Movie World I Am A King

Looking at Catherine who kept kowtowing to him, Zhou Ye showed a smile on his face...

"Catherine, what are you doing?" Seeing the actions of his eldest daughter, Jacques Dark was really shocked and angry...

Jacques was shocked because he didn't expect his eldest daughter to do this—he was angry because he was afraid that the foreign nobleman in front of him would really feel compassion and listen to his eldest daughter... Then he would really shocked.

What did that little box of gold represent to Jacques? ?

The box of gold represented that Jacques was able to buy the land of the entire village, and became a landlord from a rich peasant; It is enough to enjoy it at home; it means that from now on, he also has the opportunity to step into the threshold of high society...

It represents—he, the Duck family, can use money to buy a title of the lowest rank from nobles... From then on, he can escape from the peasant class and step onto a higher level of noble class...

Why is Catherine still eighteen years old and still not married in this age of early marriage? ? ,

Is it because Jacques is not willing to give up a dowry, and a ready-made labor force at home...

Although, Jacques Dac can already be regarded as a rich peasant...but he can't be called a landlord...he still belongs to the bottom of the society...

Of course, what Jacques is most afraid of is that his eldest daughter 293 offends that young nobleman who looks easy to talk, and makes him rob him in a fit of anger... Then he will cry so hard that he can't find a tune...

Don't think that the nobles in this era are so particular... Those guys have been lawless for a long time. The glory of their so-called nobles is nothing more than putting down the butcher knife in their hands, putting on gorgeous dresses, and pretending that they are a civilization. People... It's not like they can't do things like massacre villages, especially in this era of wars everywhere, just find any reason... they can pick themselves clean...

"My lord...don't listen to her nonsense...she just..." Before Jacques finished speaking, Zhou Ye interrupted...

"Don't worry...the decision I made will never be changed!" Zhou Ye waved his hand slightly to Jacques...indicating that he doesn't need to say anything...

Hearing Zhou Ye's words, Catherine slumped on the wet ground all of a sudden, all thoughts were lost, and she finally couldn't help but burst into tears. "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…

"My lord, I'm sorry...I'll take Catherine away now..." Jacques carefully looked at Zhou Ye's face, he was afraid that there would be a hint of impatience on Zhou Ye's face, which meant that this lord was going to be angry ...that would be bad. Thinking of this, Jacques hurriedly shouted: "Isabella...Isabella...take your daughter away!"

"Don't worry..." Zhou Ye waved his hand to stop Jacques from moving... Then he bent down slightly, and gently raised Catherine's chin with his hand...

"Woooo..." Catherine was still crying, but facing Zhou Ye's actions, she didn't dare to resist, so she could only slightly raise her little face unwillingly.

"Crying so sad... It seems that you and your sister have a very good relationship!" Zhou Ye said with a smile, raising his hand to wipe the tears on Catherine's little face... I have to say, as Joan of Arc Her older sister, Catherine, is also a delicate beauty, especially after Zhou Ye wiped away the stains on her face that she accidentally got from cooking, she felt a bit more delicate...

"Yes... woo... my lord... woo... Joan of Arc was brought up by me... woo..." Catherine choked up while answering Zhou Ye's question—maybe it was because of Zhou Ye The gentle action of wiping her face made her feel a little more fond of the handsome young nobleman in front of her.

"Then are you willing to follow me? This way you can also take care of your sister..." Zhou Ye had a smile on his face like a big bad wolf seducing a little white rabbit.

Hearing Zhou Ye's words, Catherine asked with surprise: "Really?? Can I really be with my sister??"

"Of course it's true..." Zhou Ye said with a smile.

"That's really great... I am willing...My lord, I am willing to follow you and become your maid!" For Catherine, Joan of Arc can almost be regarded as her daughter to some extent—after all, Joan of Arc After birth, because of her parents' busy schedule, she almost brought up her younger sister... Her relationship with Joan of Arc was far beyond the imagination of the Duckers...

"No... my lord... Catherine is my only daughter..." Jacques was a little anxious... a daughter is fine, but if he sends the eldest daughter away, he will have no children...

"Don't worry..." Zhou Ye waved his hand at Jacques, and then waved back slightly. Debra, who was standing behind him, bent down obediently, and put her little head in front of her master. Zhou Ye After whispering a few times in her ear... Debra turned around and walked out with a few sword servants.

Not long after, they walked in carrying two small wooden boxes that were exactly the same as those just given to Jacques...

"One of the boxes is the settlement allowance of your eldest daughter Catherine, and the extra box is considered as a gift from me... just as compensation for you, after all - you lost all your children..." Zhou Ye said with a smile.

"This... this..." Jacques looked at the two boxes of gold that had to be placed on the ground in front of him because he was afraid that the old dining table would not be able to bear too much weight... he was struggling repeatedly in his mind...

In the end—he still lowered his head deeply... He knew that he couldn't refuse such a temptation... He acquiesced to Zhou Ye's statement.

Seeing Jacques' actions, Zhou Ye smiled slightly...

He is not despising Jacques, on the contrary - he understands Jacques very well, no matter in the East or the West, only sons... daughters can inherit the glory of the family, and they will always be from another family... This is the same between the East and the West .

With this money, Jacques could even work harder and let his wife give him another son...

As for Jacques' snobbery? That's even more surprising to Zhou Ye... Don't you see, even in a society where men and women are called equal in later generations, parents who sell their daughters are still everywhere... Why do you have a house and a car? Wan's dowry... What is this special thing about selling a daughter? There are also people who persuade their daughters to be mistresses for money... What is Jacques?

This is true for those parents who have received higher education in later generations, not to mention Jacques, who is at best an illiterate in this era?

Catherine, who was still kneeling on the ground, looked blankly at Zhou Ye, and then at her father who was hanging her head down... She couldn't believe that she had become someone else's maid so soon... She My father didn't even pretend to...

"Okay, cherish your last time with your family..." Zhou Ye gently pulled Catherine up from the ground, "Tomorrow, we will leave here...Maybe, you will never come back in this life Here it is..."

"Hmm!" Catherine nodded her head like a puppet without a soul... It's one thing to want to save your sister, but it's another thing to be sold by your own father... For Catherine, she couldn't believe that her father was so...resolute.
