Chapter 492 - 237 Descendants of Old Friends (Monthly Pass Request!!!!)_3

"However, their descendants retained the Asku surname, and Lilani’s ancestor passed away peacefully at the age of 78."

As she spoke, Aveline seemed to have thought of something else, her tone pausing slightly:

"But according to family records, Lilani’s ancestor was in a long period of gloom, but after Sir Newton received Mr. Feiyu’s reply, she became much more cheerful. It’s said that before that, she was already saving money for a long journey."

"It seems... there was some connection with Mr. Feiyu."

Hearing this, Xu Yun remained silent for a long time.

A moment passed.

He relaxed his body, feeling a weight lifted from his heart.

Back when Little Niu said I wrote knife-wielding scenes, are you satisfied now?

Hands on hips, ask for votes!

"Aveline Asku?" Upon hearing the name, Xu Yun was momentarily frozen on the spot. Immediately, in his mind, images of Mr. William and his family came to mind. Asku. How long had it been since he last heard that surname? It must have been at least a couple hundred pages, right? Unexpectedly, in this world, he suddenly had a connection with them? On the way to Cambridge, Xu Yun actually pondered over possible people in this era who might intersect with his life. Among them were Stokes, Darwin, and even that couple in London. It’s not even an exaggeration to say that he had imagined having a lively conversation with Queen Elizabeth. But never did he think... that he would meet with the descendants of the Asku family. However, William Whewell was unaware of Xu Yun’s swirling emotions at that moment. Noticing Xu Yun seemed a bit absent-minded, he added: "Aveline’s ancestor was Sir Newton’s uncle William Asku, who made a fortune from ketchup and became a wealthy farmer, thereby improving his family’s somewhat impoverished life." "But a hundred years can change many things, the Asku family encountered a calamity at the end of the last century, causing many casualties among the clan." "In recent years, their numbers have dwindled, so there are only a few descendants remaining." "Aveline’s branch is considered a side branch of the Asku family, descending from William Asku’s youngest daughter, Lilani Asku’s off..." William Whewell hadn’t finished speaking when Xu Yun abruptly stood up and asked him, "Mr. Whewell, what did you say?" William Whewell was startled for a few seconds by Xu Yun’s sudden movement, but quickly regained his composure: "I said Aveline’s ancestor was William Asku, who became rich from..." "I was asking about the last part!" "The last part?" William Whewell looked increasingly puzzled, lifting his eyes to glance at him: "Are you talking about Lilani Asku?" Xu Yun nodded heavily. William Whewell lightly scratched his head, just about to speak, when Aveline interjected: "Lilani’s ancestor received a good education after William Asku’s fortune, and after graduating from university, married a classmate." "However, their descendants retained the Asku surname, and Lilani’s ancestor passed away peacefully at the age of 78." As she spoke, Aveline seemed to have thought of something else, her tone pausing slightly: "But according to family records, Lilani’s ancestor was in a long period of gloom, but after Sir Newton received Mr. Feiyu’s reply, she became much more cheerful.
