C35 An Old Matter Had Been Discovered in the British Manor
It was early summer when Wang Nanyuan lived in Lian Rui Village in Nanxi, China. It was already noon and it was hot. However, in the early morning of Ward Manor, thousands of miles away in the middle of England, the weather suddenly changed. A gust of cold air blew over, as if it was still the cold early spring.
When Wang Nanyuan was being shouted at the top of his lungs by the postman early in the morning to receive international emails outside the door of the nine rooms, the young lady on the other side of the earth, Alice, had just fallen asleep. She didn't know if the 90-year-old great-grandfather, Mr. Edward, would scold Mrs. Burns again tomorrow morning, who was willing to volunteer at the manor. Because in Mr. Award's heart, his great-grandfather. . . Anyone who came to work at the lower floor of the Ward Manor, regardless of whether they were appointed by the government or were willing to come to the traditional manor, which had become one of the "national symbols" in England, as long as they worked there, they would become volunteers. They had to strictly follow the old rules of Ward Manor and Ward Family. Although the changes in the era had changed many of the old rules for Mr. Alward. However, he had always stubbornly refused to change the rule of the maid going upstairs to start a fire. Because he felt that this was the silent spirit of romanticism and cultural heritage of the British Manor. Unfortunately, At dawn this morning, Mrs. Burns overslept again. Still, she didn't light the fireplace in Mr. Alward's bedroom before dawn.
In the traditional British manors, the early nobles and servants had a very close relationship. It felt like the Ladyship, the maidservants, the Mistress, and the servant in our country's palace drama. In the 17th and 18th century, along with the change in concept, The nobles in the manor paid more attention to their own privacy. In terms of the design of the manor, Some of the manors moved the servants' area from the basement to the wings or back of the main building. During that time, the manor owner liked to come and go without a trace. It was best to only appear when they needed it. For example. . . The maid who lit the fire took advantage of the time when the owner was sleeping to enter the bedroom to light the fireplace and quietly slip away, creating a false impression that the fireplace would light up by itself in the morning. Everyone else felt that Mr. Alward was old-fashioned and stubborn. It seemed that he was still living in the Middle Ages, but. . . Alice had always felt that her great-grandfather's strange and stubborn behavior was very easy to understand, because she knew. . . Her great-grandfather was different from the other heirs of other manors. Mr. Edward and this Wharton manor had many mysteries.
As one of the famous manors of England, Wharton's manor was almost unable to escape the fate of being 'forced' to be demolished. Mr. Alward had once told his favorite granddaughter, Alice, that after World War II, The entire British society was in shambles, not just the economy. . . The entire social relationship needed to be completely rebuilt. The ordinary citizens who had made great contributions to the country during the war had the right to enjoy more rights and rights. Hence, the tens of thousands of British manors. . . For grandsons who have lost their power and had no money, it was a huge burden left behind by their ancestors. They wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible. To the people, it was nothing more than a dead house. It could not be eaten or used, and it had no contribution to society. What was the big deal about destroying it? Since 1900, Just England alone had 1,200 manors demolished; 1950, the rate at which the manors were demolished reached the highest in history. Every five days, a manors in England disappeared from the world.
But Wharton's manor was different. Because the owner of this manor was a famous missionary from the last century, after the end of their religious journey in China. . . After returning to England, he brought countless treasures from the east. In that famous movement of "tearing down the manor," the British government. . . It turned Wharton's manor into a museum. However, because all of the treasures in the manor belonged to the Wharton family, Thus, the legal heir of Wharton Manor, who was still healthy and healthy, and the legendary Edward, who was born and raised in China, was specially invited to be the director of the museum. Not only did they allow the Wharton family to continue living in the manor, but they also arranged for many volunteers to serve this ancient manor, which had a legendary story and a priceless treasure. And so. . . As the new generation of the Wharton family, Alice would often come to the manor. She would accompany her great-grandfather.
As expected, on this weekend morning, Alice heard that Alward's great-grandfather was once again angry with Mrs Burns. Alice took the tray of milk and bread from Mrs Burns and went to her great-grandfather's bedroom.
Mr. Alward was not angry when he saw that it was Alice who brought him breakfast. Everyone in the family. . . His favorite and most trusted daughter was this great-granddaughter. Because he firmly believed in this fairy-like great-granddaughter. There was a mysterious power that allowed him to stay in this ancient castle. He crossed time and space and returned to China thousands of miles away. He returned to the city of Baiu, where he was raised by a magical craftsman. It allowed him to look back at the mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas 70 years ago.
As expected, he believed that God was extremely kind to him. In England, Alice had actually brought him the descendant of the City of Ou Craftsman that he had dreamt of. This descendant would have an inextricable fate with him and his Wharton manor. This person was Wang Nanyuan!
Mr. Alward never would have thought that he would carry a mysterious oath with him. After 70 years after leaving China, God entrusted this oath to a young man. And miraculously made him Alice's classmate and lover. Just like that, in her first love, Alice brought this young man, who was shrouded in a mysterious halo, to Wharton Manor. Mr. Edward finally understood: the time to end the oath was coming! Was the group of craftsmen in the small city on the other side of the earth still carrying the noblest hearts of the craftsmen in the world? Did they still inherit the world's best craftsmanship? He firmly believed that God had sent this young man to announce all of this.
But now, Mr. Alward was in big trouble, and the president of the Blackstone Group, Mr. Harry, who had been watching him for decades, appeared again. For many years, Harry had been staring at the priceless treasures brought from China in Wharton Manor. This time. . . Harry had come personally to say that the real deal was coming to an end! That scoundrel, Harry's father, Old Harry, would never let him go. A few decades ago. . . Old Harry had pretended to help the Wharton family keep the manor, and had cheated Alward of his trust. He had signed an agreement with him to share the treasures of China with the rogue bandits, and now. . . Last weekend, Mr. Alward hurriedly called Alice to Wharton Manor and sent a list to Alice's first love, Wang Nanyuan, who was far away in China. That list was actually the list of the list of "Oubao" that Wang Nanyuan had been dreaming of 70 years ago when the top craftsman of China was brought to England!
This morning, Mr. Edward once again explained in detail the relationship between Wharton Manor and the craftsman of China to Alice.
At the end of the last century, as the second son of the Wharton family. . . Mr. Aiwa's father, Mr. Lewis, was in his early twenties at the beginning of 1890. He floated across the sea alone and arrived at Baiu City in the south of China, near the shore of the Oral River. At this moment, Baiu City had only opened for about 10 years. The westerners had long been paying attention to this magnificent port city with a mild climate. The English newspaper, Beijing News, published an article introducing Baiu City in 1869 and 1876.
Even Huashi used to be a doctor in the United Kingdom's Manhattan, but he was a devout Christian. One day, he read in the magazine a revelation about the recruitment of volunteers by the Society of Dao. He decided to go to this magical but sealed eastern country to pass on the Gospel. Many years later, a young British lady who loved him followed him to Baiu City in southern China. Become husband and wife. The husband and wife planted their roots in Baiu City and gave birth to children. They stayed for 35 years.
Mr. Lian Huashi's son had grown up in Baiu City. He named this child "Aiwa," which meant that he loved Zhonghua. At such an old age, God had given him such a cute son in China. . .
Alice widened her eyes and looked at her great-grandfather, who was looking far away, as if he wanted to see through 70 years of time, back to that era, back to the place called Baiu City in the south of China 70 years ago. . .
