American TV series: Start with the little Sheldon's wool

Chapter 326 Family Conflict
"Think again, did you accidentally offend Mary~"

As the head of the family, Grandma Connie is still prepared to shed some light on the relationship between Mr. and Mrs. George.

"Could such a thing happen? I really can't think of it." George, who had been focusing on the team invitational tournament recently, really couldn't figure out how he could offend his wife.

"Is that so?" Grandma Connie saw that George didn't look like he was lying, so she asked from a different angle: "Then when was the last time you and your wife were intimate?"

For old couples, the harmony of sexual intercourse can well reflect the relationship between the couple.

"This..." George felt awkward talking to Grandma Connie about such an intimate topic.

But now that it has been said here, George, who is dissatisfied with the relationship between husband and wife, took this opportunity to confide: "It has been more than a month. Mary seems to be very resistant to that kind of thing recently..."

As a normal male, although George has reached middle age, he still has needs in that regard occasionally.

As for his wife's uncooperativeness, while it was difficult for him to express it, he would inevitably feel unhappy in his heart.

"Could it be that menopause has arrived..." Grandma Connie came to the conclusion and persuaded: "When a woman goes through menopause, her temper will indeed become weird. You have to learn to tolerate her..."

Menopause? George was a little unsure.

As a husband, George is actually somewhat guessing about his wife's emotional changes.

It should be noted here that more than a month ago, Mary's position in the church was upgraded to that of a priest.

Has the right to baptize people and preach.

It can be said that Mary’s “career” took on a second spring from that moment on.

Of course, from that time on, Mary became more and more busy at work in the church, and her care for her family and husband became more and more perfunctory.

Until now, it has developed into being picky about her husband.

Although George had some guesses, he couldn't say it clearly out of respect for his wife.

Back in the living room, just when Grandma Connie was trying to persuade George to be more generous, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

"Brenda, what's the matter?" George opened the door and looked at the person who came and asked.

"Sorry to bother you at this time." Brenda, with messy hair and some water stains on her body, looked very embarrassed: "The water pipe in my kitchen is broken again. If it's convenient, can you help me go check it out? ."

Since her husband left, life has become difficult for Brenda, a single mother.

Therefore, within his ability, George would often go over and help out with some small favors.

……

In Brenda's kitchen, kitchen utensils and ingredients were scattered all over the floor. Apparently, this single mother was preparing dinner for herself and her secretary son.

Because there was a sudden problem with the water pipe, she was a little overwhelmed and knocked over a lot of things in her panic.

Sure enough, having a man in the family is very important.

After George arrived, he first checked the leakage area, then picked up the repair tools, and soon repaired the water outlet pipe under the sink.

"It's not a big problem, it's just that the water pipe is old. If you have time, you can buy a new water pipe, and I'll come back and replace it for you..."

After packing up the tools, George stepped aside and continued: "Come and take a look. If there is no problem, I will go back."

"Thank you so much." Brenda, who had a tough personality, rarely showed warmth. She took out a dry towel and wiped the water stains on George's head, and said: "As a thank you, I'll treat you to dinner. How about it?"

Repairing water pipes, changing light bulbs, and tightening screws, George really helped Brenda a lot during this time.

Feeling the warmth, Brenda became emotional at this moment.

On the other side, because of the angle, George raised his head and met the woman's gentle gaze.

When their eyes met, the atmosphere became weird.

"Mom, how long until dinner is ready? I'm almost starving~" Billy's voice in the living room interrupted the ambiguous atmosphere in the kitchen.

Billy, who is in the same grade as Missy, has a low IQ and EQ, and looks silly.

Having to take care of such a son shows how difficult Brenda's life is.

"Mary should have prepared dinner, I should go back..." In the kitchen, George, who was interrupted, turned and walked out after avoiding the woman's burning gaze.

……

At the door of Cooper's house, Mike, who had returned from Mia, saw George hesitating at the door. "Coach George, what are you doing? Why don't you go in?" Mike greeted.

"No, it's nothing..." Father George, who was thinking about something, suddenly heard Mike's voice and was startled.

Then he reacted, thinking of the troubles at home, and asked tentatively: "Mike, what do you think..."

He originally wanted to ask Mike if there was any way to improve the relationship between husband and wife.

But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he realized: Although Mike was smart, he was still a child after all. It's not appropriate to ask him that kind of emotional question.

"What do you think?" Seeing that the other party didn't say anything for a long time, Mike took the initiative to ask.

At this time, he also noticed that there was something wrong with George's expression now.

"Nothing, let's go in. Mary and the others should be waiting for us to start dinner." Father George smiled and didn't mention what happened before.

At this time, everyone in the Cooper restaurant was here except Mike and Father George.

"Mike, George, you are finally back. Come and sit down quickly." Grandma Connie greeted the two people who walked in.

George felt a little guilty and went to sit down next to his wife. Looking at the table full of sumptuous food and the family members sitting around the table, he suddenly felt guilty in his heart.

There had been a moment earlier at Brenda's house when he had admitted that his heart had moved.

But at this moment, he felt the happiness of his family again, and he was glad that he had kept the bottom line before.

"Little George, why are you free to bring Mandy back for dinner today? Isn't the game room busy?" Grandma Connie asked with interest after praying before the meal.

In the past two months or so, the business at the game arcade has been getting better and better. Little George, who was too busy, hadn't brought Mandy back to have dinner with his family for a long time.

"When I come back this time, I have two things I want to discuss with you..." Little George said: "The first thing is, I want Mandy to move back into the house."

Now, the child in Mandy's belly is already five months old, and it is very obvious that she is pregnant. As her mobility became increasingly inconvenient, she needed someone to take care of her.

"No problem, Shelly can vacate the room." Mary agreed to Little George's request.

She is about to be upgraded to mother-in-law, and she does have the obligation to take care of her pregnant "daughter-in-law".

"The second thing is that I want to expand the size of the game hall and let you know in advance." Little George said his plan.

It is said to be a discussion, but in fact it is a notification.

It is precisely because he will be busy with the expansion of the game hall in the future that little George is eager to entrust the care of his girlfriend to his family.

"Expansion? Are you serious~" Grandma Connie asked in surprise.

Both George and his wife also set their sights on their eldest son.

In fact, according to Mike's previous analysis, the Cooper family is almost not optimistic about the business of Little George Game Center.

"Of course, I discussed it with Mandy. We decided to introduce fifty more high-end game consoles." At this point, little George felt like he was pointing the way.

A high-end game console costs at least 2,000 yuan, and fifty units cost 100,000 yuan. This is not a small sum.

Little George made a big splash this time.

"Fifty units? Where did you get so much money?" Grandma Connie asked.

"I have made some money in the past two months, plus Mandy also invested part of it. The total should be almost enough to buy a new machine." Little George said proudly: "Besides, I have contacted a reliable contact. I can get the latest game console at a low price. This time, I’m going to be prosperous.”

After little George's talk, Grandma Connie and Mr. and Mrs. George were a little moved.

In their opinion, making money is a good thing.

"Little George, I think you still need to think about it. With all that money, you might as well buy a house first." Based on reality, Mike gave a pertinent opinion.

The wedding date scheduled for Little George and Mandy is only a few months away. Before the two get married, it's time to put the house on the agenda.

Moreover, there is a saying: consider defeat before victory.

Over at the game arcade, little George could just do his own thing. He actually invested the private money that Louis had left for his daughter to raise her child.

This is really not considered.
