Chapter 63: The Manor

Coming to the gate of Goode Manor, James fulfilled the duty of a dogleg well, and he introduced Pipixia's identity to the housekeeper and servants of the manor very seriously, but it was a pity that the people of this manor had never seen Pipixia from the beginning, and were suspicious of James's introduction, and wanted to pass through the owner of the manor, Huang Xuemei, who was called Little Miss.

Fortunately, by a stream outside the manor, someone who was fishing heard the noise and turned around, saw Pipisha's figure, and ran over with a shout, proving his identity.

"Oh Natsu, my friend, where have you been these days? It's so unbelievable to leave all your affairs to your young sister! ”

Pipicia reluctantly said to the visitor: "Jonathan, it's a pleasure to see you again, I naturally have to be busy these days, so I won't talk about it for the time being, then again, can you tell me why you are here?" ”

Jonathan, who was slick and ruffian, looked familiar: "Of course, because my family is also nearby, you see, the manor across the river is my family's ancestral house, Evelyn and I have lived there since childhood, but unfortunately, a few years ago, my parents died, leaving a large debt, and our brother and sister could not pay it, so we had to leave there and run to Egypt, and now it is finally time to redeem it, and praise the generosity of Hamnata." ”

"I see, please forgive me for belated congratulations on your return home."

Except for the villain Benny, who was thrown into Cairo Prison for following Immorton and aiding in the abuse, waiting for endless chrysanthemums and wounds all over the ground, everyone else who experienced the Battle of Hamnata made a fortune, and the Jonathan siblings and O'Connor were no exception.

"Rejoice and rejoice." Jonathan actually shook two Chinese words, which made Pipicia laugh.

The housekeeper of the manor over there obviously knew Jonathan, strictly speaking, he and most of the servants in the manor were found with the help of Jonathan's brothers and sisters, after all, Huang Xuemei was a little girl and a foreigner, and it was inconvenient to do many things in England.

For this reason, Jonathan testified for Pippixia, and the housekeeper temporarily believed the identity of the owner of Pipicia's manor and opened the gate of the manor, but asked Pipixia to still follow him to meet the little master, that is, Huang Xuemei, for final confirmation.

Jonathan, who was the introducer, was also helpless, explaining on the way: "Mr. Pinault is just a stubborn person, and his character and personality are actually quite good, and he is very trustworthy." ”

Pippi was not annoyed: "It's nice to be in charge like this, thank you, Jonathan." ”

After receiving the compliment, Jonathan smiled happily: "It is incumbent upon you to serve your friends." ”

Turning the lawn and garden path, when I saw Huang Xuemei again, the little girl was wearing an English dress, and she was drinking afternoon tea with Evelyn while reading a book, and it seemed that Evelyn was teaching her something.

It's just that the little girl's brows are frowned, and that kind of melancholy mood can be felt from afar, and her heart is definitely not very peaceful, and shaking her calves on the chair also shows that she is absent-minded.

That is, Evelyn was relatively sluggish, and she didn't notice that the little girl was wandering, or in other words, Huang Xuemei was in the period of NZT-48's medicinal effect at this time, even if it was more than enough to be distracted.

Seeing this scene, Pipicia also relieved her heart, as long as the little girl was not having a bad time these days.

The old butler Pino bowed to everyone and signaled to wait for a while, then walked over and reported to Huang Xuemei about Pipixia's arrival, and when the little girl heard this, she turned her head and saw Pipixia beckoning, her eyes lit up, and she immediately jumped out of the chair and ran over with the corner of her little skirt.

Evelyn, who also heard the old butler's report, smiled: "Oh, old Pino, it looks like you offended the employer you worked for as soon as you met." ”

The old butler confirmed Pippixia's identity, and when he heard Evelyn's teasing, he didn't show a worried expression, but just took off his glasses, wiped them and put them back on, straightened his clothes, and said with a stereotypical expression: "Miss Evelyn, I'm just doing my duty as a housekeeper." ”

Evelyn shrugged and put down the book in her hand, "Okay, serious old man, but today it seems that I can't do my duty, my lovely student gave up her English lessons and ran to reunite with her brother." ”

"Extenuating circumstances, isn't it?" The old butler tugged at the corners of his mouth, and Quan did laugh.

"Yes, but I'm curious where our friend has left his sister these days, hoping he will bring a good story." Evelyn said, walking over to Pippia.

Over there, Pipicia had already caught Huang Xuemei who rushed over, and the little girl hugged him tightly, and then cried with a wow: "I thought you didn't want me anymore." ”

Pipixia was full of black lines and patted the little girl's head: "What nonsense? It's just that you encountered some emergencies and couldn't come back in time, how are you doing these days? ”

The little girl knew that Pipixia did not deliberately leave her for many days, but really encountered an accident before she put her mind at ease and briefly recounted her experience these days, but Pipixia noticed that the little girl was obviously hiding some things, such as the situation of Ling Zhe Lao Dao and others, she didn't mention a word, probably because Jonathan was next to him, worried that he would say it with a big mouth.

Later, Evelyn came over to catch up, and Pippia found that after Evelyn mentioned in the chat that Ling Zhe Lao Dao and the others had left England a few days ago, Huang Xuemei's face had obvious expressions, and she knew that she had something to say in private.

After renewing the old relationship with the Jonathan brothers and sisters, agreeing to have a meal together, and instructing the Pinault butler to take James away, and giving a reward by the way, he finally had time to confess to Huang Xuemei privately.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else you want to tell me? ”

The little girl saw that there was no one around, so she nodded and said: "Yes, it's about Grandpa Lingzhe and them, Grandpa Lingzhe They went to the British Museum five days ago, looking for that eye, and made a big fuss, in order to avoid being caught by the English people, they have been evacuated and returned to China first, before leaving, he asked me to tell you, the things have been obtained, and someone is willing to help find the tomb of the Dragon Emperor, the thousand years of suffering will finally see the light, thank you very much for your help, if you return to China when, remember to find them to drink, in addition, He left this for you, saying that he had given it to you as a thank you. ”

Pipixia took the things handed by the little girl, and it was actually a pure heart borrowing Fapei, and Ling Zhe was really willing to do it.
