[HP] Flower Man Lou
Chapter 39
"Grandpa, you are making fun of me!"
As soon as Simon entered, he heard an angry voice. Looking up, he saw the usually stern-faced Chief Hubbard smiling smugly, and standing beside him was a boy in a long robe. The boy smiled slightly. , but with some fake anger.
"Hahaha, so you did such a thing?!" Patriarch Hubbard was obviously pleased by the boy, and he didn't know what it was?
Simon followed Arnold to Archibald's side, and bowed respectfully to Chief Hubbard: "Chief, did you call me?"
Maxwell stopped laughing, asked Lou to sit next to him, looked at Simon who was standing beside Archibald, tapped the cane on the ground with a serious face: "Well, Simon, you are already in Hubble. The German family has been with the family for 12 years, and they are already adults. Although your surname is not Hubbard, the family has raised you for 12 years. You are also considered half of the Hubbard family. In a few days, you and Lou Let's go to the family quiz together."
"Yes, I will be ready." Simon was ecstatic in his heart. He knew that Mr. Hubbard was back, so he took the family test by himself, and he should recognize himself after the test.However, Simon glanced at the oriental boy sitting next to the patriarch and Mr. Hubbard beside him. Is he the one brought back by Mr. Hubbard?I must let him know that only I will become Mr. Hubbard's successor.
Lou turned a blind eye to Simon's gaze and blinked his eyes lightly. The hostility of this person was probably the child that his father had mentioned before being brought back by his grandfather. He was only brought back in a fit of anger, and he shouldn't have paid much attention to it these years, otherwise, the descendants taught by a family that has stood for hundreds of years would never be like this, even if they are cruel in nature, they would not be full of hostility. on the body surface.
"Grandpa, who is he?" Lou poured Maxwell a cup of clear tea. It is good for the elderly to drink some clear tea, and this tea is Mingqian Longjing, produced in Shifeng, which Alvin brought back when he went to the east to expand his business this year. best.
Maxwell picked up the teacup, the soup in the cup was green and bright, and a fresh fragrance rushed into his nose. Maxwell took a sip in satisfaction. It had been a long time since he had drunk such a good Longjing. I also like oriental teas, so it's not a bad thing that Lou is an oriental.
"He is Simon Clarke, the grandson of an old friend of mine. After a few days, he will also go to take the family test, so he can have someone to accompany you."
"Understood, Grandpa, I thought it was just me." Lou glanced at Simon sympathetically, his grandfather's attitude towards him was really... just to say that he is not a descendant of the Hubbard family, so he abused him casually. .
Lou shook his head inwardly. He never really hurt himself or the people he cared about, and there was no need to be too harsh on him. He is inferior, but he really has no desire to fight against someone who is younger than him, and he wants to have a duel with the refined children of the Hubbard family.
"You came back late. This year's family test has already started, otherwise you would not have taken it alone." Maxwell glanced at the excited Simon, and suddenly felt that even if Simon also participated, it seemed that he would not be able to get up. What is the effect? Although I am quite satisfied with Lou, I don't want him to pass the family test easily. Now it seems that Simon will not pose a threat to Lou at all.
Simon didn't think much about it, he only knew that he could finally take the family test, and when he passed the test, he would officially become Mr. Hubbard's adopted son and have the right to inherit the Hubbard family.As for that boy, even if you call him Grandpa now, sooner or later you will get out of the Hubbard family.
Archibald glanced at Simon with a sinister face, and raised one corner of his mouth ironically. He didn't know how the old man would bring such an idiot back. Even if he recognized him at that time, he probably would not have seen him In the eyes, embarrassing.He is not as caring as Lou at all, and he has not even said hello since he came in. If he would recognize him, he would be a ghost.
"Old man, don't make it sound like the baby is back, you will let him take the test for ordinary children." Regardless of whether the old man likes Lou or not, he will not let him pass the family test easily with his appearance, and he will definitely increase the difficulty.
Maxwell ignored Archibald, and only said to the building: "Go back and have a good night's rest, let Archie take you out tomorrow, you have never been to Italy, go and see what is different from England the same."
"Okay, Grandpa, if I hadn't been in school all the time, I would also like to go out and broaden my horizons." Lou Buwu said regretfully.
"En." Maxwell turned to Simon, "Go back and prepare well, and I will notify you in a few days."
Simon hurriedly bowed and replied with irrepressible excitement in his voice: "Yes, I will."
"Okay, let's go back." Maxwell motioned to Arnold to take Simon out, then turned his head and said to Lou Wen, "I heard that Archie had someone redecorate the room at that time, you go Have you seen it? If you don’t like it, you can change it, after all, it’s where you live, and you can only live comfortably with your own heart.”
Lou nodded and smiled at his father: "Grandpa, my father has arranged everything very well, and I like it very much. I already know where you live, and when I go to bother you, you can't drive me away."
Maxwell smiled heartily: "Okay, I won't rush you, it's getting late, go to rest."
"Okay, you go to bed early too." Lou stood up, said good night to Maxwell, and followed Archibald back.
"Let's go, old man."
Simon knew that Chief Hubbard liked that Eastern boy very much now, but after all, he had been in the Hubbard family for so long, so he had an advantage over him. Chief Hubbard had never allowed himself to take the test, probably to arrange for himself and his At the same time, it is estimated that two people must compete with each other, so that the patriarch and elders can see which of the two is more suitable to enter the Hubbard family.
If Simon knew that Lou's surname was Hubbard now, maybe he wouldn't think so. Maxwell arranged for them to be together purely to make the test more difficult for Lou. He wanted to see what Lou could achieve. degree.
Lou followed Archibald back to the room, took his salute to his room next door, said goodnight to Archibald and went back to the room.
General Lou tidied things up one by one, took out his phone, and when he heard Sev's message, he called him back.At this moment, Severus was perfecting his custom-made herbal collection plan, when he heard the phone ring, knowing that it was Lou calling for him, he quickly picked it up.
"Lou, good evening." Severus' low and silky voice came through the microphone, making the smile in Lou's eyes even stronger.
"Good evening, Sev. How's it going over there?" Lou stood in front of the window, looking at the quiet night scene outside, in a very good mood.
"Very well, Uncle Archibald has made very thoughtful arrangements. How about the Hubbard family, are you still getting used to it?" Sif put down the pen in his hand with a happy expression.
"Well, I'm fine. Chief Hubbard, that is, father's father, he treats me well. I believe that he must have investigated me very early, otherwise he wouldn't be so gentle to me." Lou thought of himself According to the obtained information, Patriarch Hubbard is a serious and demanding person, and he will not easily approve of anyone.
Sev narrowed his eyes, investigating the building!
"As long as they don't hurt you."
"No, you plan to collect potions for a few days, right?"
"Well, I found a few good places. When you come out of the Hubbard family, I'll take you to have a look."
"Okay, it's getting late, you go to rest. Don't always stay up all night for the potion." Lou remembered that every time Sif stayed up all night to brew the potion, he would have a headache, but he didn't It's so annoying to him, I can only remind him every time.
"Okay, good night." Sif looked at the time, and it turned out that it was almost 10 o'clock.
"Good night." Lou thought for a while and still didn't tell Sif that he would go out tomorrow, so let him surprise him then.
A good night's sleep.
The next day, Lou and Archibald went to say good morning to Maxwell, and then drove out of the manor.Archibald hadn't come back for a long time, and he planned to visit some friends. Lou planned to follow Archibald to Field's house, and then go to Sif from there. He heard that the current heir of Field's family was his father's friend.
Tai Lun went to the Field's house with her eldest brother today, because the little princess of the Field's family had her birthday today, and there was only one girl in the three generations of the Field's family, so the whole family really raised her as a princess.
Tyron was sitting in the corner, and the eldest brother had already gone to have a friendly exchange with Anthony, the next heir of the Field family.He could only sit here bored by himself, looking at the crowd in the venue, Tai Lun lowered his head again, like this every year, it's really boring.
When Lou followed Archibald into Field Manor, he saw a lot of foreign vehicles.Archibald also blinked suspiciously, maybe it just happened to happen that Field's family had a banquet, what a bad luck!
"Father?"
"It's nothing, let's go." Archibald stopped the car. Although Field Manor is not as spacious as Hubbard Manor, compared with the calm atmosphere of Hubbard Manor, Field Manor is more exquisite and gorgeous.
The servant didn't recognize Archibald, but seeing that he was very familiar with Field Manor, although he didn't see the invitation card, he still stopped him with a smile on his face, explaining gently that he couldn't enter without an invitation card.
Without waiting for Archibald to say anything, a middle-aged man walked over quickly and bowed to Archibald: "Mr. Hubbard, if the young master knows that you are here, you will be very happy, please hurry up Enter."
Archibald waved his hand: "Okay, after all these years, your face still hasn't changed, where is Anthony?"
"Mr. Hubbard and this little gentleman, follow me. The young master is in the banquet hall. Today is the lady's birthday." The middle-aged man led Archibald and Lou to the direction of the banquet hall. Mr. Hubbard After coming back from England, it’s fine for the Fields’ family not to know about it. Now that people have come, but there is no invitation to let outsiders know about it, it’s hard to avoid feeling that the Fields’ family is not considerate.
Archibald was stunned, oh, it turned out to be the birthday of his little princess, no wonder there were so many people.But he didn't seem to bring any presents. Thinking of this, Archibald's face froze.
Lou smiled at the middle-aged man, and saw a trace of stiffness flashing across his father's face, and quickly pulled Archibald with an apologetic expression: "Father, I forgot to take the present out of the car." He turned his head and smiled embarrassedly at the middle-aged man, "I'm sorry, my father and I just came back from England, and we haven't had time to tell the outside world. It's not appropriate to come here without an invitation, so my father prepared for Miss Field. A present from England, Father?"
Archibald nodded following Lou's words, he knew that his son had a way to take out the gift: "It's not a big deal, go get it."
The middle-aged man quickly nodded and smiled at Lou: "So it's Young Master Hubbard, there's nothing to be sorry about."
Lou smiled apologetically, walked to the car, opened the door, and took out a wooden box that was originally in his pocket. It was carved together with the one given to his grandfather, but this one was a plain lily. , inside is an exquisite headdress, which was originally intended for Lily, but later there was a more suitable gift, so this one was not sent out.
It is also a coincidence that I will bring it today. When I went to Lily's wedding, I wore this robe.
Lou restored the box to its normal size, took it back and handed it to Archibald, who took it and handed it to the middle-aged man before going back to the banquet hall.
The author has something to say: Soon Simon will know what it means to cheat a teammate, and it’s not right, Tai Lun and him are not teammates! !
As soon as Simon entered, he heard an angry voice. Looking up, he saw the usually stern-faced Chief Hubbard smiling smugly, and standing beside him was a boy in a long robe. The boy smiled slightly. , but with some fake anger.
