Mixed in the last days as a salted fish
Chapter 20
Chapter 20
When Zhang Hao returned to Laoshan.
At the same time, across the ocean.
Zhang Chongxin and others finally arrived in Rolleston, Wyoming, Russia, a small town with a population of only tens of thousands of people, who mainly make a living from farming and animal husbandry.
Zhang Jiayi's family's farm is located here.
Here is one more thing, the reason why the group was delayed for such a long time was really helpless. Not long after they got off the plane, an earthquake with a magnitude of 5.8 occurred in the local area.
The shock is quite obvious!
In the end, due to poor traffic and safety considerations, under Zhang Chongxin's strong insistence, the family was forced to stay in the hotel for two days.
Zhang Jiayi also came to pick her up this morning.
Back at her ranch, she carried her little nephew out of the car: "Little Pudding, this is the second aunt's house. The second aunt's house has a pony, do you want to ride it?"
"I think." Little Pudding clapped his hands excitedly.
"Second aunt, I want to ride a horse too."
Big Pudding followed suit.
The little guy was afraid that Second Aunt would forget him.
Zhang Jiayi patted her eldest nephew's head with pity: "Don't worry, the second aunt's house has plenty of horses, I guarantee you and your brother will ride until you vomit."
"Thank you, Second Aunt."
"Second aunt, I like you so much."
The pudding brothers are very close to the second aunt.
It may be that they have no relationship with their mother since they were young. The twins seem to be very dependent on the female elders in the family. Even Zhang Jiayi, the second aunt who has never met a few times, is no exception.
After Zhang Chongxin got out of the car, he couldn't stop complaining: "What the hell, let alone the earthquake, the road is still so broken..."
"Old man, don't say a few words."
Li Dajuan secretly pulled the old man's arm.
"Dad, if you're not used to it, I'll take you directly to the airport tomorrow."
Zhang Jiayi herself has a pungent personality, and there are conflicts between father and daughter, so she will not spoil her father at all.
"Eh?" Zhang Chongxin was speechless for a while, and finally he could only defend in a low voice: "I didn't say anything, it's really too desolate here, why not move back to Laoshan!"
"Moving back? We don't want our farm anymore? Can Laoshan buy such a big farm?"
Zhang Jiayi suddenly lost her temper.
After her painstaking efforts, their family currently owns a total of more than 5000 acres of land, which is about [-] acres in conversion, and it is considered one of the best large farms in the local area.
Zhang Chongxin is not fooling around blindly. He naturally has his reasons for saying this: "Nowadays, the economy is in a recession, consumption is sluggish, and food production is surplus every year. I read on the news that last year alone, your side closed down more than 20 Wanjia Farm is simply shocking."
"Don't worry, we can survive. Those bankrupt farms are all small farms. Their own ability to resist risks is weak, and they cannot be compared with our family."
"Don't be stubborn, I still think it's better to change careers as soon as possible. Now that the world's population is decreasing year by year, traditional industries will only become more and more difficult."
Although my second daughter is very capable, but the environment is such that it is not human.
"I have found a new profit point, you don't have to worry."
Zhang Jiayi saw that her father was really thinking of herself and not just to see a joke, so she subconsciously slowed down her tone.
Zhang Jiaqi on the side couldn't help but wondered: "Second sister, what good idea have you thought of?"
Zhang Jiayi led the crowd and answered while walking:
"Traveling, our side is very close to Sulfur Rock Park, only about a hundred kilometers away. I plan to set up a homestay, focusing on attracting us Orientals to come to travel. It should be very interesting."
"Tourism is too uncertain, and you can't make a fortune by relying on it."
Zhang Chongxin's tone was very firm.
"I didn't expect to make a fortune from this. The main purpose is to reduce the financial pressure. The main business is still growing wheat and soybeans. This has not changed."
Zhang Jiayi patiently explained.
Zhang Chongxin originally wanted to persuade him a few more words, but was stopped by Li Dajuan. Following the other party's line of sight, it turned out that his mother-in-law, Lisa, had come over.
"Zhang, Li, I've been looking forward to your coming. Since knowing that you are coming, Jiayi is very happy, and has prepared a lot of delicious dishes in advance."
The old lady speaks Mandarin fluently.
"Oh, in fact, we should have come here earlier, but Lao Zhang is busy with work, and there are these two little ancestors at home, so we can't do without people."
Li Dajuan hurriedly said politely.
Speaking of which, this is their first visit to the house.
Because of the temper tantrum between father and daughter, the second daughter didn't notify the family even if she got married. Later, the son came to visit relatives and learned the truth.
At that time, she was so angry that she didn't eat a good meal for half a month.
Zhang Chongxin sighed, and at the critical moment, he finally let go of his face:
"Actually, it's all my fault, I did something wrong..."
"Dad, stop talking. Let the past go. I'm doing well now. You don't have to worry about me."
Zhang Jiayi immediately interrupted.
She was actually at fault for what happened back then.
After leaving home for so many years, it must be a lie to say that she has no regrets, but fortunately, she is lucky, married a good husband, has a good love career, and gave birth to two sons and a daughter, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise!
Li Dajuan quickly interrupted: "Okay, stop talking, let's go into the house quickly! By the way, why didn't you see Steven? Isn't he at home?"
Steven is her second son-in-law.
He is a well-known writer.
"There's a signing event in the Big Apple, and I'll be back in two days."
Lisa replied with a smile.
Then I went to the kitchen to make coffee.
After entering the house, Li Dajuan looked around:
"Where are Kevin and the others? Are they not at home?"
Zhang Jiayi replied casually: "The three of them have gone to school. Today is Sunday. Our side is closed on Friday and Saturday. It would be great if you came here yesterday."
"Don't worry, it's rare that your brother is willing to take over. Your father and I plan to stay with you for a while."
"Really?"
"Second sister, of course it's true. If parents don't come out for a walk, they won't be able to walk if they want to."
"Oh, that's right." Zhang Jiayi helped her nephews get a large box of cakes prepared in advance, and then said with emotion: "I really didn't expect that Xiao Hao would go to work honestly."
"Your brother is sensible now. Didn't he tell you before that he made a bet with your dad and went to the company's warehouse as an intern for a month? The guy lost a lot of weight. Your dad is hard-hearted. I don’t know how to feel sorry for anyone.”
Li Dajuan couldn't help nagging.
Zhang Chongxin snorted coldly: "What's so distressing? He's not a child, what's wrong with suffering a little? It's because we spoiled him since we were young, but we couldn't stand any setbacks. We have wasted so many years in vain."
"Okay, what you say is what you say, every time I talk to you, it is full of great truth."
After Li Dajuan finished speaking, she took her two daughters and went upstairs together with the suitcase.
Little Pudding was also carried away.
Only Zhang Chongxin and Big Pudding were left in the living room, and the grandfather and grandson were staring at each other.
"Grandpa, this jerky is delicious."
Big Pudding grabbed a handful of beef jerky and stuffed it into Grandpa's hand with a look of anticipation.
"It's so cute!"
Zhang Chongxin took a symbolic sip.
This stuff is too hard for old people to eat.
