No one knew that there was such a conversation between Ye Wanqing and Mr. Gu. When Ye Wanqing came back, Mumu and Lin Lin were in the hall downstairs, and they were chatting curiously with a blond foreign butler.
This butler is quite a gentleman. Gu Zhenmu can already talk to him fluently in foreign languages. Ye Wanqing noticed that he did not speak English, but a minority language.
Ye Chenlin looked at Gu Zhenmu enviously from the side, his hands hanging down uneasily twisting the corners of his clothes, revealing his timidity, nervousness and uneasiness.
“CanyouspeakEnglish？”
Ye Wanqing pushed the wheelchair over. As soon as he saw her, Ye Chenlin's eyes immediately shone with light, and he pulled her cheerfully and enthusiastically: "Mommy, look, there is a foreign uncle here!"
There are also foreign English teachers in the kindergarten, but the teachers do not teach one-on-one in class. Ye Chenlin has never had such close contact, so he is very curious and excited.
"Ma'am, if you find it inconvenient, I can actually speak Mandarin."
The housekeeper spoke in fluent Mandarin. Ye Chenlin exclaimed and looked at him with bright eyes. He was so admired. In his age, Ye Chenlin had never seen a foreigner with such correct pronunciation in Mandarin.
Ye Wanqing was also a little surprised. Through communication, she learned that the housekeeper's name was Brooke, who came from an island country with a very small land area and population.
Brooke expressed his admiration for the Gu family, a century-old family. He was open-minded and didn't have so many worries when speaking. He first asked Ye Wanqing why there was such a big gap in language talent between two children who obviously looked the same.
Ye Wanqing did not think this was a talent gap, but because Ye Chenlin did not receive as good an education as Gu Zhenmu at the beginning.
Ye Wanqing did not explain too much to Brooke. She only asked him to play a game with her two children. As a housekeeper, Brooke naturally agreed readily.
The game is very simple. It is a common game in kindergartens where you draw and I guess. The teacher sets the question. You can name any object and ask one child to draw it and the other child to say the English word for the object.
Brooke quickly found paper and pen to make the cardboard needed for the game. In order to cultivate Ye Chenlin's ability, Ye Wanqing specially asked Brooke to add a game rule. Those who guess the objects can only use English throughout the process, including asking for help.
Ye Chenlin's spoken English was poor. After hearing the rules, he immediately raised his hands and strongly demanded that he be allowed to draw. After Brooke refused, he said he would stop playing.
Children of this age have a special respect for teachers. In kindergarten, Ye Chenlin did not dare to talk to the teacher like this. Now Brooke is just a temporary playmate for him, and Ye Wanqing has no time to take care of him recently. His little temper It was revealed.
"Lin Lin, you said you wanted to give up before the game even started. This is a very lack of courage."
"I'm good at painting, why can't I paint?"
Ye Chenlin retorted loudly, his brows filled with impatience, like a spoiled naughty child.
Ye Wanqing had just finished talking to the old man and promised to leave in the future and never disturb Gu Jinyuan and the three children. Ye Chenlin's current reaction stung her tense nerves.
She was particularly afraid that while she was away, Gu Jinyuan would be busy with work and would not be able to give Lin Lin and Sensen the correct guidance in life, causing them to become arrogant and arrogant rich second generations who thought that as long as they had money, they could do evil.
She didn't want Lin Lin and Sensen to be too strong and compete with Mu Mu for family property in the future, causing fratricide. She also didn't want them to be unable to adapt to the Gu family's extravagant life, and would sink themselves into a life of drunkenness and debauchery.
She worried too much, and became frightened when Ye Chenlin showed any bad behavior.
"Your spoken English is not good. Now that Brooke is here, you can practice your pronunciation very well. Why do you resist? Don't you know that such an opportunity is rare?"
Ye Wanqing raised her voice uncontrollably. The last sentence she asked was for Ye Chenlin, but it was for herself. In the future, she would have fewer and fewer opportunities to play games with her two children like this. This might even be the last time.
"I'm just not as smart as Brother Mumu or as good at speaking. I don't want to say, Mommy, why are you forcing me?"
Ye Chenlin was also angry. He already had his own system of thinking and logic, and his emotional awareness was also very keen.
After returning to the Gu family's old house, he always felt inferior and envious. The knowledge and etiquette shown by Gu Zhenmu were far beyond his comparison.
He only wanted to buy delicious biscuits for his grandmother, mother and Sensen to eat, but Gu Zhenmu was learning how to be a good manager and how to manage a company.
It's far away to tell them to manage a company now, but Ye Chenlin knows that the gap between him and Gu Zhenmu is so huge that except for their faces, he and Gu Zhenmu have nothing in common.
He knew that he had to integrate into the Gu family and this unfamiliar environment, but he was afraid that he would live in Gu Zhenmu's shadow in the future and never find his former self again.
He didn't want to play this game anymore. Ye Wanqing's forcing made him sad. It seemed that no one in the world could detect his fear and anxiety, and no one cared about his feelings.
The more he thought about it, the sadder he became, Ye Chenlin turned around and ran away. Ye Wanqing didn't want to get used to his temper, so she shouted sternly: "Ye Chenlin, stop!"
After being a mother for five years, she had never said a harsh word to them. Today was the first time she used such a commanding tone.
Ye Chenlin stopped and turned around. Because he was close to the door and against the light, Ye Wanqing couldn't see his face clearly. She could only hear his soft and milky voice announcing: "I stopped calling that name a long time ago." , my name is Gu Chenlin now, you have no right to control me!"
A sword sealing the throat is nothing more than that.
Ye Wanqing sat blankly in the wheelchair, her blood began to flow backwards, her whole body was weak and cold, her breath was filled with sparks, and her internal organs were burning, and she almost suffocated from the pain.
She thought that she was ready to let go and leave. She thought that she had built an iron wall and could no longer be hurt. However, these angry words broke through the city and penetrated her heart and soul.
Her children now bear the surname Gu, and she is no longer qualified to take care of them.
Years later, they won't even remember they had a mother like her.
The color on her face suddenly faded away and she was as pale as paper, but Ye Chenlin didn't see it. He was immersed in his own sadness and ran out.
"Brooke!" Ye Wanqing said with all her strength: "Please help me keep an eye on Lin Lin and don't let anything happen to him."
Knowing that the security of the Gu family's old residence was very good and nothing would happen to Ye Chenlin, she still said this.
It was a child she had conceived for ten months and endured countless pains before giving birth. Even though her heart was injured, no part of it was intact. How could she really be angry with him?
