Cartoonist's Dream

The two middle-aged and elderly women in the boutique also have a strong western charm.

One of them, wearing a pair of breeches and a skin-tight leather jacket to help her stay in place, is the owner of the [Autumn] boutique.Her eyes are rounder, the corners of her eyes are slightly upturned, and a little wrinkle can be seen even when she is not smiling. She must have been very naughty when she was young.High forehead, plump cheeks, and thick lips.

- She looks very sexy.

Probably only Li Mu, who is also a middle-aged man, can give such an evaluation.

"Oh, Limu, Muzi, do you live here with Madonna?" [

A surprised inquiry came from outside the door, and the owner of the voice was talking to the owner Madonna.

"Yes, Professor England, have you two had dinner yet?"

Li Mu greeted them cautiously, maybe they sounded like an invitation, but there was nothing morally wrong in inviting the landlord and the professor to dinner.

"Not yet, we are going home to eat, are you planning to treat?"

Professor England knew it was not a treat, but he deliberately reminded him in a wrong way:

"When we say hello, you can't use the topic of dinner to say hello, just say good evening. Just talk about the weather, such as 'this rainstorm is so sudden, are you trapped?' and so on. "

Professor England is the professor of the Department of Mathematics who introduced Rimu to the school. His eyes are slender and full of grace; the two thick eyebrows and the small nose look a bit unnatural, like a picture with added Oil paint failure ink painting.Li Mu bet that she must have oriental blood, and it should be maternal.

Joan England's hair was a blonde-and-black brown that definitely didn't look dyed, and it fell in curls over her shoulders.A long face reveals a row of neat white teeth when greeting, a silver necklace hangs on the white neck that is only exposed by the high collar, and a crystal heart-shaped ornament hangs under the necklace.

Like other Western women, they are precocious but not easy to look old.Age engraves the mark of maturity and charm on them.

"Ah, yes, we have remembered the professor's teachings. It seems that it will take me a long time before I can do as the Romans do...but I can really treat you."

Limu greeted knowingly, nodded while pretending not to understand, and finally said stubbornly.

In Ms. England's impression of [Pear Wood], [Humble] and [Generous] were immediately bolded, and the boy gradually began to take shape in the few impressions she had.She smiled with satisfaction——

"Forget it, Muzi has hiccupped, and besides, haven't you two eaten... Although it can be judged from the house where you live in Madonna that you are very rich, in the end you are still using your parents' money."

Li Mu, who has left Nanhua, is just an ordinary child in the eyes of others, and the mark engraved on his head is only the champion of the American mathematics competition.Even if someone knew all of his achievements in detail, they would not immediately associate him with "Limu".It's as depressing as if the "emperor" was treated as "yellow clothes" when he left the imperial city.

Of course, if others think he has no money, he will not deliberately claim that he is rich.It is precisely because he is not well-known that he feels particularly at ease walking outside. When he leaves Nanhua, he becomes an ordinary passerby.

Muzi didn't want his romantic evening walk to be disturbed, so he intentionally made a gesture of eating very full, hiccupping and rubbing his belly impolitely.

Professor England, who was not so familiar with the two of them, of course couldn't read Muzi's deep meaning, but instead invited them:

"Are you going to visit Cambridge now? I don't think that's a good idea. Our country's shops close a little earlier than yours. Like Madonna's, they open at 9 or 10 and close at 5. Saturday is It closes at 4pm, many shops are closed on Sundays, all you'll see now when you go out is a closed shop. If you don't mind, you can come to my house and try the 'British Exotic', my steak and Baked potatoes are always amazing."

It sounds like Britain is a city without nightlife, Li Mu was stunned, unexpectedly this time it was really ugly.The food street in Nanhua is still crowded even at 1 or 2 o'clock in the morning.He and Muzi exchanged glances, they chose the latter between going upstairs to read a book and visiting someone else's house. [

"Extremely happy."

Li Mu nodded and replied.It is certainly a happy event to be invited home by a professor.I believe that no student will refuse such an invitation.The professor's home is near Newna College two blocks away. She originally came by bicycle and put the bicycle in the wooden fence outside the school. This time, she took the two of them across the school and the road home.

After bidding farewell to Madonna who was closing the store, the three of them stepped out of the wet road.

The streets shattered by the heavy rain looked exceptionally clean, and the rainwater drained quickly on the smooth pavement, and it was rare to see stagnant water caused by the unevenness of the ground.

Passing King's College along King Street, Joan was clearly thinking of two students.Abandoning the short and quick lanes one by one, and deliberately taking the two of them along the easily identifiable avenues.Walk 5 minutes from King Street to Nanshun to Trumpington Street, and sure enough, all the shops are closed.

Trumpington Street meets King Street directly, and nearby are some of Cambridge's oldest colleges.Follow the road past Catherine College.Turn left at a T-junction with a view of the Clock Tower, cross the road west from Trumpington onto Silver Street, and the cobbled road becomes a paved road.

Li Mu looked around curiously, he had never seen such a strange place, the shop on the right was facing the wall on the left.There are two bouquets of flowers on both sides of the top of the store door, and there is always an iron pole above the store, and a large blue or green flag is hung on the pole.

Being in such an environment that is very different from the original life, it seems to have come to an unknown world.

If I came to study in the UK alone, I would definitely be at a loss.

Li Mu thought quite emotionally.As an adult in his 30s, he would feel flustered when he came to this "alien world". Let alone those [-] or [-]-year-old children who came to study in the UK, it can be seen that it is not easy to be a turtle.

#follow me, keep to the left when walking, get rid of your habits in China as soon as possible, otherwise one day, if you are not careful, you may die...

England, who was walking in front of the side, led the way while privately teaching precautions.In her impression, perhaps many students from the East have made similar mistakes.If the habits of the East are brought to the West, walking on the road will easily cause people and vehicles to face each other. When avoiding death and jumping to the right, it is simply tantamount to courting death.

When I first came to England and walked on the streets of England, Limu actually had a thought in his heart, that is, walking on the left feels like before entering a western restaurant, compulsively thinking whether to "left the knife and right fork" or "left the fork". The right knife" is also tangled.In fact, as long as you stay in the big environment for a while, you will understand what you should understand.

Before coming to study at King's College, Limu had been to the UK several times, and each time she would stay in Sherrington for a day or two to try "replenishing magic" for his wife.Because he especially cherishes the hard-won opportunities, he basically stays in the hospital ward, but he has already learned some common living habits of the British.

If it wasn’t for always accompanying his wife, there would be no jokes about shopping at night. Cambridge is not the kind of big city where shops will be open until eight or nine o’clock... The three walked straight from King Street to Trumpington and turned to Silver Street. .

To the west of Silver Street is a river named Jianhe, and the streets on both sides of the river are connected by a wide bridge.The bridge has no name, so it can be called the Silver Bridge directly.Seeing the Jianhe River under the bridge and the land under his feet, the familiar modern poem appeared in Li Mu's mind:

【Gently I leave, just as I came lightly; I gently waved, like the clouds in the western sky, the golden willows by the river...】

It seems that we can only stand here and look at Mr. Xu Zhimo's back.

Due to the different times, even if Li Mu was on the scene, he only thought of this poem instead of understanding it.

Limu passed Jianhe along Silver Street, and on the right was Darwin College, whose gate prefix was naturally Cambridge. In contrast, kng'sollege King's College is still one of the most famous colleges in Cambridge University.Although I don't want to add [one] after the word [most], Darwin College and Queen's College are also famous.

Trinity College Cambridge has also had world-class celebrities such as Newton, Hawking, and Russell, and it is really difficult for King's University to dominate.As a student of a college, Li Mu is naturally no stranger to the history of his school.

In the 12th century, a group of monks came to settle in this flat and wet swamp, so the town of Cambridge was established. [

In the 13th century, two philosophers at Oxford University were accused of murdering a prostitute, and the Oxford City Court sentenced them to hang.Some teachers in Oxford protested, suspended classes and fled, some of whom came to the town of Cambridge.In a process of alchemical disintegration and reconstruction, they left and rebuilt the school in Cambridge.

In 1225, the teachers at Cambridge elected a headmaster from among themselves.

In 1231, King Henry III granted Cambridge a teaching monopoly.Until the 19th century, Oxford and Cambridge were the only universities in Britain.

In 1233, Pope Gregor IX also approved the teaching privilege of Cambridge, and Oxford, the eldest, did not enjoy this right until 21 years later.

In 1441, Henry VI built the King's College, and the college was completed by Henry VIII. It took nearly 100 years for the entire building to be completed.Among the graduates, Alan Turing is well-known in the world, and Xu Zhimo is well-known in China.

His wife Lu Hui's wish was for Li Mu to study at Cambridge. The King seems to be the most famous among many schools, so Li Mu chose the King.It was still difficult to get into Cambridge. Although he didn't show it on the surface, he was really grateful to Professor Joan England. (To be continued.
