Anna can only save a gold coin in the earl's mansion for a whole year, while ordinary civilians work for a whole year, except for living expenses, and may not even be able to save a silver coin. The other party speaks a gold coin, which is obviously a misrepresentation.

However, there is no law enforcement agency in this world. If there is a contradiction, it can be decided by the lord. But for the lord to make a ruling, three silver coins are needed each time. Ordinary civilians are generally reluctant and unable to take out this money. They will ask the lord to make a ruling. It is either a rich civilian or an ordinary little nobleman.

In most cases, the weak and the strong are the rules of the game among civilians in this world. Only if you have a lot of people in your family, or if you are strong, can you guarantee your own interests.

In an area, the people always tend to be stable, so some people rely on strength or fame to become a figure similar to the old man in the ancient East to mediate conflicts. Ordinary common people will respect him as the "Master" and accept the "Master". The results of the mediation.

The personnel in Shiliu Lane are relatively simple, no vicious cases have occurred, and there is no "master". Therefore, if Evan does not accept a gold coin requested by the other party, he can seek the ruling of the tavern owner, who is the "master" of that area.

Anna helped Guy deal with Evan's injury, but she couldn't help being distracted.

Bobby should have been scared away by her words before, but he probably went to Lily and Renee later. Compared to Lily's immaturity, her mother Renee must be thinking more and more vicious. This time Bobby went to the tavern to make trouble, she must have been raised by Renee.

Because of the follow-up development of this matter, it can explain some problems.

If the rumors are true and Master Parrish really wants to marry her, then if her family encounters this kind of thing, Parrish will surely settle for her, either directly give a gold coin or use the name of the lord’s son to scare away the error. Money.

But if Anna's family can't afford to pay, or if no one helps her family, it can be seen that rumors are rumors. In this way, Bobby will no longer panic, and may even marry directly.

No matter how good Anna's mind was, she seemed to be incapable of "no money".

This time the tavern trouble and temptation, she can't perfectly round it, unless she can really find Parrish to come forward and settle the rumors.

However, the rumors she made are still spreading privately. If she asks Parrish to come forward, not to mention whether he is willing or not, even if he is really willing... he will definitely learn that "rumor", and his She couldn't guess the reaction.

Parish usually seems to call her beloved affectionately, but when she asked to be literate, he refused so simply. She didn't really think he was illiterate. He just didn't want to teach her the maid. I don't think she is worthy.

She can be favored and teased by him as a woman, but she cannot enjoy knowledge that belongs only to the upper class as an equal person. Parish is a nobleman, she is just a commoner.

Anna was meditating, but she heard Evan say: "I will go to Master Abbas and ask him to mediate. That person's injury can be cured with only three silver coins, and we can afford it."

Guy replied, "Okay, I'll go with you."

Anna washed the linen towels in clean water, listening to the discussion between the two, silently.

On the side, Jim sat on the ground steadily, looking at Evan with his eyes unblinking. Adele took little Evan’s hand and looked at his father in fear and worry. He wanted to cry but didn’t dare, eyes It's red and wet, and it's really affectionate. Little Evan didn't know exactly what was going on. The child was lethargic. He held Adele's hand, his head little by little, very sleepy.

Anna poured the dirty water, came over to pick up little Evan, and said to Adele: "Adele, it's time for you and little Evan to go to bed, let's go."

Little Evan hugged Anna's neck tightly, Adele also hurried over to hold Anna's skirt, and walked to the bedroom.

Anna looked back at Jem again. He stood up quickly when he was sitting, patted the dust on his body, and followed.

After placing the three of them, Anna walked out of the bedroom again.

Evan and Guy had almost discussed it. Anna sat down and looked at them and said, "I'm sorry Mom and Dad, you bother me."

Guy beckoned to Anna, Anna lifted the stool under her body and moved over. Guy hugged her with a gentle voice: "You are our daughter, don't say such silly things."

Evan touched Anna's head. He rarely made such affectionate movements, so he seemed a little uncomfortable.

"Dad will protect Anna." Evan assured Anna.

Anna used to fight against the devil and could not tell the truth to others. She carried all the pressure on her own, and her mood had been a little depressed. Now she was comforted by Evan and Guy. She couldn't help but flushed her eyes and hugged them.

She is so happy, and there is a home as her backing.

She had traveled into this world for no reason, and she believed that the original Anna must have exchanged bodies with her. In modern society, it may be difficult for that Anna to adapt at first, but she believes that Anna will soon fall in love with the modern society, which is like a paradise compared to this world, and will help herself take care of her family.

And she is unlucky to travel to this world, but she will not feel sorry for herself, she will work hard to live a good life, and will also take care of the lovely family members of this body.

The next day, Anna went to work as usual, while Evan and Guy went to the tavern Master Abbas and asked him to mediate.

After serving Parrish, Anna stood quietly aside as usual.

What made her feel a little puzzled was that after possessing Ulysses, the demon seemed to be not active in deceiving her soul at all. These days, he didn't even take the initiative to say anything to her.

She couldn't help but start dreaming, could it be that he was already eyeing someone else? Such as Parrish's soul? Otherwise, the demon obviously didn't continue to attack her, why would he stay with Parrish all the time?

But... they are all male, how can the demon deceive Parrish's soul? Hmm... She is very sure that Parrish is heterosexual, and if the devil proposes to him, Parrish will definitely turn his face.

Think about it, to defraud human souls, there are other ways besides proposing marriage.

Anna was guessing how the devil could deceive human souls, and she heard Parish suddenly say: "Dear Anna, I recently heard a very interesting rumor."

Anna's heart jumped, but she didn't expect the rumor to reach Parish's ears so quickly.

At this point, she can't hide her, it's better to make good use of it, maybe this is still a chance to solve Bobby!

"I don't know what kind of interesting rumors?" As the initiator, Anna looked at a loss.

"It's about Anna and me." Parrish said and laughed. "I heard that in order to marry you, I hold you every day to teach you literacy."

Anna showed surprise on her face, and then said very angrily: "I don't know who it is, it is disgusting to spread such rumors to ruin the reputation of the young master!"

Parrish smiled and said, "When you asked me to teach you literacy that day, we were the only people present."

Hearing this, Anna seemed to have thought of something, her expression suddenly looked a little guilty.

Parrish, who had been paying attention to Anna's expression, asked, "Anna, have you thought of anything?"

Anna hesitated and said: "Yes, master... I remembered that I told others that I asked you to teach me literacy, but I never said anything in the rumors!"

"Don't be nervous, dear, of course I believe you. But it's not good for my father to hear this kind of rumors." Parrish smiled consciously and tolerantly.

Anna nodded quickly: "I see, Master Parrish, I will clarify immediately!"

Parrish smiled and said, "That's good."

After solving this trivial matter, Parish happily started his meal again.

And Rothgar, who has always been a bystander, couldn't help but sneer in his heart after watching Anna's artificial performance. Maybe Anna's performance can fool Parrish, but he can't fool him who knows Anna's nature.

After waiting for so many days, she had no signs of surrendering, and he became impatient.

After Parish finished her meal, Anna quickly left with her food box, walking more urgently than ever.

When Abigail and others saw Anna, they saw her depressed face.

The three of them rarely saw Anna being so sad, and quickly asked her what happened.

Anna looked at the three and said angrily: "Did you tell others what I told you?"

The three of them felt guilty when they heard this. They were interested in chatting in their free time. Of course, they didn't only chat with Anna, and when they were chatting, it was not normal to say a few interesting things they heard from others?

The three looked at each other, and Abigail said carefully: "Anna, what are you talking about?"

Anna said, "Did you tell anyone that Master Parrish is teaching me to read in order to marry me?"

Abigail quickly said: "No! Master Parrish asked you to marry me, we dare not go around talking nonsense, just saying that he is teaching you literacy... Can't we tell others about this?"

"But the problem is, Master didn't teach me to read!" Anna said deliberately angrily, "I was just begging him at that time!"

The three of them were taken aback, and couldn't help thinking back to what Anna said at the time... She really didn't seem to say that the young master had promised to teach her to read!

Fiona thought of Master Parrish, who had frightened her that day, she couldn't help but tremble, and asked quickly: "Could it be... Master Parrish heard the rumors?"

Anna said, "Yes, Master Parrish was very angry. He called me to talk for a long time, saying that it was not good for Lord Lord to know about it, so let me clarify the matter by myself. The previous rumors are from you. If it is spread out, you have to help me clarify it!"

Anna's words can almost be said to be based on facts, but in the ears of Fiona's three people, they heard another meaning.

Master Parrish is afraid that the rumors will reach the Lord's ears and will hurt Anna, so the rumors must be eliminated!

The three of them nodded quickly, and the rumors spread from them. Although it was not their fault that it spread out in another way, they also had to bear certain responsibilities.

Seeing the three of them agreed, Anna felt that the matter should be okay.

Parrish asked her to talk about the rumors, but in the end he only asked her to clarify without punishing her. Of course, this matter seemed to others to have an unusual meaning, plus her "add oil and jealousy", the old rumors. Being suppressed will produce new ones.

And even if Parrish heard the new rumors and called the three of them for questioning, it was impossible to ask that she was deliberately guiding.

She didn't lie again. Everything she said was based on facts. She was just using the art of language proficiently.

Anna is waiting for the rumors to ferment, and new rumors will become the reason for her family to respond to the tavern incident.

Because Master Parrish couldn't let the lord know that he cares about her very much, so the tavern incident will not appear for the time being. Wouldn't it be reasonable to let Anna's family deal with it by themselves?

Of course, if the other party goes too far, how could Master Parrish watch his beloved woman being bullied?

——Anna wants Bobby and the rest of the people involved to make such judgments, so she has scruples.

She hopes that the spread of rumors can be faster.

In the evening, when Anna returned home, she found that Evan and Gay were both recovering from their injuries at home. She hurriedly walked over and asked: "How is Mom and Dad?"

Guy frowned and said: "Things are not going well, and they will not let go. Master Abbas did not give the results of the mediation today. We will go again in two days."

Although Evan and Gay were not in a high mood, Anna relaxed when she heard the news. What she needs most now is time. When the rumors are fermented, if the rumors are over there, if they take the initiative to back down, there is no need to mediate!

The door was knocked suddenly, Anna went to open the door, but saw a bunch of flowers lying on the floor in front of the door.

After guessing that the flower was given by little Tim, Anna still received flowers, not every day, but the flowers in her vase have never been broken.

This time, she saw a figure running away, quickly picked up the bouquet, and quickly chased it.

"Little Tim!" Anna yelled to stop him after she got closer.

The figure stopped for a while and turned around slowly.

It was really shy little Tim.

It was getting late at the moment, and there were no street lights in Pomegranate Lane, but the moonlight was just right. In the dim moonlight, Anna could see clearly what little Tim looked like. Seeing her approaching, he took a small step back uncomfortably, and whispered, "How do you know it's me?"

"At first I didn't know. I thought it was given by Mark. He said it wasn't him, so I thought of you." Anna said, "Thank you for the flowers, but I won't use them in the future."

Now that Mark has been rejected, she certainly has to reject Tim. She will not want to get married for at least a few years, so why bother?

Little Tim's face turned pale when he heard Anna's words, but he couldn't see clearly in the moonlight.

He looked at Anna, with a little sadness in his eyes: "Anna, this is just a bunch of flowers, it's not valuable, don't you even want to accept this?"

Anna was reluctant to accept his white bread before. He didn't want her to be too embarrassed, so he secretly gave her flowers, but she didn't expect that she would not even accept flowers.

Anna sighed and said: "Little Tim, you have also seen the situation in our family. I'm sorry, I don't want to consider getting married yet."

"But..." Little Tim hesitated, and after a while he mustered the courage to continue, "Anna, as long as you marry me, Bobby can't persecute you anymore!"

Anna was a little surprised that little Tim made such a suggestion. After thinking about it carefully, what he said really made sense. In this world, all marriages must be witnessed by the Holy See in order to be blessed by the Goddess of Light. If you have the ability and ideas, there can be many lovers, regardless of male or female, but there can only be one legal spouse.

Therefore, as long as Anna marries little Tim and goes to the church to register, their marriage is sacred and inviolable, and Bobby can no longer ask Anna to marry him. And her family has little Tim and his father's help, so there's no need to worry about Bobby's troubles.

Intellectually, Anna knew this was a good solution to the problem, but when she came to the door from trouble, she never thought about it.

She has worked hard for so long, is she still relying on marriage to solve her troubles?

Although little Tim is very cute, she doesn't hate him or even has a good feeling, but she is not willing to accept his kindness.

Before Anna refused, she saw another person walking out of the dark.

mark.

He didn’t know how long he had been listening, he just looked at Anna and smiled honestly: “Anna, if you want to get married, don’t just think about little Tim, and me! I promise, if you marry me, I will definitely You are fine, if Bobby dares to show up in front of you again, I'll beat him up!"

Little Tim looked at Mark's sturdy figure and couldn't help feeling ashamed.

He couldn't help thinking, he seemed to be unable to protect Anna... Maybe it would be better for Anna to marry Mark.

And in a dark corner where none of the three of them could see, Rotgar, who was really waiting impatiently, came quietly to Pomegranate Lane and happened to see this scene.

He is very angry now.

Originally, someone tried to force Anna on his behalf, lest he violated the gambling agreement with Balan. He was very happy, but this Anna was too cunning and tricked two idiots to propose to her.

Did she see that the thoughts spent on Parrish and Ulysses were useless, and because the old widower was pressing hard, she planned to marry someone to solve this trouble?

Rothgar stared at the three people coldly, killing intent in his heart.
