Chapter 383 Long Aotian

Compared with before, Ada looks more plump. The previous Ada was a little thinner. In addition, there was always a dismissive indifference on her face, which made her look a little deserted.

Now he looks a little fatter, his body curves are more thrilling than before, his face is more flushed, and his gestures are more charming.

"I haven't congratulated you yet. I'm sorry. I couldn't face it correctly at the time. It's much better now. How is Phyllis?" Ada still lives at home in Pretoria. During her absence, There are also people here to take care of it, so Rock is not worried that Ada will not come back.

"It's almost been a year——" Rock still hasn't forgiven Ada for leaving without saying goodbye. If Ada doesn't give Rock a proper explanation, Rock will return to Johannesburg after this meal.

"Has it been so long?" Ada pretended to be stupid on purpose, looking a little smoky and flattering while holding the wine.

Ada's current age is the golden age for a woman to fully display her charm, and Phyllis is still somewhat young now.

"Where have you been this year? I asked Scarlett, but she didn't tell me." Rock touched the cigar prepared by Ada, not sure whether to light it or not.

Ada put down the wine glass, came over with a sweet smile, picked up the cigar and handed it to Rock's mouth, and then offered to light it.

"I'm in Cape Town, that idiot Luo Yi is far behind you, I'm very happy, you performed well this year—" Ada still slipped her mouth.

It is estimated that Scarlett is Ada's eyeliner next to Rock.

When Ada approached, Rock vaguely seemed to smell something, so Rock's face became very ugly.

"I need a child, but I'm not sure if you want it or not. I've learned about your Chinese views on children, and I'm not sure about your attitude, so I can't take risks." Ada's words confirmed Rock's guess.

"Where's the child?" Roque asked, this kind of thing is actually normal, but Ada cares about it and is confused.

Now Rock can be sure that Ada hid back to Cape Town for a year to give birth.

Speaking of illegitimate children, things like this are normal in both the East and the West. Relatively speaking, the Chinese care more about the next generation than Westerners, especially now that Rock's family is big and prominent, and the Matilda family is not easy to mess with. It seems that Phyllis has always shown that she doesn't care about Ada, but on this issue, Felice's attitude is really hard to say.

Women are often unreasonable.

"Tell me first, how will you treat him?" Ada didn't tell Roque where the child was, just like ordinary families, with a child, the status of a man plummeted.

he!

Rock didn't know that he already had a son.

"Don't worry, I won't take him away from you. If you want, I hope I can visit him often. I also hope he can call me Dad. In this situation, I may not be able to give him one." A complete family, of course, if you want, I can also find a way to solve it, you know I am Chinese, it is normal to marry two wives in the Qing Dynasty, and this situation is also normal in Africa." Rock tried to dispel the anxiety in Ada's heart doubt.

Needless to say in the Qing Dynasty, three wives and four concubines are very normal.

This kind of thing is more common in Africa. It is normal for those Zulu chiefs to have a hundred or ten wives.

This kind of thing is also very common in Western countries. Although on the surface, Western countries are monogamous, but the chaotic interpersonal relationship has caused the whole society to get used to this kind of thing. In the Qing Dynasty, widows like Ada had children , Maybe it will become a laughing stock, but in the West, no one really cares about these things. Now is not the 21st century where gossip is everywhere. Many people don't even know how many children the king has.

"How are you going to solve it?" Ada asked, sitting next to Rock with her mouth curled up.

"It doesn't work now. In a few years, the Transvaal will implement a democratic representative system." Of course, Rock has a way. When South Africa becomes self-governing, Rock can do whatever he wants.

Of course, no matter what Roque does, Roque will consider Phyllis' mood.

"What about the democratic representative system? The general election in Cape Town has not yet started, and the Progressive Party is already in chaos. It is only because of the smog in London that they came to the Transvaal—" Ada is not optimistic about the democratic representative system, and it is not an exaggeration to say that this is the root of all evil.

"Just because of this?" Rock became more and more angry.

"What do you think—" Ada challenged.

I can't stand this attitude.

Rock finally saw the little guy, but it was already night.

The little guy is very pitiful, and now he has to sleep alone in the baby room. It's not that Ida doesn't like him. There are four maids who provide 24-hour uninterrupted care for the little guy, even during bedtime.

When Rock saw the little guy, the little guy was sleeping soundly, his long eyelashes were trembling slightly with the sound of shallow and thin breathing, and there was still saliva on his mouth that he hadn't had time to wipe off.

Before Rock felt any blood connection, Ada roughly wiped the drool off the little guy's mouth with a handkerchief, with a disgusted expression on his face.

"How many months?" Rock was a little regretful. If the little guy was awake, Rock could still interact with the little guy. Don't think about it now. If the little guy wakes up, the little guy's temper will be very grumpy.

"What do you want to ask?" Ada's expression turned cold.

Rock didn't speak, and stared at Ada with anger.

This woman probably feels that she has nothing to fear when she has a bargaining chip in her hand, so she has been provoking her all day long.

Well, you have to train well.

"It's been less than three months, so I'm satisfied now—" Ada still backed down, because she really couldn't afford to provoke her now.

Rock really didn't doubt Ada's meaning, but simply wanted to care about the child.

"You should have told me back then, I still hope that when he comes to this world, I can be by his side." Rock still felt pity.

"When I found out, you were picking out an engagement ring for Phyllis. What could I do? Even if you don't care, Phyllis doesn't care, what about Philip? What about Henry? What about Owen?" Ada was still the one who had her own opinion. Ada, never put her fate in the hands of others.

"This is something I have to consider. You just need to trust me!" Rock did not accept these explanations from Ada. To put it bluntly, he still didn't trust Rock enough.

"Only this time, from now on, I will listen to you in everything—" Ada immediately took Rock's arm and rested her head on Rock's shoulder.

What can Rock do?

I really can't hate it.

The little guy probably felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit abnormal, so he slowly opened his eyes, with a very serious expression, and his lips were tightly pursed.

Rock didn't know what the little guy's expression meant, so Ada covered her forehead with a broken expression, and while pushing Rock out of the baby room, she greeted the helpless maid next to her: "Rock, let's go first!" Get out of here, you don't want to see the next scene—"

"What's wrong?" Rock, who was pushed out of the door, didn't understand.

"It probably wet the bed, or pooped—it's not a good thing anyway." Ada's expression was broken, and even angelic babies sometimes make people break down.

"Uh, it's normal—" Rock didn't have any special feelings. He was a father for the first time, but Rock really wanted to change the little guy's clothes or something.

"That's because you haven't been tortured by your son. Do you know why your son has four maids? One can't be busy at all." Ada guessed that she was tortured a lot, so she asked the maid to take care of the child.

This is true. Although Rock had a child for the first time in his two lifetimes, he had seen many news about novice parents being tormented by their children to the point of mental breakdown.

"I haven't asked yet, what's the child's name?" Rock finally thought of this question, but with Ada's character, he probably wouldn't leave the chance of naming to Rock.

"Arthur, I hope he will be as good as King Arthur in the future." Sure enough, Ada had already named the child.

Rock can't laugh or cry, what kind of name is this, the translation is similar to Long Aotian, isn't it Henry Tom or something?

"What's your expression? He's my son. I have the right to name him. Do you want to call him Big Man?" Ada was very dissatisfied with Rock's reaction.

Look, this is the harm of having children. In the past, Ada was obedient to Rock. After having a child, Ada would do everything for the sake of the child.

"No, Arthur is fine." Rock finally admitted that Ada didn't have much room for negotiation on this issue.

The big guy is the South African mastiff raised by Rock. After Rock and Phyllis got married, the big guy and Phyllis lived together in the Baron's Mansion in Bigwig Town.

Now the big man is very happy, with many wives and concubines, countless children, much happier than Rock.

Although the Chinese also have a tradition of "giving a humble name to support themselves", Rock did not want his son to share a name with a dog.

In fact, white people have this tradition. Many white families, in order to commemorate someone or something, will give some strange names to their pets. If a white person tells you that his dog and his Grandpa is a name, don't doubt it, it is very likely to be true, and people don't think it is an insult to the ancestors.

Compared with the big guy, Long Aotian is just Long Aotian. Anyway, for the Chinese, Arthur is just an ordinary name, which is similar to how white people feel about the name Long Aotian.

Looking back, Rock still discussed with Ada, hoping that Ada could go to Johannesburg, so that Rock could also be closer to Arthur and could see Arthur at any time.

"Just wait until you and Phyllis have a child, then maybe Phyllis should be more accepting." Ada is still the understanding Ada, this is indeed the best way to deal with it.

In fact, Roque was not sure how Phyllis would react if she knew of Arthur's existence.
