At this time, the people in the Nat family could not sit still at all.
"What the hell is he trying to do?" Mrs. Nut fanned her fan vigorously and said angrily, "That Vivienne is just a little prettier, and he has to go to her for three days? He doesn't love him that much. The fiancee of the sick ghost? Why don't you care about her feelings at all now?"
"Aren't all men like this?" Janice said coldly as she sat aside.Just like Joyce, even though he still loves Emily in his heart, didn't he marry her?
"But there is still a marriage contract between him and our Nina! How can he not say a word now, wandering around other women every day?" Mrs. Nat almost shouted this sentence.
In fact, she doesn't care who this rich gentleman likes, but she cares very much whether he will fulfill the marriage contract!
"It's all the damn Harold's fault! If it wasn't for his appearance, my Nina would have gotten the ring that night!" Mrs. Nut said through gritted teeth.
"Mom, there's nothing I can do about it. Who made my sister not look pretty enough? If I had been allowed to go, maybe I would have succeeded now!" Beverly said sarcastically.
"Come on, let you go? Haven't you been there? I wonder if that rich gentleman gave you perfume and invited you to see flowers?" Nina finally couldn't help it, and sneered at her sister.
"Ha! Yes, he didn't, but what about you? You won this engagement by pleasing a woman, but in the end, it was just as empty as mine?" Beverly said unconvinced.
"Enough! Do you know the seriousness of this matter?" Earl Nat yelled at the chattering women irritably, then glared at them, and strode away with a wave of his hands.
Back in the study, Earl Nat discussed with his two sons for a long time before finally making a decision.
That day, Vivienne returned home from Lake Boya under the escort of Roger, and excitedly told her mother about the magic of the flute made by the elf tree.
Duncan and his wife looked at their daughter with satisfaction, and they were already imagining how to spend the [-] dinars in their hearts.
Unexpectedly, that night, a fire broke out at Duncan's house, and the family of three was almost burned to death on the bed.
And when Vivian was rescued, she was burnt beyond recognition.
Roger ran over in a hurry that night and saw that her entire face was wrapped in gauze, and blood seeped out, making her entire head look blood red.
And her mother, Sarah, was holding her hand and almost fainted from crying.
He stood among the rushing ambulance personnel for a long time, but he didn't dare to approach him.
He did not expect that Earl Nat would use this method to protect his own interests.
Roger stayed there all night, and after returning to Ruhrburg, he never looked for Vivienne again.
The incident was like a speck of dust in the sun, conspicuous but insignificant.
Soon, Ruhrburg restored its former calm.
On the other side, Janice's husband, Joyce Dale, also came to Ruhrburg.
For Joyce's arrival, people in the Nat family have different attitudes.Mrs. Nat entertained Joyce very warmly, but Earl Nat did not come out to meet him.
Earl Nat's two sons were also very cold towards Joyce, but it was Janice's two younger sisters who welcomed the arrival of the brother-in-law as they should.
As for Janice, while she was happy, she also felt apprehensive and hesitant.
In the previous relationship after marriage, she could clearly feel that Joyce still had Emily in his heart.And it was so long after she came back that Joyce came to Ruhrburg - only a few days after Harold came back.
She had a hard time convincing herself that Joyce was there for her.
And the purpose of Joyce's trip was indeed not for Janice.
He brought bad news to Ruhrburg. Kolbaugh's neighbor, the Phipps family of Badgar, bribed a certain minister of the royal capital, and obtained the territory certificate given by the other party, proving that the town of Pullen The three villages to the north were all owned by the Phipps family—this basically settled the territorial dispute between the two families.
Although the royal court's control over the major lords is declining day by day, when such disputes arise, the royal court has a detached position and can often play a decisive role.
Earl Nat was furious when he found out.The dispute between them and the Phipps family has been going on for a long time, and they have always been evenly matched. I didn't expect Phipps to spend such a fortune for the three villages.
You must know that those guys in the capital are all used to taking advantage of it. If you want them to make a move, it is impossible without tens of thousands of dinars.
"Then what should we do now? We can't really give them those three villages, can we? Is there no room for change?" Earl Nat's son Davis asked anxiously. It's his territory!
Those three villages were near the town of Pullen, bigger and richer than the others, and brought more taxes to Ruhrburg.If they are taken away by the Phipps family in this way, they will suffer a great loss!
"I heard that the person they found this time is a supporter of the new king. He has contributed a lot in this battle for the throne, and now he is very talkative in front of His Majesty the King." Joyce Dale said with a serious face.
"This damned Phipps!" Earl Nat gritted his teeth and said bitterly.
Even if he wanted to lose these three villages, he still didn't want that old guy to succeed!
Even if he gets those lands, he will make him lose everything!
Thinking of this, a gloomy look appeared on his face.
That night, he went through the tunnel and found the magician Ke Leiji in the underground laboratory.
Corregie hesitated for a while about Earl Nat's sudden generosity.
Of course he hoped that there would be more places to raise corpses, the better, especially after he just lost one.But that miss also made him a little hesitant, for fear that he would be discovered by the Holy Court or a certain archmage.
But it has been almost two months since the incident happened, and no one came to the door, and he started to move around.
The reason why he chose to come to this remote place was that the Holy Court could not reach this place, and even if something happened to the king's capital, they were unlikely to come here.
that's the truth.After he helped the current Earl of Nut to obtain the ownership of this territory, he also gained a lot of benefits-not only got half of Kolbaugh's tax offering, but also got a corpse.
It's a pity that he had just harvested a batch, and the corpse farm was destroyed.As for the ghouls that come out of the corpse farm, the later they are cultivated, the more powerful they become.The batch he has now is almost useless, it is useless, at most it is used to scare people.
Now that Earl Nat said he would give him three lands for mortuary, it was really hard for him not to be tempted.Of course, he also knew that there must be a reason for this Earl Nat's sudden generosity, but that had nothing to do with him.
The most important thing for him now is to go outside to collect some materials, and then go to the three corpses to arrange them properly.
Emily knew about Joyce's arrival earlier than everyone else.
It's just that neither of them went to see each other. Instead, Roger invited Joyce to go hunting together.
On the second day, Earl Nat's eldest son Davis enthusiastically took the two guests to Mar Forest next to Ruhrburg, where their Nat family's manor was also located.
And the men and women who came here after hearing the news also followed in the carriage, and it was very lively for a while.
Since Milton took over Korbaf, he has forbidden the nearby villagers to hunt in the Mull Forest.In autumn, the animals are all fat and strong, which is a good season for hunting.
Roger saw some ragged villagers along the way, and when he saw their chariots and horses, he avoided them far away.He originally thought that he could see a lot of farmland on the road in such a season, but he didn't expect that most of them would become wasteland.
"These poor people usually only know how to be lazy. When it comes to farming, none of them are willing to move. This year, we caught a lot of people who ran into the Mull Forest to poach, and we hanged them all!" Davis frowned. Looking at those people, he turned to Roger and said, "Surely there are no such people in your place? It is because of them that Korbaf will become poorer and poorer. He only knows how to eat and eat, and the grass on the ground is covered by them. Finished!"
Roger didn't like this kind of person either.
In his opinion, the truly devout believers are worthy of being saved by Fan Luosi.These foolish men and women who only know how to gnaw the ground and have nothing else in their minds, after death, they are only worthy of going to the desolate hell that Fan Luosi can't see-if there is one.
Looking at the twenty armored knights behind him, it was a different feeling to see these people.
Once upon a time, they were one of these people, even more miserable—they got to the point of eating corpses.
But now, they are sitting on tall horses, wearing armor, eating delicious food, and now they are going to the Mar Forest, where they were not allowed to enter before, to hunt for fun.
Even their family members are also protected by the half-length goddess.The incarnation of the goddess in the world not only drove away the demons for them, but also gave them food that could never be eaten--the potato stems transplanted from the goddess's kingdom, which had matured before they set off, just a few pieces However, they harvested more grain than their village could eat in a year, and this was only a one-season harvest.
The goddess said, potato stalks can be planted for three seasons a year!Three seasons!The potato stalks harvested in one year can probably fill everyone's house!Moreover, the goddess also taught them how to restore soil fertility. Plant ashes, animal ashes, that is, human and animal feces can be used to restore soil fertility after a period of time.
Although the goddess said that the land needs more maintenance on weekdays, even if it is planted twice a year, it can still be used to grow some beans in between.This will not only add one more dish to the family, but it is also a way to restore soil strength!It's really amazing!
And all of this was brought to them by the half-length goddess.
It wasn't until now that they realized that the real gods would never send divine punishment just because of a moment of joy or anger.The real god is kind and generous, treats all people equally, suffers for their suffering, rejoices for their joy—even willing to sacrifice himself for them.
Thinking of this, the leader of the twenty people - Grant, the grandson of the village chief Wood, tightly grasped the hand of the rein, and looked forward with his mouth pursed.
So now, it's time for them to repay the goddess.
This day a group of people had a great time, but at the end of the day, a group of wolves suddenly appeared in the forest.
Even though the men fought bravely, many people were still killed and injured.Especially those ladies who sit sideways on horses just to show off their graceful figures under their riding outfits have almost no ability to resist in such a crisis.
The knights brought by Roger helped everyone a lot, and they were the ones who were injured the most, but many people were still in danger.Especially Norris Nat's little granddaughter Afra, although she reacted quickly and changed her sitting position on the horse, and quickly rode the horse and ran, trying to avoid these wolves.
But I don't know why a large part of these wolves seemed to be targeting her, biting her ass, which scared her so much that she almost cried.
And Roger, who was not far away from her, saw this scene, raised his sword and rode his horse up without thinking.While following Afra, he kept killing the wolves behind her, but this seemed to arouse the bloodiness of the wolves, and more wolves rushed towards them.
Aphra panicked and didn't know where she ran to. When she realized it, she had indeed reached a cliff.
The horse was also quite frightened in such a situation, it couldn't stop all of a sudden, and it was about to rush down the cliff with Afra.
Seeing that Aphra was about to die, Roger rushed towards her, grabbed her hand tightly, but fell off the cliff together with her.
