Reacquaint yourself (3)
Just when Sun Qian and the others were happily frantically shooting targets, Hoftton found them.
Avery and Wember had finished talking, and now they were going to call them back. Although both Every and Wenbo thought that Sun Qian and the others would obey their arrangement, out of respect for their own wishes, they still asked Hoftton to call them back for questioning.
"Mr. Ai, Uncle Wen." Sun Qian and Sun Xing have not yet recovered from the excitement of the first shot.
"Come back, sit down first, Winnie, come to Daddy, no one will bully your sweetheart." Every's words shocked the whole room, and Wen Bo on the side obviously knew something when he communicated in advance, and he didn't say anything. Just smile on the sidelines.
Winnie's little face was flushed, and she snuggled up to her father. The youngest daughter is full of manners, maybe she has been in China for a long time, and even coquettishness is similar to the habits of Chinese, just talking. "Oops, Daddy, I'm ignoring you." , nothing else, apparently agreeing with my father's statement.
At this time, Hofton was helpless, his old man was going to do it against the family again, and the most difficult thing to do was definitely his own. Mrs. doesn't care, is this yellow-skinned young man really so good, "Alas, it doesn't matter, it's a big deal to go to China with the master to live, the family can still go to China to make trouble." βγ
Sun Qian, on the other hand, looked confused. Although he has a crush on Winnie, his vague crush on it is not very clear. When Every said Winnie's sweetheart, Sun Qian was still thinking about whom, was it me? didn't say anything for a long time, and almost didn't hurt Winnie's heart, "Mr. Ai, I ......." I didn't say anything for a long time, the rookie in the East was pinched to death.
As for Sun Xing, he is happy, the young master has found a good girl, although she is a foreign girl, she is definitely worthy of the young master, maybe there will be an extra housewife when she returns to China.
β¦β¦β¦β¦..........
At this time, Winnie's mother happened to come back from equestrian practice, and she was very happy to see Sun Qian. After greeting each other, Alvery saw that everyone had arrived, so he got to the point of today.
"Sun Qian and Sun Xing, now I have a very serious question for the two of you." Avery said with a serious expression.
"You know, it's really unexpected for Wenbo to bring you here so early, to be honest, I haven't figured out how to arrange your future path, but I listened to Wenbo's introduction, I think it's better for you to choose by yourself." Avery said, explaining the situation to his wife, who had just returned from the equestrian field.
"Mr. Ai, we want to become stronger, and we came to you to become stronger. We must protect our relatives, and we must ensure that Chinese people are not bullied. Sun Xing said excitedly.
"That's right, Mr. Ai, we just want to become stronger, so strong that no one dares to bully us anymore." Sun Qian also responded.
"Well, that's a naΓ―ve point of view, so I'll have to ask you." , Alvori took over and said.
"You must know that there are many ways to make a person strong, such as making him rich and invincible, or making him an invincible general. How are you going to make yourself stronger? Every guided the two of them step by step to make a choice.
"Don't rush to answer, be sure to think carefully. Let's take a break with some tea first. Alferi firmly grasped the rhythm.
Looking at the two who were thinking seriously, the Everies didn't bother them, and drank tea by themselves.
After a few cups of tea, Alveli looked at the two of them and asked, "How is it, have you figured it out?" How you choose. βγ
"I chose to be a general, and with weapons we can protect our families." , Sun Xing said seriously.
"Very good, what about Sun Qian, how do you choose?" , Every turned to Sun Qian and asked.
"I haven't thought about it yet," Sun Qian replied hesitantly.
"Why, it's hard to just let you choose what to do." , a smile appeared on Every's face, and he continued to ask.
"I also want to be a general like Brother Xing, but I always feel that something is missing, and I can't say it." Sun Qian gave his doubts.
"Oh, yes, can you elaborate on that?" , Alfli continued to lead.
"You see those generals in our country, there are a lot of people under them, but although we are afraid of them, we are not in awe of them." Sun Qian analyzed.
"I've been thinking that they are great generals that everyone fears, but they give up the common people more for their own selfish interests, and they don't deserve to be respected." Sun Qian continued.
"I want to be a soldier, not a general but a soldier, I want to defend my motherland from being bullied by others, I want Chinese to have a place in this world, I want to make the streets of Chinatown no longer have casinos and brothels, and I don't want opium parlors everywhere." The more Sun Qian spoke, the more excited he became, and the clearer and clearer his choice became.
"It seems that you have made your choice, child, so cheer for your dreams." , Alveli was delighted.
Then Every looked at his wife, then at Hofton, and finally affectionately touched Winnie's head, took a deep breath, and then said.
"So, kids. Now that you have decided to accept my help, I also see you as my family. Now let's get acquainted again. After speaking, Every stood up solemnly, "I, Viscount Everley, have dual citizenship of Britain and the United States. He is now responsible for the family's Asia-Pacific affairs. It has absolute decision-making power in the affairs of the Asia-Pacific region. And I myself have absolute sincerity towards China. β
Afterwards, Alvey carefully introduced his family to everyone.
The Every family was the first to get involved with the British royal family. During the American Revolution, the Avery family began to intervene in it to make a fortune in the war. Relying on the status of the British royal family, the Avery family not only sold arms and war materials to the British army, but also secretly sold things to the United States in private. This made the Every family make a lot of money. But it also offended a large number of vested interests. So after the end of the American Revolutionary War, the suppressed Every family was divided into two, one of which finally settled in the United States, with the support of capitalists and unique financial advantages, the Every family soon established itself in the United States. By the time Benjamin was the father of Every, the Every family had become one of the best families in the United States, but it had been hidden behind everyone's back.
By the time Benjamin and Every arrived, he did not agree with his father's family business strategy of putting Europe first and then Asia, and he was more optimistic about the Chinese market. In the end, after constant disputes, Benjamin simply led his wife and children across the ocean to China. I stayed for ten years, and it wasn't until I got my father's poor health that I decided to come back.
During the ten years in China, Benjamin and Every deeply experienced the suffering of the Chinese people. From the contempt for this backward and ignorant country at the beginning, to the later identification with this country and this nation. And finally to be in awe of the country. Benjamin and Every were convinced that someone would step up and recreate the country's glory.
Every searched hard for the past ten years, until he saw the unwillingness and hard work of Sun Qian and the others on the ship, and Every felt that he had found the person he was looking for.
Today, when Sun Qian and the others arrived, Alveli consciously guided the two to ask questions in the direction they wanted, just to see if Sun Gan's thinking and consciousness could meet his requirements, obviously Sun Gan's answer made Alveli more satisfied.
After introducing the family situation, Every also made arrangements for the future of Sun Qian.
