MTL - Heroes of Silver Moon-Chapter 37 : Cousin Guy

If a town wants to prosper, it must have people who are willing to live here. Otherwise, even if the town is built on a gold mine, it still cannot prosper.

"Then shall we go to the castle of my uncle's house now?" Simon asked Sylvia, he thought that his uncle should also live in the castle, after all, he was also an earl.

"No, Earl Farid is not a real nobleman, so he didn't build a castle," Xiver said helplessly to Simon.

After all, Master Simon is a man who has basically never been to the Alpine Castle, so he has very limited knowledge of the outside world, and only real nobles can build castles.

After all, if it is not a real noble, if it is difficult to spend a lot of money to build it now, and when the next generation finds that the castle cannot be passed on to the descendants, it will be a waste of time and money.

"Um, where does uncle usually live?" Simon really knew too little about this world. In his impression, nobles generally lived in castles.

"Earl Farid has a mansion in Layton Town, and their family usually lives there." After Xi Weier finished speaking, he pointed to a large courtyard and continued: "Look, that's there."

Wali drove the carriage and stopped in front of the mansion's gate. The guards standing in front of the gate immediately walked over after seeing the carriage, and said to Xi Weier, "Who are you?"

The guards of the noble family are more polite, after all, maybe one day they will be arrogant and domineering, and they will directly provoke a big noble to the main family.

Just like the current Simon and his party, they are obviously the eldest son of an earl, but they are sitting in such a shabby carriage.

"I am a vassal of the Hawke family, Knight Xavier," Xavier introduced himself first.

Then he pointed to the carriage and continued: "In the carriage is Count Valery's eldest son, Count Farid's nephew, Simon Hauke, Count Valery and Count Farid have made an appointment, let Master Simon and Count Farid tomorrow The young master of your family will go to the capital together."

"Hmm, ummm, can I show you your ID?" the guard said happily.

At first, when I saw how shabby this group of people was, I thought it was some little nobleman who came to visit Earl Farid.

But he didn't expect that the person in the carriage was actually Count Valery's eldest son. Fortunately, he was more polite. If he had been rude just now, he might have lost his monthly payment again.

"Well, it should be." Xi Weier knew that the guard was only doing his duty, so he didn't make things difficult for the guard, but took out his identity certificate from the cloth bag hanging on the horse.

He reached out and handed the identity certificate to the guard. The guard opened it and saw that it was indeed a knight certificate certified by the kingdom, and it also showed that the lord was the Hawke family.

The guard respectfully handed back the identity certificate to Xi Weier. Although Xi Weier is only a knight, he has also entered the ranks of nobles.

As a guard, he was still a commoner, so he had to show the necessary respect to the nobles.

"Please wait a moment, I will report to Earl Farid," the guard gave a general salute to Xi Weier.

Then he said to the guards who were still standing at the door: "You guys, please help these guys park the carriage in the yard. This is the honored guest of Earl Farid."

"Yes, vice-captain," several guards at the door shouted in unison. It turned out that the guard who came over was their vice-captain.

What, you asked me where the captain went, don't you know that when on duty, the deputy captain has to temporarily perform the duties of the captain, so that the captain can be lazy?

The deputy captain ran into the mansion to inform Earl Farid, while the guards at the door led Simon and his party to the side door for carriages to enter and exit.

There are no steps here, and it is also very spacious, allowing the carriage to enter the yard easily.

Valli parked the carriage, then put down the stool and opened the carriage door. Simon stepped on the stool and got out of the carriage. Before he could stretch himself, Simon heard Uncle Farid's voice.

"Oh, my dear little Simon, and Knight Xavier, welcome to come." Farid walked slowly to Simon's side with unhurried steps.

First, he touched Simon's head, and then hugged Xi Weier heavily.

"Well, dear uncle, thank you for your hospitality," Simon said with a look of embarrassment, and then complained in his heart: I'm so tired of pretending!

After chatting with each other, Farid took Simon and Silver to the banquet hall that had already been prepared.

That's right, after all, Farid is also an earl conferred by the king. Although he doesn't have actual control over the territory, he has everything that a nobleman should have.

Simon followed his uncle into the banquet hall, and found that the banquet hall of his uncle's house was much smaller than that of Gaoshanbao, which was as it should be.

Valéry is a feudal nobleman. Apart from entertaining guests~www.novelbuddy.com~, he usually also entertains his vassals. After every battle, the celebration banquet is also held in Alpine Castle.

Therefore, the banquet hall in Alpine Fort must be larger. On the other hand, Farid has no vassals and usually only entertains some guests, so there is no need to build such a large banquet hall.

After all, the bigger the banquet hall, the more expensive it is to build.

At this time, several people were already seated in the banquet hall, and Simon saw a graceful lady and three children of different ages.

There are two men and one woman, the oldest one is two or three years older than Simon, and is already considered a teenager, and the second one is a pretty girl, about the same age as Christine.

As for the third one, Simon took a closer look and found that he should be about four or five years old. Looking at the attire, he should be a boy, sitting next to the lady.

It should be his aunt and a few cousins, Simon guessed in his heart, Farid led Simon and Silver to sit down, and then introduced them.

"Little Simon," Farid stretched out his palm to the lady, and then said with a smile, "This is your aunt, Hana."

Hearing his uncle's introduction, Simon hurriedly said hello to Hana: "Hello, Auntie."

Xi Weier also greeted with a smile: "Mrs. Hana".

"Well," Mrs. Hana smiled and nodded when she heard the greetings from Simon and Silver.

"Little Simon, let me introduce you to the remaining three too," Farid continued to introduce Simon after Hana finished responding to Simon and Silver.

"This is my eldest son, your cousin, Guy," Farid extended his hand to the boy.

Then the boy smiled and said to Simon, "Hello, cousin."
