Age of the Titanic Wasn't an Issue

Early mornings in the Southampton countryside are still, with a mist hanging over fields and roads.The farthest you can see is a distance of 50 meters.It's already March now, and all the things that need to be planted have been planted, but the time has not yet come for those that have not been planted.So there are no people in this field.

This silence does not belong to Booker's special estate.The servants in the manor were all standing in the courtyard, and there were many people standing in the hall where Mr. Bucket's body was placed.

There were the pastor who washed Mr. Bukett, mother and daughter Lucy, Karl Hawkley, and the Countess Ross who just rushed over yesterday evening.The others are distant relatives of Mr. Bucket.

After the pastor was ready, some servants came in and put Mr. Buckett into the coffin.Starting with Lushi, go over and put down a chrysanthemum, and then Rose, come and put down the chrysanthemum in turn.

Then the pastor greeted the servants and closed the coffin.Then carried them into the prepared carriage.

Lu Shi followed and got into the carriage.

When we arrived at the family cemetery, everyone got out of the carriage.The four servants carried the coffin again to the cemetery prepared for Bukett.

At this time, Rose supported Lu Shi, and the sand covered Bucket's coffin.Rose couldn't help crying, clutching her handkerchief, "Oh, Mom, from now on there will only be the two of us, and Dad is really gone. Really gone."

Lu Shi is also covering her eyes with a veil now, and then said to Rose: "Rose, we two are dependent on each other, you must be happy, dear, don't worry. I have helped Rose Ruth has found someone she loves, and Carl is really a very nice person, very tolerant of Rose." Lushi wiped her veil, shed tears, and whispered to Mr. Bucket's coffin .

After the funeral was over, Lu Shi got into the carriage under the comfort of Countess Ross.

"How is it? Lucy, did Karl bring the money? It's only two days away. If you don't get the money, then you should know the consequences." Countess Ross After thinking about it, he said to Lu Shi.

"I've been busy with the funeral these days, so I don't have time to mention it. I'll talk to Carl when I get home. It will take some time to prepare such a large sum of money." Lu Shi said to Countess Ross .

"It's good like this, then have you thought about how you will live in the future. Now the factory is going to be given to the Royal Bank of England, and the two estates are mortgaged to Karl. You have to live, even if you don't go to those dances every day , but the Hawkley family is one of the best families in the United States. As an in-law, you must show up." Countess Ross asked Lushi.

Lu Shi glanced at Countess Ross, and felt that there was something in her words.However, this calculation always requires one not to pay attention, so let's see what she means.

"I'm just a widow. If I want, I can wear these clothes all the time. It doesn't cost much." Lushi pulled the black dress on her body and said to Countess Ross.

Countess Ross was very surprised when she heard this. "Lushi, don't tell me, are you living so reclusively? You have to know how old you are, only 36. This is a great age, and it's the right time. You and Rose are like sisters when you go out together. .It is that Carl is 27 years old now, and there is only a nine-year gap between you. Don't you want to find another one?"

After hearing this, Lu Shi didn't know what to say.Since her husband had just been buried, someone told her to remarry. "Okay, Countess Ross, don't say any more, Charlie just left, I'm sad, how can you say such a thing. I don't have that thought now, so don't say any more. Besides, what's the point , this Carl is a little older than Rose, so he can feel sorry for others."

Seeing Lu Shi's resolute expression, Countess Luo Shi stopped persuading her.Too much persuasion makes people think that he has ulterior motives, women, especially mature women, how can they have less men, and when this Lushi figured it out later, she will definitely come to find her.

Back at the Buckett family's manor, those relatives bid farewell to Lushi and left.

Only Lucy, mother and daughter, Carl, and the overzealous Countess Rose remained.

"Carl, I have something to discuss with you. Let's go to the living room. Rose and the Countess Rose can also come." After Lushi said that, she walked towards the living room first.

After all four people were seated, Judy came and served milk tea and snacks and went out.

Lu Shi picked up the teacup and blew on it, and then said: "Carl, there are only two days before the usury comes to collect the debt. Look at the fifty thousand pounds..."

Carl knew what Lu Shi hadn't finished, so he smiled and said, "Lu Shi, don't worry, I have a cash check from Citibank of the United States, which can be signed at any time. Don't worry." He took out a checkbook.

Lu Shi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her, and immediately said to Carl with a smile: "Since this is the case, the day after tomorrow, after paying off the usury money, let's transfer the ownership of my two manors. Owe The taste of money is really uncomfortable. Find another day to go to the Royal Bank of England to settle the mortgage of the factory. If you are interested in this factory, Carl, you can take over it, otherwise I will just give it to the bank Bar."

"Lushi doesn't need to be so anxious. You can keep this manor. Really, it's just the pocket money I gave you at that time. I will ask Lai Fujie to investigate the matter of the factory. If it is a good factory, Then I will consider changing the debt and continue to operate." Carl knew that Lushi was a person with clear accounts, and if he didn't agree, he might not let Rose continue to associate with him.

After hearing this, Lu Shi nodded in satisfaction.I will let go of the burden in my heart.Find another time to sell the shares of Baixing Company, then you will be able to live with money.

"Trouble you, Karl, well, I have nothing to do here. You'd better go out with Rose and have a good time. You don't have to accompany us anymore. Countess Rose and I can talk together Yes." Seeing that the money problem was solved, Lu Shi drove Kar Rose and the others out.

Carl was dying to be able to go out and date Rose.He led Rose out.

"Okay, the problem is solved, and you can breathe a sigh of relief. I will go back in the afternoon." Countess Ross said to Lu Shi with a smile.

"Yeah, I really want to thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to know this Karl." Lu Shi smiled and said to Countess Rose.

"Why are you polite, we are friends." Countess Ross said indifferently.
