Chapter 495: The Watson Family Pursuing Wolf Nature
Chapter 495: The Watson Family Pursuing Wolf Nature
A certain cousin's face was livid, but she could only bow slightly: "Please forgive my rudeness, Miss Watson."
"Of course, unintentional mistakes are always forgivable." Sophia Watson raised her chin and said some very irritating words in a very playful tone.
Cheska silently suppressed the dissatisfaction that had arisen in him since he heard the girl's name.
Although the other party seems to be attacking Lowry's ideology, Sophia Watson herself has the temperament that a noble lady should have.
Cheska shouldn't actually underestimate her.
Having witnessed how Valeera struggled in an environment surrounded by enemies, she should not look down on any girl who worked hard for her future.
There's nothing wrong with being ambitious and wanting to be better, especially for girls who are unlucky and live in a cruel family.
Not everyone has the luck of Valera and the strength of Lady Yagris... Even some girls with great talents will also become more expensive luxury goods.
No matter how perfect the bright, pure and large gemstones on the counter look, they are merchandise that anyone with money can take away.
She is obviously very beautiful, but in order to make her look more beautiful, the sellers will use various means to smooth out every edge and corner of her and then cut out countless beautiful but harmless facets... making her, who was originally round and thick, unable to resist because of the loss of flesh and blood.
No matter how many tricks and means one has, if one is not strong enough, a normal person can only choose to endure.
As long as the measures she took were harmless to them and did not affect the lord in any way, Cheska should not look down on others.
She leaned against the wall, silently watching the two men exchange final greetings in a very standard way… one tried to use his age and posture to show the humiliation of being bullied, while the other used polite words to secretly mock him, but her heart was filled with turmoil.
Having been in charge of Qingfeng Territory for so many years, she has become somewhat arrogant!
Because of Lori's abilities and her wide social circle, Qingfeng Territory's internal and external interactions were all going smoothly, and Cheska's orders were not constrained at all. She was a little bit arrogant.
She forgot that she was just a level 10 knight, and a most ordinary level 10 knight at that.
She is no different from her parents who were striving to become nobles.
If it were them standing here... they would only give Sophia Watson, the daughter of a serious baron, the most perfect smile.
Cheska cut off the pride that had been rising in her during this period, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved: no matter whether she was getting carried away or not, in her heart, loyalty to Lori would always come first.
She would never make decisions on important matters herself because of Lori's tolerance.
When facing her idol, Mrs. Yagris, since childhood, Chesca is always the little girl with eyes full of longing and will never show too much confidence.
Add to that the dragons in the castle… Although the pride was sudden, it had not yet swelled.
Then she discovered it.
very nice.
She hadn't done anything to disappoint the Baron!
Although she knew very well that the Baron would not be dissatisfied with her for being too arrogant and indifferent to outsiders, at most he would remind her subtly...Lori would always tell the truth to the four siblings and remind them directly.
But Chesca himself didn't want to.
This is different from the mistakes in the past that occurred due to lack of ability and vision. This is a character issue.
Forgetting one's roots is always the source of bad things.
Lori could care less, but she couldn't.
The faint sounds of conversation gradually died down.
Cheska raised his head and looked at the courtyard where only one person was left.
Sophia Watson is still here.
"I want to stay here for a while, is that okay?"
Seeing Cheska's gaze looking over, Sophia Watson asked with an embarrassed look on her face.
Really, she is a very good actress ~ even better than her sister Valera.
Thinking about the somewhat inappropriate words, Chesca smiled at her: "Such a beautiful courtyard is a perfect match for a pretty girl.
Please feel free to do so. I can enjoy the view as well. "
Sophia Watson was a little surprised, and a rare hint of surprise flashed across her calm blue eyes.
Although it disappeared quickly, this was the most genuine performance Chesca had seen her in such a long time.
Even when she was mocking the young master with whom she was originally discussing marriage, Sophia Watson actually did not show any emotional fluctuations.
Although their parents were not good people, the Tollers did leave some good things for them.
Except for Taylor who is a little bit worse, the other three are all good at observing people's words and expressions.
Valera and Charisse also have a little more acting.
Although Chesca didn’t add anything in the acting department, she did have some experience with her deadpan expression and her observation of her sister.
This girl has superb acting skills, but she is just acting.
Chesca could tell it intuitively. Although she didn't know why Chesca suddenly changed his attitude towards her, Sophia Watson immediately seized the opportunity.
This is what she is best at.
"Ms. Cheska, that person just now seemed to be looking for trouble with you?" She raised her little face and tried to open her eyes wide. The tears in her eyes immediately covered her pupils, making her expression look sincere, pitiful and cute. "Did you offend her?"
"I really don't remember who she is." Chesca smiled, "But judging from her age, she should be about the same age as my sister."
"Valera, ma'am?" Sophia Watson quickly understood the reason.
Valeera's past was no secret, and the northern nobles knew a lot of information about it.
Especially the most embarrassing period for her, when she was sent to a lower-class aristocratic fraternity.
The woman just now was actually quite powerful. She was an official knight after all, but she could only marry the youngest son of the baron who didn't even have the title of manor knight. Naturally, she was the one chosen at those banquets.
Although as the wife and child of the baron's younger brother, she was eligible to enter the noble marriage meeting in the North, she did not have an invitation letter and could only be brought in by the baroness.
Families like these, whose wives are formal knights and whose husbands only have blood ties but no ability, generally will not move out of the noble castle and will inevitably depend on the baron for their lives.
If a child with good qualifications is born, he or she will be recognized by the baron. For example, like now, the baroness will take the child to socialize with the nobles.
This is actually a very good life for some female knights who come from humble backgrounds and want to join the nobility.
It is conceivable that the lady was much more popular at the banquet that year than Valera, who was only beautiful, otherwise she would not have married a husband of her prime.
Sophia Watson certainly knew where she came from.
Although Sophia herself had never participated in that kind of banquet, she had certainly witnessed it.
The Watson family pursues a wolf-like family. Useless people must work hard to make themselves be put to good use.
After the awakening ceremony at the age of eight, girls, regardless of their talents, will be taken to visit that kind of banquet so that they can understand how terrible the future will be if they don't work hard.
Of course, the boys also have their place to go, although it is of a different style. But from how hard they work after coming back, you can tell that it is not a normal place either.
Just like Sophia Watson and her cousins, after seeing those girls who were either beautiful, talented, or both, lower themselves to such a low level just to please a few men older than their fathers, or the trash they never looked down upon, they almost never slacked off.
Even if you don't have enough talent, you have to work hard until the last second, even if you faint on the practice field every day.
Even if they fainted, it didn't mean their mission for the day was over.
After being woken up by cold water and eating a nutritious but tasteless dinner, they still had to work hard to learn knowledge such as etiquette, manners, and aristocratic common sense.
If you want to be free, you can either get married when you reach adulthood... and marry well, or serve in the border army for ten years, and then you can get a little freedom when you come back.
But the premise of all this is that the Watson family must not embarrass themselves in public.
Most of the Watson boys and girls chose the latter path.
After all, trying to find happiness in a marriage arranged by the family is no different from seeking death.
The Watsons had no tolerance for shirkers.
The same goes for those who are not talented enough. If they cannot join the formal army, they can go into logistics. Of course, more often they follow behind their talented brothers and sisters and look after their baggage and horses.
Sophia Watson has actually accepted such a future.
At least she had a choice.
However, things change all the time, and no one knows which cloud will bring rain.
It just so happened that the lords of the northern border changed one after another, and the lord of Leon's control over the border troops was mainly focused on logistics, without intervening in the formal military sequence.
Baron Watson, as a rare level 15 knight in the North, has so many Watsons under his command, so naturally he had some ideas.
He didn't want to do anything else, he just wanted to expand the Watson family's influence in the border army.
Even if Leon Hamilton found out, he wouldn't care too much, since they were not his people anyway.
But Leon was going to be king.
A big man who has been working in the king's army for who knows how many years and is stronger than him is coming to the North.
Baron Watson won't have any chance of success, because whoever comes will definitely find a way to restrain him.
Baron Watson still has some resistance to matters in the army, but he is in trouble in the territory.
The Barony wants to confront the Border Earl?
He is not Lori Montes, who can make all power struggles disappear in front of him.
Baron Watson thought about it and saw his beautiful young daughter.
