Wei really admires him. He is already striving for his life goals at a young age, which many people can't do.

"Is it great? But others laughed at me, they said how could a girl become a knight because of my face in the Domanel family..."

Those noble young masters despised her ugly hands, laughed at her that her dream would not come true, and said she was a weirdo.

Emily suddenly began to sob, remembering her sadness.

Wow, why are you crying? If someone saw this, they would think he was bullying the daughter of Man Aier's family.

Du Wei quickly took Emily's hand and looked straight into the other's eyes very sincerely, "Don't care about other people's opinions, what really matters is your own thoughts, and not everyone laughs at you, like me, I support you very much , Obviously becoming a knight is a very powerful thing.”

Seeing that Emily stopped crying gradually, Du Wei continued to pump up chicken soup for the soul.

"Maybe your hands are not as beautiful as other girls', but I'm sure your hands must be stronger than theirs, because these are hands that protect others."

"Guarding someone else's hand?"

"Yeah, the existence of knights is to protect others, so I think you are very powerful who is determined to become a knight."

"I exist to protect others..."

"That's right, so you should be proud, you can't be a knight if you cry all the time."

"Um...."

"Okay, cheer up and have confidence in yourself. The more others look down on you, the harder you have to work hard to shut them up with results!"

"I, I know, I will stick to it."

Seeing that Emily finally showed a smile, Du Wei was also relieved.

"By the way! Can you let me see the swordsmanship you are practicing?"

Emily was obviously taken aback, "Hey!? But I only practice ordinary Knox military swordsmanship."

"It's okay, I'd love to see you."

Emily hesitated for a while and finally made up her mind.

"Well, I, I see, please wait for me, Mr. Du Wei, and I will go get the sword."

After she finished speaking, she ran back to the big house.

Du Wei, who stayed in the gazebo, was looking forward to it very much. He was really curious about how the seven-year-old Emily practiced sword.

Because when Aunt Edith came home, he wanted to learn swordsmanship and magic from her, and now there happened to be a child of the same age who could watch it.

It is said that such a small child should use a wooden sword.

But soon Du Wei was dumbfounded. He saw Emily returning with a large iron sword.

The blade was taller than Du Wei's people, and judging from the reflection of the blade, it was still too sharp? !

Looking at the muscular Barbie who was waving a big sword casually and doing warm-up exercises, Du Wei couldn't help but sit a little further away.

"Hehehe, I thought it was a wooden sword." His voice was a little uneasy.

Perhaps because of excitement, Emily's face looked very rosy.

"Please don't look forward to it too much, I don't know much yet... I'm afraid I will disappoint Mr. Du Wei."

"It's okay, it's okay, I have no right to be disappointed if I haven't practiced swords yet."

I guess he can't even lift a sword...

"Then I'll make a fool of myself..."

I saw Emily walking towards a big tree beside the gazebo with her sword slanted.

Emily, with a serious expression, gave off an awe-inspiring and handsome look, which made it hard to imagine that the girl was still crying just now.

"Cross Slash!"

Following Emily's slashing action, a faint light radiated from the body of the sword, and then two staggered cut marks appeared on the body of the big tree.

After rubbing his eyes, Du Wei looked at the cross marks in front of him in disbelief, and then asked Emily to do it again.

"Cross Slash!"

Still the same result.

Du Wei walked to the big tree and touched the staggered cut marks on the tree.

"Hey, this is too fantastic..."

Emily obviously only slashed horizontally with one sword, but it could cause two staggered cut marks at the same time.

coach!He has to learn this.

"Is this the sword energy?" Du Wei looked serious.

"Sword Qi? What is that?"

Emily tilted her head and seemed to understand the meaning of sword energy.

Du Wei asked curiously

"No, I mean how did you use the cross?"

"This is the basic sword skill of Knox's military swordsmanship, and I only learned it recently."

"Sword skills?"

If this is the effect caused by magic, then Du Wei can somewhat understand it, but isn't swordsmanship purely based on physical strength?How exactly does it work to produce this effect?

"How exactly did you do it?"

"Well, that's it, and then this, and then this."

Emily used her hands and feet as if trying to convey something to him.

But Du Wei couldn't understand what she was doing at all. It seemed that it was too difficult for a seven-year-old girl to explain the principle to herself.

Just as Du Wei was racking his brains to try to unravel this principle, shouts rang out around him.

"Where are you Du Wei?"

"Master Du Wei?"

The voices of his mother Mei Ye and the servants could be heard beside him. It seemed that he hadn't returned for a long time, so they were worried and looked everywhere.

Du Wei shouted

"Mother, I'm here in the gazebo in the courtyard."

Hearing his voice, a group of people quickly rushed to the courtyard.

Mei Ye looked at Du Wei worriedly and asked.

"Honey, why did you come here?"

Facing his mother's question, Du Wei answered honestly.

"I accidentally got lost on the way back, and happened to meet Miss Emily who was resting in the gazebo, and then we chatted here."

Mrs. Manel on the side suddenly exclaimed.

"Emily! Why are you holding a sword in your hand? Didn't I say that there are distinguished guests here today?"
