Hannah is a typical German woman who is somewhat serious, but full of love.

She is always a light and elegant look, and her makeup is delicate and decent at all times.

She never laughed or cried in front of outsiders, even at the funeral of Jonas's grandfather, who died unexpectedly, she was able to exercise restraint.

However, don't think that she's cold and doesn't care about anything.

In fact, she attaches great importance to the concept of family. As long as she can, she will always do her own housework and cook by herself. When she sees the children finish their own meals, she always smiles at her best.

It was only because he was old now, and Yannick was often absent from the country, that he hired a gardener, a handyman servant.

Hearing Jonas say this, she glanced at Jonas in some surprise and met Zhou Lei's resolute eyes.

With a slight smile, she grabbed Jonas by the arm and walked out. "Good, that's what I expected to see Jonas. ”

Zhou Lei thought that he had not inherited Jonas's feelings, but when facing Hannah, his heart was full of tenderness.

In this family, he was raised by Hannah since he was a child, and of course he was closest to Hannah.

This feeling made Zhou Lei a little unaccustomed, and he hadn't had such mood swings for many years.

However, in his previous life, he talked about people and talked about ghosts, and it was not difficult for him to maintain Jonas's original character in front of Hannah.

He was even more fortunate that Jonas was not only a native speaker of German, French and Italian, but also fluent in English and Spanish.

Coupled with Zhou Lei's Chinese, this is equivalent to saying that he has almost no communication barriers in this world.

Helping Hannah up the stairs from the pantry to the living room on the second floor, the two of them did not stop, and entered a small living room at the back, only to see the kitchen and two dining rooms.

It is a 50-year-old ancestral home, built after the First World War.

The house is located on a hill on the shores of Lake Lucerne in Meghan and is separated by a railway on one side, a small area of only four families.

The Hoffmann family covers an area of more than 15,000 square meters, and in addition to occupying a hill, there is also a pasture, and its own vegetable garden and vineyard.

The structure of the main house is wooden, and each floor is about 400 square meters, with a total of three floors and an L-shape.

The first floor is the storage room and garage, the second floor is the living room, the one on the southeast corner of L, and Hannah's bedroom and study.

Whether it is the living room or the dining room, there are two, the big one is used when there are many people, and the small one is used when there are few people.

Jonas lives on the third floor, he has his own bedroom, his own study, and now that his uncles have moved out, he has his own living room, piano room, and sports room.

"Grandma, where did Dad go?"

This year's Christmas, the Hoffmann family was all together, but early this morning, the two uncles left Switzerland with their families for a holiday in Spain.

Jonas and Hannah were supposed to go too, but because Jonas was angry that they were joking about his feelings and had a falling out with a few relatives, they canceled the New Year's trip.

"Leave him alone, for him, career is always more important than family. You don't want to learn from him in the future. Sit down, I'll serve the food. ”

"I'll help you ......"

In the past, Jonas might have used to sitting at the table like a great old man, waiting for his grandmother, who was over sixty years old. But now Jonas will have a sense of guilt......

As there were only two people, today's dinner was very simple. Just a cheese fondue, and a couple of freshly baked croissants.

In his previous life, Zhou Lei couldn't stand the Swiss cheese fondue, they melted the cheese in the hot pot, and then used the high temperature of the cheese to cook meat or vegetables.

The taste of cheese is already very strong, and when I cook other dishes, the taste is indescribably strange.

But now, after a few bites, he found that the taste was not unacceptable. It seems that his taste buds are now accustomed to this taste.

As for Hannah's baked croissants, Zhou Lei can say without praise that this is the best bread he has ever tasted.

"What are you looking at?" Hannah looked at Jonas with some confusion, where there was nothing but a mirror.

"Nothing, grandma. Jonas withdrew his gaze, and suddenly he was a different person, even though he knew what he looked like, but he still couldn't help but want to take a closer look.

Hannah, who was old and didn't eat much, put down her fork and wiped her mouth and watched Jonas eat. "The planned trip to Spain has been cancelled and you should replan your vacation. ”

Jonas thought for a moment and said, "I originally planned to go to Spain to do market price research and complete my homework. I'll call Kostler tomorrow morning and hopefully finish the market research with him. ”

"I think it's a good idea to call tonight, and at all times, we should have a plan for our lives. ”

"As you wish. ”

Hannah smiled and said, "I've been on the phone with Mrs. Rosengart this afternoon, and they'll be delivering an invitation to the family New Year's ball tomorrow morning." You haven't made your dress for this year yet, and tomorrow morning, I'll have a designer from Faith Shessen to measure your size. ”

Jonas thought for a moment, remembering that this Faith Shessen was Zegna's designer. When he first arrived, Jonas didn't want to arouse any suspicion, although he didn't know whether he was Zhou Lei or Jonas now.

But in this way, he will only be Jonas in the future.

"Tomorrow morning...... Good. However, there are only four days left, and I am afraid that it is too late to sew the new dress. ”

"So I asked him to send a ready-to-wear first, anyway, he is familiar with your temperament, even if it is ready-to-wear, it should be able to match your style. ”

Jonas thought for a moment and asked, "Grandma, what are your plans for your vacation......?

Hannah shook her head and smiled, "For me, it's the same everywhere, as long as I'm around you." ”

Both Zhou Lei and Jonas know very well that the kind of indifference between European and American society and family relations, and the atmosphere of children not relying on their parents when they grow up, is only popular between Britain and the United States.

In most countries in Europe, as in the East, family ties are highly valued, if not surpassed.

Whether it's Germany, France, Italy, or Spain, it's not uncommon for parents and children to live together. In Spain and Italy, many families live together as a large family of a few dozen people.

Jonas nodded, took the last bite of bread, and swallowed the last bit of food. Then he picked up the mouthwash and wiped his mouth after rinsing his mouth. "I was full and today's dinner was delicious. ”

Hannah looked at the empty basket of bread, stood up and smiled, "The food you have eaten has proven your level of satisfaction." You can go pour an after-dinner wine and then call Joseph and Dinah, I've cleaned the dishes and have something to talk to you about. ”

"Okay, but I don't want to drink today, I need a clear brain. ”

Hannah gathered up the dishes, and Jonas went to the small living room, where he stood in front of the window and looked at the outside world.

There is no snow in the courtyard, but through the moonlight, you can see that there are still traces of snow on the mountains in the distance.

It's 82 years of time and space, Jonas reminded himself.

He knew what Hannah wanted to say to him, because this relationship had too much impact on his life. In the past few months, he has changed so much that Hannah is a little worried.

In fact, Hannah's worries were not wrong, if it weren't for his soul piercing Jonas, this guy who didn't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings would probably have been finished.

Jonas is more sure that the changes in the first few months are not too big, and the changes will be even greater in the future, after all, he has now changed the core.

However, because of this turmoil, because he is only seventeen years old, there are some changes in his personality now, and he will not arouse the suspicion of his family at all.

Hannah was already so shrewd, and in his memory, Yannick was the real cunning. He even always called his father the Demon King, of course, this is only in front of his two good friends.

Like every young man, Jonas had two good friends, the man named Kostler and the woman Dinah. They grew up together, went to primary school together, and went to Ross College together.

A family that can afford $30,000 a year in tuition is certainly not ordinary, and even a middle-class person cannot afford such a large expense.

In Jonas's memory, the average annual salary of Americans this year was just $10,000 when they did market research.

Of course, this is $10,000 in '82, which is not less.

But the tuition fee of Ross College alone is 30,000 US dollars, not including the cost of sports equipment and some additional activity expenses.

Hannah poured herself a glass of low wine, sat down on the couch behind Jonas, and whispered, "Contemplation is a sign of a man's maturity, but you are not yet eighteen years old, and I would prefer to see you laugh and cry loudly." ”

"No, Grandma, I've grown up. ”

Hannah nodded and said, "Okay, so now, let's have an adult conversation." ”

Jonas sat across from Hannah, nodded and said, "I'm honored that you're treating me with a new mindset." ”

"I've talked to your dad and mom about your college choice. But unfortunately, the three of us did not agree. Your dad wants you to go to university in the UK, or the US, and let you study finance. I would also like you to study finance, but I think the Faculty of Economics at the University of Zurich is more in line with our Swiss situation.

As for your mother, she still can't be trusted, and she doesn't even think it matters if you don't go to college...... Well, her opinion can be ignored, I want to ask for your opinion now, and this matter cannot be delayed any longer, and by the end of February at the latest, you will be applying for fall admission. ”

Jonas's brow furrowed. He was a good student when he was in school, and he studied international trade at university.

However, that is almost twenty years of "history". Now, although he has inherited Jonas's memories and feelings, he really doesn't have any plans for what to study in college.

Jonas didn't want to escape, though. In my previous life, I worked hard in society for so many years, and I also wanted to take a good break for a few years.

This Jonas has a wealthy family, no life pressure, and he has not had fun for a few years, and he is a little sorry for himself.

"Grandma, I don't think there's anything to think about. I don't want to go too far away from you, the University of Zurich is a good choice. ”
