It's just that I want to get to know these French guys, but there are some small troubles.

Alan didn't want to take the initiative to make friends with them, as that would seem like he was asking for favors and his purpose would be too obvious. Given the nature of these French guys, they might even give him the cold shoulder after hearing his name.

If you want to get to know this group of people, you can only rely on introductions from others, but...

When Allen saw Spencer who was still reading the eulogy in front of him, he curled his lips. He probably couldn't count on this guy. When they met today, Allen felt that this loser was still blaming him for beating him some time ago. With this mentality, he probably couldn't expect him to introduce "new friends" to him.

Now there is only one other person left with some hope.

Alan turned his head slightly and looked at the person sitting in the first row at the front, wearing a black dress - Diana!

Tsk tsk…

Some time ago, her men chopped off her lover's hands and feet, and she also robbed her lover's father's property. This...

Alan sighed imperceptibly. He had offended both the brother and sister, but fortunately, he had not offended them seriously. Besides, they were still relatives. He would wait and see. Maybe Diana was generous and would not resent him so much now. Anyway, when they met and talked some time ago, her mood seemed to be much better.

Thinking of this, Alan made up his mind that after the funeral, he would ask Diana for help to make some connections.

…

Great Brinton Church, Spencer Family Cemetery.

In a solemn atmosphere, a group of guests dressed in black gathered together and took turns to see the old earl off for the last time. Even the crown prince, Mr. Cha, walked up to the tomb with a bouquet of flowers and handed them over with a solemn look on his face, then whispered a few words in front of the tombstone.

After several of the old earl's closest people had gone up.

Alan also took a bunch of small white flowers and gently placed them in front of the old earl's tombstone.

The tombstone reads, Edward John Spencer (1924-1992).

Think about it, the old man was only 68 years old, in the prime of his life, who would have thought that he would go to see God like this.

Alan felt a little sad when looking at the old earl's tombstone. He still had to ensure his good health. No matter how big the family's industry, how high the title, or how many pounds he had, he would not live that long and would have no time to enjoy them. Wouldn't all this be wasted on the younger generations?

I also thought of my father and elder brother who died in an "accidental" car accident.

At this moment, Alan's fear of death deepened a little bit. The restlessness that had accumulated in the past few days seemed to dissipate all at once along with the words on the tombstone.

Think about when the old earl was young and got married, the Queen, Prince Philip and the Queen Mother all came to attend the old earl's wedding in person. His wedding was a sensation at the time. Who would have thought that the Queen, Prince Philip and the Queen Mother are still doing well, but the old earl is gone...

The Queen, Prince Philip and the Queen Mother did not attend the funeral. They did not like the atmosphere of bidding farewell to a friend, so they only allowed Crown Prince Charles to represent the royal family to attend the funeral.

…

"Child... don't be sad. Everyone will die. The only difference is sooner or later. Edward is just tired. He is going to rest first."

When Alan was walking with his head down, a very pleasant voice suddenly interrupted his thoughts. He looked up and saw this...

hiss……

"Hello, Mrs. Renee."

Alan looked at the old lady in front of him and thought for a moment before recognizing who she was.

This is the old earl’s widow, Renee Spencer, but she is not Diana’s biological mother. She is the old earl’s second wife, but she is much more beautiful than the previous countess.

However, the Countess at this time was wearing a black silk hat, a black veil on her face, her hair was combed a bit like Thatcher's, her hairstyle was very beautiful, and she had a warm smile on her face. She thought that Alan was sad looking at the old earl's tombstone, so she came to comfort Alan.

But her smiling face made Alan feel a little...scary!

How can a woman smile at her husband’s funeral after her husband dies?

There's something wrong. It's okay if you just laugh by yourself, but when you see others sad, you come over to comfort them. How can you be so careless?

…

After saying hello, Alan didn't know what to say. He didn't like to meddle in other people's business, but faced with this situation, he really didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Are you wondering why I could still laugh at Edward's funeral?"

Seeing that Alan looked a little strange, Renee still talked to Alan with a smile on her face as before.

"Well... everyone has their own way of doing things. It is extremely impolite to casually comment on someone you don't know, so... Madam, I don't have such an idea at all."

Although he had some criticisms about the Countess's behavior in his heart, he couldn't say it out loud. So Alan pretended to be a very gentleman and gave a brief explanation.

"Haha... Sir Allen, you are indeed a gentleman. I have heard of you before, but it doesn't matter. You seem to have not been to Althorp Manor many times. This time... just stay here for a few days. By the way, you can also spend more time with little Spencer."

Mrs. Renee smiled and nodded to Alan, extending an invitation.

"this……"

Alan looked into the Countess's eyes. She should be aware of the fact that he had beaten Spencer some time ago, right?

Under such circumstances, she also invited herself to stay at Althorp Manor.

That……

Suddenly, an idea flashed in Alan's mind, and he secretly praised the old guy for being so thoughtful.

Although the Spencer family still has a male heir, they probably can't count on Spencer anymore, and Diana...

Haha, in some cases, she is not as good as Spencer. Moreover, after the old earl's funeral, their Spencer family will face the collection of inheritance tax from the Ministry of Noble Affairs!

In this situation, it really won’t work if there is no one capable person at home.

…

And Alan...

He is a very good candidate. Not only did he go through the complete process of inheriting the title a few years ago, he is also very experienced in inheritance tax. Moreover, he has a bad temper and is very strong. Many people have been talking about him recently, and he is also a relative of the Spencer family.

As long as Allen stayed at Althorp Manor for a few days, theoretically, Allen would be equivalent to a small stabilizing force, able to stabilize the Spencer family and intimidate those staff members of the Ministry of Aristocratic Affairs who were like mad dogs.

The Countess is a woman and has no right of inheritance, but she obviously has arrangements for the Spencer family and is very concerned about it, so...

That's why she made this invitation to Allen, which seemed strange but was actually an invitation for exploitation.

…

Alan figured this out and glanced at the Countess with a smile. This was a good idea, so good that it made Alan envious. He didn't have this treatment when he first returned home.

but……

If he could be taken advantage of so easily, then what was the point of his life? So what if we were all relatives?

If you have something to say, you should say it clearly. If you owe someone a favor, you should make it clear. Trying to use Master Allen's reputation to bully others is a bit childish.

…

"Madam... When I came here, I told Spencer that if there is anything the family needs help with, please let me know at any time. I'm busy here recently, so I won't stay at the manor."

Listening to Alan's words, the smile on the Countess's face paused slightly. The subtext of Alan's words was not that he was going to ask for benefits, but that he specifically pointed out that he had already greeted Spencer.

But the Countess thought about little Spencer's character and thought that he might be too busy hiding from Allen now, so how could he let Allen stay at home?

Thinking of this, the Countess continued to smile, but her words were a little bitter: "Then I'll trouble you, Alan. Little Spencer is still immature. There are some things that you need to teach him more."

"good!"

Alan took a step back, nodded in respect to the old lady of the outstanding temperament and concerned family, and then put on his hat.

…

"I just saw you and Renee talking?"

After the funeral, Mr. Cha took William and invited Alan to walk back to Althorp Manor together.

Althorp Manor in the distance stood on the lawn of a large plain. The large grassland in front of his house was used for grazing sheep in the past, but now... the Spencer family has become rich, and of course they no longer graze sheep here, so it has been abandoned.

As Boss Cha spoke, he looked at the wasted space with a look of regret.

He was a man who liked to do farm work and grow flowers and plants. He hated to see people wasting land, especially this kind of well-growing grassland.

If this land was in his hands, he could personally cultivate a garden of hundreds of acres and plant all kinds of flower beds.

…

"Your Highness...Madam Renee..." Alan thought about the Countess who could still smile even at a funeral, and could only comment: "Madam Renee has a really good attitude."

"Hahaha... Do you think she's a little weird? I heard of her when I was young. She was a well-known socialite in the London aristocratic circle. She was most famous for her calmness and elegance at all times. If she wasn't Earl Spencer, would she have been able to marry Renee? After Renee divorced, her suitors lined up from London to Paris!"

“…”

Alan blinked, wow...

Think about the Countess. She seems to be in her sixties now. Even at this age, there are not many wrinkles on her face. She looks like the kind of person who, even though you know she is old, is still an elegant old beauty.

Tsk tsk tsk... This is called a good foundation. Coupled with her that strange temperament that Boss Cha mentioned, she is still very attractive to older men. It's just that the age difference between them is too big. If she were a few decades younger, Alan might have been attracted to her.

…

"She wanted me to stay at Althorp Manor for a few days, but I said no."

Alan reported to Boss Cha honestly. Since he asked, Alan told the truth. It was not something shameful.

"Oh……"

Listening to Allen's words, Boss Cha narrowed his eyes, and in just a few seconds he figured out the trick, and sneered, "She is loyal to the Spencer family."

"hehe……"

Alan smiled awkwardly and glanced over. Little William was walking next to him and Boss Cha with his little face raised, eavesdropping. When he saw Alan looking at him, William stuck out his tongue at Alan.

“…”

If your dad wasn't right next to you, I would have kicked you.

Alan clenched his right fist and raised it suddenly. William subconsciously thought that his cousin was going to hit him, and he was so scared that he trotted to the side.

…

Boss Cha walked in the front, and the three of them formed a triangle on the lawn and walked towards Althorp Manor. As if sensing the movement behind him, Boss Cha turned his head left and right, looked at Alan and William who seemed to be playing, and smiled.

He likes this atmosphere very much. In the past few years, Allen has been responsible for taking care of the children. They have not made much progress in their studies, which are all taken care of by the royal teachers he sent. But in terms of life, Allen is generally living a good life with William and Harry.

…

"Your Highness... When I came here, I met a Jordanian prince. He wanted to make my acquaintance and handed me his business card. I don't know why he wanted to see me."

Alan didn't want to talk more about the Spencer family, so he took the initiative to change the subject and asked Boss Cha about the Jordanian prince.

If you have a plug-in like Boss Cha who is like the "grandfather in the ring" around you, you would be in vain if you don’t use it!

…

"Oh...you mean Hussein? I asked him to attend the funeral. Heh...people in his family like to hang out with the nobles, regardless of the occasion."

Speaking of the Jordanian prince, Boss Cha looked disdainful.

Although they are all princes, and the Jordanian prince will go further and become the crown prince in the future, are the Crown Prince of Jordan and the Crown Prince of Britain comparable?

Just like Spencer, they instinctively look down on these Middle Eastern people because the first people that Britain supported in the Middle East were these stray dogs.

How can the owner look down upon the dog?

…

After walking a few steps, Boss Cha thought for a moment, as if he was afraid that Alan would look down on the Jordanian prince like he did, so he turned his head slightly and said, "But Jordan is still quite obedient now. If Hussein wants to get to know you, you can communicate with him. Now over there...ah..."

When he thought about America's increasingly extended hand in the Middle East, Boss Cha had no interest in talking about Jordan. Not everyone can understand the feeling of watching a kingdom being broken up and taken away bit by bit.

"Oh...Okay, I understand Your Highness!"

Alan nodded as if he understood, not quite. He didn't know much about the political situation in some regions, and was considered a scumbag. Since Boss Cha gave a general direction, Alan dared to do it with confidence.

Jordan……

Boss Cha doesn't like it, but Alan does!

We are all from the Middle East. As the old saying goes, once we put on a headscarf, no one loves us. But we spend dollars like crazy and everyone calls us dad.

Faced with this group of wealthy dogs, now that I have a chance, I must make at least some money and take advantage of them!

…

Near Althorp Manor, Alan turned his head and looked towards the east side of the manor. There was a dense forest over there. Through the woods, he could vaguely see a small lake in it, and there was an island in the middle of the lake.

It looks quite artistic.

Looking at the big manor and the scenery, Alan sniffed and comforted himself.

There is a river in front of my house, which is more advanced than this small lake!

When my new house is built, I will have something like this too!
