241. Welcome to Salamanca
On the way back from the airport, it was my cousin Ramiro who was in charge of driving.
Emilia drove Michael to the passenger seat, and she herself sat in the back seat with Scott, talking all the way.
While talking about her and Michael's life in Spain, she asked Scott about her life at school this semester from time to time, and she was very busy.
Scott also listened carefully to her story, and at the same time patiently answered her questions.
Listening to Emilia talk about her and Michael's life in Spain, and seeing the reluctant smile on her face, Scott finally felt a lot more relieved.
It was because of him that his parents had to leave their favorite town in England and have to live in a foreign country.
Although there was a reason for it, it made Scott always feel sorry for it.
But now he heard, Michael and Emilia had fully adjusted to life here, especially Emilia, who was clearly happy with her mother's family after being reunited.
In this way, Scott felt less sorry in his heart.
Scott glanced out the car window at the passing street scene and asked Amilia, "Millie, did you buy a house in Madrid?" ”
"Oh Scott!"
Ramiro, who was driving, laughed out loud,
In English, he is not fluent, he said: "Aunt Millie doesn't have to buy a house in Madrid, the Hill family has a lot of houses in Madrid, and Aunt Millie has more than one house in her name." ”
Scott raised an eyebrow at Emilia.
He knew nothing about his grandfather's family.
I only know that my great-grandfather was once the master of an underground gang in London.
Emilia was a little embarrassed and said, "I used to give up all those things, but I didn't expect Caleb to keep them for me...... Oh, Caleb is your uncle. ”
Scott was a little incredulous, "Haven't you been in touch all these years?" ”
Emilia shook her head.
Ramiro interjected, "Oh, my dad and Aunt Millie used to have a bad relationship, and neither of them wanted to bow to each other first, so they had a stalemate for more than ten years. ”
“……”
Scott glanced at Emilia in surprise and deliberately looked at Michael through the rearview mirror.
"Oh? Why? ”
Although he asked so, Scott had already gone to answer in his heart.
Michael was just a gangster who dropped out of high school before he inherited the family business, who would want to marry his good girl to him?
In addition, everyone in the Hill family later returned to Spain, but Emilia stayed in England alone and gave birth to Scott at the age of 18......
There are all kinds of signs that this is that Emilia and her mother's family completely fell out at that time.
This is probably the main reason why Emilia never mentioned the situation at her grandfather's house to Scott.
Faced with Scott's question, Emilia was vague.
Michael, who was looking at Scott through the rearview mirror, just winked at him.
But Ramiro, who was in charge of driving, couldn't help but laugh again.
Scott asked him, "Do you know anything, Ramiro?" ”
Ramiro shook his head directly, as if he didn't dare to tell him directly.
Talking and laughing, the car drove into a neighborhood full of the temperament of the "rich area".
"We're almost there!" Ramiro exclaimed, "Welcome to Salamanca!" ”
"Thank you." Scott joked, "It's a pity I'm just a small-town boy in England, and I'm a bit out of place here." ”
Ramiro laughed, "You'll have to get used to this, Scott!" Aunt Millie and Uncle Mike have both moved in, and this will be your home from now on! ”
"I'll try." Scott pretended to be serious.
"Of course." Ramiro gave him a look in the rearview mirror, "I'll help you, just get to know a few more girls and you'll love it here!" ”
Scott raised an eyebrow.
Before he could answer, Emilia couldn't wait to say, "Then please, Ramiro!" Scott is about to turn 15, but as far as I know, he hasn't been in a relationship yet! ”
"Oh......" Ramiro let out a long, prolonged exclamation.
"Hey!" Scott looked at Emilia dissatisfied.
Isn't it normal to not be in a relationship at the age of 15?
Emilia ignored his gaze and continued to say to Ramiro: "You have a whole summer vacation, you take Scott with you, football, concerts, parties, beaches, surfing, in short, just let Scott follow you!" ”
"No problem! Aunt Millie! I'll play with Scott and introduce him to some good girls. ”
Ramiro laughed and agreed.
But Scott didn't want to say yes.
The activities Emilia was talking about sounded like a lifetime away, and he was already far away from those whole lives.
He himself was a little strange.
Obviously, he liked this kind of lively activity in his previous life, but now he feels a little resistant just thinking about it.
Maybe it's been going on for too long.
He thought.
It feels like it's going to be a lot of effort to switch.
It's just that when Scott saw the contemptuous look that Michael handed over, the words of refusal were blocked and he didn't say anything.
Never mind.
Scott opened the window and let the warm wind ruffle his hair.
At Hogwarts, his nerves had been tense for a long time, and it was good to relax once in a while.
Not long after, the car drove into a residential area with a concentration of single-family villas and stopped in front of a large villa.
"Aunt Millie, you go down first, I'll go park." Ramiro said.
Scott's family of three got out of the car first.
After getting out of the car, Emilia straightened Scott's hair with her hands and dragged him into the garden in front of the villa.
"Millie, Mike, you're back!"
The door to the villa opened and a lady who looked to be in her 40s walked out.
She spoke English with a stronger accent than Ramiro, but smiled passionately.
"You must be Scott!"
She rushed over and hugged Scott.
"I'm your Aunt Flora!"
"Hello, Aunt Flora."
As soon as Scott said hello, Flora took Scott's arm and walked into the house.
"Come in, dear, your uncle must want to see you too!"
She turned back and winked at Scott.
"You must forgive him for not welcoming you at the door, this kind of old man is more face-loving."
"Ahem! Ahem! ”
A few heavy coughs rang out just in time.
Scott followed the prestige and saw a man who also looked to be about 50 years old sitting on the couch.
He also had reddish-brown hair, meticulously brushed back.
There is no smile on the angular face, the beard on the lips and chin is very shapely, and the pursed mouth looks a little serious.
It seems that this is Uncle Caleb.
