Grace didn't know whether to laugh or cry. These two children were just rascals.
Grace stood by their side, and listened for a while, before asking, "Isn't it inappropriate for you guys to say such things?"
"Ah, Mommy." Ernest's face immediately turned red with surprise.
Little Gary said nonchalantly, "Mommy, you must be hungry. I'll get Mr. Butler. Let's have dinner together."
"Okay, let's have dinner."
She was really hungry.
The children must be hungry too.
Ernest held Grace's hand and with his arms wrapped around her arm, he called out in an ingratiating manner, "Mommy,"
"I'll keep the cards for you," Grace said. "I'll give it back to you when you are grown up!"
"Mommy, you can use it as you wish," Ernest said. "It's not right for a woman to not have money."
"Kiddo, who did you learn this from?"
"Our teacher," Ernest said. "Our teacher, Miss Holland's monthly salary is quite little. However, she said that if she doesn't work, she will not have a say in her household."
