Chapter 345: The Trash's Thoughts! (Monthly Tickets Plus)
"Little Gervis, come out for a moment. Father has something to say to you."
The silence in the restaurant lasted for more than half a minute. Gandalf, who was the most senior person among them, finally couldn't sit still anymore and stood up, shouting to Gervis in a slightly stern tone.
Gandalf's stern tone was of course meant for Nathan to hear. After all, it would be impossible for Nathan not to blame Gervase for what happened. However, it was certainly not Gervase's intention. It could only be said that all this was a joke played by the gods.
Hearing Gandalf's shout, Gervais stood up obediently and followed Gandalf out of the restaurant without saying a word. Although he was now a viscount and lived in his own castle, Gervais was still willing to respect his cheap father.
"Father!"
When Gervis came outside the restaurant, he shouted to Gandalf with a wry smile.
"You, you! Little Gervis, you are making it very difficult for your father! After all, your uncle Nathan only has this one daughter, and she has already become a titled knight. It would be fine if you could marry Vivian, but you are doing such an injustice to Vivian now!"
Standing outside the restaurant, the stern look on Gandalf's face no longer existed. Although there was a hint of blame in his words, there was only helplessness on his face.
Gandalf felt that if he were Vivian's father, he would definitely break Gervase's lackeys, so he gave Vivian a love potion at such a young age, but Gervase was his son.
"Father, I know I am sorry to Vivian, but Vivian is just like that. Once she makes up her mind, she won't change!"
Gervis smacked his lips, not knowing whether he should be happy or sad.
It is definitely a blessing to be loved by such a girl, but I am currently unable to give Vivian any reward or promise.
“If only it were in ancient times on Earth!”
Gervis couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if it really was a journey through ancient times, then there would be no need to worry so much about this matter.
"Grevith, how about this? I'll talk to Nathan later and ask him to agree temporarily. After we return to the territory, I'll ask Vivian's mother to come here to persuade them!"
"However, you have to make a promise to your father that if you cannot give an explanation to Vivian, you will not do anything excessive to her! Otherwise, your father will not be able to explain to Nathan, and he will be sorry for your Uncle Nathan!"
Gandalf solemnly explained to Gervase.
"This is the only way now!"
Gervis thought about it and decided that this was the only feasible method at the moment. Anyway, the vassal knight could terminate their allegiance at any time as long as Gervis was willing!
"Father, don't worry! I still understand these things. I won't harm Vivian!"
After all, Gervis has experienced two lives and is not a fool. He certainly will not irresponsibly harm Vivian, who loves him deeply. After all, he cannot afford this responsibility now.
No man would be willing to hurt such a simple and lovely girl.
"Little Gervis, it's settled then. Father will talk to Nathan later and I'll guarantee it!"
Gandalf patted Gervase's shoulder with satisfaction. He still trusted Gervase's way of dealing with people this time.
After saying that, the father and son walked back to the restaurant and came to the long table. When Gandalf sat down, he immediately leaned over to Nathan's ear and whispered something.
Then Nathan looked at Gervis with complicated eyes. Seeing Gervis nodded to him, he said to Vivian helplessly: "Vivian, you are grown up now! You have your own decision, so your father will not persuade you anymore. However, if you want to go home one day, you can come back directly. Father and mother will be waiting for you at home!"
“Thank you, father!”
When Vivian heard her father's words, tears welled up in her eyes, and everyone present felt heartbroken. It really takes a lot of courage for a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl to make such a decision.
Seeing this, Gervis immediately winked at the maid beside him. The servant had just lowered her head and dared not make any sound. After seeing Gervis's look, she immediately took the tray and handed the handkerchief over.
Bonita took the handkerchief handed to her by the servant, began to wipe Vivian's tears, and whispered comforting words in her ear.
Next, the lunch lasted only half an hour. Although the long table was full of delicious dishes, everyone had lost their original appetite. Nathan and Gandalf just clinked their glasses frequently and drank a pot of wine that Gerves had in stock.
After lunch, Gandalf and the others continued to rest for half an hour and then began to prepare to return.
"Father, Lord Nathan! Be careful on your journey!"
"Little Gervis, see you at Rose Castle!"
"Master Gervis, thank you for your gift! I hope you can help me take good care of Vivian!"
Nathan and Gandalf responded to Gervase together.
As the saying goes, one should be grateful to those who have done good for him. Although Nathan was upset because of Vivian's matter just now, when he saw the whole carriage full of items on the side, Nathan's mood improved again.
Although Vivian made the decision to stay herself, it was ultimately because of Gervis, so the gift Gervis gave to Nathan this time was very generous. Of course, this was also because Nathan had done a lot for her this time.
Not only this time, but the last time Nathan came, he also helped him a lot. So now that he is well off, Gervis is no longer petty.
This time, Nathan was given 20 kilograms of tri-colored venison, two pots of golden wine, and weapons and equipment seized from pirates. These weapons and equipment were carefully selected from more than 900 pirates. The leather armor and long swords were no worse than the standard equipment of ordinary guards.
The gifts on this carriage alone were worth five or six gold coins. In addition to the gifts on the carriage, Gervis also gave Nathan a top-quality warhorse, which was captured from the Coconut Gold Knights.
Therefore, the gift that Gervis gave this time was definitely generous to Nathan.
As for Gandalf, it goes without saying that in addition to the same cartload of goods as Nathan, Gervis directly gave Gandalf five war horses, two of which were prepared for Bonita and Darius.
"Hehehe! What about me! Gervis! Why didn't you say hello to me!"
After Gervase greeted Gandalf Nathan, Bonita waited for Gervase to greet her, but she waited for a long time and finally couldn't help but take the initiative to speak!
"Oh, Bonita, bye!"
Gervis wanted to tease Bonita, so he replied reluctantly.
"Father, look at Gervis..."
"Set off!"
However, Gandalf turned a deaf ear to Bonita's accusations. When Gervis sent them to the gentle slope of the castle, Gandalf mounted his warhorse, nodded to Gervis, then shouted, and the huge team slowly headed towards the coastal town.
It is worth mentioning that the taxes that Gervase needs to pay to the church this year are also in Gandalf's group. Gervase handed the food over to the Knights of the Rose for shipment, and they will escort it to Winterfell. Then he will ask Alice to help him arrange it and hand it over to the church.
Ever since he saw the notebook on the Golden Island, Gervis had become deeply wary of the church. He felt that until he became strong enough, it would be best for him to avoid hanging around in places like the church.
Gervis also distributed benefits to the 50 members of the Rose Knights. As the saying goes, an emperor has no shortage of hungry soldiers, and Gervis would not let these Rose Knights fight for him in vain. Gervis rewarded each of them with 2 silver coins, which was the reward for their hard work.
Watching the team disappear at the end of the town, Gervis turned around and looked at Vivian, who was beside him and looked pitiful with slightly red eyes.
"Vivian, they're gone! Let's go back to the castle! If you want to go home someday, just tell me and I'll send someone to take you back."
"Thank you, Gervis! But I have made up my mind to be a political official in Storm Territory!"
Vivian's eyes became firm.
"Well! Then I will confer the title on you in the town tomorrow and announce your position as consul!"
Gervis sighed and felt even more pity for the girl!
