The Elliotts had just moved in, and the Elliotts hadn't had time to develop a social circle, and the Hollands were currently the Elliotts' closest neighbors.

Dominique and Nikki soon invite the Elliotts to their home.

Nikki asked which school Grace went to, and Dominique said that Tom went to Don Hyde Preparatory School, and the twins will also go to this school in September, but this school is an all-boys school with a Catholic background.

The Eliots deftly avoid talking about their religious background.Mrs. Elliott's English name is Juliet. In fact, she has not changed her surname. She uses her Chinese surname Yao, which is not difficult to pronounce, and the British can pronounce it very accurately.Mr Elliott's name is David.Both parents call each other names.

Tom Holland invites Grace to his room and is busy giving her his Legos to play with.

Grace had been generous enough to let them play on her trampoline, and he should have given her his favorite toys.

After Juliet came home, she said that the Hollands were not bad, and that the three boys were well-educated.She has always thought that one can tell by looking at the children if the family is well-bred.A well-educated family will educate their children well, and it is a time-tested truth that bad children have bad parents.

Dominique also invited the Elliott family to see him perform at the community theater in a few days. He is an actor, screenwriter, and has his own performances in local theaters in Kingston.

Dominique is a small man, 167cm tall, and he often jokes about his height.Nikki was about the same height as her husband.

The Elliotts are both very tall. David Elliott is 183cm tall, and Juliet is also 172cm tall. Grace's height is only average for an 11-year-old girl. Juliet said it was because she hadn't reached puberty yet. Start to grow rapidly.

Both the Elliotts and the Hollands went to the theater to see Dominique perform over the weekend.

With 3 adults and 4 children, it is a bit difficult to arrange this seat.In the end, Juliet and Nikki sat next to each other, with Juliet next to Grace, Tom, and then David; the twins sat on the other side of Nikki.

Nikki has been pregnant for more than 3 months, and her lower abdomen has not yet bulged.The twins often forget that there is a baby in the mother's womb, and they always run around bluffing. Tom is already like a big brother, and he will restrain the younger brothers.

Grace wore a dark red velvet dress today, matched it with a creamy white long-sleeved thin sweater, and carried a small flower-shaped satchel on her back. She was a beautiful and delicate fairy girl.

Of course, boys have a standard aesthetic line, and the Holland brothers all think Grace is very beautiful.Nikki said more than once that it would be nice if there was a girl in the family, and the three brothers all hoped that the baby would be a girl.Now that Grace has become what Nikki often calls "other people's girl", they all feel that it would be nice if the baby was as cute as Grace.

Tom is going to dance lessons, usually Dad will drive him to the dance studio, and he will be away in the morning 5 days a week.

Grace is homeschooling.

She has her own computer, both a desktop and a laptop, and the Elliotts don't limit the amount of time she spends online each day, much to the Holland brothers' envy.

The twins are too young to have their own computers, and Tom has one that he uses for homework, but with time constraints.He also doesn't have a cell phone, while Grace already has her own.

Speaking of this, he sighed, "Mom said I can't have my own mobile phone until I'm 12."

Grace nodded, "You have to go to middle school to have your own mobile phone."

"But you haven't been to high school yet."

She smiled, "I will be in grade 9 in September."

Tom looked at her in surprise: "You skipped a grade!"

"Correct."

He's a bit awkward: so she's 3 grades ahead of him!According to her age, she should be in grade 6 after school starts.He is in grade 4.It occurred to him that by the time he was in seventh grade, Grace would be in tenth grade.

Grace doesn't seem to care about the difference between the three grades. She has a lot of toys, no, not just children's toys, she has a lot of electronic equipment, or the latest high-tech products, such as balance cars—— The kids in the neighborhood still skateboard, and she already has a sleek balance bike.

The twins haven't gotten tired of the trampoline yet, and Dominique sometimes brings them over to play.Grace was generous and would let the boys play with her high-tech toys, save for the drone.

There was a workbench against the wall of the garage, and when it wasn't raining, David would drive out of the garage and Grace would work in the garage.It took Tom a long time to realize that she was taking the drone apart and putting it back together again.

He doesn't know how much the drone is worth, but this kind of high technology must be very expensive!He also suddenly realized that the Elliott family was quite rich.

Children are actually very sensitive. The economic situation of a family can be seen from the decoration of the room. Although adults will tell you, don’t care about money and other external things. Friendship is not distinguished by family savings, but How is it possible that children actually don't care about this?

For example, apart from high-tech toys, Grace can eat whatever she wants at home. She has boxes of chocolates and chocolate chips in her room and garage, various wafer chocolate bars, chocolate peanut butter, Popcorn, but not too much Coke.The twins agree that Grace's life is too beautiful, and they strongly demand that there be chocolates at home.

She can also eat ice cream as much as she wants, and there are at least 3 flavors of ice cream in tubs in the freezer.

Juliet was at home that day, and she took out a bucket of vanilla ice cream, scooped it into balls with an ice cream scoop, put them in small cut glass bowls, and called the children over to eat ice cream.

Grace took out a large bag of M&Ms and put a handful of them in each bowl.

Children love sweets, without exception.

The twins have been quickly bought into the chocolates and think Grace's is awesome!

Dominic had nothing to say, and only told Nikki after returning home that the snacks at Elliott's family were too high in calories, and none of their family was fat!

Harry asked, "What are calories?"

"It is a unit of heat. For example, your lunch at noon is 1000 calories, but the chocolate you ate at Grace's just now can have 2000 calories. You are still children, and children only need 1500 calories a day. These extra calories will become Fat." Nikki pinched Harry's little face.

Tom felt strongly that his mother was exaggerating.Mom and Dad don't let them eat too much sweets, because they are worried that they will get dental caries, which is very painful. Every time he goes to the dentist's office for an examination, some children cry out horribly because they want to fill the cavities.

Sam said, "But chocolate is delicious. I like chocolate." He looked at his mother anxiously.

Harry also nodded vigorously: "Chocolate is delicious!"

Nikki looked at her eldest son, "What about you?"

"Grace said that there are not many happy things, and chocolate can make her feel happy, so she likes to eat chocolate." He actually didn't quite understand this sentence.

Dominic couldn't help sighing, "She's right. Nikki, it's just a little chocolate, it won't do anything."

The boys got more chocolate than ever and were of course super happy!

The Elliott family quickly became familiar with life in their new home.

Grace was taught to code at home by her father, taking two hours of class every morning and then reading by herself.After eating at noon, I went out to ride a bicycle with Tom to stroll around.She has a small bicycle that is 9% new and has been painted tiger-stripe herself.

Tom thinks she's very cool.

Grace felt that the boys in the Holland family were okay, mainly because the boys were not bad boys, and Tom would look at the younger brothers and not let them touch her things.She doesn't like other people to touch her things, not even her parents.

Boys, that's all right.

The boys at school are either stupid or ugly, not many polite and cute boys.

Tom is a very naughty boy. He learned some new dance steps in the dance school and wanted to show off in front of her. He had a strong desire to perform, and the Hollanders also encouraged their son.

Grace is not very interested in Tom's dancing skills, she does not have a high level of artistic appreciation, and prefers to stay in the garage more often.Their common interest may only be the Harry Potter novels and movies.They talked about last summer's hit "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" movie, and about this year's upcoming "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire."

Grace doesn't like Prisoner of Azkaban, but prefers the Goblet of Fire. "It's nice that Rowling finally wrote about other countries' wizarding schools."

"I like Quidditch!" Sam said enthusiastically.

"I like Quidditch too!" Harry said hastily.

"Quidditch is really great!" Tom also said.

"Well, one of the fun things about Harry Potter is that they conceived of Quidditch."

"Do you like it too?" Tom asked.

"It's okay. In the not-too-distant future, you may be able to play 3D Quidditch on your home console."

"What's that?" Harry asked.

"That's it - you have worn 3D glasses to watch movies, right? In the future, there will be more high-tech wearable devices that allow you to experience the Quidditch game in a virtual scene. There are other games." Grace thought about what Can say so that the 6-year-old twins can understand, "Have you seen Keanu Reeves' Johnny Mnemonic? No? You can go home and ask Mr. Holland to buy a CD and come back and watch it. It's very interesting." Yes. Keanu Reeves wears a headset in it, which is also the most likely first commercialized virtual wearable device, with a gamepad or gloves, and other external devices, you can play at home Quidditch."

Let alone twins, even Tom couldn't quite understand what she was saying.

In short, it's cool!
