Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 294: The Pious

"It's really nice."

A smile appeared on Memius' face.

"Think about it, if you go to the Crusades, you might end up fighting."

Annius said.

"I'm going to the Crusade!"

Memius said firmly.

Annius has become a patriarch. It would be a lie to say that he doesn't feel inferior to his former friends who have grown up to this point.

Now an opportunity was in front of him, and Memius decided to take a chance.

"It's a very good choice. Preparations for the Crusades have already begun, but they haven't been announced yet. You've been living in Rome for a while now, and I have something good to introduce to you."

Annius said.

"What's up?"

"Little Li Wei was studying with Cicero in Rome recently. The owner asked my second son to play with him when he has time. I will ask him to introduce little Memius to him."

Annius said in a low voice.

Memius' eyes brightened, and then looked at him excitedly.

"Annius, thank you so much."

He knew how precious this opportunity was, which no one could ask for.

"Haha, why are we talking about thanks?"

Annius said with a laugh.

A few days later, Memius returned to his hometown.

Although the drought in the field was more serious, he felt that the sun was so bright.

"Where's Gaius? Why are you the only one coming back?"

asked Fabia.

"It is a good thing that he stayed in Rome for the time being."

Memius said with a smile.

So he told Fabia what happened in Rome.

"This is really great. I didn't expect him to be able to know young master Li Wei. We are really grateful to the Annius family. May God bless them."

Fabia made the sign of the cross devoutly.

"Indeed, he was a good man."

Memius said.

"Can the matter of the Crusade be settled?"

"Annius said it shouldn't be a big problem."

Memius had an unconcealable smile on his face. At this moment, he was extremely eager for the position of centurion, and he would only know how precious it was once he lost it.

"Then let's celebrate, and I'll prepare a big meal for you."

Fabia said.

"Okay, all of this is a gift from the true God."

Memius said very piously.

The crisis at home was completely resolved, and the yard was full of laughter again.

But Memius was not as relaxed as they were. He knew that some people would be very dissatisfied with him, and would stare at him and pursue him fiercely.

He remembered Annius' advice, to be devout, this is the best weapon against doubts from others.

He pondered for a while, and called the two slaves at home.

"Have you been with me for seven or eight years?"

Memius said.

"Yes, nearly seven years," said one of the Gallic slaves.

"It's a good thing I didn't make a mistake."

Memius breathed a sigh of relief, "You are all believers of the true God, and you can be regarded as my church members. If I have wronged you before, please forgive me."

The two slaves looked surprised, what does this mean?

"Master, you are very kind to us, and you have nothing to do with us."

Another slave said quickly.

Of course, this is just a statement against their will. Although the general families in Rome treat their slaves fairly well, they are not very good. They are the first to do the hard work.

Memius waved his hand, telling him to stop talking.

"According to the canon, as long as you have worked in my family for 7 years without making any mistakes, I will give you freedom and give you a certain dinar."

Memius said.

"Is this... is this true?"

The Gallic slave said with a shocked expression that Fabia had enlisted them in order to get two more gifts, but he didn't expect that Memius would give them freedom according to the canon.

"Of course, I am a very devout believer,

I have been strictly following every regulation of the church. "

Memius said.

The two slaves couldn't help but rolled their eyes, "It's no wonder you believe me, you haven't believed in the holy religion for as long as we have.

But they suppressed these thoughts and expressed their gratitude one after another.

"Thank you, honorable master."

"You're the kindest person I've ever met."

"No, you shouldn't thank me. You should thank the true God. Remember, these are the will of the true God. Please remember our slogan, all praises belong to the true God."

Memius said with a serious face.

"All praise be to the true God!"

"All praise be to the true God!"

The two slaves said very piously. At this time, they thanked the holy religion and the true God from the bottom of their hearts.

If it is not for the true God, they cannot be free.

"What happened to make you so happy."

At this time Fabia had already prepared some meals and brought them out.

The two slaves did not dare to speak, they felt that Fabia would not give them freedom easily.

"I decided to give them freedom. According to the canon, we should treat slaves well. As long as they have worked for us for seven years and have not made any serious mistakes, we should give them freedom."

Memius said.

"What did you say?"

Fabia was shocked, and almost spilled the wheat porridge in her hand.

"You're crazy! Why are you doing this!"

Fabia screamed.

"I want to be a devout believer. From now on, our family will strictly abide by the religious rules in every word and deed."

Memius said very seriously.

His eyes were extremely hot, revealing a strong ambition.

"Are you crazy? Even if you become a centurion of the Crusaders, you can't do this? Who do you ask to cultivate so many fields? You will cultivate them?"

Fabia said angrily.

"It's time to buy a few more slaves. The price of slaves is much cheaper now."

Memius said.

"That's how you can't waste money. How many days have you had enough to eat?"

Fabia said.

"Enough! The matter is settled like this! This family has the final say!"

Memius said incomparably domineeringly.

"you!"

Fabia was so angry that she pointed at him and couldn't speak, but there was nothing she could do about him.

In Rome, the man was the head of the family, and the status of women was similar to that in ancient China.

"This family can't survive."

Fabia cursed and walked into the kitchen.

Before the meal, his children screamed and prepared to eat, but they were stopped by Memius.

"Everyone has to say a prayer and thank God for the food before we eat."

Memius said sternly.

Saying that Perfectmius prayed first, the children looked at him with some fear, not understanding how their father became like this.

The two slaves immediately followed and prayed, their hearts were so pious at this moment.

Fabia stared blankly at Memius, in her eyes, his husband was so strange.

"Hurry up, everyone."

Memius opened his eyes and said sternly.

Feibia hurriedly coaxed her child to pray, forget it, I won’t be as knowledgeable as him today,
