These big shots are actually me - #452 - Chapter 452
Every time he heard it, Sabant felt that if he had been there at that time, he would definitely not have been as lucky as his grandfather and successfully survived.
After all, every time he went to the city, he would see a bottomless pit created by the aftermath of the war.
The first time he saw it, he was so frightened that his legs trembled and he felt dizzy. Without him, that deep hole could fit a mountain into it!
And such extraordinary power was actually just an insignificant aftermath of that horrific battle.
Therefore, Saibant, who lives in this peaceful era, is very satisfied with everything he has.
In addition, he also feels that both the future and current life are very promising.
I still listened to what his grandfather said, saying that although the Terror War brought destruction and disaster, a new order was also established after the Terror War.
And it is very biased towards the beautiful order of people at the bottom like them.
At least his grandfather had told him more than once that when he was a child, noble men could kill people at will without any punishment.
This is unimaginable for Sabant.
The impact was even greater than when he saw the huge crater.
Because he couldn’t understand that even if those noble gentlemen were not afraid of the laws and judges of the principality, weren’t they afraid of the church and its knights?
Sabant obviously remembered that as long as there was conclusive evidence, everyone, including the beggar he had only heard of, could go to the local church unconditionally and report all illegalities and injustices to the church’s priests and knights.
And if it’s really urgent, they can pray directly to any god on the spot.
Under such circumstances, the young Saibant could not understand why any nobles dared to be so presumptuous.
Aren’t they even afraid of the great gods?
Don’t they know that the gods are great beings who can even create that giant pit at will?
These problems have troubled young Saipanchi for a long time.
When he grows up and understands, he will be extremely satisfied with his current environment.
The life of aristocratic gentlemen seemed to be more luxurious than he could imagine.
But Sabant also knew that he, a farmer’s son with no background, was a person enjoying equal rights just like the nobles!
Therefore, Saibant has been living a very happy life.
But recently, he encountered a very difficult problem.
He fell in love with a very nice girl.
What’s even better is that the very nice girl likes him too.
This was originally a good thing, but there was a very big problem – he was a commoner, but the girl was the daughter of a noble.
It is true that even the emperor cannot openly bully a peasant regardless of law and morality.
But this is not something that law and morality can help him with.
Because in the current understanding of law and morality, their union is indeed not illegal, but it is immoral.
If the other party wants to prevent their union, it is not illegal and is very moral.
After all, as the daughter of a noble, she has enjoyed the convenience brought by her status since she was a child, so she must dedicate herself to her family.
Now, it was time for her to come forward and make a contribution – to marry a newly successful businessman through a political marriage.
In this way, merchants can become honorary lords according to the laws of the principality and receive good tax reductions.
The noble side can obtain a large amount of political donations from the son-in-law.
This is also the only convenient way to make profits for the nobles who have gradually lost their ability to make money after the new order was established and the legal and regulatory mechanisms were completed.
Sabant often hears people in some taverns say that in a few generations or even ten or twenty years, the main body of the nobility will become this merchant-like commercial aristocracy.
Sabant doesn’t quite understand why the honorary nobles are referred to as business nobles.
But he understood that he and the girl he liked might not be able to get together.
As for why the son of a farmer can get together with the daughter of a nobleman.
That’s because the quality of his family’s vegetables is very good, so since his father’s generation, their family would often drive to each other to send fresh vegetables in exchange for money.
In addition, the girl was ugly due to congenital reasons.
Therefore, Saibant had the opportunity to come into contact with this noble lady who was not favored at home.
At first, they met just because the girl couldn’t stand the cold eyes of her family and came to the backyard to escape.
Later, she became interested in Sabant, a peer who was not disgusted by the ugly birthmark on her face.
That was the first person who didn’t show any strange expression after seeing her!
And Saibant also likes to communicate with this girl who knows a lot and always gives him a glass of hot milk to relieve his fatigue.
He also went to a church college that was free for everyone, but he might not be the type to study. It was clear that his brother not only learned everything taught in the church college, but also received a recommendation to go to the National University in the capital of the principality for free. University studies.
Therefore, he doesn’t know much and is a bit clumsy. He yearns for those magical knowledge and insights.
I also really like this girl who is willing to tell him these things in an interesting way.
After going back and forth, this is how they got together.
But later, all this changed.
This wonderful girl is about to marry a stranger because of family reasons.
Sabante felt very sad, and so did the girl.
But they don’t seem to have any solution.
They also thought about elopement.
But in the end both of them gave up on the idea.
It’s not whether it can, but it shouldn’t.
This is unethical.
I don’t know if it was because of the family’s intention, or because they didn’t want to make the two of them hurt each other without any solution.
In short, Sabante can still deliver food to her family and successfully enter the backyard.
But he never saw the girl again.
After several times in succession, he knew that the last meeting might be the last.
With some complex emotions that he couldn’t express at all.
Sabant drove the carriage, which was as empty as his heart, on the way home.
Because there is no extra load, the carriage moves very easily.
The newly built national roads in the principality under the supervision of the church are also very smooth and easy to walk.
This has always been a great enjoyment for Sabant in the past.
Because not only was it easier than before when the national highway was not leveled, but he also had the reward for his hard work in his arms.
But now, he feels that this road is very difficult to walk.
The newly built national highway is obviously many times better than the previous bumpy dirt road.
But now it is so rugged and difficult to walk.
Sighing, Sabant stopped the carriage on the side of the road, then squatted aside with a frown on his face.
But immediately, he looked behind him strangely.
There is a very beautiful cobblestone path there.
Obviously his evaluation of the road has always been smooth and uneven.
But today this road is different, it is really beautiful!
So much so that his first reaction was the word beautiful.
After confirming that the horse was really tied to the tree, Sabant walked curiously onto the cobblestone path.
Under the supervision of the gods, thieves are already rarer than beggars.
After all, the supreme original has returned.
No one wants to lose the peace of their resting place.
Also, Sabant clearly remembered that there was no such road here when he came last time.
At least such a beautiful road, if there is one, he will definitely not forget it.
After walking along the cobblestone path for a long distance.
He saw a very simple cabin.
In front of the wooden house, many beautiful flowers were planted.
These flowers are basically ordinary flowers commonly seen on the roadside, but the people who cultivate these flowers must be very ingenious.
Because in her hands, the wild flowers on the roadside that no one would notice clearly looked so nice and beautiful here.
Saibant was not highly educated, so he could only scratch his head and stand there admiring it, unable to say any beautiful praise for it.
With a creak, Sabant noticed that the door of the cabin was pushed open.
The moment he heard this voice, Sabant hurriedly waved and said:
“Sorry, I’m not a bad person, and I don’t mean to disturb you. I just saw an extra road here and came over curiously. I”
But before Sabant could speak, he had completely forgotten what he wanted to say.
Because the person who opened the door and came out should be the mistress of this room.
And she is so beautiful!
Sabant once met the sister of the girl he liked. She was a beauty well-known throughout the principality.
And he also married a foreign nobleman.
I heard that at that time, this shocked the principality for a long time, because the gap between their family’s titles and the other’s was too big!
At the same time, it’s also because I don’t know what went wrong in this matter.
Not only did their family’s situation not get better, but it got a lot worse.
That’s why their family was hurriedly preparing to marry off their little daughter, who was unloved and almost had a facial disability, in exchange for a foundation that would allow them to continue to maintain their luxurious life.
But even she is such a beauty.
It is far from comparable to the one here.
So Sabante was dumbfounded.
How can people be so beautiful? !
The next moment, Sabant lowered his head in embarrassment, and then said:
“Sorry, you are so beautiful, but please don’t worry, I don’t mean any disrespect. Yes, yes, I’m sorry for disturbing you, I’ll leave now!”
But Sabant turned around when he heard a man’s voice from behind:
“There’s no need to be in such a hurry. I remember that our home is still a little far away from the main road. After walking so far, we might as well stay and have a cup of tea!”
:Family Extras Like God and King |
In the yard of the cabin, Sabant sat uneasily. And from time to time, he will try to arrange his clothes with small movements that only he can see.
Because he always felt that the male host in front of him was too noble. The noble man and a little person like him were completely different worlds.
Although he didn’t know where this feeling came from, he intuitively felt that it was absolutely correct.
To be honest, when he heard the other party inviting him to stay for a cup of hot tea, he actually wanted to leave quickly, because he always felt ashamed when facing such a person.
But in the end he stayed, and he didn’t know why.
Maybe it’s because you feel you shouldn’t reject the other person’s kindness, or maybe it’s something deeper.
And after staying, the other party took the initiative to ask about his situation.
And bluntly explained why he always seemed uneasy.
In the other party’s gentle smile, Saibant unconsciously told the other party what he had experienced:
