Chapter 198: You're Playing Old Mother
"Why are you again?"
In the villa on the bank of the Potomac River, when Gu Wei heard the electric bell to open the door, he saw Ye Su standing in the snow and was slightly startled.
They had already had two drinks and talked for a while at luncheon.
Ye Kun was angry in his heart when he heard this, and he didn't explain, so he raised his foot and turned around.
Gu Wei hurriedly took off his windbreaker and hurried up a few steps to put it on Ye Kun: "You know that I didn't let you come, after all, we are still good comrades-in-arms." I'm afraid that on such a cold day, you don't have a car...... Or I'll give you a car, anyway, you know, money isn't a thing to me. ”
"Who is rare about your car!" Ye Su shook his hand and pushed Gu Wei's windbreaker away, but he also forgave his first reaction just now, "Even if you still have a little conscience, this is a domestic report about you." ”
Ye Kun said, slapped the fax paper on Gu Biao's chest with one palm, and knocked Gu Biao back slightly.
But he still has to say thank you.
"Thank you so much. Let's go in and say, it's cold outside. ”
Because there was a lot of food at the luncheon, and it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon when the banquet was over, Gu Biao and Ye Kun didn't eat dinner. Now I stayed up until ninety o'clock in the evening, and I felt slightly hungry.
After entering the house, Ye Kun saw that the kitchen was actually steaming, and realized that Gu Biao was cooking supper.
"I didn't expect you to live by yourself as a big man, and you actually cook supper. Wasn't it because it was on fire just now, so I was impatient? Ye Su complained while secretly giving Gu Biao a step down.
She knows that her temper always wants to "guide the country" to Gu Biao's life, and she is a bit strong. Therefore, it is inevitable that Gu Biao will still keep a distance from her in terms of friendship.
But she doesn't want to change it, so be it, because she always feels very wronged, and feels that every time she is suspicious or persuasive, the starting point is for the good of the other party.
Even if the other party doesn't actually need it, or it is possible to do bad things with good intentions, can't a big man let a girl order!
Of course, Gu Biao knew that the other party was giving the steps, so he took the opportunity to go down: "What about cooking dumplings, you made them yourself, do you want to have some?"
Ye Kun walked to the side of the pot, lifted the lid and looked at it, and couldn't help but complain again: "You also call dumplings? The skin is square, and the wontons are not like wontons, do you grab them when you wrap them?"
Gu Biao shrugged: "In Watsonton, there are no dumpling wrappers and quick-frozen dumplings for sale, I still saw them in Walmart when I was in California." I don't have time to roll them out one by one, so I just roll out the big ones and cut them out. If you don't like it, forget it, or have a convenient pizza in the fridge. ”
"Where can anyone eat pizza in Chinese New Year's Eve, forget it, just make it unpalatable." Ye Su added ice water again, skimmed off the foam on the soup, and then served two bowls.
Of course, she made two other bowls of cold soup with ice water to shrink the ripe dumplings and sprinkle some coriander.
The little chat opportunity at the luncheon is all about the scene and work, and this moment is a private relationship.
When Gu Wei first came to the United States, Ye Kun didn't know. After she found out, she caught up with Gu Biao being monitored, and she didn't dare to say many things.
So it wasn't until now that a whole month has passed, dust has returned to dust, and after Ye Kun has calmed down, everyone has a chance to say something honest that is not concealed.
It's just that she still doesn't know Gu Biao's plan to "take a temporary leave of absence for a year and go back to work" halfway, and she always thought that Gu Biao would go directly to graduate with a doctorate and then return to China.
It is possible that he will not return to China, after all, he has seen more of the world of flowers.
When she thought of this possibility, she couldn't help but feel a little proud in her heart, and she felt pity for the "female hooligan who had exhausted all her organs" - she thought she had caught a god-level golden beetle son-in-law, but what happened?
Even if that female hooligan studied at Fudan Academy of Literature and graduated in two years, she would not have the opportunity to come to the United States. Unless he waits for four or five years, Gu Biao is 22~23 years old, reaching the legal age of male marriage, and still insists on marrying Xiao Sui as his wife.
In the first half of the 80s, it was so difficult for Chinese to get foreign residency. Although Xiao Sui has followed Gu Biao to the United States twice, it is just a tourist visa, which is not the same as long-term residence.
"If Gu Biao is willing to guard you in a different place for four years, I will believe that he has really fallen into your evil and loves you to death!"
Thinking about it, Ye Kun's bite on the dumplings was inevitably a little stronger, as if he had a grudge against the dumplings.
"Are your teeth uncomfortable?" asked Gu Biao with concern.
"What! Ye Su wiped his mouth with a napkin and asked with a smile, "What are your plans for the future?" Kissinger should have brought you here because of the original motive for this incident. When that's done, he shouldn't care about you anymore?"
Gu Biao told the truth: "I plan to go to California in the near future - the movies I invested in have been on for more than two months, and I haven't had time to see them in person, and I'm a little worried about Cameron's blind toss."
And my video game console, which has been officially sold in the United States for more than 20 days, I heard that many chain arcade halls have been stocked, all of which rely on the shipping channels of Akio Morita, and I have to keep an eye on it myself. Last month, I was completely stared at and killed, and there was no freedom at all. ”
There is nothing to hide about this business arrangement. In terms of academics, it should have been like this, and after serving the professor for so long, how to do it without giving some freedom.
Ye Kun thought about it for a while, and asked quietly: "How long will it take? At most, a month without classes is enough, right?"
Gu: "That's enough, not necessarily for a month, I will fly a few times intermittently, as a trapeze." ”
Ye: "And then?"
Gu: "What?"
Ye pouted: "Aren't you very ambitious in your life plan? Are you going to run at both ends and live a two-to-three-year doctoral career?
Gu Biao understood now: "Oh, yes, I may finish this semester and take a leave of absence to return to China." Actually, I didn't want to waste most of my energy in the United States. ”
Speaking of this, he also deliberately lowered his voice and leaned into Ye Kun's ear: "Have you forgotten the project we worked on together to break through the blockade of the Ba Bucket Gray Zone, I know so much, I have stayed in the United States for a long time, and I am still in front of an old fox like Kissinger every day, and it is inevitable that I am not safe about the subject."
It's better to go back to China for a year off, but these technologies in the gray area of the barrel, by the middle of 82, almost all of them can be stolen, and then I will continue my studies, even if it is slowly discovered, it is not a big deal. At most, they have guarded me from now on, so that I will never have a chance to do it in my life, that is, I have enough capital. ”
There was a thunderstorm outside the window.
It's just that Gu Wei said such a national righteousness, and Ye Kun couldn't refute it.
"You...... This is going to be gone again?"
Why are you playing with a mother?!
"No, I didn't leave in May, but it's been more than three months. Gu Biao looked innocent.
"Well, hum, yes, it's more than three months, it's really difficult, it's annoying to see you. Ye Kun put his short hair behind his ears with a dignified face.
She doesn't want to lose face, since the other party is so angry, she has to go back more indifferent than the other party.
Gu Biao thought about it, untied his car key and pushed it to the other party (he prepared two identical car keys in advance)
"Ye Zi, there is something to trouble you in the future, I bought this villa to move in with my bag, and I was tossed by someone a while ago. Confidentiality may not be very good. Before I plan to leave in May, I will call a construction team to reinstall it inside and out, so as to thoroughly check whether there are any bugs and candid photography, and take extra precautions.
The people must not worry about finding it themselves, you can help me make an appointment with an embassy for long-term cooperation. We've been friends for so long, and I know that you're not a rare money, so I won't look down on you with gifts. After this villa is installed, the smell will be dispersed, and when I come again, I will live for less than a year, so I will borrow you. You can also take the car to drive, after all, it is to help me run errands, and it is inconvenient to not have a car. ”
"No, Director Feng doesn't have a car yet, he is so old, he has been working since he was in the liaison office. Ye Kun consciously refused very sensitively, "Counselor Yang, Counselor Jiang and Counselor Xu above don't have a special car, or three people share one, who is on duty and who uses the car, you are too eye-catching." ”
However, Gu Biao obviously took this into account and analyzed: "They all know that this is my car, you are helping me because of work tasks, by driving, what's the matter? ”
Gu Wei has said this step, Ye Kun can also borrow the donkey from the slope, so he took the keys to the sports car and the villa.
After all, she is doing Gu Biao a favor, not receiving gifts, strictly speaking, she is still at a loss, and she has paid extra labor to supervise the house, so she feels comfortable when she thinks about it.
"Then when are you going to California? Do you still stay up late tonight?" Ye Kun asked after taking the car and the house.
Gu Biao leisurely took a bottle of beer from the bar and drank while watching TV: "I'm casual, it's okay to go on tomorrow's plane, anyway, the ticket in the United States is too easy to buy." If you're not afraid of staying up late, I'll watch TV with you to keep the New Year-
But to be honest, staying up late is not good for girls' skin, and we didn't keep it at noon. Now it's strictly the noon of the first day of the Lunar New Year. ”
"Go and go, it's just the algorithm of the embassy here in Watsonton, you go to Chinatown in California to see, people's Spring Festival is not local time, who asks the time in the capital. Ye Kun grasped the point of Gu Wei's lack of knowledge, retorted proudly, and then pursued after the victory.
"Besides, to say that you have no brains is to say that you have no brains - you also said that you want to borrow my car, and you also said that you will be going to California tomorrow and drive yourself to the airport. When the time comes, you're going to ask one of my girls to take a taxi to the airport to help you get the car back?"
"What do you think?"
Ye Su snorted coldly: "Go and clean up a bedroom for me! I'll live here after the New Year." I'll go to the airport with you tomorrow and drive the car back – but I can tell you, the key to my room will be given to me now. If you dare to stay without permission and sneak in in the middle of the night, I will kill you!"
Gu Biao was not angry, went back to the house to search, and lost a table of keys: "Na, the keys to the four sets of guest bedrooms are all here, you can go upstairs and pick one by yourself." Don't worry, I'm not going to do that kind of thing, I'm a beast when I go in.
However, I suggest that after you choose which set, quickly take the sheets and quilt covers to the washing machine and wash them, because they have not been washed or slept after they were bought. There is a dryer next to it, and it is absolutely dry after the New Year. ”
American villas rarely have small balconies for drying clothes, and if there are, they are the part of the second floor that is smaller than the first floor, and the roof of the lower floor is directly used as a balcony. So people's balconies are used for playing, not for drying clothes.
At the same time, every American has a dryer, which costs a lot of electricity (and their electricity is not expensive), and the washing machine is thrown in to dry. Therefore, Americans have never been entangled in the question of "will it be too late to dry it if it is washed now?"
Gu Biao has been in Georgetown for a month, and he has become accustomed to this way of life - clothes must be baked, disposable sanitary ware must be used for cleaning, and no one rubs rags and mops dirtily anymore.
Therefore, Americans have been cleaning for a long time, and they will not mop the floor every day like domestic cleanliness, and people will throw away the mop head once they use it, which is a consumable.
Ye Su went upstairs to choose a room, then threw all the sheets and quilts into the big washing machine, and went downstairs to watch TV and keep the New Year.
Gu Biao threw the dumpling bowl into the dishwasher, opened a bottle of beer and a bottle of drink, sat on the sofa and watched TV for a few hours, chatting by the way. As soon as the clock rang at 12 o'clock at midnight, they went to rest.
Of course, Gu Biao didn't know how to be a beast, so he didn't say anything all night, and the door was locked well.
The next day, he let Ye Kun sit in the co-pilot, and he drove the firebird to the airport.
The two waved their hands politely and coldly at the airport, watching Gu Biao take off.
Then Ye Kun drove his car back to the city, and he was thinking about purchasing some decorations - Gu Biao's aesthetics are really spicy, and the villa decoration is so old-fashioned, he can actually live in it.
