Chapter 10142 The mother-in-law wants to go to the East

Li Jinde and others were on the right track to build a factory in London. They recruited a group of British workers for simple Chinese communication training. Before the factory was built, they needed to allow these British workers to understand the most basic instructions.

It is painful for these British workers to learn Chinese characters, a completely different language system, but Chinese businessmen are willing to pay them higher wages, so the hired workers are willing to receive training in the cold winter.

Before the factory was built, Li Jinde went to Devon in the southwest to visit his mother-in-law with Sir Greenville.

Grace owned a large estate in Devon. Even after leaving Sir Greenville, she lived a very comfortable life. She hired servants and hired the estate to farmers to plant it to collect land rent.

Li Jinde and Sir Greenville arrived in a carriage from the direction of London City. The four-wheeled carriage was bumpy on the dirt road in the countryside. Because it was the cold winter, there was snow in the farmland.

"Grees has a stubborn temper and is very angry about the fact that Salina stays in the East, so she returns to the manor she lived in when she was young. When you see her, please tell me something good, and I want to make peace with her... When I was young, I married her half because I was to get along with her mayor's father Smith, but my other half is because I love her." Sir Greenville said.

"I will speak properly." Li Jinde has become accustomed to the British saying frankly about love and hate.

The four-wheeled carriage stopped at the door of a large manor. Sir Greenville and Lee Jinde, dressed in coats, got off the carriage.

"Bring this thing to your master, she will be willing to see me." Sir Greenville handed over the black and white picture of Salina to the servants of the Great Manor.

"Okay, Lord Jazz, please wait a moment." The servant knew Sir Greenville and knew that he was the master, so he went to inform Grace.

Li Jinde stopped and stood outside the big manor, observing the scenery of the big manor in winter. The big manor where Grace lives now covers a vast area. At the core of the big manor, there is a three-story stone castle building. There is a main road leading to the stone castle building in the vast farmland. In addition to the crops, there is a group of sheep wandering in the fence.

"It's such a vast manor. It seems that life is quite nourishing when you are a noble in the countryside." Seeing the scenery of the countryside, Li Jinde understood a little why the gentry and nobles in Britain had such a great voice. They were landlords of all sizes everywhere. In addition, the king's power is not as concentrated as the Eastern monarchs, and the gentry and nobles were local emperors in the countryside.

"Sustaining a huge family plan and holding extravagant banquets is not easy, and finding ways to get the support of civilians to be elected as a member of parliament," said Sir Greenville.

While the two were waiting, the servant reported the purpose of the mistress Grace.

"I don't want to see that old guy. It was a wrong decision that he asked Salina to go to the East. He also let Salina be left in the East, so that we will never meet each other!" Mrs. Grace was reading by the fire, and when she heard the servant say that Sir Greenville asked for a meeting, her voice became a little hysterical.

"Sir Greenville wants me to give this to you, Madam." The servant presented a black and white photo to Mrs. Grace.

"What is this piece of paper?" Mrs. Grace took the black and white photo handed over by the servant, and saw that Salina was holding a baby in the photo, and suddenly seemed to have changed. "Let that old guy in Greenville come over!"

After a while, Sir Greenville and Li Jinde came in under the guidance of their servants. The firewood in the fireplace burned, and the firelight reflected on the faces of several people in the room, making the room very warm. Li Jinde saw that there were special bookshelfs in the room, which were filled with books. No wonder Salina was so eager for knowledge. She came from such a noble family. Even as a woman, she could not enter Cambridge University or Oxford University, she could still get a lot of knowledge from the family's collection of books, and some nobles also had tutors.

Sir Greenville took off his coat and hung it, breaking the silence with a bitter face: "Grace, are you still unwilling to forgive me?"

"Old guy, how did you get this painting? And what happened to the child in Salina's arms?" Grace raised a black and white photo, but regarded it as a painting.

"Look at the man next to Salina above and the young man I brought." Sir Greenville pointed at Li Jinde and said.

Mrs. Grace compared the man in the black and white photos with the oriental man following Sir Greenville, showing a surprised expression.

"You are..." Mrs. Grace discovered that the man standing beside Salina in the photo was the person in front of her.

"I am Salina's husband Li Jinde, and I feel deeply guilty about leaving Salina in the East... At that time, Sir Greenville tried his best to bring Salina back to Britain. It was our supreme ruler of the East who came forward to keep Salina. Please don't blame Sir Greenville again." Li Jinde said.

Mrs. Grace was inexplicably complicated when she saw Li Jinde, the son-in-law who was airborne. She unknowingly had a granddaughter.

"Please sit down, I want to ask you about Salina's situation." Mrs. Grace pointed to a wooden chair next to the fireplace.

Mrs. Grace obviously loved her only daughter very much and asked Li Jinde about Salina's recent situation. Sir Greenville had to sit aside with a frown.

"So that's it... You are a big businessman in China, and you should be able to take good care of Salina, so I'll be relieved." Mrs. Grace knew that Salina was safe, and Princess Sophia was also in the capital of China, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

"So, Mrs. Grace, can you forgive Sir Greenville?" Li Jinde helped him speak nice things with Mrs. Grace as agreed with Sir Greenville.

"I don't want to forgive this old guy..." Mrs. Grace disliked Sir Greenville, but continued to talk to Li Jinde with a little interest: "You said this thing is called a photo, which can record images in real life, right? There are trains, new colleges, electric lights, so many magical things have appeared in the East... To be honest, I want to go to the East to see it, and my daughter and granddaughter. I am a little tired of living alone in the countryside."

"Ahem, the sailing on the sea is very dangerous, and there are dangerous areas such as the Storm Point..." said Sir Greenville.

"Shut up, old guy!" Mrs. Grace shouted.
