Chapter 5, Angus's Compromise
Uncle Oak sat on the ground, clutching a goose feather pen, crying intensely, while Tifa stood beside him, offering him a towel that he refused to take
The uncle has cried countless times from yesterday until now, and Thunder does not know how to console him
In the past, Colin often hit her, and upon hearing the word "hit," Tifa felt a chill.
Young Master Colin has a great deal! The butler nodded repeatedly, his demeanor exceedingly obsequious, "Please do not blame us; if anything is missing, the master has made further preparations."
As long as you are clear about it, there is no one else at home. Thunder placed the paper on the table, pulled Uncle Oak up, and slapped a small bag of gold coins onto the table. Yesterday, it was still said that life would gradually improve, and today it has already changed.
Thunder unceremoniously reached out to take it, flicked it a few times, and glanced at it; it was quite good. Originally, the estate at home was only about 200 acres, but now not only had it all been returned, but Angus had also gifted him a nearby pond.
"Then who..." Thunder waved at one of the apparent managers, "What are you all doing?" hetushu.com.com
What is going on? At first, Thunder thought someone had come to cause trouble or rob, but after watching for a while, he realized that the person was actually moving things into their own home. He hurried over to Ock and Tifa and asked.
The master said that there has been some misunderstanding between him and young Master Colin, and this morning he instructed me to bring something to you as an apology
When I have some free time, I will go find him for afternoon tea and, by the way, exchange some card skills" Thunder continued.
"Isn't it that someone delivered the goods to the wrong place?" Thunder also found it quite strange, while Tifa, with her bright eyes fluttering, looked at Thunder and felt it made a lot of sense, nodding in agreement beside him
What are you crying for! Thunder cannot stand to see a woman cry. A young girl in the prime of her youth, who spends her days without a hint of sunshine, only knows how to cry. If you cry again, I will hit you.
Go back and tell your master that I am very happy Thunder patted the butler's shoulder, making it feel heavy with each pat
Tifa, come with me to record! Uncle Oak waved his hand and led the only maid in the house to prepare. As he walked, he moved with a commanding presence, exuding confidence and strength.
After a busy morning, the goods were finally unloaded. The butler from the Angus family greeted Thunder and then took the servants back home, restoring the household to its previous tranquility
The items from several carts are enough for three people in the family to eat well for several years
Hurry up! Move all of Master Colin's belongings inside!" A voice rang out
Misunderstanding?" Thunder tilted his head and glanced at him askance
"Tifa, this is a happy moment; young master, do not blame her." Uncle Oak raised his head and quietly wiped the corner of his eye, which was also filled with tears.
The steward waved over there, and a attendant approached carrying a small pouch, heavy and emitting a clanging sound from within
There is only more, not less
"What about the lands in our family?" Thunder spoke halfway through, then turned to look at the steward
I don't know either," Uncle Oak said with an innocent expression, "They arrived early in the morning, didn't say anything about the books, just moved things into the house.
"Wait!" The steward quickly took out a bundle of land deeds from his bosom, "The master has given the order; these all belong to your family"
Angus and Tifa exchanged a glance, both bewildered and perplexed
The butler took it and then respectfully handed it over: "Young Master Colin, this is the money from the sale of grain from the estate over the past few years, as instructed by Lord Angus to be given to you"
"Hehe, young Master Colin is up so early?" Under the intimidating presence of the fierce-looking man, the steward turned around with a changed expression, hurrying over with a bow and a smile plastered on his face: "Young Master Colin, I am the butler of Lord Angus!"
Tearing off a large piece of roasted golden meat, he handed it to Tifa, saying, "Poor thing, eat more and put on some weight"
Thank you, Young Master Colin. Seeing that Thunder accepted these items, the butler also let out a sigh of relief
After Colin's parents passed away that year, Angus tempted the young and inexperienced Colin into gambling, resulting in increasing losses until he ultimately lost his estate.
The real trouble would be if he refuses to accept it
For lunch, we had barbecue, with Thunder personally cooking. He set up a fire in the yard and took out a piece of beef to grill. Uncle Oak was busy writing and calculating, while Tifa assisted him.
Thunder did not hold back, casually weighing the bag he received, which seemed to contain about 100 gold coins
Tifa shuddered all over and quickly stopped her tears
This is undoubtedly the most sumptuous meal at home in recent years. In the past, when Colin was the host and in his most destitute times, Tifa had to go out to forage for wild vegetables to make ends meet
Tifa's small mouth has cracked all the way to the base of her ears, unable to close.
The sun shone brightly, the wind was gentle, and after having breakfast, Thunder practiced a set of martial arts in the courtyard. He immediately felt refreshed and invigorated, with his meridians unblocked, which brought him great comfort. He then burst into hearty laughter several times.
However, Tifa, calm down a bit; even so, her face is flushed with a deep red
Angus has truly made a decisive move this time; not only has he returned the fief and the income generated from it over the past few years, but he has also sent a considerable amount of grain and meat.
Tifa laughed heartily, her vibrant figure leaping onto the golden bag, remaining there for quite some time.
Take it all, just take it! I have had enough of Angus's temper over the years; now, this is merely the interest.
"Young Master, should we take these things from hetushu.com?" Uncle Oke, overwhelmed by this happiness, asked with a beaming face.
Tifa took the call, lowered her head, and tears began to flow down her cheeks again
Yes, it is, and I will definitely convey the message
Outside the door, a cacophony of sounds could be heard. Thunder stepped out to take a look and saw a group of people busily moving things into the house, while Uncle Oak and Tifa stood by, watching in bewilderment
Uncle Oak trembled as he opened the bag, and was immediately blinded by a burst of golden light. He covered his eyes and fell back into his chair, mumbling indistinctly, "Take it away, take it away! It's dazzling my eyes."
What a generous wealthy man
"Young Master, please take a look." Uncle Oak approached Thunder and handed him the recorded papers.
In the eyes of ordinary people, wizards are beings that are unattainable, much like the masters in martial arts films. When the butler spoke these words, his hands trembled slightly
The butler's face turned into a purple liver.
Upon taking another look, it was indeed the case that several attendants who had been here yesterday were present. However, those attendants were carrying items and were circumventing the thunder, indicating that yesterday's magic had left a deep impression on them
