Chapter 53: Think Beautifully
Western aristocracy emphasizes blood, in order to maintain the purity of its bloodline, so the aristocratic marriage will emphasize the right match, which causes the nobles to intermarry with each other.
Of course, the marriage of the nobles here does not mean that the marriage of close relatives is not large, and European countries are usually not large, but there are many nobles, such as the Duke of Marlborough in the Winston line, which is one of the twenty dukes in Britain except for the royal family, and there are more marquises, earls, and viscounts below.
It should be emphasized that intermarriage between nobles is not absolute, for example, Winston's father married the daughter of an American "nouveau riche", which is also an improvement on the genes of the Winston family.
It is indeed an improvement, according to the traditional British aesthetic, Winston's appearance is not bad, Winston's father Randolph Churchill is much worse, Randolph has not been good looking since he was a child, with a small head, protruding eyes, and short stature, which is a wonderful material for cartoonists.
The reason why Winston's appearance is passable is due to his mother, who is known as the "world's first beauty".
Roque doesn't know what Henry's mother looks like, but from the analysis of Henry's appearance, Henry's mother is at least at the level of "the world's first beauty", at least at the level of "village flower", and by Phyllis, the village flower has risen to the height of "the hope of the whole village".
Phyllis is indeed very beautiful, the kind that is even more beautiful than Ada, if Ida can play ninety, then Phyllis is at least ninety-five, and five points less is to prevent the loss of longing and unattainable.
"Phyllis, why are you here?" At the door of the police station, Henry's eyes widened, and Phyllis was wearing a long white dress with a corset, and from the position of the belt, it could be seen that Phyllis had a very good figure, the standard golden ratio.
Well, in fact, Roque noticed the suitcase on Phyllis's leg, and only glanced at Phyllis's figure by the way.
"Brother Henry, I'm coming to you, my father is going to marry me to that fat pig of the Alsop family, and you have to protect me." Phyllis has no sorrow and sorrow, and she is justified in saying that her brother is really omnipotent.
"You mean Henry of the Alsop family? He's very good, aren't you childhood sweethearts? "Henry, the Henry of Matilda's family, laughed and complained, and did not pity his sister at all.
Well, that's the normal sibling routine.
"What a fart! If you knew what disgusting things he had done, you wouldn't have said that, he fooled around with his maid half a year ago, and the maid was pregnant and kicked out of the house, and he cheekily said that the maid seduced him, which is even more shameless than you! Phyllis scolded two Henries at the same time, and Henry of Matilda's family immediately changed his face.
"Why am I shameless?" Henry raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes, and then looked at his sister, which was not cute at all!
"Don't think I don't know about your, General Habakak wrote to his father, saying that you were kicked out of the army for fooling around with women, wait, your father will settle accounts with you." Phyllis was triumphant, as if she had forgotten her situation.
"Hmph, do you think your father will let you go?" Henry's face was not red, and he did not spare his hand when he stabbed the knife.
"You have to help me, or I'll tell my father that you're fooling around with a widow in Cape Town." Phyllis remembered her situation, and suddenly her face was sad, fortunately there was a brother who could shake the pot.
"It's this guy fooling around with the Cape Town widow." Henry finally remembered Roque.
Uh, no, very bad, this guy is much more dangerous than the fat pigs of the Alsopes.
"I said Henry, aren't you going to introduce me?" Roque finally found a chance to interject.
"Well, Phyllis, this is my colleague Locke, don't underestimate him just because he's Chinese, the most beautiful and wealthy widow in Cape Town is her lover." Henry had bad intentions, and Roque almost wanted to scold.
Grace, grace, be graceful!
Roque muttered a few times in his heart, and just wanted to try to see if he could get a chance to hold hands, Phyllis looked disgusted: "A raccoon dog! ”
Well, Roque and Phyllis's first meeting wasn't very pleasant.
As a pure Englishman, Henry also had a house in Cape Town, the kind of wooden building on Government Street that cost 200 pounds, which looked good, but was dwarfed by Roque's house, with no 1.5 acres of yards, no fountains, no gardens and swimming pools, only two lawns in front of and behind the house with a combined area of about 50 square meters.
Because no one took care of it, the lawn was uneven, there was no grass in some places, and the grass was too vigorous in some places, and after looking at Roque's mansion and then looking at his own house, Henry suddenly felt a little uneasy, as if Roque was an English nobleman and a Boer himself.
"This is your home? It's ugly. "Phyllis's aesthetic is quite normal, and Henry's home is indeed ugly.
In fact, it's not just ugly, a single dog's home, ugly is not the most important thing, the key is dirty and messy, these are unbearable.
In the small living room, Henry's dirty clothes were piled up on the sofa, a few rolled paper towels were scattered on the ground next to the coffee table, and there were a few obvious handprints on the back of the sofa where a lot of dust had accumulated.
Uh, this posture-
Be sure to try Ida another day!
"No, I don't live here, it's a kennel, no, the kennels are cleaner than here!" Phyllis feels that there is no place to put her feet in this living room, although she is a little depressed now, but Phyllis lives in an aristocratic family, and she must have been dressed and fed since she was a child, which is different from Henry, a rough old man.
"When I go to my brother's house, shouldn't I help him clean up? That's your job, otherwise don't think I'll give you money. "Henry is very skilled in pit his own sister, what about how beautiful she is now? When I was a child, I didn't see the radish head of the yellow-haired girl.
"I'll give you money, you clean up!" Phyllis won't give in, unlike the big-spending Henry, most girls are good at managing money.
Also because she is a girl, Phyllis has had more pocket money than Henry since she was a child, and this time she came to Cape Town, Phyllis was also fully prepared.
"How much money do you have? This guy bought a great house for only £100, give me your money, let's buy this guy's house, I promise, you'll be satisfied. "Henry is not only pheating his own sister, but also his own brother-
"Hey, Henry, you can't do this, that's my house." Roque strongly objected, listening to Henry's meaning, that the house that Roque bought for 100 pounds would be sold to Henry for 100 pounds.
Think beautifully!
