Volume 1 Chapter 724 Chinatown
Mom... you lied again.
She wiped away her tears one by one, left the dressing table and returned to her room. After putting the face cream on the table, she sat on the bed without saying a word.
"Sister, what's wrong?"
Gu Jingjing noticed her abnormality and shook her head: "Sister, I'm just a little tired."
When Gu Jingjing heard that she was a little tired, she immediately asked her to lie down and rest. Her sister would always be very tired after dancing.
"I'm going to help my mother wash the vegetables."
Yi Yi didn't want to lie down, so she went out of the room to help Sheng Wanyan wash the vegetables. Sheng Wanyan immediately took her hands out of the water.
"The water is too cold. You'll catch a cold."
"Yiyi, don't touch the cold water. Girls can't stand the cold."
Sheng Wanyan asked her to go out and play, but Yi Renren left the kitchen, his eyes never leaving her, and he kept looking at her.
"Mother."
"What's wrong?"
"You are a girl too, why can you touch me?"
"Because mom is already an adult, she's in good health, and she already has you and your brothers."
Yi Yi didn't quite understand what she meant, but when he heard that she was in good health, he felt relieved.
"Yi Yi, a girl's body is very important. You have a nanny and an aunt at home, so you don't need to do these things."
"From now on, no matter who asks you to do housework, you can't do it stupidly, understand?"
"Why?"
Sheng Wanyan looked at her daughter's confused eyes and didn't know how to explain it to her. How could she tell her daughter what men were thinking?
She can't tell her daughter now because you can't lower your quality of life because of others.
You should not humiliate yourself because of others and give up your good life for others.
Because even if Sheng Wanyan told her, Yi Yi might not really understand it. Besides, there is a saying: The more you don't want your children to do something, the more they want to do it.
"Because you are mom and dad's baby, mom and dad don't want you to do housework, mom and dad will feel bad."
Yi Yi nodded and took her words to heart. She would definitely not give her parents the chance to feel sorry for her.
Sheng Wanyan decided to wait until Yi Yi was ten years old to educate her about the quotes and behaviors of scumbag men.
Sheng Wanyan cooked two dishes and a soup. Three people couldn't eat much, so two dishes and a soup were enough.
"Third Aunt, there is an art exhibition tomorrow. I want to go and see it with my classmates."
This was the first time that Gu Jingjing put forward her needs. Sheng Wanyan was planning to take Gu Jingjing and Yi Yi out tomorrow.
"Aunt Three wants to take you and Yi Yi out to play tomorrow. Which one do you want to go with?"
Gu Jingjing had some concerns. After all, there is no child who doesn’t like to play, and Gu Jingjing is no exception.
"It doesn't matter, just choose what you like."
"Then I'll go to the art exhibition with my classmates tomorrow morning, and visit you and your sister in the afternoon, is that okay?"
"Of course, it's settled."
Sheng Wanyan made the decision immediately, and Gu Jingjing breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want to make things difficult for her third aunt, so she would arrange her time herself.
The next morning, Sheng Wanyan took Yi Yi out. Louis was responsible for driving, and Sheng Wanyan wanted to take Yi Yi to Fifth Avenue for shopping.
There are luxury goods everywhere here, and there is also a BaiNaoHui. Sheng Wanyan has to take Yi Yi to have a good look at it.
"Mom, this place is so big."
"Yes, take a look and see if you like anything. You can buy it."
After hearing this, Yi Yi immediately entered a shop. The shop sold some decorative vases and other things, which Yi Yi liked very much.
"There's a chocolate maker up ahead, do you want to try it?"
"good."
Sheng Wanyan still thinks it is necessary to take children to do some handicrafts and cultivate children's hands-on ability.
Sheng Wanyan took Yi Yi to experience making chocolate, eating ice cream, and waffles, and also took her to buy a lot of things she liked.
At noon, the mother and daughter had lunch at a restaurant here, and then set off for Chinatown in the afternoon.
Gu Jingjing was waiting at the gate of Chinatown. When she saw Sheng Wanyan and Yi Yi arriving, she immediately went up to them and held Yi Yi's hand.
"Sister, is the exhibition good?"
“It’s beautiful, there are many good paintings, it’s amazing.”
"Then sister will also hold her own art exhibition in the future."
Yi Yi has no idea about the word modesty. She likes dancing, so she wants to go on stage. Her sister likes painting, so she should hold an art exhibition.
"You need to be a very good painter to hold an art exhibition, and I'm not that good."
"It doesn't matter, you'll be great when you grow up."
Gu Jingjing nodded, as if she had found her own direction in painting. She wanted to hold an art exhibition when she grew up! ! !
Sheng Wanyan listened to the two children's conversation without saying a word. Having one of them around could only bring benefits to Gu Jingjing and no harm.
"Come on, I'll take you inside for a look."
The two children immediately ran away. There were many Chinese shops in Chinatown, as well as some martial arts shops, etc., and this was originally the place where the Chinese lived in Country M.
Yi Yi and Gu Jingjing are both Chinese, and coming here feels like returning home. Whenever Yi Yi goes into a store, he or she starts chatting with the clerk or the owner.
"Uncle, did you make this?"
"Yes......"
The boss was speaking English one second, and the next second he sat up straight and looked at the two children in front of him.
"Little Chinese kid, take it and eat it. It's free."
"Uncle, no, we can't eat for free."
Yi Yi's words made the store owner laugh. This well-behaved girl even knew these rules.
"It's okay, it's okay. Uncle treated you."
Yi Yi didn't know what to do, so she quickly looked at Sheng Wanyan who walked in. Sheng Wanyan smiled and nodded at her.
"Thank you uncle, I wish you great fortune."
“Hahahahahaha, fine fine!”
Isn’t the main purpose of doing business to get rich? Yi Yi's words touched the boss' heart directly.
The boss also asked the clerk to pack some cakes and snacks from the store for Yi Yi to take away and eat.
Yi Yi took out her own chocolate from her schoolbag and gave it to the boss. After giving it to the boss, she took the food with both hands: "Thank you, uncle."
"Hahahahaha! What a polite doll."
The boss laughed out loud. In a foreign country, one would always feel more familiar with compatriots, let alone a child.
This child, when others gave her things, she gave gifts in return.
The two children left the pastry shop and went to look at other shops. The owner of the pastry shop stood at the door and yelled loudly.
"Old Li, the things those two kids bought are mine."
"Lao Cheng, the toys those two dolls bought are also mine!"
"Got it!"
Everyone here is Chinese, and the neighbors are very familiar with each other. It's like one big compound, and everyone can hear when you roar.
Sheng Wanyan also witnessed the harmony and mutual help among compatriots abroad, and felt deeply moved.
When she came here, she felt like she was back home. She was facing warm and simple Chinese people instead of the blond-haired and white-skinned M people.
