This Christmas, there was no snow in Germany, but the weather was still cold.

The temperature in Wolfsburg has been around -10 degrees Celsius in recent days, with highs around freezing.

After dinner, the whole family gathered together in the warm living room on the second floor, where the wood in the fireplace was burning.

Audrey played several tunes in a row, and everyone was chatting or dancing together.

Jean Nord and Yannick have always gotten along well in the past, and gradually developed into a pair of good friends. Looking at the two of them dancing behind the backs of others, you know that they don't have any good topics.

In three months, Zhou Nan will also record a violin record, and at the urging of Caroline's mother, Zhou Nan also took out the violin and collaborated with Audrey's piano to play two concertos.

In fact, Zhou Nan's limbs are super long, which is different from ordinary people, and his hands have unique conditions for playing the piano.

It is a pity that playing the piano requires a long period of exercise, and the skill required is also unmatched by any other instrument.

The precise scale performance of the piano is a little rusty, and the performance is not good, and anyone can easily hear it.

So Zhou Nan didn't feel ashamed of himself, so he simply didn't practice.

After half past ten in the evening, Caroline went to rest with the woman and the children, and the living room was quiet.

Zhou Nan chatted with Yannick, Jean Nord, and Manfred about the ups and downs of the year, and Leon listened as if he didn't understand.

In the master bedroom on the third floor, little Erwin was left on Zhou Nan's bed, and several women looked at Zhou Nan's script for the Roman holiday, envying Audrey for being able to act in movies again.

After a general look at the script, Caroline looked at Audrey's somewhat melancholy expression and misunderstood the meaning.

She stood up and said to Audrey, "Audrey, come, I have something I want to ask you?" ”

The bedroom was so big that they didn't have to go out at all, they just stood at the window.

Audrey didn't know what Caroline suddenly wanted to ask, and was speculating, but heard Caroline ask, "Tell me, is Jonas empathetic?" ”

Audrey's eyes widened suddenly, a little unbelievably caroline's meaning. Although Jonas has been very busy lately and has neglected her a little, she is also busy speculating about the role of the movie and practicing the piano, so she doesn't think Jonas has changed recently.

Seeing Audrey's expression, Caroline asked in a low voice, "I just read that script, it was written by Jonas for that English princess, right?" Is there a relationship between them that they shouldn't have? ”

Audrey's melancholy today is because tomorrow she will see her father, whom she hasn't seen for more than ten years, so she has some gains and losses. Hearing Caroline's question, she wanted to explain, but suddenly, a window seemed to open suddenly, and the relationship between Marita and Jonas suddenly became clear in her mind.

Why did Marita come to Switzerland to spend the Spring Festival with them for two consecutive years? Why did she insist on the same gift as herself? Also, why should she be so nice to herself? Even better than to those young ladies of the duke's house!

The communication between Zhou Nan and Marita in the past seemed to be presented in her mind like a movie picture, and she realized with some hindsight that Marita had long been in love with Jonas.

Thinking of this, her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by a big hand, and she was in pain.

She couldn't seem to breathe, and her mind went blank. Looking at Caroline's sympathetic eyes, she wanted to speak, but she couldn't say anything, but tears flowed down her eyes at once.

Caroline saw that her face suddenly turned pale, and her originally red little face suddenly lost its blood, and she held her in her arms with some distress. "Don't worry, Mom will make the decision for you......"

Audrey's pain was only for a moment, she was not a stupid person, but in the past, her whole body and mind were on Zhou Nan's body, and she never doubted Zhou Nan's feelings, nor did she think about this matter.

But as they reminisce about what happened between them and Marita, she soon realizes that she is a little concerned and confused.

Although Marita may have a little hazy feelings for Jonas, they did not cross the line and stuck to their principles well.

Marita wanted to see Jonas more, so she created many opportunities to meet despite being a princess, but she never showed her feelings.

And Jonas held on to his feelings, and in the face of Marita, the princess, he never had any other thoughts, and still loved himself as always.

Marita is a princess, and her love, her marriage, is not a matter of one person.

There was an unbridgeable gulf between her and Jonas, so they never had a moment to indulge themselves.

The script of "Roman Holiday" is not so much an illusory story as a summary of the feelings between them.

The princess has the responsibilities of a princess, and in the face of freedom, she can only choose to face her own responsibilities.

Audrey really realized at this time that the original script still had the meaning behind it.

She was ashamed of her hindsight, Marita was her best friend, and Jonas was her lover, but she had always enjoyed Jonas's love, but never paid attention to his heart.

In the face of the love of a princess, he should be happy, but when two people can't be together, Jonas's heart should also be painful!

Audrey wiped her tears, stood up and smiled and said, "Mom, you misunderstood, things are not what you think." ”

Caroline looked at her with some suspicion and smiled brightly, and said, "Don't hide it, as Jonas's mother, I have a duty to him to remember his responsibilities as a man." ”

Audrey really figured it out this time, and when she heard Caroline say this, she couldn't help but snuggle into Caroline's arms and whispered, "Mom, things are really not what you think." Jonas has been nice and has been nice to me, I'm just worried about going tomorrow to see my dad I haven't seen in a long time. ”

"Can you explain to me what this script is about? Also, don't you suspect that Marita has a relationship with Jonas? ”

Audrey straightened up, looked into Caroline's eyes and said, "Mom, Jonas is so good, a man who can fascinate me deeply, and can attract the likes of other women, shouldn't it?" I don't know how many women envy me, and I should know to cherish my happiness now. ”

"Marita likes Jonas, she is noble, beautiful and charming, and it is normal for Jonas to be fascinated by her. But they were able to control their emotions and bury the relationship in their hearts, and I should be thankful rather than worried. If I haven't discovered this before, but isn't this script a summary of the feelings between them? ”

"The princess gave up her yearning for freedom for the sake of her own responsibility. Although there is a feeling, it will not disappoint anyone because of this feeling. Mom, I actually sympathize with the two of them more! ”

Caroline looked at her gentle smiling face, listened to her explanation without a trace of jealousy, and exuded a strong infatuation and happiness.

She couldn't help but be a little moved, stroked Audrey's little face and said, "Audrey, you are a very good girl, I will let Jonas cherish you well." ”

Audrey said a little shyly: "He's always been good, I can't hope for more." ”

In Windsor Castle in the western suburbs of London, the British royal family is also preparing for the Christmas ball the day after tomorrow.

48 is a year of economic recovery in the United Kingdom, and for the royal family, they have added the fourth generation of the royal family this year, and now the four generations are in the same house, which is also worth celebrating.

But unlike previous years, Marita, who was originally the fruit of royal joy, had no interest in her original favorite ball, and even Queen Mary took out her private small coffers to buy Marita a new dress, which did not make Marita happy.

In order to dispel Marita's unrealistic illusions, Queen Elizabeth decided to send invitations to this year's Christmas Ball to all the nobles of England who have young men of school age.

The best solution to make Marita forget about a relationship is a new one.

She believes that Marita will definitely find her true love.

George had been busy with the dismantling of Far Eastern Burma during this time, and the British adopted Zhounan's advice and retained the Andaman Islands as the last British military port in South Asia.

Fisheries are abundant, with nearly 90 percent of the island covered by forests and producing high-quality mahogany.

Today, Nanhua is the largest buyer in the Andaman Islands, and Chinese businessmen have a preference for rosewood, and they will purchase a large amount of rosewood every month, so that British merchants can make a lot of money from it.

Although a navy was stationed there, the military expenses of this navy were settled by relying on the arms trade and the sale of mahogany.

With stable military spending, Congress no longer raises the issue of the cost of garrisoning.

Britain, on the other hand, retains deterrence in South Asia and controls the western exit from the Strait of Malacca.

In order to obtain more military spending, the British garrison has been stirring up conflicts among various ethnic groups in the local area, which is a particular headache for George.

It is not a problem of one country, but of almost all countries.

The armies in South Asia are a little better, and the armies in East Asia have recently made George even more angry.

The local garrison has been secretly making small moves on more than one occasion, and the ruling Labour Party has very little influence in the army, and under the protection of the aristocracy and the Conservatives, they are simply unable to restrain the army.

In the long run, George had no doubt that those armies would cause big trouble.

However, it is not without optimism. The year before last, the British themselves thought that their sphere of influence was going to be completely withdrawn from Asia.

However, after adopting Zhounan's opinion, although India and Pakistan became independent, and Burma also became independent, the British influence in the local area increased.

Malaysia has seen other countries turn into war after independence, and they have been much more obedient lately, and they are no longer clamoring for independence until the situation is resolved.
