Miss Star, spoiled by her father and brother

Chapter 379 Home Alone

The busy holiday season is only halfway left, and the Sivers family plans to travel and escape the summer heat in the second half of the month.

While the family was happily discussing and making plans, Xu Weiwei's expression was a little strange.

Mrs. Seaforth noticed this and asked her gently, "What's wrong? Any thoughts or concerns?"

Xu Weiwei hesitated and said what was in her mind, "I don't want to go on this year's trip. I'll just stay at home. Is that ok?"

"Why?" Mrs. Seaforth was a little surprised.

"There are a lot of things to do. I want to get those new Chinese medicines out to the market as soon as possible. It took me two or three months to publish the paper on Panax notoginseng, and that's without any delay."

"Now that so many people have come at once, it will take more effort. When school starts, it will be difficult for me to have a whole block of time to focus on this matter, and the progress will definitely be delayed."

Mrs. Seaforth raised her hand and gently stroked her daughter's hair, reluctantly saying, "Can't you take your time? If your father doesn't go and you don't go either, is this still called a family trip?"

"That's right. If you make an exception, then I won't go either." After Ryan said that, he was hit on the head and cried out in pain.

"Why are you joining in the fun!" the old lady scolded, and her expression changed when she turned to face her granddaughter.

"Hey dear, don't push yourself so hard. You've been working so hard lately, take a break for two days and combine work and rest~"

The old lady coaxed her and gave her some advice: "At worst, you can hand the work over to Dr. Zhang. Hasn't he done it before? He must be very familiar with it."

The old man also agreed: "Yeah! Let's pay a little more money and hire a few more people. If it doesn't work, grandpa will bring you a team to be responsible for this matter."

"You are so frail, and you try to do everything by yourself. What if you get exhausted? You should learn to let go and hand over the work to the people below you. You should spend your time and energy on more valuable things."

Xu Weiwei asked with a smile: "For example? Going out to play?"

"Hey! You can't say that. You are doing mental work! Your brain is the most important! You should use it to create ideas instead of slowly wearing out its brilliance with mechanical, trivial work..."

Xu Weiwei swallowed her saliva. For the first time, she had a clear understanding of her grandfather's other identity as a businessman. Who said that military commanders are not smart? Isn't this a man who is both civil and military?

Politicians may not be as good at talking as her grandfather, right? She was almost convinced.

No wonder the original owner in the comics dared to act so recklessly. It turns out that there is a basis for everything. Who wouldn't be confused if they were praised like this when they were young?

As Kane listened, his shoulders couldn't help but tremble.

"You little brat! What are you laughing at?!" the old man who was interrupted by the laughter asked angrily.

"Nothing, I just admire grandpa's eloquence. It's a pity that he doesn't go to the interstellar conference to fight against the Federation."

"You're welcome to come! I want to hear what you have to say!"

"I won't persuade you. Isn't it a good thing to be ambitious? If it was me and Ryan, or any other male from a noble family, would you dissuade us? Why should girls center their lives around us?"

Kane's words stunned the three elders present.

They realized this problem for the first time. Yes, if it was a man, would they be entangled in this issue? Would they persuade him to give up work and go out to play?

When the three of them were stunned, Kane winked at Ryan: You are not the only one who knows this trick, I got there first, right?

"I support Wei'er in fighting for what she loves!"

"Brother~~~" Xu Weiwei hugged Kane's neck with emotion.

After the elders figured it out, their attitudes changed and they all gave in.

"Bao'er, grandpa doesn't mean that. Just do whatever you want."

"Yes, Baoer, we were not thoughtful enough and only thought about ourselves. You are smart and hardworking, much better than many boys! If you don't want to go, don't go. There will be opportunities in the future."

Xu Weiwei scratched his cheek and said embarrassedly: "I also want to go out and play with everyone, but the task is left here. If I don't complete it, I will always be worried about it in my heart, and I won't be able to play well."

"Besides, Dr. Zhang is not familiar with Chinese medicine, so the experiment will be very troublesome. If I am here, the process will be much faster."

"In that case, we won't try to persuade you. But mom is a little worried about you being home alone," Mrs. Seaforth said worriedly.

Xu Weiwei smiled and said, "Why am I alone? Isn't Dad also in the Imperial Capital? And Brother Ganz comes back once every two weeks. There are also grandparents, uncles and aunts, and so many uncles and aunts in the villa, and my sisters are with me."

"I'm not alone."

Mrs. Seaforth pinched her little nose and sighed, "I really hope you never grow up..."

In this way, Xu Weiwei was left alone at home, while everyone else went on vacation to another planet.

The next day after they left, Xu Weiwei invited Zhang Pete to the glass greenhouse, where the pots of Chinese herbs brought back from Feener were placed.

Xu Weiwei introduced them to Zhang Peter one by one and expressed her desire to collaborate with him to publish a paper.

Zhang Peter stood up excitedly and demonstrated on the spot what it meant to be "at a loss".

"Oh my god! I'm so honored! Thank you, Miss Wei'er! Just let me know if you need me to do anything. You'll be my teacher from now on!"

"Don't dare! Don't call me that. I don't deserve it..."

"No, you totally deserve it! Don't look at my age, I don't have those stinky habits of seniority! Whoever has the ability can be the teacher."

"It's mainly because I'm not used to hearing it. You should just call me by my name." Xu Weiwei insisted with an earnest look in her eyes.

"Well, it's good that you know what I think in my heart. In front of outsiders, I will still call you Miss Wei'er."

The two then began to discuss the details one by one.

Xu Weiwei talked while Zhang Pete took notes, his index finger flying up and down on the laser keyboard, stopping from time to time to ask questions and discuss.

At noon, the maid came to call the two to eat. No one wanted to stop, so lunch was postponed again and again.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Weiwei received a video message from her mother.

After the call was connected, Mrs. Seaforth on the other end looked at her with a stern face and an angry expression: "Selive, now, put down your work and go to dinner with Dr. Zhang. We can talk about it after dinner."

Kane also appeared in the picture, pointing a finger at her and warning her: "Behave yourself, or I'll tie you up. Do you hear me?"

Xu pursed her lips unhappily, then said in a muffled voice: "I know."

After the scene disappeared, Xu Weiwei came to the restaurant angrily, stood there with her hands on her hips, and said angrily: "Who on earth complained to Mom?"

The maids who were busy serving dishes on the assembly line looked at each other, suspicious of each other, but no one admitted it.

Xu Weiwei was as angry as a puffer fish.

Butler Neil came out with a smile, dispersed the crowd, and then helped her pull out the chair, coaxing her kindly: "Don't be angry, miss. Eat first. I'll go down and check later to see who is so mean and reported it."

"If caught, we will punish him severely."

Xu Weiwei nodded heavily at first, then said, "You don't have to be so harsh. As long as she knows she's wrong, that's enough."

"Haha~Okay."
