Chapter 164 Invitation
Mrs. Anderson looked at the cats and dogs playing in the grass by the lake, and a smile appeared on her face.
After a few more glances, Mrs. Anderson turned back to Barry and said.
"Is that your dog? Looks like he has a very good relationship with Sylvie, I haven't seen him play like any other animal before. ”
Barry also replied in a timely manner.
"The dog's name is Huck, and this time I was able to find the cat thanks to his sensitive nose."
"As for the fact that they are able to fight like this, it may be because they are looking at the right eye, after all, it is Huck who carried it all the way back."
"Huck? It's a very nice name, and it's a lively little guy when you hear it. ”
Mrs. Anderson complimented Huck, and then, as if realizing something, asked Barry a little embarrassed.
"I just looked at Sylvie and didn't ask the name of the "little hero" yet! ”
"It's a bit of a faux pas."
Barry waved his hand again and again, "How can this be considered rude, it's just that the joy of reunion occupies your heart." ”
Mrs. Anderson saw that Barry was so polite and so talkative, and the joy on her face was even greater, and she couldn't help but want to continue to share her current mood with Barry.
"Sylvie grew up at home, and although she sometimes ran around, she never left home for as long."
"To be honest, I'm really afraid that I'll never see it again in my life, after all, it has no experience in the wild!"
"On the one hand, I can only hope that someone will find the clue to it and take it home, and on the other hand, I can only turn to fate."
"Even the book I just read is a kind of sustenance, and I plan to use the method of prayer inside, silently wishing Sylvie a smooth home."
"Thankfully, you brought it back in the end."
"Thank you very much."
After saying that, she folded her hands and bowed slightly to Barry to express her gratitude.
Barry hurriedly avoided it, after all, the other party was old enough to be his grandmother, how could he accept this gift.
Besides, he didn't feel that he had done anything big, just completed a bounty task to find a cat with money.
However, when Barry was dodging, he curiously skimmed the book on the table out of the corner of his eye.
I saw that on the cover of the book was written "One Hundred Ways for the People to Bless Their Relatives with Good Luck", and at the end there were four very small words "Personally tested and effective".
six、six、six。
Barry really didn't expect that Mrs. Anderson, who was obviously an intellectual, would read such an unreliable book, just hoping to add a little luck to Sylvie.
"Looks like you really care about Sylvie!"
And Mrs. Anderson did not deny it, but said it in an emotional tone.
"It is something I have watched grow up since I was a child, from such a small milk cat, it has slowly grown into a tyrant of the manor, and I have seen the growth every day."
"I can say that it is my loved one, an inseparable part of my family."
Then he turned to Barry and asked, "You also have Huck, you should have this experience like me, right?" ”
Barry thought carefully in his heart.
Although Huck is greedy and playful, he is indeed an indispensable member of Adrian's family.
Ever since Huck came to Adrian's house, the Ronalds have cared for him, even better than they did to themselves.
Even Huck himself called the Ronalds was Mom and Dad, and the one he called in front of Barry was an intimacy.
So he replied decisively to Mrs. Anderson, "Yes, Huck is like my brother to me." ”
Hearing Barry's answer, Mrs. Anderson also said, "Sylvie is like my little grandson to me. ”
After talking to Mrs. Anderson for a while, Barry saw that the sun was gradually setting, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, so he planned to say goodbye to Mrs. Anderson.
If you delay a little longer, you will really have to go home, after all, in this city, you can't travel quickly.
And Mrs. Anderson heard Barry's words of resignation, and with a disgruntled expression on her face, she said to Barry in a slightly angry tone.
"What's the matter, don't you dislike me as an old woman, and don't even want to talk to me."
"Besides, Huck and Sylvie are having so much fun, how bad it is to break them up like this, let's let them play a little longer."
Although he knew that this was all Mrs. Anderson's disguise, Barry hastened to explain.
"How could it be, but it's really late now, and my mother is still waiting for us at home, and if there is no news for a long time, she will definitely be in a hurry."
"You've just had this experience, and Sylvie hasn't been home for a long time, aren't you also very anxious?"
But Mrs. Anderson quickly invalidated Barry's excuse, and she said to Barry.
"It's okay, you can call home to tell you if you're safe, if you don't have a phone at home, then tell me the address and I'll send a servant to drive them in."
"If possible, it's best to pick them up, I'm going to treat you to dinner tonight, and thank you for sending Sylvie home."
Seeing that Mrs. Anderson was so resolute, and even arranged all kinds of things, Barry could only reluctantly agree to come down and have dinner with her at the manor.
Of course, the specific reason why Barry agreed to stay may be a little guessable by Huck.
"If you leave now, I'm embarrassed to ask for the bounty!"
"Besides, looking at Mrs. Anderson, it's obvious that she wants to give me something else!"
Barry still has a certain understanding of this kind of invitation, after all, it is all simple human feelings.
So when Barry discussed it with Huck and decided that he wanted to stay here for dinner, he called Mrs. Celine and told her what was going on.
And Mrs. Celine was very happy after repeatedly confirming that Barry was not lying, after all, this means that her son has a certain social ability and can establish some contacts in society.
She had repeatedly confirmed that it was because she was worried that Barry would be lured into those unruly places.
After all, Barry was still a student, and that kind of place would only ruin him.
After a long conversation with Mrs. Celine, a servant arrives to inform Barry that dinner is ready, and guides him to the dining room.
The Anderson family's dining room is huge, but it's not as luxurious as Barry imagined, and the décor is more simple and warm.
The dining table is not as long as in the movie, but it is a little bigger than Barry's house, and it feels strangely harmonious to sit around.
There were a few dishes on the table, but most of them were covered with iron lids, so you couldn't see what was inside.
To Barry's surprise, in addition to Mrs. Anderson, there was also a seven or eight-year-old Lori sitting at the table.
