Chapter 70 Daily Excess
"I can usually pick up Peggy when I go to school. She also lives with me. If I have other things, I will trouble you."

After dinner at night, Locke said this to Susan.

"This is what I should do. To be honest, I didn't expect the relationship between you and Barry to be so, so close."

At first, Susan guessed that Locke and Peggy were siblings, but after learning about the situation of the Swanson family during this time, she realized that this was not the case.

"Rocke is a very reliable guy, Barry and I have known him for two years, he has always looked after Peggy at the school.

After all, you know that Peggy was only nine years old when she first started high school, and if it wasn't for Locke, she would probably be bullied by the bad girls in school. "

Linda smiled and replied that the past two years have made them feel very at ease with Locke, otherwise Peggy would not be allowed to live with Locke:
"I'll go back tomorrow. The summer vacation is coming to an end. I'm going to my mother to pick up my other daughter. From now on, Peggy will take care of you."

"Don't worry, Julie and I like Peggy very much. Wow, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't have known such a smart child. Now that Julie has problems with her homework, I always ask her for advice."

"That would be great," Linda said with a smile.

The overall atmosphere of the conversation was extremely harmonious. On the second day, Ashley and Susan, who had just met, had their hair done and then went shopping, and Locke sent Lin to the airport.

After Linda's plane took off and drove back again, Peggy, who was sitting in the co-pilot, seemed to breathe a sigh of relief:

"It's exhausting these days, seeing people who are willing every day makes me feel like a clown in a circus."

"Hahaha... how can there be such a beautiful and cute clown." Locke smiled and stretched out a hand to rub Peggy's head:

"Since you find it troublesome, then take a good rest for two days, and then I will take you to report. You will probably meet Sheldon then."

"He told me that he would go to Beverly's house a few days in advance, and Leonard even called me, feeling like a child abandoned by his mother." Peggy said with a smile.

"Indeed, with Sheldon around, Leonard's future life will be difficult." Thinking of the possible scenarios, Locke chuckled.

"I thought of an interesting thing." Peggy said suddenly: "Maybe after we sign up, we can visit Beverly's house."

Compared to Sheldon who regards Peggy as his lifelong enemy, Peggy always thinks Sheldon is quite interesting, after all, there are not many people who can really get along with her.

Except for Locke and Sheldon, even Leonard, who often took the initiative to contact her, was a little bit worse.

It's just a pity for Leonard, Locke can feel some of his little thoughts about Peggy.

After we first met, I often called Peggy and contacted him on the Internet. Just seeing Peggy's attitude, the possibility of success is really too low.

"As long as you can bear two Sheldons." Locke shrugged.

……

When he got home, Locke parked the car in the garage, and saw a blonde woman standing by the side of the road: "Hey, Eddie, how is your new home?"

Locke took the initiative to say hello to the other party. Yidi is a real estate agent in a few nearby streets. She was also the one who passed Locke's choice of this house.

"The progress is not bad. Thanks to the insurance company's willingness to pay compensation, otherwise the house I got from my ex-husband would be completely ruined." Yidi said with a smile, "Are you still used to living here?"

“It feels good, and the people who live here are very friendly.”

"Yes, everyone would like a cute boy like you."

Eddie looked at Locke with some regrets. She had a wide range of defenses, but it was the first time for a man as handsome as Locke, who made her feel happy as soon as she met him. Unfortunately, she tried it before when Locke bought a house. get any response.

Locke, who could see that Eddie was thinking, dealt with it a few words, then returned to the room, went to the kitchen to boil a pot of water, and then heard a knock on the door.

"Hey, um~ I'm here to find Peggy." Standing at the door, Julie smiled and raised the book in her hand: "I just saw you came back, and I wanted to ask Peggy a question from school. "

Locke's eyes rolled: "Peggy just went upstairs to rest, if you don't mind, I can answer you."

"Really? That's fine." Julie nodded, followed Locke to the living room and sat down.

"What would you like to drink, coffee or tea?" Locke asked.

"Tea is fine." Julie replied politely.

"What's the problem?" Locke brought over the brewed tea and picked up the book Julie brought.

"It's about mathematics..." Julie pointed to a question: "Peggy told me yesterday, but I still can't understand some things."

"It's nothing, Peggy is just not used to how to explain to ordinary people." Locke took a look: "This question should be like this..."

In less than 10 minutes, Julie figured it out completely: "Wow, I already understand what you said, thank you for your help."

"It's nothing, you can come to me if you have any problems in the future." Locke said with a chuckle.

"That's great. My mom isn't good at math either. She's a painter." Julie said, "Mainly for some books and illustrations."

"That sounds good, maybe I can ask her to help." Locke said with a smile: "My latest version of the novel will be released in a while, maybe I can ask her to draw illustrations."

"Really, are you still a writer?" Julie asked in surprise, "What kind of novel is it?"

"Arcane Throne is a fantasy novel related to magic. Most of my favorites are boys."

"Sounds interesting."

"If you are interested, I have already published it here, you can take it and read it."

"Thank you very much. I can show it to my mother. Well, I said that if she wants to take over the job of illustrating your book, it would be better to read your novel."

"It's okay, you wait here, the book is in the study, I'll get it right away." Locke stood up and went to the second floor, and when he came to the study, he saw Peggy sitting at the desk.

"You are very lucky today." Peggy said to Locke who was standing in front of the bookshelf looking for a book.

"Ok?"

"Ashley happened to be going to the hairdresser, so I didn't bother you."

"I'm just helping a little bit, Jolie is too young for me."

Locke went downstairs with the book and handed it to Julie: "This is the first book, please read it first, if you like it, you can ask me for the second book."

"Thank you." Julie nodded, stood up and took the book: "I still have some things to do, so I'll go back first."

"Okay." Locke didn't hold back either, and opened the door to send Julie away.

As he said, the current Julie is indeed a little younger for her, but it doesn't have to wait too long.
