Rise of the blood elves

335【Embarrassing misunderstanding between brothers】

"what are you saying"

Malfurion was at a loss and noticed that Illidan's eyes frequently drifted to his pants. He thought there was a stain on his pants, so he stretched out his hands and brushed them a few times, but he didn't find out what the problem was.

Brother, don’t you admit it yet?

Illidan sighed helplessly and looked down at the purse in his hand.His elder brother, Malfurion, was tall and handsome, with a thick, masculine beard that was very in line with the aesthetics of the night elves.

In nearby villages, there were many farm girls waiting to be married who were secretly attracted to him.Although Illidan's appearance is not inferior to his brother's, he always keeps people away due to his slightly gloomy temperament, which makes people not very willing to approach him.

Illidan understood that if his brother was willing, there would be many ladies in the city who would be willing.

When I thought of the faces of those high-borne elves, Illidan instinctively resisted and couldn't bear to look directly at what his brother had done.But he also knew that his brother was far more principled than him, and for his own sake, he actually

Can do such a thing.

Illidan shook his head, feeling that his heart, which had been riddled with grief from losing his parents, softened.

The small satin purse is very delicate and exudes a very pleasant grass fragrance. The thread-tied opening is also embroidered with a waning moon with white thread.

Well, are you still a believer?

Illidan guessed the owner of the purse. Apart from the noble ladies in Suramar, he could not think of anyone else who would use such an expensive and useless item.Civilians are reluctant to use it, and they have no use at all. Firstly, they will never carry so much money when going out. Secondly, this kind of money bag tied around the waist clearly leaves a back door for thieves. Sew a pocket into the side of the underwear. Far safer than that.

He gently spread his hands apart, and the bulging money bag immediately collapsed, making a crisp sound of coins colliding.Through the wide opening, Illidan saw several gold coins and dozens of silver coins.

After a quick calculation, I'm afraid there are four or five gold coins in total.But Illidan, who was truly valuable, pulled open the silver coins and found another gold coin at the bottom of the bag. These were the three gold coins engraved with the image of Queen Azshara.

Because, although the official exchange rate is one hundred silver coins to one gold coin, the exchange rate in private circulation has always been higher than it.Even more than ten years ago, when the expansion war was at its most intense, the exchange rate on the black market once reached 140 silver coins for one gold coin.

But the empire’s biennial taxes were settled in gold coins.

The civilians either went to the Imperial Exchange Bank where the gangsters sent people to queue up maliciously. After waiting for several days, they had to make a compromise and exchange the gold coins in the hands of the gangsters at an exchange rate of 120 to 1, allowing them to earn the difference of more than 20 silver coins.Or go to the black market, exchange it for gold coins at an exchange rate of 141 to 1, and then pay the tax.

The common people all hold a grudge against the exploitation of the upper elf.Fortunately, the Queen later introduced a policy to abolish the system of settling taxes in gold coins within the empire, and the situation completely improved.

But no matter what, the money in the wallet was an unimaginable sum of money for Illidan, who worked at the culvert and drainage ditch construction site in the south of the city and his weekly salary was only two silver coins.

Too much, really too much

Not only did you do this kind of thing for me, but you also saved so much money. This cannot be saved in one or two times.

How long have you been doing this?

Illidan felt an annoying warmth rising from the bottom of his heart, as if something was stuck in his throat, and his vision was obscured by a layer of mist.

He hurriedly gritted his teeth, pretended to smooth his broken hair on his forehead again, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and blurted out:

"Brother, how long have you been hiding this from me? In two years, I will be able to save enough for tuition, and you don't have to do this or anything like this."

Illidan choked, unable to speak any more, breathing heavily and trying not to let his fragile emotions show.

Although the two brothers care deeply about each other, neither one will show this soft side that goes against the ideal of manhood.Especially Illidan, who was deeply moved and very embarrassed at this time. He didn't know what to say or what to do to express his abnormal feelings.

"Ah what are you talking about"

Malfurion was completely confused and took a few steps forward, looking at Illidan worriedly.Illidan has not been normal since his parents died. Could it be that he has some mental problem? Yes, that must be the case.

"You take it back."

Illidan calmed down and handed the purse back.

It's best not to provoke him with this thought. Malfurion put a hand on the money bag and comforted him softly:

"This is for you, Illidan. Haven't you always wanted to sign up for the Basic Magic Academy? With this money, you can learn the arcane magic you dream of."

Little did he know that these words fell into Illidan's heart, completely destroying the psychological defense of the son of prophecy who had the same golden eyes as Queen Azshara. According to the legendary prophecy of the night elves, the future would be extraordinary.

Illidan's tears burst out uncontrollably

Damn, damn

In my life, I actually cried twice in such a short period of time. No, this is not me.

Illidan roared in his heart, turned his head to prevent Malfurion from seeing his embarrassment, gritted his teeth and said:

"I don't need it. You take it back and go to the Moon Temple in the city to check your health. I heard that many of those noble ladies with immoral private lives are suffering from unclean diseases. Go and have a good check-up, don't get infected too. Don't let Tyrande know about those diseases. If she knew you actually went there, she would definitely break up with you."

Private life, unclean diseases, physical examination Elune, what on earth are you talking about? Malfurion felt as if ten thousand mammoth beasts were running past in his heart, and shouted:

"Oh my God, Illidan, are you insane? This money was given to you by Tyrande on my behalf to enroll you in the Magic Academy."

The atmosphere suddenly solidified, and Illidan, whose face was still stained with tears, turned back inch by inch, his face extremely dark, and the anger in his eyes gathered little by little.

“&”

Before Malfurion understood what was going on, Illidan cursed loudly, grabbed the purse, pushed him away, and ran away as fast as he could.

"I'm going to return the money to Tyrande." A few seconds later, Illidan's angry voice came from afar.

"Hey, wait a minute, hey"

Malfurion was neither chasing nor chasing. He exhaled in annoyance and watched Illidan, who never let himself worry, disappear from sight.

He sighed deeply, but suddenly he felt funny about today's misunderstanding. He couldn't help but laugh out loud. He shook his head, turned around, knelt in front of his parents' tombstone, and reached out to pick off a leaf that fell on the tombstone. , staring at the two lines of crooked names carved on the wood, fell into silence.
