Chapter 232: White Christmas Has Guests
Just after Christmas 2010, it snowed in Vaduz, and although it was only a thin layer, it allowed the stamp town to hide in the snow-covered Alps.
This snow came very strangely, on the night of Christmas Eve, it did not fall, and the day before yesterday the Christmas bell rang, it still did not fall. This winter is not cold, and everyone thought that there would be no snow, but just yesterday morning people opened the windows only to find that it had come quietly.
It came as promised without the slightest warning, just like that magical love.
In the morning, when Zhuo Yang and Uncle Albert drove to Zurich, Coco gave him a full collar. "Brother Zhuo Yang, drive slowly on the road."
"Don't worry." Zhuo Yang said: "There is plenty of time, don't worry, I will be careful." He kissed her forehead.
Midel Swinburne watched them from the window on the second floor, and when she saw Zhuo Yang looking up, she smiled sweetly.
The four members of Swinburn's family arrived yesterday afternoon, as well as others, all relatives of the Koukou family, including her legendary cousin Gavin Philip, who arrived in Vaduz yesterday afternoon.
These people were members of the Joseph clan in the broad sense of the word, and although they did not rush back to the family ancestral house on Christmas Day, basically everyone who was in charge of the family came.
The whole family only got together for Christmas last Christmas, and this year there was no need to reunite, but because of the big news brought by Zhuo Yang, Coco's father, Archduke Joseph of Austria, notified each family and asked them to come back together to sum up.
Zhuo Yang is relatively slow to respond to the age of girls, otherwise he would not have turned a blind eye to the Yin Ziyanhong around him when he was in middle school. But when he saw Midel yesterday, he suddenly realized that Midel was indeed a big girl.
In a few days, Michelle, who will turn 16 years old, is like a flower waiting to bloom, and the plump bones can no longer hide the charming floral fragrance. In terms of appearance alone, Midel is slightly inferior to Coco at the same age, but her more outgoing and enthusiastic personality makes her easier to get close to. If the story of Kou and Zhuo Yang were replaced by Midel, they would not have waited for each other for six years in a daze, and maybe it would not take three years to come to him desperately.
The last time I saw Midel was last summer, and Zhuo Yang felt that she had a little bit of life with herself, but Midel was still Midel. This goodbye, he was in a trance, and it seemed difficult to connect the beautiful girl in front of him with the little girl who jumped and jumped on his body when he saw him over the years.
Midel and Coco also have a little bit of life, she used to be her cousin's henchman, and she likes to imitate her cousin's smile the most, and when she is with Coco, she always has to squeeze into the same bed at night. But this time when she came to Vaduz, Midel asked for a separate bedroom, and no longer had to pester her cousin to whisper in the middle of the night.
The children of aristocratic families all had their own sports that they were relatively good at, and Midel's brother Jefflin was a volleyball setter, and Midel also chose the modern compound bow at the age of 11. Although she doesn't have the keen talent of the bow and arrow, Midel does not have the obsessive-compulsive disorder of trying to win rankings, and the original purpose of sports is to strengthen the body and develop temperament.
But last fall, Midel, who had been practicing compound bowing for four years, suddenly gave up, and she became interested in women's foil. According to Jefflin, Midel is indeed better suited to foil, and her progress in this project is much more pronounced than that of compound bows. I have been practicing for nearly a year, and I have already made some achievements.
Zhuo Yang smiled and said to Mi Dai'er: I know a little gossip knife technique, do you want to find a wooden sword and let us make two moves?
Jefflin said: Go and go, that's not the same thing. The knife technique is even slashing, but the fencing can only stab, coupled with the difference in physical strength, Midel can't even catch a move.
Midel pouted and said, "Not necessarily......
She also said: "I don't want to practice foil much anymore, it's not fun." ”
"Why?"
Midel was reluctant to answer, and Jefferin took over the topic: "The foil teacher who has been guiding Midel suddenly resigned in the summer. said that there was something at home, but he didn't want to say the specific reason. Our family promised to raise their wages and said that they could wait for him to finish the family's affairs, but he insisted on leaving and did not want to stay for a day. ”
"Midel is angry, so she doesn't want to practice."
"Hey, the foil coach has gone to the sea, do you want me to help you find an Olympic champion from South Korea?" Zhuo Yang said.
Midel still pouted and shook her head.
Zhuo Yang said again: "Otherwise, I'll teach you nunchucks, you can defend yourself after practice, which is more practical than foil." Rest assured, I will never say goodbye and will not give up halfway. You see, I don't charge yet, and this transaction can be done. ”
Midel smiled happily, but still shook her head, she knew that Zhuo Yang was just teasing her.
"After the foil coach left, we couldn't get in touch with him." With Midel on his back, Geofflin spoke to Zhuo Yang in detail. "Midel liked that teacher Schmering, and he liked Midel too, but he just said go. Midel thinks she's too stupid and lets the teacher down. ”
"Hey, if you don't practice, you won't practice, it's not a big deal." Zhuo Yang said: "It shows that Mi Daier still doesn't love foil, otherwise she would give up because of such a trivial matter." It is up to her what sports she likes to play, and she will not eat at this point in the future, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't like any sports. ”
.
Seeing Zhuo Yang and Uncle Albert's Rolls-Royce leave, Coco turned and walked into the small building, Vaduz was an hour and a half from Zurich Airport, Uncle Albert knew the road well, and if all went well, they would return in the afternoon.
Midel also came down from the upper floors. "Sister Coco, when do you and Brother Zhuo Yang plan to get married?" After whispering, Midel stole a glance out of the corner of her eye at her uncle sitting on the sofa at the other end of the hall.
"I'm afraid it's going to be four years from now." Coco pouted slightly and shrugged her shoulders. "Midel, will you be my bridesmaid then?"
"Four years?" Midel tilted her head and thought for a moment, "...... I'm 20 years old, so let's talk about it......"
.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhuo Yang returned from Zurich on time and took the guests he went to greet him. When they stepped down the black phantom, Kou's father and mother were already standing on the porch waiting.
The two guests hurried forward, and Zhuo Yang introduced Kou Dad to the bearded middle-aged man who walked in front: "This is His Excellency the Austrian Grand Duke." ”
The tall middle-aged man came to Kou's father, stood still, and bowed down with the standard one-legged knightly etiquette.
"Your Excellency the Archduke of Austria, after the guilty man Andrei Sweedevich Tsygrinsky has come to your audience."
