Chapter 246 Relatives and Friends (7)

The doze lasted only for a while. When it came, it was like a savage beast, and I wanted to fall asleep. But when I left, I became completely sleepy without realizing it.

During this period, Luo Quan also closed his eyes for a while, but because he was afraid of drooling or falling to the ground, he quickly opened them after closing them for about ten seconds.

After staying like this for about half an hour, the sleepiness gradually receded. I still yawned from time to time, but I felt much better.

There was nothing else to do, so Luo Quan just played with his mobile phone like the other brothers and sisters.

The video posted to Station B in the morning has now received more than one million views, and has also been trending on Station B. The hot search keyword is "Luoquan's mansion".

Luo Quan clicked in, wanting to see what outrageous quotes these netizens had.

In the comment area:

"Hey, do you have a garden at home? The kind that fills the mountains and plains once it opens."

"I don't even have a vegetable garden at home."

"It's nice, it's nice to live in a garden."

"Luo Quan once again refreshed my understanding of the rich. I used to think that the rich lived in luxury houses, rode in luxury cars, and had better greenery in the community. There was no qualitative difference between where ordinary people lived.

Until today, I saw a video taken by Luo Quan. The castle he lives in is surrounded by violet fields as far as the eye can see. There is also a larger circle of cherry trees on the outside, and there is also a virgin forest in the valley behind the mountain! "

"This is a beauty I couldn't even imagine in my dreams."

“Actually, you’ll get tired of living there for too long. (Lemon, lemon)”

"You can only see this kind of behavior abroad. Who dares to do this in China? There will be bulldozers on the same day it is built!"

"It's a pity that I didn't get to see what the inside of the castle is like."

………………

Judging from the comment area, most of them are filled with envy and lamentations. Occasionally, you can see a few words about "evil capitalism", but I don't know whether they are ridiculing or sarcastic.

Open the video, and as soon as you enter, the screen will be full of high-level barrages: "Warning, this video is high-energy throughout!"

The black screen lasted for a few seconds, and the barrage suddenly disappeared. The camera showed Luo Quan's muddy sneakers, and then he lifted them up.

The next second, a stretch of purple stretching to the horizon filled the entire screen. The blue sky and the sea of ​​purple flowers each occupied half of the space. Luo Quan's explanation voice was soft and natural.

Although the camera basically rotates with her, and only an exaggeratedly large field of violets can be seen, other scenery around the castle is also described in her light and sweet voice.

Although I haven't seen the actual thing, I can already imagine the beauty just by listening to the description.

The video was actually not very long. It ended quickly in less than two minutes, but the topic it left caused a long discussion. Zhihu and Weibo also noticed the video and immediately reposted it.

Luo Quan knew that there would probably be a burst of lemon juice later to criticize her so-called "showing off wealth" video. This was the result she had anticipated when filming the video.

But it’s not actually a bad thing. It’s much easier to manage a character with flaws than to maintain a perfect character. Luo Quan would rather his reputation was as mixed as before. If it was really as popular as in Japan, Praise, you may become a public enemy one day because of something, and it will be difficult to stand up at that time.

The time was spent leisurely scrolling through news updates and browsing websites. It was another fruitless day.

Although most of the guests drove themselves to the banquet, the location of the manor was still relatively remote and far from the city, so the dinner started at half past five.

The dinner was naturally held inside the castle, which was also the highlight of the day. Many important figures who had not come at noon also arrived in the evening.

Luo Quan followed and listened to what his grandfather called these guests. They were either knights or bosses. Some of the names were familiar even to her. In the standard sense, they were either rich or noble.

When we entered the castle hall again, the place had changed its appearance.

The crystal chandeliers above his head were all turned on, and only then did Luo Quan notice the details on the walls on the first floor of the castle, which were all lifelike reliefs.

These gods outlined in gold powder and silver threads were dazzling under the reflection of the crystal lamp, and their eyes were filled with surprise, and the irresistible aura of nobility hit their faces.

As the director, the old man also stood at the top of the stairs, while his children and grandchildren stood at the bottom of the stairs, lined up.

"Everyone." The old man spoke in a loud voice. All the guests fell silent and looked at him.

"It is a great honor for you all to give me face and attend my birthday party today.

After doing business for so many years, I have actually been maintaining my father's achievements. My achievements are really not worth mentioning, but what I am most proud of is that I have such outstanding children and grandchildren. They are the greatest achievements in my life. of wealth!

The dinner party starts immediately, I hope everyone can enjoy the drink! "

Sounds of approval and applause came one after another.

The old man’s dinner was very retro style.

The tables for food and drinks are all along the walls of the hall, and in a large open space in the middle, only a piano stands near the stairs.

The pianist was already in place and started playing a waltz. It seemed that these open spaces were reserved for the guests to dance on.

In fact, dancing has always been the main way of communication for Western nobles, and banquets and balls are largely synonymous.

The guests who came here also danced to some extent. Seeing that the atmosphere was getting better, a few brave boys walked towards the girls who had fallen in love at first sight at noon and extended an invitation to dance together.

"Are you interested in dancing?" Seifert said to Luo Quan next to him with his mouth full of food.

Leon broke the news and said, "Do you want to show off your three-legged cat dance steps and make me look embarrassed?"

"Don't look for me, I don't know how to dance." Luo Quan refused without even thinking.

It's okay to let her go up and sing, but it's definitely not possible today. She is the master now, what will happen if she goes up and howls?

After what happened at noon, there were far fewer boys coming to Luo Quan in the evening.

I originally thought I could have a good meal tonight, but who knew that Luo Quan was called over by an adult just after taking a few bites, probably to get to know the big shots who had just arrived.

When he came to the place where the adults were chatting, Luo Quan saw an old man who probably had wrinkles on his face but a tall and straight posture.

Judging from his appearance, he is probably much older than his grandfather.

"This is His Royal Highness Prince Sarshi." The old man introduced.

Oh, it turned out to be a relative of my own.

Luo Quan blinked and didn't know how to salute. He just nodded and said, "Nice to meet you, Your Highness."

Prince Sarshi smiled and said: "Your beauty is comparable to the moon on the most beautiful night."

The culture of the royal family is just different. The level of praise and Seifert's stereotyped rhetoric are simply in the sky and on the earth.

As for Lyon, Prince Sarshi already knows him, so no further introduction is needed.

"You must come to support my second son's engagement party tomorrow." Prince Sarshi said to the old man.

Generally speaking, the intimacy of this kind of invitation can be seen from the wording.

If the relationship is really good, Prince Salshi will usually add that he must come, or he is not allowed to come.

Secondly, here I just say that I am coming, which means it is very clear. It basically means that it is up to you whether you come or not.

The old man also understood very well and did not say anything. Several of his children declined politely.

It’s not that I’m too busy at work or my schedule is too tight. It’s just a little time out of my busy schedule to celebrate my dad’s birthday this time. The engagement party is not scheduled this time. I will definitely come to the next wedding!

Although the two families are related by blood or even relatives, nearly a hundred years have passed and their relationship has actually faded away a lot.

The old man's father's generation still has some contact with the British royal family, but from him down, the relationship is no longer what it used to be, and his business has grown bigger and bigger in recent years. In a capitalist country, what kind of status does a giant capital like him mean? No need to elaborate further.

Every time the two parties meet, they actually feel a little embarrassed.

But the relationship is still there anyway, and no one wants to break it off, so they still come to the old man's birthday party to save face, and they also send out invitations to their son's engagement party.

However, the old man naturally didn't want to go to such a banquet that was not particularly important, unless it was Sal Shi's own birthday.

While they were chatting here, there was some movement from the dance floor next to them.

It wasn't that someone had a conflict and wanted to duel, but it was because of a pair of young people on the dance floor who were dancing with amazing moves.

The girl is extremely beautiful, with red hair that is as eye-catching as flames, a graceful figure, and a graceful dancing posture.

Her dance partner was Darien, who was still chatting with Luo Quan at noon. He couldn't say a few words to Luo Quan at noon. He disappeared all afternoon and ended up dancing with another beautiful woman.

It is said that both of them have very good dancing skills. When the dancers around them saw the two of them, they stopped and admired them with smiles on their faces.

After playing a waltz, the red-haired girl leaned half in the air, showing off her voluptuous waist, while Darien hugged him and made a pose.

The whole place burst into applause and cheers, and everyone was cheering for them both.

What's interesting is that the red-haired girl didn't say much to Darian after the dance. After a few polite words, she turned around and walked towards Luo Quan and the others, and walked up to an old man with the same hair color as her.

"How's it going, Charles? My granddaughter Caitlin is a pretty good dancer, isn't she?" The old man's voice was as loud as a bell. Although he was not tall, he was very strong. Judging from his hair color and accent, he should be Scot.

Generally speaking, it is rare to see Scots in such banquets, which are dominated by English people. Although the two races are only one word apart, tracing back to their origins, the difference is no more than that of cows and snails, and their ancestors They also fought with each other for a long time.

However, when this old man appeared here, the other guests did not show any special look. He must have accepted them. As for the reason, it is unknown. It is simply due to fame, wealth or power.

"My granddaughter has loved playing since she was a child. Fortunately, she is smart and can learn everything quickly. Dancing is the worst of all her talents." The red-haired old man's expression was a bit artificial, but his tone was full of pride. Obviously showing off.

This is the only way the old people compare themselves to each other. To be friends, they must be of the same level. Apart from their own grandchildren, there is nothing else to compare them to.

The old man looked at his grandchildren and felt a little speechless.

Leon has been with him for the longest time, he knows what he is like, and he is good at making trouble. In this kind of situation...you can't go up and perform the same thing he did at the concert, right?

As for Stuckart, he was a nerd. As long as it was about books, he could talk about philosophy, science, theology, and psychology in a clear and logical manner, and he was very knowledgeable, but it was of little use in this situation.

I won’t mention the other two girls. What talents can they have at the age of fourteen or fifteen?

"Daughter, can you dance?" Luo Ni knew that it was her daughter's time to show off. As the boss, she should take the lead both emotionally and rationally!

"How can I dance?!" Luo Quan was a little anxious. She was wearing high heels and couldn't walk steadily. If she really danced, she would be thrown upside down? !

She was good at playing the suona, but if she played a song on such an occasion, she would probably send Grandpa away on the spot.

Fortunately, she had used her extra popularity points to exchange for many practical skills, such as playing bombs, which was the only high-end talent she could use.

"Grandpa, I'm actually pretty good at playing the piano." Luo Quan's voice was not loud, but the people around him could hear it.

Everyone is quite happy to see the talent competition between the descendants of this generation. It will not make the competition angry, but it can also make the winner's face look bright.

"Sister, I was the second place winner of the last Chopin Award." Caitlin reminded Luo Quan kindly, "The winning piece was Liszt's "The Bell"."

Liszt's "The Bell" is a very difficult piano piece with a beautiful melody, and it's also suitable for showing off your skills.

Luo Quan’s friend Natsuko Miyano in Japan often practices this piece, but according to her, she is too amateurish compared to those Chopin Prize contestants.

And Caitlin is in second place, so needless to say how good she is. After Luo Quan finishes playing, she will definitely go up and play a song. If the difference between before and after is too big, the scene will be somewhat embarrassing.

Caitlin said this in advance, it must be for Luo Quan's benefit.

"My piano skills are actually average because I haven't practiced specifically, but my composition is pretty good. Although I don't have much preparation, I can play a piano piece I composed for everyone."

"Are you composing a piano piece now?" Caitlin's eyes widened, thinking she heard wrongly.

"I forgot to tell you, my granddaughter is a world-famous musician. She is said to be a musical prodigy that has been rare in decades!" Luo Quan himself felt a little ashamed when hearing the old man's bragging.

"I remembered, you are Luo Quan, right!" Caitlin had heard Luo Quan's songs, but her clothes had changed a bit, and she almost didn't recognize her.

Prince Salshi said with a smile: "That's so interesting. Composing piano music on the spot. If you can make a good piece of music, it will be a good story."

Leon smiled but said to himself: If this can't be done, then what you said is so interesting. Didn't you deliberately hold your sister up and wait to see the joke?

Although Leon has great trust in his sister's talent, composing music on the spot is not the least bit difficult.

Seifert was very excited and took out his cell phone to record this historic moment.

"Give me three minutes and a staff." Luo Quan found a table and sat down.

Butler Barry, dripping with sweat, brought the staff and pen to Luo Quan.

Everyone looked at her, wanting to see what kind of music she could write.
