"It seems that I have to lock the TV too, considering what all you have learnt from the TV," Daisy said. And she immediately put her words into action by going ahead to turn off the TV that was on.
"Oh, no. To be or not to be, that is a question. Mom, is it wrong to be honest? I just told you the truth!" Justin pitifully looked at the black screen, speechless.
There is nothing wrong in telling the truth itself. The point is that the TV content is not suitable for kids like you." Daisy did not worry that Justin would turn bad watching this. However, she just wanted to tell him what kind of TV shows he could see and what kind of things were not suitable for kids of his age.
"Mom, it seems that there are also a few drawbacks of you being with Mr. Mu for such a long time. Now, you have learnt more and more of his style, full of sophistry." He realized that he should not have spoken anything. All he said was mistaken. The last time, he was banned from using the computer, and this time, even the TV was forbidden. Woo. Were there any more happy things left in his life? Without computer! Without TV! It was hard to imagine his future life without these fun things!
"So, you have any other opinions?" Daisy asked, with her eyebrows raised doubtfully. Since they left the residential building at the military base, this little boy had become more and more lovely. He was no longer that little Justin with a cool face.
"No, no. How dare I?" Justin said. "However, as the old saying goes, there are always measures to counter. I am sure I can live just as happy as I am now." Justin grinned, with his eyes gleaming almost wickedly. He believed that he had plenty of ways to overcome this problem, as his Mom would not be around 24 hours a day.
"Oh, If you say so, it is really a good reminder to me that I must cut off all the computer and TV signals of the house." On seeing the self-satisfied smirk on Justin's face, Daisy could not help but tell Justin that she had more solutions to settle down his little tricks. However, she just pretended to cut off the signals to frighten this little boy. If she really blocked all the high-tech signals in this house, she would be the first one to feel the inconvenience. After all, she always used the computer to search some data on the Internet at night, after coming back home from work.
"Do I tend to abuse myself? Or how could I be so silly to tell all these things to you," said Justin, pouting his tiny mouth. This time, the poor little Justin was thoroughly confused,. It seemed that he would cry any minute.
"Yes, you are right, to an extent. Anyway, forget all the computers and TV. Let's go! It is time for dinner. Wash your hands and let's get ready." After pushing Justin to wash hands, Daisy went to the kitchen. She wanted to know whether she could help with anything before the dinner since she had lots of work to do after dinner. But soon Daisy was driven out by Cynthia. In Cynthia's mind, Daisy was already very tired after a whole-day's work, how could she bother Daisy again by housework?
Every time Daisy came across moments like this, she felt deeply touched, not only because of Cynthia's kind consideration,but also because of the mother's love that Cynthia devoted to Daisy. Daisy had always craved for this motherly love and affection ever since her mother died.
To tell the truth, she felt that she was very lucky to be a member of this warm family. Although the situation in the beginning was not very good, if the end result was good, nothing else mattered. By thinking in this way, Daisy felt there was nothing to regret.
At night, Daisy lay on her bed. For a while, she kept tossing and turning around. She could not fall asleep because she missed Edward very much. She never had such a feeling even when she was in the military area. But once she was back in the house that was full of memories of Edward, she found that she wasn't really accustomed to being alone. She had endured such loneliness in a major part of her life before. However, she even felt lost, especially when she lay alone on the bed, surrounded by the light scent of jasmine, her feeling of loneliness became stronger and stronger.
She turned the phone back and forth in her hand several times, waiting for Edward's call. However, there was not a single text or call till now. Didn't Edward reached the destination yet? Or was he too busy to call her? But that's not what its supposed to be! Edward said that he would call her as soon as he reached his destination. But it was also her fault as she did not ask him where he was going for business trip and which flight he took. Otherwise, she could have checked bis arrival time by the flight number, instead of waiting like that.
Tossing and turning for a while, Daisy still felt nervous as she could not lie on the bed with ease. She sat up , procrastinating for a few seconds whether she should call Edward first or not. Finally, she decided to act proactive thistime and dialed Edward's number. But all she heard was a busy signal. It was an abnormal phenomenon. Iin case Edward was still on the plane, the answer should be "the subscriber you dialed is switched off". Since she heard a busy signal, it made her feel more anxious and nervous. How could it be busy?
