Golden Greenery

Just after Christmas in 2010, it snowed in Vaduz. Although there was only a thin layer, it could hide this stamp town among the snow-covered Alps.

This snow came very strangely. It didn't fall on Christmas Eve night, and it still didn't fall when the Christmas bells rang the day before yesterday. This winter is not cold. Everyone thought it would not snow. But just yesterday morning when people opened their windows, they found that it had come quietly.

It came as promised without any warning, just like that magical love.

When Zhuo Yang and Uncle Albert drove to Zurich in the morning, Kou Kou straightened his collar. "Brother Zhuoyang, drive slowly on the road."

"Don't worry." Zhuo Yang said, "There is plenty of time, don't rush, I will be careful." He kissed her forehead.

Mydel Swinburne looked at them from the window on the second floor. When she saw Zhuo Yang looking up, she smiled sweetly.

The four members of the Swinburne family arrived in Vaduz yesterday afternoon, and others, all relatives of the Coco family, including her legendary love cousin Gavin Philip, all arrived in Vaduz yesterday afternoon.

These people are all members of the Joseph tribe in a broad sense. Although not all the family members rushed back to the family ancestral home on Christmas Day, basically everyone in charge of the family came.

The whole family only gathered together for Christmas last year. There was no need to reunite this year, but because of the big news brought by Zhuo Yang, Archduke Frank Joseph of Austria notified every family to come back together for a total.

Zhuo Yang is relatively slow to react to girls' ages, otherwise he would not have turned a blind eye to the colorful flowers around him when he was in middle school. But when he saw Midel yesterday, he suddenly realized that Midel was indeed a big girl.

Midel, who will turn 16 in a few days, is like a flower waiting to be bloomed. The plump bones can no longer hide the charming floral fragrance. In terms of appearance alone, Midel is slightly inferior to Kou Kou at the same age, but her more outgoing and enthusiastic personality makes her easier for people to get close to. If the story of Kou Kou and Zhuo Yang were replaced by Mi Del, they would not have been waiting for each other for six years in a daze. Maybe it would take less than three years for them to come to him desperately.

The last time I saw Midel was last summer. At that time, Zhuo Yang felt that she had a little connection with him, but Midel was still Midel. Seeing each other this time, he was in a trance, and it seemed difficult to connect the beautiful girl in front of him with the little girl who jumped up and down when seeing him in those years.

Midel and Kou Kou also had a little relationship. She used to be her cousin's follower, and she also liked to imitate her cousin's smile. When she and Kou Kou were together, they would always squeeze into the same bed at night. But this time when she came to Vaduz, Medel asked for a separate bedroom and no longer had to pester her cousin to whisper nonsense in the middle of the night.

Children from aristocratic families have their own sports that they are relatively good at. Mydel's brother Jefflin is a volleyball setter, and Mydel also chose a modern compound bow when she was 11 years old. Although she does not have Keke's keen talent for bows and arrows, Midel does not have the obsessive-compulsive disorder to get a ranking. The original intention of sports is to strengthen the body and cultivate temperament.

But last fall, Midel, who had been practicing compound bow for four years, suddenly gave up and became interested in women's foil. According to Jefflin, Mydel is indeed more suitable for foil, and her progress in this event is much more obvious than that of compound bow. I have been practicing for nearly a year and have achieved some results.

Zhuo Yang smiled and said to Midel: I know a little bit about the Bagua sword technique, do you want us to have a fight with the wooden sword?

Jefflin said: Go, go, that's not the same thing. She can chop and chop with her sword, but she can only stab with her fencing skills. Coupled with the difference in body size and strength, Midel can't even take a single move.

Midel pursed her lips and said: That's not necessarily the case...

She also said: "I don't really want to practice foil anymore, it's not fun."

"Why?"

Midel was unwilling to answer, so Jefflin took over the topic: "The foil teacher who has been coaching Midel,

I suddenly resigned in the summer. He said there was something going on at home, but he didn't want to tell the specific reason. Our family promised to raise his salary and said we could wait until he finished handling his family affairs, but he insisted on leaving and was not willing to stay for another day. "

"Midel is very angry, so she doesn't want to practice anymore."

"Hey, the foil coach is gone. Do you want me to help you find an Olympic champion from South Korea?" Zhuo Yang said.

Medel still pouted and shook her head.

Zhuoyang added: "How about I teach you the nunchaku. Once you practice it, you can defend yourself. It is more practical than the foil sword. Don't worry, I will never leave without saying goodbye, nor will I give up halfway. You see, I don't charge for it. Business can be done.”

Midel smiled happily, but still shook her head. She knew that Zhuo Yang was just teasing her.

"After the foil coach left, we could no longer contact him." Carrying Mydel on his back, Jefflin told Zhuo Yang in detail. "Midel likes that teacher Schmolin very much, and he also likes Midel very much, but he just leaves. Midel thinks that she is too stupid and has let the teacher down."

"Hey, it's not a big deal if you don't practice if you don't practice." Zhuoyang said: "It means that Midel still doesn't love foil, otherwise she would give up because of such a trivial matter. It's up to her to play whatever sports she likes. If you don’t eat based on this, it doesn’t matter if you don’t like any exercise.”

.

Watching Zhuo Yang and Uncle Albert's Rolls-Royce leave, Kou Kou turned around and walked into the small building. Vaduz is an hour and a half drive from Zurich Airport. Uncle Albert is very familiar with this road. If everything All goes well and they will return in the afternoon.

Midel also came down from upstairs. "Sister Kou Kou, when are you and Brother Zhuo Yang going to get married?" After asking in a low voice, Midel secretly glanced at her uncle sitting on the sofa at the other end of the hall.

"I'm afraid it will have to wait until four years later." Kou Kou curled her lips slightly and shrugged. "Midel, will you be my bridesmaid then?"

"Four years?" Midel tilted her head and thought: "...I'm already 20 years old, so let's talk..."

.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhuo Yang returned from Zurich on time and took the guests he went to greet. When they stepped off the black phantom, Kouba, Koumo and others were already standing waiting at the porch.

The two guests walked forward quickly, and Zhuo Yang introduced the bearded middle-aged man walking in front: "This is His Excellency the Archduke of Austria."

The tall middle-aged man came to Father Kou, stood upright, and then bowed down in the standard knightly etiquette of kneeling on one leg.

"Your Excellency, the Archduke of Austria, the Queen of Convicts, Andrei Swedovich Zygrinski, has come to see you."
