    Hearing Anna’s question, Lily panicked for a moment, but immediately raised her chin, and said nonchalantly: "So what? Fortune telling you, Master Parrish is very generous, he doesn't care about your rudeness, you can Come back well!"

    She stayed there after she pushed Anna. After seeing Anna being carried into the carriage by Master Parrish, she was panicked for a while, afraid that Anna found out that she pushed her by herself, and feared Master Parrish would be affected by Anna's appearance. Confused, didn't dare to stay any longer, ran back in a panic. It wasn't until she saw Anna limping back just now that it was obvious that Master Parrish hadn't been seduced by Anna at all, and she didn't feel relieved.

    Tomorrow she can go to work in the earl's mansion, and of course she will no longer put Anna in her eyes, admitting that it doesn't matter to push her!

    Listening to Lily confessing without guilt, Anna's heart was filled with anger.

    If it weren't for Lily, how could she be targeted by the demon? When she saw the demon in Master Parrish's body in the carriage, she almost cried. She was so scared of watching horror movies in her previous life, OK!

    After refusing the devil several times, she could still return safely, and Anna still feels like a dream.

    But as long as think about it, she still feels heart palpitations, and the culprit of all this is the Lily who has harmed her and still doesn't know how to repent.

    Anna felt that if she didn't care about Lily, she would be too sorry for the core socialist values.

    She suddenly drew closer in Lily's surprised eyes, staring into Lily's eyes and said: "Do you think you will definitely get the job? No, I will take it."

    Anna never clashed directly with Lily before. Suddenly seeing her like this, Lily was stunned and almost jumped up and shouted: "You dream! Do you think the lord will let a bitch like you work? No recommendation, you even count. You can't enter the door of the mansion!"

    Anna didn't quarrel with her, only said: "Don't be a bitch. You are cursing yourself when you scold me. As for whether I can go in, let's wait and see."

    After talking, Anna pushed Lily away and went back to her home. Lily stomped outside and screamed for a while before going back.

    Anna said that she wanted to grab a job from Lily, but it wasn't an impulse.

    She figured it out. If the demon is still staring at her, it doesn’t matter what she does. If the demon doesn’t pay attention to her, she goes to work in the kitchen of the earl’s mansion, and Master Parrish, who is possessed by the devil, won’t have it. Contact, it doesn't matter.

    So she said a lot in front of Lily just now, and she was really in the mood to give it a try.

    But what if you really can't even enter the door?

    …If you can’t get in, you can’t get in. Looking for a job and having a closed door, she has encountered many times in modern times and in this world. How can adults not even be able to bear this kind of frustration?

    Anna tore the wheat bread that little Tim gave her into small pieces, went to her room first, and gave little Evan and Adele one piece each. The two of them took it with wide-eyed eyes, and said in surprise: "Thank you Anna!"

    Anna saw that the two were eating sweetly, smiled, turned around and went out, knocked on the bedroom door next door, and walked in after hearing Guy's response.

    "Mom, this is white bread from Little Tim. I divided it into six portions, and I have divided them into Adele and Little Evan."

    Guy put down the glass beads in his hand and took the bread Anna handed over, looking at the small portion, it seemed a little lost.

    "mother?"

    Guy returned to his senses, smiled softly, put a small portion of white bread aside, patted his side and said: "Anna, sit down, mommy has something to tell you."

    Anna had some doubts, walked over and sat down. But because she accidentally involved the wound, she couldn't help frowning.

    Guy quickly asked: "What's the matter?"

    "Nothing." Anna shook her head.

    Guy frowned, suddenly lifted Anna's skirt and saw the hideous wound on her knee.

    She exclaimed: "Goddess, how did you get hurt?"

    "I accidentally fell." Anna had no choice but to give an explanation casually. She didn't want to say more about the devil's matter.

    Gay naturally did not expect that his daughter would encounter such a weird thing as “being framed and pushed to the car of the nobleman, who would have known but met the son of the lord possessed by the devil, and then rejected the devil’s several marriage proposals to ensure the safety of the soul”. After looking at Anna's wound distressedly for a long time, he sighed, "It's useless for Mom and Dad to take good care of you."

    Anna hurriedly said: "No, Mom, we have never been hungry, you have done well enough."

    This home is indeed barely adequate for food and clothing, but this is a problem of the general environment. What can small civilians do in such an environment?

    But of course Anna was not willing to eat and wait for death at such a bottom...

    Guy didn't know if he had listened to Anna's words, and was silent for a while and said, "Anna, you are seventeen years old this year."

    Anna felt a little in her heart, and quickly sat down.

    When Gay mentioned the issue of age, Anna was a little nervous. The age of marriage in this world is relatively large. There are people who get married between the ages of thirteen and thirty, and there are also many people who get married at the age of two and three. However, the common people at the bottom generally get married earlier, while the nobles get married a little later. According to the original impression, the average age of marriage for aristocratic women is 234 years old.

    The original body may have never thought about the reason behind this difference, but Anna thought that it should be related to the living standard and the resulting difference in average life expectancy. The living conditions of the low-level civilians are poor. If they don't get married early, they may not be able to have children. The nobles live comfortably and their average life expectancy is much longer, so marriage will naturally be postponed.

    Anna is now seventeen years old, which is just the right age for marriage for ordinary women.

    Guy went on to say: "Your father and I are thinking about finding you a husband recently. Little Tim is a very good boy. He should like you and always send things to our house. If you don’t object , Your father and I went to the old Tim to talk about your marriage."

    Anna thought, for the original Anna, maybe little Tim is a very good husband candidate. Little Tim's house is very good for civilians, and they are shy and considerate. There is no sign of domestic violence at the moment. After they get married in the future, they can have a few children, maybe one or two of them will die early, but most of them can grow up, and then their ordinary life will pass.

    But Anna didn't want to live such a day where she could see her head at a glance.

    In modern times, her work has just gotten on the right track, and she wore it before she could flex her muscles. She doesn't like the world, but she can't go.

    She doesn't expect to be able to change this world, personal power is too small, but she also doesn't want to be changed by this world.

    "Mom, I don't want to get married yet." Anna looked at Guy, trying to show her seriousness.

    Guy sighed, hugged Anna and said, "Mom doesn't want to marry you so early. But if you marry little Tim, you will live a better life. You can eat white bread like this every day. ."

    Anna shrank into Gay's arms and nodded: "I know... but I want to make money for buying white bread every day."

    Guy touched Anna's head and whispered: "There are many people staring at such a good boy as Tim, and I missed it. It is difficult to find a good husband like him."

    Anna said, "I won't regret it."

    She got out of Guy's arms and looked at Guy with a smile: "Mom, I just learned that Lord Lord's Earls Mansion is recruiting maids, I want to try!"

    Guy was a little surprised when he heard this: "Lord Lord is hiring a maid? Really?"

    "Really, I will go to the earl's house tomorrow." Anna said, "I'll talk about marriage later, mother!"

    Gay and Evan respect their children’s opinions more than the rest of the world’s parents, otherwise they would not ask Anna to discuss her marriage. Therefore, at Anna’s plea, Gay finally nodded: "Then you Go and try! Goddess, if you can become the maid of Lord Lord's house, you can find a better husband in the future."

    Anna nodded happily, and did not refute Guy's words.

    If she can become the maid of the earl's mansion, she can undoubtedly save a lot of money. If she is rich, she will have greater autonomy. If the husband is not the husband, let's talk about it at that time.

    The pub was open until early in the morning, and when Evan and Jem came back, Anna had fallen asleep. Jem moved very quietly, sleeping on the outside of the big bed, did not wake Anna, but when Anna got up in the morning, Jem, who had always been a little sleepy, woke up.

    Anna hurriedly whispered: "Sorry Jim, my voice is too loud, you can go to sleep. Oh, yes, I left white bread for you and dad yesterday. It's delicious, you remember to eat it."

    Jim was only ten years old, but he was as reticent as Evan. He didn't get up when he heard Anna's words, and mumbled sleepily: "Okay, Anna."

    As he said, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

    Anna wore her best dress today. It was gray-blue. Compared with the smoky-gray dress yesterday, it made her look more beautiful. She also tied her long red-brown hair with a centipede, and she looked refreshed with a hint of girly vivacity.

    Father Evan was still sleeping, Anna said goodbye to her mother Gay, and Gay said "May the goddess bless you" and sent Anna out the door.

    There are mages in this world, and naturally there are religions. Everyone believes in the Goddess of Light. Both Evan and Guy are devout believers. At least one-third of the money saved every month will be dedicated to the Church of the Goddess of Light in Blue Rock City.

    The specific pattern of this world is not something that the original body can understand. She probably only knows that she is in the Principality of England, and there are other principalities surrounding the independent Holy See, the goddess of light. The Holy See dispatched clergy in various principalities. The Blue Stone Church presided over a priest. Anna saw from her memory that it was an unremarkable middle-aged man, but the original body was full of awe for the priest.

    Anna knew the location of the earl's mansion, because the knee injury still affected her movement a little, she walked for half an hour to arrive, and the "first pass" was stuck.

    When she explained that she was applying for the Earl's Court, the guard told her that no one recommended it and she could not enter.

    Anna recalled what Lily had said. Lily did say that she did not recommend that she could not go in.

    But she didn't want to just give up, so she had to plead with the guard: "Please, please let me in. My family is very innocent... By the way, a maid named Anna also recognizes me."

    Anna did not hesitate to borrow Aunt Lily's name, but the guard was unmoved, and his face gradually showed impatientness.

    At this moment, a person came over and smiled: "I recognize her."

    Anna and the guard turned their heads, and the guard immediately smiled and said, "Brother Shane, why are you free to come here?"

    Anna recognized each other, and he was the coachman who drove for Parish yesterday!

    "Isn't this a relative's child looking for a job." Shane smiled naturally.

    Because Shane has been driving for Parrish, although Shane is just a coachman, he has a lot of face. When he said this, the guard immediately said: "Since it is someone Shane knows, it must be no problem!"

    "Hahahaha, I will invite you to drink later!" Shane laughed, "Then I brought her in?"

    "No problem! I should ask Brother Shane at that time!" The guard also laughed.

    The two of them just decided to let Anna go in. Anna was a little confused when she followed Shane the coachman.

    Is she here now?

    Wait a minute... Does this mean that the demon is still staring at her?
