Chapter 838 Reserve a Daughter-in-Law for My Son

Seeing George VI again, the other party still didn't have a good face, and he still couldn't forgive what the robber in front of him had done.

On the contrary, the queen and Elizabeth were happy with Li Zitao's arrival. The air raids made the atmosphere oppressive and unable to breathe.

As a girl who was only 14 years old, this war seemed even more cruel and terrifying.

Although their lives in the manor are still the same, Elizabeth will see many wounded every day, and the once beautiful London is shrouded in gunpowder.

Flames and harsh air defense sirens have become an indispensable part of daily life, and avoiding bombing is even more exhausting.

Elizabeth has not seen her friends for a long time, which makes her very unhappy, and at the same time worried about their comfort.

However, her father and mother just told her that everything would be fine, but they didn't tell her what was going on outside.

"Uncle Charlie, has London been destroyed?" The air raid siren had disappeared, and Elizabeth pulled Li Zitao to the lawn, looking in the direction of London with melancholy eyes.

It was her home, she has many fond memories, and this city is the pride of Britain, and no British person would want to see it destroyed in the fire of war.

"No, it's just a small injury, and it will pass soon." Thinking that when there was no air raid, people still continued their ordinary lives in the past.

Auctions, community activities, wartime volunteers, etc. are still going on, and Li Zitao feels that 'London' will not be destroyed.

"It's burning every day, and bombs are falling...I can see the buildings that have been blown up, and those are precious pieces of history!"

"My dear, the history and symbols of London are never expressed by any building, but by people... Do you understand?"

Li Zitao pointed to his heart, and looked at her with a smile, as if he wanted to convey his inner emotions to the depths of her heart.

"I think I will understand." Elizabeth nodded half-understanding.

"That's good...look at the gift I brought you!" He was dragged to the lawn by Elizabeth to have a heart-to-heart talk before he arrived.

Taking the box from Bai Xue, Li Zitao put the beautifully packaged box in front of her and said, "Open it and have a look."

"It looks big... and beautiful, and I think it must be a big surprise!" Elizabeth chuckled as she unwrapped the package as she watched him.

Li Zitao leaned back and lay on the grass, did not answer her question, but let her discover the surprise by herself.

"Wow~~" When Elizabeth opened the box and saw the silver tea set in countless origami and ribbons, her eyes lit up.

"They are so beautiful... like my grandmother's tea set in my grandfather's time!" Elizabeth gently stroked the lines on the tea set with her hands.

"If you go to Sotheby's, I think the appraisers will lose their jobs." Li Zitao said with a playful look.

With a sweet smile, Elizabeth murmured thoughtfully: "They look very familiar, where have I seen them?"

"I think it's in the collection of the royal family. This is the beloved tea set once used by Queen Victoria!" Li Zitao said casually.

He doesn't know whether he loves her or not, anyway, it's up to him to decide, as long as Elizabeth likes it.

"I love them so much...Uncle Charlie, thank you for the gift!" Elizabeth said, turning her head and kissing him on the cheek.

"Haha, as long as you like it, when you come to the United States, I can ask Aiden and Mason to show you the collection at home, which will definitely make you reluctant to leave."

Li Zitao smiled heartily, and looked at Elizabeth with gentle eyes. The father-in-law became more and more satisfied the more he looked at his daughter-in-law!

If Mason could really marry the Windsor royal family, the Li family's seemingly peaceful but actually embarrassing situation would be broken immediately.

In the future, it may become a link between East and West, which is of great significance to Li Zitao.

As he grew older, his homesickness became more and more serious,

My heart will always involuntarily miss the far east.

According to the news from Hualian (Huaguo), the war situation in the Far East is still very difficult. The United Party and the Red Party have reached an agreement to jointly fight against Japan first.

It's just that the thoughts of the leaders of the two parties cannot be conveyed well, and internal conflicts continue. Moreover, in this era, Japan is the real overlord of the Far East.

The current battle situation still focuses on avoiding large-scale battles, mobilizing the power of the masses, and at the same time actively looking for foreign aid to increase the tilt of the war balance.

The weapons that had been secretly passed through Hong Kong and Jiang have been successfully imitated by the arsenal in the Far East. Although the stability and accuracy cannot be achieved, at least they can be popularized on a large scale.

In terms of imitation ability, Li Zitao really admires the ability of Chinese people. Sometimes he thinks that the day when human beings step out of the earth, the whole universe will probably tremble under the perverted imitation project of my Dahua country. .

"Uncle Charlie...Uncle Charlie." Elizabeth shook his arm to wake up Li Zitao who was in deep thought.

"En? What's the matter?" Li Zitao turned his head and smiled apologetically.

"Can you tell your father and mother, let me live in America for a while?" Elizabeth raised her head and looked at him expectantly.

It seems that Li Zitao's temptation has worked just now. Elizabeth is very interested in art and other collectibles, and she is also interested in America.

"Uh..." Li Zitao was a little embarrassed, and asked him to tell King George VI, without even thinking about it, he knew what the result would be.

Seeing his embarrassed expression, Elizabeth also thought of the relationship between her father and him, and lowered her head in a hard-to-cover disappointment.

"I thought about it." Li Zitao suddenly called out, "Maybe you should call Mary and let her make the invitation...London is very unsafe now, isn't it?"

"Yes, that's a great idea, I'm going now." Elizabeth laughed and picked up the gift and ran to the manor.

Not long after she left, Li Zitao was lying on the lawn basking in the sun, the smell of gunpowder smoke in the air brought a different experience, Her Excellency the Empress walked over from a distance.

"Your Excellency, good afternoon." Li Zitao got up and held her fingertips lazily, leaning forward to make a virtual kiss on the back of his hand.

"I've said it many times, Charlie...call me Bovis, this is not a palace." Bovis looked at him with a friendly smile, "Let's walk together."

"Okay." Smiling and nodding, the two walked forward side by side.

"I apologize to you for the attitude of Albert, he is just too tired, you know, the dignity of the royal family and the whole country is on him." For Povis, her heart is hanging on her husband and daughter.

However, after her husband became King George VI, her heart became more and more inclined to her daughter, and she became more and more disappointed with the most honorable husband in the whole of England.

Sometimes Povis has to be thankful that Britain is now a parliamentary democracy. If he had been born in the Middle Ages, there would be another brutal king in history.

But in front of outsiders, she still has to maintain her husband's dignity, because he represents not only herself, but also the British Empire and the Windsor royal family.
