[HP] Flower Man Lou

"Master, Master Snape, I'm going out first, if you have something to do, you can ring the bell, and I will come right away." Rosie put down the milk in his hand, bowed to Hua Manlou and Severus.

"Okay, Rosie." Hua Manlou nodded to Rosie, watched Rosie turn and leave, closed the door, and pulled Severus to sit on the small hanging chair by the window, "Severus, let me carefully Observed, adoptive father, I mean Mr. Hubbard, he is a real gentleman, I think as long as we don't do dangerous things or make too much noise, he will not interfere with us, of course we still have to be careful , this small study can be regarded as a safe place for the time being."

"Well. If you can really be sure that it's safe here, then I think I need to tell you something, something about why we are different. Of course, it must be in absolute safety. If it doesn't work here, we can warehouse there Say. This matter is very serious." Severus looked at Hua Manlou's expression that was much more relaxed than usual, and he raised his vigilance again.

Hua Manlou was surprised at what Severus said. Regarding that power, this is really a problem that cannot be ignored. If you know more, you will be more sure about it. "I think we can wait two days to go to the warehouse and talk about it. Here, I don't feel too relieved. Well, Sev, I didn't want to discuss such a serious topic with you today. I just invited you to play today. Look over there, my adoptive father and I searched many places before we found that guqin, an oriental qin, Sif, do you want to hear me play the qin?"

"Okay." Severus listened to the melodious piano music, thinking that he never knew that Lou could play the piano, but in the past even if Lou wanted to play, there was no condition. When he has the ability, he can go to the east to find one for Lou. better one.

Hua Manlou put down the books in his hands. The new language makes it very difficult for him to read now. It takes only a few hours to finish reading a few pages. It seems that he needs to strengthen his practice in this area, and his own Liuyun Feixiu is not very convenient here, maybe I can ask my adoptive father to find someone to make a few sets of oriental clothes, but I have never let go of hearing the sound, but this world is a bit different from the original world. Once you get used to it, there is no problem.

It seems that I need to confess some things about myself to my adoptive father. After all, I will live with him for a long time to come, and I will be exposed sooner or later.And I need a teacher, not only to teach knowledge, but also to teach me many things in the world today, the world is too big, I can't change it, I can only adapt.

Hua Manlou knocked on the door of Archibald's study, "Father, are you in?"

"Please come in."

Hua Manlou gently pushed the door open, walked in, and closed the door casually. "Father, I need to talk to you, do you have time?"

Archibald looked at the boy who walked in, and raised the corners of his mouth, "Of course, dear. I have time to talk to you anytime. Come on, sit down, what do you want to say to me?"

Hua Manlou sat across from Archibald, staring at Archibald with her out-of-focus eyes. "Sir...well, I mean, adoptive father, since we're all going to be living together, I want to be honest with you about me, and I want to know something about you. I want us to Being able to get along is more enjoyable, and, as we get along with each other, we will know these things one day, so knowing in advance will help us understand each other better, isn't it?" Hua Manlou thought for a while, and still bluntly expressed his Having said that, I am only an eight-year-old child now, so there is no need to act too mature, a little bit like a child may have greater gains.

"Oh! Of course, that's what I've always hoped for." Archibald looked at the child [pretentiously calm] opposite him. Although he was calmer and smarter than normal children, he was still flustered when facing an adult. , but that's right, if he is really completely calm, then he will have to re-evaluate this child.

Huamanlou didn't know that he had really counted on Archibald's idea. He just thought that acting like a child might be a little troublesome, but he could use the child as an excuse to get more conditions that were conducive to his own growth.

"It seems that I have the same idea as my adoptive father, so can I know something about my adoptive father first?" Hua Manlou tried his best to act as if he wanted to gain some confidence for himself.

"Of course. You're a child, that's what you should be. Hehe... Well, the Hubbard family is a big family. The family is located in Italy. Big families always have all kinds of troubles, so I left the family temporarily. And I adopted you, which is also a condition for leaving the family. I need to take you back ten years later, that is, when you become an adult, you will need to participate in the family trial. If you pass successfully, then you can stay in Hubbard My family. Let me tell you that my father arranged for another child for me, but I don't like him very much."

"Why do you want to adopt a child, why not your own child?" Hua Manlou was a little puzzled. No matter how you look at it, it is her own child who has higher loyalty and belief in the family.

"Well... it's a special case, I won't have my own child, you can understand that." Archibald was a little depressed thinking about why he wanted to adopt a child, oh... I don't want a child It's just a shame to know that I can't have a baby of my own because I was on the wrong medicine. "Then, dear, you can tell me what you want to say."

"Okay. I'm an oriental person. I think you know that in May 1966, in a country in the east, something happened in China. My family was persecuted. In the end, only one servant took me across the sea with difficulty. When I arrived in England, I was having a fever and I was not sober. I didn’t know where the servant had gone. I heard from the headmaster that I was the only one lying at the entrance of the orphanage, and the headmaster took me in.” Huaman Lou rationalized her thoughts. She once heard the director say that the director of another orphanage she knew once adopted a child from China, and China, the country that sounds like the future of the Ming Dynasty, 5 A country whose history a few years ago was very similar to the dynasty I belonged to had a movement to persecute literati in 300. In this way, even if Archibald wanted to investigate, it shouldn’t be too much difference. If there is any difference In other places, just say that you are young and don't remember many things clearly.

"Oh? Suffering persecution?" Archibald didn't quite know whether what the boy said was true. You can check these things. "Then may I know why?"

"In fact, I don't know much. My parents didn't tell me much. I just remember that many people like my family suffered misfortune that year. Oh...my father is a famous scholar, and my family is in the south of the Yangtze River." Flower Man Lou lowered his head and spoke in a low voice, as if he was missing something.

"Honey, it's over. We have to look forward, don't we?" In Archibald's view, the boy's voice was no longer deep, and it felt like he was about to cry.Oh... a child, a child who has suffered misfortune, Archibald thinks that even if this is not the whole truth, this boy should not have lied, he does not believe that an eight-year-old child can tell such a truthful lie.

"Yes, sir...uh, adoptive father, I will get familiar with this title as soon as possible." Hua Manlou raised his head and showed a small smile.

.........

Hua Manlou was very satisfied with this conversation. She took this opportunity to ask for a teacher who taught English and a teacher who taught Chinese knowledge.

The author has something to say: the general background is almost explained, and soon we can enter the real plot.
