Chapter 99: My family has a girl who has just grown up
Charlotte is back the happiest is Lydia, of course she has good news to tell Charlotte,
"Your father has been found not guilty, Windsor has sent someone to pick him up on the island, and he is expected to be back next month!"
After saying that, Charlotte also laughed, it was really a great joy for her mother, and she deliberately pretended to be a pity to be coquettish with her mother.
"Then we won't be able to sleep with our mother again for a few nights."
Lydia pinched Charlotte's little nose,
"Naughty ghost, when your father comes back, someone will cure you!"
Charlotte turned her head away from her mother's clutches and said angrily,
"Hmph, my father won't, he loves me the most!"
Charlotte is not wrong, when she was in the royal capital before, Lucas's favorite daughter was her and not Cinderella, even if she came back this time, she would not change her character, Charlotte had no fear.
It's just that Cinderella heard this and felt a little uncomfortable, she could get along with them in harmony when her father was away, if her father came back, they would become a family again, and would she still stand aside and envy the jealous one? Cinderella was a little apprehensive.
"Mother, are Mary's parents still in the royal capital? Why don't you write to them and ask them to come to the Southlands too, sooner or later the Southlands will be the new royal capital. ”
"The letter has been written a long time ago, and I heard Mary say that her parents also want to move to the Southlands, and now that we have helped, of course they have agreed."
Charlotte cupped Lydia's face and said sweetly,
"They must have missed Mary and can't wait to move in with her, right?"
Lydia looked at Charlotte tenderly, following her daughter's words,
"yes, your mother misses you a few days away, baby."
When Charlotte heard what she wanted to hear, she felt that her life was all over, and she fell comfortably into her mother's arms.
In the afternoon, Mary came home to see Charlotte in surprise and rushed up to kiss her several times, the little yellow dog did not know whether she was jealous or what, and from that day on, she was always very fierce to Charlotte, so that Charlotte and Mary discussed several times to send her away, but that was later, and now they were going to have a candlelight dinner together.
After Windsor's victory, he secretly transported part of the hidden belongings of Fort Ariel to Lydia, which made Lydia breathe a sigh of relief, she finally determined that Windsor was not just talking, he really planned to return the wealth of the Lucas family to them, it was just a small amount of property smuggled out, which had made their lives go to a higher level, it was not much worse than the royal family's food, Charlotte looked at the table full of delicious dishes and was almost drooling, but fortunately she still remembered her cultivation, He swallowed silently and waited for Lydia to give the order.
Charlotte didn't say that Lydia could guess that her daughter must have suffered a lot of grievances outside these days, and when she came back, there was only a skeleton left in her arms, so thin must be caused by irregular life and malnutrition, Lydia, who felt sorry for her daughter, told the servant that today's dinner should be extraordinarily rich, and she would make up for her daughter.
"Let's start eating."
Lydia rolled a noodle and put it in her mouth, and Charlotte's eyes were locked on the roast goose, and she immediately stretched out her fork and forked a piece of charred goose meat and ate it.
A walk after dinner was the most beautiful, Charlotte went out of the yard accompanied by Cinderella and walked on the boulevard near her home, the ginkgo tree bore fruit, and Charlotte looked at the round green eggs above her head and couldn't reach it.
"The next time we meet, I must drag a few for Windsor!"
Cinderella squinted, obviously having something to say, Charlotte turned to look at her, and Cinderella looked up at the ginkgo fruit on the tree,
"Charlotte, you can reach it yourself."
Charlotte's eyes widened,
"You got it?"
Cinderella wondered,
"What? Know what? ”
The sun in the Southland is warm, but Charlotte feels so hot, especially on her face,
"Nothing."
"Let's go home."
A few days after returning home, Charlotte harvested a carrier pigeon on the edge of the windowsill, the gray carrier pigeon stopped by the window, flapping its wings and cooing to attract the attention of the people inside, Charlotte pushed up half of the window, reached out and grabbed it in, there was a paper ball tied to the small brown legs, Charlotte guessed that the person who wrote to her at this time should be Sissy, and opened it to see that it was indeed an address plus Sissy's signing.
Charlotte, who received the address, was in a complicated mood, she didn't want to be a pope in the first place, glory often means responsibility, and now she can't afford this heavy responsibility at all, and her relationship with Windsor will be forced to break because of this, Charlotte is not a pure-hearted person, there is no way to let go of the feelings, but thinking of the first kiss in the garden, thinking of the kiss that Bai Yi dedicated herself to alleviating her pain, she inevitably blamed herself, Bai Yi may lose her protection and be killed by Dika because of this kiss, How could she only care about herself and Windsor and live up to Bai Yi's entrustment?
When love and friendship, happiness and responsibility were weighed together, Charlotte lost sleep that night.
When she got up in the morning, Charlotte saw herself in the mirror, she hadn't looked in the mirror for a long time, and suddenly saw that she was still a little strange, she was indeed strange in the mirror, because of insomnia, the blue eye circles and the faint red blood spots made her bright eyes dim a lot, the original plump and white little face was still so white, but pale, her cheeks were a lot thinner, her chin was pointed, and the whole person looked haggard and mature.
"Miss Charlotte, are you awake?"
Emily called out to her downstairs,
"Alright, I'll go down in a moment."
Slightly covered the black blue of the eye circles with powder, Charlotte didn't want her family to chase after her and ask what made her insomnia, the neatly dressed Charlotte came to the restaurant, Lydia and Mary were already waiting at the table, seeing Charlotte's pale and slender appearance, Lydia felt sad again,
"Come here, sit next to my mother."
Grabbing Charlotte's hand, Lydia rubbed and rubbed it, Charlotte rubbed it with her mother, and couldn't help yawning, Lydia asked worriedly,
"Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Mary also looked at her and interjected,
"Charlotte seems to have a little dark circles under her eyes, is she insomnia?"
Charlotte secretly sweated, but she didn't expect to wipe the powder or not hide Mary's sharp eyes, as soon as Mary said Lydia, she immediately broke Charlotte's head and took a closer look.
"Sure enough, there are dark circles under my eyes, why didn't you sleep last night?"
Seeing that her mother did not suspect that she was insomnia, Charlotte immediately said,
"Oops, I just came home and thought that I hadn't read a book for many days, so I nested by the bookshelf all night."
Lydia wrung her face,
"You are not allowed to be willful at night! Do you know if you go to bed early? Otherwise, I'll let Emily move in and sleep with you. ”
Charlotte pursed her little mouth and said dissatisfied,
"Don't, don't sleep with Emily, she sleeps and snores at night."
Lydia and Mary both laughed, and Emily had just come over with Cinderella behind her, and when she heard Charlotte mention herself, she immediately asked,
"Do you have any orders?"
Mary laughed even harder, pointing at Charlotte to accuse,
"Emily, Charlotte didn't command, haha, she's speaking ill of you."
Emily didn't believe it, so she smiled and went to the kitchen to serve Cinderella and Charlotte breakfast.
Knowing that her parents were coming to the Southland, Mary was much more lively than before, which made Charlotte sigh that no one could replace the position of parents in the hearts of children, and no matter how good others were, they could not give their children's parents a sense of security.
"Mary, you actually learned to sue me?! Look at me if I don't clean you up for a while! ”
Charlotte pretended to be annoyed but actually wanted to tease Mary, Mary was close to her and was not afraid of her at all, and actually made a grimace at her and ate herself, Charlotte had no choice but to stop her.
After the meal, Mary said hello and went out to call friends, Cinderella also met a few new friends, and came to invite her to the house, now only Charlotte and Lydia are left in the house, Emily went to do housework, Lydia took Charlotte to her room,
"Recently, the Duke of Windsor has brought back some of our belongings, and it seems that he is a man of his word and does not intend to embezzle our family property, a rare good man."
Charlottemer, he must have had to hand over such a large sum of money because he was afraid that I would turn against him, but she didn't tell her mother, so let her misunderstand like this,
"yes."
Lydia looked forward to it for a long time, but she didn't expect her daughter to say yes, yes, there was no more.
"Does the Duke of Windsor know about your return?"
Charlotte is upset when she hears Windsor now, she hasn't made a decision about what to do, and now her mother is a mouthful of Windsor that makes Charlotte a little impatient, how could Lydia not see her irritability, after all, she is biological,
"Got into a conflict with that person? No, didn't you just come back, Xiao Beisheng is newly married, how can you have a conflict? Tell your mother what happened? Make my obedient so upset? ”
Charlotte asked, leaning on Lydia's shoulder, in a prolonged tone
"Mother, if there's something you can't escape, what should you do?"
Lydia stroked her daughter's soft blonde hair and felt that it was not enough, her daughter grew up, had her own troubles, and began to face various choices in life, Lydia slapped the loss and pride in her head, and gently instructed her daughter,
"Any difficulty you encounter in the future cannot be evaded by escaping, because there is a time to escape and a next time, and if you don't solve it, it will circulate infinitely in your life, daughter, the brave man God will give him golden fingers."
Charlotte listened to her mother's teachings, although it was not an initiation or enlightenment, but at least she had the courage to solve the problem, hoping that God would give her the almighty golden finger.
"Mother, daughter is going to do a big thing, and if it succeeds, we will live happily ever after."
Charlotte was destined to say this sentence silently in her heart.
