13 Mingke Street
Dis deliberately changed into formal attire today, because it was his grandson's special day. Although it was not a wedding or engagement, both of these events were just formalities after all the arrangements were made.Today, was the arrangement.He tried his best to appear amiable, and he did try to do so. So, he took the initiative to greet:Hello.As for what Lady Jenny would do next, whether she would directly kneel down and return the greeting with formal language, that was her own choice. But this choice was not surprising.In the current atmosphere,Those sitting on chairs, on shoulders, and on the ground, all felt it was only natural.Because,In this study, it was not a family circle, nor a social circle, but... a church circle.Under the rules of this circle,
The person sitting should remain seated; the person kneeling should remain kneeling.Puer was still sizing up the woman in front of him, who was once, once, once... well, she was the niece-in-law of his niece "Zeng Jianyi".Looks, it's okay.But strictly speaking, she is not a person in the church circle, although she must know what's going on in the church circle.In order to show the dignity of the ancestors, Puer also took the time to tidy up his hair in the bathroom after Karen left to pick someone up;But now, it suddenly feels all dull and tasteless.If before, it instinctively considered things from the perspective of the spiritual symbol family, now, it suddenly felt a little angry.After all, apart from blood relations, it has lived in the Inmores family for much longer than in the family;And even if it's about blood relations... I'm a cat now, where does blood relation come from?"Alan" family, did they send you?
How do you maintain the relationship between the Inmores family that I personally created? Send a daughter-in-law over, haha, no wonder our family is now mingling with the Queen's family for afternoon tea. They are really a group of people who are becoming more and more ignorant! Puer is very angry, wishing to go down and scratch this niece-in-law with its claws; but at the same time, it feels boring. If it were her husband or father-in-law kneeling here, it might not be able to resist going up and making both of their faces red. A group of foolish herring who look down on others! In fact, Puer may not even realize that a large part of its anger comes from its identification with the Inmores family. After all, it watched Dias grow up, as well as Karen's father and Mason Winnie. The previous Karen was also watched by it, although she was replaced a few months ago.
Therefore, Pu'er is more like the "patriarch" of this family.Looking down on Inmoleis is the same as looking down on me, Poer Allen!But most importantly,The last time the "Allen" family came to Luo Jia City to visit in person, it was the next young family head who came in person, while at that time, the Inmoleis family had three judges of the Order of the Gods.But now,With the decline of Dis, so many years have passed,This time,You sent this?Herring, herring, a group of foolish herring, do you really see the Inmoleis family as a declining small family of the Order of the Gods?Do you know how powerful Dis really is!
Do you know,The next generation of the Inmores family,The young man named "Karen", what is his identity after all!Perhaps,He may not bring you happiness and beauty,But in the near future, he may personally bring you disaster!"Today is a happy day." Dis said, "for two children."Mrs. Jenny immediately agreed, "Yes, you are right.""When I was writing the letter, I thought it was at least Jonathan who came over.""Please forgive me, my husband is temporarily unable to leave because of some family matters, and I happen to be in Logia because of my mother's affairs, so I entrusted it to me. After all, Eunice is also by my side."
"However, my husband and father-in-law have both sent telegrams last night, and I also spoke to them on the phone.They instructed me to treat you with the utmost respect and sincerity, and they will also be leaving from Vienna to come to Rulan and join us.""Tell them not to come.""Yes, I understand." Mrs. Jenny complied without hesitation.Diss picked up his teacup, took a sip, turned his head slightly, glanced at the Pu'er tea, and slowly said, "I have known for a long time that the 'Allen family' is a family that knows how to steer with the wind."
The Pu'er tea squatting on the shoulder not only wasn't angry, but instead nodded.Mrs. Jenny, who was kneeling in front, immediately said:"Please don't think like that, the Allen family's respect for Inmoleis has never changed.""If possible, I wouldn't choose to let my grandson marry a girl from the Allen family." Dis paused for a moment, "Because you don't deserve it."The Pu'er on the shoulder meowed in response:"Meow!"..."Woof!""It's so cute." Eunice said as she looked at the golden retriever under her.After Mr. Hofin passed away, this big golden retriever naturally gained permanent residency in the Inmoleis family.
"Yeah, it's very cute." Karen handed a piece of sliced sausage on a plate to Eunice, "You can feed it some food and give it some commands.""Really?" Eunice took the plate, "I'll try.""Sit."The golden retriever sat down."Shake hands."The golden retriever lifted its paw."Switch to the other paw."The golden retriever lifted its other paw.Eunice gave it two pieces of sausage and the golden retriever happily ate them, sticking out its tongue and showing a warm smile."It's really smart." Eunice said to Karen.
"Our black cat at home is even smarter. When you feed it, it can do arithmetic problems in front of you.""Really?" Eunice couldn't believe it."Simple addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It can tell you the answer by the number of times it meows.""That's amazing.""That's why I cook special meals for it. Oh, where is it now? When it appears, you can give it some fish snacks and let it perform for you.""Okay, I'm looking forward to it."Eunice looked up and said, "My mother was very nervous when she came. It seems like she's even more nervous than me. Since last night when she saw the bookmark you gave me to pass on, she's been acting a little... different.But I told her that your grandfather is a very easy-going person. After all, how could a grandfather who is willing to take his grandchildren to catch loaches in the pond be scary?""Yes, you're right. I believe they are sitting face to face now, drinking tea and having a good chat.""Right."
"By the way, Eunice, do you have any pets at home?""No, I used to want to have a cat, but my father told me it's not allowed. I even begged my grandfather, but he also said no.""Oh, why?""Because cats have a different status in my family. We have many cat statues and old cat paintings, which are related to a distant great-aunt. Having a cat in our house would be disrespectful to our ancestors.""Oh, I see. Sometimes it's nice to have some small animals as pets. They can relieve stress and you can talk to them.""For example, I love playing with my black cat at home. It's funny to see it pout in anger.""And the scene of her eating squirrel fish while drinking coffee, she thinks it's elegant, but it's actually too silly to describe.""Yes, but I also have eight well-behaved horses in the stable. I love taking them for a walk by the river at dusk.""That must be a beautiful sight.""Well, that's what pets in a wealthy family are like."
"Yes, because the land is not allowed to be developed, it is well preserved and has beautiful scenery.""No, I'm talking about people." Karen looked at Eunice, "I can imagine that scene, you wearing riding clothes.""Karen, there's something I've been wanting to ask you, you can choose to deceive me.""Oh?" Karen smiled, "Go ahead and ask."Eunice extended a finger and gently placed it in front of Karen:"In the past, have you really never been in love?""No."This was not a lie, in two lifetimes, he really had never been in love. In the previous lifetime, he was too busy with his career and never had time for such things. Although there were a few ambiguous relationships, they all ended due to work reasons.In this lifetime, it seemed like he was trying to make up for it, so he arranged for himself a sinful, feudal, backward, and immoral... arranged marriage.Eunice blinked and asked, "Really?"
"But why do I always feel like you understand me?" Karen opened her mouth and took Eunice's finger in front of her."Hmm..." Eunice let out a soft moan and subconsciously tried to pull her finger back, but Karen grabbed her wrist.After a while, Karen opened her mouth and let her take her finger back."When encountering someone of the opposite s*x that we like, if we don't know how to pursue them, then humans would have gone extinct a long time ago, wouldn't they? It's instinctual." Eunice pouted.
Karen thought, "The women in the 'Allen' family all look cute when they make this movement, maybe it's just genetic.Reaching out, she hugged her shoulder and gave her a little push back, causing Eunice's body to lose balance and lean back on Karen's shoulder under the "strong pressure".Anyway, there are only five people in the house;Two are "friendly negotiations" on the third floor,One is watching the gate on the first floor,The second floor is just the two of them, not afraid of being disturbed."Will you come back to Wayne with me?" Eunice asked."I will."
Dis has already arranged everything to this point, he has no other choice, even the two demons under his command are already preparing to pack their bags and handle the industry.In fact, Dis had asked himself before, do I want to live a plain life at the Inmoleis funeral home for the rest of my life?After experiencing that night, Karen chose to refuse without hesitation.If I hadn't seen it, I could choose to live peacefully, but I have seen it."Then we can ride horses together by the river at dusk." Eunice lightly twirled her fingers around her hair, "I think this scene is very nice.""Yes, I think so too."Eunice raised her head slightly and looked at Karen, asking:"Karen, don't you feel aggrieved?"..."No, I don't feel aggrieved at all."
"You are absolutely right, very right.I will convey everything you said to my husband and father-in-law without missing a word. In fact, they have already realized it when I told them about the bookmark you gave me.They regret it deeply and are extremely fearful.""Are you not happy?" Dis asked."I am happy, very happy, but the more happy I am, the more fearful I am.""Is the name written yet?" Dis asked."This is a matter of great importance, so we still need to discuss it at home...""Bring it here." Dis said.Lady Janet nodded and took out an exquisite jewelry box. She opened it and held up the purple bookmark with both hands, then slowly stood up and placed it on Dis's desk.Puer jumped off the desk and looked at the name on the bookmark:
Raphael!A familiar name, as if I've heard it before.Hm?Isn't this a small family that used to be affiliated with my own family?Why would it be written here?Pu'er looked at Lady Janine, who had knelt down again, with disbelief.Has my family fallen to such a state, where our former subordinate family has become the biggest threat to us?To the point of writing the name of the "Raphael" family on this bookmark?My goodness,What kind of useless descendants must the "Allen" family be, to have managed it to this point!
"Is it true that the worse you do, the more you like to look down on others?Dis tapped his finger lightly on the bookmark in front of him.The bookmark lit up with a purple flame and then turned into a puff of green smoke."Does the Allen family still have the ability to construct the coordinates of the formation?" Dis asked."Well... I'm not sure," Lady Jenny said, looking confused. "The only remaining coordinates of the formation in our family are in my father-in-law's study, but since I married into the Allen family, I have never seen it activated."Puer Cat slapped himself in the face;The coordinates of the formation need to be maintained at least once a month, and some large families and churches even have dedicated caretakers guarding them day and night, because even the slightest problem can lead to terrible consequences.For example, when you teleport, you might lose an arm, a leg, or even your head.Since it has been sealed all this time... it must have been abandoned."I understand," Dis said.
"I will go back and ask my father-in-law, he will reply immediately.""No need, I will use the coordinates of the Order of the York City when the time comes.""Is that so..."Lady Jenny spoke again:"Last night on the phone, my father-in-law reminded me earnestly to pass on this message to you. Although the Allen family has declined, our network of relationships still exists and it is no problem to protect someone. Our Allen family will do everything to protect this young man named Inmores.""Please also pass on a message for me.""Please speak." Lady Jenny said respectfully."After Karen goes to Vienna, you need to protect him."
"We will, this is the promise of the Allen family. He will become a part of our family and we will treat him as our most precious family member. He will also be Unis's husband.""Do not interrupt me.""Yes, please forgive me.""After a period of protection, you can choose to dissolve the marriage contract with him; you can help him find a place to settle, give him some money, and help him open a shop, like a funeral home here.You can do whatever you want, but please do it openly.My grandson, he is very strong.He is good at everything, but he can't stand being wronged.""Please rest assured, such a thing will not happen. He will be a symbol of the friendship between the Allen family and the Inmerleis family, and he will surely have children with Unis, the joint offspring of the two families.My father-in-law promised,
"He and Eunice's future children, regardless of gender, will be the next head of the family after my husband," said Di with a smile on his lips. Lady Jenny noticed the change in the expression of this terrifying old man and breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, today she shouldn't be in this study; it should be her husband or her father-in-law; of course, even if it were them, they should be kneeling now. "You may rise," said Di. "Yes." Lady Jenny stood up and stood respectfully. "You may leave and have dinner with the children, I will not join."
"Yes, everything will follow your will."Mrs. Janine opened the study door, then turned around and gently closed it as she backed away.Afterwards,She took a deep breath,And touched her chest,Underneath her evening gown, it was already damp with sweat.As she helped herself down the stairs, she kept repeating in her mind:"With such a great presence like you, how could the Allen family dare to disrespect that young man."..."I feel like the people in my family will definitely make foolish mistakes in the future."
Pu'er stood on Dis's desk, pacing back and forth like a cat as he said, "It has been proven that whenever the Allen family has a chance to do something foolish, no matter how small that chance may be, they will definitely seize it!" Dis remained silent. "Dis, why don't you switch to a different family? I'm not saying this from the perspective of an Allen family member, but from the perspective of the Inmoleis family." "Their power may be declining, but their network of relationships runs deep. In York City, there is no better option than the Allen family," Dis replied. "Besides, you can also go back home with Karen." "But what if they do something foolish in the end? As long as you're around, they won't dare, but once you're gone, the more favors you have given them, the more fearful they will become. They may even see Karen as a thorn in their side, an unsafe presence within the Allen family. In the beginning, they may treat Karen with kindness, but eventually, their faces will turn sour. Dis, I don't want Karen to experience that kind of situation. I believe you don't want that either. But that's just human nature."
"Not every family can have such good upbringing like the Inmoleis family!" Di Si glanced at Pu'er and said calmly, "It doesn't matter." "Doesn't matter? What do you mean it doesn't matter! Didn't you say your grandson, didn't you say Karen can't stand being wronged?" "My grandson is not a chick under my protection; he is a falcon. It is I who have been holding him back with a rope around his neck, preventing him from flying freely. The Allen family can let Karen suffer, anyway..."
"The consequences will be borne by the Allen family themselves."
