Little Life on An American Ranch
Chapter 402: courteous
Chapter 402 Courtesy
After sending Zhao Changshan away, Jian Heng returned to the house and was about to kill fish and steam fish. He saw that Ningning and Xiaoan were already sitting on the carpet in the living room, and the bag Zhao Changshan brought next to him had been untied by Kate. , an adult and two children were eating the souvenirs sent by Zhao Changshan.
Jian Henghao went over and found that there were many kinds of things in the bag. In addition to melon seeds, walnuts, and dried bean curd sticks, there were also dried persimmons, raisins, and dried dates.
"Hey, there are so many things." Sun Xiuying came out at this moment, and said in surprise when she saw so many kinds of dry goods in the bag in the living room.
"This person doesn't know if there are so many at home!" Jian Heng smiled and shook his head.
Jian Heng guessed it right. Zhao Changshan’s family did not send many. It can be said that 60 to 70% of them were sent to Jian Heng’s house. Come on, Zhao Changshan's father also knows that his son has been taken care of by someone else's family, and that's why he has his current life.
People of the older generation are very particular, especially those like Zhao Changshan’s parents who have never lived in a big city. The simplicity of Chinese farmers is still reflected in them, so they asked their son to deliver the goods as soon as they received them.
Although tomorrow is the New Year's Eve, according to the customs of their hometown, it is not good to give things tomorrow, not only for others, but also for their own family, so in the morning, the old man took over and asked Zhao Changshan to deliver the things. coming.
"Why don't we give some to others, there are too many things" Sun Xiuying said with a glance.
Sun Xiuying thought to herself that if an old lady came from China to spend the Spring Festival with her sons and grandchildren, how would she bring so many things to her home? It doesn't matter whether it is expensive or not, it is mainly because of her intentions, and she must also Think about it, otherwise it's against the rules.
Jian Heng said: "Mom, don't bother with it, it's so troublesome to send it back and forth, besides, haven't I already sent something."
"You send it back to you. You are the boss, shouldn't you send it? You are thinking about getting something to send to others this afternoon." Sun Xiuying is also such a person. When people send so many things, it seems a bit thin to return gifts from her own family. Not to mention that the walnuts in the country cost tens of catties now, and now there must be at least twenty or thirty catties in the bag.
At this time, the little girl Ning Ning opened her mouth: "I know what Uncle Zhao's family lacks?"
Xiao An rushed to say at this moment: "I know too. A few days ago, I heard from Uncle Zhao that the family is going to buy some piglets!"
Xiaoan felt a little upset when Ning Ning robbed the fish just now, so now when he saw Ning Ning raised his hand, he rushed to tell the story about Zhao Changshan's total purchase of piglets.
Seeing that his nephew had snatched his mouth, Ning Ning immediately glared at Xiao An with his hands on his hips: "Yang Xiaoan!"
Xiao An directly moved her buttocks and turned her face away, and continued to eat the dried dates in her hands with her eyebrows raised.
Ning Ning was very dissatisfied, but still opened his mouth and added: "Uncle Zhao also said that there is a chance to buy it in New York, saying that the pork here is not delicious."
Sun Xiuying asked Jian Heng curiously: "There are no pigs here?"
Jian Heng said: "Zhao Changshan may want to raise native pigs. All the foreign pigs sold around here are big, but the meat is far less fragrant than native pigs!"
"Then you send a few of your piglets to his family. Didn't they just have a litter of piglets not long ago? There are more than a dozen of them." Sun Xiuying immediately said, "Give me two or three little sows." .
Jian Heng had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Returning to the kitchen with their mother, Jian Heng, Jian Zhenhua and his son began to scale and kill the fish, and after marinating the fish for a while, they began to prepare the ingredients for steaming the fish. Put them in a steamer, five fish in one cage, sharing a six-layer cage.
"You two are crazy, what are you doing steaming so many fish?" Sun Xiuying was about to use the steamer, and found that the two had used up half of the steamer, so she complained.
"It's not just for people to eat, instant noodles and Pooh are not allowed to eat! Four or five is enough for a person, and five for Pooh is probably not enough," Jian Zhenhua said.
Jian Heng followed up and said: "That's right, and this fish is delicious, we are afraid that we won't have enough."
Sun Xiuying heard the father and son's nonsense directly: "You two must have made too much material, and then you didn't know what to do, so you steamed so much, right?"
Seeing the embarrassing faces of the father and son, Sun Xiuying knew that she had guessed right, she let out a snort, and then said a prodigal! Then he was busy with the work in his hands.
Jian Heng and Jian Zhenhua stopped staying in the kitchen, turned around and walked out, stood in the living room and took a look, and found that there was no room for them either.
"Would you like to go to my study for a while?" Jian Heng said to his father.
Jian Zhenhua nodded when he heard it: "Okay!"
As soon as the father and son entered the study, they saw that Yang Bin was already sitting in it, made a cup of tea by himself, and was playing games on Jian Heng's computer.
Jian Heng stretched out his head and saw that it was an old FreeCell that couldn't get any older.
"You are really interested. You played this game when you met my sister, and now that Xiao An is running all over the place, you still play this game." Jian Heng made fun of his brother-in-law and said.
Yang Bin said: "Why don't you play something? I'm busy with work every day, so I finally take a break from my busy schedule and don't want to bother playing some mind-wrenching games."
After speaking, Yang Bin turned off the game in his hand, stood up, picked up the cup on the table, and poured water for Jian Zhenhua and Jian Heng.
"Are you still so busy?" Jian Zhenhua took the cup handed over by his son-in-law, put it on the small table next to him, and said casually.
Yang Bin nodded: "Well, it's getting harder and harder to be a civil servant now. I saw what Xiaoheng did here, and I wanted to go back and contract a few acres of land to be a landlord."
Jian Zhenhua immediately persuaded: "Don't be so thoughtful, hold your job well, don't mess it up, how many people are trying to get in but can't get in!"
Yang Bin said with a smile: "Dad, I just complained. It's only a person like me who does business and can be tricked out of his pants."
Yang Bin knew his own temperament, he was really not someone who greeted and sent off, honest people would not take advantage of loopholes, engage in relationships, even civil servants did not do a good job, there was no way to talk about business, it was not that way at all, why bother to go there What's more, even though the family is not rich and powerful now, they are living at ease in a small county town, so why bother to find trouble for themselves.
Jian Heng asked: "Didn't you say that your official will be promoted?"
"It's about to be promoted, the level has already been raised, and now it is the official level, and now it is up to where to go," Yang Bin said.
"It's been so long and it hasn't been done yet?" Jian Heng was surprised.
Yang Bin smiled and said: "One radish and one hole, it's not so easy."
Jian Heng didn't care too much about where Yang Bin was going. It wasn't because he didn't want to help his brother-in-law, or because he was closer to Zheng Huaidong than his own brother-in-law. It's that he understands that his brother-in-law is too honest, so honest that when he becomes an official with real power, he will hold the official handle and offend others at that time.
Jian Zhenhua taught: "Wherever you go, you must do your work well, and you must not have sloppy emotions. Whatever work you do, you must sink your heart, do things with peace of mind, and be a down-to-earth person. You must rush to do things, and young people must be brave. work".
What Jian Zhenhua said was out of his mind, because he himself is such a person, but the consequences, look at his current appearance, when Jian Heng was born, he was a Zhengke, and in the end, not only did he not keep the Zhengke, but he was kicked out After leaving the system, he opened a small shop in front of his house with the little money he had saved to make a living.
If it wasn't for the fact that the new secretary was the son of the old factory manager, he was still an outsider in the system. Even if he had recovered his rank and received a civil servant's pension, it would be considered as merciful for them to think this matter. I didn't want to see each other.
What other people are afraid of is that Jian Zhenhua will come to his door if there is anything to do, so please!
"Well, Dad, you still don't know me?" Yang Bin nodded and said seriously.
Before Jian Zhenhua could say yes, Jian Heng immediately said: "You can pull it down, you will learn from your father, and you will be finished! If you don't talk about the factory in advance, just talk about going to a small agricultural machinery factory. How did my father get crowded? Let's go, you don't know, don't make people look too smart when you sit in the office, it's not a good thing, the most important thing is a muddled word."
Mentioning the last factory, Jian Zhenhua's complexion immediately turned ugly, but he looked at his son and thought of his current situation, he couldn't help but sighed, his face changed from a positive expression to full of disappointment.
Yang Bin also knew what was going on. In the past, Jian Zhenhua was promoted to the deputy factory director in the agricultural machinery factory. Several factory managers had nothing to do and hid in the office to play cards every day. He didn't like gambling very much, so he shirked it and watched from the side. Playing, pouring water or something for a few people on stage from time to time, and sometimes buying a pack of cigarettes.
It stands to reason that the relationship between these people should be good, but whenever someone comes to do something, others are too busy to get away, so Jian Zhenhua goes to do it for him. After a long time, everyone who wants to do something will go to Jian Zhenhua directly up.
Now several other factory directors and secretaries and deputy factory directors were not happy, and they directly buckled a hat that they couldn’t get along with their colleagues and squeezed them into the electronics factory as workshop directors. Fortunately, there was a good factory director who was promoted to Zheng Ke However, after the death of the old factory manager, Jian Zhenhua didn't know much about it, so Jian Heng's side ran away in anger when he was young.
"The good things are ruined by these people!" Jian Zhenhua really couldn't come up with any good reason to refute his son, so he had to blame all the current officials for their cunning.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
"time to eat!"
At this moment, Xiao An knocked on the door of the house and told everyone to eat, which relieved Jian Zhenhua from embarrassment.
