Rural life in America

Chapter 268 The Nervous New Dad
It was very fun and relaxing at home during the Spring Festival, but for Zhang Hao, he still had to go back to the ranch.

This time, my parents didn't go with me. It's not that they plan to return to the ranch in a few days, but they decided to basically stay in their hometown for the first half of the year, and go to the ranch when they miss their granddaughter. Zhang Hao and Christina are very happy. I will pass when I am busy.

But in the first half of the year, they mainly stayed in their hometown for a 'holiday'; because they all knew that once Christina was about to give birth in the second half of the year and after Zhang Hao and Christina's children were born, they would basically be on vacation for a long time. Going to stay in the US.

Xixi happily waved goodbye to her grandparents. The little girl didn't know that her grandparents hadn't returned to the ranch for a long time. The little girl thought she would see her grandparents in a few days.

Yu Xiu was very reluctant to part with Xixi. After Xixi was born, she basically never left her. When she thought that she would not see her little granddaughter for a long time, she couldn't help shedding tears.But there is no way, she also wants to be a granddaughter.

"Honey, our next task is getting tougher. The two of us are going to officially enter family life, and we have to take on all the responsibilities."

Hearing what Zhang Hao said, Christina couldn't help reminding Zhang Hao, "Honey, I think you need to pay more attention. It won't affect me too much, but it's very important to you. Big trouble, you're going to start taking on more work, you can't just lie on the couch and slack off every day."

Zhang Hao was taken aback for a moment, but couldn't stop asking, "Why doesn't it have much influence on you? I think this is the work of two people, not just me."

Christina proudly touched her belly and said proudly, "I'm pregnant!"

Well, the pregnant woman won, Zhang Hao has nothing to say!

After a long journey to the United States, Xixi dozed off listlessly on her father's shoulder; the long-distance flight was too tiring for the little girl, and she didn't like to take a long plane now. It's not funny anymore.

Rest in Los Angeles for a day first, not so delicate because of jet lag, but waiting for the flight; although the three members of Zhang Hao’s family really want to go back to the ranch, and they haven’t seen Bawang and Luobo for half a month, they are of course very concerned, but now that When you arrive in Los Angeles, it's normal to visit Barney and Phil as guests.

Barney got a little fatter, and Zhang Hao felt that this good guy who used to look like a handsome guy was "happy and fat". It seemed that the young days after the wedding were really comfortable.Of course, it is also possible, that is, Barney ate some of Monica's nutritional supplements, so he became 'fat'.

Seeing Barney like this, Zhang Hao couldn't help but said, "Barney, you know what I mean. You need to start exercising. God, how long has it been since you got so fat?"

Barney, who was driving, gave Zhang Hao a blank look, and said depressedly, "We haven't seen each other for only a month. Did I gain a lot of weight in this month? I know I've gained some weight recently, but I'm not fat."

Xixi, who was sitting in the back seat, was happy, and the little girl immediately regained her spirits, "Dad, the baby is chubby. Uncle Barney, Xixi is the cutest."

Barney smiled, looked back at Xixi and said, "Yes, sweetheart, you are the cutest, you are the cutest girl I have ever seen, you are my sweetheart."

Seeing Barney's ugly face, Zhang Hao couldn't help complaining, "If your child was a girl, you wouldn't say that."

Barney immediately shot back, "You still think about the most important gift you should give your godson! Phil wanted to be John's godfather, but I rejected it. If you can't be a good godfather, I will clean up you!"

Zhang Hao opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

The "Godfather" Barney mentioned is not the gangsters played by Marlon Brando and Al Pacino. The "Godfather" here refers to giving a Christian name to a baby or young child when they are baptized and guaranteeing to bear their religion. educated people.

To use a Sicilian proverb: the world is too dangerous, and a child must have two fathers. Therefore, when the child reaches a certain age, the father of the child will ask someone with local authority or authority to act as the godfather of the child.

In fact, in layman's terms, this is almost the identity of a godfather.

Zhang Hao is not a Christian, but Barney doesn't care; first take the title, Zhang Hao is his best buddy, naturally Zhang Hao is also qualified to be his son's godfather.

Tucao belongs to Tucao, but Zhang Hao is not at all against this point, in fact, he is very happy to see it.

Barney's new house is not bad, it's a community with good law and order, and the space of the new house is relatively large; Barney now has a little money and a successful career, and he's doing quite well.

Seeing Monica's belly puffed out, Zhang Hao immediately ran over, "Let me see this cute kid, wow, I'm going to be a godfather. I don't know whose idea it is, but I can assure you, If this little guy is disobedient or naughty, I will fix him hard, I can guarantee it."

Monica laughed, touched her belly happily and said, "Barney and I are very confident. We believe that you will not have such an opportunity. John will definitely be the best child."

Seeing the blind self-confidence of Barney and Phil, Zhang Hao didn't bother to say anything, those two guys were too excited now.After knowing that the child is a boy, he became famous, not to mention, he still has a lot of beautiful imaginations; but Zhang Hao can pat his chest and say, even though Barney and Monica are so happy and happy now, they thought Little John was an angel Woolen cloth.

But the reality will hit them mercilessly, because the little angel will also become a little devil, who will severely repair this pair of inexperienced young parents, and make Barney and Monica's head big.

Xixi also ran to join in the fun. She heard that there was a baby in Aunt Monica's belly, who was Xixi's younger brother.So Xixi has doubts, mother has a baby in her womb, and Xixi is going to be an older sister; but, the little guy just can't figure out why all children stay in her mother's womb.
Watching Christina and Monica teasing Xixi and chatting, Zhang Hao and Barney also chatted.

"How is it? Do you feel more and more pressure now?"

Hearing Zhang Hao's question, Barney nodded straightly, and it seemed that he had suffered a lot, "You know, I can't believe it now, I can't believe that I have become what I am now! You know Yes, how much I used to love to play, but now I don't seem to be interested in those previous games at all."

There are many scumbags in the United States, but in some traditional concepts, it’s okay to mess around before marriage, but you must be loyal to your family after marriage.Apparently, that's what Barney is.

Barney continued to complain, and it seemed that he was really under a lot of pressure, "I am under more and more pressure now, I hope to give John the best education, I am afraid that he has some bad friends, I am worried that he is naughty. You know, I've had nightmares several times where he's become what I used to be."

Zhang Hao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and wondered if this was Barney's self-knowledge; he had to admit that Barney was a very good friend, but the former Barney was indeed a bit of a playboy and not doing his job properly.

Patting Barney on the shoulder, Zhang Hao comforted, "Man, everything will be fine. You don't need to worry about this at all. I believe that the child will bring you some troubles as he grows up. I also know that it is difficult for us. Predict your child's future. But, believe me, as long as you do your job well, you will feel happy and happy."

Barney looked at Zhang Hao pitifully, and said without confidence, "Hao, I don't know how to be a good father, can you tell me how to do it?"

Zhang Hao opened his mouth. He thought he was a very good father, and he felt that he would definitely be able to give Barney some good advice.But suddenly, Zhang Hao felt that he couldn't give Barney any reliable advice.

To be honest, Zhang Hao really thought he did a good job; but it must be admitted that Zhang Hao may not be a perfect father.Furthermore, everyone's personality is different, and each child's personality and family environment are also different, so at this time, speaking of one's own experience does not mean that you can pass through the world.

Still patted Barney on the shoulder, Zhang Hao said seriously, "Barney, I don't think you need to worry about this at all. As long as you love him, as long as you can take better care of him, I believe John will know that you are A wonderful father."

Zhang Hao really thinks so. To be an excellent father, maybe you don’t need to look at a "standard answer"; Zhang Hao knows very well that if you want to be an excellent father, the most important thing is to be serious. This is the most important thing. of.

Looking at Barney's worry about gains and losses, Zhang Hao felt that this was normal. He felt that such things were normal, because he used to be like this.

I want to take better care of my children and protect the little ones in every possible way. I have too many ideas, but I always doubt whether I can do my best. Under such circumstances, there will naturally be some worries about gains and losses. up.

"Dude, trust me, you're doing pretty well now. Look at you, at least you don't have to think about work right now, you don't have to worry about money. We both know it's important, John will be better Material basis. So now, you just need to care more about him, about Monica, and I know you can do that."

Let's continue to encourage Barney, this guy is really nervous now, and Zhang Hao still has some confidence in Barney.

While constantly encouraging Barney, Zhang Hao also felt a little nervous; naturally, it was because he would have another child soon, so it was hard not to be nervous.

Be nervous, but Zhang Hao is very confident; maybe he is not the perfect father, but he believes that he can do better!
