“...... So, mom, I'll take you for a while. While the Whitehouse sisters are chattering with the Ren sisters about their future, Nadia and Tanya are also chatting about Tanya's future after graduating from college, "When you are familiar with the various processes, Tanica will take over her mother's place." ”

"Mom, you're still young. Tanya didn't want to get into work like this, she only turned 18 in a few days, which is the age to enjoy life, "And, if I'm right, Natasha will also take Aunt Vera's place in the hospital, so you want us to take over your business?"

"It's a test of whether you can be independent from us, and that's what your dad meant. Nadia emphasized the latter point, "Mom only needs to attend a few board meetings and take some of the board members' salaries as pocket money. Walk in the woods every day, ride horses, hunt and enjoy your retirement. ”

"Mom is so relieved of me?"

"Although I still want my daughter to continue to be a little girl, the child has to grow up. Nadia thought of the 20 years of grinding with Lin Yilong's ears and temples, and also from an ivory tower "little girl" to an old castle working hard to run the family business, although she believes that Nadia can live independently without them, but always wants her to live better, "If you can pass this assessment, then just like we have proved your ability to take charge of yourself, we will be relieved." When the time comes, whether you want to develop your own career or continue to be a 'good girl' at home, it's up to you. ”

"Well, I'm willing to take on the challenge. Tanya knew that she couldn't change her parents' decision, and accepted Nadia's arrangement for her, "When does the assessment start?"

"We're not going to tell you when it's going to start, we're not going to tell you when it's going to end. Nadia replied, "You have to find the right question first, and then the answer, which is also part of the assessment, and as a mother, I can only ask you so much." ”

"I see. Tanya pondered for a moment and replied.

Someone knocked on the door, and Lin Yilong came.

When the younger sisters were three years old, the younger sisters moved from the Bracken Farm to their home in Kerey, West Gramorganshire, for one reason that the Brecken Farm was too far removed from the "middle class" life. In Kire, because it is known as the wealthiest community in all of Wales, it is closer to the values of Lin Yilong, who prefers to place them there rather than the near-"isolated" Bracken Timber. As for him, as Katie was running in Surrey and Amy was performing in London, he was running along both ends of the M4 motorway, spending the shortest time at his home at Bracken Yard.

"Let's get ready for lunch. Lin Yilong instructed, "After all, this is the first time this small family has reunited." ”

Lin Yilong doesn't like many people's gatherings very much, but this will be the way it will continue in the future, as the head of the family, he can't help but accept it, and even as the only link, he must also play a role in organization and coordination.

After informing all the daughters in person, although the Whitehouse sisters were still a little unable to let go, the Ren sisters, who had known each other for several months, still appeared in the yacht's dining room in youthful dresses.

Lin Yilong did not sit on the main seat at each end of the table as usual, but sat on one side, Nadia and Vera sat on his right, Amy and Katie sat on his left, and his daughters, according to their age, sat opposite him from right to left, very quietly waiting for their father to toast.

Everyone at the table was very restrained, including Lin Yilong.

"My daughters will officially graduate from their respective schools next summer, so as your father, I think it's time to get all the family together. Lin Yilong was wearing a very formal white suit, with a white bow tie around his neck, stood up very solemnly, and said to his lover and daughters with a wine glass full of grape juice, "No matter what happened before, but we are now close relatives, a family, of course, a family should respect and love each other and help each other, as for Dad and me, although I don't ask you to understand my way of life, but what I want to say is that I attach great importance to the sincere feelings with everyone seated, and I hope you can stay happy and happy in the rest of your life." Good luck for the future. ”

"Good luck to the future!" the daughters all picked up the drinks in front of them, drank a little, and then officially started the meal.

The starters were uneventful, similar to the £20 dishes on the main street – the starters were creamy mushroom soup with beef liver, the main course was salmon steak, the dessert was cheesecake, and coffee and tea were put at the end – the edible gold leaf, sturgeon caviar, marbled beef and the like that are common in high-end dining were absent, and as for the drinks, because no one drank them, the white grape juice drinks that were ubiquitous in the shops were on the table.

"Where the hell does Daddy live?" asked Polly after the crew had poured coffee for everyone and made sure that there was no one else.

"You know the town of Mastach, right?" asked Lin Yilong.

"Just saw this place when I was at the station but never been. Polly replied.

"North of Masach to the west of Breken Park, it's your father's land. Lin Yilong was a little proud when he answered this question, "Actually, Polly and Cellly, you once went there to learn to ride a horse during a holiday, but now you don't remember it." ”

"We remember my dad living with my grandparents in a very depressed town. Natasha teased Lin Yilong on the side, "I thought Dad was the kind of man who couldn't afford to receive unemployment benefits." ”

"I'm sorry for making that impression. Lin Yilong kept smiling kindly, "However, do you think your mother Vera is a person who is desperate for love?"

"I always thought so, but now I'm not sure. Natasha stuck out her tongue cutely, and was glared at by Vera before retracting slightly.

"However, Natasha, there is nothing wrong with you saying this, because your father and I do live on subsidies. Lin Yilong still explained with a smile, "It's just that the amount of this subsidy is a little bit higher, and what you see now is a little bit more." ”
