The door of the room was specially made. There was a square opening in the door, which was big enough for the plate to pass through.
The servant of Mr. Jacques' house was sending food into the room through the opening in the door.
In this way, the servant wouldn't have any contact with the people in the room.
"Madam, lunch is here. I made a delicious stew today, please eat more. I'll come back for dinner. "
The servant knocked on the door and left immediately after saying that. It seemed that he didn't want to stay any longer — After the servant left, the door of another room in the corridor opened slowly.
Miss Maid walked out of the room with no expression on her face.
She came to the door — this was the room of Madam Isabelle, Mr. Jacques' wife.
In this era, there was almost no way to treat this disease … The best way was to isolate it, and in some places, they would even kill it directly to avoid becoming the source of infection.
Miss Maid stood outside the door, listening to the movement in the room … but there was no movement in the room.
She put her hand on the door handle casually.
"You're in the wrong room."
At this time, Mr. Jacques' voice sounded behind her … Miss Maid suddenly stopped. She turned around as if nothing had happened and smiled, "I'm a little curious."
Mr. Jacques said indifferently, "I'm very happy that guests are willing to visit my house. If Miss Ye is interested, I can show you around, but only outside this room."
"I heard from Miss Jeanne that your wife is sick." Miss Maid said softly.
"It's not a secret." Mr. Jacques shook his head, "But people don't want to talk about it … probably because I have a farm and provide them with a lot of work."
Miss Maid suddenly said, "In my hometown, there's a pharmacy that can cure this disease. Mr. Jacques, do you want to try it?"
Mr. Jacques obviously didn't expect that this beautiful woman would give such an answer … He didn't know how to respond and was stunned on the spot.
Miss Maid said further, "Mr. Jacques, don't you want your wife to be well? I think, as a patient, there's no more urgent wish than to recover. "
Mr. Jacques took a deep breath. "I thank you on behalf of Isabelle … It's just that over the years, we have tried many methods. Isabelle went through a lot of pain … "
Miss Maid asked, "Is Mr. Jacques going to give up?"
Mr. Jacques shook his head. "I don't want to give up, but I don't dare to try it either. As I said, we have tried many ways, but in the end, there was no result. The pain made my wife's mood very unstable. She doesn't want to see people, and even I can't get close to her. "
"My prescription is definitely effective," Wang Yao said. The servant girl said again, "If you can't cure your wife, I'm willing to be infected with her."
Mr. Jacques opened his mouth in surprise. "What a touching promise, Miss You Ye … even I'm tempted."
"But Mr. Jacques doesn't seem too optimistic about curing his wife." Miss Maid narrowed her eyes.
Mr. Jacques was silent for a while, and then slowly said, "Maybe, we've all been used to this state, letting hope always exist in the illusion. We won't and dare not break this fragile and endless hope easily."
"I can." Miss Maid said seriously.
This was the third time she expressed her opinion … Mr. Jacques was slightly moved.
He even pondered … Maybe he had made up his mind. Mr. Jacques sighed and said, "I'll find a way to calm my wife's mood and let her try again. Please give me some time."
"You really need to be patient with patients." Miss Maid said with a smile.
"Please wait for a moment."
With that, Mr. Jacques took out a key from his pocket and unlocked the door. Before entering, Mr. Jacques said softly, "Isabelle, I'm coming in. I have something to tell you."
At this moment, Miss Maid suddenly asked, "Mr. Jacques, do you really believe me?"
Mr. Jacques didn't think too much, but said directly, "It's hard for me to believe a stranger … But I believe your master, he has a pair of clear eyes. In fact, I know how to observe a person's eyes very well. "
Miss Maid said, "What do you think of my eyes, Mr. Jacques?"
"Very beautiful, as beautiful as a gem." Mr. Jacques smiled casually, "They're the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen."
"Just beautiful?"
"I think, beautiful is the best compliment for a lady." Mr. Jacques smiled, "Forgive my ignorance, but I really can't find a more suitable word than beautiful."
"I'll wait for your news here, Mr. Jacques." Miss Maid stepped back two small steps.
Finally, before entering the door, Mr. Jacques suddenly asked, "Is it Luo's idea to treat my wife?"
"It's my personal idea." Miss Maid said calmly, "But it's also my duty to solve problems for my master."
"Luo … he has a very good servant." Mr. Jacques nodded and took a deep look at Miss Maid.
The door opened a little, Mr. Jacques walked into the room carefully, and then closed the door again … Miss Maid could hear Mr. Jacques calling his wife's name through the door.
"Isabelle, forgive me for bothering you at this time …"
Only Mr. Jacques' voice could be heard.
At this time, Miss Maid stretched out her finger … At the tip of her finger, a small black butterfly slowly flew out. The butterfly flew to the door and disappeared instantly.
The black butterfly had flown into the door.
The room was very spacious, without any extra furnishings. There was only a very large bed … The four sides of the bed were covered with gauze curtains. Mr. Jacques was standing beside the bed, talking through the gauze curtains.
The black butterfly quietly docked at the side.
Vaguely, a figure could be seen sitting inside the gauze curtains.
At this time, Mr. Jacques was whispering something.
It was not about the treatment.
"… I'm going to send Jeanne away tonight. I know you'll agree with me, Isabelle. "Mr. Jacques sighed," You don't say anything, so I'll take it as you agree. "
…
Miss Maid didn't wait too long outside the door, Mr. Jacques had already walked out of the room.
"I hope I can hear good news." Miss Maid said with a smile.
"I hope I can also hear good news from you, Miss You Ye." Mr. Jacques nodded, "My wife agreed, but she's a little emotional. I want to wait for her to calm down before starting the treatment. Also, I think that since you want to treat him, you will need some time to prepare … If you need anything, just tell the servants at home. I will tell them. "
"Then what time do you think is suitable, Mr. Jacques?"
Mr. Jacques thought for a while, "Maybe, it'll be better in the evening, what do you think?"
"Yes, sir." Miss Maid nodded, "Then I'll go back and prepare some necessary supplies."
"Wait, I hope you won't tell Jeanne about this for the time being." Mr. Jacques suddenly said, "It'll be a suitable time to wait until the good news comes out."
"Of course."
Mr. Jacques said, "Today may be a good day … at least it's better than I thought. You go back first, I still want to accompany my wife. "
"Then, I'll leave first."
…
…
The so-called duties of a wife were actually many … but the girl's behavior at this time was probably referring to some aspects.
The girl had always been a bold person.
Otherwise, it was impossible for her to hunt alone in the forest, and even more impossible for her to go deep into the dangerous underground river. She often used the water of the underground river to travel back and forth.
These deeds, for an ordinary fourteen or fifteen year old teenager, were probably behaviors that only existed in the illusion.
She was really bold.
After saying those words that were like a declaration, she even cooperated with the action … Her soft body suddenly threw herself into the arms of Boss Luo.
Panic, fear … and even some excitement.
The yearning for men and the restlessness of adolescence mixed with some unclear thoughts of a young girl. Under all kinds of stimulation, the girl's heart was beating fast.
This was an age where it was easy to be impulsive, even reckless.
She tightly hugged Luoqiu's body, buried her head in his arms, "I want to join the army, I don't want to be bound by marriage for my whole life. Please forgive me for my stubbornness … This is the best way. Please let me leave your side for a while. For this, I will offer my body and loyalty to you, this is the biggest promise I can give you, with my purity! "
Her heart was beating more violently.
Perhaps these were not the words she really wanted to say … but these were the words she could think of that could express her will clearly.
"Miss Jenna, don't you think this is a bit hasty?" Boss Luo asked softly.
The girl shook her head and said faintly, "Father may want to send me away … Otherwise, he wouldn't be in a hurry to let me marry you. Something happened today, father never thought that he would say those harsh words to me like today. Although my heart is very uncomfortable, I can vaguely feel the meaning of his words. "
Boss Luo listened calmly.
The girl raised her head and said, "If I don't go with you, there is a high probability that I will be taken away by Bertrand. He might send me to another place and lock me up temporarily. That way, I won't be free. But I can be free from you. "
Boss Luo said indifferently, "How do you know that I will let you go, Miss Jenna?"
"So I will make you believe that I will remain loyal to you." The girl said solemnly, "My loyalty to love will be as firm as my belief in God's miracle. I know that I have a mission that I must complete … I can only choose this way to make my family feel at ease. Most, most importantly, I … I don't hate you. "
"What is your mission?" Boss Luo suddenly asked.
The girl said, "I will drive away the brutal Burgundians and finally defeat the British Empire behind the Burgundians, and let the wind of freedom blow on the land of France!"
"You look forward to it?"
"I look forward to the arrival of this day, because this is the meaning of my existence, my destiny."
"The revelation of God's miracle?"
"You were there at that time, weren't you?" The girl's eyes were hazy, "It was you, the witness, I pulled out the Sword of Victory, you are my first witness … There is no one more suitable than you. Also, we have a marriage contract, this must be Saint Michael's arrangement! "
Boss Luo said indifferently, "If I say that I don't want to see this as an arrangement, and I don't want to admit that this is Saint Michael's will … I might even hate Saint Michael, would you still insist?"
"Be careful with your words!" A trace of panic appeared in the girl's eyes, she even subconsciously looked at the Sword of Victory and hurriedly said, "When I pray, I will add your name!"
"I will look forward to Saint Michael's arrival to talk to me." Boss Luo smiled casually.
The girl opened her mouth … this guy really!
However, things like faith couldn't be forced, not everyone in the outside world had faith … The girl had always thought that faith was something that depended on one's own freedom.
If one had faith, one would have it, and if one didn't have it, one couldn't force it … Faith should be a spirit that allowed people to live and work hard, not a tool to rule.
She took a deep breath. At this moment, she was still hugging the other person's body tightly. Her thin clothes couldn't completely block the skin contact between their bodies.
"… You, will you agree?" The girl asked in a low voice, "I know my request is unreasonable, but please give me a few years. Since … since you have the habit of keeping maids, even when I'm not here, you can … can. "
Even Boss Luo himself didn't know when he had the habit of keeping maids as his pets.
He shook his head and gently pressed on the girl's shoulders, pushing her away from his embrace. "You've guessed one thing right. Your father does intend to let me take you away, and I'm afraid it will happen in the next one or two days."
"You agree?" The girl asked in surprise.
"I didn't agree." Boss Luo said indifferently, "But I didn't refuse either … I think I should agree."
"Then …" The girl suddenly blushed, she lowered her head subconsciously, then pulled Boss Luo's clothes, and said in a low voice, "Wait … Wait, can you do it outside? I heard that if you do it inside, there will be … a child. I … I mean, after I defeat Britain, I … I will definitely give you … a child. "
Boss Luo took a step forward at this time. The girl was like a frightened rabbit, slowly taking a step back.
Luoqiu took a step forward, and the girl subconsciously took another step back.
Finally, she was forced to the bedside and sat down. She lowered her head, bit her lips, and clenched the clothes around her waist.
"I … I'm ready."
Boss Luo bent down, but he picked up the bedsheet and wrapped it around the girl's body.
The girl was stunned, she looked up in surprise, and her eyes widened.
"It's too early for you." Boss Luo smiled.
"You …" The girl's face turned pale, "Do you think I'm … still young?"
Boss Luo put two fingers together, gently tapped the girl's forehead, and chuckled, "Read less books for adults, I'm going to find your father."
