2109 calm

"Jesus Christ! Are you speaking alien language?"

"If this is the correct answer, it's too inhumane, right? Who is this question? How can this be done? Isn't it anti-human?"

"Wait, you say it again, what? What'mama'? What does this word have to do with 'mother'?"

"Are you sure this word exists, isn't it nonsense?"

"What book are you reading? Have you read the book Matthew, Lanley, too? Is he talking nonsense?"

Twist and bustling, the whole room was complaining, discussing and communicating, filled with unprecedented vitality, and for the hereditary nobles, they were strictly prohibited.

Imagine that those noble manors are always like this, there is no sound in the huge room, and all movements and conversations are ensured to be completed at normal or even minimum volume, walking, eating, sleeping, getting sick, talking, being angry, etc., all of which are all like this, and it is best to be completely silent; then the vast and empty world is not popular at all, and it seems that even the blood has lost its temperature and returns to silence.

But at this moment, the study room in front of me was so noisy, so noisy that it made people feel a little troubled.

But... Arthur was vaguely happy. He only realized that Renly's words had completely opened another window.

In the past, Lan Li was always hiding and escaping, and getting rid of the shackles of the entire Hall family from afar, which made Arthur also have the illusion of "being imprisoned by himself". It seemed that there was no other solution to things except escaping. Only by breaking through the shackles can one truly live out oneself.

Now, they see another possibility of things.

George and Elizabeth have become the "past". They can get rid of the shadows from the previous generation, rebuild a home of their own, reinterpret the meaning of "hereditary aristocrats", and re-demonstrate the style of the upper class, and most importantly, re-expand the lives of the younger generation.

If George and Elizabeth were willing to stay, there was no problem. The Hall family would always have their place. Whether they liked it or not, the family would exist like this; but if they chose to leave, there would be no problem, just like Renly went away from New York, in his own position, he started his own new life, maintaining his bloodlines but maintaining his own independence from each other.

Arthur finally understood that the purpose of Lanley's return to London this time was not to retaliate against George and Elizabeth, but to truly build a home that belongs to "Hall", draw a line, establish a framework, and determine the tone, so that George and Elizabeth can no longer hurt them.

It was like the house in front of us, as if they were in this moment, they were embarking on a brand new journey for the Hall family.

As Renli said, if Arthur became the new "Baron Hall", then he had the right to decide whether the Hall family looked like George or Renli.

"But..." Arthur looked at Renli, looking at the bright smile, his words hesitated.

Lanley turned her head and cast a puzzled look: he couldn't understand Arthur's eyes.

Arthur hesitated for a moment, "What about you?" The subtext is, shouldn't the brand new Hall family be inherited and created by Renli?

This made Renli laugh happily, "Arthur, you have known me on the first day. You should know that I am not the right choice. I was not before, not now, and not in the future."

Lanley really has no idea about becoming the "Baron Hall", and he is also honestly not suitable for him.

"I am a selfish person. I just want to stick to my dreams and happiness. That's all. I have no interest in shouldering the weight of the entire family. So, those burdens can only be left to you or Elf. Edith and I are on the same front, and we are both guys who enjoy the peace of mind."

Lan Li said briskly.

Then Edith caught a tail, and she had no idea what Lanley and Arthur were discussing, but she was very dissatisfied with Lanley's way of expressing it, and complained regardless of it, "Hey, I'm not! No matter what you say, I'm not! I'm definitely not the kind of person you said!"

Ramley did not defend herself, but raised her hands to express her surrender, then turned to look at Arthur, "Then, I will cancel Edith's part. Maybe you can discuss it with her."

Arthur couldn't help but laughed like this, laughing happily, from the bottom of his eyes to the heart, the whole world became alive.

Edith noticed the abnormality and had no time to put on his shoes. She tiptoed barefoot, ran over from the opposite side, jumped onto the sofa between Arthur and Eaton like a Persian cat, and then her eyes rolled, "What the hell are you two talking about?"

"I'm saying that Arthur's charm is really unstoppable. Maybe he should try to enter Hollywood, you know, be another Brad Pitt. Arthur is not at the same level as Chris Hemsworth, and is better than the rest of us. What do you think?"

Lan Li just made a serious mistake, because she was too sincere and too real, so Edith could not tell the difference between reality and reality. Then she looked at Arthur who was smiling brighter and narrowed her eyes slightly, "No, I always feel that it's wrong. What tricks are you two big boys playing? Tell me honestly?"

As he said that, Edith folded his arm and pressed Arthur's thigh with the bones of his elbow. He exerted force suddenly. The severe pain almost made Arthur jump up, "Edise! Don't force me to swear! Edith! You should look for Renley... Ah! God!"

"No! Arthur, we can't call God casually, remember? Courtesy, what about your politeness?" Edith laughed smugly, completely suppressing Arthur with his elbow, making Arthur unable to move. Then Arthur struggled violently, and the two of them seemed to be falling.

Lan Li, who was sitting alone next to her, was completely overjoyed, and she smiled so hard that she was tilting back and forth, as if she had not grown up.

By the way, for the nobles, it is well known that they cannot swear easily; in addition, they cannot call "God" or "Jesus Christ" at will. They cannot use similar interjections that are very common in spoken English, because this is the absence of faith. Most nobles are Catholics, and they use those words casually to express their sighs, which is undoubtedly a sign of inadequacy.

But at this time Arthur didn't care about it at all, "Jesus Christ! Edith Angela Hall! Lanli suggested that you inherit the Baron, Lanli suggested that you inherit the Baron!" Finally, all the words poured out, which made Edith calm down and looked at Lanli with a look of surprise.

Lanli looked towards Edith's gaze with an innocent face, as if asking: Where did this come from?

"Arthur!" Edith immediately reacted: Arthur was lying. But when she was about to put pressure on Arthur again, she had already missed the opportunity.

After Arthur successfully got rid of it, "Lady! This lady! Lanley is the most cunning one. Have you forgotten? We are the same front!" Edith calmed down a little, "Recalling, we are the two of us fighting side by side, you shouldn't aim the gun at mine."

"So..." A long voice appeared next to it, "Why should you join forces to deal with Renli?"

Arthur and Edith turned their heads, and then they saw Matthew's calm expression, sarcastic words; when they turned around, they could see Lan Li's shallow smile, and they were generous and calmly facing their sight, which made the atmosphere suddenly subtle.

"You should know that I welcome you to challenge you at any time." Lanli said slowly, "Now you bully the less. If you add Andre, who is ready to move over there, I will definitely not be your opponent, but... you better pray that you all can be united all the time... I mean, don't be alone."

devil!

"Hey! Lanley! I performed well. I didn't do anything. Don't pull me into the water, okay?" Andre was the first to clear himself away, and just left the sofa and sat down again.

Arthur and Edith exchanged a glance, and finally Arthur shouted, "No matter what! Besides today, when can Renley be defeated? Edith! Go!"

Then Arthur and Edith rushed towards Lanli, but saw Lanli stand up quickly and jumped directly from behind the sofa. The three of them chased each other in the study.

Because the sound was too noisy, Philip couldn't help but come to the entrance of the study. As soon as he opened the door of the room, Renly slipped over. Then Arthur, Edith and Andre also followed him out one after another. Even Eaton joined in the fun, and he was like a child who had not grown up.

Philip stood there helplessly, and then he saw Matthew who was left alone, "Master Matthew, aren't you going to join them?"

"I'm not that stupid." Matthew said calmly.

Philip thought about it carefully, then silently mourned Arthur and others for a moment, turned around and walked towards the restaurant to prepare for dinner.

The whole room was filled with cheerful laughter, breaking the haze and coldness of London, and the milky yellow halo became warmer.

...

Lanley did not continue to ask about Arthur and George's communication, but he only knew the result:

George did not pass on the title of baron to Arthur; while Arthur returned to his daily work. Sisyphus Pictures is still in its inception stage and has countless work, and Arthur and Andre are always busy.

For a long time after that, even though Renley was in London, he had never heard of George or Elizabeth at all. He occasionally learned from Edith that Elizabeth's gallery was starting again and she had declared "independence"; George had no news, nor did he know how his work was going, but it was certain that he did not "disappear" and was still active in the London social circle.

However, the involvement between Lan Li and them has become tomorrow's yellow flower, and no one seems to be willing to mention it anymore.
