Ronald Sr. didn't like children.

When I had a daughter, I didn't like it much.

At that time, I was still young, and I didn't think much of the importance of divorcing Zhang Xiaokai's grandmother, but felt that it was a relief, and I wasted it for a while after the divorce.

This kind of thinking has existed in the old mind for nearly 30 years, until I learned from the police that my ex-wife had passed away for six years, that I had a kind of sigh of vicissitudes and the separation of yin and yang, and suddenly found that it had been so long.

especially learned that his daughter, who had not seen him for 30 years, died in a plane crash, and the white-haired man sent the black-haired man.

At that moment, the heart of old Ronald, which had been silent for a long time, finally felt a sense of pain.

I've never been on a plane in my life, and I don't dare to fly.

The reason why he drove this broken pickup truck alone from the border between Oregon and the east of California to the northeast of Washington State was that he didn't want the daughter who had left him since he was a child not to even have a decent funeral.

For this grandson who has never met and has never even heard the news.

Old Ronald didn't have any sense of concern, if he couldn't find anyone to adopt him, he would be exiled to an orphanage, and he wouldn't pinch his nose to sign the custody confirmation agreement anyway, and now he really hoped that his father would wake up soon, and immediately take the little guy who had never laughed away, and it was best to never contact him again.

For the death of his daughter, he was more or less concerned, although he was very bad and failed, but it did not prevent the old man from putting the fault on the unconscious father Zhang, and he didn't even have a good impression of Zhang Xiaokai, even if it was indeed his own grandson.

He is indeed a hateful old man, perhaps because he has drunk too much alcohol and his head is not very good.

So he has always been a loser in the eyes of others, and even after getting rich by accident, he was treated as a joke, guessing how long it would take to lose all the money.

Examples of poverty after winning the lottery abound in the United States, and judging by the speed of burning money, it should not be far from the arrival of that day.

Since he started on the road, Ronald Sr. has had many times in his mind the idea of throwing Zhang Xiaokai at the gas station, but he still hasn't really implemented it......

Zhang Xiaokai is still digesting the impact of the tragedy.

It's right that he doesn't speak, every time the old man asks him something, he just thinks about it, but his head is fine, and he still thinks about something.

For example, when will the father wake up, for example, when will he be able to return home, and return to a place where he can be at ease, curiosity and disgust are greater than liking about this old man who is full of foul language.

knew that his grandfather was a white man, but he had never heard anything about his grandfather, and Zhang Xiaokai had long thought that his grandfather had already died, so his grandmother lived alone before her death.

A quarter of the mixed race, the Chinese blood is too strong, Zhang Xiaokai has black hair, black eyes, relatively white skin, three-dimensional facial features, especially a pair of eyes, people used to say that he would laugh like a little girl, which is barely a compliment, praise him for his good looks.

Now.

His beautiful eyes were dull, and the marks of frostbite in the wilderness remained on his face, and he didn't know how long it would take to recover, and the doctor prescribed a lot of medicines before he was discharged.

Even if he didn't need the old man to pay, his grandfather still complained about how dark the hospital was, from the police, to the insurance investigator, to the hospital nurse, as long as it was someone who had contact with the old Ronald, it seemed that no one liked the old man, and a cheap mouth could always make people unhappy from the bottom of their hearts.

It's hard to imagine that such a person is actually his grandfather.

If he had a choice, he would be willing to exchange this old man for his parents, and he would not feel distressed at all.

——————————

Cars have long since entered Oregon.

Speaking of which, although it is just north of San Francisco, California, Zhang Xiaokai has never been to it once.

Along the way, the vegetation is dense, the scenery is beautiful, Oregon has a small population, occupies a relatively good geographical location, but the economic ranking is in the middle of the United States, more than the upper than the bottom, and even can't find a well-known city, which belongs to the kind of American continental states with a weak sense of existence.

I can't see the snow anymore, the weather is good today, the sun is shining on my body after a long time, the temperature is above freezing, and it is still quite cold.

Zhang Xiaokai had already slept in the back row, his nose could always smell the fishy smell, and he didn't know what he had pulled before, which made him feel irritable, and his frowning brows rarely let go all the way, only when he was sleeping, he was a little calmer.

The old Ronald was driving at the moment and told: "When you arrive at my house, you will be absolutely shocked! It's not that I'm bragging, I can't find a better house than my house for dozens of kilometers, and it's very big!"

Count yourself lucky, I just spent money to renovate the house, you can live in it directly after you pass, what's so good about the big city, I hate to see the dense crowd the most, begging me to go, I won't go, where do you live in San Francisco? Golden Gate Bridge, or near Golden Gate Park? Shouldn't it be this city, anyway, you all look the same, eat badly and eat the same food...... It's barely a good kung pao chicken, but you can't put too much sugar, and we have it sold in town. ”

After the old man finished speaking, there was silence in the car for a while, Zhang Xiaokai was reluctant to answer his words, since he set off yesterday until now, it has been the same.

Old Ronald, who never knew what the embarrassment was, saw Zhang Xiaokai's rolled eyes through the rearview mirror, and suddenly seemed to be stepped on by the tail, and hurriedly said: "Don't you believe that my family is very big? Hey, didn't I tell you about my ranch and fishing ground?"

You little guy can never imagine that I felt when I won more than 30 million dollars in Powerball! Listen, it was more than 20 million dollars! I just got a few million dollars from the damn IRS and I cheapened them for nothing!"

……

Still no one answered, which made Ronald Sr. feel very hurt and faceless, which is not usually the case when talking to others.

Zhang Xiaokai didn't take it seriously at all, thinking that this broken car had betrayed the old man's lies, and he was thinking about how to escape back to San Francisco and go home after his unconscious father was settled.

Although my family is small, there are too many things in the house that I can't let go, and my tears have long since dried up, and my expression is calm when I think of my parents, but my heart hurts faintly.

Until now, he still hasn't figured out how his parents became what they are now.

He didn't see it with his own eyes, but the nurse told him that his father had amputated his leg because he was crushed by the bucket of the excavator in the cabin, and the big hard guy was placed in the cabin when they boarded the plane, which was originally a farm plane, and was used to pull goods by the way.

From boarding the plane to what happened after he was rescued, it would flash in Zhang Xiaokai's head countless times a day.

I wasn't interested in listening to the old man's bragging, so I was distracted and in a daze.

A few seconds later, something suddenly appeared in his sight, falling out of the truck in front of him, and before he could take a closer look, the old Ronald braked suddenly, and the wheels were lifted, almost overturning.

The frightened old man cursed, opened the door and walked out, quickly picked up something, and carried it into the back of the pickup truck.

Zhang Xiaokai got up and looked through the glass and found that there was a fluffy white guy in the cage, he originally thought it was a dog, but after seeing the round face, he realized that it was not ......
