Fashen live room

Chapter 29 Nephew
Before coming to Colin's dinner, Franklin's lunch came first.

Norman has never had the concept of lunch, so when the 4 clock struck and everyone started to eat lunch in the restaurant, he realized that there is such a thing as lunch in the world.

People in the city are so extravagant that they eat three meals a day.

Norman happily enjoyed this luxurious life while eating bread and drinking mushroom soup.

After lunch and a short break, everyone returned to the living room to prepare for class.

According to the usual practice, Franklin usually taught literature and mathematics in the morning, and theology and law in the afternoon. Today, he explained all the teaching directions of the day in one morning, and he didn't know what to talk about in the afternoon.And Franklin lived up to everyone's expectations. After taking a break for dinner, he directly announced the learning content for this afternoon.

"In the afternoon, you can study by yourself,"

When Franklin said this, his expression was calm and serious, not like he was joking—of course, this little man with triangular eyes never joked.

"Review the content I taught in the morning a few times, and then consolidate what you have learned before. The annual exam is approaching, and it is meaningless to teach too much new content. It will only increase the burden of your studies and will do nothing The effect, the review is the most important."

It was rare for Franklin to say a long speech, and most people would only be so abnormal when they were guilty.

Review by yourself?

The students were all taken aback.

They had never experienced such a thing before, and they didn't know how to react for a while.

The students were at a loss, but Franklin was confident.

"Norman,"

He called Norman's name, "Come with me, your mother has something to tell you."

Norman, who just heard that he didn't respond to his review in the afternoon, didn't feel that there was anything wrong. Norman was shocked now, and he was more confused than all the students on the scene.

His mother had something for Franklin to tell him?

how is this possible!His mother died when he was very young, how could Franklin have something to tell him?And even if his mother is still alive, it is obviously impossible for him to know such a noble mage as Franklin.

After hearing this, the other students showed a clear look on many faces, with a detached self-satisfaction of "it's not what I expected".

Sure enough, I said it myself, this big man must have a kinship relationship with Mr. Franklin, and looking at it now, it is indeed the case.So it's only natural that he enjoys the special treatment that Bernie said.

From this point of view, they will have to establish a good relationship with Norman in the future. After all, he is a relative of Franklin who does not know how far away...

Norman got up from his seat ignorantly, walked to Franklin, followed him out of the living room, went upstairs, turned left and right, and entered a room with three bookshelves.

"close the door."

Following Franklin's words, Norman turned around and closed the door, then turned his head and saw Franklin standing in front of the only window in the room, pushing the window open, and looking at the sky outside with his back turned.Seen from behind, this thin but haughty figure really looks like a tall man.

"Mr. Franklin."

Norman hesitated, but still asked, "You said my mother has something to tell me, do you know my mother?"

He thought about possible answers countless times on the way up just now. For example, Franklin is actually his dead mother's brother, his uncle, and now he recognizes him. For example, his real identity is actually a certain important person Master Franklin is now ordered to tell him the truth and ask him to go back and inherit the title of that noble...

He thought a lot, but he just didn't expect Franklin to shake his head directly, and simply said: "I don't know."

do not know?Then why did he say that?
Norman was even more confused about what was going on now, and his mind was confused. Fortunately, Franklin solved the doubts in his heart for him.

"Norman,"

Franklin called his name, turned around, and the sun shone in from around his side, making his front face in shadow, and his face even more gloomy.

"You are in danger now. When I was in the living room just now, I felt that the atmosphere was not right, so I cast a detection magic 'Mage's Eye', and I saw some people trying to harm you. It's just that there are many people. They probably don’t dare to do anything yet, but it’s hard to say when there are few people, such as when you go out every night and come back.”

Norman had already told him that he would go out every night and come back at 8 o'clock.

"It's impossible for me to stay by your side forever, so I came up with this method, pretending that you are my relative, hoping to make them feel more scruples through this intimate relationship, what do you think?"

Franklin actually thought of going with the students, and planned to use such a method to cover up Norman's brilliance so that others would rob the students.

Of course Norman didn't know Franklin's real thoughts, but this didn't prevent him from seeing something wrong.

Relying on his extraordinary observation ability, Norman noticed that although Franklin looked serious and deliberately turned his face up when he was speaking, there was an unusual look in his eyes, which seemed to be... secret joy?
This obviously has nothing to do with what Franklin said.

There must be another real reason.

Norman thought about it, but his head nodded, and he followed Franklin's words: "Okay, okay."

Although I still don't know the real reason, but since Franklin said so, then he should do it. After all, Franklin is feeding him, living in him and accepting him as a student for free. He can't do without Franklin, Franklin Let him do whatever he wants.

It's also fortunate that Franklin didn't know Norman's real thoughts, otherwise he might blame himself for complicating simple things and thinking too much.

After Norman agreed, a slight smile appeared on Franklin's face, which was connected with the secret joy in his eyes, and the expression was unified, representing his true mood.

"Okay, that's the deal. From now on, you will be my... nephew."

Then he walked behind the table and sat down, and asked Norman to move a chair over to sit opposite him, and said: "I think you still have a bit of talent for ancient Chinese, and you are different from those below. It will slow down your learning speed, so we will come here every afternoon for one-on-one individual teaching. On the one hand, it is convenient for you to learn ancient Chinese, and on the other hand, it also reduces the time you spend with that dangerous guy among those people. , try to ensure your safety. Also, you can’t disclose the ancient language knowledge that I teach you alone. If someone asks, you can say that I am teaching you the basic knowledge of literature and mathematics. In addition, your ancient language knowledge The mastery should also be kept secret from other people, if someone asks about the relevant things, you will say that you don’t know, this is also for your safety..."

Norman's other aspects of knowledge are really bad. Franklin thought that this guy might not even be able to spell a complete word, so he gave the excuse of "supplementing basic knowledge" and the relationship of kinship, so Individual teaching is also reasonable.

When Franklin said this, Norman listened to it, and kept nodding his head saying that he agreed, but he didn't take it seriously: Because he had observed Franklin's strangeness before and had preconceived notions, now Norman felt that Franklin was talking about everything he said. lie to yourself.

But Norman didn't bother to pursue the real reason, as long as he could get benefits from Franklin.

And when Franklin finally explained everything, the two finally got to the point.

"In the morning, didn't you read those two old sayings and what they mean?"

Franklin looked at Norman, holding back the words until now finally able to speak.

"Now, you draw them all."
