After Captain Gale left, Yang Yi took the note and went out. When it was almost noon, there were not many people in the post office.Yang Yi went to the telegraph operator he knew well, handed him the note and said, "I have a friend who wants me to help send a telegram. Hurry up, I have to go to lunch later."

"Do you still have friends who can send telegrams?" The telegraph operator said with a smile. Now those who can send telegrams are all rich people, and ordinary people write letters.

"What should I do if I can't post it? It's been too long since I wrote the letter. He wants to take a vacation while he's free. After the letter is over, the vacation will be over." Yang Yi shrugged and said.

The operator opened the note and looked at it, then looked at Yang Yi with some doubts, "You have friends who can afford to go to America, why are you here as a postman?"

"That money is not mine, and I think he will only have the chance to go to the United States once in his life. I don't care about it at all." Yang Yi knocked on the table with his hand and said with a smile: "You should send it quickly. , I'm starving to death, and I can't work if I don't eat something."

"Come on, I'll send it to you right now, pay the money." The telegraph operator said while holding the note in one hand and fiddling with the telegraph machine in the other.

Yang Yi did not leave, but waited for the operator to send the telegram, and then took the note back before paying the money for the telegram.But when he paid the money, he realized that Captain Gale did not send him the money for the telegram.

On the other side of Von Trapp's house, the children found that their tutor Maria was missing after getting up. They only found a farewell letter on Maria's bedside table.

The children rushed to the living room with letters in their hands. Captain Gale was chatting with Max about the Salzburg Music Festival.Max thought that the children could form a von Trapp family choir to perform. He thought that if the children went up to perform, it would definitely have a sensational effect.It's a pity that Captain Gale firmly opposes his children performing on stage. He thinks it is very embarrassing to perform on stage as an aristocrat.

"Father, Miss Maria is missing. We looked in her closet, and there was no clothes in it. She only left this letter." Lisa ran over and handed the letter to Captain Gale with a look on her face. Said anxiously.

"She left without permission?" Captain Gail frowned, opened the letter and read it, and then said to the children with a straight face: "Maria doesn't think she is suitable to be a tutor, she said she would go back to the monastery to study. Xi has gone. You don’t have to worry.”

"But father, Miss Maria still wants to teach us to sing. She said that there are still many songs to teach us." Gertel said with a wrinkled face while grabbing Captain Gale's sleeve.

"But Miss Maria wants to go back to the monastery. We can't tie her up at home, can't we? She may not feel happy staying in our house." Captain Gale said as he stuffed the letter into his pocket.

"Why not happy, Miss Maria was very happy to dance with us last night!" Marta said disappointedly, she thought Maria would always be with them.

"Okay, kids, go play in the yard, and don't interfere with the adults' affairs." Captain Gale didn't care about the little troubles of the children, he waved his hands and stood up and said.

The children had no choice but to go to the backyard, where they were bored playing with the ball.Baroness Schrader feels that she is very prescient. The children already like Maria very much. If Maria stays at Von Trapp's house, Captain Gail may refer to the children's opinions when it comes to marriage. .

After the ball last night, Baroness Schrader did not rest, but went to talk to Maria, as the future hostess of this family.

At that time, Baroness Schrader told Maria that after she and Captain Gail got married, there would be no need for a tutor at home, so she reminded Maria to make plans as soon as possible, so that she would not have a job after leaving von Trapp's house.And Baroness Schreider said to Maria that if Maria was not a nun, with her beauty, she would definitely introduce some good boys to her.

Of course, Maria could hear the meaning of Baroness Schrader. She wanted to leave after talking with Captain Gail the next day, but thinking of how cold Captain Gail treated her, Maria felt aggrieved, so she packed up her things No matter what, just leave a letter and leave.

Captain Gale didn't care about Maria's departure, he only cared about whether Yang Yi would send a telegram for him.In fact, based on Captain Gale's rational considerations, he would not hand over the note with the content of the telegram to a boy he had known for a few days. good.But in his heart, Captain Gail felt that the boy who talked about the situation with him as soon as they met was quite reliable, and there was actually nothing suspicious in that note, so Captain Gail asked Yang Yi to do him a favor It is not incomprehensible.

The day finally ended in a dull atmosphere. Captain Gale took a rare walk in the back garden after dinner, because he thought Yang Yi might come here tonight.

After Baroness Schrader saw it, she dressed up and followed into the back garden.

"Gal, what's bothering you?"

"Aisha, what do you think of the two of us?" Captain Gale asked while sitting on the stool, looking at Baroness Schrader.

"Gail, what are you talking about, aren't we getting married? Are you nervous." Baroness Schrader glanced at Captain Gail and said.

"Aisha, I don't think we are suitable."

"We've known each other for so long, but you never said we're not suitable." Baroness Schrader was a little nervous, and now she was beginning to worry that driving Maria away would have the opposite effect.

"Yeah, because we don't have a deep relationship, it's just a coincidence." Captain Gail said with a smile.

"Gail, what exactly are you trying to say? I don't think that Miss Maria is the right person for you. She doesn't adapt to the life of aristocrats."

"Miss Maria! This has nothing to do with Miss Maria."

"Then why do you say we're not suitable?"

"Do you know what I did when I left last night at the ball?"

"You said you were discussing the children's problems."

"No, it's not. I received a telegram last night. A friend of mine was killed because he didn't want to serve in the German army." Captain Gale said with a sullen face.

"God, how is it possible, the German army has not occupied Austria yet!" Baroness Schrader said in disbelief covering her mouth.

"Yeah, they started killing people before it was occupied. If it is occupied, Aisha, what do you think they will do to those who disobey the German army?" Captain Gail asked with a sarcastic smile.

"Gail, what do you want to do?" Baroness Schrader, who knew Captain Gale's position very well, immediately asked anxiously.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything extreme. I plan to take the children to the United States, but I know you can't let go of things here, so I think it's better for us not to get married."

"Gail." Baroness Schrader looked at Captain Gail and began to calculate the gains and losses in her heart. Finally, she smiled and said: "You are right, I think we are not suitable. You can leave the industry here for the motherland , but I can't."

"Aisha, thank you, but I think you should go back to Vienna as soon as possible. It's not good to get too close to me." Captain Gail said with a sigh of relief. He knew that Baroness Schrader really liked him, so I was a little worried that Baroness Schrader would be unwilling.

"Well, I think I have to find a suitable marriage partner as soon as possible." Baroness Schrader stood up, raised her chin proudly and said: "I will leave tomorrow. Goodbye, Captain Gail, I hope that in the future When we meet, stand beside you a wife who suits you." After speaking, Bian straightened his back and left quickly.

Yang Yi came out from the bushes, walked to Captain Gale and sat down, looked at the man and asked, "Are you really not sad at all?"

"I just chose the best path for both of us." Captain Gail looked up at the sky and said. He had thought about life after marrying Baroness Schrader before, but now everything can only be a fantasy.

"Here, I have already sent a telegram for you. The other party thought it was sent by a friend of mine with some money. The receiving address I left is my home. When the time comes, I will send the telegram to you." Yang Yi said The small note in the pocket was returned to Captain Gale.

"Thank you, Rove, you are a nice young man." Captain Gale looked up at the note in his hand, smiled and praised.

"You're welcome, you just need to return the money you owe me for the telegram." Yang Yi said indifferently.

"Of course. But you may have to go upstairs with me, because I don't have any money with me." Captain Gale said regretfully after digging out his pocket.

"Whatever, just give me the money. The telegram is quite expensive." Yang Yi pouted. He didn't care about the money, but he always felt that he was helping Captain Gale in vain, but he still paid for it. It's a bit aggrieved to have to pay yourself back.

"Then follow me, young man." Captain Gale patted Yang Yi's shoulder with a smile, and walked to the front.

Yang Yi followed Captain Gale into his study room. If Yang Yi was a little nervous when he came here last time, then this time he is completely confident.Ignoring Captain Gale who had already started to open the drawers, Yang Yi looked around the study room, then walked to the bookcase with a saber hanging on it, pointed at the saber that looked like an antique and asked: "Is this a sword?" May I have a look at the sword?"

"I advise you not to look at it, this sword is very sharp." Captain Gale took some money from the drawer and put it on the table, then leaned back on the back of the chair and said with envious eyes on Yang Yi.

"Come on, I'm good at swordsmanship, and only sharp swords are pleasing to the eye." Yang Yi glanced at Captain Gale with contempt, then took off the sword politely, pulled it out and looked at it, this sword It should be at least 200 years old, and the sword should have seen blood.

"Rove, you'd better go home quickly, this sword is very dangerous."

"Captain, I'm just checking, there's no danger, don't be so stingy." Yang Yi curled his lips, hung up his sword, walked to the table and took the money on it and stuffed it into his pocket. When he was about to leave, he suddenly He tripped, slipped his foot and fell on the table, hitting his head on Captain Gale's chin.

"Rove, what's wrong with you?" Captain Gale stood up holding his chin, intending to help Rove up, but Yang Yi's stomach hit the table leg, and he gasped in pain.

"There's something under the table." Yang Yi grinned.

Captain Gale bent down and saw Ferrick and Kurt under his desk, Kurt's feet were still sticking out, obviously it was his feet that tripped Yang Yi just now.

"Come out, you two!" Captain Gale yelled, helping Yang Yi onto a stool beside him.

Yang Yi bent over and sat on the stool, feeling that his hands were a little wet, and when he took them away, he saw blood oozing from his shirt.

Seeing Yang Yi stunned, Captain Gale pulled up Yang Yi's shirt, only to see that Yang Yi's right abdomen was hit by a table leg with a large piece of skin, and the wound is bleeding now.

"Ferrick, go and ask Frans to prepare the medical kit. Kurt, go and ask Monsmead to pack a room. Get out immediately." Captain Gale shouted, staring at his two sons.

"How are you feeling, Rob?"

Yang Yi gasped, wiped the blood with his shirt, and said, "At least there is no internal bleeding from the collision, but it really hurts."

Captain Gale glanced at his desk, and for the first time found that the toes of his desk were not pleasing to the eye.

For the medical kit that Frans quickly brought, Captain Gale simply applied medicine to Yang Yi, then bandaged him, and said, "You can stay here tonight, and I will take you to the hospital tomorrow."

"It's just scratching the skin, don't make a fuss." Yang Yi shook his head.

"The wound is quite big. I'll go to the hospital for treatment tomorrow. Frans, take Mr. Rove to the guest room to rest. I have to ask Ferrick and Kurt why they are hiding under my desk." Gail The captain said disapprovingly, when he applied the potion just now, he felt that Yang Yi was seriously injured, and he had to go to the hospital no matter what.
