Chapter 645: Contrast (5200 Plus)
"Come, Steven, read with me...... The round is O, and the pointed is A......"
In the nursery, the nanny Jenna took Wu Ming's two younger siblings and amused them with toys, while Mrs. Stirling officially began to teach Wu Ming pronunciation and literacy. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The language system of this world is more similar to the Western alphabet, but there are slight changes, a little more cumbersome, Wu Ming has long been familiar with the language, as for these words and letters, a little effort will be memorized.
I just don't want to be treated as a demon, so I still have to deal with Mrs. Stirling with a match.
Even so, the talent he showed was enough to be called a genius.
"Very good, thirty-five letters, you can already pronounce ......"
Mrs. Stirling proudly said to Jenna next to her, "Did you see that?" My little Steven is a genius! ”
"This boy is quite clever indeed, ma'am!"
As a nanny, Jenna is not a servant, so there is no need to call Wu Ming a young master or anything like that, but it shows a certain equality, which is also a manifestation of social progress.
Of course, it is also possible that Wu Ming is lonely and unheard, with the wealth and status of the Stirling family, he can't afford to raise that kind of real maid, after all, to establish a personal dependency relationship and continue loyalty, this kind of accumulation, no matter where it is, needs to be educated and brainwashed by several generations, otherwise there will be a feeling of nouveau riche after all.
In the blink of an eye, Wu Ming's body was already three years old, and while walking like a fly, he also showed the strong curiosity that all boys should have at this stage, and explored the whole house under the cover of a baby, especially full of interest in the tall bookcase in James's study.
"On 100 Techniques of Salesman", "The Choice of a Successful Man", "The Debater", "He Became a Multi-Millionaire from a Newspaper Delivery Boy - The Autobiography of Franklin", ......"
Wu Ming stepped on the stool, ripped off a few books, and looked at the cover and was quite speechless: "It's all about selling eloquence, is James a salesman?" No wonder it's so busy every day that ......"
He was disappointed that he couldn't find any books on geography or history.
"Oh! Steven, what are you doing? ”
Mrs. Stirling finally noticed Wu Ming's small movements, let out a scream, and ran over to pick him up: "Be careful not to fall, Jenna!" Come and change Steven's clothes! ”
"Are you reading?"
She glanced at the sales brochure that Wu Ming had opened, and laughed again: "Don't mess with your father's things, he will be angry...... Today he has a rare rest, and our family is going out for a spring outing, enjoying a leisurely time in the riverside park, afternoon tea, cherry cake, and honey milk tea...... Little Steven, you can't eat too much, watch out for your teeth......"
Jenna stepped forward and changed Wu Ming into a sky blue plaid shirt, gray suspenders, and a pair of small black leather shoes.
If you add a gray peaked cap, it is really exactly the same as the Americans in the eighties and nineties in the previous life.
Wu Ming looked in the mirror and silently slandered in his heart.
"Alright, let's go!"
Mrs. Stirling, however, was very pleased with his attire, and drew a lace-trimmed parasol and pushed the stroller out of the room with Jenna.
Smack!
On the road in front of the garden, the black car was parked silently, and Jaime honked the airbag horn and made a screeching sound, looking very proud.
Being able to own a steam locomotive is undoubtedly a proof of financial strength, at least Wu Ming saw that Jenna had a very envious color in her eyes.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the good times are about to begin!"
James announced with a smile on his face, and quickly got out of the car again, opening the door for Mrs. Stirling, "Honey, watch out for the roof, don't touch the ......"
Whew!
The sound of the boiler resounded, huge white steam erupted from the rear of the car, and the car slowly drove down the road at about the speed of a horse.
The scenery on both sides quickly receded.
Reinforced concrete apartments and complexes, straight pines and cypresses and birches, more steam cars, and all sorts of ordinary people......
The warm and warm sun shines on the body, warm.
In a drowsy state, a little girl holding a small red umbrella and wearing a red dress, dressed like a princess, flashed out of the car window, although she didn't see her face clearly, but that sweet smile still moved Wu Ming's heart.
If before he seemed to live in a group of old Western photographs from the seventies and eighties, now the black and white of the photographs have faded away, and the whole world has become vivid.
"......It's nice to be able to travel through time and space, experience the differences of thousands of worlds, and appreciate the vastness and magnificence of the universe."
Wu Ming's heart suddenly rose with emotion.
……
After about half an hour's drive, Jaime's car went straight into the gate of a park and stopped on a green meadow by the river.
There are a few cars parked here and there on the side of the road, there are a few huge parasols by the river, a few people are fishing, and on the grass, several adults and children are playing games similar to baseball, as well as dog walkers and picnics...... All kinds of people occupy a space in the meadow, leisurely and pleasant, in stark contrast to the large factory work not far away.
"Jenna, come and help!"
Jaime removed several baskets, a parasol, and a large cloth from the car, and worked with Jenna to spread it out on the grass, and took out many snacks from the basket and laid them on the cloth.
"Yes!" "Yes!"
Brandon and Angelina stretched out their four small hands, their eyes fixed on the cherries on the cake, full of impatient taste.
"Huh...... Two little gluttonous cats, you can only eat a little bit of cream, Steven, you are the same, you can't eat more! ”
Mrs. Stirling chuckled.
Wu Ming stood on top of the soft grass, and the rare wind made him feel quite happy, looking at the blue sky, the white clouds, and the green grass.
If it weren't for the large number of chimneys in the distance, and the black smoke that obscured the sky, he might have been in a better mood.
Jaime seemed tired, and after eating and drinking, he lay down on the chaise longue and quickly took a nap.
Mrs. Stirling wisely did not wake her husband, but just basked in the sun leisurely, teasing Wu Ming's two younger siblings.
"Jenna, do you often come out to play at home?"
Wu Ming looked at Jenna, who was a little distracted next to him, and suddenly asked in a milky voice.
Now he showed a mind similar to that of a child of seven or eight years old, and spoke very logically, which was the benefit of the long-standing genius disguise, which the Stirlings accepted very happily.
"No!"
Jenna's eyes were a little confused: "Our family is very busy, my parents have to work every day, from morning to night, all the time, I have two older brothers and one sister, and I have to get up before dawn to deliver newspapers and milk to the street, sometimes hungry, and go to the garbage dump......"
"Huh...... I tell you what to do, and you don't understand! ”
Jenna turned her head a little apprehensively, and there seemed to be a few sparkles in the corners of her eyes.
Perhaps, for her, the current life of the Stirling family is almost like a dream paradise, right?
It's just that, with this movement of turning her head, her figure suddenly stagnated.
"Huh?"
Wu Ming also raised his head, and immediately saw a few small black dots in the distant sky, getting bigger and bigger.
"Mom, what's that?"
He tugged at Mrs. Stirling's sleeve and pointed to the sky.
"Airship!"
Mrs. Stirling looked up, "Maybe it's a carrier from some airline, but how can it get here?" Obviously there is no route opened, is it lost? Or maybe it's a storm? ”
Suspended in mid-air was a huge airship in the shape of an olive.
And, as the other party continued to get closer, Wu Ming gradually saw the whole picture of these airships.
They looked hideous, their bodies were painted black, and they had a metallic luster, and the top was painted with a layer of snow-white and sharp tooth patterns, like sharks opening their mouths, which made Wu Ming instantly think of the Kirov airship in a game in his previous life.
"No, that's not a transport, it's an armored ship! There are too many of them! ”
Mrs. Stirling's face changed, and she quickly shook her husband awake: "Wake up, dear! ”
"What's wrong?"
Jaime, who had been working all night, rubbed his eyes, there were still bloodshot in them, but when he saw the armored airship fleet in the sky clearly, he immediately jumped up: "This is an armed airship, why are they here?" Wait a minute...... Look at that flag, it's not our kingdom's fleet, it's the army of the Bauhinia Federation! ”
He screamed, his face was unprecedentedly solemn, and he suddenly picked up Wu Ming, and asked Mrs. Stirling to take the two children back to the car quickly, not even caring about the remaining large number of things.
"Damn, how could the armed fleet of the Bauhinia Federation come here, I have a bad premonition!"
Jaime's face turned pale, looking at his wife and three children next to him, and he barely showed a smile: "It's okay, the royal fleet of our kingdom is also very powerful, and it will definitely protect us!" Right! ”
He seemed to hypnotize himself: "Let's go back to the city first, there are anti-aircraft artillery there, and there is also the protection of the army and police!" ”
The car started quickly, threw out a rough flame tail, and rushed to the original apartment like a desperate escape.
And it was only then that more and more people saw the menacing empty boats, which undoubtedly caused a huge riot.
Screaming, fleeing, all sorts, and because of the fight for the road, a series of car accidents have been triggered......
Fortunately, because they were discovered early, the Sterling family did not get involved in these chaos, and returned to the apartment villa without incident.
Immediately, waves of police and troops appeared in the streets, loudspeakers reading the order of martial law, and in the middle of the night, the gas was cut off, and Jaime split the door and lit a fire, and the family gathered around the fire for an unforgettable night.
The next day, Jaime, who was out of the house, came back with a pale face: War - It's coming!
