Demon Golden Boots

Chapter 280 Wedding and Funeral

Isabella loves Huaguo culture and has always wanted a Huaguo-style wedding.

Finally came the day of the wedding.

In front of the seaside villa, a large row of cars parked.

Alger's family is here.The old friends of the Coventry team, George Sr., Edda, Manla, Alexander, and Juan are here.

The new friends of Manchester United are here, Woodward, Ferguson, Mourinho, Ibrahimovic who is recovering from injury, reserve team coach Butt, Lukaku, Pogba, Matic, Rashford. . . . . .

Football not only changed the life trajectory of Liu Yun, a 46-year-old middle-aged man, but also allowed him to make many friends who are sincere and sincere.

Isabella's parents, both French, immigrated to England when they were young and to the United States when they were old.They also traveled from California to their beach house in Manchester.

Those friends in Huaguo also called to congratulate Liu Yun.

Isabella was wearing a red cheongsam and was doing makeup in the bedroom on the second floor.

Liu Xiaoyan was helping Isabella with her hairstyle.

Liu Xiaoyan wore a long purple dress, dressed like a real princess.Pinned to her breast was a diamond brooch given to her by Mrs. Hudson before she died.

Isabella suddenly grabbed Liu Xiaoyan's hand: "My little princess. I'm a little scared now. A new marriage, a new life... People always have fear of the unknown."

Liu Xiaoyan patted Isabella's chest: "Not afraid, not afraid. Mom is not afraid!"

Isabella was startled: "You just called me...Mom?"

Liu Xiaoyan has never had a mother since she was born. She has long regarded Isabella as her mother in the days when she gets along with her day and night.Isabella is an enlightened Westerner, so Liu Xiaoyan naturally regards her as her best friend.

Liu Xiaoyan kissed Isabella on the cheek: "Yes! Mom! Now you are my mother!"

The wedding was held in full accordance with Huaguo tradition.Liu Yun even found a Huaguo wedding master of ceremonies from Chinatown in London through the owner of Zaike restaurant in Coventry.

"Worship heaven and earth!"

"Two thanks to the high hall!"

"Bye husband and wife!"

"Licheng!"

shouted the wedding master of ceremonies.

Liu Yun stared at his bride Isabella.A pair of bright blue eyes looked forward to shine.The cheongsam set off her mature temperament and proud figure just right.Liu Yun thought in his heart that Isabella might really be a fairy bestowed upon him by God.

The second aunt and second uncle sat on the parents' seat, tears of happiness flowed from their eyes.They watched Liu Yun grow up.They knew how much Liu Yunyou had suffered as a father and mother these years.

"Happiness to our old lieutenant and beautiful bride, cheers!" cried Woodward, lifting his glass.

"Cheers~" All the guests responded.

There was a smile on everyone's face.That is a sincere blessing to Liu Yun and Isabella.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, all the guests dispersed sparsely.

Suddenly, an old man in his 70s dressed in black appeared at the door.

The old man walked up to Liu Yun: "Hello, old lieutenant. My name is Bernie."

Liu Yun didn't know the old man.He said, "Hello. What can you do for me?"

The old man said: "That's right. I am the son of old Major Franco. He passed away yesterday. Before he died, he made a will and donated all the winnings from the lottery to the Coventry Club. At the same time, he hoped that You can attend his funeral. The funeral is in two days."

At the beginning, Liu Yun ran into the old Major Franco during the float parade that won the FA Cup in Coventry.The lottery ticket has been returned to him.

The 92-year-old Major Franco has been a Coventry fan all his life.A few months before his death, he was able to see Coventry win the FA Cup. This may be God's will in the dark.

Although the Hua Kingdom is superstitious about teaching the Dharma, it is very unlucky to meet with weddings and funerals.Liu Yun is an out-and-out atheist.

He immediately agreed: "Two days later, I will definitely go to his funeral to express my condolences."

———Underscore————

Liu Yun has achieved great success in the Premier League.Fans in Huaguo are calling for Liu Yun to join the national team.

A certain association couldn't withstand the pressure of public opinion. Finally, the new national football roster was announced, and Liu Yun's name was on the list.

Liu Yun learned the news through Weibo.Two hours later, he received a call from Huaguo: "Hello, are you Liu Yun?"

Liu Yun replied: "Yes, who are you?"

"I am Wei Dahui, the team leader of the national football team. Now I officially inform you that you have been selected for the national team. Three days later, the national team will gather at the Jianghai base to prepare for the friendly match against Honduras. Please report on time."

"Three days later?" Liu Yun hesitated, but the team leader hung up the phone.

After counting the time, Liu Yun turned on his mobile phone and studied the next flight.If you have attended the funeral of the old Major Franco, you will be able to catch the nearest flight to Yanjing, and then take a car to the Jianghai Base in Hanbei.

Liu Yun confirmed again and again that there was still time.Entering the national football team is a big deal for Liu Yun.Being able to win glory for the country is the most proud thing for people born in that era.

Two days later, St George Military Cemetery in London.

Major Franco Sr. was a soldier who participated in World War II. He is eligible to be buried in St. George Military Cemetery.

Wearing a black suit, Liu Yun stood in front of the grave with a crowd of mourners.Among the mourners, two were also in their 90s, and their chests were covered with medals.

The coffin of old Major Franco lay beside the grave.

Fifteen guards of honor stood aside with guns.

A British captain in uniform drew his sword, stood on his chest, and shouted loudly: "Roll call of the [-]nd Light Infantry Battalion, Prince of Wales Royal Regiment, British Empire!"

Fifteen guards of honor shot down their shoulders.

The British captain shouted: "Major Franco!"

Naturally, no one answered.

The British captain shouted a second time: "Major Franco!"

Still no answer.

The British captain shouted loudly: "Major Franco, [-]nd Light Infantry Battalion, Royal Prince of Wales Regiment, British Empire!"

Still no answer.

Then the British captain pointed his sword obliquely to the ground: "God save the queen! Fire the gun!"

All those who came to pay their respects took off their hats.Only the two veterans covered with medals were wearing military caps and saluted in the direction of the coffin.

Fifteen guards of honor fired their guns into the sky.

The captain of the British Army once again stood with his sword on his chest: "Major Infranc, the Second Light Infantry of the Royal Regiment of the Prince of Wales, British Empire, please rest in peace! God bless the Queen!"

Two honor guards retracted their guns, walked to the coffin, and put a British flag on the coffin.

Six guards of honor lifted the coffin and placed it in the tomb.

Major Franco's son, Bernie, placed the medals his father had received during his lifetime in the tomb.

These medals represent the achievements of Franco Sr. in World War II.

Veterans don't die, they just fade away.
