pasture leisure

Chapter 309
Back at the construction site, Lao Xu heard the news, so he went to Zhang Chi to congratulate him or something.

When I found Zhang Chi, I was always taken aback by Zhang Chi.

I saw Zhang Chi sitting on the sofa under the porch, laughing from time to time, the sound was really creepy like hearing an old raven when you were walking at night.

"Hey, I said, are you so happy?" Lao Xu looked at Zhang Chi and said dumbfounded.

"Happy, here you are, sit down!" Zhang Chi saw Lao Xu standing in front of him, only then did he realize that the ink had run away, and his hand was still in the state of rubbing the ink.

"Here we come, here we come. I heard that you are about to get a little princess. I, Party B, naturally want to come and congratulate you. I wish Party A's father a happy daughter."

Old Xu said with a smile.

Immediately afterwards, Lao Xu said again: "I haven't seen the child yet, so I came here empty-handed, but don't worry, I must prepare a gift when the time comes. I dare not say a big gift, but I will definitely not be perfunctory."

Zhang Chi smiled and waved his hand: "No need, just come over for a drink if you want to, and forget about other things."

Old Xu didn't say anything, but asked again: "Did the family notify you?"

Zhang Chi nodded.

I remembered that in the morning, when I had a video call with my parents and told them that Melika had a baby, my mother and grandma almost burst into tears.

In the end, it was my father and grandfather who persuaded me. If it was close, I guess they would have come to the door by now. It's a pity that they are so far away now, even if they want to come, they can't come.

"Aren't your parents overjoyed?" Old Xu said.

Zhang Chi nodded and smiled, "That's natural."

Old Xu came here and patted Zhang Chi on the shoulder: "Congratulations on becoming a father, but it's not easy to be a father. You have to be ready. From the time the child is born, you can only have fun secretly. If you reach puberty What, that will make you busy."

"You just can't bear it. If I were you, I would have to let your boys know what a complete childhood is," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

After hearing this, Lao Xu glanced at Zhang Chi and said, "Then, can you clean it up? It's not like you don't know the situation here. If you haven't cleaned it up here, the neighbors called the police, and they don't know what happened to me. Let the children provoke them and provoke them."

Lao Xu complained all the time, saying that it is too difficult to raise children in the United States, and there are too many rules and regulations.

And these rules and regulations are prepared for adults, you can do this, you can't do that, so the children in the family look like little devil kings.

Otherwise, Lao Xu wouldn't be thinking about sending his family's children to private schools now.

If the teacher loses the ruler, the students will have no restraint, and the school will become a pasture, but the pasture is for cattle, and the school is for your children.

If you have ever seen a class in an American public school, you will feel that the Americans are coming to an end. The teacher tells the children what to do next, and no one bothers anyone. The teacher leaves after class and just takes a share of the money.The kids learn something?Some children have been studying for ten years and cannot read a complete paragraph.

But if you insist on arguing, if you say that children should be coaxed and reasoned, then I won’t argue with you, you are right.

The United States is absolutely divided into two levels. Children from ordinary families herd cattle when they were young, and continue to herd cattle in society. The children of rich people learn a lot, and continue to harvest children from ordinary families in society.

Not to mention anything else, Melika can speak English, Chinese, Latin, and Spanish. Children from rich families are not born with these things. What kind of things should not be spent on learning?
Coax your child to stop crying. The child of the rich has already learned two words. After a long period of time, your child is still a leek when he enters the society, and the knowledge in the child of the rich has become a new sickle.

Zhang Chi hasn't thought about it so much yet. He is still getting used to the joy of having a daughter soon. The daughter he now thinks is fragrant, white and tender, and has a whining sound when he speaks. The kind that kills people.

"Oh, by the way, Old Xu, do you know where there are big planting boxes?"

Suddenly Zhang Chi said something.

Old Xu was a little confused by Zhang Chi's leaping thinking.

"You ask what this thing is for. If you want to buy this thing, which bigger supermarket doesn't have it?" Old Xu said.

A planter box is a bit like... Hey, forget it, it’s just a wooden box without a cover, in which you can plant flowers, plants, trees and fruits. There are big and small things, and the small ones are like flowerpots.

The big one, the biggest Zhang Chi had ever seen, looked like a truck bucket.

Of course, Zhang Chi definitely doesn't need such a big one, he just wants to get a few bigger ones to grow something.

"The one in the supermarket is too small, I don't like it."

Old Xu said: "Tell me, what are you going to use it for?"

"Growing vegetables, I wondered if Melika is pregnant, so the vegetables should be as fresh as possible. I thought about it, it's better to grow some at home, anyway, the weather is pretty good now, and it's suitable for planting" Zhang Chi said.

Lao Xu was a little dumbfounded. He stared at Zhang Chi for a long time, and then said: "Brother, you are a big brother, really! Fresh, your food is not fresh now? You can't say no to the watery ones. Fresh, so what do I buy?"

Old Xu knew that all the food in Zhang Chi's house was taken from his uncle's house and Aunt Phil's house in Fulson, and they didn't spend any money, but Zhang Chi would send some beef over from time to time.

This is the way of human relations. If you want to talk about who takes advantage and who suffers, then it is meaningless.

About four or five days, Zhang Chi will go for a walk, and when he comes back, there will be one or two baskets of vegetables in the pickup bucket.

You must know that the foreigners here, if they go out to shop, it will definitely be enough for a week, that is, they will not go shopping for home food in the next week.

They don't think it's stale for a week. You're welcome, go there every few days, and you have to go to other people's fields to pick it, and say that the vegetables you get are not fresh.

Why don't you let Lei kill you? !

Seeing Lao Xu staring at himself, Zhang Chi said: "Look at what I am doing, do you know, and if you don't know, you don't know. If you know it, you know it, if you don't know it, you don't know it, that's knowing!"

"Yo, Guwen, if I hadn't only been in the third grade, at least I wouldn't have taught you the whole thing," Old Xu joked.

"Speaking of business, do you know?" Zhang Chi said.

Old Xu said: "Of course I know, but don't be so troublesome. You have to install it after you buy it. You must not wait for someone to come and install it."

Zhang Chi nodded when he heard this. For door-to-door installation here, you have to ask God to bless you. Come to the door in two or three days?Are you dreaming?Four or five days?In your dreams!a week or two?That's fast, a month?That's normal operation.

Even if you wait for a month, these people come to the door, and suddenly they say that they are missing a tool, sorry, this job will not be able to be done today, as for when it will be done, please wait for the notice.

You have to get used to it. This is the slow pace of the United States. If you ask someone to install something, you happen to meet a white company. Bless you, please wait for you at home for [-] years.

"So, let's buy some materials and make them ourselves," said Old Xu.

"I can't do it alone, Cannon and Brian are both busy now," Zhang Chi said.

Now there are not as many cows in the ranch as before, and the number has doubled. This is not just a matter of quantity, it has brought a lot of problems to the ranch.

It’s okay for cows to eat grass, but cows still shit. If you keep a group of cows in one place for two or three days, the cow dung can cover the grass.

It turned out that Young Master Niu didn't need to pay so much attention to this matter, but now suddenly the number has almost doubled. These cows are grouped together and divided into groups. If they hold down a place and pull.

In less than a month, there will be no grass in Zhangchi Ranch except cow dung.

Even though Guan Jian is a cow, he will not eat grass covered with cow dung. I guess the cow himself would find it disgusting.

"I didn't say to let you be alone, why am I not a human being?" Old Xu said and reached out and tapped his chest.

Zhang Chi wondered, "Are you okay?"

"How long will this thing last for you? It's just a piece of wood. Don't listen to a group of people who are blindly coining coins. There is no technical work in this thing. The so-called craftsman spirit of the group is so nonsense. It's just grinding foreign labor , why do you have to pack it in a wooden box for a few days?"

Old Xu said.

Old Xu sneered at the white labor force here, saying that looking down on it was trivial, and directly contemptuous.

"Go shopping today, take it late, and do it tomorrow morning at most, and the problem will be solved. Listen to me, that's right!"

Old Xu Guo's chest recognized this matter.

"That's fine, I'll trust you," Zhang Chi said.

Zhang Chi had the idea of ​​building a vegetable garden before, but he has always been lazy. If he thinks about it, he is too lazy to do it. Now, he is taking advantage of the big event of Melika's pregnancy to do it directly.

Now that he was ready to do it, he happened to have the help of Lao Xu, so Zhang Chi's confidence increased greatly.

"Let's go buy materials. Oh, wait a minute, I'll talk to Melika," Zhang Chi said.

Old Xu said with a smile: "This is really going to be a father, and I have become a lot more stable."

Zhang Chi smiled, and came to the door of the house and shouted inside: "Melika, I'm going to buy a planting basket."

"go"

"You're going to..." at home.

"roll!"

Melika really can't stand her husband who has been so abnormal for the past two days. She was originally a little tempered, but now she is extremely uncomfortable being treated like this, and her little temper suddenly came out!

Zhang Chi said to Lao Xu with a little embarrassment: "Look, my daughter-in-law has a character!"

puff!

Old Xu couldn't help being happy.

"Be patient, women have bad tempers these days. When I was young, everything was wrong, so what can you do? When you should be a grandson, you have to be a grandson...".

Lao Xu comforted Zhang Chi as he came here.

The two guys got into the pickup truck and went out to have fun.
