Chapter 81
Chapter 80: Cousin Fude (1)
It’s been a long time since I’ve been home, and the house is still the same.
Nothing had changed except for the elder brother Robbie, who was berating his servants in the lawned yard.
“This is the last time, I solemnly warn you, if there is another—”
The harsh words stopped abruptly before they could finish speaking.
He stared at the black-haired boy who jumped out of the carriage.
Robbie, a young man with black hair but a little anxious hairline, couldn’t help but be astonished.
“Didn’t you go on a tour, Merron?”
“It’s not interesting, so I came back early.” The boy replied.
“But, you seem to be a little different?”
“I’m still growing, what’s so strange about that?”
With that said, Meren looked at the pale-faced head maid next to her brother, and asked strangely, “What happened?”
“It’s nothing, a little thing.”
The young man shook his head, not intending to tell his brother about the maid’s embezzlement.
Merron was not interested in this either, he nodded casually when he heard the words, and then made an appearance as if he was about to enter the house.
Not surprisingly, his brother Robbie stopped him immediately.
“I have something to tell you.”
After pulling Merron into the corner, the young man put on a mysterious look.
“What’s up?”
Meren asked strangely.
Isn’t there a cousin who may not be able to fight even eight poles? What’s the mystery?
“Do you remember Uncle James?”
“The one who died of syphilis, of course.”
His tone was very casual and seemed to have no sense of respect, which surprised Robbie.
“…Didn’t you have a good relationship?”
He always tells me dirty jokes, Mellen thought, of course the relationship is good.
But this kind of relationship is not really a good relationship. In fact, Mellon has always been wary of that uncle.
Because he felt that it was impossible to be a good person who could tell dirty jokes to a little boy who was less than ten years old at the time.
But Mellon didn’t have the heart to compose a dead person, so he didn’t explain, but asked directly: “What happened?”
Seeing this, Robbie didn’t hide it, and he simply told Melon that his parents had arranged a marriage and the origin of the woman.
So Mellon was a little speechless.
It turns out that this is the surprise that my mother mentioned in the letter a while ago?
What’s the surprise here?
You are a feminist who has started to arrange marriages, which is outrageous!
But despite thinking so, Meren didn’t care much.
Those parents who go out every three or five weeks are very out of tune. Melun has not listened to them since he was a child, so he does not pay much attention to the words of his parents’ life matchmaker.
Relatively speaking, he was curious about the cousin herself.
Because he had never heard of it, his uncle who died of syphilis had an illegitimate daughter.
“I was very tired from the car all the way, so she went to rest.”
Brother Robbie said: “If you want to see your fiancée, you may have to wait.”
“But don’t worry, her appearance is completely fine, and it can even be said that it is the first time I have seen such a beautiful girl.”
She wasn’t pretty, and she wasn’t a real fiancée, so Mellon didn’t care much about that.
But then he thought of another thing.
“She won’t say, she wants to live in our house?”
“What are you thinking about? How can anyone live in the man’s house before they get engaged?”
Because he knew how beautiful the girl was, Robbie never thought that his younger brother would refuse.
He even subconsciously felt that this was a big happy event, even though the woman’s identity was relatively low and she was an illegitimate daughter.
“She mentioned before that she has a few relatives and friends in Graham City, so she will leave after seeing you.”
Mellen breathed a sigh of relief from this, “This is the best, I have to go to college next month, but I don’t have time to pay attention to her.”
“Going to college?”
Robbie was stunned when he heard the words, “Why did you go to university before you finished your primary education?”
…
There is no such thing as junior high school and high school in this world. Education before college is collectively referred to as primary education.
And there is no standard for education, because there is no college entrance examination, so whether you can be admitted to a university depends entirely on yourself to apply for a certain university, and then take the test for admission.
The same is true in the wizarding world, so there is nothing wrong with calling a wizarding school a university.
There is not much to say about this kind of thing, Merron casually said a few words, and got his cheap brother to the lake.
Then, ignoring his appearance of wanting to inquire in depth, he walked directly towards the classically-shaped villa.
Since he was taking a nap, of course Meren put out the idea of seeing the cousin soon.
It happened that the servant mentioned that during this time, he had several letters delivered, so Melon planned to go to the study to have a look first.
There is nothing special about this. Some of the letters that came were from editors of the publishing house, some fans sent through the publishing house, and some of them had not seen Melun for a long time. One of his theology teachers asked him why he didn’t go to school.
Of course, there are also letters from several pen pals he has contacted in the past.
Among them, the letter signed Juliana caused Merron to raise her eyebrows unconsciously.
After opening the letter, he found that it was another letter related to the management of the company, or the management of the company’s employees.
Juliana always asks these kinds of questions, but her brain is very stupid, and she just can’t turn around a lot of obviously very simple knowledge points.
It’s like a primary school student who is being tutored by his parents, but he can’t learn.
“To make your employees fear you more, there is a relatively basic trick.”
After reading the contents of the letter, Mellon wrote a reply on the spot.
“In daily life, you should ask them to call you by your title, not your name. For example, call you manager, boss, teacher. In this way, when they greet you, they will subconsciously think more about the identities corresponding to these positions, but pay attention…”
This time Merron didn’t scold anyone.
Because after he heard that Kevin’s mother was also called Juliana, he somehow felt that if he scolded his pen pal again, it would be as if he was scolding Sang Huai and scolding Kevin’s mother, and it felt awkward.
But I don’t know if it was an illusion. When he put down the quill and started drying the wet ink on the letter, he seemed to hear a rather disappointed sigh…
Merron raised his head alertly and looked around, but found nothing unusual.
So he didn’t care much.
The master-level breathing method makes his physical fitness amazing, which naturally includes the strengthening of hearing.
If he does not control, UU reading www. uukanshu.com can always hear all kinds of trivial noises outside.
When walking on the city streets at night, you may even hear some noises that teach bad children from the buildings on both sides.
It just annoyed him.
“Some things are not good if they are too strong.”
Thinking helplessly in his heart, Merron was ready to practice some life-saving stunt he had newly acquired—
The inheritance of the potions professor has greatly increased his knowledge, but due to the restriction of the personality level, he has not many wizard methods that he can use now, and he can only digest it slowly.
Knight Legacy doesn’t have this flaw.
Relying on the master-level breathing method, Meren can now learn one of the top skills in inheritance.
Sunlight, this is the name of this life-saving technique, and the effect is probably absolute defense.
At least in memory, the head of the Knights who used this stunt several times has never been attacked by the enemy.
This is also the secret of the so-called Knights of Dawn, a top-level knight skill that only the leader can learn.
It’s just that because it’s pure memory, Meren can’t use the skill points to get started, so he can only practice on his own.
When this ability is recorded in the attribute column, he can try to upgrade with skill points.
This is a relatively slow process, after all, it is a top-level ability, not as easy to learn as basic skills.
But Meren has a “full-level” body after all, and it’s hard to say how difficult it is to learn this ability.
At least he felt that in a few days, he would be able to learn this ability.
However, the cultivation of this ability requires a certain amount of activity space, and the study room is too narrow to display it.
But this practice scene couldn’t be watched by others, so Mellen walked to his spacious bedroom.
As a result, as soon as he opened the bedroom door, he felt something was wrong.
