Chapter 82 Welcome to Allen Manor(2/3)
Mike stuck out his tongue, drank the red wine in his hand, and said:
"I like what Master Karen said very much."
Karen smiled at him.
The motorcade left York City and continued toward the suburbs. After passing through a dense forest, the motorcade entered the manor at about one o'clock in the afternoon.
This is a very large manor,
Karen saw the new castle in the manor, the old castle in the distance, and the somewhat dilapidated performance hall.
A red carpet was laid directly from the car door to the stairs. On both sides stood the male servants and the other side the maids.
on the steps,
A well-dressed middle-aged man walked towards Karen. On the steps, there was also an old man with white hair standing on crutches.
The man is Eunice's father, Mrs. Jenny's husband, and the current patriarch of the Allen family - Bede Allen.
On the way over, Bede first gestured to his wife and daughter with his eyes, then faced Karen directly and said respectfully:
"The Allen family welcomes your visit."
The male and female servants on both sides all saluted Karen.
"Thank you for your warm welcome."
"Come, please come with me. I have prepared the most delicious dishes and the most exquisite wines for you."
Mr. Bede led Karen across the red carpet. When he walked up the steps, the old man on the steps put his crutch in front of him and saluted Karen:
"Your arrival is a gift from fate to the Allen family."
Bede introduced: "This is my father."
The old patriarch, Anderson.
"Your kindness makes it difficult for me to calm down." Karen responded.
behind,
Alfred, who was walking here with him, had Pu'er lying on his shoulders and holding a golden retriever in his hand.
Pu'er's eyes had previously been focused on the performance hall, which was built by his family for himself. Nowadays, most of the outer walls are covered with green plants, showing a kind of dilapidation.
Then, Pu'er looked at Bede again;
Well, not bad. He has a very low profile and is the most handsome of the three brothers. No wonder he gave birth to a daughter as beautiful as Eunice.
That is, why does this Bede have an aura similar to that of a radio fairy?
Pu'er certainly doesn't think that his eldest nephew is a strange devil... It's not surprising that he is a strange devil, but he feels that Bede has a temperament similar to Alfred's... oily!
Alfred also whispered at this time: "I'm sure that Mr. Patriarch is also an artist."
Alfred has always considered himself an artist. His specialty is not only being a radio anchor, but he is also good at various musical instruments. If the environment had not allowed for it, he could have captured the hearts of unknown people with his piano notes on the passenger ship.
How many ladies, ladies and gentlemen love you.
Pu'er remembered that when Eunice introduced her father to Karen, she said that her father loved painting...
so,
Pu'er's eyes widened again and he looked at Bede:
So, the contemporary patriarch of the Allen family is really a painting artist?
Alfred followed Karen, and Pu'er also heard the conversation between Karen and the old patriarch Anderson:
"Dis and I have known each other since we were young, and I have been to Luojia City several times."
"Yes, grandpa often talks about you to me. Unfortunately, grandpa has fallen asleep now, and there is probably no chance to wake up."
Oh my God, you brat!
Pu'er wanted to jump directly on Karen's head and mess up his hair completely!
"The fate of the world is always strange, like a rising tide, it rises and falls, but I believe that the Immelais family will regain its glory."
"Due to the blood sacrifice ceremony, the Immelais family and their descendants can no longer enter the church. Grandpa's biggest wish is that his family can live a peaceful and happy life without being involved in these dangerous whirlpools."
Ahhhh, I want to scratch his face with my claws and make him lose his appearance!
Alfred stretched out his hand and held down Pu'er, who was snarling his teeth and claws.
Anderson and Bede also saw the cat with a strong desire to show off. Bede had some doubts in his eyes. He thought the black cat looked familiar.
Anderson asked: "Karen, is this your pet?"
"Yeah, I'm sorry, he's been a little grumpy lately because he's in estrus."
"..."Pu'er.
"Let's go in first. I believe you are already hungry. Haha, the most important thing to pay attention to when visiting a friend's house is that you cannot starve your friend's children."
Anderson reached out and patted Karen's arm cordially, expressing intimacy.
Karen also cooperated and stretched out her hand to support him, replacing his crutches.
Bede looked at his wife and daughter and said, "You go change your clothes first, and then have a meal together. You have to hurry up and don't keep the guests waiting for a long time."
immediately,
Bede looked at Alfred, who in his eyes was the only manservant brought by Karen, his lips were trembling slightly;
People who have the same style and pursuit of life, art, and life can always quickly identify each other. This has nothing to do with identity or status.
"Hello, Mr. Bede, you can call me Alfred."
"Hello, Alfred, please come in and dine with me. I believe you are more than just a footman."
"No, being the young master's servant is my pursuit in life."
"Oh, ordinary male servants don't have such moral integrity."
Pu'er rolled his eyes at Bede: Your prospective son-in-law has already gone in, and you are still here flirting with his manservant?
Idiot, idiot!
During this trip home, the adjectives Pu'er used most often for his descendants were "idiots and idiots" because they could always interpret the meaning of these two words deeply.
…
"I'm sorry, Mr. Cullen, I'm going to take some medicine now. You go to the restaurant first and I'll be right over."
"Okay, your body is important."
Mr. Anderson was helped upstairs by the maid;
Karen, led by several other maids, walked into the restaurant.
The restaurant is large and luxuriously furnished;
After all, no matter how depressed the Allen family is, they are still in a state of power and have not yet sold off their property.
"Please, this is your place."
In front of the long table, the maid arranged for Karen to sit down.
This is the guest's position, with their backs to the restaurant door, while the host's position is usually facing the restaurant door.
Karen sat down;
"Excuse me, would you like a regular soup or drink now?"
"No, thank you."
"OK."
Karen sat upright;
As a man in two lifetimes, this was the first time he had been to such an occasion. It was no better than the big dining table in the Immelais family. Everyone was eating and chatting in an uninhibited manner. The environment and scenes in front of him had only appeared in British dramas in his previous life.
.
At this time,
Karen found a bell on the table in front of him.
This reminded him of the bell he installed at the entrance to the kitchen on the second floor of Immelais' house. Every time he rang it, his family would immediately come to the dining room on the second floor to wait for the meal.
Uncle, aunt and others should be doing fine.
The feeling of longing creeped into Karen's heart unconsciously, and he subconsciously reached out and gently touched the silver bell in front of him.
"Dingling bell..."
A clear voice came out;
But then, the surroundings of this large restaurant were all lit up with candles. Pictures of the patriarchs of the Allen family that had not appeared before but suddenly became extremely clear were revealed, and the entire restaurant became extremely clear in an instant.
Solemn.
at the same time,
To be continued...
