When handsome guy Lan San helped little Lolita deliver gifts back to Plum Village, Le's father Zhou Qiufeng didn't tell him about the news that his natal brother was getting married, and he didn't mention it to Little Cotton Jacket when he called.
Therefore, Little Le Xiao’s classmate did not know that Grandma Zhou’s family was holding a wedding event on New Year’s Day. She, her beautiful brother, and Sister Fu took a direct flight to Country F.
The time difference between country F and China is also 7 hours in winter. The plane of the three brothers and sisters took off in the morning of China, and it was still noon on the 3rd when they arrived at the capital of country F.
After entering the country, the three Chao brothers and sisters took a bus from the airport to the city and checked into the Clion Hotel where the World Ladies Ball was held not long ago.
The brother and sister from the East checked in, and the waiter informed the Howard family as promised. Winston was so happy when he received the call from the hotel that he immediately sent his youngest son Alex to the hotel to pick up the young doctor and her brother and sister.
Half an hour later, Alex took the family bodyguards to the hotel to pick up the three Chao brothers and sisters to the Howard family's private residence.
The Howard family came to invite them sincerely. Le Xiaoxiao did not show any pretense. He went to Howard's house with his brother and sister and did not check out the hotel room. After attending the banquet, they planned to spend a day or two in the capital of country F.
The Howard family sent two classic Bugattis to the hotel to pick them up. They were both two-seater. Alex and the doctor rode in one, and the beautiful boy and Miss Chao Er rode in one.
It takes about fifteen minutes by car to arrive at the Howard family's private castle.
The Howard family has a private castle in the capital of country F, and a large manor outside the city. The family will hold a birthday party for the little princess Laura in the private castle. Winston and his family members will also spend New Year's Day in the castle.
In order to celebrate the recovery of the little princess Laura, the Howard family attached great importance to the birthday party and decorated the castle. Every place where flowers could be placed was filled with precious flowers and plants.
The Howard family's castle is very old, somewhat similar to a monastery. It is made up of several buildings, with a huge courtyard in the middle and one building facing the river.
Its location is not far from the Iron Tower in the capital of country F. The iron tower can be seen from the upper floors of every building.
Bugatti passed through the arched door of a building, entered the inner courtyard garden, and then stopped along the road until he reached the most exquisite white marble building.
A large group of people stood in front of the marble palace-style building. The men were all wearing tuxedos, bow ties, and bowler hats. The women were all wearing formal dresses, fur shawls, and feathered hats.
The head of the Howard family, Winston's eldest brother Valls, and the quasi-heir of the Howard family, Valls' eldest son Julian, were standing in the middle of the front row holding their little baby Laura. They stood on either side.
With Winston, Frank and other important personnel.
The bodyguards and domestic servants of the Howard family lined up in two long lines, waiting like guards to welcome the distinguished guests.
The Bugatti stopped in front of two rows of people. The bodyguards stepped forward to help open the door. When they saw Master Alex inviting out the doctor and her brothers and sisters, the bodyguards and domestic servants bent down and moved in unison.
Alex led the three distinguished guests through two groups of guard-like personnel and towards the family members who were waiting for the guests.
The beautiful boy and Miss Chao Er wore modern clothes and a rabbit fur cloak with a fur collar. Mr. Le Xiao wore a narrow-sleeved Hanfu and a white fox fur cloak. His hair was combed into a bun with only a single hairpin.
Plum blossom hairpin with hanging beads.
The three brother and sister's cloaks are all made of bright red satin, and are embroidered with different patterns.
The members of the Howard family looked at the doctor and her brothers and sisters approaching with bright eyes. The cloaks of the doctor and her family were very beautiful!
The doctor lady has the cutest hairstyle!
Everyone watched the three brothers and sisters approaching with smiling eyes.
Before anyone arrived, little Laura let go of her grandfather and great-grandfather's hands, lifted up her skirt and ran to the doctor.
Little Laura wore a blue winter princess dress, a white cloak, and a gold collar button set with diamonds and rubies. Her hair had also grown out, about two and a half inches long, and was golden.
Hair is naturally curly.
The little girl with naturally curly blond hair is as cute as an elf.
Little Laura ran forward a few meters, bowed to the three guests, then happily rushed forward and hugged the doctor's legs, chirping like a little sparrow: "Ms. doctor, you are finally here.
Laura is so happy. Laura dreamed about the doctor yesterday..."
The men, women, and children of the Howard family were a little dumbfounded.
The beautiful young girl Chao Er looked at the little foreign girls who were also embracing other people's laps, and her eyes widened with laughter.
Being hugged by the thigh, Leyun bent down and picked up the little girl and lifted her up high. The little girl was not afraid at all, she giggled happily, and even opened her arms like flying.
Howard's little baby was clingy, so Le Yun held her up and walked, walking in front of Howard and others before putting the little girl down.
When his little baby ran over, Alex was afraid that the doctor lady wouldn't like his baby's instability, so he felt relieved when he saw the doctor girl smiling and holding up the baby to play with. When the doctor lady put the baby down, he quickly held the baby's hand.
Without Alex's introduction, Vals himself took a step forward and bowed down like a gentleman: "Beautiful and lovely doctor lady, Miss Chao, Mr. Chao, the Howard family welcomes you, I am Vals.
William Howard, I would like to extend my warmest family welcome to your distinguished ladies and gentlemen!"
"Hello, Mr. Howard, nice to meet you." Following the principle of ladies first, Le Yun extended her hand.
Vals took the doctor's hand, bent down, and kissed the back of the hand.
He kissed the back of the doctor's hand, said hello to the doctor's sister, then said hello to the young gentleman, said hello to each other, and then introduced several important members of his family to the guests.
Julian and the main members of the family stepped forward and shook hands with the doctor and her sisters and brothers one by one.
After a brief meeting, Valls personally stood beside the doctor, and accompanied the three guests through the arched door with family members, entered a hall with several fireplaces, and sat down at a long table to talk.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The bodyguards and domestic servants of the Howard family dispersed after the distinguished guests were invited to the living room, each performing their duties.
The guest of honor met for twenty minutes. Alex and his wife took their children, together with an elder brother, and his sister-in-law and several young bodyguards picked up the guest's luggage and sent the doctor and her brother to the guest room to settle in.
The guest room is on the third floor of a building facing the river. You can see the river from the window of the room, and you can see the Iron Tower from the viewing attic facing the courtyard.
The three Chao brothers and sisters put their luggage in the guest room, tidied up their appearance, and then went downstairs with their master who was waiting in the attic with a view, and went to the living room of the building where the master lived to have afternoon tea.
This time, when they met Vals, Winston and other personnel again, the three siblings also handed over their birthday gifts to Laura first.
The young and old of the Howard family were very happy and helped the little baby open gifts together. The beautiful boy and Miss Chao Er gave the birthday boy a small panda doll, and Mr. Le gave a gold-encrusted coral hairpin.
The coral hairpin is inlaid with sapphires, with lavender flowers on the tip and a string of white pearls hanging from it.
The hairpin is antique and combines the three colors of the French flag.
When little Laura saw that the gift given by the doctor was similar to the jewelry she wore on her head, little Laura jumped up with joy, ran to the doctor and gave her a series of kisses.
The gemstone hairpin was exquisitely made, and the ladies of the Howard family took turns admiring the little baby's gift and marveled at it.
Little Laura looked at the gift, put the hairpin away, and kept holding the little panda in her arms.
I looked at the gifts and had afternoon tea.
After taking a break for afternoon tea, Winston and Vals accompanied the guests to visit the castle. In addition to the bedrooms of the owners and current residents, other places opened their doors to the guests, including some collection rooms and rooms that were originally only allowed to the Howard family.
cellar.
It was already evening after visiting the castle.
In the evening, the Howard family held a dinner to entertain three distinguished guests. The whole family came together and gathered together, which was very lively.
The guests of honor enjoyed the dinner.
The three Chao brothers and sisters also lived very comfortably in the castle, and had another sumptuous breakfast the next morning.
After breakfast, the younger generation of the Howard family entertained the beautiful boy, Miss Chao Er, Vals, Winston, Frank and others had a short meeting with the doctor.
The main purpose of Vals is to order vaccines from the doctor on behalf of the family. Last time, Frank and Winston ordered five vaccines, two of which were purchased by the two of them privately, and three were purchased by the family.
Three vaccines are too few for the Howard family. They hope to store more, not just a hundred, but twenty or thirty.
In addition to vaccines, I also hope to order some health medicines that can strengthen the body and special medicines that treat common diseases.
Valls is the heir to the Howard family. He represents the entire family and is more effective and authoritative than Frank and Winston's personal dealings with the doctor.
Of course, they also know that it is impossible for the doctor to sell the inventory in her hand. They just want to get priority. If the doctor one day produces vaccines or various special medicines, they can give priority to selling them to the Howard family.
The Howard family was sincere in discussing business, and Le Xiao's classmates were easy to talk to. They gave three vaccines to the Howard family for collection, and promised to reserve a priority slot for them when vaccines are sold outside.
The two parties communicated happily. Winston, Valls and others talked about another matter. In a few days, there will be an informal auction in New York, Country M. The Howard family received an invitation letter that was equivalent to an entry license. They wanted to invite
Let's go with the doctor.
A certain auction is a private auction, run by the Rothschild family with the deepest and most mysterious heritage in M country. Normally it is only held once every year in January of the new year. Insiders are used to calling it the Rothschild New Year's Auction.
.
The items auctioned at Law's New Year's Auction are rich in content, which is no less than the world-renowned Sotheby's auction, and can even be said to be more luxurious.
The owners who can send things to Roche Auction are all super rich and top families from all over the world, and those who are qualified to receive invitations are all giants in a certain industry.
European families such as the Russell family, the Howard family, the Edwardian family, and the Aligne family are all frequent visitors to Roche's New Year's auctions. Roberto, Alessandro, and Liszt are also insiders at Roche's auctions.
Classmate Le Xiao planned to attend little Laura's birthday party, play with her handsome brother and Sister Fu for a few days, and then go to Cambridge University to read books for a few days.
She was originally not interested in the auction. She heard that it was a private auction that was not open to the public. She also heard that no Chinese had ever been to an auction before, so she decided to accept the invitation to see the magic of Luo's auction.
Vals and Winston had a pleasant meeting with the doctor. Outside, personal friends of Winston or Howard family members arrived one after another. Alex and his brothers warmly received the visitors.
Guests came one after another, and after more than a dozen groups, Alessandro arrived with his son Amedeo, and Roberto arrived with his godson Milo and adopted son Oscar.
Alex hurriedly sent the Ferraris, Roberto, Milo, and Oscar to meet the family patriarch, the doctor.
Milo saw the child and rubbed her head happily. Oscar, let alone, was studying in country M and hadn't seen the little sweetheart for a long time.
Amedeo heard that his little sweetheart went to Cambridge a few days ago, but he didn't see her, and he felt sad. If he saw someone now, there was no reason not to rush over.
When the three brothers saw the little sweetheart, they occupied her, sat with her, diligently helped her get fruits, poured tea, and took care of her in every possible way.
Alessandro, Roberto exchanged pleasantries with Vals and Winston, and also extended an invitation to the doctor, asking her to go to Roche New Year's Auction with them.
"Oh, old friends, you are late. Miss Doctor accepted our invitation." Vals laughed. They were smart and mentioned it early. If Roberto and the others were to invite Miss Doctor to the auction before them,
What else is going on with the Howard family?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When Roberto and Alessandro saw the doctor, they also guessed that the Howard family would not let go of the opportunity, so they were not surprised, regardless of whether the doctor accepted it.
Whoever invites you, just go with them.
A group of people chatted happily for a while, and Mr. Smith from country M also arrived. After that, members of the Aligne family also arrived.
About an hour later, representatives of little Laura's maternal grandfather's family, the Edward family, and representatives of the Russell family also arrived at the castle. Valls, Winston and others had to go to receive the guests first.
After that, important members of the Howard family were busy receiving visitors and no longer had time to talk to the doctor and old friends.
At noon, the Howard family held a luncheon for personal friends and gathered together.
After dinner, there was free time, and the Howard family members went to prepare for the evening party and let friends get to know each other.
The Howard family's personal friends are all wealthy families from all walks of life. Some people have seen the Oriental girl at Alessandro's birthday party and the Cleon Ladies' Ball. When they saw her again, they all came up to greet her.
Aiwujiwu, the brothers and sisters of oriental girls are naturally very popular.
As a result, the three brothers and sisters were "dragged" and couldn't run away even if they wanted to.
It wasn't until almost evening that everyone let the three Oriental girls, brother and sister, go dress up.
The birthday party for the little princess of the Howard family was held in a building with only an independent music hall. The hall was very wide. It used to be a place for watching plays and drama performances, and could accommodate nearly a thousand people.
The ball hall was decorated with blooming flowers everywhere.
The dance was scheduled to start at 6:30 in the evening, and the guests began to enter the venue after 5:00, and all arrived before 6:20.
At half past six, members of the Howard family appeared, followed by relatives and friends who had arrived in the morning.
Valls personally led the family's little angel at the front. When he entered the hall, the guests gave him warm applause.
Valls took the little baby's hand into the hall and went to the podium. He first delivered a speech to thank the guests for coming. Then Winston gave a speech of thanks. Finally, he picked up the little baby and the little baby spoke.
Laura only said a few words and thanked the doctor and the guests who came to the party.
After little Laura finished speaking, Vals sent the little baby to the dance floor. Little Laura's grandfather sent a real little prince of the Edward family and Laura's little cousin to the dance floor. The two adults then left.
Little Laura was too young and her brothers were too tall to be her dance partners. Only a cousin from the Edwardian tribe who was two years older than her met the requirements.
The little prince of the Edward family gentlemanly invited his little cousin to dance. After little Laura accepted, the two danced to the beat of the waltz.
The guests gave warm applause.
When the dance was halfway through, Milo took the children, Amedeo took Miss Chao Er, the beautiful boy, and Oscar each went to the dance floor with a girl from the Howard family to dance with the birthday boy.
The first dance ended with thunderous applause, Valls once again delivered a speech of thanks, and the waiters served the dishes.
Halfway through dinner, the second dance started.
Little classmate Le didn't even try to hide, but was invited to dance by a young gentleman from Laura's maternal grandfather's Edward family.
After the dinner, it was the climax of the party, and the dance party officially started the curtain of dancing.
The beautiful young girl, Miss Chao Er, was invited to dance by waves of guests. Little classmate Le didn't even have time to breathe. After dancing with the twenty-second gentleman, she took a chance and ran away.
The little dumpling can run away, but the handsome boy and Miss Chao Er are too embarrassed to escape in the middle, so they can only risk their lives to accompany the gentleman.
When Valls and others discovered that the doctor was missing, they tacitly pretended not to know.
The birthday party of the little princess of the Howard family was a great success. The guests enjoyed the dance until after one o'clock in the morning, and they dispersed happily.
The beautiful boy and Chao Yufu hurried to find Xiaotuanzi after the dance, and found that her feet were swollen into pig's trotters. It was heartbreaking and funny at the same time.
The brother and sister were helping Xiaotuanzi apply medicine, while Milo, Amedeo, Winston and others teamed up to visit the doctor's sweetheart.
We stayed one night at Howard's castle. The next day, Le Xiaotong and his beautiful brother Fu returned to the hotel and were accompanied by Miss Chao Er's half-full "local escort" to visit the scenic spots in the capital of country F.
Winston and others did not disturb the family time of the Chao brothers and sisters. They enjoyed the holiday happily with their friends who were guests at the castle.
The three brothers and sisters of the Chao family spent two days enjoying themselves. On the 7th, the beautiful boy took a flight to Country Y, and Miss Chao Er went directly back to school.
Classmate Le Xiao stayed one more night in the hotel and went to the airport on the 8th to meet up with Milo, Alessandro, Roberto, Liszt, and several members of the Howard family to fly to country M.
Amedeo was studying in Cambridge, and he did not go to Country M. Oscar was lucky enough to travel with his father and his little sweetheart. Of course, they only flew to New York with him, and then he changed the plane to Boston to return to Harvard University.
