Chapter 218 Peggy Arrives (continued)

Since Peggy's parents reconciled, it seems like they've returned to their honeymoon days.

The two were so inseparable that they naturally had no extra time to take care of their little daughter.

As for Peggy, she grew up under her mother's strict requirements. As she approaches the rebellious stage, she also yearns for a free life.

In this case, both parties hit it off.Therefore, Peggy's journey to transfer to another school was very smooth.

Mike heard the noise outside the house and came out, just in time to see Peggy's family getting out of the pickup truck carrying large and small bags.

"Mike, thank you for what you did for Linda and me. Peggy told us..." Barry held his wife's hand and came to Mike to express his sincere thanks.

You must know that the previous relationship between Barry and his wife was on the verge of collapse.If it hadn't been for the last sweet date, which allowed the two to open up and regain the original beauty, they would probably be divorced now.

So strictly speaking, Mike's small act of kindness can be regarded as saving a family.

"It's nothing. In fact, Peggy also put in a lot of effort." Mike glanced at the smiling little girl next to him, but did not take all the credit to himself.

The romantic date prepared for Mr. and Mrs. Barry really didn't take much effort on his part.

And looking at the happy appearance of the couple opposite, Mike felt quite happy for them.

"No, that date is very important to us..." After Barry and his wife looked at each other, he took out a beautiful gift box and handed it to Mike, saying, "This is a little thought from me and Linda, please accept it." Down."

Obviously, the Barrys are also decent people. Mike may not care about it, but their thoughts must be expressed clearly.

If I remember correctly, along with the expensive pen from last Christmas, this is already the second thank-you gift they gave to Mike.

"This..." Seeing the other party's enthusiasm, Mike also smiled and accepted the souvenir.

After the gift box was opened, there was a vintage pocket watch inside, which was very beautifully made.

It can be seen that the Barry couple also put a lot of effort into this souvenir.

"How's it going, Mike. Do you still like it?" Barry asked expectantly.

He asked a friend to get this old-fashioned golden pocket watch from a special channel. It can be regarded as having a price but no market.

And a good pocket watch is a symbol of a man's status.It's quite appropriate to give it to the handsome Mike.

"Thank you, it's very beautiful, I like it very much." Mike rubbed the lines on the pocket watch and expressed his love.

It is also a gentleman's behavior to praise the other person's gift in person.

"As long as you like it." Seeing Mike's satisfied look, Mr. Barry, who gave the gift, also showed a happy look.

Then, he looked behind Mike a few times and asked, "By the way, where's Connie, why didn't you see it?"

"She and George went to help a neighbor and should be back soon." Mike explained the whereabouts of Grandma Connie.

"Is that so? Let's take Peggy's things in first." Mr. Barry thought for a moment and said, "I'll prepare in a moment to invite you and the Cooper family out for a casual dinner."

It can be seen that the Barry couple, whose mentality has changed, really want to have a good relationship with Grandma Connie and the Cooper family this time.

Moreover, Peggy will be staying here for a long time in the future, so it is very necessary to have a reunion dinner.

In terms of human relations, Mike didn't say much.

After that, several people helped Peggy move her personal belongings to her room.

During this period, the little girl seemed to be in a very good mood, and the smile on her face never stopped.

And when everyone was sitting in the living room to rest after finishing their work, Grandma Connie, with some dust on her face, came back carrying a small basket of eggs.

Seeing the arrival of the Barry family, she first expressed her welcome, and then said with a smile: "You are in for a treat today. These are eggs harvested by Brenda's family. I can use them to make an egg dinner for you." Taste it.”

Mr. Barry, who received Grandma Connie's enthusiasm, smiled and declined: "Let's wait until next time for the egg dinner. I'm going to invite you and the Cooper family out for lunch in a while."

Grandma Connie thought for a moment and understood the meaning of the other party's invitation to this meal.

Then, she said happily: "Okay, I'll clean up. My image is not suitable for going out to eat."

Everyone smiled knowingly, and then watched Grandma Connie go to the bathroom. "By the way, George has just come home. If you want to invite their family to dinner, you have to inform them early..." Before washing up, Grandma Connie turned around and reminded.

It's almost noon now. If I hadn't said hello in advance, Mary would have started making lunch at the Cooper house.

"Okay, I'll go to Cooper's house and invite them." Mr. Barry responded.

Then, he and his wife went out and went to Cooper's house opposite.

Then, at Grandma Connie's house, except for Grandma Connie who was washing in the bathroom, Mike and Peggy were the only two people left in the living room.

The little girl looked more relaxed without anyone else around.

After stretching a lot, she lay down on the soft sofa, twisted her body and rolled several times.

It can be seen that Peggy is really happy now.At this moment, she looked completely different from her usual dignified appearance.

"Thank you, Mike~" After rolling twice, Peggy, who was satisfied, straightened the wrinkles on her clothes, sat up straight and said seriously.

In the past six months, the little girl can be said to have experienced ups and downs in life.

Family conflicts have been bothering her, and she was almost pulled into the abyss.

Fortunately, at the most important crossroads in her life, Mike appeared.

The latter was like a ray of light, dispelling the gloom in Peggy's heart.

"Everything will be fine..." Looking at the little girl's expression, Mike also felt a little emotional.

He also saw the other party's previous suffering.

It can only be said that her super high IQ and EQ put the other party under too much pressure that she should not have to bear at her age.

Fortunately, all this is in the past.

Thinking of this, Mike also rubbed the little girl's little head distressedly.

"It's annoying, my hair is messed up..." Peggy complained with a smile on her face.

However, it did not stop Mike's actions.

This feeling of peace of mind seems not bad either.

Over at the Cooper family, the Barrys also successfully invited the Cooper family.

Next, Mr. Barry, who was not short of money, rejected George's proposal to have lunch at a seafood restaurant, and instead took everyone to a real high-end restaurant.

You get what you pay for, so it’s expensive for a reason.

Thanks to Topage, Grandma Connie, Mike and others also experienced the life of rich people.

……

"Peggy will be looking after you from now on. If you have any questions, you can call me and Barry at any time." After the banquet, Linda, who had not touched any alcohol, supported her slightly drunk husband and entrusted everyone.

"Don't worry, Linda. Mike and I will take good care of Peggy..." Grandma Connie said with a smile.

Grandma Connie also liked the smart and sensible Peggy very much.

On the other side, Mary also said that she would help take care of Peggy.

"Thank you~" After Linda solemnly thanked her again, she took her youngest daughter to the side and said a few words before driving away with her husband in the car.

"Okay, Peggy. Let's go home too~" After the car drove away, Mike shouted in the heat.

Although winter is almost over, the outdoor temperature still shows no sign of warming up.

"Here it comes~" Peggy smiled brightly and caught up with Mike's pace briskly.
