A limited-edition Cadillac blue sedan crosses the streets of Brighton and ends up on the silver shore at the mouth of the Charles River, home to a famous cluster of villas, which ends up in the Governor's exclusive holiday home.

Governor Edward of Massachusetts was lying on a beach chair on the shore, watching the sunset over the sea in a daze, when he heard the voice of someone coming, but he didn't turn his head to know who it was: "Lawrence's college scholar, you're finally here." ”

The university scholar in Edward's mouth was Lawrence, the president of Harvard University, and he was accustomed to Edward's greetings, so he just smiled and sat down next to Edward, and took a sip of the coconut on the small table without treating himself as an outsider: "You still like to drink coconut water, but I prefer to eat coconut meat to this juice that is not sweet enough and not light enough." ”

"So that's the difference in philosophy between us, otherwise we wouldn't have to fight every time we meet. Edward said.

"But it's a good thing we don't have all the same ideas, otherwise I wouldn't be here today. Lawrence put down the coconut and lay down on the beach chair, "To be honest, when you called me today, I really didn't expect that someone would want to challenge the Addams family, or try to deceive each other and pull the three of us together." ”

"That's a very bold bad boy!" said Edward, laughing, but then he turned to Lawrence, "but I'm curious how you could be persuaded by him when you know all this?"

Edward's question made Lawrence feel a little embarrassed, but he immediately found a breakthrough, pointed at Edward and said, "Of course, this is all your guy's responsibility, if you weren't deceived by him, why would he come to me?"

In the face of this unreasonable accusation, Edward felt a little helpless, but he didn't explain anything, of course, Lawrence on the other side did not mean to dwell on the end, and soon died down. Edward leaned back in his chair and said, "Judging from the time, Zhou Ming should have arrived in Lowell City, a scholar of the Lawrence family, do you think that Chinese boy can convince that very timid Gallic chicken?"

Lawrence shook his head: "I don't know, but I can know that Louie guy will definitely put on a lavish dinner to entertain me, let me think about it...... There must be his proudest wine and foie gras caviar at this dinner, and then things can get out of the way. ”

"Yes! It's not the first time in 300 years that this has happened. Edward muttered, but at last he suddenly turned to Lawrence and said, "But I have a hunch that that Chinese boy will bring us a miracle." ”

"Yes, it would be a miracle if it were Louie, because if it was just Louie, it would have been easy to solve, but it was a family, and that's why there was that dinner. Lawrence said.

"So the Lawrence family scholars, should we make a bet that it's a hundred dollars?"

Edward said as he pulled out a hundred-dollar bill, which Lawrence smiled at and slapped Edward's outstretched hand away.

......

Returning to the Oban Castle, the Lowell family dinner was underway, Zhou Ming sat in his seat, he listened to Lawrence constantly introduce some ancient French customs, as well as interesting facts about these dishes in the family; on the stage not far away, more than a dozen Lowell family men and women in full costume were dancing happily, and the band next to them was also playing hard.

All this seems to be so harmonious and joyful, but in Zhou Ming's eyes, he always feels very weird.

That's right, this feeling is weird, Zhou Ming doesn't understand the meaning of this dinner, is it just because of enthusiasm? That's a bit too enthusiastic, right?

Zhou Ming didn't know if Lawrence and Edward had called the Lowell family, according to the current situation, they should have called, because if they hadn't called, Louie wouldn't have known that he would come, let alone greet him all the way at the door;

Is he going to fool himself with this dinner party until he leaves?

This idea is ridiculous, but now the current situation seems to be like this, Zhou Ming thought of what Lawrence said to himself last before leaving, he said that the Lowell family is not the same as Kendini and the Lawrence family, and he also said that as long as he can convince the Lowell family, then it is not impossible for them to unite against the Addams family.

It seems that this Lowell family is the key, and since Mr. Louis does not intend to stir up the topic, he can only come on his own.

With this in mind, Zhou Ming interrupted Louie's words and asked him: "Mr. Louie, first of all, I thank you very much for your hospitality, and I have benefited a lot from your profound knowledge, but from these aspects, I think you must have known the news of my coming in advance, right? ”

Originally, Louie planned to toast Zhou Ming again, but after listening to Zhou Ming's words, he put down his glass again, but he did not answer Zhou Ming's question, but asked Zhou Ming rhetorically: "What do you think of the dinner I prepared for you? Is it not luxurious enough? Or are these dishes not to your liking, or is there a problem with music or dance that dissatisfies you?"

Zhou Ming shook his head and said no, Louis continued: "Isn't that it? Since you are all satisfied, then let's continue this grand dinner, and don't let other things affect our beautiful mood." ”

Zhou Ming frowned: Sure enough, this guy didn't plan to talk about business at all?

Seeing Zhou Ming's expression, Louis said again: "Mr. Zhou Ming, look at this luxurious main hall, maybe you don't know that this castle has been erected here for more than 600 years, from the Indian period......

Zhou Ming was not interested in the history of Auburn Castle, and he immediately interrupted Louis's words and said, "Mr. Louie, are you planning to talk about things after the dinner, are you worried that there will be too many people here?"

"It may be so," said Louie, "that we will have dinner today, and then tomorrow I will ask my butler to show you around the city of Lowell, which is not as good as Brighton, but it is a very important historical and cultural city in Massachusetts." ”

"So Mr. Louie, you didn't plan to talk to me about dealing with the Addams family, did you?" Zhou Ming asked.

Faced with Zhou Ming's questioning again, Louis was silent for a while and then said, "I don't understand how the two guys Lawrence and Edward told you, or if they didn't tell you at all, they just used a trick to get you over." ”

Louis paused here and continued: "Do you know? Young Chinese, if I were you, I would be very happy to attend this dinner, and then visit this Lowell City tomorrow, and I will not think about any alliance, what the Addams family is." ”

"So you're not me. Zhou Ming said carefully word by word, making Louis stunned.

"Do you think I'm the spokesperson for the Kendini and Lawrence families? Then you're very wrong, in fact, I am the one who proposed the alliance against the Addams family. Zhou Ming said.

"Looks like you really don't know anything!" Louis shook his head helplessly.

Zhou Ming shrugged his shoulders: "Maybe, I really don't know anything, but I can be clear about one thing, that is, this matter is related to the future rise and fall of the Lowell family, Mr. Yi, do you really want to be ridden by the Addams family all the time, and don't want to take the Lowell family to another new height?"

Louis was stunned, he looked at Zhou Ming stunned as if he was petrified, but just a moment later, Louie laughed again.

Louie's laughter attracted the attention of the others, and Louie stood up and said, "Brothers of the Lowell family, I would like to inform you of one thing here, that is, this Mr. Zhou Ming from China, he said that he has brought us important news related to the future rise and fall of the family, that is, the news that we will be in alliance with the Kendini and the Lawrence family to fight against the Addams family!"

Louie's words were tantamount to dropping a bombshell on the scene, blowing everyone up at once, everyone looked at Zhou Ming in surprise, their eyes were full of disbelief, and the atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing.

In fact, even Zhou Ming didn't expect Louis to tell the news so directly, did he want to fly?

However, after the shock, all the people of the Lowell family at the scene laughed like Louis again, and they laughed and said to Zhou Ming: "You Chinese can really tell jokes! Is this the mysterious humor from the East? If so, then you won, because I was amused by you, this is the funniest joke I have heard this week and this month, but unfortunately today is not April Fool's Day!"

Facing the laughter around him, Zhou Ming's brows furrowed even deeper, he glanced at Louis first, then stood up and said: "I'm not joking, I'm very serious, now I've convinced the Governor Edward of the Kendini family and the Harvard president of the Lawrence family, just the last Lowell family, can form an alliance to deal with the Addams family together!"

Zhou Ming's explanation did not stop the laughter around him, but made the laughter even worse, Zhou Ming looked at Louie, and he just shrugged his shoulders senselessly.

"That's why I said you don't understand anything!" said Louis, "compared to the Kendini family's thirst for power, the Lawrence family wants to take back their own shares of the bank, and we Lowell family don't need anything, although we used to own the Bank of Massachusetts with the Lawrence family, but now we have merged with the Bank of Brighton? ”

With Louie's words, the others followed suit one by one: "Louis is right, we are not the Kendini family or the Lawrence family, we are the Lowell family! We don't want to be a king with a sword, and we don't want to be a copper-smelling Grande, we feel that we are in a good state now, we have a city of our own, we have the wealth of our country, we can squander and enjoy ourselves, why should we fight for power?"

"Did you hear all the friends from China?" Louis asked Zhou Ming, "This is our Lowell family, I can treat you as if you didn't say anything just now." ”

Zhou Ming let out a breath and shook his head and said, "I really didn't expect that the Lowell family is such a group of drunken wastes." ”

Zhou Ming didn't deliberately hide his voice, so Louie heard it, he slapped the table hard, glared at Zhou Ming and asked, "What did you say? Who are you scolding for being a waste?"

Louie's words made the scene explode, and everyone accused Zhou Ming one after another: "What a Chinese who doesn't know what to do, we treat you so warmly, you actually scold! You are raised by a bitch, what qualifications do you have to scold, there is no one here you can scold, I see you are a waste! Apologize, no matter what we do with you in the end, no matter who you are scolding, you must apologize to us!"

As the focus of everyone, Zhou Ming said with a smile: "I'm sorry everyone, I didn't mean to target anyone with that waste just now, I just want to say that everyone who is talking now is waste!"
