Chapter 588

In summer, the sunlight penetrates through the window lattice and spreads all over the room. The soft golden color warms the cool indoor space, and the cold and empty room gradually breeds a touch of vitality.

Matthew walked into the room, but he had to stand on tiptoe, as if he were jumping around the house, avoiding the clothes and socks, backpacks and books that were littered on the ground. The clean and tidy hall was like a disaster scene; Take a look at the kitchen table. There are open lunch boxes on it. There are all kinds of ingredients on it. There are also two washed apples on the table. There are also some leaves on the table. It's like a tornado.

Sometimes, Matthew strongly suspected that Langley was deliberately so. In order to irritate Elizabeth at home, he deliberately threw things around. Over time, he did not make Elizabeth lose her manners, but left the habit of forgetting. Of course, it's more likely that this guy is a complete life idiot.

Glanced at the location of the bed, empty no one; There was a faint sound of water in the bathroom. The whereabouts of the owner of the room were revealed.

Looking back at the chaotic room, Matthew closed his eyes. He could see nothing. But in the end, he did not control the impatience brought by obsessive-compulsive disorder, so he opened his eyes again, put down his briefcase, hung his suit coat on the hanger, rolled up his shirt sleeves and began to be busy.

The water in the bathroom stopped and the water in the kitchen started. Matthew looked back, and then he saw blue Li coming out barefoot, wiping his hair. He frowned slightly. Serious cleanliness addicts, every time they see such a scene, will feel headache, "either put on slippers, or sit on the sofa.". The floor hasn't been mopped for two days

Lan Li's steps stopped slightly, "eh, two days? I thought you would clean up every day. " It was as if Matthew was his cleaning assistant. But to be honest, the cleaning assistant and housekeeper didn't do as well as Matthew, which was the evaluation of Matthew's sister Charlotte.

Matthew has been used to it for a long time, "these two days are just busy with an important case." This explains the reason, but there is no in-depth explanation. I cleaned up all the kitchen utensils, dried my hands, poured two cups of coffee, went to the hall, took out the coaster from the bottom of the tea table, put the two cups on it, and then sat down beside lanli, "what about you? After the work is over, what's the next plan? "

"Well, I'm thinking about learning to dive and getting a deep sea diving license."“ "Detached" just finished, Lan Li is still inevitably lost, but when it comes to diving, he starts to fly again, "do you know? Paul because crazy love the ocean, also studied a marine related professional, got a degree. I was wondering if Paul would lead me to the Caribbean and systematically learn how to dive

"I thought you were still learning to surf." Matthew picked up his coffee and slowly began to enjoy it.

"Surfing, of course, I will continue to learn. I don't know if I'm free for Christmas this year. I'd like to go to Oahu and try the big barrel wave Make complaints about it, "Matthew made a poker faced look." are you sure? If I remember correctly, the barrel wave is a disaster for non professionals, and may even be injured. "

Blue Li pulled the corner of his mouth, shrugged his shoulders, and then took the coffee. Matthew could only shake his head helplessly in his noncommittal appearance. Lanli is a person who dares to take risks, enjoy and undertake. Even Edith and Charlotte admire her for this. In the aristocratic class, she is a complete alien.

"I'm still seriously considering acting in a drama. I deeply feel that I should take more exercise and continue to polish my basic skills. But now it's just in the thinking stage. " For Matthew, lanli thought there was nothing to hide, so he said it.

Of course, Langley also knows that the overall business situation of London's west end and Broadway is very poor. It's not easy for the new generation of actors and the older generation of actors to find jobs, because even starting a new play is difficult.

Most of the plays now regularly staged in the west end of London and Broadway are classic dramas that have been popular for more than ten or twenty years, such as "Miss Saigon" and "phantom of the opera". They are all rehearsed to attract tourists. The dramas that really focus on performance and art gradually narrow their living space.

So it's not easy for Langley to find a job in the west end and Broadway.

Matthew's direction of thinking was different from that of Langley. He was surprised and asked, "west end? Or Broadway? "

"What's the difference?" Lan Li said with a smile.

Although there are many differences in the repertoire of the two regions, it is very common for Broadway plays to be staged in the west end of London and West End troupes to tour Broadway in the globalized environment. But that's clearly not what Matthew meant - the west end, which is London, the home of the hall family.

Matthew glanced at Langley helplessly, then said something interesting, "when Eaton went back to London last month, almost everyone mentioned your name. It is said that when George was on holiday in the lake area, he was sick because of the heavy humidity, and all the summer parties in August were absent. "

Two simple sentences, and some forewords don't match the last words, show the gossip and secret of London aristocracy incisively and vividly.

Because "speed and passion 5" is such a simple and crude commercial film, it is widely known. For the hall family, this is the family clown that can not be publicized; For the rest of the aristocracy, this is the joke of onlookers. Although the situation of independent art films such as "buried alive" and "crazy love" is not much better, even the drama has gradually declined, let alone Hollywood as a commercial center; But "speed and passion 5" is definitely adding fuel to the fire.

"It seems that Eaton should invite me to dinner. Otherwise, those boring ladies will be busy introducing him." Lan Li is not in a hurry, there is time to joke. Looking at the expressionless Matthew, lenley waved, "they are a group of church old scholars who think they are the center of the world, but have long been reduced to the edge of society. In Andre's words, their so-called gossip and nagging are more boring than prostitutes' love confessions. "

The aristocratic class is a very small circle. Even a person who missed breakfast because of staying up in bed may become the topic of afternoon tea. From this topic, it can be extended to the family's depression and chaos. There are no rules at all, and the capital operation is deteriorating, so that parents hope to improve their family situation through their children's marriage. And so on, the eight trigrams continue.

Not to mention the rebels such as Langley and Andre, every move can cause people's discussion. If every gossip has to be cared about and every comment has to be responded to, then they simply don't want to live. It's the best policy to open a hotline every day for special answers.

However, Eaton domer is an honest character, not like to retort with his mouth. In the face of such bombardment, he should be unable to resist.

"If you do go back to the west end, please send me a formal invitation." Matthew joked with him.

To be honest, in fact, he is looking forward to Langley's coming to the stage in the west end. Drama is one of the daily pastimes of aristocratic life. They update their repertoire almost every week.

However, aristocrats watch plays too often. They may have watched classic plays thousands of times. Therefore, they have a lot to learn about the different cast of each play, the different performances of each actor, and the different creative styles of each play.

What a fantastic comedy it will be when they see Langley on the stage.

Lan Li held up his coffee cup and said, "don't worry, I'll make a special invitation letter, which will be sent by your family and my family to ensure that everyone can receive it."

He never had a hidden plan, he was open and aboveboard. If he can get on the stage in the west end of London, he will send out invitation letters to his relatives and friends in strict accordance with aristocratic etiquette, but whether they have the courage to attend is beyond his control.

On the contrary, he was curious about the face of his parents when they received the invitation. It must be wonderful“ You say, I submit it through Philip? Or to George and Elizabeth? "

"Maybe you can give it to ALF." Matthew suggested that we should go there.

"No, it would be boring to give it to ALF. It would be more fun to give it to Arthur." Blue Li is eager to try, and then seriously nodded, "well, it seems I should give Andy a call, formally mention this matter." Without too many words, you can feel the expectation and excitement in Lan Li's eyes.

"Before we make a formal call, let's talk about what we have for lunch today." As soon as the words changed, the whole painting style was completely different. Lan Li chatted excitedly, "first of all, I don't eat sandwiches; Secondly, I don't eat pizza; Again, I don't eat vegetarian food. So, what do you suggest? Wait, you're going to work this afternoon, aren't you? How much time can I squeeze out of working lunch? "

Matthew's plan was to use a sandwich for his work lunch, but now it's obviously not applicable. "It depends on how much money you have in your bank account? See if we can afford French food. " Matthew said solemnly, but his eyes sparkled with banter.

"A French meal is not simple. We can fly to Paris and eat authentic private food. That's what we enjoy. Andre does this a lot, and I strongly suspect that he has a private plane at LaGuardia Airport Langley held his chin and said solemnly that Matthew could only be defeated. "Do you want us to call Andre? Can I borrow his private jet? "
