"Why do you like honesty? Why are you asking? "

"Because... I can't find any interesting topic, and I'm curious about it..."

"Ho ~ ~"

Carol turned around and turned her face to Eliza.

Although it's dark around, Eliza's eyes have long been used to the night, so even in such a dark environment, Eliza can clearly see Carol's beautiful water blue pupils.

"Are you going to spy on your competitors?"

"No!" Eliza retorted angrily, "really, it's just a curious question!"

Eliza's excuse seemed useless.

Carol still looked at Eliza with playful eyes.

"Well, I don't care whether you are really curious or intend to spy on your competitors. Anyway, it's not something you can't tell others."

"In fact, Eliza, you have asked a lot of questions. There is no need for you to ask this question."

"There may be various reasons to hate a person, but the reasons to like a person are basically the same."

"The reason why I like honesty is the same as that of Eliza. So if you want to know why I like honesty, you just need to ask your own heart and why you like honesty. The reason why you like honesty is the reason why I like honesty. "

"I didn't..."

Eliza subconsciously wanted Carol's words.

However, before the sentence "I don't like Su Cheng" could be said, Carol grabbed Eliza and put a finger on Eliza's lips to stop her from talking.

"You don't have to tell me that self deception. Eliza, you almost have to face up to your heart. It's not a shame to admit that you like honesty. "

Then Carol took back her finger and went on:

"Well, I've answered your question. Let's change to another topic."

"It feels like you didn't answer, Carol..."

"I have answered you in detail."

"HMM... forget it, let's change the topic. Carol, how did you get to know Su Cheng? I'm curious about this, too. "

"How do you know Cheng well? Well... The answer to this question is very long. "

After that, Carol straightened her side and put her face against the wooden ceiling, with the color of thinking and memory on her face.

"He has known Cheng for a long time. Not long after I ran away from home at the age of 14, I met Alan and Cheng. At that time, Cheng was only 15 and Alan was only 12."

"Not long after I fell out with my father and left Brett village when I was 14, I met a big businessman named Falk Windsor, who was taking his caravan to the north."

Eliza, lying on Carol's side, listened with interest.

However, just then——

"Ha ~ ~"

Carol yawned.

"I'm sleepy."

"Hey?"

"Because if you want to talk about how I know Su Cheng, you have to talk for a long time. But now I'm sleepy and don't want to talk, so when I want to talk later, I'll tell you. "

"Hey?! Why! You are too irresponsible! You stopped talking after you started! You are tantalizing me! Carol, just tell me! I really want to know! "

"I'll tell you, but not now. I feel a little sleepy, so I don't really want to tell it now. I'll tell you the next story later. "

With that, Carol leaned over and turned her back to Eliza again.

"Carol! Ah! Stop sleeping! Tell me! I really want to know the story behind! You'll keep me awake! "

"Ha ~ Hoo ~ ha ~ Hoo ~ ha ~ Hoo..." Carol responded to Eliza with a lovely snore.

"Carol! You did it on purpose, didn't you? You saw that I was very interested in the past of you and Su Cheng, so you deliberately started, then stopped talking, and deliberately seduced me, didn't you? Oh, Carol! Keep telling me! "

"Ha ~ Hoo ~ ha ~ Hoo ~ ha ~ Hoo..."

"Carol!"

……

……

The next day.

February 23, 291 in the imperial calendar of the British Empire.

The second day Su Cheng came to Brett village.

early morning.

Everyone had a delicious breakfast around the low table in the living room.

Sitting opposite Eliza, Su Cheng, while having breakfast, found that Eliza's spirit today seems to be a little bad.

"What's the matter, Eliza?" Su Cheng asked Eliza, "today's spirit seems a little bad. Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"It's all because of some villain."

After that, Eliza cast a resentful look at Carol sitting next to her.

And Carol didn't seem to see Eliza's sad eyes. She continued to have an inexplicable smile on her face and ate breakfast silently.

After breakfast, Carol stood up, explained to the crowd, and walked out of the house.

Carol has made an appointment to play with her old friends led by Clara today, so she may not come back until the evening.

After Carol finished breakfast and left home, Yegor also finished breakfast.

"Then I'll go."

After lightly leaving this sentence, Yegor put on his cotton padded clothes and coat for cold protection and walked towards the door of the house.

"All the way, honey."

After Yegor stood up and walked towards the gate, Vicat immediately stood up and followed Yegor to the gate.

After following Yegor to the gate, Vika took off a bracelet hanging on her left wrist and hung it on Yegor's wrist.

Looking at the bracelet handed over from Vika's wrist to Yegor's wrist, Su Cheng couldn't help but pick his eyebrow because of an accident.

Until now, as like as two peas, Carroll found that VEKA's wrist chain is almost the same as its bracelet.

——Every time I go to war, Carol will give me her bracelet... And when Mr. Yegor goes out to work, miss Vica will tie her bracelet to Mr. Yegor's wrist... Tie her bracelet to others' wrists... Is it a custom here? What does it mean?

"That -- I want to ask." Unable to suppress his curiosity, Su Cheng asked Vicat, who had just tied the bracelet to Yegor's wrist, "what is the meaning of tying the bracelet from his wrist to someone else's wrist? Is it any custom here? "

"This is indeed a custom here." Vicat smiled and replied, "Mr. Cheng, are you very interested in our custom?"

"Well, I'm curious. Because as a knight, when I go on an expedition or a long trip, Carol will tie the bracelet on her left wrist to my hand, so I'm curious about this. What does this custom mean? "

As soon as Su Cheng's voice fell, Vicat gently covered his lips with the fingertips of the index finger, middle finger and ring finger of his left hand, and then made a "wow" sound full of surprise.

Yegor's face changed greatly, and then glared at Su Cheng fiercely.

"It seems - Mr. Cheng, you really have a lot of relationship with your little girl. In the little girl's eyes, you are really a very, very important person. "

After hearing Vika's words, Su Cheng's face became more and more confused.

Vicat seemed to see the increasingly confused color on Su Cheng's face and began to solve Su Cheng's doubts:

"This is a custom here. When a girl is 10 years old, she will get a bracelet made by her mother herself. My one is made by my mother, that is, Carol's grandmother, and Carol's one is made by me. "

After hearing Vicat say this, Su Cheng began to recall.

I found that, as Vika said, every woman I saw since I came to Brett village yesterday morning, whether a young woman like Clara or an old woman, did have a bracelet of similar style on her wrist.

"The meaning and function of this bracelet is similar to that of the amulet. It is to protect the health and safety of the bracelet holder. Giving the bracelet to someone else means hoping that person can come back safely and healthily. "

"It's just -- this bracelet can't be removed and handed over to others."

"Generally speaking, it will be removed only when the age increases and the bracelet length needs to be changed. And you can't give this bracelet to others. "

"Of course - it's not absolute. In the face of certain people, you can give him the bracelet. "

"Specific people?" Su Cheng couldn't help asking.

"That's right ~ ~"

Speaking of this, Vika's face gradually piled up an intriguing smile.

"When facing your husband or loved one, you can give him this bracelet to bless his health and peace."

"Husband or loved one?!" Su Cheng couldn't help exclaiming.

Alicia, kneeling opposite Su Cheng, couldn't help being surprised.

At this time, Yegor looked at Su Cheng more fiercely.

"That's right." Vika maintained the intriguing smile on her face and nodded, "the little girl will give you her bracelet before you go out every time, which means that in her eyes, you are her deep love."

Speaking of this, vicaton paused.

Obviously, he was not young, but he continued in a playful tone:

"By the way, I think Mr. Cheng is a very good man, so I don't mind Mr. Cheng being my son-in-law. Unexpectedly, my little daughter likes you so much, I'm willing to respect and support my little daughter's opinions and ideas ~ ~ if you like my little daughter too, welcome to be my son-in-law ~ ~"

"I really mind!!" Yegor shouted in a very bad mood, "I won't give my baby daughter to him! Absolutely not! "

"Well, well, honey, go to work. Your restaurant is still waiting for you. "

Vicat silently pushes yelgor out of the house.

It was not until Yegor was pushed out of the house by Vika that Su Cheng finally recovered from his shock.

——Carol... Did you hint at your feelings for me so long ago

Because Su Cheng hasn't completely recovered from the shock, he doesn't notice that Eliza sitting opposite him is looking at him with complex eyes.

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

"Coming, coming." Vicat, who had just left the gate, immediately walked back to the gate step by step, "who is it, please?"

"I'm here to help the village head deliver a message!" Outside the house came a young male voice, "the village head asked me to tell a man named Su Cheng that his son is back now. If you want to see him, you can come now."
