Chapter 175
Old house?
Alyssa turned to look at Karl, and found that his expression had become very gloomy.
Alyssa found that as long as it was related to the Adams’ family, Karl’s face could be changed.
He seems to dislike Adams’ family in particular.
She stretched out her hand to hold Karl’s hand, almost immediately, Karl held her hand instead.
Immediately, Karl said indifferently, “I see.”
Alyssa could tell that Karl didn’t want to return to Adams’ Old House.
She didn’t know much about the Adams’ family. She only knew that the Adams’ family was a big family. She had heard from Luther before that the family has a large population, and there are many cousins ”‹”‹of the same generation, and only the relationship between the two brothers and Karl is better.
Karl’s identity was announced, and it was normal for Karl’s people to let Karl go back after such a big incident.
The two returned to the room, Alyssa asked him, “Do you want to go back tomorrow?”
Karl raised his head and saw the cautious expression on Alyssa’s face. He curled his lips, his smile was not obvious, but the whole person was obviously softened.
He took Alyssa into his arms, with a rare hint of teasing in his tone: “Of course I have to go back, and show him the old man his grandson.”
Alyssa looked up at him: “Who?”
Karl looked at her with a smile, “Grandpa.”
The rulers of the Adams’ family for generations are all legends, not to mention Mr. Adams who has maintained the family’s prosperity for decades.
Alyssa was a little nervous.
…
The next day.
Alyssa got up early and walked around in the cloakroom picking clothes.
This color is too plain, that style is not dignified…
Picking around is not good enough, Alyssa is a little discouraged.
Suddenly, she noticed the slight movement behind her, and turned her head coldly, and saw that Karl had walked in without knowing when she was leaning against the wall, looking at her with a little smile in her eyes.
Such smiling eyes are simply fascinating-a foul!
She found that Karl liked to laugh a lot these days, and watched her laugh at every turn, as if she was caught in an evil spirit.
Alyssa threw the clothes in her hand, curled her lips, and said, “You help me pick clothes.”
When the time comes, if the Adams’ family picks her thorns, the clothes are not dignified, and the shoes don’t look good, she can still push them off to Karl.
“OK.”
Karl said, and walked over without any hesitation.
He directly took a down jacket and handed it to Alyssa.
Alyssa: “…”
She didn’t want to take over the down jacket at all, and even wanted to drive Karl out.
Sure enough, he couldn’t expect anything from a “Karl who thought she was cold”.
It was the first time that Karl went back to see his parents. She wanted to dress better!
Alyssa looked at him disgustingly: “AdamPic has so many beautiful female stars, can’t you establish a minimum aesthetic in wearing them?”
“Beautiful female celebrity?” Karl repeated, turning around and hanging back the down jacket that Alyssa disliked, and said casually, “A little worse than you.”
Alyssa was slightly stunned.
Is he complimenting her for her beauty?
Karl found a thick dark gray furry coat and handed it to her: “This one?”
He raised his eyes and saw Alyssa staring straight at him with those beautiful cat eyes open, her eyes were a little excited and a little bit of joy was in them.
Karl raised his eyebrows and uttered a monosyllable sound from his throat: “Huh?”
Alyssa regained consciousness, without seeing what clothes he was holding, nodded hurriedly: “It looks good.”
Karl glanced at her unpredictably, and reached out to touch her forehead.
The temperature is normal, not sick…
Karl did not directly praise her for being beautiful either, that sentence was implicit and euphemistic, but Alyssa had automatically transformed the phrase “a little worse than you” into “those female stars are not as beautiful as you.”
Although it’s a bit exaggerated, who doesn’t like being praised for being beautiful!
It wasn’t until Karl watched Alyssa go out holding clothes that he had an afterthought. Alyssa’s expression just now was because of what he said…
As for being so happy?
What he said is the truth.
…
The two had eaten breakfast, and came to take them to the old house at night.
The old house of the Adams’ family is really old. The one-hundred-year old house handed down from the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty was estimated by experts at nearly 10 billion.
However, in order to make it more convenient to live in, it has undergone several repairs, but it still maintains the charm of the ancient house.
The Adams’ Old House is famous, and there are often tourists from far away, even those who are far away want to take a look at it.
“Sir, young lady, here it is.”
Smith’s voice came, and Alyssa’s uneasy mood along the way miraculously calmed down at this time.
She turned her head and looked out of the car window, and saw outside the door of the retro House, a line of bodyguards and servants stood neatly on both sides of the door to greet them.
Alyssa has never seen this kind of show, just like filming.
She stretched out her hand to go to the car door, when Karl suddenly held her hand: “Don’t move.”
She turned her head and looked at Karl in confusion.
But Karl didn’t speak. Smith had already got out of the car and walked over to open the door for Karl.
After Karl got out of the car, he still stood on the side holding the car doo. He slightly leaned over and put one hand on the top of the car door to prevent her from meeting her head. The other hand reached Alyssa and smiled at her: ” Get out of the car.”
The handsome man laughed more and more fascinated, not to mention the posture of such a gentleman asking her to get out of the car.
Alyssa thought she was not a particularly romantic person, and she did not eat this set, but looking at Karl’s face, she felt that her cheeks were hot…
She blushed and put her hand in Karl’s hand. When Karl saw it, the smile deepened in her eyes, and she took Alyssa to get out of the car and walked towards the gate with her hand.
The servants and bodyguards at the door all bent over and respectfully said: “Welcome Sir, and young lady home!”
Although Alyssa has been married to Karl for a while, they have always lived in a villa halfway up the mountain. Karl didn’t show up in front of her. He eats everything she chooses. Not picky.
Therefore, she knows that she is married to a top rich, but she has no special feelings.
Only at this moment, when she stood at the door of Adams’ Old House and was greeted by the crowds of servants and bodyguards, did she really have a sense of reality of marrying herself into a top rich family.
Karl felt that Alyssa’s hands were slightly stiff, so he squeezed her palm, looked at her sideways, and calmed her down, “Don’t be nervous, just follow me.”
Alyssa pursed her lips and nodded: “Yeah.”
There is not much difference between the layout of the old house of this house and the modern villa, but the garden design is more subtle and has a lot of heritage.
Chapter 176
Along the way, wherever he went, there were servants and bodyguards, and they would stop to say hello to Alyssa and Karl.
Even the arc of bending is the same, neatly arranged in a row, clearly well-trained.
Alyssa was secretly frightened, and her complexion became a little serious.
The Adams’ Old House is very large, and the two passed through the front yard, walked through the hall to the back yard.
When Mr. Adams was old and not working, he moved to live in a quiet backyard.
When he arrived at the door of Mr. Adams, Karl asked the servant who was standing at the door: “Grandpa is inside?”
“Yes.” The servant saw Karl, with a hint of joy on his face, gently pushed the door in, and said carefully: “Old gentleman, Sir is back.”
The opening of the door was very small, just enough to accommodate the servant standing there. Alyssa could not see inside, only heard a slightly older voice sounding: “Let them in.”
The servant turned his head and nodded slightly at Karl.
Karl held Alyssa’s hand tightly: “Let’s go in.”
Alyssa was taken into the room by Karl.
The heating in the room is sufficient, there is a smell of ink and tea, and the furnishings in the room are simple, with a row of bookshelves, a desk, and some tea sets.
Elder Adams is dressed in a Chinese tunic suit, holding the fault in his hand, and standing in front of the desk writing calligraphy. Although he is over seventy, he is vigorous and standing upright, revealing an air of calmness.
Karl shouted, “Grandpa.”
Elder Adams raised his head and met Alyssa’s eyes, who had been staring at him. He didn’t say a word, but he was not angry.
Alyssa lowered her eyes slightly, and Karl silently pulled Alyssa behind him.
Karl’s protective gesture fell in the eyes of Elder Adams, causing him to snorted, “Who is this little girl?”
Karl raised his eyebrows: “The person you want to meet.”
His tone can be said to be a bit aggressive, making the old man blow his beard and stare, throwing the brush in his hand: “Who are you again?”
Alyssa: “…”
Does this old man have Alzheimer’s?
The thought in her heart just came out, and the old man over there looked at her nonchalantly, and said: “Who scolds for dementia?”
Alyssa was taken aback by what he said.
This man has the ability to interpret people’s hearts.
However, the look of Elder Adams staring at her was not so intimidating, but rather inexplicably int!macy.
Alyssa smiled: “No, I just think Grandpa is very energetic.”
These words are very useful to Mr. Adams. He squinted at Alyssa for a few seconds: “Come here.”
Alyssa turned her head and looked at Karl. Karl gave a relieved look and gave her a light push on her back to signal her to pass.
Although the conversation between Karl and Elder Hunt just now was a bit inexplicable, she could also feel that the relationship between Karl and Elder man was good, and it could even be said to be close.
Alyssa walked over obediently, corrected her expression, and said seriously: “Grandpa, I am Karl’s wife, Alyssa.”
Elder Adams didn’t speak immediately, but looked at her calmly, and Alyssa was a little nervous when he looked at her.
Mr. Adams seemed to be aware of her anxiety, with a smile on his face similar to the success of a child’s mischief, and said with a smile: “Well, she looks pretty, sit down.”
Alyssa was stunned for a moment, and then wanted to turn her head to look at Karl, but was glared by Elder Adams: “Look at what that stinky kid is doing, let you sit down!”
“…” Well, she sits down.
However, hearing Karl’s name “Stinky Kid”, she actually felt very happy.
Alyssa sat down beside Mr. Adams.
When Karl saw this, he also came over and was about to sit down next to Alyssa, only to be kicked on his leg by Elder man: “Who told you to sit!”
The kick of the Elder Adams was fast and steady, and the strength was obviously not light.
Alyssa felt pain when she looked at it, but Karl’s eyebrows frowned slightly, obviously because of the pain.
“Grandpa…” Karl’s tone was helpless: “The first time I brought your granddaughter-in-law home, can’t you give me some face?”
“I give you face, who gives me face?” Elder Adams was obviously more angry than him: “You count yourself, do you remember the last time you came back to the old house to see me?”
Karl fell silent after hearing this.
There was a suffocating silence in the room.
Alyssa vaguely understood what the conversation between Karl and Mr. Adams just now meant.
Karl suspected that Adams’ family was involved in the case of his mother, so he rejected Adams’ family.
Today was the first time that she was brought to the old house by Karl. She shouldn’t be talking about these two grandparents.
At this moment, the door was pushed open again.
The person who came in was Karl’s father, Trevor.
Trevor first called Mr. Adams: “Dad.”
Then, he turned his head to look at Karl: “Someone called me before that Karl was back. I still don’t believe. Why didn’t you tell me in advance when you came back? you will eat at home today and live at home tonight. Well, your room has always been cleaned by a servant, so you can live directly.”
Elder Adams immediately snorted coldly, “Keep him here! Let him go!”
…
In the end, Karl and Alyssa stayed.
During the meal, several people sat at the huge dining table with a row of servants guarding them, which made Alyssa very uncomfortable.
After dinner, Trevor left beforehand, and Alyssa and Karl accompanied Mr. Adams back to the room.
The servant boiled water and handed tea to him. Father Adams took out a red packet and handed it to Alyssa.
Alyssa didn’t take it over immediately.
Elder man stared at her: “What? Do you dare not accept the meeting gift given by your father?”
Alyssa knew where Karl’s arrogant temperament came from.
“Thank you, grandpa.” After Alyssa took it, she felt that the red envelope was very thin, and she guessed it might be something like a check.
No matter what was in it, Alyssa felt a little surprised.
Before coming, she always thought that she would be embarrassed by the old man, but she didn’t expect that Elder Adams would accept her so easily.
After drinking tea with Elder man for a while, Alyssa was sent back to the room to rest.
The room was used by Karl when he was a teenager. After the events of that year, he went abroad. After returning, he didn’t return to the old house, but directly lived in the villa halfway up the mountain.
The furnishings in the room still have traces of the life of a teenager, posters of basketball stars, robots, books, game consoles…
