Rebirth in America: Great Slave Owner

The latest website: The return voyage is still to take the boat to London, and then reverse the boat to New Orleans, but as soon as they got off the boat, Bai Min frowned and asked Tangning, "Sir, is this the capital of the British Empire, London?"

Tangning nodded and replied, "Yes, how do you feel?"

Bai Min hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and replied, "To be honest, it doesn't feel very good, because the smoke here is too much!"

"This is normal, after all, another name for London is Fog City!" In fact, London at this time can almost be said to be the worst time for the city's image. The sky is thick smoke from factory chimneys, and the ground is horse dung. Even the Thames is full of pollutants...

Just as Tangning was feeling emotional, a pretty young woman in her thirties suddenly rushed over from the street corner, grabbed him and started talking excitedly.

The reason why she had to describe it this way was because Tangning couldn't understand what she was saying, but it felt like it was French.

At this moment, Heidi frowned and asked Tangning, "Tony, do you know this lady?"

Tangning hurriedly shook her head, "How did I know her, this is the first time I saw her today!"

"Then why is she holding on to you?" Heidi asked.

Tangning replied with a depressed expression, "How would I know, maybe she's a lunatic?"

"Even if she's a lunatic, why don't you arrest others, but arrest you?" Heidi asked.

Just when Tangning was worried about how to explain, another girl dressed as a maid came running from the corner of the street. Seeing Tangning, she was stunned for a moment, then she slowed down, first holding the young woman, and then apologizing to Tangning, "I'm sorry, sir, There is something wrong with my lady here!"

Tangning tidied up her clothes before replying angrily, "It's okay, but since your young lady is ill, you have to take good care of her. It's okay to pester me just now, but what if you encounter a carriage!"

"Yes, yes, yes, sir, you are right!" The maid nodded again and again, then hesitated, and asked tentatively, "Sir, can I ask, is your surname Pi Shang?"

Tangning shook her head and replied, "My name is Tony-Tangning, and I don't know Mr. Pi Shang!"

"Oh, I'm sorry to disturb you!" After saying that, the maid supported the young woman and left.

Because there was no ship to New Orleans that day, the three needed to stay in London for a few days. But not long after the three of them stayed at the hotel, suddenly a middle-aged man dressed as a butler came to visit, "Hello, you are Tony - Mr. Tangning, right?"

Tangning nodded and replied, "Yes, I am. May I ask who you are?"

"Oh, that's right, the one who harassed you just now is Miss Adele from our family. Originally, my master wanted to come to the door and apologize to you in person, but his health is not very good, so I want to trouble you to come to the house, we have prepared Well, a grand dinner to thank you!" the butler explained.

"No need, it's not a big deal!" Tangning waved her hand.

But the housekeeper insisted, "Mr. Tangning, please be sure to visit once!"

Seeing that Tangning still didn't want to go, the housekeeper took a step closer and said in a low voice, "Mr. Tangning, my master's name is Victor Hugo!"

"Victor--Hugo, shouldn't you be talking about..."

Before Tangning could finish her sentence, the housekeeper nodded, "Yes, it's my husband!"

Tangning thought for a while and thought it was right, because Hugo should be in London at this time, but he was kicked out of Paris by Napoleon III, but he didn't know if the Paris Commune movement would happen again after a while. Will the old man take the opportunity to go back...

But no matter what, Tangning didn't want to miss the chance to meet one of the greatest writers at the moment, so she immediately found her most luxurious and solemn clothes, and after she was dressed neatly, she followed the housekeeper to Hugo's house. London apartment.

As soon as I met Tangning, I was sure that this was indeed Mr. Hugo, the great writer, because he looked very similar to the portrait hanging in the school...

Just as Tangning was full of thoughts, Hugo said, "Mr. Tangning, today my daughter Adele was too reckless and scared you. I'm here to apologize for her!"

Hearing the name "Adele" again, Tangning's mind suddenly flashed and she understood what was going on. Even though Mr. Hugo had made great achievements in literature, his family life was very unfortunate. , He has only two daughters in total, the eldest daughter Leopoldina drowned with her husband on their honeymoon, and the youngest daughter, Adele whom Monet saw yesterday, lived a long time, living to 85 years old, but has been crazy for forty years, and now although not crazy, but almost...

And the reason for her madness is related to the "Pichan" mentioned by the maid before. By chance, Adele met Lieutenant Pichan, and then fell in love with him. Pichan is not entirely a scumbag. After dating for a while, he clearly told Adele that he did not want to marry her and left her voluntarily, but Adele did not change his infatuation, and chased Pishan all the way from Halifax to Barbad to Canada, and used the All kinds of methods were used, but they were all ineffective. Even Pichan was married. Adele, who couldn't stand the blow, became mentally ill, so she was taken back to London by her old father. The dock saw Tangning who looked exactly like Pi Shang.

Just as Monet sighed inwardly, Mr. Hugo said, "That's why I invited you, Mr. Tangning, to apologize to you in person and to ask for your help!"

Tangning, who had been poisoned by all kinds of **** TV shows and poisoned before the time traveled, had a bad idea in her mind: "Wait a minute Mr. Hugo~www.readwn.com~ You shouldn't let me pretend to be that lieutenant Pishang, right? ?"

Hugo laughed dumbly and said, "Of course not, in fact, I just want to trouble Mr. Tangning to help you paint a painting! To be precise, it is to paint the wedding of Adele and Lieutenant Pichan, which is what Adele has always done. I wish, but I can't trouble Lieutenant Pichan to come from far away Canada, so I want to trouble Mr. Tangning to be his stand-in and help complete this painting!"

Tangning nodded and replied, "Oh, so, that's not a problem, but I'm going to New Orleans on the Viscount Swift three days later, so the time is right..."

"It was a little nervous at that time because Bruce was in Birmingham now, and even if he came back now, it would be a little too late," Hugo said with a frown.

Tangning thought for a while, then suggested, "Mr. Hugo, if you can trust me, how about I help you paint this painting? Self-portrait is what I'm good at!"
