Chapter 205: Goodbye Emperor
Reunions after a long absence are always sad and joyful, and the family dinner on the day of our return can be described as very difficult to forget. The family banquet was attended by Grandpa and Grandpa Dean, Sister Sally and Brother Chen, and of course Hai Lin and I.
This state basically set the mood for the dinner, and first Sister Sally chattered me about countless details about the expedition, the most of which was of course for Helen who was with me.
When everyone knew that we were together, Sister Sally strongly urged everyone to raise a glass to celebrate that I had finally "grown up", and immediately put her arm around Helen's shoulders and loudly announced that they were sisters from now on, and that they would protect her sister and help her take good care of me as a "bad boy......
The rest of the crowd also spoke out under the leadership of Sister Sally, and the topic basically pointed to the same question: When will you get married?
Hailin, who heard everyone's questions, blushed with shame, but she couldn't move under Sister Sally's restraint, so she had to turn her eyes to me for help.
Although I couldn't see my face, the feeling of fever definitely told me that it was no better than Helen at the moment. But after all, it was a man, so I stammered and thanked everyone present for their "concern", and also promised to propose to her as soon as the makeover cup was over.
The atmosphere of the dinner party reached a climax, and after everyone raised a glass to celebrate several rounds, Hailin, who was drunk and dizzy, was dragged away by Sister Sally, saying that she must help her sister buy some beautiful clothes.
And I was left by the two grandfathers and Brother Chen to continue "education" until the end......
When I finally woke up from the sun, I found that it was noon the next day, and although I drank a lot of wine last night, it was all the treasured goods that my grandfather had collected when he was running the boat many years ago, so there was no other discomfort except for some soreness in my whole body.
Naturally, the two-story building, where she had lived for many years, was in full view, with Grandpa watering flowers on the rooftop on the second floor, and Sally and Hailin making lunch together in the kitchen......
"Ah...... Hah", sat up and stretched long, and yawned exaggeratedly, feeling that the previous exhaustion seemed to have dissipated. It seems that after a period of nervous tension, it is indeed necessary to relax the adjustment moderately.
So I quickly washed up and dressed and went upstairs, and came to the old man who was bowing his head and tending to the flowers. This warm rooftop is one of my favorite places to spend my time at school. When the study task is completed and night falls, I stand quietly in the center and look up at the night sky, imagining what the situation of my parents and little sister above the distant stars is......
As an important resistant material in aerospace alloy materials, war should not be a bad thing for molybdenum ore 045, after all, both warring sides need to ensure the supply of these strategic raw materials. I believe that my father's salary should be increased a lot, so that the family can live a more comfortable life.
"Ahem", grandpa's slight coughing pulled me back from my brief distraction, only to find that the old man had straightened up and looked at me with a smile.
"I'm late to wake up, I want to see if I can help you" I was a little embarrassed to be distracted, and I raised my hand and scratched the back of my head.
Seeing my embarrassment, my grandfather motioned for me to come to the chair and sit down, and then slowly said, "I must be very tired during this time, and sleeping for a while is nothing." ”
Taking the tea I handed to moisten his throat, he continued: "After eating in a while, come with me into the palace to meet Your Majesty......"
......
When I returned to the Sun Palace, I didn't have the sincerity and fear I had at the beginning, but I had a faint expectation. Seeing the emperor again at this critical time should be good news, right?
Unlike the grand scale of the last meeting with the Leopard King, we only carefully inspected the palace gates, and then a middle-aged ceremonial official led us through the side door into a small path straight ahead.
It doesn't need to be as comfortable as last time, but ...... Wouldn't that be too casual? Looking at the captain and grandfather who followed the ceremonial officer in front of me, I was a little surprised in my heart, even my younger brother Leopard King has a strict process for entering the palace, why is it as simple as coming to a friend's house to visit the door today? What does it mean to look at the look in the eyes of this ceremonial officer when he sees his grandfather, which is the tacit meaning between old colleagues or good friends?
With this in mind, I followed my grandfather step by step, and under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, I walked through the long corridor and came to a small side hall......
