Chapter 001
In a dilapidated dark cyan wooden house on the outskirts of Cambridge, Massachusetts, the sound of drunken scolding, children’s cries, and women’s noises has been heard for a long time.
Ten meters away, an obese woman in a neighbor’s house was pruning flowers and plants at home, and sighed: “God, it’s starting again, this drunkard, I only know that I am drunk and crazy at home, and it is difficult for Beeva and the children.” ”
Out of the house came a little boy, a ten-year-old child holding a water glass, and came over with a timid look, “Mom, don’t say anything, let Henry, the drunkard, hear that it’s time to trouble our house again.” ”
“Can I still be afraid of him, look at you, there is no manhood at all, learn from your father who was a soldier…” The middle-aged woman began to nag again, and then took the cup of water and drank twice.
“So, excuse me?” A pleasant voice came from outside the door, and Aunt Madeleine turned her head to look out the door, and saw two young men and women standing outside the door, about fifteen or six years old, wearing brown baseball caps, and pulling a huge gray suitcase behind them, quite a handsome and beautiful pair.
And it was the beautiful little beauty in a light white coat who spoke, the snow-white slightly curly hair under the baseball cap was playfully exposed, about 1.65 meters tall, slender waist, white tender and moist skin, really a beautiful little girl.
The smiling face with bright eyes seems to harbor no malice towards anyone, like the first rays of the morning sun after the early winter snow, the clear spring surrounded by the center of the desert, just appearing can relieve people’s cold and thirst.
“So, excuse me, is this Henry’s home?” This brilliant yellow-haired little girl pointed to the wooden room next to her and smiled brightly.
“Huh? Oh yes, Henry Jones, it’s his home, how, what’s wrong with you? Aunt Madeleine reacted and immediately replied in a kind tone.
“Well, Henry Jones is my distant uncle, and my cousin and I let us live at Uncle Henry’s house because we were going to attend Harvard University here.” A young boy with short black hair on the side answered.
Aunt Madeleine turned her head and looked at the young boy, mainly because the girl next to her was too beautiful, making people subconsciously ignore the boy next to her.
And at this time, it seems that this young boy is wearing a black jacket, short black hair, deep black eyes, a straight nose, a resolute face, and his figure is not strong but slightly shows a strong aura, which makes people can’t help but feel that this is a powerful person.
“Oooh, yes. Since we live in Henry’s house, then we will be neighbors in the future. Right, Khanter. ”
“Oh yes, yes.” The freckled little Hante stammered in response, looking at the girl in front of him blankly, his face gradually turning red.
“Yes, we will be neighbors from now on.”
Allow me to introduce myself, I’m Alan Smith. The boy looked at Hunter slightly amused and introduced himself.
“I’m Emma Grace Frost.” The girl had a brilliant face.
“Oooh, I’m Hunter.” The little boy took the lead in responding to Emma’s words
“Call me Aunt Madeleine, young man, how about it, do you want to come in and sit?”
Allen smiled at the corners of his mouth and waved his hand gently, “No, thank you, Aunt Madeleine, when I move my things to Uncle Henry’s house, I will visit you next time.” ”
Saying that, taking Emma’s hand and walking towards Henry’s house, Emma turned around and waved her hand with a smile, “Aunt Madeleine, see you later.” ”
Aunt Madeleine watched the two young men happily walking towards Henry’s house, her face was tangled, and then she gritted her teeth, put down her scissors, and chased after her in a big stride
“Alan, Emma, wait a minute.”
Hunter looked at his mother and wanted to keep up, but hesitated, hesitated, and finally did not chase after him.
Allen and Emma looked at Aunt Madeleine who was chasing after them, and looked at each other in surprise, “Brother Allen, could it be…”
Emma asked softly in Alan’s ear.
Eren couldn’t help but scratch his itchy ears and moved his head away slightly, “Naughty, too careful, Emma, trust me, no problem.” ”
On the other side, Aunt Madeleine had already caught up with the two who had not taken a few steps, but she hesitated and did not speak, her face was tangled.
“What’s wrong? Aunt Madeleine, what’s the matter? ”
Aunt Madeleine looked at Emma’s sunny face, this is a little angel, how can it be broken in the hands of Henry, the drunkard.
“Although I don’t want to say it, Henry may not be your best choice.”
Madeleine plucked up the courage to talk about Henry.
In recent years, Henry became addicted to gambling, alcoholism, almost sold out of the family’s things, and often beat and scolded his wife and children
It is estimated that you have also heard the voice of Henry’s house, I am afraid that only Beeva can endure Henry’s anger for the sake of the child, I dare not imagine what kind of situation it will be like for you to live in Henry’s house. ”
Aunt Madeleine decided to be this bad guy who chewed the root of her tongue behind her back, for her own conscience.
Allen looked at Aunt Madeleine’s concerned expression, slightly grateful in her heart, the delicate Emma’s little face was slightly red, and she was relieved, she didn’t expect Aunt Madeleine to be such a warm-hearted and good person.
Accustomed to the indifference of society, Emma couldn’t help but feel warm, but it is impossible, she and Brother Allen will not leave here, you must know that the two of them chose for several days before deciding to target Henry’s house, Aunt Madeleine, you will understand later.
“Thank you, Aunt Madeleine, I still want to visit my uncle’s house with my sister, but I will remember your words.”
Eren said slightly apologetically.
A hint of disappointment flashed on Aunt Madeleine’s face, but after all, this is someone else’s business, she is just an outsider, and she already has a lot to say these words, and she can’t ask others to listen to herself.
“Okay then, I know, if you have difficulties, remember to come to Aunt Madeleine.”
“Of course, thank you.” Emma’s face became more and more beautiful in the sun, and a trace of gratitude flashed in her blue eyes.
Aunt Madeleine looked at Emma in the sun, and felt a kind of psychological peace in a slight trance.
Then he shook his head and turned back to continue pruning his flowers and plants.
Looking at Madeleine’s back, Eren smiled softly
“Let’s go, Emma.”
“Well, brother.” He took the initiative to take Allen’s big hand and walked towards Henry’s wooden room.
