Rural life in America

Chapter 119
Xixi happily sat on the small bench, eating snacks and looking at the passers-by at the door; Xixi who returned to her hometown was very comfortable, because she could see a lot of things that felt relatively fresh.

Naturally, Zhang Hao and Christina were also nearby, looking at Xixi was the same thing, and they were also chatting.

"This is just an ordinary town. I won't praise my hometown too much. It's just a relatively ordinary town. It's not very rich, but it's not very poor either. I think you will be a little surprised, In the United States, I have seen a lot of introductions to China, and I am still stuck in a very poor era."

Christina nodded and said, "This is the most complicated place. Some media will tell us that China is very rich now, and there are a lot of rich people. But some of the scenes we often see are captured by reporters and TV stations. The poor side. So, I thought it would be interesting."

It's really interesting. On the one hand, they complain that China is getting richer and more dangerous, and on the other hand, they look down on China's "poor".

Yu Xiu came out of the kitchen with the phone, and said to Zhang Hao, "We'll go to your aunt's house tomorrow, and she's back."

Zhang Hao let out an 'oh', and was quite looking forward to going to his aunt's house.

I originally planned to visit more relatives after returning to China, but the reality is that it has not been realized; because several relatives who travel more frequently seem to be in a bit of a situation, and we have to wait for a few days.

Zhang Hao's father has three brothers and sisters, and the uncle's family has a relatively ordinary relationship; but the sister-in-law's house, the sister-in-law's family is now helping the cousin with the children, in Hangzhou.My mother has four brothers and sisters, but my brother-in-law’s house basically doesn’t move around very much; my aunt and my mother are very close, even the closest of all relatives, but my aunt is also helping my cousin with the children.

In fact, the relatives of Zhang Hao's family don't have any excellent relatives. For example, the relationship between father and uncle is not close, that's because uncle and father are half-brothers.As for my brother-in-law not moving around, it is because my brother-in-law is a little afraid of guilt and basically doesn't remember his brothers and sisters.

As for the aunt’s family, I have nothing to say, the aunt’s family actually has nothing to say to Zhang Hao’s family; the eldest cousin is a contractor, and the younger cousin went to work in a domestic home appliance brand giant-level company after graduating from graduate school, because he went there earlier , now it is not an executive, but it can be regarded as a middle-level leader. Zhang Lei's job was arranged by him.

When Zhang Hao was studying abroad, his two cousins ​​borrowed money, and they didn’t help until they became rich. In the past, when Zhang Hao’s parents were farming at home, they were busy because of the busy farming season. As long as the aunt’s family was busy, they would definitely come to help Zhang Hao’s family.

As for Zhang Hao, the little cousin, although he is not very close to his older cousin, who is 12 years old and nine years older than him, but to be honest, the aunt's family really has nothing to say to Zhang Hao's family.

Christina has been listening, and listening to Zhang Hao explaining these relatives in the family, she gradually understands.

"Auntie will give you the red envelope tomorrow, just accept it, don't refuse. This is a meeting gift, and I will definitely give it to you."

Christina already understood the meaning of the greeting gift, because Zhang Hao's uncle gave it to her, and she didn't care about the amount of money, "Well, will Xixi have it? She likes red envelopes very much, although she doesn't know the function of these red envelopes. .”

Zhang Hao replied without thinking, "Xixi will definitely be there, she hasn't seen her aunt yet. I will pass by tomorrow, and I think my aunt will definitely scold me. I have to prepare myself mentally. Nian likes to give ideological education classes to people. If I go to my uncle's house, a political class will definitely be indispensable."

Seeing Zhang Hao's worried look, Christina seemed to understand.

It's perfectly normal to have such worries. Sometimes it's not enough for the elders to see how much money you earn. They often care about how many worrying things these younger generations have caused.

Obviously, Zhang Hao has made the elders worry a lot, so an ideological education class must be indispensable; what Zhang Hao knows very well is that the uncle has always liked to teach people, and the aunt has also had this trend in recent years.

The key is to listen. Although my aunt has basically never read a book, she understands the truth!

It is estimated that a profound ideological education class must be indispensable, but Zhang Hao didn't feel that there was anything to be afraid of; he just stood there and listened. .

After eating, Zhang Hao was busy bragging with a few of his childhood playmates. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and these young people who work outside and part-time jobs have gradually come back, and now there are more people bragging.

Chatting and chatting, it turned into planning to go to the bathhouse to take a bath together; it was quite enjoyable, although there was a water heater at home, but Zhang Hao was not at all against going to the bathhouse to take a bath, and quite enjoyed it.

Isn't it just bragging, what's the point!
"I just got up this year. I used to be miserable. I didn't have the travel expenses to come back during the Chinese New Year. Now I bought a small ranch and raised cattle and horses. It's not worth the money. It's definitely enough to take care of food and clothing. .”

Soaking in the bathtub and boasting, Zhang Hao is relatively low-key, there is no need to show off his wealth, it is boring.

But some people don't believe Zhang Hao's words. Although what Zhang Hao said may be more realistic, it is just not credible.

"You are too low-key. Your dad is driving a Mercedes-Benz now. If you go on the road, it must cost 150 million? Listen to my mother, your mother is driving a BMW 750 over there. Your car is a Hummer. That car How is it going?"

Hearing this, Zhang Hao didn't even think about it. It must be the result of his mother going out to show off; this is a hobby of his mother, and there is no harm in showing off his son, especially in the past two years. , Zhang Hao is obviously a typical example of incompetence, now it is time to help Zhang Hao rectify his name.

Zhang Hao smiled and said, "I haven't got the Hummer yet, I placed the order before I came back. I haven't driven that car much, I don't know, but I like it anyway."

The fat man who was about two hundred catties asked again, "Is it really cheaper to buy a car in the United States? I heard from your mother that the car there is not as expensive as ours. She said that you can buy a Ferrari for the price of your Mercedes-Benz. Now, you have two friends who drive supercars, right?"

Zhang Hao nodded and said, "There are no tariffs, and it is indeed cheaper. Driving a sports car is not suitable for me. I don't particularly like racing cars. I like square or aggressive cars. I have long wanted to buy a Hummer. I don't agree very much."

Let's brag together, take a good bath, and then go home.

After returning home, Zhang Hao was stunned. He saw Yoyo and Xixi happily rolling on the bed, and the two younger sisters playing very intimately.Xixi is too young to do somersaults now. Although she is always working hard, at most she can only see the little girl kicking her short, fleshy legs, and she still needs someone to push her.

Yoyo is different. This little girl has the ability to do somersaults. Naturally, Xixi is quite envious of doing somersaults again and again, and she is also studying hard.

"What's the matter, why did these two little things run together?"

Yu Xiu, who was playing with the children, said, "Xixi is arguing to play with my sister. I will take the two little ones away later, and I will take them with me at night."

Zhang Hao thinks this is no problem, Xixi must like to play games with her sister very much.Although the little girl can actually sleep independently now, if someone goes crazy with her, then the little girl will definitely be happier; these few days at home, the little girl is very happy, and can sleep with her parents.

The fussy children were carried away, so naturally it was a lot easier; Zhang Hao laughed, and Christina also gave Zhang Hao a charming white look, which goes without saying.

Zhang Hao even felt that this might be because his mother was helping to create the conditions. Although he now has two lovely granddaughters, Yu Xiu might still be a little dissatisfied.It would definitely be better if you could have a big fat grandson, which requires creating more opportunities.

It was a sweet night, but after the sweet night, Zhang Hao began to feel a little worried; he was going to his aunt's house, and Zhang Hao was ready to be criticized and educated, which he guessed would be indispensable.

I simply brought some gifts, which must be indispensable, and then drove to my aunt's house; after a ten-minute drive, I had to sigh that having a car was a lot more convenient, so I drove directly to the door of my aunt's house.

Zhang Hao, who was holding Xixi in his arms, yelled as soon as he entered the door, "Auntie, Uncle, I'm here."

The aunt who came out of the room came out quickly, and ran over as soon as she saw Zhang Hao, cursing as she ran, "You knew you would come! Tell me how ignorant you are, and you want to make your father and mother worry about it." When will it be!"

While talking, he patted Zhang Hao's arm with his hand, which was a bit of love and hatred.

Zhang Hao bared his teeth, not because of the pain from his aunt's beating, but because he knew that he would definitely not be able to escape this test; Zhang Hao didn't care, but someone cared, such as Xixi.

The little girl burst into tears, pushed her aunt and grandma with her hands, and shouted while crying, "Don't hit daddy, don't hit daddy!"

Zhang Hao became complacent, and Xixi really protected him the most; and seeing this cute little guy crying, Zhang Hao's aunt was naturally embarrassed to continue to teach Zhang Hao.

He began to comfort Xixi, "Xixi, my aunt and grandma didn't hit Dad, they didn't."

The little girl was very aggrieved, with one arm around her father's neck, and the other small hand pushed her aunt. The little girl held a grudge very much, "I won't hit my father, I won't hit my father."

Needless to say, Zhang Hao is quite proud now, many children will do this, and some adults will deliberately tease the children, deliberately pretending to 'beat' the parents of the children, this will definitely make the children riot.

But now, Xixi's performance made Zhang Hao very happy. The child Xixi really cared about him and knew how to protect his father!
It really is a sweetheart little padded jacket, nothing to say!
