This scene gave Han Li a different feeling. He sighed in his heart that the boss of this company had a really big imagination. Most people could not handle such a scene.
Then Han Li became a little confused. How did the boss come up with this arrangement?
It feels like watching a hazy movie. Could it be that the boss is a director?
No, this cabin seems to be the same as the confessional in some churches, except that the window has been made smaller.
And the clothes, layout, and style of the waiters on the first and second floors, could it be that the owner of this bar is some tall and powerful clergyman?
However, the situation outside made Han Li give up thinking about it temporarily. If Eleanor Nixon continued to jump like this, she would catch a cold. He had to hurry over to give her some warmth.
When Han Li stood up and was about to open the door to go out, he discovered that the door was actually locked from the outside.
Eleanor Nixon heard the sound of Han Li pushing the door, turned back and smiled, reached out to turn off the bedside lamp, then hummed an unknown tune and opened the door of the cabin.
Without waiting for Han Li to speak, Eleanor Nixon stood on tiptoe, put her arms around Han Li's neck, pressed her body against him, and spoke softly.
"Brave and handsome prince, I am willing to be your princess and stay by your side in the dark night."
Han Li: "Prince? No, I am a knight with guns and roses ready, ready to serve Her Royal Highness the Princess at any time."
After Han Li finished speaking, he lowered his head to prove himself with actions, while hugging her and slowly walking towards the bed.
The following scene is described by "Jing Yang Yan Boss".
That is why angels don't need to wear clothes, because they have wings for protection. Only when nuns take off their clothes can they have a chance to grow wings.
Eleanor Nixon is just like the nn (nun) she just cosplayed.
She flew high into the sky as if she had wings, like a bird soaring and circling in the clouds for a long time, as if she was traveling to another time and space.
It was already half past twelve in the evening when Han Li returned to the hotel. This was the latest time he had returned from a bar since arriving in England. There were two and a half reasons why he returned so late.
First, this was the most expensive time for Han Li since he came to England. In addition, Eleanor Nixon, a cultured person, was good at speaking. Whether she was chatting or communicating, her words and voice made people feel comfortable.
Second, because Eleanor Nixon’s knowledge and conversation style were different.
If someone like her were in a bar in Renton or Edinburgh, they would basically just go there for fun. If they met someone they could talk to, they would have an in-depth exchange with each other instead of charging any money. This made Han Li a little curious about her situation.
But at first Eleanor Nixon was tight-lipped and refused to reveal anything no matter how he guided her.
However, after Han Li let Eleanor Nixon fly freely in the sky, he took advantage of the other party's distracted state and asked a seemingly unintentional question.
Eleanor Nixon said that she was a student at St. Andrews Seminary, but it was never easy to get a good education, especially in a seminary.
It was like this before and it is still like this now. The world seems to have changed, yet it seems to have not changed.
In the past, most women were nominally called “Shang D brides”, but they could only serve as nuns, and the composition of nuns was very complicated.
At that time, nuns were roughly divided into four levels: "choir" nuns, nuns, secular nuns, and field nuns.
Choir Sisters: They are considered the management or potential management of the monastery. They are qualified to learn knowledge, read and write. They are the core of the entire monastery. Their food, clothing and accommodation are the best, just like the abbess.
Nuns: They can study the Bible, but they are responsible for the hygiene inside the monastery. They have to get up at three o'clock in the morning and go to bed at five o'clock. They have to pray seven times a day and give up the secular world to communicate with God. Their food, clothing, and housing are slightly worse.
Secular nuns: They are generally responsible for the hygiene and work of the monastery's outer courtyard. They also have to run errands for the dean or the nuns in the inner courtyard and treat the illnesses of nearby residents. In short, they are similar to handymen, and their food, clothing, and accommodation are even worse.
Field nuns: These people just have the title of nuns, but they do the same work as farmers, taking care of the monastery farm, vegetable garden and livestock every day.
If these field nuns encounter monasteries in poor conditions, they don't even have a nun's uniform, and it is impossible to discuss them as normal nuns.
Why are nuns, who are all known as "Bride of the Supreme Being", divided into several levels?
The answer is that these nuns came from different backgrounds.
Those choir nuns and sisters were basically all daughters of various noble families, large and small, and most of them were from the "eldest line".
However, they are not valued within the family and have no inheritance rights because they are from the "eldest line" of the family. When they want to get married, the head of the family has to pay a large part of the dowry in order to maintain the family's face.
Therefore, many nobles chose to spend a little "sponsorship fee" to send their daughters to monasteries when they were about to get married, so that they could wear white veils and learn how to become noble brides.
This can not only avoid the family having to pay a large dowry in the future, but also demonstrate one's respect for the "Lord" and win praise from the church. It is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.
There was a precedent of nobles sending their daughters to monasteries, and later there were cases where nobles sent their unappreciated sons to monasteries to study to become priests. This was also a way of announcing to the public that they were depriving them of their inheritance rights.
Even though these choir nuns were sent to the monastery, their families and parents were still there, and they would donate some money and property to the monastery every year and provide some living assistance to their daughters.
It is precisely because of this that the choir nuns not only enjoy the best treatment in terms of food, clothing and housing, but also that some families become more and more prosperous and they provide more help to their daughters.
Therefore, among the choir nuns, there were many who wore gold rings, pure silver crosses, various jewels, silk scarves inlaid with gold and silver threads, expensive squirrel fur coats, and robes decorated with lace made of gold and silver threads.
It is for this reason that when the monastery sings, holds mass, or holds any major events, it is these choir nuns who are in charge, and then gradually rise to the position of abbess through competition.
Some of the choir sisters whose families quickly fell into decline or did not receive support from their families devoted themselves to serving the Lord, but most of them took another path to maintain their lives.
They use their previous relationships, identities, and the sacredness of being nuns to seduce other nobles and wealthy people to invest in them.
With the blessing of their noble status and the sacred halo of nuns, they soon formed a result similar to the "suspension bridge effect", which made many people invest heavily in them in order to achieve their own ideas and appease their restless hearts.
With the help of these investments, many people have become fashion pioneers and lovers in the eyes of the public.
Those among them who are not smart can only enjoy glory for a period of time, and will no longer enjoy glory when they grow old and lose their beauty.
Those smart people will become the abbess of a monastery as soon as possible while they are young. In this way, they will have no worries and their future life will be more comfortable.
Of course, those choir nuns who are surrounded by wealthier and more powerful people have more autonomy in choosing a monastery.
At the very least, they could ask their "suitors" to help them build one, buy large tracts of farmland around it, and rely on the rent and donations from nobles and suitors when they came to the monastery to pray to ensure their future life.
Not only did the church ignore this situation, but it secretly supported it. First of all, the donations from these nobles could make the church more financially sufficient and deepen the church's rule.
In addition, although some of these nuns have made the three vows of giving up wealth, beauty, and will, indicating that they will concentrate on serving the "Lord" in the future, only a few of them can actually sever ties with the secular world.

It is just like that in normal times, but if these choir nuns or heirs of monks' families die unexpectedly, the church will agree to let them leave the monastery and return to the secular world to join in the fight for inheritance and title.
With the secret help and support of the church, such a battle would generally go very smoothly.
After those former nuns and monks successfully regained their titles and properties and became nobles, they not only had to pay large sums of money to the church to express their gratitude, but also to further expand the influence of the church.
Therefore, the church always turned a blind eye to the children of nobles who were sent to monasteries.
No matter what the final outcome is, it is a sure win for the church, and even a win-win situation.
These words were long in writing, but only a short time was spent speaking. After saying these words, Eleanor Nixon took a breath and continued to talk about the current situation.
The situation is much better now than it was back then, but it is still difficult for women studying in seminaries to obtain positions as pastors or preachers after graduation, and it is even more difficult to be assigned to a monastery with good treatment.
Especially these better positions are mostly held by women from certain internal families, nobles, or declining noble families. Unless ordinary people have outstanding achievements, they need to have enough money to use connections.
Later, Eleanor Nixon learned about this bar through the introduction of her schoolmate, and learned that the second floor here was recruiting talented special waiters. She herself majored in history and philosophy in school.
History is a series of stories about things that happened in the past, and it is perfect for chatting with people.
Philosophy is essentially the rational activity of people understanding and knowing each other.
This made Eleanor Nixon feel that she was very suitable for this job because she could not only earn money but also put her knowledge into practice.
Nowadays, young people all over England go to parties or bars at night, during which they basically drink and dance. If the atmosphere is right and they like each other, that's all that happens.
This common situation also made Eleanor Nixon feel that she should apply for this job even more, because she could also drink and dance here without spending any money and she could also get paid.
As for the in-depth communication between the two of them, under Han Li's coercion at the appropriate and critical moment, she also expressed her inner thoughts.
Eleanor Nixon said that such exchanges often occur when young people go partying or partying in bars.
It's better to give it to others for nothing.
If Eleanor Nixon had said things like her family was poor, her mother was sick, her father was a gambler, and her brother was studying, Han Li might have wanted to persuade this prostitute to become a good woman.
But her words reminded Han Li of the huge difference between the folk customs of the two countries. What he considered to be a serious matter was nothing in the eyes of others.
After that, Han Li no longer had any thoughts of sympathy for Eleanor Nixon. He first praised her to the top of the world, and then she fell down freely and fainted.
Of course, Han Li learned a lot more from Eleanor Nixon, so he stayed in St. Andrews for two more days and visited several places he had not originally planned to go along the way.
The next day, when it was still dark outside, Han Li was awakened by his biological clock.
I practiced Xingyiquan's boxing stance and the Spring Breeze and Rain technique, and it was not yet completely light when I finished the exercise.
Han Li made himself a cup of tea and sat down to read a book. After daybreak, he went outside to eat a simple meal.
Next, Han Li did not check out, but drove the RV towards a certain place.
It is said that it is very interesting there, and the most important thing is that Han Li can experience
