Jonathan was not in the mood to flirt with her today, he just sat down on the sofa beside him, and then asked, "Did you visit that lady from the East today?"
Coriniya raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, with a teasing smile on her face: "What? Did you see her?"
For Coriniya, perhaps she also had love when she was young.But time is cruel, and it slowly lifts the bright veil of something, revealing the ugly and terrible truth underneath.
And love is like this for Coriniya.
So now that she has many lovers, she is very clear about the relationship between them, and she will not feel sad or angry about it.
Jonathan didn't answer this question, but asked, "What are you talking about? She—what kind of person is she?"
Coriniya adjusted a comfortable sitting posture, looked at him with a smile, and said, "She has a gentle personality and treats people kindly. At first glance, she seems a little cold, with no expression on her face, but she is actually a very gentle person! "
So gentle that even though she looked very tired, she didn't show any impatience with those boring topics.
In the end, even she herself was ashamed to continue embarrassing this woman who had faintly overwhelmed her once she arrived in Freeport.
Jonathan couldn't help but put a smile on his face when he heard that.
Yes, he looks noble and cold, but he is actually a kind person.
She was not a bit different from what he imagined her to be.
"As for what we talked about, you wouldn't be interested - women's topics, nothing more than clothes, jewelry and men."
Jonathan couldn't help frowning when he heard the word man.He knew that a woman like Corinia wouldn't mind talking about it anywhere, but the lady—
Coriniya admired his expression with great interest for a long time before she chuckled and said, "I also invited her to the banquet at Theodore's mansion tonight, will you go?"
Jonathan sat up straight when he heard Theodore's mansion, looked at Coriniya in shock, and asked, "Theodore? Did you invite her to that kind of banquet? Did she agree?"
"That kind? What kind?" Coriniya asked, curling the corners of her lips, "Don't you like this kind of banquet the most? Especially the carnival at midnight, you have never left behind!"
Jonathan's breathing almost stopped.
A ball like that—as soon as she enters the arena, she will probably be torn to pieces and swallowed by the men.
Thinking of such a scene, Jonathan felt hot all over, but his heart was cold.
No, he couldn't let her go!
Jonathan didn't even say hello, stood up and planned to rush to Spencer's mansion, the largest hotel in Freeport.
Seeing his nervous and hasty pace, Keliniya couldn't help laughing again: "I'm lying to you! Mrs. Shen's husband just passed away, and she said it was inconvenient for her to attend the banquet."
Jonathan paused, turned around and looked at Corinia who was trembling with laughter, and it took a long time to realize what she was saying.
He stood there angry and happy, pointed at the other party and scolded with a smile: "How can you make fun of this kind of thing? It's about Mrs. Shen's reputation, you can't play around like this anymore!"
"Okay! I'm just telling you." Keriniya finally stopped laughing, but still said with a faint smile on her face, "If you have a heart for her, you can act now. She With her beauty and wealth, I'm afraid she will attract a large number of suitors in just a few days. It will be difficult for you to stand out by then."
This is true.The existence of the primogeniture system itself is to keep the family wealth from being dispersed.Therefore, many families will give their other sons a little bit of property after they grow up, and send them out, and they are not allowed to consume the family's resources anymore.
Many of the noble children of noble birth chose to pursue widows because they could not adapt to the sudden drop in living standards—or their parents would have found rich wives for them before then.Therefore, in the marriage market, widows with huge inheritances are often more popular than unmarried girls.
But Jonathan hadn't intended to marry the widow.Although he can't inherit the family business, what he owns now is more than what his elder brother will inherit in the future - even the land, he has been slowly accumulating.
Such a family background allowed him to choose a noble and pure unmarried girl—this is the reason why he has not married so far.
In Freeport, if you want to find a pure noble girl who is not so boring and stereotyped, it is probably more difficult than letting the nun go to heaven.
Under the open atmosphere of the free port, as long as a certain suitor can win the favor of a girl, it is not difficult to kiss Fangze.Even Jonathan himself has had dewy marriages with many unmarried ladies - there are several close suitors like him,
And there may be only one of him.
While he was pondering, Coriniya opened the two boxes on the coffee table in front of him, revealing the items inside.
Jonathan looked at the familiar items in front of him, and instantly understood the source of these items.
"She gave it to you?" Jonathan turned around and asked.
Coriniya took out one of the hairpins, and saw that it was twisted with extremely thin gold wires to form several flowers of different shapes that were close together, and on it were inlaid with small gemstones. The stamens, and several beads are hanging down with silk threads.Corinia was amazed by its workmanship and design.
She asked the servant to hold the mirror, and compared herself with inserting the hairpin into the hair hanging behind her back, she turned to Jonathan and asked, "Does it look good?"
Jonathan looked at her nondescript appearance, and looked back at her with black lines on his face.
"Hahaha! I know this is stupid." Even Coriniya laughed and bent over, putting down the hairpin for the servant to put away.
Jonathan said at this time, "Didn't you say you wanted to become a shareholder of my fleet last time? How about it, do you still want to?"
Coriniya's movements froze, she turned her head to look carefully at Jonathan's expression, and then asked seriously, "What do you want?"
Let a man occasionally send her some jewelry, which is something they are more than happy.But when it comes to their business or property, things are not so simple.
As a widow, Coriniya didn't have much inheritance. She lived a luxurious life and spent a lot of money these years.Although there are subsidies from lovers, they still cannot make ends meet.
Some time ago, she wanted to find a business to invest in, so as to make some money.But when she mentioned it to Jonathan, he flatly rejected it. Unexpectedly, he brought it up now.
Jonathan glanced at the two boxes on the table, and then said to Corinia: "These things are not suitable for you, you might as well give them to me. My fleet will set off soon Ma Empire, I will count the goods of one of your ships, and all the dinars sold will belong to you. And you don’t need to spend a penny.”
Although it wasn't the long-term business that Corinia expected, a shipment of goods didn't require her to invest capital, which would be a huge profit.
Coriniya readily pushed the two boxes towards Jonathan, and said to him with a smile: "It's yours, the infatuated!"
And the next morning, she went to visit new friends with gifts.
What she wanted to give to Mrs. Shen was one of her collections - a unique and exquisite necklace.
Passing through a group of noble children blocked in the hall, Coriniya was welcomed into the inner room under the jealous eyes of the men for the first time.
Of course, Mrs. Shen was very surprised by her gift, and then invited her to watch an opera—of course it couldn't be a real opera, half a month is not enough to cultivate a real opera actor.
But drama can!
In Simena, opera has only just appeared so far—that is, an art form that expresses plots and thoughts through music and various singing styles throughout the process.
This kind of performance pays more attention to the singing skills of the actors and the appeal of the music rather than the plot. In fact, in Yang Yuan's view, it is more like a large-scale concert.
But considering that people nowadays are more adaptable to this kind of performance mode, he also added music and singing parts to this drama, so the current drama is actually more like a modern musical - this is still thanks to the elf Jacques.
However, due to time constraints, he just asked his friends to arrange a few casually. Anyway, when it comes to the plot, as long as the story is well told, it can cover up many other flaws.
The story is actually very simple.
It is about an oriental woman who was born in a noble family and was rescued by an exotic young man who traveled across the ocean to take risks in an accident. The two fell in love deeply and couldn't extricate themselves during several short encounters.
However, due to the identity of the young man—a foreigner, but in the eyes of the locals, he is still a worthless commoner—the girl's parents did not agree with their marriage, and arranged another fiancé for the girl.
Both of them were in great pain for this-this was a major tear-jerking scene, and the two met in various ways secretly, holding each other and crying, etc.In the end, it was said that the girl even wanted to die for it, but was stopped by the young man in a hurry at the critical moment.
Moved by the girl's love, the young man finally gritted his teeth and sold the only set of armor left by his ancestors, replacing it with a boatload of local specialties, and then waved goodbye to his lover and sailed back to his hometown.
He promised her that he would come back with a boatload of gold to marry her—of course it was impossible, a boatload of gold could push the boat into the Mariana Trench.
The girl stood on the pier, watching her lover go away with tears on her face-this is the end of this story.
Coriniya was completely fascinated by the story, and she didn't realize that she, too, was tear-stained until the end of the story.
She smiled at Yang Yuan embarrassingly, got up and hurriedly went to the bathroom next to her to freshen up, and then came out and sighed to Yang Yuan: "I have never seen such a performance, it is really too—too Amazing."
When human beings have thoughts, there are stories.For a child who is just opening his mind, there is nothing that attracts him more than a story.It is a more magical existence than music. As long as the audience can identify with it, it can make people completely intoxicated during the performance of the story.
And the two main characters in this story—the daughter of a nobleman whose fate is controlled by the family and a downcast son of a nobleman who is looking for a way out—both deeply touch the main audience of the huge market in Freeport—struggling to be The dullness of the family arrangement may even be the noble lady in the painful marriage, the unmarried girl who is about to enter this miserable situation, and the noble children who are forced to leave the family and come to Freeport to find a way out.
