Boom—
In the state of Auschwitz, a steam train spewing black smoke was galloping on the rails, galloping like a giant steel beast.
The birth and popularization of the “internal combustion engine” has spread to the Kingdom of Baia, but it is currently only being tested in very few developed areas.
The train of the new generation is faster,
But if you want to popularize that new type of transportation across the country, it will take at least ten years to start.
The efficiency of the Baia Kingdom is already very high. Tu Fu recalled the memories of his previous life. In some cities, the repair of subway lines takes ten years as a cycle.
The direction of the train is Leeds, a small seaside city in the northern part of Osway.
Since Miss Winster agreed to the marriage request, Tu Fu has been discussing this matter every day. She wants to return to the “place where the dream began” to complete the major events in life, and Tu Fu has no reason to refuse.
Besides, many people are involved in the marriage.
Uncle Ethan’s family is okay, it is a small family, and there are not many people in the ancestors.
The trouble is that Gustav’s family, where my aunt lives, is a well-known local family, so there are a lot of red tape.
This time the third-generation child of the family got married, and married an adopted son, which is by no means a trivial matter for that kind of family.
Judging from the test results of my aunt’s letter home, the situation is not too good.
“Why do my parents agree to my marriage, why do other people have opinions.”
After getting off the train station platform, Sophie puffed her cheeks sullenly and complained in a low voice full of resentment.
Uncle Ethan, who has a lot of experience in this matter, took the luggage and replied as someone who has been there:
「My dear Sophie, because marriage is never a matter between two people, after all, it is a matter between two families, and procedures must be followed.
Decent, our family motto is that decent is greater than some. “
“Oh, Uncle, how did you catch up with Auntie?” Tu Fu asked maliciously when he heard his uncle answering in a serious manner while pinching his throat.
「My dear lady is of course addicted to my personal charm…」
Before Uncle Ethan finished bragging, Aunt snorted coldly:
“Ethan, you’d better stop right now and stop disgusting me. I really don’t want to tell the stupid things you did in front of the children.”
「Nice charm.」
When the two children of the Winster family saw this scene, they each covered their mouths with their hands and tried to laugh as much as possible.
Of course they knew about Uncle Ethan’s love affair when he got on the bus and bought the ticket when he was young. This absurd thing made the Gustav family very angry at the time.
According to the plan, the well-educated Aunt An Feier should marry a wealthy heir to make a strong marriage, but the relationship between the two families deteriorated immediately after being disturbed by him.
So much so that in the past few decades, even if my uncle became famous, he still dared not go back to his mother’s house to visit.
Aunt Anfei’er tightly held her uncle’s arm, her words were quite stiff:
“Ethan, no matter what, you have to go back with me this time. We will stay at home for a while, discuss Sophie and their marriage with them, and make up for what you owed me in one go.”
“God is above, the goddess is above, the **** of order is above, no matter who it is… Help!” Even if Ethan covered his face and prayed to the gods, he couldn’t escape.
Their house was sold to a local family long before going to Göttinghagen, and now there is no place to live at this moment.
If it’s other trivial matters, I’ll stay in a hotel if it’s a big deal, but the family must always be notified about the children’s marriage.
Although the latter was extremely unwilling, Uncle Ethan finally showed an embarrassing expression that was more reluctant than taking poison under the coercion of his aunt:
“Okay, okay, it’s all for my husband, Sophie… At worst, I will be sacrificed.”
This is the provisional plan. Uncle and aunt will go back to Gustav’s house first. After the discussion there, Tu Fu and Sophie will go to find the Capet family.
Before that, they could distribute some invitations to their acquaintances in Leeds. Now Tu Fu is a figure in Baia High and Low, so such a shabby event like marriage is not acceptable.
For middle- and upper-class families, decency is indeed above all else.
After coming out of the train station, the two teams separated. Tu Fu held Sophie’s little hand and stood near the station admiring the small town that he hadn’t seen for several years. Naturally, he had a special feeling in his heart.
The intercity line of Leeds is generally a bit higher than in the past. Before coming here, I also heard that the local government has refurbished the old city.
Although there are few entertainment areas, the necessary infrastructure is basically in place.
Tu Fu has traveled all over the years, and he has been everywhere, leaving behind his footsteps no matter how big or unique the city is.
But most of the time, I always miss this small coastal city in my heart.
It is probably everyone’s dream to return home after becoming famous.
Seeing Tu Fu, Sophie was stunned for a moment, and her white palms could not help dangling in front of his eyes: “Hey, why are you in a daze, shouldn’t we go find your relatives?”
“No need to go, tell your mother that the Capet family has already moved out of Leeds, and there is no way to contact them anymore.”
Tu Fu shook his head, and flatly rejected the proposal.
“How can you do this.”
“That’s it, I’ve decided.” Tu Fu’s attitude was unusually calm.
In the impression of the original owner, there are very few memories related to relatives. Before going to the polar regions, Professor Capet would rather give the child to his friends than ask relatives, which is enough to see how bad the relationship with his family is.
All these years, the Winster family raised him with care, and I have never heard of any relative in the family who took the initiative to contact him.
Children of that age are so real that people hate dogs,
It’s too late to avoid it.
Of course, this is their right, so it is also his right not to send invitations to people in that family when he gets married.
“The generation of the Capet family has nothing to do with me. I don’t think we need to find someone from the Capet family for our wedding.” Tu Fu said firmly.
「Okay, then listen to you!」
Sophie kept her mouth shut and didn’t refute. She knew Tu Fu’s temper too well.
Since it is what He determined, even the nine oxen cannot be brought back.
She blinked her curious eyes: “Then my dear Mr. Capet, now the question is, if we don’t do this, where are we going?”
“Distribute the invitations, whether it’s college or university, write letters to friends you know in advance to make sure they can come, and it will add some glory to our wedding.” Tu Fu seriously suggested.
Speaking of it, this is not a trivial matter. It would be nice if the wedding was in Göttinghagen, where Tufu’s network is full, but it could be replaced by Leeds in the remote Osway state.
It is still unknown how many people will be willing to come.
“The matter of posting invitations is indeed very important, why not start now.” Sophie bit her lower lip and thought seriously.
“Don’t worry now, we have one more important thing before that.”
「What is more important?」
“Turn around the main street first.” Tu Fu suddenly gave a ridiculous place name.
「Why Central Street?」
「I heard that the local government built a statue for me, which exists as a city landmark.」
“what?”
Sophie opened her mouth wide after hearing this answer. She is rarely so speechless as she is now.
Tu Fu couldn’t help chuckling, then nodded and said:
“It seems that you don’t like this plan very much, so you can only choose the second plan.”
…
Green District, Leeds.
Crescent Street 64 b.
A series of exquisite dark red brick-connected townhouses stand side by side on this street.
What catches the eye is a two-storey townhouse with a 20-square-meter small
garden. The exterior of the house is decorated with brick red wall paint, and there is a unique black chimney on the top.
Program B is exactly the original Winster family residence.
Actually, Sophie knew the destination when the car walked towards this block.
A few years have passed, and the house has not changed much. It can be seen that the owner cherishes this house very much, and there is no trace of renovation.
Sophie, who came all the way from the train station by car, stood outside the door with a completely bewildered expression.
「What did you bring me here for?」
“Now, let’s go in.” Tu Fu didn’t explain. He pushed aside the guardrail of the small garden and walked forward with big strides. He was about to knock on the door.
“Hey, what are you doing, it is illegal to break into other people’s houses.”
Sophie was taken aback by his actions, and hurriedly grabbed the sleeve of Tufu’s arm to stop him.
This is crazy.
Even though she is already a spiritual doctor of Sequence 6, she has never used her ability to do anything wrong.
“But if I entered my own home, I wouldn’t break the law.”
Tu Fu smiled contemptuously, took out a bunch of keys from his pocket, and after turning a few times in mid-air, he selected one of the keys and opened the door with ease.
The furniture inside is very clean, obviously there are traces of regular maintenance, but the strange thing is that the owner’s house has not been seen for a long time.
After looking around the big house that has been lived in for many years, Tu Fu still felt the familiar feeling when he entered the door. Tu Fu walked to the dining table in the main hall, and there were several strange books on it.
Lift it up and see that it is the real estate title certificate.
As early as when Sophie proposed that she wanted to return to Leeds to get married, He privately entrusted someone to purchase the property privately.
“Miss, starting today, this house officially belongs to you, and how you plan to use it in the future is also your right.”
Tu Fu smiled and handed over the certificate of property rights, in the name of a wedding present.
“God is above.”
Sophie took the certificate of title with her name written on it in disbelief, feeling inexplicably moved throughout her heart.
“Speaking of which, it was not easy. The buyer said that he liked our house very much, and even stated that their family had bought a cemetery nearby, and they would not sell the house no matter what.”
Tu Fu casually mentioned this troublesome matter.
“and then?”
“They took three times the banknotes of the market and moved out very happily,
They moved away overnight together with their cemetery. “
