Why are these photos taken? "Lauren embraced Eric's shoulders familiarly, looking like a good brother.
"I'm going back to the United States soon, and I'll take some pictures." Eric replied.
"Oh, friend from afar, I didn't expect you to go back so soon." Lauren said in a very exaggerated tone, "I didn't even have time to show my kindness to the landlord."
Eric almost rolled his eyes at this guy, "Ed's uncle's family treated me very well." He didn't know this guy very well.
"Let me treat you to ice cream!" Obviously, Lauren couldn't understand what Eric said, and insisted on showing his friendship as a landlord.
Eating ice cream in winter? !Eric accepts incompetence, and he really doesn't know Lauren well! !But before Eric could struggle, he was dragged over to buy two ice creams, one vanilla and one chocolate.
"Little devil, this is for you." Lauren paid, took the chocolate ice cream and handed it to him, then took another one and ate it.Eric knew that this ice cream shop was very famous. It used to be an Italian ice cream workshop, and it started to open chain stores all over Europe in recent years.But no matter how delicious the ice cream is, it can't change the fact that he and Lauren have only met for the second time.Standing on the side of the street and eating ice cream with a person who has only met twice, this is really an experience he has never had.
Lauren didn't care about that, he was lazily leaning against the wall, his eyes squinted comfortably, Eric was standing on his left, with a camera hanging around his neck, and an ice cream in his hand foolishly.
"Is America fun?" Lauren asked suddenly.
Eric didn't think about how to answer, Lauren has already said, "You have to go and see for yourself to find out." Then, he straightened up and grabbed Eric's camera, "Little devil, let's take a group photo Let's go!" Then he opened the camera talking to himself, and pressed the shutter before Eric could react.
"Remember to send me the photos when you go back," he continued to talk to himself, "I will ask Ed to give you my email address, and the photos must be deleted!"
Then Lauren picked up the phone and looked at the time, "It's getting late! I'm going back, goodbye kid!" He waved his hand and left very coolly.
Eric stood where he was, feeling inexplicable about what happened just now.
Lauren Fernandez is such a weirdo.
determination
The day of Eric's departure was forced to be brought forward.
Although he really wanted to pack his bags as planned, say goodbye to the Eastwoods, and maybe see Ed one last time.But the plan obviously cannot keep up with the changes.
Chuck Bass, his future stepbrother, was going back to New York after his vacation, and then he didn't know whether it was Lily's request or Bart's order. He came to London to pick Eric up.
Yes, Chuck will soon be part of his family, as Bart proposes to Lily on Christmas Day.Serena was there to attest that Bart came over to join them for the holidays and pulled a huge Harry Winston diamond out of his pocket.Although Lily did not agree of course, Eric still thought that it would be a matter of time before she changed her surname to Bass.
Eric only had time to say goodbye to Linnie, no one else was home, and Chuck obviously wouldn't have the patience to wait for him for too long.He could only stuff all his things into the suitcase, forgetting the lunch he should have had at this time, and hurried out to take a taxi to the airport.
When Eric boarded the Bass family's private jet, he found that Chuck was not alone, and Nat was also on the plane.
"I think you guys went on vacation together," Eric said.
"Yes," Nat replied, "Chuck invited me to Monaco before Christmas."
"Abandoning Blair?" Eric was puzzled, "I thought you wanted to make up with her."
"Blair's not easy to please," Chuck joined their conversation. "I think Nat Neal needs a relaxing vacation."
Since Blair is hard to please, shouldn't he work harder to please him?
The messy relationship between Blair, Nat and Chuck is the last thing Eric wants to worry about this year.He didn't want to expose the loopholes in Chuck's words. He just wanted to ask the flight attendant to bring him a lunch. His most urgent need now was to fill his stomach.
Airplane food is never good, but it's better than nothing, and Eric finished his lunch and took a good night's sleep.His vacation is over, and now he's heading back to Manhattan to resume his battle with Gossip Girl.
Eight hours later, Eric set foot on American soil again.Lily sent a car to pick him up to Cinderella for a family dinner at the Van der Woolsen's house, where Chuck and Nat went their separate ways.
However, when Eric arrived at the restaurant, the table reserved by the Van der Woolsen's family was still empty.Lily and Serena hadn't attended yet, but he, who had just returned from the other side of the Atlantic, was the first to sit at the table.
However, he didn't wait too long. When he turned to the fifth page of GossipGirl's promotion news, the two blond beauties from the Van der Woolsen family were also seated.
Lily ordered a meal, accepted the restaurant's recommendation and ordered duck meat, and ordered a bottle of sherry with great interest.
The meal went well. They celebrated Eric's return and exchanged views on their winter vacation life.It's rare for Eric to feel such a warm family atmosphere, although this kind of warmth only lasts until the plate is removed.
After the plates of the last course were cleared, the waiter brought dessert—Eric's favorite lemon cake.Eric ate the whole cake, he really thought it was good to be back, although life in England was warm, but Manhattan was his home.
But after dessert, Eric will face the fate of going to the Palace Hotel alone.Serena is going on a date with Dan, and Lily, recently rekindled her relationship with Rufus -- though she hasn't yet turned down Bart's marriage proposal.
Oh, and his mom and sister are famous socialites.
When the school resumed classes, Eric once again resumed his life as a top student. He went to and from class on time every day, and carefully completed various papers.After class, he wondered if he'd have a meeting with his friend Jonathan about dealing with Gossip Girl -- something that wasn't going well.The two nine-year-old teenagers have limited abilities. Of course, pocket money is also limited. They haven't received their own funds yet. They are not Chuck Bass.
Therefore, given the lack of manpower and material resources, the two teenagers can only temporarily monitor Gossip Girl's movements through a mailbox, and they have to be careful, lest Gossip Girl give up the current mailbox and make all their previous work go to waste.
Life can only move forward slowly through repetition, and Eric can only do his best.
In February, the school had a new principal, a hard-line female principal, although she did not have a solid background.Then there's a drowning at Serena's swimsuit party—although the ambulance arrives in time and no one dies, it's enough for the headmaster to throw a tantrum, especially when the headmaster is in dire need of affirmation.
Of course this whole incident had nothing to do with Eric, who wasn't at the party and couldn't be of much help when the group of teenagers banded together to fight the principal.But he believes in the protagonist effect, and he firmly believes that Serena and Blair can always pull through.
But on the night Serena surrendered to the principal and was punished for 24 hours of community service, Lily agreed to Bart's marriage proposal.They threw a house party, with just the Bass and the VanderWolsen three in attendance, to celebrate their becoming a family.
Lily quickly decided that the family would move into the Bass apartment, at least until their own house was finished.Then Lily began to be busy planning the wedding. For her, the wedding was more difficult than the marriage partner.
Then, just before spring break, Constance's biggest scandal of all time erupted - Blair Hodolph slept with two men in one week.This matter did not affect Eric, he was a quiet ninth grade student, although his sister Serena was the center of all the scandals, but his natural soy sauce attributes almost made him immune to all scandals——Ai Rick thought it was a good thing, he wasn't Jenny Humphrey, he didn't want to be anyone's talking point.
Speaking of Jenny Humphrey, she poured oil on the Blair scandal, which completely broke the relationship between Nat, Chuck and Blair.She wanted too much to gain a place in Constance's social circle, and Blair was the biggest obstacle to her climbing up.She is also too talented in intrigue, so let her do things right.
But this matter has nothing to do with Eric, he has not been affected in any way, except that Serena rarely comes to ask for his help.Feeling overwhelmed by the scandal, Blair hurts Serena with her unscrupulous words under pressure, and everyone abandons her. She wants to escape Manhattan and fly to France.Serena also encountered many problems. She thought that Dan had exposed Blair's secret but dared not admit it, so when Dan confessed that "I love you", she could only be dumbfounded.
"Haven't you thought about other possibilities of leaking secrets?" Eric listened to Serena's retelling, and said his thoughts directly, "Do you know how many times I heard you and Dan talking about secrets? Can you guarantee Didn't Jenny overhear your conversation?"
Serena obviously did not think of this possibility.
"You know, not everyone is as secretive as I think it sounds. Jenny is obviously more willing to trade Blair's scandal in exchange for more social space at Constance?" Eric continued, "Blair is her worst enemy."
Serena listened to him, "So Jenny told the truth."
"Compared to Jenny, I think Dan's character is more trustworthy," Eric concluded. "Your boyfriend will not be involved in this scandal without some reason."
Serena thinks this explanation is entirely possible, and after thinking everything through, she feels like going out to make up for her mistakes, "Thank you for listening to me today, Eric. I think I have to get out soon , so before you know it, you have become smarter than me."
"Good luck," Eric said.
Serena grabbed her handbag in a hurry and went out the door.Eric knew that she would go to Dan to respond to the sentence I love you first, and then dare to go to the airport to prevent Blair from leaving.He also knew that what he said today had planted a bad impression of Jenny in Serena's heart, and he would write down everything that happened today.
He's going to document the damage GossipGirl did to Serena and everyone Serena loves, and then bring it all to Serena when Dan reveals his true colors.Can love undo harm?Eric never believed this sentence, only forgetting can erase the damage.In the final analysis, Serena's behavior is to heal the scar and forget the pain, so as long as her scar remains bad, Serena will not be kind to the person who hurt her.
Eric was sitting on the sofa with soothing music playing in his headphones.He watched Serena getting into the car, but the expression on his face remained unchanged.Their life has been filled with deceit from birth, but his older sister, Serena, is the best family ever for Eric, even if she's promiscuous, drugged, and alcoholic.He must not tolerate Daniel Humphrey using countless lies to win Serena's heart.
He wants to protect his family.
春假
The friendship between Serena and Blair can break through all intrigues, although they themselves are masters of intrigue.
Eric didn't care about the follow-up of Blair's incident. Blair has never been a person who is willing to decline, and her quiet time will obviously not be too long.
How to spend the spring break is the most serious problem facing Eric.
Since Lily has agreed to Bart's marriage proposal, the family is now temporarily living in the apartment of the Bass family.Eric was lucky enough to be assigned a separate bedroom, and a supporting maid—a Filipino girl named Samantha.Every day after moving, Eric enjoys the emperor-like treatment of opening his mouth for food and extending his hands for clothes.He also finally understood why Chuck could say "I'mChuckBass" with confidence. Anyone who was born with a diamond spoon in his mouth and grew up enjoying the treatment of the rich among the rich would have the right Gram's confident.
But Eric still didn't feel at ease in the luxurious apartment.One morning, Samantha tried to put his socks on and put his feet in his shoes!
Service that is too attentive will only scare away customers.Eric felt that he was not a real prince, and he didn't have any prince disease.He couldn't look directly at Samantha's figure in servant clothes.He didn't want the girl to lose his job, and he didn't want to accept her overservice, so the only solution left was to go out on spring break to avoid the limelight.
Eric can only hope that his apartment is finished when he gets back from vacation - although that is highly unlikely.
Eric finally decided to go to the Hamptons to pass the vacation time.His grandmother, Sissy, had long retired in the Hamptons, and Eric thought she would be delighted to see her grandson.He tried to call Sissy, and told about his idea of using the spring break to spend time with his grandma, and Sissy really happily agreed to his request.
So what Eric has to do now is to pack up his things quickly and leave a message to his family before going out.He had to catch the last bus out of the city before 8 o'clock, and it was already past 6 o'clock.
Hurry up hurry up!Race against the clock and race against the clock!
In order to travel light, Eric tried to fit 5 sets of clothes and 2 pairs of shoes in a small travel bag, as well as a laptop computer, and several large books he used to refer to when writing his thesis ——This seemingly impossible task is ending with Eric's victory, although his box looks like a soup bag that is about to explode.
Since there was not much luggage, Eric decided to carry it downstairs by himself, even though there were a lot of servants who sincerely expressed their willingness to serve.
Eric sternly rejected them.
He walked to the elevator and pressed the down button.Soon, the elevator door opened in front of him with a ding, and Serena stood inside.
"Where are you going, Eric?" Serena asked. "I didn't know you had travel plans for spring break."
"I'm going to spend time with Granny in the Hamptons," Eric replied. "You know I don't have many friends."
"You're so sweet!" Serena raised her eyebrows to show her surprise. "I thought the Hamptons were just for the summer."
"You can just call Hamptons boring and I won't mind."
"You can stay in New York," Serena tried to persuade him to change his mind. "I can't let you go out of town alone."
"Stay here and interrupt your date with Dan?" Eric retorted, "Or was my mother asked to refer to what flowers to use for the wedding?"
"I really don't think there's anything wrong with going out of town to spend time with the elderly." Eric finally concluded, "I don't like the spring in Hampton, at least it's quiet."
"So, can you let me in the elevator now?"
Serena couldn't say no to Eric, his younger brother became more and more assertive, he was no longer an obedient little boy, and Serena suddenly felt the faint sorrow brought to her sister by her younger brother growing up.
"Hey! Eric, at least let me take you downstairs!" She said at the last second when the elevator door closed, pressed the button to let the door reopen, and then walked in and hugged her brother's shoulders, "I wish you a happy life in Han Have a great time Puton!"
Eric arrived in Hampton before 11 o'clock, even if Sissy sent a car to pick him up, it was almost midnight when he walked into the Ross family's country house.
Sissy was getting old, and she had been in poor health for the past few years, so she went to bed early.Now the whole house is only lit with a few lights on the first floor. The light is dim, as if the candle light will be blown out by the wind.
The butler is still awake, he needs to settle Eric before he can rest.The housekeeper, Mr. Reid, was born in the best housekeeping school in the world, and has worked in the Ross family all his life.
He saved Eric's dinner, which was kept at the perfect temperature in the kitchen.Eric thanked him for his thoughtfulness, settled the meal with the extra milk that Rhett brought up, and then went upstairs to find his room.
His room is the second one on the west side of the second floor, and it has not changed since he was a child.Although he lived in Manhattan now, and he probably wouldn't come back for two or three years, Sissy kept his room, Serena's, Lily's, and Aunt Carol's.It was only at this time that Eric felt that Sissy was just an ordinary old man, the mother of two daughters, and the grandmother of the children, not the gin-smelling Ross she showed outside. Miss.
The emotion between the Rhodes family is very strange.His grandmother Sissy, who puts family honor above everything else, has nothing to do with her two daughters; Aunt Carol, who is almost invisible at home, is rebellious in middle age like an adolescent girl, insisting on money Corrupting the soul, now living alone away from New York; Mom Lily, who is almost a copy of Sissy, who is a good social person, but really not very good at being a wife and mother; and then Serena, who used to be Drugged, promiscuous, alcoholic, and now a poor boy, longing to be a good wife and mother.The Rhodes family had too many famous women. Eric, as the only boy in the family for three generations, lived like a soy sauce.
Fortunately, Eric doesn't care about these.He was a kid who craved company until he was 14, but now he's able to handle life on his own.
At the end of the day, Eric didn't disturb anyone, opened the door, put his luggage on the bed, went into the bathroom, took a hot shower, and then lay down in the big bed to sleep all night.
He had a dream.
When I was a child, it was summer.
The sun was scorching hot outside the window, and Cicada's cry shook the sky.He was still about 7 or 8 years old, with a round face and golden hair, as beautiful as a doll.
He spent the summer vacation in Hampton, and he caught longhorn beetles in the nearby woods with a net pole on his back, and kept it in a cage to write his observation diary.He has been in school for a while, but not too long, and his handwriting doesn't even have a shape.
Sister Serena is also in the Hamptons, where three of her playmates all have homes.They came to the Hamptons together for the summer.
Blair and Nat have been dating since kindergarten, and they are also young couples now, holding hands and walking along the seaside every day; Chuck has already developed the embryonic form of a playboy, wandering among countless little beauties in a smooth manner; and Serena, who is still a little sunshine, loves all kinds of ocean activities, surfing and swimming, and has a lot of fun.
He saw his mother and grandmother sitting peacefully under the umbrella, holding fruit wine in their hands, with a happy expression on their faces.
He himself is just a kid, and he doesn't have to think about anything outside of playing.
The sky was cloudless and clear, and even the wind seemed to carry a fresh fragrance.
Everything is as beautiful as a dream.
Then Eric woke up, there was no cicadas outside the window, replaced by the new shoots of the trees in early spring and the sporadic crisp birdsong.
a beautiful morning!
Eric sat up from the bed and stretched out his hand to open the curtains.The gentle sunlight shone into the room along the frame of the window, casting a whole golden shadow, and the air that poured in with it smelled of leaves, and a few birds were startled, chirping and flying away.
Eric didn't have time to express more emotion, and there was a knock on the door behind him.
"Master Eric," Rhett's voice came after three knocks on the door, "I'm Rhett."
"Hi Rhett," Eric replied, "I'm awake."
"May I ask how you prepare your breakfast? Do you go downstairs to eat with your wife or bring it up for you?"
"Please ask grandma to wait for a while, I will go downstairs to have dinner with her right away."
Eric didn't have time to listen to what Rhett said next, he needed to hurry up to wash and change clothes.At this time, he was glad that he was a boy, at least he saved the time for makeup.
After Eric went downstairs, he was led to the courtyard of the villa.Sissy's house has a large garden, and the gardener has decorated it very delicately.
A dining table had been set on the garden lawn, covered with a dressy white tablecloth, on which were two sets of fine cutlery.Rhett and other servants are serving meals at the table.
Eric saw that there was already a person sitting at the dining table, and he walked over, his shoes rustling on the grass.
Sissy turned her head, she is a very attractive woman, years can kill her youth without losing her charm.Her blond hair faded to a nearly white pale blond, and she pulled it back into a bun.
She smiled faintly, "Good morning, Eric! I'm glad you can accompany me to breakfast."
Old friend
Eric couldn't tell what kind of woman Sissy Rhodes was.
She is rich, there is no doubt about it, Lily gave up her true love because Sissi did not give up the threat of inheritance, one can imagine the wealth behind Sissi; she is very elegant, she must have been a beauty when she was young, and now the years still favor her Keep her shining; she is the chairman of several committees, and she is a heavyweight in New York's upper-class social circle. She has rich marriage experience. Her husband's people are extraordinary, but she chose to return to being single in the end; she has two children, both daughters, but the relationship between mother and daughter is not good... She has many titles and a lot of money, she has enough Ability to do everything well, but powerless to the family.
Then she gets old.
Her ex-husbands gradually passed away, her children grew up and married, a third generation in the family was born, and gradually her grandchildren grew up.
She is really old.
"Eric, try this caramelized banana, my chef recently developed a new dessert," she put down her fork, "My doctor recently restricted me from eating desserts, and you come to the Hamptons just to satisfy my cravings. "Sissy stopped eating, she ate very little, and Eric could hardly see that the food on the table was moving.
"Thank you," Eric followed her introduction and tried to take a bite, "It's delicious."
"Eat more if you think it tastes good," Sissy continued, "A child of your age has a god-given appetite."
"You just need to eat a little more," Eric said. "Looking at you, I thought you were too old to eat food."
"Of course I'm not that old," Sissy said, and she didn't defend herself, just took a few symbolic sips from her teacup again. "What have Lily and Serena been up to lately?"
Eric hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth, "Grandma, I know that Mom has decided to marry Bart Bass. She recently contacted a wedding planner to prepare for her first...um...fourth wedding. Lena, she's busy with dates, with Blair, and SAT preparation."
"Serena is still dating Daniel Humphrey?"
"Yes, Serena sees Dan as a soul mate," Eric replied, "their relationship is bonded, and nothing or anyone can break them apart for the time being."
"Maybe Lily used inheritance to solve this problem like I did back then," Sissy said.
Eric was noncommittal about this suggestion, "I don't think the matter is so serious. Serena is still a middle school student, and they haven't reached the point where they are talking about marriage, so there is no need for such decisive means. In addition, my mother's opinion of Dan Not bad impression."
"Of course, she herself has been obsessed with another Humphrey." Sissy said, "But sooner or later they will find that love can't be eaten, and young people are always easy to get carried away."
The brunch passed amid the schmoozing between grandparents and grandchildren.Sissy's next itinerary is to receive a group of committee members. This year's summer white party is scheduled to be held by Sissy. They need to discuss various details of holding the party.Eric didn't want to participate in the preparation of such an event, and Sissy also thought that the boy didn't need to learn these things, so they made an appointment to have dinner together in the evening, and Eric could allocate the rest of the day independently.
Eric decided to go to the beach to relax. He packed his textbooks, and Rhett asked the maid to prepare a picnic basket for him to take away, which contained fruit, sandwiches for lunch and mineral water.Eric was not old enough to drive, and he didn't want to have a chauffeur on call, so he ended up finding a bicycle in the garage to use as a ride.
Fortunately, Sissy's house is close to the sea, and the temperature in spring is also very pleasant. Eric rode all the way against the wind and reached the beach easily.He took out the cushions from the picnic basket and spread them on the beach away from the coastline. The sun was very mild today, so he didn't need an umbrella or anything. He just needed to find a place where no one was around and sit quietly.
He took out his civil law textbook and began to preview his homework.Eric plans to take a summer study trip to Oxford, where he can get a bed in a dormitory in Oxford and then undergo a series of pre-university training at the university.After the end of this semester, he will have completed half of the four-year courses in high school.In the second half of the year, he decided to skip grades directly to the third year of high school, complete the remaining general courses and then take the SAT test.He also needs to spend enough time in community service activities in the two school years of this year and next year, and has enough time to save a resume enough to apply for a prestigious school.
So he's going to be busy next time.
But someone interrupted his study very ignorantly.
It was an old man, and of course an old man who could show up to walk his dog on a private beach in the Hamptons would obviously not be any ordinary old man.
This old man has a good bearing, and his attire also shows that his family is in good condition.And his dog, a tall Alaskan malamute—the dog’s ethos can also reflect his family’s conditions—his master has the leisure and money to keep the dog full of spirit.
In fact, the process of Eric's interrupted study was like this - first an Alaskan sled dog appeared on the edge of the beach as far as he could see. It was very tall, with shiny skin, and its hair was combed very fluffy. This makes it look majestic, with a gold collar around its neck, a name tag and of course a retractable chain, so the dog owner appears right after his pet, a dwarf A fat old man, wearing a shirt and a cashmere vest, his head is a little bald, with a natural and comfortable expression on his face.
That was a stupid dog, Eric thought afterward.
"Wow!" He didn't see how the tall sled dog rushed towards him with hugs and hugs. Eric only knew that he was overwhelmed by a huge momentum, and then a hot, thick, stabbed The thing brushed towards his face, leaving sticky drool all over his face.At the same time, Eric seemed to be able to see the big fluffy tail wagging behind the big dog.
Eric quickly realized that the big dog had an owner, because his chest was a little sore from a square plate. From the touch, Eric thought it was a dog tag - usually engraved with A dog tag with the dog's name and the owner's telephone address.He also felt the chain around the neck of the big dog, and the laughter of an elderly man.
"Oh, hehe~" he was still laughing, "Lisa, come back soon after you've had enough licking!" He didn't stop his pet's behavior at all, but let it make out with a stranger.
Eric managed to break free from the embrace of a dog. After he picked up the textbook that had fallen to the side and wiped off the sand that had just rolled on the beach, he really saw the person who had ruined his study. What does a dog look like.
"Hey! Boy! My dog likes you!" Eric heard the old man say, as if it was a great honor to be liked by a dog.
He couldn't help curling his lips.
"I'm Tweek Peabody, I live nearby," the old man introduced himself as he sat down familiarly. "This is my dog Lisa. She likes you very much."
"I think I've met you lad, but forgive me for being too old to remember your name."
"I'm Eric van der Woolsen, and I recently came to the Hamptons for spring break." Eric also introduced himself.
Mr. Peabody's memory was obviously awakened, "I remember you, you are Sissy's grandson. You used to come to the Hamptons when you were a child, but since you and your sister...uh..."
"Serena, Serena VanderWolsen, my sister's name." Eric had to remind him.
Mr. Peabody followed Eric's words naturally, "I haven't seen you much since you started school."
His memory seems to be opened by an unknown clue, and then the memory will come out continuously, "Your sister impresses me, she was very lively and active when she was young, right?! I remember she likes all water sports, I was also his swimming instructor. As for you, you were a shy little fellow in those days, and liked to run after the older ones, and you caught insects in the nearby woods..."
Through Mr. Peabody's memories of their childhood, Eric was sure that he should be an old acquaintance of the Rhodes family, but he really couldn't remember such an old gentleman participating in his childhood.The toddler's memory is unreliable, and it can only be said that he really hasn't seen Mr. Peabody since he remembered.
"You must not remember me," he seemed to understand Eric's confusion, and immediately explained, "I moved to the UK after you were three years old. I just moved back and now live with my grandson. .”
"Sissi and I are old friends," he summed up the conversation above. "You can also be treated as an elder. If you are free, please come to my house to play. My grandson and I will entertain you well."
old story
Eric really couldn't remember the memories before the age of three, but Mr. Peabody didn't care about it either.
However, it is an indisputable fact that Eric's afternoon plan was disrupted. Mr. Peabody asked him to play with the dog for a while, on the grounds that he was too old to play with Lisa—his physical strength was not strong enough to support him. Activity level of an Alaskan Malamute.
So Eric could only put down his textbooks, and spent the afternoon throwing the Frisbee with this stupid dog—almost two or three hours, repeating the action of throwing the Frisbee hard, waiting for Lisa to pick it up, and then continuing to throw it hard.
Eric felt physically and mentally exhausted.
In the past six months or so, he has seldom had such a large amount of exercise. Since Eric decided to skip a grade and enter the law department of Oxford University, he has become a half-nerd-he has to complete high-study tasks every day, and occasionally goes out to Volunteering, his only exercise is limited to walking or similar gentle activities.
So this afternoon he was fucked to death by a dog.
And Lisa's real owner was sitting on his picnic mat drinking his drink, laughing and laughing.
When the sun went down, this tormenting activity was settled. Mr. Peabody took Lisa to say goodbye to him. Before parting, he again invited him to be a guest when he was free, "Lisa and I are very welcome. You come to play, and my grandson is a top student in the Oxford law department, if you have any questions, he will be happy to help you."
Another top student in the Oxford Law Department!
Eric exclaimed in his heart, this is the third Oxford student he has met in eight years, Ed, Lauren and Peabody's grandson, when did Oxford law students become so bad? !
Mr. Peabody's mentor couldn't see Eric's inner voice this time. He led Lisa back in the direction he walked slowly, and soon disappeared.
It's getting dark soon
"I'm going back to the United States soon, and I'll take some pictures." Eric replied.
"Oh, friend from afar, I didn't expect you to go back so soon." Lauren said in a very exaggerated tone, "I didn't even have time to show my kindness to the landlord."
Eric almost rolled his eyes at this guy, "Ed's uncle's family treated me very well." He didn't know this guy very well.
"Let me treat you to ice cream!" Obviously, Lauren couldn't understand what Eric said, and insisted on showing his friendship as a landlord.
Eating ice cream in winter? !Eric accepts incompetence, and he really doesn't know Lauren well! !But before Eric could struggle, he was dragged over to buy two ice creams, one vanilla and one chocolate.
"Little devil, this is for you." Lauren paid, took the chocolate ice cream and handed it to him, then took another one and ate it.Eric knew that this ice cream shop was very famous. It used to be an Italian ice cream workshop, and it started to open chain stores all over Europe in recent years.But no matter how delicious the ice cream is, it can't change the fact that he and Lauren have only met for the second time.Standing on the side of the street and eating ice cream with a person who has only met twice, this is really an experience he has never had.
Lauren didn't care about that, he was lazily leaning against the wall, his eyes squinted comfortably, Eric was standing on his left, with a camera hanging around his neck, and an ice cream in his hand foolishly.
"Is America fun?" Lauren asked suddenly.
Eric didn't think about how to answer, Lauren has already said, "You have to go and see for yourself to find out." Then, he straightened up and grabbed Eric's camera, "Little devil, let's take a group photo Let's go!" Then he opened the camera talking to himself, and pressed the shutter before Eric could react.
"Remember to send me the photos when you go back," he continued to talk to himself, "I will ask Ed to give you my email address, and the photos must be deleted!"
Then Lauren picked up the phone and looked at the time, "It's getting late! I'm going back, goodbye kid!" He waved his hand and left very coolly.
Eric stood where he was, feeling inexplicable about what happened just now.
Lauren Fernandez is such a weirdo.
determination
The day of Eric's departure was forced to be brought forward.
Although he really wanted to pack his bags as planned, say goodbye to the Eastwoods, and maybe see Ed one last time.But the plan obviously cannot keep up with the changes.
Chuck Bass, his future stepbrother, was going back to New York after his vacation, and then he didn't know whether it was Lily's request or Bart's order. He came to London to pick Eric up.
Yes, Chuck will soon be part of his family, as Bart proposes to Lily on Christmas Day.Serena was there to attest that Bart came over to join them for the holidays and pulled a huge Harry Winston diamond out of his pocket.Although Lily did not agree of course, Eric still thought that it would be a matter of time before she changed her surname to Bass.
Eric only had time to say goodbye to Linnie, no one else was home, and Chuck obviously wouldn't have the patience to wait for him for too long.He could only stuff all his things into the suitcase, forgetting the lunch he should have had at this time, and hurried out to take a taxi to the airport.
When Eric boarded the Bass family's private jet, he found that Chuck was not alone, and Nat was also on the plane.
"I think you guys went on vacation together," Eric said.
"Yes," Nat replied, "Chuck invited me to Monaco before Christmas."
"Abandoning Blair?" Eric was puzzled, "I thought you wanted to make up with her."
"Blair's not easy to please," Chuck joined their conversation. "I think Nat Neal needs a relaxing vacation."
Since Blair is hard to please, shouldn't he work harder to please him?
The messy relationship between Blair, Nat and Chuck is the last thing Eric wants to worry about this year.He didn't want to expose the loopholes in Chuck's words. He just wanted to ask the flight attendant to bring him a lunch. His most urgent need now was to fill his stomach.
Airplane food is never good, but it's better than nothing, and Eric finished his lunch and took a good night's sleep.His vacation is over, and now he's heading back to Manhattan to resume his battle with Gossip Girl.
Eight hours later, Eric set foot on American soil again.Lily sent a car to pick him up to Cinderella for a family dinner at the Van der Woolsen's house, where Chuck and Nat went their separate ways.
However, when Eric arrived at the restaurant, the table reserved by the Van der Woolsen's family was still empty.Lily and Serena hadn't attended yet, but he, who had just returned from the other side of the Atlantic, was the first to sit at the table.
However, he didn't wait too long. When he turned to the fifth page of GossipGirl's promotion news, the two blond beauties from the Van der Woolsen family were also seated.
Lily ordered a meal, accepted the restaurant's recommendation and ordered duck meat, and ordered a bottle of sherry with great interest.
The meal went well. They celebrated Eric's return and exchanged views on their winter vacation life.It's rare for Eric to feel such a warm family atmosphere, although this kind of warmth only lasts until the plate is removed.
After the plates of the last course were cleared, the waiter brought dessert—Eric's favorite lemon cake.Eric ate the whole cake, he really thought it was good to be back, although life in England was warm, but Manhattan was his home.
But after dessert, Eric will face the fate of going to the Palace Hotel alone.Serena is going on a date with Dan, and Lily, recently rekindled her relationship with Rufus -- though she hasn't yet turned down Bart's marriage proposal.
Oh, and his mom and sister are famous socialites.
When the school resumed classes, Eric once again resumed his life as a top student. He went to and from class on time every day, and carefully completed various papers.After class, he wondered if he'd have a meeting with his friend Jonathan about dealing with Gossip Girl -- something that wasn't going well.The two nine-year-old teenagers have limited abilities. Of course, pocket money is also limited. They haven't received their own funds yet. They are not Chuck Bass.
Therefore, given the lack of manpower and material resources, the two teenagers can only temporarily monitor Gossip Girl's movements through a mailbox, and they have to be careful, lest Gossip Girl give up the current mailbox and make all their previous work go to waste.
Life can only move forward slowly through repetition, and Eric can only do his best.
In February, the school had a new principal, a hard-line female principal, although she did not have a solid background.Then there's a drowning at Serena's swimsuit party—although the ambulance arrives in time and no one dies, it's enough for the headmaster to throw a tantrum, especially when the headmaster is in dire need of affirmation.
Of course this whole incident had nothing to do with Eric, who wasn't at the party and couldn't be of much help when the group of teenagers banded together to fight the principal.But he believes in the protagonist effect, and he firmly believes that Serena and Blair can always pull through.
But on the night Serena surrendered to the principal and was punished for 24 hours of community service, Lily agreed to Bart's marriage proposal.They threw a house party, with just the Bass and the VanderWolsen three in attendance, to celebrate their becoming a family.
Lily quickly decided that the family would move into the Bass apartment, at least until their own house was finished.Then Lily began to be busy planning the wedding. For her, the wedding was more difficult than the marriage partner.
Then, just before spring break, Constance's biggest scandal of all time erupted - Blair Hodolph slept with two men in one week.This matter did not affect Eric, he was a quiet ninth grade student, although his sister Serena was the center of all the scandals, but his natural soy sauce attributes almost made him immune to all scandals——Ai Rick thought it was a good thing, he wasn't Jenny Humphrey, he didn't want to be anyone's talking point.
Speaking of Jenny Humphrey, she poured oil on the Blair scandal, which completely broke the relationship between Nat, Chuck and Blair.She wanted too much to gain a place in Constance's social circle, and Blair was the biggest obstacle to her climbing up.She is also too talented in intrigue, so let her do things right.
But this matter has nothing to do with Eric, he has not been affected in any way, except that Serena rarely comes to ask for his help.Feeling overwhelmed by the scandal, Blair hurts Serena with her unscrupulous words under pressure, and everyone abandons her. She wants to escape Manhattan and fly to France.Serena also encountered many problems. She thought that Dan had exposed Blair's secret but dared not admit it, so when Dan confessed that "I love you", she could only be dumbfounded.
"Haven't you thought about other possibilities of leaking secrets?" Eric listened to Serena's retelling, and said his thoughts directly, "Do you know how many times I heard you and Dan talking about secrets? Can you guarantee Didn't Jenny overhear your conversation?"
Serena obviously did not think of this possibility.
"You know, not everyone is as secretive as I think it sounds. Jenny is obviously more willing to trade Blair's scandal in exchange for more social space at Constance?" Eric continued, "Blair is her worst enemy."
Serena listened to him, "So Jenny told the truth."
"Compared to Jenny, I think Dan's character is more trustworthy," Eric concluded. "Your boyfriend will not be involved in this scandal without some reason."
Serena thinks this explanation is entirely possible, and after thinking everything through, she feels like going out to make up for her mistakes, "Thank you for listening to me today, Eric. I think I have to get out soon , so before you know it, you have become smarter than me."
"Good luck," Eric said.
Serena grabbed her handbag in a hurry and went out the door.Eric knew that she would go to Dan to respond to the sentence I love you first, and then dare to go to the airport to prevent Blair from leaving.He also knew that what he said today had planted a bad impression of Jenny in Serena's heart, and he would write down everything that happened today.
He's going to document the damage GossipGirl did to Serena and everyone Serena loves, and then bring it all to Serena when Dan reveals his true colors.Can love undo harm?Eric never believed this sentence, only forgetting can erase the damage.In the final analysis, Serena's behavior is to heal the scar and forget the pain, so as long as her scar remains bad, Serena will not be kind to the person who hurt her.
Eric was sitting on the sofa with soothing music playing in his headphones.He watched Serena getting into the car, but the expression on his face remained unchanged.Their life has been filled with deceit from birth, but his older sister, Serena, is the best family ever for Eric, even if she's promiscuous, drugged, and alcoholic.He must not tolerate Daniel Humphrey using countless lies to win Serena's heart.
He wants to protect his family.
春假
The friendship between Serena and Blair can break through all intrigues, although they themselves are masters of intrigue.
Eric didn't care about the follow-up of Blair's incident. Blair has never been a person who is willing to decline, and her quiet time will obviously not be too long.
How to spend the spring break is the most serious problem facing Eric.
Since Lily has agreed to Bart's marriage proposal, the family is now temporarily living in the apartment of the Bass family.Eric was lucky enough to be assigned a separate bedroom, and a supporting maid—a Filipino girl named Samantha.Every day after moving, Eric enjoys the emperor-like treatment of opening his mouth for food and extending his hands for clothes.He also finally understood why Chuck could say "I'mChuckBass" with confidence. Anyone who was born with a diamond spoon in his mouth and grew up enjoying the treatment of the rich among the rich would have the right Gram's confident.
But Eric still didn't feel at ease in the luxurious apartment.One morning, Samantha tried to put his socks on and put his feet in his shoes!
Service that is too attentive will only scare away customers.Eric felt that he was not a real prince, and he didn't have any prince disease.He couldn't look directly at Samantha's figure in servant clothes.He didn't want the girl to lose his job, and he didn't want to accept her overservice, so the only solution left was to go out on spring break to avoid the limelight.
Eric can only hope that his apartment is finished when he gets back from vacation - although that is highly unlikely.
Eric finally decided to go to the Hamptons to pass the vacation time.His grandmother, Sissy, had long retired in the Hamptons, and Eric thought she would be delighted to see her grandson.He tried to call Sissy, and told about his idea of using the spring break to spend time with his grandma, and Sissy really happily agreed to his request.
So what Eric has to do now is to pack up his things quickly and leave a message to his family before going out.He had to catch the last bus out of the city before 8 o'clock, and it was already past 6 o'clock.
Hurry up hurry up!Race against the clock and race against the clock!
In order to travel light, Eric tried to fit 5 sets of clothes and 2 pairs of shoes in a small travel bag, as well as a laptop computer, and several large books he used to refer to when writing his thesis ——This seemingly impossible task is ending with Eric's victory, although his box looks like a soup bag that is about to explode.
Since there was not much luggage, Eric decided to carry it downstairs by himself, even though there were a lot of servants who sincerely expressed their willingness to serve.
Eric sternly rejected them.
He walked to the elevator and pressed the down button.Soon, the elevator door opened in front of him with a ding, and Serena stood inside.
"Where are you going, Eric?" Serena asked. "I didn't know you had travel plans for spring break."
"I'm going to spend time with Granny in the Hamptons," Eric replied. "You know I don't have many friends."
"You're so sweet!" Serena raised her eyebrows to show her surprise. "I thought the Hamptons were just for the summer."
"You can just call Hamptons boring and I won't mind."
"You can stay in New York," Serena tried to persuade him to change his mind. "I can't let you go out of town alone."
"Stay here and interrupt your date with Dan?" Eric retorted, "Or was my mother asked to refer to what flowers to use for the wedding?"
"I really don't think there's anything wrong with going out of town to spend time with the elderly." Eric finally concluded, "I don't like the spring in Hampton, at least it's quiet."
"So, can you let me in the elevator now?"
Serena couldn't say no to Eric, his younger brother became more and more assertive, he was no longer an obedient little boy, and Serena suddenly felt the faint sorrow brought to her sister by her younger brother growing up.
"Hey! Eric, at least let me take you downstairs!" She said at the last second when the elevator door closed, pressed the button to let the door reopen, and then walked in and hugged her brother's shoulders, "I wish you a happy life in Han Have a great time Puton!"
Eric arrived in Hampton before 11 o'clock, even if Sissy sent a car to pick him up, it was almost midnight when he walked into the Ross family's country house.
Sissy was getting old, and she had been in poor health for the past few years, so she went to bed early.Now the whole house is only lit with a few lights on the first floor. The light is dim, as if the candle light will be blown out by the wind.
The butler is still awake, he needs to settle Eric before he can rest.The housekeeper, Mr. Reid, was born in the best housekeeping school in the world, and has worked in the Ross family all his life.
He saved Eric's dinner, which was kept at the perfect temperature in the kitchen.Eric thanked him for his thoughtfulness, settled the meal with the extra milk that Rhett brought up, and then went upstairs to find his room.
His room is the second one on the west side of the second floor, and it has not changed since he was a child.Although he lived in Manhattan now, and he probably wouldn't come back for two or three years, Sissy kept his room, Serena's, Lily's, and Aunt Carol's.It was only at this time that Eric felt that Sissy was just an ordinary old man, the mother of two daughters, and the grandmother of the children, not the gin-smelling Ross she showed outside. Miss.
The emotion between the Rhodes family is very strange.His grandmother Sissy, who puts family honor above everything else, has nothing to do with her two daughters; Aunt Carol, who is almost invisible at home, is rebellious in middle age like an adolescent girl, insisting on money Corrupting the soul, now living alone away from New York; Mom Lily, who is almost a copy of Sissy, who is a good social person, but really not very good at being a wife and mother; and then Serena, who used to be Drugged, promiscuous, alcoholic, and now a poor boy, longing to be a good wife and mother.The Rhodes family had too many famous women. Eric, as the only boy in the family for three generations, lived like a soy sauce.
Fortunately, Eric doesn't care about these.He was a kid who craved company until he was 14, but now he's able to handle life on his own.
At the end of the day, Eric didn't disturb anyone, opened the door, put his luggage on the bed, went into the bathroom, took a hot shower, and then lay down in the big bed to sleep all night.
He had a dream.
When I was a child, it was summer.
The sun was scorching hot outside the window, and Cicada's cry shook the sky.He was still about 7 or 8 years old, with a round face and golden hair, as beautiful as a doll.
He spent the summer vacation in Hampton, and he caught longhorn beetles in the nearby woods with a net pole on his back, and kept it in a cage to write his observation diary.He has been in school for a while, but not too long, and his handwriting doesn't even have a shape.
Sister Serena is also in the Hamptons, where three of her playmates all have homes.They came to the Hamptons together for the summer.
Blair and Nat have been dating since kindergarten, and they are also young couples now, holding hands and walking along the seaside every day; Chuck has already developed the embryonic form of a playboy, wandering among countless little beauties in a smooth manner; and Serena, who is still a little sunshine, loves all kinds of ocean activities, surfing and swimming, and has a lot of fun.
He saw his mother and grandmother sitting peacefully under the umbrella, holding fruit wine in their hands, with a happy expression on their faces.
He himself is just a kid, and he doesn't have to think about anything outside of playing.
The sky was cloudless and clear, and even the wind seemed to carry a fresh fragrance.
Everything is as beautiful as a dream.
Then Eric woke up, there was no cicadas outside the window, replaced by the new shoots of the trees in early spring and the sporadic crisp birdsong.
a beautiful morning!
Eric sat up from the bed and stretched out his hand to open the curtains.The gentle sunlight shone into the room along the frame of the window, casting a whole golden shadow, and the air that poured in with it smelled of leaves, and a few birds were startled, chirping and flying away.
Eric didn't have time to express more emotion, and there was a knock on the door behind him.
"Master Eric," Rhett's voice came after three knocks on the door, "I'm Rhett."
"Hi Rhett," Eric replied, "I'm awake."
"May I ask how you prepare your breakfast? Do you go downstairs to eat with your wife or bring it up for you?"
"Please ask grandma to wait for a while, I will go downstairs to have dinner with her right away."
Eric didn't have time to listen to what Rhett said next, he needed to hurry up to wash and change clothes.At this time, he was glad that he was a boy, at least he saved the time for makeup.
After Eric went downstairs, he was led to the courtyard of the villa.Sissy's house has a large garden, and the gardener has decorated it very delicately.
A dining table had been set on the garden lawn, covered with a dressy white tablecloth, on which were two sets of fine cutlery.Rhett and other servants are serving meals at the table.
Eric saw that there was already a person sitting at the dining table, and he walked over, his shoes rustling on the grass.
Sissy turned her head, she is a very attractive woman, years can kill her youth without losing her charm.Her blond hair faded to a nearly white pale blond, and she pulled it back into a bun.
She smiled faintly, "Good morning, Eric! I'm glad you can accompany me to breakfast."
Old friend
Eric couldn't tell what kind of woman Sissy Rhodes was.
She is rich, there is no doubt about it, Lily gave up her true love because Sissi did not give up the threat of inheritance, one can imagine the wealth behind Sissi; she is very elegant, she must have been a beauty when she was young, and now the years still favor her Keep her shining; she is the chairman of several committees, and she is a heavyweight in New York's upper-class social circle. She has rich marriage experience. Her husband's people are extraordinary, but she chose to return to being single in the end; she has two children, both daughters, but the relationship between mother and daughter is not good... She has many titles and a lot of money, she has enough Ability to do everything well, but powerless to the family.
Then she gets old.
Her ex-husbands gradually passed away, her children grew up and married, a third generation in the family was born, and gradually her grandchildren grew up.
She is really old.
"Eric, try this caramelized banana, my chef recently developed a new dessert," she put down her fork, "My doctor recently restricted me from eating desserts, and you come to the Hamptons just to satisfy my cravings. "Sissy stopped eating, she ate very little, and Eric could hardly see that the food on the table was moving.
"Thank you," Eric followed her introduction and tried to take a bite, "It's delicious."
"Eat more if you think it tastes good," Sissy continued, "A child of your age has a god-given appetite."
"You just need to eat a little more," Eric said. "Looking at you, I thought you were too old to eat food."
"Of course I'm not that old," Sissy said, and she didn't defend herself, just took a few symbolic sips from her teacup again. "What have Lily and Serena been up to lately?"
Eric hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth, "Grandma, I know that Mom has decided to marry Bart Bass. She recently contacted a wedding planner to prepare for her first...um...fourth wedding. Lena, she's busy with dates, with Blair, and SAT preparation."
"Serena is still dating Daniel Humphrey?"
"Yes, Serena sees Dan as a soul mate," Eric replied, "their relationship is bonded, and nothing or anyone can break them apart for the time being."
"Maybe Lily used inheritance to solve this problem like I did back then," Sissy said.
Eric was noncommittal about this suggestion, "I don't think the matter is so serious. Serena is still a middle school student, and they haven't reached the point where they are talking about marriage, so there is no need for such decisive means. In addition, my mother's opinion of Dan Not bad impression."
"Of course, she herself has been obsessed with another Humphrey." Sissy said, "But sooner or later they will find that love can't be eaten, and young people are always easy to get carried away."
The brunch passed amid the schmoozing between grandparents and grandchildren.Sissy's next itinerary is to receive a group of committee members. This year's summer white party is scheduled to be held by Sissy. They need to discuss various details of holding the party.Eric didn't want to participate in the preparation of such an event, and Sissy also thought that the boy didn't need to learn these things, so they made an appointment to have dinner together in the evening, and Eric could allocate the rest of the day independently.
Eric decided to go to the beach to relax. He packed his textbooks, and Rhett asked the maid to prepare a picnic basket for him to take away, which contained fruit, sandwiches for lunch and mineral water.Eric was not old enough to drive, and he didn't want to have a chauffeur on call, so he ended up finding a bicycle in the garage to use as a ride.
Fortunately, Sissy's house is close to the sea, and the temperature in spring is also very pleasant. Eric rode all the way against the wind and reached the beach easily.He took out the cushions from the picnic basket and spread them on the beach away from the coastline. The sun was very mild today, so he didn't need an umbrella or anything. He just needed to find a place where no one was around and sit quietly.
He took out his civil law textbook and began to preview his homework.Eric plans to take a summer study trip to Oxford, where he can get a bed in a dormitory in Oxford and then undergo a series of pre-university training at the university.After the end of this semester, he will have completed half of the four-year courses in high school.In the second half of the year, he decided to skip grades directly to the third year of high school, complete the remaining general courses and then take the SAT test.He also needs to spend enough time in community service activities in the two school years of this year and next year, and has enough time to save a resume enough to apply for a prestigious school.
So he's going to be busy next time.
But someone interrupted his study very ignorantly.
It was an old man, and of course an old man who could show up to walk his dog on a private beach in the Hamptons would obviously not be any ordinary old man.
This old man has a good bearing, and his attire also shows that his family is in good condition.And his dog, a tall Alaskan malamute—the dog’s ethos can also reflect his family’s conditions—his master has the leisure and money to keep the dog full of spirit.
In fact, the process of Eric's interrupted study was like this - first an Alaskan sled dog appeared on the edge of the beach as far as he could see. It was very tall, with shiny skin, and its hair was combed very fluffy. This makes it look majestic, with a gold collar around its neck, a name tag and of course a retractable chain, so the dog owner appears right after his pet, a dwarf A fat old man, wearing a shirt and a cashmere vest, his head is a little bald, with a natural and comfortable expression on his face.
That was a stupid dog, Eric thought afterward.
"Wow!" He didn't see how the tall sled dog rushed towards him with hugs and hugs. Eric only knew that he was overwhelmed by a huge momentum, and then a hot, thick, stabbed The thing brushed towards his face, leaving sticky drool all over his face.At the same time, Eric seemed to be able to see the big fluffy tail wagging behind the big dog.
Eric quickly realized that the big dog had an owner, because his chest was a little sore from a square plate. From the touch, Eric thought it was a dog tag - usually engraved with A dog tag with the dog's name and the owner's telephone address.He also felt the chain around the neck of the big dog, and the laughter of an elderly man.
"Oh, hehe~" he was still laughing, "Lisa, come back soon after you've had enough licking!" He didn't stop his pet's behavior at all, but let it make out with a stranger.
Eric managed to break free from the embrace of a dog. After he picked up the textbook that had fallen to the side and wiped off the sand that had just rolled on the beach, he really saw the person who had ruined his study. What does a dog look like.
"Hey! Boy! My dog likes you!" Eric heard the old man say, as if it was a great honor to be liked by a dog.
He couldn't help curling his lips.
"I'm Tweek Peabody, I live nearby," the old man introduced himself as he sat down familiarly. "This is my dog Lisa. She likes you very much."
"I think I've met you lad, but forgive me for being too old to remember your name."
"I'm Eric van der Woolsen, and I recently came to the Hamptons for spring break." Eric also introduced himself.
Mr. Peabody's memory was obviously awakened, "I remember you, you are Sissy's grandson. You used to come to the Hamptons when you were a child, but since you and your sister...uh..."
"Serena, Serena VanderWolsen, my sister's name." Eric had to remind him.
Mr. Peabody followed Eric's words naturally, "I haven't seen you much since you started school."
His memory seems to be opened by an unknown clue, and then the memory will come out continuously, "Your sister impresses me, she was very lively and active when she was young, right?! I remember she likes all water sports, I was also his swimming instructor. As for you, you were a shy little fellow in those days, and liked to run after the older ones, and you caught insects in the nearby woods..."
Through Mr. Peabody's memories of their childhood, Eric was sure that he should be an old acquaintance of the Rhodes family, but he really couldn't remember such an old gentleman participating in his childhood.The toddler's memory is unreliable, and it can only be said that he really hasn't seen Mr. Peabody since he remembered.
"You must not remember me," he seemed to understand Eric's confusion, and immediately explained, "I moved to the UK after you were three years old. I just moved back and now live with my grandson. .”
"Sissi and I are old friends," he summed up the conversation above. "You can also be treated as an elder. If you are free, please come to my house to play. My grandson and I will entertain you well."
old story
Eric really couldn't remember the memories before the age of three, but Mr. Peabody didn't care about it either.
However, it is an indisputable fact that Eric's afternoon plan was disrupted. Mr. Peabody asked him to play with the dog for a while, on the grounds that he was too old to play with Lisa—his physical strength was not strong enough to support him. Activity level of an Alaskan Malamute.
So Eric could only put down his textbooks, and spent the afternoon throwing the Frisbee with this stupid dog—almost two or three hours, repeating the action of throwing the Frisbee hard, waiting for Lisa to pick it up, and then continuing to throw it hard.
Eric felt physically and mentally exhausted.
In the past six months or so, he has seldom had such a large amount of exercise. Since Eric decided to skip a grade and enter the law department of Oxford University, he has become a half-nerd-he has to complete high-study tasks every day, and occasionally goes out to Volunteering, his only exercise is limited to walking or similar gentle activities.
So this afternoon he was fucked to death by a dog.
And Lisa's real owner was sitting on his picnic mat drinking his drink, laughing and laughing.
When the sun went down, this tormenting activity was settled. Mr. Peabody took Lisa to say goodbye to him. Before parting, he again invited him to be a guest when he was free, "Lisa and I are very welcome. You come to play, and my grandson is a top student in the Oxford law department, if you have any questions, he will be happy to help you."
Another top student in the Oxford Law Department!
Eric exclaimed in his heart, this is the third Oxford student he has met in eight years, Ed, Lauren and Peabody's grandson, when did Oxford law students become so bad? !
Mr. Peabody's mentor couldn't see Eric's inner voice this time. He led Lisa back in the direction he walked slowly, and soon disappeared.
It's getting dark soon
