Chapter 84

After everyone else went to the table, Mary called George who was about to leave.

"George, have you noticed that something is wrong with Shelly these two days?" Mary said worriedly.

"There's something wrong, he's not always like that. It's weird..." George responded indifferently.

All he wanted now was to quickly go to the dining table and take a sip of cold beer.

Because of his health, George was only allowed to drink a little beer on weekends.This is also the time he looks forward to the most during the week.

Seeing her husband's distracted look, Mary's expression became serious: "George, because of the team's affairs recently, you have paid less attention to Shelly. You must pay attention to it."

Under the same circumstances, Missy was also "snubbed" during this period, but Mary couldn't feel it at all.It was obvious that she had a serious preference for her smart little son.

From this aspect, George did better. He treated his three children equally.

At this moment, George, who just wanted to drink beer quickly, was in no mood to argue with his wife.So, he said perfunctorily: "Okay, okay, I will take the time to talk to Shelly and see what the problem is with him."

With her husband's promise, Mary's mood seemed much better.She continued: "There's one more thing I want to tell you. I'm going to work in the church this weekend, and the task of taking care of Shelly will be left to you. You have to remember that Shelly can't eat cold food, it will make him feel uncomfortable. ..."

Next, as if she was explaining a major event, Mary summarized a set of standards for George in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation for young Sheldon.

Listening to his wife's nagging, George rolled his eyes.To be honest, he really didn't want to be alone with little Sheldon, which meant endless troubles to him.

Immediately, George had an idea and suggested, "Maybe we can let Connie take care of Shelly. You know, she likes Shelly very much."

Mary thought for a while, and vetoed: "No, Mom has her own life, we can't be so selfish."

In fact, Mary knew that her mother's weekend life was a bit rich and unhealthy, and she was afraid that the other party would lead Shirley to ruin.

Seeing that he couldn't shirk the task of taking care of little Sheldon, George could only agree: "Okay, I'll ask Shelly later what he wants to do on the weekend."

On the way to the dinner table, George's face fell completely.He could already foresee that he would be bored this weekend.

The family sat down at the dining table and began to pray before meals as usual.

Then when the meal started, George opened a bottle of beer for himself and took a comfortable sip.Then, he looked at his youngest son: "Shelly, how about going fishing with me on the weekend? We haven't gone fishing in the wild for a long time."

George tried to use a pre-emptive approach to seize a little initiative.

Of course, the proposal of wild fishing is also very good. Not only can you enjoy the natural scenery, but it is also very relaxing.

What George didn't expect was that little Sheldon hated being close to nature.

The experience of being chased by bees all over the mountain during the last church picnic left a serious psychological shadow on him.

Moreover, Little Sheldon doesn't like small animals, including slimy fish.

So, he decisively refused: "No, I don't want to go fishing in the wild. I would rather be at home..." At this point, little Sheldon suddenly remembered the Houston Science and Technology Exhibition that Libby had mentioned.

Little Sheldon, who is very interested in this aspect, also learned about the science and technology exhibition held in Houston, which will be held on Sunday morning.

"Maybe we can go to Houston to watch a technology exhibition." Little Sheldon changed the subject in time, with a look of expectation on his face.

The thought of driving to Houston troubled George.But under the scrutiny of his wife, he reluctantly agreed: "Okay, this weekend, we will go to Houston."

"Houston? I'm going too." Little George, who was grabbing a chicken chop and eating a greasy mouth, echoed.

Houston is the largest city in Southern California and the most prosperous region in Texas.

Little George had long wanted to see him.

Before George could react, Missy, who was drinking soup at the table, threw down the spoon and booed, "I'm going too, I'm going too~"

Then, the little girl took Mike's arm beside her and acted like a baby: "Mike, let's go together, shall we?"

It didn't matter where she went, the little girl just wanted to spend the weekend with Mike.

At this time, Grandma Connie saw the troubled look on George's face. It was really not easy for one person to take care of such a large family of children.

So, Grandma Connie suggested: "Why don't you guys form a team and go to Houston. I'll take Missy with me to do something we girls should do."

Seeing that Mike was hesitant, Grandma Connie persuaded him: "Mike, you have been in the small town of Telford City for a while, so you should go out for a walk and relax."

As for Mike, he just rejected Regina's weekend invitation not long ago. It can be predicted that this weekend, the "Queen Bee" will gather the members of the Devil's Body Group again for some meaningless group activities.

Therefore, Karen, a member of the devil figure group, will definitely not be able to get out this weekend.

As far as Mike knows, Lina's farm is also very busy this weekend.As the daughter of a farmer, she might not be able to spare the time.

Thinking of this, Mike also felt that it was a good idea to go out for a walk.

So, he nodded, agreeing to Grandma Connie's arrangement.

Then, grandma Connie persuaded Missy who was pouting at the side: "Missy, grandma can take you to the amusement park tomorrow, and we can go to the beauty salon for maintenance after that. Grandma will take our little one Princess, dress up beautifully..."

Although Missy was a little moved when she heard Grandma Connie's suggestion, she still turned her face aside to express her dissatisfaction.

Obviously, these temptations were not enough to offset the little girl's determination to stay with Mike.

"Unlimited supply of ice cream~" Grandma Connie smiled and increased her bet again.

"Really?" Missy's eyes sparkled when she heard the ice cream.Then, she put on a straight face on purpose to make herself look less happy.The little adult said in the same way: "In this case, I will forcefully spend a day with you tomorrow, grandma."

During one dinner, Grandma Connie arranged the family's weekend itinerary on her own.

What's even more rare is that the whole family is very satisfied with this arrangement.

Especially George, he very much agrees with Mike's proposal to travel together, which will make him a lot easier along the way.

After dinner, when Mike was about to leave with Grandma Connie, Missy stopped him and said expectantly: "Mike, when you come back from Houston, don't forget my gift."

Yes, the whole family already knew about George Jr. passing the math test.

Moreover, George also fulfilled his promise and gave little George a football for the game.

As for the promise to Little Sheldon and Mike, George also said that he will fulfill it before the end of this weekend.

"I won't forget, I will bring you back Ashe." Mike promised with a smile.

Amid the happy cheers of the little girl, Mike followed Grandma Connie's footsteps and went to the house opposite.
