Black Iron’s Glory

Chapter 556: Confused Mother

Claude's face has been gloomy, listening to Swanson Butler talk about the farce that Mother and Caffrey both made in the King. When Counselor Swanson finished, he didn't know how to say his opinion. Mothers are old, almost seventy years old, and in this world they are old. At this age, she is unreasonable as a child. The so-called old child refers to the mother. She is only happy if she obeys her temper...

The problem is that, with the insight of a housewife such as her mother, sudden ascent to a higher position is easily forgotten, which is the moral incompatibility of the old saying. As she is now, it has become a joke of nobility and kings without knowing. Claude had a headache and didn't know what to do with her now. Why His Majesty treated her so kindly, as long as everyone in his heart knew what was going on, his mother did not understand, but took it for granted.

For a mother, her whole life has been smooth and smooth, and she has not experienced much suffering in her life. Originally a daughter of a small local official, she stopped studying at home after three years of schooling and was promised by her father to Mr. Morsan. What can you say about life after marriage? Mr. Morsan was in the rise of his career and the official road was smooth, so his mother's housewife lived very well, without a slight ripple. In town, she was a subject of admiration by neighbors and traders.

Although Mr. Morsan's subsequent suicide jump was the greatest ordeal of her life for her mother, she was also overwhelmed by sadness. But everything in the family was resisted by Claude, and she didn't play a role in the family change. Even if Claude was conscripted into the army, there was a sister, Anna, who stood up and took over the burden of the family. That was how she survived in the most difficult years, and her mother had not really been under any stress in her life.

When Claude made his battle and became a captain officer, the old scene was restored to his home. The children's brilliance masked the pain of losing their husbands. The mother finally got out of her heart and recovered, becoming the object of envy for her neighbors. Then Kevin and Claude got married, took on most of the chores when they walked in, gave birth to their eldest grandson, Tess Aurey, and their mother became an old lady sitting in her blessing.

If the time stayed there, the mother would be very happy. Just because Claude went overseas, his whole family followed him to the mainland. In the Overseas Territories, Claude's family was naturally given the best care and privileges due to his high status. Mother and Kaifani are also surrounded by powerful people and the families of big businessmen who want to have a relationship with Claudella, making them a shining center of communication...

In fact, the mother was an ordinary family woman who liked to talk to others about street gossip. She was admired by these businessmen and the family of the local family, and soon lost in it. She thought that Claude's achievements today were due to her good teaching as a child, and started putting the old lady's score at home.

When a person believes in a fantasy she weaves herself, she becomes more and more stubborn. That was the case with her mother, who had forgotten what the real source of superior life was today, but thought it was the spiritual blessing of Mr. Morsan, who had died, that made her children the glory of the Fields family. So she started interfering with the children's future by arranging these things.

Because she was a mother, Claude, her sister Anna, and her brother Browick usually let her go, but nobody really cared about her so-called future plans. After his mother had asked his brother Browick several times to retire from the army when the owner of the Fields family asked him to be ignored by Browick. Mother decided to make the ultimate move to arrange a door-to-door affair for her brother, Browick, so as to close the flying heart.

As a result, his brother Browick's love became a tragedy as a result of his mother's intervention, so that Browick angrily abandoned Fields' last name and the name of his homeowner and ran away from home. This allowed the mother to attempt to use her brother Browick's marriage to cast a shadow over the Fields family's attempts to take it further. In disgrace and anger, the mother shifted her responsibilities to Claude, who had not taught her brother well, and decided to train her eldest grandson, Tess Aurey, as a qualified heir to the homeowner...

The only thing that mothers don't understand is that a true nobleman's brother can't be cultivated under the careful care of a woman, it's only the flowers in the greenhouse that don't experience the storm. Not to mention, Mother was not a brilliant figure, she was just a housewife, drowning and eccentric bias made Claude's eldest son a dude who had nothing but nobility, and a set of bad things he learned in the face was nobility.

But Mother was so proud that she thought Tess Aurey had become Claude's most suitable successor under her cultivation that she took the idea of Claude's hereditary family territory and wanted Claude to hand it over to Tess Aurey for management. Then Claude hit him directly in the face, not only failing to respond to his mother's request, but even ignoring his wife Kevin's plea, he resolutely threw his eldest son, Tess Orey, into the barracks and rebuilt it as a scrap iron...

So Mother, and Kevin, broke up with Claude, left the Overseas Autonomous Territories, and went back to White Deer City, because the forest court case went to Wangdu, and then there was a bigger farce in Wangdu. Ridiculously, the glory of the Fields family has become the obsession of the mother, and the fact is that the mother disgraced the face of the Fields family. Claude believed that if his father, Mr. Morsan, had a spirit after his death, the coffin plate could not be pressed down.

And his wife, Caffrey, is also a part of Claude's headache. Anyway, Claude had two sons and one daughter, and all these years of couples still had feelings. But she has also lived with her mother for a long time, and is contaminated with the virus of the glory of the Fields family, naively believing that listening to her mother can cultivate a true noble son, exhausted her mind in the noble education of Tessuore, but she herself knows that her eldest son does not enter the eyes of Claude, the father.

What Claude didn't understand was how that kind, innocent Kevin had become so selfish in his impression that he was angry about Kevin's refusal to adopt his brother Blovik's twin children and thought Kevin didn't give a damn about his brother's affection. But it's only now that I realize that Caffrey is really very considerate.

Not to mention, this forest deed thing, Claude had no idea, so many people were being muddled. Claude handed over the deed to his brother Browick to convert it into a family estate deed. As a result, Browick, his brother, did not take it personally and turned to Kevin for custody of the deed.

Generally speaking, Caffrey should talk to Claude, but Caffrey didn't say a word, and nobody knew that the family, including her mother, thought that the 5,000 acres of forest in White Deer City had long been converted into family property, and nobody had asked, until Mother and Caffrey were in litigation to expel their mother and son from the estate. Kevin had just come up with a deed to the woodland, sturdy hit his mother in the face, and won the case.

It's not a fuel-saving lamp, Claude, and I don't know how to comment on Mother and Caffrey's case right now. After all, the mother's brain is already ridiculous and unhealed, she can't handle it herself, even though she will still be scolded, asking herself to ask for money to be honest and strong, giving her enough, not giving and scolding herself as unfaithful, anyway, she is not human inside and outside, she can only avoid it a little...

As for Kevin, I don't know how to say this, beating his mother to shame, beating his three mothers and children will be evicted from the estate, and homelessness is also a joke in the eyes of Wangdu people. Even with Swanson Butler and Sergeant Kester and others around, don't worry about no place to live, but that's not what Claude wanted.

“How's my mother doing?” Claude asked.

The housekeeper Swanson hesitated: "My lord, the old lady doesn't have any of us, but her housekeeper and I said that the old lady was busy transferring her identity as the Viscount of Honor to your brother these days, and borrowing huge sums of money from Her Majesty as a golden fee and land selection fee to get a hereditary family territory for your brother..."

Claude was shocked: "Is she insane? How could her Viscount title be passed on to Albert when it came to my dead father's seizure? ”

“Yes,” the Swanson butler nodded: "The royal court has rejected the old lady's request and has passed it on as a joke. At the royal court, noble ministers questioned His Majesty's conferral of the title to the old lady, arguing that the old lady had disgraced the face of the royal nobility and demanded that Her Majesty deprive her of her title. But I heard Prime Minister Blanchard pushed it down. I don't know why, nobody ever mentioned it again..."

Claude hummed satisfactorily, and Prime Minister Blankett was quite intelligent, knowing how confused the old lady was, who was also Claude's mother. Even if Claude's relationship with his mother was any worse, this mother's and child's identity could not be changed. And it was said that Claude wasn't being unfaithful, but that his mother was too confused. If you really think of the old lady as a clown and make a little too much noise, maybe Claude will be angry.

“What about her family territory for Albert?” Claude asked again.

“As if it had succeeded, the person who originally granted the loan said that the old lady was old enough to apply for the loan in her name, fearing that there would be an accident in the process, fearing that the heir would be unwilling to assume the debt or inherit the title of the loan and walk away from it, so there was a restriction on applicants of the old lady's age that the money was out of hand. ”

The Swanson housekeeper thought about continuing: "For those kingdom aristocrats who are somewhat older and less well off, Her Majesty's lenders have their own set of rules, namely that the applicant and his appointed heirs are jointly obliged to repay the loan. In the unlikely event of any unexpected change, the applicant's appointed heir automatically inherits the title and debt for the first time.

Moreover, in the course of the loan, the applicant and his designated heirs did not receive a gold krone, but received directly from His Majesty the territory of their choice, and the required martial and land selection fees were paid directly by His Majesty's lenders to the royal vault and then signed and stamped by the applicant and the designated heirs, for which the debt became effective. ”

Nima, the queen had a formal process of lending, and Claude whispered in her heart, “Do you know where my mother chose Albert's territory? ”

Counselor Swanson shook his head and said, "I don't know, sir. I received a message from your hawk leaving Wang Du without seeing the old lady's butler and not knowing what they were doing. ”

Well, Claude waved, and if Mother really chose a hereditary family territory for Albert, this would be a good one. But now he's asking another question: "Have you seen Albert? ”

Swanson nodded: “I've seen him several times, four times, I think. The last time I went shopping at the market, he pretended to run into me, had to take me for a drink. Then he asked me about the overseas autonomous territories of the master and his wife, and I didn't feel right. I just let him leave, and I went back to the estate and told his wife about it. ”

“You did the right thing.” Claude expressed satisfaction with the Swanson butler's approach, then asked: “How do you feel about him? ”

The Swanson housekeeper thought about it and answered somewhat uncertainly: "Sir, I don't know what to say, but I'm sure he's lying if he's a playwright. He can't write, neither his body nor his fingers look like a literary man. Especially his vocal behavior, and his collegiate temperament.

I met several newspaper editors in Wang Du, all of whom had marks on their fingers from a long handshake, but not on his fingers. His skin was smooth and he did not have the habit of sitting in writing for a long time. I doubt what he said about his nearly two decades of travelling on the Farea continent and his experience with scholars from many countries is also a lie. ”

“Then think again, who do you think he looks like?” Claude got a little curious.

Swanson's butler thought hard and frowned: “My lord, if I may be offensive, I feel he is a bit like a con artist, the kind of dealer who sells fake goods at the market. It sounds good, but I really listened to him and bought something to go home to to know the kind that I was falling for...”

Claude cracked his mouth, and he really didn't expect Counselor Swanson to give his cheap brother such a review. It seems that Albert has not had an easy time in the last two decades of his disappearance, and may have to find out for himself who he really is. For now, however, there is no need to rush, just hope that he can settle his confused mother. The owner of the Fields family has nothing to do with him, and he and his brother can't see each other anyway.

“What about the madam now?” Claude cares about his wife.

“The Lady is now very brief and rarely goes out and stays at the estate to take care of Miss Amelisa. Because of the lawsuit with the old lady, some aristocratic ladies are also visiting for afternoon tea.” Counselor Swanson replied.

“So she didn't want to go back to overseas autonomy?” Claude asked again.

Swanson Butler shook his head: “Sir, in recent years Madam, Young Master and Miss are not going to go back, they will all stay in this estate outside Wangdu. Young Master Byrgazi had just paid a visit to a scholar as a teacher in Wang Du. ”

Claude stared: "Did the scholar get it from his wife or was it recommended by someone else? ”

Counselor Swanson laughed: “None, this scholar was found by Young Master Er himself. Master, you know that Master Er always loves books as much as he loves to hide and read them quietly. While the wife and the old lady were still living in Wangdu Palace, the second master's favorite was to show a servant around the book market, sometimes all day.

The scholar, a history professor at the Royal College of Arts and Sciences, had a quarrel with Young Master Er over a history biography book in the book market. Young Master Er said whether there was an opinion in the book or whether a record was incorrect, it was made up by the author. Because the author was a good friend of the scholar, the scholar said that Young Master Er was talking nonsense.

He did not expect Young Master Er to have a good memory and directly ordered several book titles, stating that the views in these books were the exact opposite of those recorded in the book in which they argued. The scholar turned around and discovered that Young Master Er was right. His author friend was too lazy to go and look at the information. By his impression, he wrote and was discovered by Young Master Er.

After this incident, the scholar made a good impression on the Second Young Master and often talked to him. On one occasion, he went home with Young Master Er. He told his wife that he loved Young Master Er very much and wanted to take him as a disciple with him. When Young Master Er reached the age of next year, he would be allowed to study at the Royal Academy of Literature. The lady was pleased to say yes to the scholar's request. By the way, this scholar is Dromenk. Franco Faresco, famous in the kings, is a renowned historical archaeologist in the kingdom. ”

Perhaps this is called heart-planting flowers that don't blossom and heartlessly insert willow into the shade. Claude's two sons, his mother and Caffrey, were mostly concerned with his eldest son, Tess Aurey, who preferred him. And my second son, Bargazi, doesn't like his mother and Kevin very much. I don't know how to say this. The child is cold, doesn't like to be wrapped around adults, doesn't like to go to his brother Tess O'Lee. That would make Grandma and Mom feel delicate and accustomed to being on the side of the cold...

When I learned to read, I fell in love with reading, reading everything, sometimes sitting there holding books for a day. Sister Anna has tested his magic talent, unfortunately she has failed. Anna told Claude he would be a good magician if he passed the Bargazi magic talent, because his personality was quiet and lonely.

The eldest son, Tess Ole, was cared for by his mother and Kevin, and was educated by them to be a dude, almost obsolete. Instead, his second son, Barghazi, was not noticed by his mother and Kevin, and he became a silent individual. It's really ironic to say that I don't know how they feel about their mother and Kevin.

Claude laughed: "Swanson, I set up a manor and a woodland here for two days, and you go back to Wangdu and hand over the deed documents for the manor and the woodland to Madame, and tell her that this is also our property, so she can have some refreshments. One more day, I'm going to the North Bay, and you're in charge. ”
