Chapter 741: Barnabe's Troubles
"Jesenia, you also have to understand that love also means dedication and sacrifice." Sara looked at Yesenia and said, "In the future, you may encounter even more difficult difficulties than you do now, and I hope you can be strong and become a strong help to James." ”
"I will, ma'am." Yesenia said firmly.
Chen Wei understood what his mother meant by these words, and he also knew that when his mother said these words to Yesenia, she had already done the most thoughtful consideration for him and her within the scope of the family's interests, and he was very grateful.
"Tonight, General Seymour is going to welcome me at a banquet at the base command, when he will personally honour James, but unfortunately, Jesenia, you can't witness this moment with me, and I hope you understand." Sara seemed to sense Chen Wei's mental activity, turned her head to glance at him, and then said to Yesenia.
"I understand, ma'am." Yesenia replied calmly, of course she knew that she was not allowed to appear on that occasion, which in the eyes of other women might consider a shame, but she did not mind.
For Chen Wei, she can endure no matter what kind of thing she does.
After the afternoon tea, Sara asked the servant to send Yesenia and Chen Huan down to rest, and then left Chen Wei alone.
Chen Wei knew that the real moment had come.
"Mom's ......"
"You should have told me at the beginning, instead of this prelude, in your eyes, your mother is so unreasonable?" Sara glared at Chen Wei and turned around.
"I was wrong, mom ......" Chen Wei hung his head and said in a low voice.
"My question isn't a big deal, but have you ever thought about how Anne would react if she found out?" Sara came to the window. Looking at the mountains in the distance, he whispered.
"I wrote a letter to Anne's brother Eustace and asked him to help ......," Chen Wei raised his head, looked at his mother's back, and said softly.
"Looks like you've been prepared." Sara turned her head to look at him and smiled. "Why do you think Eustace will help you persuade his sister? Do you think he's still the little kid who runs behind your ass all day? ”
"Eustace liked Helen, and I told him he wouldn't want to see him again if he didn't help me persuade Anne." Chen Wei thought of what Eustace's expression would be when he saw his letter, and he snickered in his heart.
"You're trading Helen?" Hearing that Chen Wei actually used his 11-year-old little sister Chen Jing as a bargaining chip to threaten his friend Eustace, Sara couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Chen Wei is the eldest son in the family, and he has a very good relationship with his two younger sisters on weekdays, although Chen Huan loves to talk to his brother, but no matter what happens, he is still willing to think about Chen Wei. As long as Chen Wei is at home, she always follows her brother, and is nicknamed "James's tail" by Chen Huan.
Eustace likes Chen Jing, and it can be said that he is in Chen Wei's arms.
"Looks like you don't need me to do anything for you anymore." Sara laughed.
"Nope! Mom! Anne, I still need you to help me......" Chen Wei was anxious all of a sudden.
"Just remember the lesson." Knowing that her purpose of teaching her son had been accomplished, Sara no longer let him be anxious, but consulted with him about how to persuade Anne to come.
Night. At the base command, Vice Admiral Seymour, commander of the British Mediterranean Fleet, held a grand welcome banquet. Welcoming the honored guest from the Rothchild family, Mrs. Sarah, Vice Admiral Seymour, on behalf of the British Admiralty, personally awarded Chen Wei the "Order of Distinguished Service" at the banquet, announced Chen Wei's promotion to lieutenant, and personally replaced him with a collar badge and epaulettes. Seeing this scene, Chen Wei's friends and the non-commissioned officers and students of the Qianguo State were all thunderous with joy. All the guests present gave a standing ovation, and looking at her heroic son, Sara shed tears of excitement.
London, United Kingdom.
There was a tavern next to the Houses of Parliament, and Barnabay was tired of walking. So I chose a table under the big tree and sat down. He asked for a cup of coffee, and his sitting posture was a little restrained, and if someone looked at the shade from the middle of the road, he might feel uncomfortable and a little awkward. His back was straight, his hands were clenched into fists on his thighs, he was dressed in newly bought black clothes, and a white scarf was tightly tied around his neck. This appearance, which may have been mistaken for a person taking a daguerreotype, sits motionless, waiting for the long exposure to end, the person has become dizzy, and for some reason, as time passes, the bottom plate slowly sucks in his image and takes away part of his soul forever.
The British Navy's shipbuilding director was still thinking about the battle that had taken place in Alexandria.
Lately he had bought The Times every morning from the newsboy, and he had bought a copy today.
Barnabe drank his coffee until there was only a residue at the bottom of the cup, then picked up the newspaper, hoping to find something that would appeal to him to read and distract himself. There was an article about the dire situation in Khartoum, but I couldn't read it anyway. Anyway, there won't be anything new on this topic that he doesn't know. Turning to the third page, he saw a piece of news about the Japanese Government's issuance of naval bonds and the construction of a large shipyard in Xiamen, the Japanese have always wanted to rebuild their navy, and they are eyeing Korea under the control of Qianguo, but Qianguo has always been very vigilant against Japan's moves, and although Qianguo is facing very difficult finances and is facing floods and droughts in the country, the Qianguo government is still doing its best to strengthen its navy and guard against possible threats from Japan and Russia, and the recent construction of a new shipyard in Xiamen is a very good proof of this. The fact that this shipyard was called a naval shipyard indicates that it was built to serve the Qianguo navy, and Banabe fully understood the intention of the Qianguo people - they wanted to build large ironclad ships in order to maintain the hegemony of the Qianguo in East Asia.
