I am a nobleman in England

Chapter 311 White beard, red hat, with a leopard head hidden inside

Ding Ding Dong, Ding Ding Dong......

Snowflakes are falling one after another, and the snowflake is dancing in the air, or flying, or circling, or falling straight and fast, and spread to the ground.

The entire Dunsford has become a white world with few pedestrians on the road. The abrupt Christmas music breaks the tranquility here, and the sound of horses’ hooves goes from far to near.

A decorated Christmas carriage dragged by two horses decorated with elk antlers appeared on the streets of Dunsford. On the carriage were three Santa Clauses wearing red costumes.

In Britain, the horse is the mascot and symbol of Christmas.During Christmas, you can see horses wearing Christmas hats on many occasions, Santa’s reindeer has also turned into horses, carriages in many tourist attractions, and horses that pull carts are dressed as "reindeer" with "antlers".

Every Christmas, children from all over the world will take out their socks the night before and hang them on the fireplace and Christmas tree.Because they believed that when they fell asleep, Santa Claus came in a sleigh pulled by nine reindeer from the northern snow country and secretly stuffed gifts into their socks...

The three Santa Clauses sitting on the carriage are undoubtedly the three brothers and sisters of Arthur, Eddie, and Edmond. They are very familiar, and the sound of music resounding through the sky completely broke the tranquility of Dunsford. Residents of many houses on the street stood by the windows. Before, looking at the Christmas carriage full of presents parked on the street, all faces were full of curiosity, doubt and consternation.

"Hehe, kids, Santa Claus is here to give you gifts!"

The music paused, and a Santa Claus shouted with a hearty laugh while holding the microphone.

"boom!"

As Santa’s voice fell, a door was opened. A five- or six-year-old boy ran out of the house wearing a sweater and slippers, and shouted with excitement: "Grande, you fool, I just said There must be Santa Claus..."

"Cole, you come back to me..."

Behind the child rushing to the carriage on the snow, a pair of anxious and frustrated parents chased them out in their home clothes. To be honest, they were really guarded against strangers who suddenly appeared in Dunsford. The bear child of his family is getting closer and closer to the carriage. There are three Santa Clauses on the carriage, two of which have already jumped out of the carriage. The parents are even more nervous.

Speaking of Santa Claus, it goes back many centuries. His prototype is a kind-hearted lord Jiao named "Saint Nicholas".This lord, who lived in the 4th century, is well-known for caring for his children and benevolent in charity. It is said that when his parents passed away, he distributed all his property to the poor in his hometown.

At that time, there was a kind-hearted nobleman. His wife died of illness, leaving him and his three daughters behind.The nobleman ran out of money for trying to invent.They had to move to a farmhouse, and his daughters had to cook, sew and clean themselves.

A few years later, the daughters gradually reached the age of marriage, but the father became even more frustrated because he had no money to buy a dowry for his daughter.One night, after the daughters washed their clothes, they hung Changtong wa in front of the fireplace to dry.

After Saint Nicholas knew their father's situation, that night, he came to their house.He saw from the window that the family had fallen asleep, and he also noticed the girls' Changtong wa.Immediately, he took out three small packets of gold from his pocket and threw them one by one from the chimney, just falling into the girls' long-term wa.

The next morning, the daughters woke up to find that their Changtong wa was filled with gold, enough for them to buy dowry.The nobleman was able to see his daughters getting married and lived a happy life ever since.

From then on, hanging socks on the fireplace under the chimney and putting gifts in the socks has become a tradition, and it has been handed down. Saint Nicholas also became the prototype of the Santa Claus who was later recited, and drilling the chimney became the story. The way Santa Claus gives gifts.

In addition, according to the "Bible", the three wise men from the East presented gifts and worshiped Jesus when Jesus was born, expressing their honor to this human savior.This is also one of the origins of the custom of Santa Claus giving gifts to children.

However, only children will believe that there is a mysterious Santa Claus in this world. Adults know that the so-called Santa Claus who drills the chimney has always been their father.

Looking at the child running to the carriage and the parents chasing after the child, Arthur with the snow-white beard took out a beautifully wrapped gift from the carriage and handed it to the child with ecstasy and raised his hands. Laughing with an old false voice: "Hello, Cole, Merry Christmas, this is a gift for you!"

"Ah! Grandpa Santa, do you know my name? Gosh, this is really cool. My stupid brother told me that there is no Santa Claus in this world, so are you really Santa Claus?"

"Haha..." Arthur stroked his white beard pretendingly, and laughed heartily, "Of course, kid, of course I am Santa Claus."

"Yes..." The Cole Bear kid hugged the present, looked at the Santa Claus dressed up by Eddie and Edmond with a confused face, looked up at Arthur and questioned: "Are they also Santa Claus? Isn’t there only one Santa Claus?"

"Haha..." Arthur laughed again, leaned down, stroked the snowflakes on the bear child's head, and explained: "Child, Santa Claus is not the only one I am, after all, there are many children like you in the world. , I can’t deliver all the gifts alone, so there are as many Santas as there are children in this world!"

"That... Then, can I be Santa Claus when I grow up?"

"Haha, of course, when you grow up, you will become a very good Santa Claus."

At this time, the child’s parents had been standing aside for a long time, but they found that the other three did not have malicious intent and did not stop their child’s behavior. After hearing the conversation between Arthur and the child, the parents looked at each other. With a smile, I felt more relieved about the three Santa Clauses in front of me, and put down my guard.

At the same time, many residents were in front of their windows, seeing everything that happened on the street outside, watching the happy and jumping children holding gifts and the pair who were thankful and shook hands with Santa Clauses. The couple, everyone dispelled the guard in their hearts.

"Crack, click—"

The doors were opened, and the children rushed to the Christmas carriage screaming and screaming like two halves.

"gift--"

"Santa, my gift—"

A large group of bear children chirped around the carriage to ask for gifts, jumping and jumping happily. Every child who received the gift was filled with a happy and bright smile.

And all the adults also stood in front of their door, looking at this warm and harmonious scene with a smile, many people picked up their phones and started taking pictures and videos.

Soon the distribution of the gifts was completed for a few minutes. After the children who received the gifts thanked Santa Claus, they scattered one by one. However, there were still a few older children staying. I hope they have taken a photo with Arthur in the Christmas carriage. .

"Which charity is this?"

"Hehe, it's not a charity, but Earl Arthur of the Boleyn family and his sister and brother."

"How did you know?"

"Look, the badge on the carriage, I have seen it before. It is the badge of the Boleyn family. I went up to confirm it before and greeted Earl Arthur."

"Ah, is it? Then I should also go to greet..."

The bear children left, and the adults began to come up in twos and threes, and greeted Arthur, thanked, and shook hands. The scene became more enthusiastic, and almost everyone of the adults came forward to take a group photo.

"Thank you, thank you everyone. We have to go to other streets and give gifts to other children. The weather is too cold. Please go home and don't catch the cold." Arthur has taken off his beard and said with a warm smile.

Hearing Arthur's words, the adults only said hello one by one and went home. But seeing everyone holding a mobile phone to make a phone call, Edmund knew that the next gift was given to Arthur and Eddie. It will be more lively.

The fact is also true, almost as soon as the Christmas carriage stopped on another street, the surrounding residential doors were opened one after another, and the bears rushed over in twos and threes, like a runaway Erha.
