She Is Not a Witch Chapter 259: 4 people in the small courtyard
The three followed the little fat man thinking about walking to the beach. After turning a few corners, they slowly walked into a low-rise building complex. The ground here is not as clean as before, a bit messy. You can also smell a fishy smell.
Looking at the dried fish and nets around the house, it is not difficult to guess that this is the place where the fishermen live in the city, which is relatively poor.
"The people who live here are not very rich, so they don't care to make it very clean. Ladies and gentlemen, please don't follow it."
"It's so average, but it's still a lot better than the slums." Alina leaped slightly, jumping over a small water beach, speaking her own opinion.
Unlike Letis, she was born well and delicate, so she is quite used to this environment. Lily was a little unaccustomed to what she said, clutching her nose and looking around.
Lorrain Hill followed at the end, she put a veil on her face, and then looked around.
Many houses built with mud-bricks and mud-bricks have only one or two floors. Some of them have clothes in the air. Some women sit in front of the door, mending things, and occasionally look up at the pedestrians on the street.
Several people were walking along the road. A woman in a fuchsia skirt came over. She was wearing a pair of copper rings on her wrists, and she looked pretty good.
"Triton, what are you doing?"
She seemed to be familiar with this little fat man, and asked casually.
"Are these few people?" She turned her gaze to the three girls behind her.
"Wow, old sister, you can count on coming. I went out to work today. I didn't do a good job. I was caught by a few elders. I had no choice but to come back and ask you for help." She said Winked at the woman.
"Uh..." The woman hesitated a little, then turned around and said to the three Alina.
"Sorry, my brother has just changed his job recently and may not be doing very well. I hope you can forgive me."
Alina didn't answer, she turned a little bit, looked at the woman, and said, "Do you know what your brother is doing?"
"It should be.... It's not something earth-shattering." As the girl looked at it, the woman's tone was also a little uncertain.
"Explain it yourself, or I will tell your sister." Alina looked at the little fat man.
The woman frowned slightly and looked at the little fat man, and asked seriously.
"Triton, did you do something bad."
"Where, I really don't, Sulis."
Is this woman Sulis? Lorraine Hill looked at the scene before him, and then several people were taken to a small courtyard by the woman.
The yard is small, but relatively clean, with only a small amount of green moss on the corners.
"Will you come in for a while?" The woman opened the door, revealing the small table inside.
A few people walked in and looked at the room a little curiously.
There is an old wooden cabinet in the house, with a table and two stools in the middle, and rows of wooden boards nailed to the wall with clay pots and cups on top.
"Now I can tell you what happened." The woman called Triton, who was the little fat man just now.
After some conversation and explanation, the woman knew what had happened, and then taught the little fat man a lesson.
"Actually, I am not his elder sister, but I am more familiar with each other." Then Su Lisi still talked about the origin of the two.
Triton used to be the doorman of a large hotel (upscale hotel) in Ubere. The owner of this hotel is also the city’s large chamber of commerce, so he has a good life, so he grows white and fat. People like it.
But two years ago, Ubere suffered a sudden change and civil strife. Several large chambers of commerce were annexed and collapsed. The hotel management also changed their blood. The new supervisor did not wait to see these "old people" and was suppressed by the crowding out. The little fat man is also unemployed, and now he can only do some chores to make money.
As for this woman, she is a third-rate actor herself, and sometimes assists in performing in the opera house in the city, earning a small profit.
"In fact, Sister Su Lisi's acting skills are very good, but no one appreciates and is not famous." The little fat man interrupted at this time.
"How did you guys meet?" Lorrain Hill was a little curious.
"I used to be a member of an opera troupe, and I often went to the hotel with my companions, so I knew him. But now I am no longer in the opera troupe, so my life is not very good."
"Is it also because of the upheaval two years ago?"
"Well, the old businessmen like to watch interesting and beautiful performances, so the opera troupe has a good income, but after the group of wizards came, they did not agree with this kind of performance, so the city slowly stopped Whatever the show, the opera troupe continues to lay off staff, and life becomes difficult."
"They haven't seen a real performance, but I've seen a performance by the Twilight Brigade." The little fat man said confidently. He once hosted this well-known opera company.
"Twilight Brigade." Alina raised her finger and thought for a while.
"It is indeed very famous, I have also heard from my father."
Lily also said at this time: "My mother has watched them perform very well. It is said that they are touring around the world and their whereabouts are uncertain."
Lorraine Hill recalled her experience in Hopeland. At that time, many people compared her performance with the Twilight Brigade. This opera troupe was indeed very powerful.
"Okay, that's it, it's getting dark, we're leaving."
A few people looked at the sky outside the window, remembered the previous agreement, and stopped staying, and got up to say goodbye.
"Stop doing this kind of thing in the future, learn some skills, and find a practical job." Lily returned the purse, Alina and Lorrain Hill added some more to it, and then warned Said.
"Thank you ladies, but I don't want this one." Sulis pushed the purse back.
"Um...Don't, Sister Sulis, there is still my original money in it." Terry Tong was a little reluctant.
"You called my sister, I must control you." Su Lisi glared at the little fat man and continued.
"Besides, did you say ‘I have an old sister who can’t get married’?"
"This..." The little fat man was speechless for a while, looking around.
"Chuck..." A few people laughed for a while, and then said goodbye again, leaving the small courtyard, heading to the seaside pier, and meeting with another group of comrades.
Not long after the few people left, an ordinary carriage drove into the small courtyard and stopped.
A young man who drove jumped out of the car, his white shirt was already drenched with sweat.
"I'm back, Alan." Sulis waved, then went back to the house and started cooking.
"Yeah." The young man drew a bucket of water from the well and drank several times before slowly letting it go. Although he was dressed in ordinary clothes, he looked good and smelled of sunshine.
"Brother Allen." The door of another house in the small courtyard opened, and a little girl walked out. She was wearing a blue and white skirt. She looked good, but the edges were washed white and some shabby. .
"Well, is Little Luna obedient today?" He knelt down and stroked the little girl's head.
"Yes." The little girl nodded.
"Haha, that's good. It's a pity that you can't walk around at will. Wait a few years, and then go out and find a good person." There was a bit of compassion in his voice.
"What a good person, I think it would be better to make money by yourself, live by yourself, and live more comfortably." The little fat man walked over a little cursingly.
"Luna be good~" He knelt down and was about to touch his head, but the little girl hid him.
"Hello, brother Terry~IndoMTL.com~Luna poked her head from behind Allen and looked at the little fat man.
"Luna didn't get close to me, obviously I rescued you from the fire at the time, ooh." Terry wiped his eyes and cried fakely.
A small hand is placed on Triton’s golden bird’s nest: "Brother Triton, don’t cry, Luna still has candy here."
She stretched out her small hand, revealing the red round candy in it, and passed it over.
Terry Tong immediately turned crying into laughter, and Sulis walked out of the room when he heard it, grabbed the candy in Terry Tong's hand, and returned it to Luna.
"You still have to think about it, how can I explain to you tonight, I almost attracted the big shots, if the masters in the city know Luna's whereabouts, we must not be wanted."
After all, this child is the only living heir to the Philura Chamber of Commerce.
Looking at this well-behaved girl, Sulis couldn't help but recall the changes and fire two years ago, the crowd running in panic, the waving of blood and swords, and the several large chambers of commerce that collapsed overnight.
