Chapter Fifty-Eight: Cousin Talker
But Aunt Stephanie was a little alienated and strange in comparison, and only symbolically praised a few words of wisdom and beauty, and maintained a ladylike demeanor reservedly.
However, in the eyes of the cautious Phil, she is far less beautiful and generous than Catherine.
And cousin Bruce, who is completely a copy of his grandfather Brad, has a very similar face and a strong figure.
is only ten years old, and his height and size are almost two times better than Phil.
Bruce was curious about his cousin, who he had met for the first time, and sat across from Phil, staring straight at his face.
Look at the hairy, I hate curious little kids the most.
If it weren't for the fact that he felt that he might not be able to beat him, Phil would have just mocked.
In desperation, he had no choice but to give Bruce a harmless smile, and also took a piece of fried soufflé and put it on the other party's plate.
"Thank you!" Bruce was pleased with his cousin's kindness, even though he didn't pause.
Although he had heard his mother gossip many times, it was quite good to meet him for the first time.
The white blonde hair is different from the reddish-brown of the entire Snape family, and it should be inherited from Aunt Catherine, and it is very beautiful.
The face is also quite delicate, like a girl.
In particular, a pair of azure eyes, like two brilliant sapphires, are hazy and pure, as if they can sink you in.
But why is it so short and so fat?
The mother said that she had been suffering from the womb of her mother, and that her soul was damaged, and that she would become stupid for a period of time every month.
But isn't that a problem with the brain? Why is the body so fat, so short?
While Bruce was cutting the soufflé with a knife and fork, his mind was full of question marks, and he was actually a little disdainful of the disgust and worry about his mother's occasional words.
After all, my mother was born in a merchant family, and even if my uncle was a city councilor, her eyelids were still too shallow.
I and my grandfather look like a mold, and my father is my grandfather, the heir of His Majesty the Emperor, what is there to worry about.
Influenced by his grandfather, from the moment he was sensible, he aspired to become a general who would soon be crowned a marquis, just like the legendary heroic ancestor of the Snape family, O Snape.
As soon as he finished eating the fried soufflé, Phil handed over another milk finch.
It was good intentions, and Bruce still enjoyed it calmly.
But when it was finished, there was another fish steak on the plate, and then half a pie......
Even though he felt that his appetite had always been good, Bruce felt a little bit held up after eating it all in one sitting.
He was embarrassed to refuse his cousin's kindness in public, so he had to eat piece by piece.
I just wondered, how did Phil's fat figure turn out to be eaten?
And Phil's idea at this time is very simple, that is, to try to let the bear child in front of him focus on the meal, he is really unbearable by the eager gaze of this somewhat cute second cousin.
Sure enough, with their own careful thoughts, the family feast of the Snape family came to a successful conclusion.
Grandpa Brad took his father Matthew and Uncle to the study to talk about things, and of course, it may be a different place to secretly drink and smoke.
Catherine also accompanied Grandma Jane and Stephanie to the conservatory.
In the huge room, only Phil and the curious cousin Bruce were left.
Fortunately, this cousin, who was a little lacking, didn't seem to have malicious intent, and didn't ask about his illness in public, at least it didn't embarrass Matthew and Catherine. This made Phil a little better for his senses.
However, that doesn't mean he has the patience to be in the same room with a curious bear child.
So, he walked to the study, intending to talk to Matthew about his workout.
As a result, he was kicked out by three people who were drinking and smoking.
Then he went to the conservatory, a little worried about whether Catherine would be angry.
As a result, under the touch of his grandmother, Catherine threw him a fruit and blasted him out.
The hall was brightly lit, and the heat in the fireplace made the room warm.
The two boys, one older and one younger, sat on the sofa staring wide-eyed, and there was a strong smell of embarrassment in the air.
Phil felt a little painful, how did he get to the city, he still had to play with the children.
It was Bruce who broke the deadlock, and it was so easy that the adults were gone, and he was holding back why he wanted to ask this little cousin.
As a result, people followed the buttocks of grandfather and grandmother, and just ignored him.
Bruce didn't care, as if he didn't notice Phil's embarrassment, and sat directly next to him and hugged the little fat man.
"Are you cured?" finally asked, not only Bruce, but also Phil felt a big relief in his heart.
"Not yet, but it's a lot lighter. ”
Phil was a little unaccustomed to being hugged, especially a boy, and struggled out of a bit of Bruce.
Bruce didn't seem to care, leaned over to Phil again, and said, "You can stay in Gokan City from now on." There are the best medical priests here, and there are a lot of fun things to do, and I'll show you them all......"
Bruce crackled, introducing him to all the good things he knew.
From Kelly's bakery to Holmes, from Richie's three-headed blue frog to the little sandcastle at Meryl's amusement park, the conversation went on and on for a quarter of an hour.
Until Phil handed him a glass of water, because he sensed that the other party might be thirsty and needed to drink water to moisten his throat, he was thirsty when he listened.
To tell the truth, Phil was suppressed, and when he was in Fallen Horse Town, Anna and Blair often chattered, but they were all girls, and their voices were sweet and beautiful.
The only boy who is a little better is still a cold face, and he cherishes words like gold.
Although I have been getting close a lot lately, most of the time he is talking, and the other party is listening, like a piece of wood.
But the cousin in front of him completely subverted his impression of the Ward man. The speed of his speech was so fast that he couldn't interject at all.
Phil was quite emotional at this time, and he felt that he was completely defeated.
In his previous life, he discovered an interesting phenomenon, when two people who are also chattering together, they will automatically distinguish each other.
He and his friends once did a test, calling the two best buddies in their respective groups together to form a game.
As a result, an hour later, one of the buddies didn't say a word.
Not only that, but even within a year, this buddy was never seen at any meeting place again.
It seems that some kind of self-confidence has been completely shattered and self-sealed.
The scene in front of him was familiar, and Phil felt that he was the one who had been defeated.
At this moment, the situation of the entire Gaokan City seemed to have been instilled into his mind alive, and it was extremely vivid.
This cousin Bruce is a talent, what kind of soldier is he, to be a sales or temple propaganda officer, he is definitely a good hand, and he is talented.
However, the bombardment of words eventually ended with the farewell of the Francis family.
Despite being the heir, as a baron of real power, he still had his own mansion in the city, but his son was often picked up by his grandparents to live for a few days.
Phil also had a great change in his impression of this cousin, especially when he patted Phil on the shoulder and said: "In the future, in Gaokan City, if someone dares to bully you, you will report my name and I will clean him up." ”
"Big brother, I'll mess with you in the future. Phil was almost touched by a little kid's flickering, and he was a little ashamed of such a sassy sentence.
Before secretly examining oneself, I always speculate on people's hearts from the darkest angle, whether it is too unbright, which is not good.
So, after a night of silence, he gave Bruce a small hug and made the other laugh happily.
It wasn't until she got into the carriage that Stephanie asked her son what her impression of Phil was.
Bruce was silent for a moment, scratching his head and uncertainly, "Cousin Phil seems to be a little stupid. ”
Leaving aside the two cousins, who thought each other were silly, Phil's first day at Earl's Court passed without incident.
It seemed like a pretty good start, at least far beyond his expectations.
Over the next few days, Phil, led by Matthew and Catherine, walked around the city.
Among them, the playground, department store and candy house are the focus of the family of three.
Phil, and Catherine, of course, lived a shopping addiction that had been sealed for several years, and every afternoon when she came home, the cart would often be filled with what she bought.
Although Gaokan City is a military city, the commercial atmosphere and prosperity are far from other second-tier cities, but after all, it is a city with a population of nearly one million.
