Chapter 454: Status and Money


Cheng Qianxun secretly complained, they were all carrying swords.

Could it be that after seeing her transform, without saying a word, he used his swords to chop them all?

Look at the swords.

One is heavier than the other, but Rudolph is wearing a dagger, so Even worse, after rebirth, will he enjoy slicing human flesh as sashimi as before?

All the conversations were interspersed with a louder dog barking.

Reger didn't say anything.

After all, he was a guest and the count's dog.

Sneijder was a little unhappy: "Rudolph, kill the dog."

"No, how can you kill the Earl's dogs?"

Reger smiled and said to the butler next to him: "Go get some bones and give them to them."

Cheng Qianxun was depressed, and the barking of dogs made her even more upset, so she stared at the dogs.

Just as Rudolph walked over and heard the footsteps, the dogs immediately stopped barking, made a "whining" sound, and drooped their ears and tails.

"That's right."

Sneijder scolded the dog: "Otherwise, I'll skin you."

Gordon looked at Snow Fox's dark eyes and said with admiration: "I didn't expect Viscount Regel to have such a beautiful dog.

The hair is so good.

I've never seen it before.

It's an extremely rare breed."

Cheng Qianxun was stunned by these words.

Turn your glaring eyes on Gordon.

"It's not a dog, it's a snow fox."

Reger stretched out his hand to touch the smooth and thick fur of the snow fox in his arms, and a silky tail fell from his elbow, more than a foot long.

Everyone's eyes were wide open at this moment, as if a gold bar of the same weight fell.

Unable to wait for death, Cheng Qianxun immediately squinted his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth, and said "ouch" twice as if to please Sneijder.

Sneijder was amused at this time and stretched out his hand to touch it: "It's very well-behaved.

I didn't see it last time when I came back.

People who don't know think that I have raised it since I was a child."

He quickly returned his head to Sneijder's hand, closed his eyes, and turned it against his hand a few times.

So gentle and coy, a Persian cat would probably feel ashamed of itself.

Sneijder liked it even more: "This is rare, can you let me hug you?"

The count liked it so much.

If you need it, you can't give it.

Regel was reluctant and could only hand it over.

Cheng Qianxun saw the clues and couldn't leave Regel.

After all, she could be regarded as saving Regel's life, and when she went to Sneijder's place, she had no kindness to give to Sneijder.

If one of them was unhappy, Rudolf would not let Rudolf skin her.

He immediately stretched out his front paws and hugged Regel's arm tightly, screaming "Ouch", as if he was about to leave.

Sneijder hugged the snow fox, but the snow fox hugged Regel's arm and shouted loudly, not as if he wanted to hug it, but as if he wanted to kill it.

Look at Regel’s expression of reluctance.

So he let go of his hand angrily, with a bit of envy: "It seems that it regards you as its master, and is more loyal than a dog."

After throwing herself into Reger's arms, Cheng Qianxun's wildly beating heart finally stabilized a little, and she let out a few more gentle "whimpers".

Anyway, she already understood Raphael's sinister intentions.

There is no need to train her, she will naturally behave and be cute in order to save her life.

Now Reger liked him even more, even if he accompanied the guest into the house, he would not let go.

The time Sneijder went there was quite a coincidence.

It was already past lunch time, which meant there was no need for lunch.

But as the master, Regel.

Naturally, he would not neglect the distinguished guests, so he still asked people to put food on the table in the hall on the ground floor, and also put a table in the courtyard to entertain the knights.

He also ordered the steward to hold a banquet in the evening, involving not only the knights raised in the castle, but also some respectable people in the city and their families.

Twelve knights and two attendants.

There are also four hounds, which are left to the butler to take care of.

Rudolf also went with him.

The knight ate and slept in the stable.

Even in the benefactor's house, most of them slept in stables.

Only a few qualified nobles were allotted some simple rooms, so knights with some money often found a room near their benefactor's house to start a family.

The three nobles sat at the table.

Cheng Qianxun did not dare to sit on Reger's lap anymore.

On the one hand, the target was too big and he could see her at a glance.

On the other hand, Sneijder was still a jealous man.

After my memory is restored in the future, I will not be depressed alone for several days over this matter.

She lay down under Reger's chair and made no sound.

The three of them drank wine and chatted.

At first they talked about more serious things such as the political situation.

A noble from one family beat another noble over the matter of fish from upstream swimming downstream; and a few horses were sold.

Maybe the servants took the money for themselves, or maybe they really didn't pay enough, and the two nobles fought. .

This kind of war completely depends on the strength of the two factions of nobles, ranging from sending people to fight alone to forty or fifty knights.

I really don’t know how there are so many things to fight about, ranging from territorial disputes and population migration to trivial matters such as a few pigs and chickens, and a team of knights to fight to the death.

As they talked, the topic changed direction when the topic of another "war" came up.

It is said that a baron went to another baron's house to propose marriage to the other baron's most beautiful daughter.

This noble family had five daughters.

After the marriage was agreed, the nobleman sent the ugliest daughter and the dowry to this baron.

Noble family.

As a result, when the son-in-law saw the ugly bride, he was furious on the spot.

He took more than 20 knights from his family and hired another 30 more at temporary expense, and went to his father-in-law's house to surround him, ask for a return or exchange of goods.

The father-in-law asked someone to sneak out and find other sons-in-law to help.

As a result, none of the three sons-in-law was willing to come.

Who would spend all their money on this matter?

The father-in-law had no choice but to negotiate, saying that as long as he married an ugly daughter, he would be willing to cut off a piece of the richest land as a dowry.

The prospective son-in-law still refused, saying that it was too ugly and that another piece of land must be added.

As a result, the father-in-law had no choice but to take out his most beautiful daughter.

The ending was happy for everyone.

The son-in-law who besieged his father-in-law carried his favorite bride on the horse, and the couple returned home.

The matter was quite serious, and a baron who was bankrupt and about to be impoverished heard the news and sent for a proposal of marriage.

The other party is also a noble and has the same status; even if he goes bankrupt, he is still a noble and his title remains.

When the father-in-law heard this, he naturally wanted her and sent the ugly daughter along with the land title deed that he had promised.

It is said that the ugliest daughter is very good at managing money, and everyone is living a happy life.

Reger held his stomach and smiled: "I don't even need an extra piece of land, this woman is pretty pretty."

"Yes, I heard that she has buck teeth, a pockmarked face, and is blind in one eye.

She is the eldest daughter.

She can't remarry and can only raise her for the rest of her life."

Sneijder is still as eloquent as before.

But Gordon just listened and laughed along.

Listening to the three teammates laughing, Cheng Qianxun sweated.

This is not called marrying a wife.

Whoever is rich and powerful is the local bully.

Sneijder turned to ask: "Dear brother Regal, you are getting married at any age, don't you think about Countess Lily, this poor rich widow, she is still waiting for you.

There is also the Marquis’ daughter, who is quite good-looking and has a very generous dowry.”

"What about you, Lord Count?"

Reger asked back: "You are about the same age as me.

Their status is more suitable for you.

You are their first choice, and I am the second.

Don't you want to marry me?"

Is it done?”

Cheng Qianxun's drooped ears suddenly stood up.

In this era, most women get married at the age of sixteen or seventeen.

It is normal to marry at the age of fourteen or fifteen.

If you are still unable to marry after twenty, you are an old girl.

Many aristocratic ladies, after the death of their husbands, still retain their charm in their thirties, but they have become grandmothers.

"This..."

There was embarrassment in Sneijder's voice, and he changed the target with a smile: "Now there is another competitor, and that is Viscount Gordon.

News has just come from his fiancée who has been engaged since childhood.

She slipped and drowned at the lake.

May God bless her soul."

During this period, it seems that religion did not occupy a dominant position in people's minds.

After so many words, it was only mentioned once.

Reger said with a smile: "It's really unfortunate.

Seeing that Viscount Gordon is quite old and has not yet consummated his marriage."

"This marriage was arranged fourteen years ago.

My father encountered difficulties and borrowed a sum of money from his family at that time, and she was just born.

She is more than ten years younger than me, frail and often emotionally unstable.

This time she drowned It was also because she went crazy in the middle of the night and ran out by herself.

Her whole family was crazy, and all her brothers and relatives were dead.

"Gordon replied calmly: "She was just old enough to get married, so I announced that I was marrying her and took her body.

A person buried in a family grave is considered a married person."

"This is the clever part," Sneijder said with a bit of joking: "Gordon has become a viscount from a baron, inheriting her family's title and a large fiefdom.

When others heard this, they were envious.

But come on, I really admire his dead father’s shrewdness.

And those women have adjusted their new goals one by one, and Gordon is very popular now.”

Gordon was a bit flattering, but also very practical: "The royal family and the marquis either already have wives, or they are still young, and they are almost pre-decided.

In the past ten or eight years, the earl has been the number one."

Then the three people laughed, with aristocratic superiority in their laughter.

Speechless, speechless. . .

What the three people said was realistic and philistine, and all revolved around status and money.

Cheng Qianxun was very sad.

It was difficult to make these noble men call out her name.

It was too difficult.

The dinner was more lively than yesterday.

In order to participate in the banquet with the earl, families with marriageable daughters came over with generous gifts.

Even nobles from outside the fiefdom came over in cars and horses.

Of course, gifts are essential.

Ordinary families without a title to inherit cannot reach the level of earl, but those knights who are not married and have some assets are their targets.

It was said to be a dinner party.

In order to save money on lights and to allow the guests to go home early and avoid traveling at night, the banquet started when the sun set.

The hall and courtyard were crowded for a while, and the housekeeper hired more than a dozen people.

A pretty, plump woman came to pour the wine
