As for the old lady wanting to see his mother, he didn't say anything else. Some things were too much to hide from her, and even more, he didn't believe that this could be hidden from the old lady. To put it bluntly, this matriarch was like a monkey. With her delicate heart, she could hide her plans from others, but she might not be able to hide it from her.
The truth was that the strategy of "Ordinary" wasn't entirely flawless, but ordinary people wouldn't have thought of it. However, from the playful look the old lady had when she looked at him, she knew that he must have guessed something, so she didn't say much and let him go in to talk to her mother.
When the Old Madame entered, Ordinary also turned around and went in. The emperor saw it and stopped poking for them, they turned around and returned to the hall to await the news. Cameron looked around bored to death, the emperor said that why did you not stay here and wander around? The Archmage said that he was looking for a place with a peeping eye in this hall.
When he said that everyone had found something to do and looked curiously at their own images on the big screen, one of the officials sighed, "If my family had such a thing back then, then I wouldn't have been able to steal my treasure."
Hearing him say this, everyone's heart lit up. They thought that it was too convenient and too magical for them to store it in their homes. This way, they could prevent theft and also monitor the servants and maids at home to prevent them from slacking off. When I come back, I will definitely ask Great Magic Scholar Moliere to make a set for me!
Not mentioning all these, when Ji Old Madame saw Liz inside, she was very nervous. She immediately stood up and bowed to her, and then helped her up, "Child, don't mention it, you are the great contributor to our Ji Family." As she said that, she carefully sized up Liz: "Not bad, not bad, even more beautiful than back then. "Child, all these years have been hard on you."
Madam Liz smiled and did not say anything else. However, she knew in her heart that the old lady's words were all just words of respect. Since she had been baptized in the light, it had not been an exaggeration to say that she was the entire person. Old Madame's words had merely been a courtesy for the two of them to become closer.
She was a Holy Knight, and in front of a woman who could maintain her calmness and not be affected by her own atmosphere, she had only met three women. One was a female teacher in the academy, the other was the current Empress, who was also the mother of Parell, and the third was Lady Liz.
The Old Madame nodded as she received it with a smile and took a sip before placing the teacup down. There was guilt in her eyes as she said: "Liz, our Ji Family has let you down, allowing you to raise an ordinary youth by yourself, and even bringing him up to be such an outstanding youth. You are truly not simple. Can you tell me how you've been all these years? "
Lady Liz had a gentle smile on her face as she said, "It's nothing much, I wasn't the one who raised Little Fan. If it wasn't for him taking care of me all these years, I probably would have died a long time ago. To be honest, I don't even know where this child learned such a strange skill from. He doesn't need to be afraid of your jokes, and he even taught me this tiny skill of mine. "
The old lady couldn't help but size up Madam Liz once she heard this. Her eyes were tranquil and clear as she looked at the old lady fearlessly, causing the old lady to be extremely shocked. She couldn't help but ask, "It's actually like this.
Madam Liz said unhurriedly: "That year, I was cut by someone. It was all thanks to the fact that my heart was located opposite to that of an ordinary person's, which was why I was lucky enough to escape this calamity …" Madam Liz gave a brief summary of the events that had transpired over ten years ago. Old Madame listened attentively, and listened one by one for more than two hours, until Madam Liz arrived at the Capital with and the mercenary protecting her. There was no need for her to explain further, as the Old Madame was aware of everything else.
The Old Madame sighed: "Praise the supreme God of Light, thank the gods for allowing the bloodline of Ji Family to be preserved." After saying that, she glanced at Liz, at this moment, Madam Liz was still immersed in her memories of yearning, and could not control herself, only when she checked if Old Madame was looking at her, did she apologetically say: "I'm sorry, I was rude."
"This is nothing, Liz, I think Ji Ang will be brought back by his father soon, I know that you have secretly visited him on the island, and you have been negotiating well, this time I will definitely get him to bring back your glorious Ji Family, if you have any conditions, just tell me." Old Madame said with sincerity.
Madam Liz smiled slightly and said: "You already know. I guess that can't be hidden from you." After saying that, she stood up, walked to the window and looked out, turning around to face Old Madame directly: "To be honest, when I first came to Grime, I still had a trace of hope, that I could obtain the approval of the Ji Family and the recognition of Duke Ji Ang. For this reason, I even secretly went to the Ji Family once, but the results that I obtained made me very sad. I was really sad, sorry for my birth, sorry that my son couldn't get a notary.
But then Xiaofan's words woke me up. He said that a person could not choose their own birth, nor could they choose who their parents were. However, they could change their own fate through their own efforts. Those nobles who were high and mighty didn't necessarily have a happier life than those who were poor. There were too many rules and regulations in those noble families, and the glory of their families didn't necessarily mean that they were happy.
After Little Fan took out the money and set up a foundation in my name, I came into contact with a lot of people, almost all of them poor people living in poverty, helpless old people, women and children, and when I saw those smiles on their faces that had received my help, I felt that I had found the happiness I wanted, and I suddenly understood my own worth.
I am a commoner, and even a servant who is lower than a commoner. Because of my status, I long for recognition, for the approval of the nobility. This intense desire has caused me to lose myself, but the smiles of those children allowed me to recover the most precious wealth in my life. Xiaofan said that people should never forget their roots. This made me think carefully about my past and my future.
I can't change my past, but I want to grasp my future. I don't want to go to a rich noble to make a parasitic vase, I'm just a commoner, I want to help those who are born like me and need help like me. If the noble won't help us, then we, the lowest of the bunch, will have to learn to help ourselves.
You have never seen such a scene. You do not understand how warm and peaceful the sincere blessing from others can be. I found the goal of my life. I found the value of my life.
Now I understand that Duke Ji Ang and I live in two completely different environments. Even if there is something called love between us, with his family background, identity, and education, it's hard for him to treat me properly. Maybe being a lover he's raising outside is the best ending.
But now that I've thought it through, even if he accepts me for a while, or if I accept his arrangements because of the plot of a hero or the worship of a noble, after a long time, we'll all get tired of this sneaky life and then get tired of each other. So this time, I'll give my future to fate, give myself a chance, and give him a chance. "
When Madam Liz was talking about this, she did not realize that wave after wave of warm white light was being emitted from her back. That kind of sincere and benevolent light that came from the bottom of her heart made Ji Old Madame have the urge to kneel and worship him.
Even though she was shocked by Madam Liz's words, she was also shocked by the sacred radiance that Madam Liz had unconsciously revealed. The old lady sat there speechlessly for a long time, and only after a long while did she understand what Liz had said, she suddenly felt that Liz was very similar to her. Back then, she was unwilling to become an aristocrat's vase, which was why she chose to go on such a difficult path. Although Madam Liz looked weak on the outside, her willpower was even stronger than her.
Ji Old Madame stood up, walked over, and lightly hugged Madam Liz, then sternly said: "Child, you are a person that is worthy of my respect and admiration. Whether or not you can become my daughter-in-law, I always hope that you can call me mother, if Ji Ang is unable to make the right choice, I will acknowledge you as my daughter, and let that bastard regret it for the rest of his life."
Madam Liz was startled for a moment. Seeing the hope in Old Madame's eyes, she laughed lightly and followed the customs of a commoner to hug her and call her mother. She hugged Madam Liz tightly and laughed: "Did you know that I have always wished to have a daughter of my own? Now that this wish of mine has been fulfilled, I'm very happy, I'm really very happy."
Feeling the sincere love of a mother from Old Madame, Liz called her mother lightly again as her tears fell uncontrollably. She hadn't felt her mother's love for a long time, to the point where she had almost forgotten the warmth from her mother's embrace.
Wiping away the tears on Madam Liz's face, Old Madame laughed: "Child, go and pursue the life you dream of, mother will support you! I'll be waiting for you to come back. " Liz nodded her head heavily and left the room with a smile on her face.
He walked into the living room with large steps. When the Emperor and the rest of the officials saw that the Old Madame had come out, they surrounded him and the Emperor asked anxiously: "Merlin Qing, how was the discussion between you and Madam Liz?"
"Your Majesty, please bring everyone back. We'll talk about everything after Ji Ang arrives." After saying that, the Old Madame bowed to the Emperor apologetically, turned around, and left. The emperor blinked for a long time and was extremely depressed. He thought to himself, "What is going on?" You can't leave until you've made yourself clear!
Cameron thought for a while and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, maybe the Old Madame and ordinary mother and son have reached an agreement. Let's go back first and talk about the situation after Duke Ji Ang returns." Emperor was helpless, he could only return home, although he had to leave, his heart was still in there, he had sent countless of secret scouts to watch his every move.
Furthermore, after returning, Emperor immediately found the Great Magic Scholar Moliere, telling him to design a set of surveillance equipment for himself. had already learnt from the ordinary people, and without hesitation, he ruthlessly slashed Emperor's blade, saying that the rate of failure in designing this thing was extremely high, and the amount of money he had to spend was extremely high. Originally, he had only spent a few million gold coins to design it, but Old Man had clenched his teeth and asked Emperor for a hundred and fifty million gold coins.
But after being together with ordinary people for a few days, Moliere had become completely different. He told everything, that what use did you have in researching a pile of profound magic and Alchemy s that were not practical? That is, you can't be famous yet you can't be rich. If you change your focus to research on magic and Alchemy that can be converted into practical techniques, one day, when your skills are used by most people, your name will spread throughout the world. This way, you would be able to earn money to improve your own life, and also improve everyone's life.
Old Man thought that this made sense, so he and the two of them worked together to research this set of Moliere's monitoring system. Ordinarily speaking, if the nobles came to purchase this technology, they would sell it for 10 million, 5 million, 100 million, 200 million, 500 million, 800 million and other prices depending on the size of the technology. However, he never expected that the Old Master would slash the snow white butcher knife towards the Emperor, and ruthlessly cut off a bloody piece of flesh from the Emperor's body.
Just as he left the emperor's place, the other big and small nobles came knocking on his door. One, two, three … Just by collecting the deposit, the Great Magic Scholar had already collected close to a billion gold coins, almost causing Old Man to pass out from excitement. Even after adding up his hundred years of research work, he still did not manage to earn that much money, and all of a sudden, over a hundred billion Old Man s came to the normal families to discuss things with him.
At the moment, the ordinary family was in the midst of negotiation, one negotiation was between Ji Ang and Liz who had just rushed back from the island, the other was between normal and Dragon Girl, Dragon Girl had rushed over to her house and fought a battle, she wanted to accompany normal people for 10 billion gold coins, normal people were trying to reason with her, and wanted to prove to her that gambling was shameful, that the person who lost the bet was in pain, and as a kind person, he could not place his happiness on other people's pain.
The Dragon Girl asked, "Even so, why did you win against Sabaras' family of fifty billion gold coins?" In the end, she had no choice but to confess to Dragon Girl that she had used her ten billion gold in debt to exchange for the entire clan of Pine Sable s, and that she had paid for the money herself. Thus, he brought the female dragon to a corner and paid the Dragon Girl the price for the treasures and antiques that she had stolen without any special marks.
Old Duke Ji dragged Ji Ang back from the small island. On the way, he told his about the news, and at that time, Ji Ang became anxious. So it turned out that was already used to Madam Liz coming to the island once every two days. But this time, she suddenly didn't come, causing Ji Ang to feel unwell.
had already gotten used to Liz coming to chat with him every two or three days. Her sudden absence made Ji Ang even more lonely, and loneliness was extremely scary, causing him to worry that something might have happened to Madam Liz, causing him to have the urge to swim back to the continent to take a look. It was only at this time that Ji Ang realized that she had unknowingly accepted Madam Liz.
Once the old man finished speaking, Ji Ang immediately turned into a bird and flew back into the Capital. When they arrived at Capital, they did not even return home and directly went to the princess' palace. Everyone only asked one question: "I want to see Liz!" If someone stopped him, he would fight to the death with that person. If she saw someone stopping him, she would tell that person to go talk to his mother.
The two of them were both very excited when they saw each other, and also very ashamed. However, they were both adults and not children anymore. Moreover, they were both extraordinary people, so they quickly began to discuss this matter.
Just as expected, although he had let go of his noble attitude, Ji Ang still did not let go of his dignity as a noble. He had already told Madam Liz that in order to prevent internal conflicts in his family, the best way was to let Liz make do with him.
Halfway there, he saw a man and a woman arguing on the street. The woman pointed at the man and said, "... You don't dare to admit it, yet you're still hiding it. Pfft, you can be considered a man. " The surrounding people burst into laughter. That man stood there in disgrace, looking dejected. Ji Ang looked at him for a while.
He thought about it carefully. Yeah, I am a man, I don't even dare to admit to my own wife and son, and I'm still hiding it, and this is not fair to Liz and his mother. Thinking about it, Ji Ang turned back around.
