Chapter 178: A Good Family Man
Melissa was so happy that she kissed her bewildered baby and set off with her bag, rumbling the Mustang to go to Coeur d'Alene and her music training school to start work, which was quite a day to look forward to.
Zhang Dawei is holding the baby, and Melissa is going to work, which is her expectation, but for Zhang Dawei, it is naturally no problem to stay at home and take care of the baby. He doesn't have any machismo, he doesn't feel that any man wants to be outside the home, and he doesn't think that a woman must take care of the baby at home, it can be whoever has the time to take the baby.
He didn't think that just because he could make some money now meant that everything was fine, and he didn't think that Melissa had to be a housewife now. Since Melissa wants to try her hand at work, it's good to support it, anyway, it's not far from home, Melissa will come home every day, and it won't affect her to play with the baby, so there's nothing to worry about.
"Baby, Mommy has to go to work, can we play games at home?" kissed the baby who was a little reluctant, Zhang Dawei explained, "Let's go to the vegetable garden first, we pick melons, and then we have to catch insects and hoe weeds." ”
"Mommy goes to work and doesn't play with the baby. The baby is still very aggrieved, because her mother went to work, "The baby wants to go out to play, and the baby goes shopping." ”
The baby doesn't look like it's because Melissa is out to work and isn't used to it, it's because the baby is lost because they can't go shopping together. The little one is obviously not uncomfortable, because there is still a father at home and the baby is happy.
The baby with a small plastic shovel is busy, busy hoeing the grass, busy picking tomatoes, and the vegetable garden is always one of the baby's favorite spots. No way, who makes this place have a lot of delicious food, for greedy babies, there is naturally no better place than this, full of a sense of accomplishment, can fill a small belly.
Xiaobai, Joe and Pooh, this is none of them who love to be clean, and playing with mud is a fun game for them.
The baby carrying the small basket is very happy, looking at the tomatoes and melons in the basket, the baby is about to drool. They are also very happy, although they mainly eat meat, but it is also very good to occasionally have some vegetarian food; of course, for Xiao Qiao, these delicious fruits are very appetizing, it does not eat everything, and it does not get tired of eating, this is Xiao Qiao.
"Dad, pasta, I'm going to eat noodles. "The baby's snack is also not to be underestimated, the little guy has a request," clams, the baby eats clam noodles. ”
"Okay, I'll burn it for you at noon. But now, let's go out and play. Zhang Dawei laughed and said to the little guy, "Your uncle wants to practice horseback riding, let's teach him." ”
Joshua who put down the game console is energetic, he can now ride a horse, but it is at the level where he sits on the back of a horse and does not fall. Although he thinks he is relatively brave, Joshua also knows very well that bravery and recklessness are completely different things, and he knows that riding a horse requires enough professionalism and skill, not to say that he can do whatever he wants, which is not right.
So you can't take any risks, because that's also irresponsible to yourself.
With Zhang Dawei on his side to guide and escort, Joshua felt that this was actually safer. He knew very well that although Zhang Dawei was not a master of horsemanship, there was no problem in teaching him, and Zhang Dawei was still very powerful.
"Joshua, remember what I told you, don't put your feet on your feet. Zhang Dawei pointed to Joshua's feet and said, "You know, you can't have the balls of your feet. If there is an accident, you must make sure that you can get out of the situation in time. ”
Joshua was obedient, just stepping lightly on his toes on the stirrups, and he really needed to pay attention to these details, because it seemed safe now, but he needed to develop some good habits in order to deal with some unexpected situations.
"Don't pull the reins too tightly. Zhang Dawei held the baby and continued to instruct, "You still look a little nervous." Dude, you need to learn to relax. Relax your nerves, you don't need to be so nervous all the time. You will be tired and the horse will be nervous. ”
"Uncle, it's easiest to ride a horse!" Zhang Baobao, the king of mouth cannons, went online, and the little guy also had an opinion, "Uncle, hold the horse's neck, it's the most well-behaved." Uncle, don't be afraid!"
Joshua didn't know what to say, because this niece of his was powerful and basically the ignorant and fearless type. And this little guy is very powerful, although he needs Zhang Dawei's help to ride a horse, but if he rides a sheep, it is called a sa huan.
But there's nothing to say, because the baby has that foundation, and the lazy sheep basically depends on the baby for everything. But these horses are not so considerate, so the baby's strength is targeted, and she is extremely powerful in front of her little friends. But in front of ordinary animals, Zhang Baobao's children will still be deflated, but she doesn't know, she still thinks she is omnipotent, she thinks she is the cutest and popular.
Joshua is in a good mood, although some training every day is really tiring, but Joshua feels that this will help him improve his strength a lot. Even if he knows that if he wants to make progress, he can't see the effect in a day or two, but he knows that some of Zhang Dawei's training should be very effective.
There is no way to be tired, because if you want to improve, you naturally need to work hard, and this is the most correct way.
In fact, the life on the ranch is very happy and pleasant, Zhang Dawei will not keep an eye on him all the time, it is all on his own consciousness; Joshua is not bad, there is no laziness or anything like that, many things are done by him consciously.
In addition to training, I can ride a horse every day, play games, and now I am slowly learning to drive a yacht. Joshua felt that this kind of life could not be better, and it was also the life that a hairy boy dreamed of.
Of course, this kind of life makes his teammates and classmates extremely envious, at first glance, the current Joshua has actually become a rich second generation, and this kid's current wonderful life is indeed envied by many people.
"Brother, come and wash my car!" Zhang Dawei held the water pipe, looking at his car and worried, "Do you know how to fix a car? ”
Joshua nodded approvingly, and said seriously, "I think so too, Merry is right. You're just going to take the car to a repair shop, and you're not even going to simply take the engine off. Man, that's not right. You should learn to repair cars simply, you can't have no hands-on skills at all. David, you can't even fix the lawn and need a gardener. ”
Zhang Dawei smiled bitterly, he really couldn't help it; in the United States, some men from ordinary families do have good hands-on ability. But like Zhang Dawei, not everyone can simply repair and clean the car.
However, it seems that some of the requirements for Zhang Dawei are not low; although he has done well in many aspects, everyone seems to agree that Zhang Dawei can do better. Even if he is not expected to become a professional car mechanic, he should understand simple disassembly and maintenance, and if he changes the water pipes and wires at home, Zhang Dawei should also try to become a plumber......
It's not just that labor costs are expensive in the United States, but it's also because those who are able to work harder; the head of the family should do more.
The baby is to join in the fun, the little guy with the same fun Xiaobai, Pooh a few are busy, the front cover of the car will be handed over to them, but Zhang Dawei is worried that the baby will take Xiaobai a few to help around, he has to clean it again.
The baby sitting on the front cover of the car pushes Xiaobai, and now Xiaobai's role is a sponge, this guy is happily rubbing around; Winnie and Xiao Qiao roll around, acting as a dry rag, to wipe the foam and water off the car.
This can be regarded as a help, but in the eyes of the baby and Xiaobai, it is basically a game, an interesting game.
"I finally know why this car of yours looks old so fast. Joshua was a little amused and said to Zhang Dawei, "If Xiaobai and Vini work harder, the car will definitely be scratched." ”
Zhang Dawei was happy and in a good mood, "They are still more careful, they don't scratch blindly with their claws." As for changing cars, I don't think it's difficult. My next car will definitely please Merry, and I want to wait until I am financially better, I will buy a Rolls-Royce Phantom, the soft-top convertible one. ”
"Merry won't like it, if you want her to like it, I recommend Ferrari or Porsche, and McLaren is very good. Joshua smiled happily and knew very well, "I know Merry, she's my sister. David, you don't look like a young, wealthy athlete. Those guys will have a fleet of luxury cars and they have too many sports cars. But you, come on, your car is so old-fashioned! Dude, I know you're not a businessman, you don't need to be a businessman!"
Zhang Dawei is happy, think about it, this is really the truth; he really doesn't look like a flamboyant rich athlete, in fact, Zhang Dawei is not particularly rich now. However, compared to those athletes who drive sports cars and live luxurious lives, Zhang Dawei is really low-key enough, and the low-key is amazing, which makes Joshua very surprised.
This is completely a good family man, looking at Zhang Dawei holding the baby in one hand and skillfully stir-frying the vegetables with the other; this guy's pursuit, is really not how much he has achieved in the sports field, he seems to want to make more dishes to get the baby's affirmation, that is obviously Zhang Dawei's more important thing!
"Dad, why is there no salmon?" the baby pointed to the pot, very serious, "The baby wants to eat fish, Dad, let's go to the restaurant for dinner, Mommy too!"
Zhang Dawei fried the pasta and said to the baby, "Let's go to the restaurant for dinner, and we'll pick up your mommy from work." Baby, Mommy works hard, what should you do?"
As long as the baby kisses, Mommy will be very happy, and Mommy will not be tired!
