Chapter 411: Children's Baseball Game
Josh laughed as if he had heard the biggest joke of all: "Hahahaha, can you say anything more? This is Prada." β
Xiao Peng plucked out his ears: "Young man, you can get your dress first." You don't speak, no one treats you as dumb. β
"You call me a young man?" Josh was stunned, Xiao Peng looked a little smaller than him, and looked much younger than Josh, but instead Xiao Peng called him a young man.
Xiao Peng nodded: "People's age is divided into two kinds, physiological age and psychological age, your biological age is understandable, your psychological age is more naΓ―ve, not young people?"
"You!" Josh wanted to say something, Xiao Peng shook his finger: "It's understandable that young people are impulsive, but you can't be brainless, don't look at the world with your own eyes, the world is always different from what you think." What you think is a sky-high luxury is just a piece of clothing in the eyes of some people. Unfortunately, I was one of those people. β
"Hmph, who wouldn't brag?" Josh knew that Xiao Peng was not short of money, but he still didn't believe that Prada would give him clothes, a jockey, at best, was worth millions, so that Prada could pay so much attention?
Xiao Peng smiled slightly: "I'm not your father, there's no reason to teach you to be smart, and I don't have time to talk nonsense with you here, just honestly shut your mouth and watch here." Oh yes, if you can't afford the clothes, put them back, in your words, this is Prada. β
Listening to Xiao Peng's words, Kohler looked at Josh nervously: "Josh, do you still want to buy this dress?" She is optimistic about this dress! She can't think of such an expensive dress.
Even if the crooked nuts have a high income, Prada is considered a luxury. Although generally speaking, their income in half a month is enough to buy a Prada bag, but most of the people in the Stars and Stripes live in debt, and the average price of two thousand dollars Prada bags is really not a small number for them.
The price of a dress is higher, a normal one can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, but at this price, most children's dresses are rented, not bought.
And this dress that costs tens of thousands of dollars can only be hoped for for the vast majority of Stars and Stripes. This is only the mass-produced type that can be sold in the store, not the most expensive kind. As for the hundreds of thousands of dresses, they can only be the choice of rich stars. Kohler didn't want such an expensive dress to fly with wings.
Josh gritted his teeth: "Isn't it just a dress, help me wrap up that dress!"
Xiao Peng shrugged, this is a model of dying to save face.
The salesman was also interesting: "Are you still trying on the shoes?"
Josh took a breath and looked at Kohler's expectant eyes: "Wrap up!" If there are more lice, they won't bite, and if they have more debts, they won't oppress! Anyway, it's already like this, isn't it just eight hundred dollars of shoes? After finishing speaking, he looked at Xiao Peng with a provocative expression.
Xiao Peng shook his head on the side, how could he meet such a clown?
Meghan spoke at this time: "Josh, can you afford to pay this debt?" She was still a kind girl, and thought about it for Josh.
Josh laughed, "When I get a college scholarship, it's not a big deal for me!
Megan snorted coldly: "You'll just hold it up." After that, he ignored him.
When the waiter was still there to pack the clothes, an old lady walked in, and without saying a word after coming in, she walked up to Xiao Peng and said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao, hello." β
Xiao Peng just wanted to say hello to her, but the old lady grabbed Megan: "It's this girl, right? You, you, bring over all the clothes and shoes that this young lady just picked out, Mr. Xiao, and we'll see you in three hours. Without saying a word, he left with two salesmen dragging Meghan in tow. Xiao Peng was left standing in place with his hands outstretched, looking embarrassed. Three hours? Didn't that kill him?
"Who's that old lady?" said Kohler, who was settling the bill over there, with a curious look on his face as he asked the only remaining waiter.
The waiter introduced, "Oh, that's our director, Ms. Royce. β
Xiao Peng is no longer sitting here: "Beauty, where is the smoking room?"
The waiter was stunned: "Sir, we can't smoke here." You can go outside and smoke. β
Xiao Peng got up: "Okay, I'll be back in three hours." After speaking, he waved his hand to the waiter, didn't look at Josh, turned around and left. Three hours? Isn't this killing Xiao Peng?
It is said that almost all of a man's life is spent waiting for a woman: waiting for the right woman to appear in his life, waiting for a woman to change clothes, waiting for a woman to put on makeup, waiting for a woman to do her hairγγγγγγ He wanted to find a place to play for a while now, instead of sitting here stupidly.
As for Josh, who is that?
Xiao Peng arrived at the parking lot, lit a cigarette and returned to the car, just wanted to drive, and found a serious problem------ he couldn't drive here. Well, how is he going to solve it in the past three hours?
Xiao Peng wandered aimlessly through the streets of Dallas when he suddenly heard cheers. Xiao Peng turned his head to see that the cheers came from the park, and it was boring to be idle anyway, Xiao Peng's curiosity came up and he followed the cheers.
When I entered the park, Xiao Peng was also happy, it turned out to be a group of children, probably seven or eight years old, playing baseball there, all wearing team uniforms, very serious, next to their parents, cheering for the children's performance.
Xiao Peng also became interested, and sat in the stands to watch the children play, such things are common in the Stars and Stripes Country, and their enthusiasm for sports began with dolls. Drinking Coke and watching the children compete is also a good way to pass the time.
Regardless of the child's performance on the field, the parents on the scene are doing their best to cheer for the child. This is to increase the child's self-confidence. For them, the child's performance on the field is not the most important, but the child's mental and physical growth is the key, which is not like some parents in Huaxia, who regard the ranking higher than the sky.
Think about the children of China are actually living painfully enough, many children were sent to learn English before Chinese was spoken, and in the eyes of many parents in China, the importance of children's grades far exceeds the health of children. Many children go to and from school every day to study at home, and there is no outdoor activity at all.
What should I do if I get hurt?
What should I do if my academic performance is poor?
What if I get bad at learning from another child?
In these parents, the children must grow up along the pace prescribed by themselves, and the children of Huaxia have been entrusted with their parents' dreams from the day they were born, and the parents want their children to inherit the dreams that they have not completed, and to cultivate their children in this direction.
The sad thing is that many children study hard every day and graduate from prestigious universities even according to their parents' arrangements. In the society, I also found that 90% of the knowledge in school has nothing to do with future work. For example, if you study international trade and work in a job that has nothing to do with international trade, there are many people who go to the street to distribute small leaflets with a degree from a prestigious university.
But even so, when they have children, they will still be like their parents as always, imposing their dreams on their children, resulting in amazing academic performance of Chinese children one by one, and in other aspects, it is not satisfactory.
For example, physical fitness.
As everyone knows, what people can really have is their own body. A healthy body that no amount of money can buy. And a healthy body should lay a good foundation from the childhood. But in China, the vast majority of urban children are filled with all kinds of cram schools and homework during this period.
When you are really old and have problems with your body, you really know the importance of health, but who can blame you for this?
Xiao Peng was sitting there watching the children play, and also applauded the wonderful batting, watching with relish, a white child played a beautiful shot, Xiao Peng was also infected by the atmosphere of the scene, and cheered loudly.
"Hey, brother, do you like that shot?" Just as Xiao Peng was whistling loudly there, a strong man sitting in the front row of him turned around and greeted Xiao Peng.
"Yes, the kid is good, the eyes are fast, a beautiful blow. Xiao Peng replied.
The strong man stretched out his fist: "I think so too! That's my son!"
Xiao Peng boxed with him: "Yes, your son is a strong guy!"
The strong man sat up from his seat, sat next to Xiao Peng, and carried a meal basket in his hand, took out a bottle of Shanabock beer from it and handed it to Xiao Peng: "Just for you to have such an eye, come, let's have a drink." Well, you can't buy any other beer in Texas anyway. Oh, my name is Dirk-Texan, Son of Texas. β
The craze for Shanabock beer in Texas is beyond what others think, which is why people ridicule Texans for being conservative and not liking to challenge new things. And Xiao Peng really can't get used to drinking this beer, it's far worse than Tsingtao beer! Complaining about Dirk's name, are you afraid that others won't know that you are a Texan?
But you can't refuse at this time, right? Xiao Peng and the strong man touched the wine bottle: "Xiao Peng, a Chinese person." The two of them drank it all together.
"Good amount of alcohol. Dirk said with a smile: "I really didn't expect you Chinese people to like to watch baseball, I thought you were Chinese, even if you are Chinese, there are very few people who watch baseball, and the most Chinese people watch basketball." Do you know how to play baseball?"
Xiao Peng just wanted to answer, but there was a provocative tone behind him: "Can Chinese people play baseball? Please, it's good that they know the rules!"
"Why are you again? what are you doing following me like a cockroach?" Behind him was none other than Josh and Kohler.
Josh wasn't what he was now, but he looked proud, with a big stack of bills in his hand, and he looked like he could have thirty or forty thousand dollars. What is this Nima doing? Is he running to show off his wealth?
