Asnana villa.
Peter took Adriana and the kids back to The Alston family home, and Edward and Harlee set about making arrangements for New Year’s Eve.
By the time Peter and Adriana returned to the villa, the dinner had been prepared and the table was set with a sumptuous dinner, complete with dishes and aromas, like a gourmet feast.
“Hard work, guys.”
Adriana smiled gratefully and told the four men.
Because of the sudden death of the old man of The Alston family, Asnana villa, which was originally decorated with lights and decorations, removed all the New Year’s decorations and kept everything simple as usual.
“What’s there, we’re spending New Year’s Eve here ourselves.”
Eliza rubbed her stomach and smiled with a gentle smile.
“Okay, everyone, don’t just stand around, eat.”
Harlee greeted everyone to hurry up and have New Year’s Eve dinner.
Everyone was seated, and what should have been a night of laughter and reunion was somewhat depressing because of the death of Old Mr. Alston.
After a simple meal and giving the children their New Year’s money, seeing that it was almost time, Peter opened his mouth.
“Adriana, you take the kids and get some rest while I go back to the old house.”
As the eldest grandson of The Alston family, he had to be present for the funeral of Old Mr. Alston.
“Okay, you take care on the way.”
Adriana stood up and straightened the collar of Peter’s trench coat.
“Are you coming back in the next two days?”
Arrangements for the funeral matters, generally smooth if possible three days out of the funeral, but to find someone to count the time, there may be some changes.
“I’ll be back tomorrow at noon.”
Peter pondered for a moment and found a time.
“Okay. Helen, Luis, bye bye to Daddy.”
Adriana, holding HelenLuis, waved at Peter and watched him leave.
Old Mr. Alston’s funeral was on the fourth, the day Peter took Adriana and the children together and sent Old Mr. Alston to the cemetery of The Alston family, Old Mr. Alston worked hard for The Alston family all his life and was finally buried in The Alston family cemetery. The Alston family’s cemetery, is also considered complete.
Early in the morning of the fifth, Adriana had time to visit Old Mr. Soto and foster mother Thelma, because Old Mr. Alston’s death, for a while Adriana was a little worried about the old man, and saw that the two were well, and then put his mind at ease.
Waverly’s Neptune street, which was not supposed to be such an early handiwork event, was just a distraction to keep Rex’s attention from harassing Eliza.
Harlee approached a local group of hanbok enthusiasts and gave them sponsorship, so on the fifth day of the new year, Neptune street had a big hanbok event.
When Peter and the others arrived at Neptune street, they saw a group of young brothers and sisters in hanbok, walking back and forth on this street with smiles on their faces.
Seeing this scene, Edward suddenly had an interest in it.
“Vivian, buy a set of these.”
Edward pointed to the long dress worn by one of the beauties, light and elegant, very suitable for Vivian to wear.
Vivian followed and looked up, and also liked the Chinese costume, which looked really different from modern clothes.
“Come on, it’s in the store over there, let’s go over there.”
Adriana found several hanbok stores nearby, where people on the street wear hanbok, and the stores have styles for people to try on.
A few women walked in, and the store was hung with all kinds of colorful short coats, curved trains, coats and skirts as well as men’s robes and deep clothes, giving people a feeling of having traveled to ancient times as soon as they walked into the store.
“Wow, these clothes are so nice, how come I didn’t even notice them before?”
Vivian walked up quickly and picked it out.
“It’s not too late to find out, Helen, Luis, do you have a favorite?”
Adriana looked at the hanbok hanging in front of her eyes with joy, while Helen and Luis looked and touched it with amazement.
“It feels like a new world has opened up.”
Eliza has changed into a large-sleeved Chinese dress, light and airy, with a taste of cold exile, watching everyone in awe.
Several men stood in the doorway, handsome and tall several handsome men, standing in unison, very eye-catching.
A few ladies in hanbok around came up to talk to him, not caring that Edward was holding a child.
“Handsome guys, you are so good looking, are you interested in joining our Hanfu interest club? We often have similar activities, and I can help you sign up if you want.”
The beautiful woman enthusiastically came up, holding the brochure in her hand, and kept introducing it to them.
Peter’s face was sullen and his eyebrows were slightly furrowed.
“No need.”
He cold eyes, thin lips lightly open, only said three words.
The words are as good as gold.
The handsome and peerless face with a clear and crisp, with the innate noble breath, like a ruling on the gods of life in general, the compelling aura oppressive let people breathe.
Edward, not knowing what was on his mind, held his child and listened attentively to the propaganda of the hanbok beauty.
“What does Edward want?”
Harlee looked at Edward with surprise, in front of Vivian, and started to have an outside mind?
“Learn about the styles of hanbok for your own benefit.”
Peter had a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth, and Harlee sensed something was wrong at first glance.
“What does that mean? What benefits?”
Instantly thought of some special scenes in his head, also followed by a wicked smile up.
“I can’t see it, Edward is quite thoughtful.”
Harlee teased, rubbing her chin.
“I’ll go buy Eliza a few sets to go too.”
With that, he ran towards the store, Peter raised his eyebrows and followed along into the store.
Suddenly, the hanbok procession started to parade through the streets, with a huge group of people in a neat formation, filling up the whole Neptune street.
Edward dodged, was caught in the middle of it, a variety of gaudy wide sleeves in his eyes, skirts shaking his eyes.
So that he could not recognize the exact path to leave, the crowd was hit back and forth a few times, he could not force his way out, and was trapped for a time.
Suddenly a woman in large sleeves crooked to in his body, right into his arm holding Ashtyn, he subconsciously pushed people away, a man around him from behind hit him, he stumbled.
His hands were empty in an instant, his sharp eyes shot away, all the eyes were all kinds of gorgeous and complicated clothing, he held Ashtyn’s hands, empty as well.
With his fists and feet, he knocked several men and women in fancy clothes around him to the ground, pulling each one away from the others in broad dress and searching for Ashtyn, who had just been snatched away.
“Stop all, there’s a child snatcher here.”
He pulled a couple of personnel in hanbok and shouted towards the whole line.
The team did not stop, he directly hands towards the crowd kicked over a few feet, after knocking down a few people, the team instantly stopped.
“Everyone can’t leave, my child has been snatched and all of you are suspect.”
Edward was gloomy and emitted a lurid aura of gloom.
“What does your child have to do with us …”
Some people were unconvinced and wanted to argue with Edward, but when they met his scarlet, murderous eyes, they were silenced and shut up.
The commotion over here has silenced the entire street.
Adriana and others, who were picking out their hanboks in the store, came out curiously.
Vivian saw Edward walking back and forth with an anxious look on his face and had a hint of foreboding in his heart.
“Edward, what’s wrong?”
Vivian ran quickly to Edward’s side and asked sharply.
Edward’s face was white and gray as he looked at Vivian, his mouth squirmed, and his eyes were red before he could say anything.
“What the hell is going on? You talk?”
Vivian, distraught, looked Edward up and down and found the problem.
“Where’s Ashtyn? Where’s Ashtyn?”
She trembled her lips, grabbed Edward’s hand and kept shaking it to pursue the question.
Edward’s eyes fell with tears.
“Ashtyn … is missing.”
He spat out six words from between his lips with difficulty, saying the whole person is powerless.
“Why is it missing? How did the good Ashtyn disappear?”
Vivian directly broke down, tearful towards the crowd rushed over, saw someone holding a child rushed over to see, like a crazy person.
Edward rushed after him, weaving back and forth among the crowd just like Vivian.
Peter and other people standing by the side were dumbfounded, Edward was holding the baby properly, how come he suddenly disappeared?
“Let’s help find it together. Brother, you take your sister-in-law home with Helen and Luis.”
