Those years of falling in love with Mosaic [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 57 How to Be a Qualified Servant (1)
The sky in this city is always gloomy.Foggy rain will come as promised even in winter, revealing a bit of icy chill.The exhaled breath was white and curled up, and it drifted into the air in a blink of an eye.
The more it was at this time, the more Kou Qiu knew what the real concept of "delicate body and frail body" was.
——This basically means that colds and fevers are common.
Lying on the bed, he feebly put a veil drenched with cold water on his head, feeling extremely sad and indignant.
let me up!
I can continue to serve the people! ! !
[You can pull it down,] the system bastard poured cold water on him, [With your current body, let alone serving the people, you can basically only be the one who is served by the people. 】
It is still the evil bourgeoisie who is drunk with money.
Kou Qiu let out a breath slowly.
However, he also finally understood the reason why Ulysses was so pampered as a boy.As a premature baby, the original body has been sick and troubled almost since he was born, and his body seems to have the root cause of some disease, especially chills.Because of this, Kou Qiu almost spent the whole winter in bed.
The only good thing is that he finally got closer to Xavier.
After getting along day and night for a whole month, Xavier finally reluctantly changed the "master" who was always talking about it, and changed it to the "young master" who was a little closer.
The system said faintly: [There is a ghost here, he still dare not do anything, and let you lie on the bed and grow mushrooms. 】
Seriously, isn't this a great time to eat mushrooms?
【Washing myself once a day,】 the system said, 【After this, I almost wonder if Dad's world is going to die. 】
Kou Qiu: […]
He is now more and more suspicious of what is going on in his cub's mind.
No matter how you look at it, there seems to be nothing green and healthy.
Understand the core values of socialism. Has all the Marx I recited been fed into the dog's belly?
The system said: [No, they were all eaten by the water baby in the previous life. 】
Shaking the pot quickly, he also expressed his grief and indignation that he has not had time to study for a long time.
I want to learn, I can't wait to learn!
Kou Qiu said he didn't understand, 【You're learning? 】
The system brat was confident, [Without mosaics, how can I learn? 】
Kou Qiu: […]
Feelings The child also developed feelings for Mosaic.
There was a knock on the door, three very rhythmic knocks.
"Master." The young man knocked on the door, helped him up first, and placed two or three soft goose feather cushions behind him, and then opened the small table.Kou Qiu was stared at by a pair of extremely familiar silver-gray eyes without blinking, and his heart skipped a beat, "For today's lunch, master, do you still want to drink soup first?"
The system glanced at the soup, and immediately let out an "ohhh" in its heart.
[Just right,] it said faintly, [Cream mushroom soup, stewed white, sticky, and thick. 】
Kou Qiu: […]
For some reason, he suddenly lost his appetite for soup.
"Master?"
Seeing that he hadn't answered for a long time, Xavier hesitated for a while, and said softly "I'm sorry", and then slowly picked up the spoon himself. His wrist was trembling a little, but he still firmly fed it to Kou Qiu's mouth, gently touching it. Touching those two lips that were a little white because of illness.
Kou Qiu stared at his hand in a daze.
As an inferior person, Xavier's hands are not as smooth and flawless as Ulysses's, and there are obviously rough marks left by wind and frost on them.Xu Shi noticed his gaze, and Xavier shrank back unconsciously, and said in a low voice, "If you don't want to see it, I will start today and put on my gloves."
"what are you saying?"
After hearing this, his young master looked up at him strangely.
"What's there to cover up?" Kou Qiu said, taking the opportunity to popularize a wave of ideological education for his man, "At least, you support yourself by relying on your honest labor; unlike me, although you are a nobleman, you also It’s just a poor bastard who relies on his family to survive.”
He puffed out his chest and his eyes sparkled.
"You don't have to be ashamed, I'm the one who should be ashamed!"
After listening to this paragraph, Xavier didn't move for a long time, as if he had turned into a stone statue.After a long time, he lowered his head as if he had received a huge shock, his soft light golden hair was scattered and swept to the back of Kou Qiu's hand.
With a slight tingling itch.
"you......"
His voice seemed to be forcibly suppressing something, and after a long while, he managed to squeeze out the sound from his hoarse throat.
"You are great."
The confused old cadre Kou: "???"
Wait a minute, isn't the focus a little off?
How did this conclusion come about?
The system let out another oh, and said loudly and authentically: [Idiot fans. 】
Insane fan Xavier only loses his composure slightly during his nightly scrubbing routine.Holding the drenched soft cloth in his hand, he stroked the young man's unblemished body little by little as if touching a statue, as if caressing a young butterfly in a chrysalis that was about to spread its wings.
When he touched some places, the body under his hand, which seemed to be made by God, would tremble slightly.
Xavier's heart trembled along with it.
"All right," he whispered, "Master?"
Because he was afraid of catching cold, the white quilt still covered his upper body, and Kou Qiu only showed his legs and feet.He curled up unconsciously, subconsciously said: "Itches..."
The voices are all vague, with a kind of meaning that makes the heart tremble.
Xavier's hand froze in the air.
After a while, he continued as if nothing had happened.
It wasn't until the person on the bed breathed evenly and lightly that the young man guarding the bedside exhaled lightly and blew out the candle.
He stood in the dark for a long time, and then slowly walked out of the room.
It was like a trial given to him by the gods.
But what really disturbed him was that he never got tired of it.
"I will see you again in my dream," Xavier murmured softly when he returned to his small room to rest, and pulled up the quilt, "—my young master."
When the spring is getting brighter and brighter, the social season is coming again.The required formal attire changed from thick to thin. Kou Qiu walked to the window sill, opened the window, and could pick a few tender green leaves from the towering tree next to him as long as he stretched out his hand.
Even the thin veins on the leaves can be seen clearly.
Kou Qiu took the leaf into his hands, and before he could taste the fragrant spring air, he heard Dolores' voice from downstairs.
"Where's Yuri," she said briskly, "where's my precious nephew?"
Kou Qiu unconsciously sighed, smiled through the window, and waved to the aunt who just stepped out of the carriage below.
"What are you doing up there?" Dolores urged, waving the embroidered handkerchief in her hand at him from a distance, "Hurry up, the dance is about to begin!"
Social balls, as an essential social and entertainment activity among nobles, are almost the most important platform.Every year, the aristocratic girl who reaches the age will be led by her father and present her first dance at the ball to announce that she has officially stepped into the social world and can start talking about marriage.
"I really don't understand," Kou Qiu couldn't help whispering when Xavier silently stretched out his hand to straighten his tie, "how could there be such a boring activity?"
As a serious socialist successor, he would rather stay and enrich his spiritual food at home.
Xavier's eyes drooped, and his fingers slid around the thin straps, tying him into a perfect knot before standing upright.
"I hope you enjoy yourself," he said softly, "my lord."
Countless skirts rubbed against each other, like countless flowers placed upside down.Viscount Helun was standing among these delicate flowers. He lowered his eyes and did not look at the countless beauties around him. He just let his eyes go blank, as if he was concentrating on thinking about something.
Standing beside him was his companion who had just received the reward.
"Look at the faces of those old aristocrats," the companion sneered, "when they see us, they seem to have seen some heresy-I think they would like to roast us directly on the fire, so as not to let us who are originally born The feet of the lower classes, soiling their expensive rugs."
Viscount Heron didn't make a sound, but just shook the champagne in his hand lightly.The clear wine was ups and downs in the glass, and when it hit the wall of the glass, it made a crisp and pleasant sound.
His companion glanced around again, as if extremely bored.
"There isn't a single beauty this year," he said in a low voice, while looking around anxiously, "Why hasn't the Braden family come yet? I've heard about the reputation of their young master, and I want to see it with my own eyes." Get to know each other."
The shoulders of Viscount Helun who was beside him suddenly stiffened.
Only then did the companion think of it, and laughed a few times, and said, "I forgot that you met that young master..."
He hurriedly covered his mouth and stopped talking.
In fact, besides him, there are quite a few people waiting for the arrival of the Braden family.Beautiful things or people always make people yearn for them.What's more, Ulysses was so famous that even His Majesty the King couldn't help but praise his skin as if kissed by a god after seeing his face.
However, the long-awaited aunt and nephew did not arrive until all the guests arrived—but the moment they stepped into the hall, they couldn't even hide the countless burning candles Their dazzling light.
They don't need jewelry, they shine by themselves.
"Dolores," the hostess of the banquet stepped forward, and when she saw another figure, the smile on her lips deepened, "Ulysses, you haven't seen my daughter yet, have you?——This is love. Len."
The skin of the girl standing beside her was extremely fair and tender, and the hem of the lake blue skirt rippled like water waves, which perfectly matched her pair of blue eyes.Hearing her mother's introduction, she bent slightly and performed a standard curtsey.
Kou Qiu returned a salute to her, inadvertently caught a glimpse of the girl's blushing face, and noticed the meaningful gaze between the two women, and suddenly had a very bad feeling.
He paused for a moment, then hesitated and said: [...Nobles shouldn't marry much, right? 】
[What are you talking about, Dad?] The system boy said strangely, [The nobles don’t marry each other, so why do they want to marry commoners?Do you still expect them, the bourgeoisie, to regard people as equal? 】
Kou Qiu: […]
So sad.
It almost overwhelmed him.
Kou Qiu stared ahead, quietly said: 【But I don't want to be a liar at all. 】
The girl beside him leaned over with blushing cheeks, and she wanted to introduce the dishes to him in a soft voice, Kou Qiu gasped, and her scalp began to tingle.
Comrade, you don't have to be so close!
Just stay away from me, okay?I already have a family and really need a chaste revolutionary friendship with you! !
The girl obviously couldn't hear his voice, she still looked shy, and said softly: "It may be the first time you have come to our mansion. If you are willing, there is a beautiful church nearby. I can go to Tomorrow, I will take you for a stroll."
Senior officer Kou was speechless for a while, and then simply said, "I don't believe in God."
The girl's expression froze for a moment, as if she doubted her ears.
......what?
"Excuse me, Miss Ellen." Another familiar voice suddenly came from beside her. Kou Qiu turned his head and saw Helun appearing behind her in a well-dressed outfit. He smiled slightly at the girl. "I have something to say to Master Ulysses."
The girl's eyes drifted between the two, apparently immediately recalling their past.
She took a step back tactfully, and said, "I'll go greet the guests first."
Only the two of them looked at each other.
Kou Qiu actually didn't want to hear what Zha Gong had to say, no matter how much he said, no matter how enthusiastic he was to climb up, it couldn't compare to the fact that Ulysses had given Heron countless loves.
But the result of paying this sincere heart is not being treated with the same sincerity.
Kou Qiu felt ridiculous.
He looked at the person in front of him, and said calmly, "What does Viscount Helun want to say to me?"
Helun looked into his clear eyes, suddenly sighed softly, and said in a low voice, "Master."
Kou Qiu almost got goosebumps from these two words.
The system brat also shook his shoulders in disgust, and said in shock: 【Why does he have the face to say these two words? 】
"You're still angry with me," Helun's voice was light and light, as if he was stepping on a cloud, "isn't it?"
Kou Qiu didn't know much about it. He knew all of this, so why did he come to ask for proof?
Helun's gaze drifted into the distance on this cloud, and he said after a long time, "I used to think that you were the only one who understood me."
Those vague and distant memories seemed to come back in an instant.
Heron was not much better off than Xavier would later be when he was bought off the exchange.One of his eyes was bleeding, and a piece of flesh on his neck was torn off, bloody.
He lay on the ground, beside the vicious dog that had just died under his hands.
The foul breath was still spraying on his face.
Helun closed his eyes tiredly, warm blood flowed down his eyelids, he heard a pair of feet walking around beside him, and the leather shoes creaked.The host waved his hands excitedly, and said, "Seven gallons!—Eight gallons! Is there any adult who wants to buy him? Look, all the strength!"
Those high-ranking nobles judged him as if they were judging an animal that couldn't understand them at all.Helun pressed his head firmly to the ground, and could almost feel his muscles convulsing crazily again and again.
At that time, only Ulysses stood up from his box without thinking.
At that time, he was three or four years younger than he is now. The 15-year-old Ulysses witnessed this tragic scene with his own eyes. He stood up in the greenhouse without any hesitation.
"I want to buy him," he said, slowly taking off a gold ring from his hand, "how much?"
That scene is still firmly engraved in Helun's mind until now.
He knew from then on that he never wanted to continue to be a livestock that was bought and sold at will.
——What he also wanted to do was someone like Ulysses.
He wants to manipulate the life and death of others.
"You are clearly aware of my ambition," Helun said with a wry smile, "and why are you angry about it?"
Kou Qiu just looked at him indifferently, and didn't mean to answer his words.Under the candlelight, the young man pursed his lips and said, "Viscount Helun came today, didn't he just want to tell me this?"
Helun was startled, and then said: "Of course."
He looked into the eyes of the young master Bitou, and suddenly looked left and right.
No one came near.His voice was also lowered.
"My young master," he said softly, "I may have learned a secret that even you don't know..."
Helun narrowed his eyes slightly, meaning something.
"Perhaps, your identity is not as simple as you imagined? Perhaps, you have an opportunity to go one step further than before?"
His breath was sprayed over, with a self-suppressed self-satisfaction inside, and the urgent ambition almost burned Kou Qiu's ears red.
Kou Qiu already had a faint suspicion in his heart, but his expression remained calm.Just said: "What secret?"
Helun smiled lightly, and tapped his fingers slowly on Kou Qiu's knuckles.
"The secret—"
He said.
"Before, it was hidden in Mrs. Dolores' ring."
The system let out a long sigh.
"So," Kou Qiu raised his eyebrows, "it was Viscount Helun who let Ive steal the note before?"
Caught off guard by pointing out this matter, Helun was stunned unknowingly.
"how do you--"
He originally thought that this matter was written by Dolores.After living in Brydon's house for three years, he couldn't understand Dolores' protection of this nephew, so how could he tell such a dangerous secret to Ulysses who had never seen any storms?
"What do you want me to do," Kou Qiu said calmly, "Bring it to you?"
Helun managed to regain his composure, and said, "You are misinterpreting my meaning."
His fingers clenched the cup even harder, until his knuckles turned white.
"It's just that if you want to take a step forward, I will naturally spare no effort to help you," Helun said. "After all, you are kind to me, so why should you doubt my loyalty?"
"..." Kou Qiu felt as if he had heard a big joke.
A person who was the first to betray, now came to talk to him about loyalty?
Helun sighed wearily, but seemed sincere, and said, "I can help you better only if I stand in a higher position."
Veteran officer Kou: "..."
Wow, then you betrayed me for my sake.Then you are awesome, do you want me to applaud you?
The system also sharpened its sword, saying: [He should be glad that the successor of socialism doesn't beat people. 】
Otherwise, I would have already played with the host and punched it directly.
"I don't doubt loyalty," Kou Qiu said, adding the next sentence in Helun's suddenly relaxed voice, "I just doubt you, Viscount Helun. After all, you don't have such a thing as loyalty."
Helun's expression froze, and then he smiled wryly, "How can you understand the suffering of inferior people like us!"
"Please don't use inferior people as a cover for yourself," Kou Qiu said with a straight figure, "Speaking of loyalty, I still have a few debts, which I have to settle with the Viscount slowly. Back then, I bought you the Viscount in the exchange. You swore an oath of eternal loyalty to me when you made it, but after a few years, you forgot all about that oath and turned to someone else--didn't you?"
The man was shocked by the sharpness in his eyes, and felt a little hesitant for a while.
"That is......"
"I issued an order of freedom for the Viscount, released the Viscount as a slave, and even gave the Viscount a name. But now, Viscount, you are bearing the name I gave you at that time, but you have never visited or thanked you once again, Yes or no?"
"I bought another person in the exchange, and the Viscount also wanted to make a move. He sent a servant to contact him quietly, and wanted to take the person away halfway—isn't it?"
The commotion was getting louder and louder, and many people around had looked over.It was rare for the ladies and ladies to see such a loud noise among the nobles, they were all discussing for a while, and they wanted to step forward to dissuade them, but seeing Kou Qiu's calm, unchanging expression, they felt flustered again.
The more it was at this time, the more Kou Qiu knew what the real concept of "delicate body and frail body" was.
——This basically means that colds and fevers are common.
Lying on the bed, he feebly put a veil drenched with cold water on his head, feeling extremely sad and indignant.
let me up!
I can continue to serve the people! ! !

"You are clearly aware of my ambition," Helun said with a wry smile, "and why are you angry about it?"
Kou Qiu just looked at him indifferently, and didn't mean to answer his words.Under the candlelight, the young man pursed his lips and said, "Viscount Helun came today, didn't he just want to tell me this?"
Helun was startled, and then said: "Of course."
He looked into the eyes of the young master Bitou, and suddenly looked left and right.
No one came near.His voice was also lowered.
"My young master," he said softly, "I may have learned a secret that even you don't know..."
Helun narrowed his eyes slightly, meaning something.
"Perhaps, your identity is not as simple as you imagined? Perhaps, you have an opportunity to go one step further than before?"
His breath was sprayed over, with a self-suppressed self-satisfaction inside, and the urgent ambition almost burned Kou Qiu's ears red.
Kou Qiu already had a faint suspicion in his heart, but his expression remained calm.Just said: "What secret?"
Helun smiled lightly, and tapped his fingers slowly on Kou Qiu's knuckles.
"The secret—"
He said.
"Before, it was hidden in Mrs. Dolores' ring."
The system let out a long sigh.
"So," Kou Qiu raised his eyebrows, "it was Viscount Helun who let Ive steal the note before?"
Caught off guard by pointing out this matter, Helun was stunned unknowingly.
"how do you--"
He originally thought that this matter was written by Dolores.After living in Brydon's house for three years, he couldn't understand Dolores' protection of this nephew, so how could he tell such a dangerous secret to Ulysses who had never seen any storms?
"What do you want me to do," Kou Qiu said calmly, "Bring it to you?"
Helun managed to regain his composure, and said, "You are misinterpreting my meaning."
His fingers clenched the cup even harder, until his knuckles turned white.
"It's just that if you want to take a step forward, I will naturally spare no effort to help you," Helun said. "After all, you are kind to me, so why should you doubt my loyalty?"
"..." Kou Qiu felt as if he had heard a big joke.
A person who was the first to betray, now came to talk to him about loyalty?
Helun sighed wearily, but seemed sincere, and said, "I can help you better only if I stand in a higher position."
Veteran officer Kou: "..."
Wow, then you betrayed me for my sake.Then you are awesome, do you want me to applaud you?
The system also sharpened its sword, saying: [He should be glad that the successor of socialism doesn't beat people. 】
Otherwise, I would have already played with the host and punched it directly.
"I don't doubt loyalty," Kou Qiu said, adding the next sentence in Helun's suddenly relaxed voice, "I just doubt you, Viscount Helun. After all, you don't have such a thing as loyalty."
Helun's expression froze, and then he smiled wryly, "How can you understand the suffering of inferior people like us!"
"Please don't use inferior people as a cover for yourself," Kou Qiu said with a straight figure, "Speaking of loyalty, I still have a few debts, which I have to settle with the Viscount slowly. Back then, I bought you the Viscount in the exchange. You swore an oath of eternal loyalty to me when you made it, but after a few years, you forgot all about that oath and turned to someone else--didn't you?"
The man was shocked by the sharpness in his eyes, and felt a little hesitant for a while.
"That is......"
"I issued an order of freedom for the Viscount, released the Viscount as a slave, and even gave the Viscount a name. But now, Viscount, you are bearing the name I gave you at that time, but you have never visited or thanked you once again, Yes or no?"
"I bought another person in the exchange, and the Viscount also wanted to make a move. He sent a servant to contact him quietly, and wanted to take the person away halfway—isn't it?"
The commotion was getting louder and louder, and many people around had looked over.It was rare for the ladies and ladies to see such a loud noise among the nobles, they were all discussing for a while, and they wanted to step forward to dissuade them, but seeing Kou Qiu's calm, unchanging expression, they felt flustered again.
