Chapter 886 I Want to Read Children's Books
I took another sip and tasted the red beans in the picture. They were sweet and sticky and tasted great.
"Who would have thought that red beans could be put into tea?"
Jack's face was filled with a smile of surprise. This red bean milk tea was so delicious!
"Mr. Zhu, where did you buy this milk tea?"
Jack thought that when he returned home in a few days, he would buy some and bring them back for his family and friends to try.
"There's a convenience store here, oh, it's like a grocery store. It has everything, and the food, drinks, and entertainment options are different from other stores. I'll take you there later."
Zhu Ronghai was happy to be the guide, so that he could have a good look around. He had been busy with business recently and hadn't been to Lin's Convenience Store for a long time.
"Okay! Thank you so much then, hahahaha."
Jack laughed heartily, and the cooperation agreement was signed between the two parties while they were chatting and laughing.
"Master, it's time to eat."
At around twelve o'clock, a servant called out outside the door that it was time for dinner.
"Mr. Jack, this way please."
Zhu Ronghai immediately stood up and invited Jack to go to the restaurant together.
He didn't know whether Jack was looking forward to it or not, but he was really looking forward to this meal today.
When they arrived at the restaurant, after Jack sat down, Zhu Ronghai and his family also sat down.
The Zhu family did not have the rule of having men and women sit at different tables, or adults and children sit at different tables, so the entire Zhu family sat down together.
Jack also liked this lively and loving scene, and he felt more and more that his partner was a very trustworthy person.
"Good afternoon, uncle~"
Zhu Ronghai's five-year-old grandson suddenly jumped out of his seat, ran to Jack and greeted him in English.
Jack was completely confused by the standard accent. Is this a foreign kid?
"Xiaobao, come here quickly. Don't show off your poor English skills to Uncle Jack."
Although Zhu Ronghai said this, the expression on his face was full of doting.
“No, no, no, your kid is great!
Are you inviting a gentleman to your home?"
Jack realized it only when he saw the child jumping away from him. The child looked like a typical Dayi Chinese, and there didn't seem to be any foreign genes in Boss Zhu's family.
So there is only one possibility, the Zhu family hired a teacher, and with such a standard accent, he is most likely a foreigner.
The Zhu family often trades with merchants from other countries, so it is possible to hire a foreign gentleman.
"No, no, I just bought him some foreign books. He read them every day and he'll learn them."
Zhu Ronghai explained.
Where are the gentlemen who can speak foreign languages here?
"Oh? There is such a magical book?
Can I borrow it after dinner?"
Jack was extremely curious. In fact, he couldn't wait to see this book that could pronounce itself.
But because of his good character and the fact that everyone was waiting to eat, he suppressed the urge in his heart and thought about watching it after dinner.
"Of course that's no problem!"
Zhu Ronghai readily agreed, as he had plenty of these books at home.
In the past, the house was full of toys, and my grandson didn’t like to read at all. He was young, and beating and scolding him would only backfire and make the child even less interested in reading.
But ever since my son and daughter-in-law bought a lot of self-pronouncing books from Lin’s Maternity and Baby Store, he has become a different person. He wants to read every day and even listens to bedtime stories with a book before going to bed.
Originally he was thinking, what could be different about this book?
As a result, I flipped through a few pages and was completely fascinated.
In addition to the colorful patterns inside, you can also watch and listen at the same time.
The stories are all very meaningful, and the most amazing thing is that some of the stories are read by different characters! They can directly bring you to the scene.
So, not to mention his five-year-old grandson, the whole family has read these books several times.
They can also learn simplified versions of words in books based on pronunciation. Those words look very similar to the words they write now, but are simpler.
Just like the Arabic numerals that many people know now, they are difficult to learn but extremely easy to use.
As he was speaking, the maid started serving the dishes.
I saw six maids holding a covered tray in their hands. They placed one in front of each person, then opened the lid and retreated.
"steak?!
Brother Zhu is really thoughtful!"
Jack was deeply moved when he saw the sliced steak on the spotless white plate, decorated with some cherry tomatoes and pumpkin cubes.
He knew that the people of Dayi Country didn't eat much beef, not because it tasted bad, but because it was hard to buy.
And they don't know how to cook it this way, so this steak looks very good, it must have been made by the Zhu family.
