Chapter 31 Good Girl
When she got off work, snowflakes fell from the sky, and Jonas drove to Zurich Latini to start her studies in Switzerland. Although she had good grades in the entrance examination because she had finished the middle school in the UAE, she still encountered difficulties in the actual class.
First of all, the teacher was not her former personal teacher, or even her native English teacher, but a Frenchman. The French are born with big tongues, and when speaking English, Latini almost couldn't understand them. There were also the students in the school. After two days of class, she only spoke to one girl.
However, she seemed to deserve to be rejected. Because she ignored her male classmates, she ignored her male teacher even on the first day of class. Everyone thought she was mute. The last girl who spoke was picking up her book when she finished school, and she said thank you.
Yonas remembers that Arab girls should not seem to be such extreme. It seems that in his previous life, I have seen Arab girls wearing swimsuits and bask in the sun on the beach. There are also Islamic people in Lebanon. The beauty pageants there are in full swing, and Lebanese beauties are very famous in the world.
After staying at Latini's house for three days, Yonas learned a lot about Latini's situation. Although she had a tutor since she was a child and later went to girls' school. When her brother received training in European education, her studies were even better than her two brothers, but this could only prove her IQ, not emotional intelligence. Yonas didn't want her to become a European, but she didn't want her to be completely conservative, which made her future socializing difficulties.
But Jonas is definitely going to have many social people. Will he always attend alone in the future? So he has to have a good talk with Latini and take her to his house for the weekend. He also has to volunteer at Mount Rigi. The time will only get busier and busier in the future, so it is better to settle the accounts as soon as possible.
When Jonas arrived at her house, she was just picked up by the driver. When he saw Jonas, he came happily to meet him. Jonas smiled at her and greeted Ratini's eldest brother Hamad. Hamad also came back from school, but he had planned to go to Italy with his classmates for a weekend. The cold weather is indeed a little hard for those who have not experienced the winter. Even Mohammed has already brought his third wife back to the UAE and will come back after the weekend.
Everyone was busy and didn't say much nonsense. Latini took the LV suitcase that had already been packed, and followed Jonas into the car. Hamad solved the big problem and explained some trivial matters to the servants. He couldn't wait to board the train to Geneva, where some classmates had already prepared the car. They would drive through most of Italy, and the beauties of Naples were already waiting for them.
On the way, Jonas talked to Latini for a long time and asked her to communicate with her classmates more. Latini always said one thing, female classmates can, but males can't. When she was anxious, Latini said with red eyes and said, "If my father knows, he will not let me go to school, he will beat me to death."
Jonas said only, "Okay, I'll convince your father first."
Latini stayed at Jonas's house for one night and immediately completely conquered Hannah and Cecia. It was not because Latini's barbecue was very fragrant, nor because of Latini's beauty, but because of Latini's natural tenderness. Neither Hannah nor Cecia seemed to have thought that a woman could obey another person without self-obeying.
Latini obeyed Jonas and obeyed Hannah and Cecia, and a little response, she could get her sincere sweet smile that was satisfied. Perhaps it was because she deliberately pleased her, but that kind of sweet smile could not be hidden from others.
Facing such a girl who was less than sixteen years old, she actually pleased them so much. Although Hannah and Cecia couldn't figure it out, they were moved and deliberately held her to chat and prevented her from doing anything anymore. In their eyes, this was still a child.
Hannah can't speak English and can understand a little. Latini's German is very messy, but the combination of two languages can also speak the same meaning, not to mention that there is a Cecia who can teach several languages. Hannah slowed down and asked, "Can't the girls in your place contact men?"
Latini said: "Because my grandfather is the leader of the tribe, our tutoring is stricter. Except for relatives, Yonas is the first man I know."
Hannah asked again: "If you don't find a few more boyfriends, how can you make sure that Jonas is the partner you are going to get married?" This question was also what Cecia wanted to ask, staring at her and wanting to know the answer.
Latini was about to be embarrassed, but said, "I like Jonas when I saw him."
Cecia asked, "Are you afraid of marrying Jonas in the future, will you regret it?"
Latini asked strangely: "Why do you regret it? I like Jonas, Jonas also likes me. This is the love I dream of. Many of my relatives, even the other party, have married." She thought to herself that if it were not for Uncle Khalifa's stop, she would have experienced such a thing. Although she had seen the head of Castan, she was not the one she liked. Now this is what she wanted. She thought about it and did not tell the matter with Castan, for fear that the other party would despise her having had an engagement before.
Cecia smiled and said, "Then you are not afraid. What should you do if two people are not suitable after marriage?"
Latini said seriously: "I have sworn before Allah, and Jonas will be my god from now on, and I will always be loyal to him, and I will not betray him unless I die."
Cecia felt that Latini was a elm-head and couldn't explain it. Hannah didn't understand, so Cecia translated it for her and asked again, "What if Jonas doesn't like you?"
Latini burst into tears when she heard this, and she said firmly: "I am still loyal to him."
"What if he likes other women?"
Latini said, "Then I'll prepare for his wedding."
Cecia was stunned, and Hannah was stunned. They didn't expect that it would be the answer. Hannah asked, "Are you willing to leave Jonath?"
"Why leave? I won't leave him."
The two women felt that their heads were not enough again. Hannah said, "But is Jonas going to marry another woman?"
"I can take good care of my family and will not make things difficult for Jonas. My mom married three more wives to my dad. Our family was very happy."
Then they realized that they could only marry one, and four wives. Cecia smiled and said, "Latini, Jonas is a Catholic, and can only marry one wife. If he marry another wife, he will divorce you."
Latini's tears flowed, "No, you can't do this. I'll die like this." She started crying in a low voice. The two gossip women in panic hurriedly coaxed her, saying that it was a joke. Latini sobbed and said, "Although the civilian women in our country are no longer afraid of divorce and even like their husbands to divorce, my family would think it was a shame if they knew that I was abandoned by their husbands."
"Will they want you?" Latini did not answer, but showed a look of fear. The two women knew that they were scaring the little girl, and quickly changed the subject. "What is the situation when you say that the civilian women in your place like divorce?"
Latini said: "Because the women in our country are all supported by the government. If the husband divorces, he has to share half of the property to the woman. If she divorces, she will have rich property. So men often don't want to divorce, they just want to marry more wives."
Hanna comforted her and said, "Don't be afraid, Latini, you are so obedient, Jonas will not abandon you."
Latini nodded and said, "Don't worry, when I get married, I will respect you as much as my grandmother and mother. I will have a maid when I get married. From now on, we will do everything in the family and will not let you work hard."
Cecia hugged her and said with distress: "Latini, remember. This is not your world anymore. In our place, men and women are equal. You don't need to do everything yourself. Your task now is to study hard and find what you want to do. You don't like to do housework, you can ask workers to do it, you only need to do what you like."
Latini smiled sweetly as she listened to her words. If this was the case, how wonderful it would be.
Yankel and Yonas walked in from outside the house in the snow and stood at the door and slapped the snowflakes on their bodies. Yankel said, "Pour two glasses of whiskey, it's too cold outside, so you have to drink some wine to warm up your body."
When Cecia went to get the wine, Hannah and Latini met their men, helped them take off their thick coats and hung them on the clothes hanger at the door. Latini learned Hannah's actions and helped Yonath take off the coat and wipe off the snow on the surface with a rag. She felt very happy.
Hannah asked, “Did you have a good life?”
"It's very smooth. It's a strong stallion. It's a bit cold today. However, I didn't dare to turn on the heating system, so I can't let it spoil. Tomorrow you make a piece of cloth and put it on, it will be useful at least."
Latini asked Yonas shyly: "Jonas, did you give birth to a stallion?"
Jonas laughed and said, "Yes, Grandpa has said that this horse belongs to you, and you can feed it tomorrow."
Latini nodded happily. "I will take good care of it." She turned to look at Yankel, and finally said the first thing she said to Yankel. "Thank you... Grandpa."
Yankel was stunned for a moment and laughed happily.
Cecia poured two glasses of wine and said deliberately in English: "Jonas, from now on, you must treat Latini well, she is a good girl." Latini's big eyes laughed into a line.
