Chapter 143: The Harbor of the Heart

Sure enough, there was an endless conversation between women and women, and the next time George was gorgeously ignored, and in just a few minutes, Alice and Gigi were like friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

This made George, who originally thought that Gigi would need to go through a period of running-in to integrate into the family, with a happy smile on his face.

The mother saw the relatives who had been separated for many years and had never seen each other, and the younger sister chatted happily with Gigi, although Gigi was echoing Alice most of the time, but her intentions made George feel distressed and a little happy at the same time.

This is a necessary path for everyone to experience, after all, the sudden addition of a new person to the personnel who have been familiar for many years makes the members who have been used to it a little uncomfortable.

Suddenly George, who realized that he was an outsider, shook his head, stepped out of the room, picked up an umbrella where he had placed an umbrella at the door, opened it and entered the drizzle.

It's a rare rainy season in Los Angeles, and it's George's favorite season, in this season, George will always sit quietly in the pond behind the villa, holding a fishing rod, sitting quietly in the Oriental pavilion that Smith built for his mother, with a can of beer, and a game of fishing alone.

This is the quietest and most rare time in George's heart to rest, and it is also the most relaxed time for him, he can not think about anything, just sit there quietly, waiting for the crucian carp, carp, grass carp and other fish in the pond brought by Huaxia to bite his hook because of greed, and then he handed the harvest to his mother, drank a bowl of fish soup carefully made by his mother and ate a piece of fish.

The Oriental pavilions and Western-style manors are perfectly integrated, which is a design scheme that Smith has invited ancient architectural experts and American design experts in China at a high cost, integrating the two formats of China and the United States, without any flaws, and seems to be integrated together.

Receiving the rod from the hand of the servant who knew him well, he stuffed a small piece of fish food on the hook, and threw the long line into the pond, George was like the old man who was seated, and he did not move except to breathe.

Today George's luck is good, just thrown into the water of the hook, soon a fish hooked, the quick-eyed George grabbed the fishing rod put aside and pulled up, a palm-sized crucian carp appeared in sight, seeing the crucian carp George, showed a happy smile.

As a child, he had never seen or eaten crucian carp until he moved to this estate in Los Angeles, when his mother accidentally made a delicious crucian carp soup, and from then on, George completely abandoned the cod and fell in love with the taste of crucian carp.

The crucian carp, which continued to struggle because of the pain, was firmly grasped by him, removed it from the hook and put it into the small bucket beside him, and then repeated the initial action, hanging food, throwing the line, sitting quietly like Lao Zeng, and continuing to wait for the arrival of the startled glutton.

I don't know how long it took, but the sound of talking and footsteps from far and near began to come, George didn't turn around, just raised a finger to his mouth, made a tight motion, and stared closely at the swim bladder that began to shake.

When waiting for the two who didn't speak to come to the side, George suddenly grabbed the fishing rod and threw it up, and another glutton reappeared in George's sight.

"Today's fish soup is enough, and the main course is missing, Cleia"

From talking to himself, the movements in his hands began to repeat the original movements without any pause, and his voice suddenly increased, startling the two people who had been standing beside him.

"Young Master George, what do you command. ”

The servant who had just prepared the rod for George soon appeared at George's side and asked in a low voice.

"Let the master of the old Beijing roast duck restaurant in Chinatown prepare kitchen utensils, come over, we will have a duck banquet today, and by the way, tell Aunt Zhang, let her make a winter melon cup, and Master Liu will make a boiled cabbage.

After Alec prepares some desserts, you can taste his craftsmanship, Italian and French dishes you can choose and let him make them for you. ”

After George threw the rod out again, he looked at Clia who was standing beside him and commanded.

In addition to Aunt Zhang, who left China and came to the United States at the same time as her mother, there was also a top Sichuan chef hired by Smith in New York to leave China in the late 80s and come to the United States to pan for gold, in order to comfort her mother's longing for her hometown.

Alec is not used to Chinese cuisine, but occasionally needs to change the taste of the three-Michelin-starred chef invited in France, where Alec can carefully study his cooking skills without being disturbed by some things, except for the occasional meal of French or Italian food for the George family, he is almost a person with a high salary and nothing to do.

Of course, there is also a hierarchy factor in this, after all, Clea and these people are just servants, with their own kitchen, after George saw it, he persuaded Alec to let him occasionally improve the food for them, but Alec has always been perfunctory, and now George solemnly said this to Cleia, which means that Alec does not have any chance to be lazy, and can carefully prepare the food they like to eat for the maid bodyguards in the manor, once to satisfy their appetite and mouth, and it is also a practice of buying people's hearts。

After Chria left, George pointed to the two stone piers not far away, signaling that they could sit down and stop talking, and regain their composure.

"This is the quietest time for my brother, I heard my mother say that only at this time will my brother be most relaxed, let's leave him alone, I will take you to see the mini donkeys and mini horses that he shipped to Los Angeles last year, I named them George and Alice, they are obedient. ”

Alice's voice left from near and far, George knew that the two were leaving, even if the teenage Alice had more contact with things and knew more, in George's eyes, he would always be a little girl who had not grown up, just like she who took the initiative to pull Gigi away and show off the gifts she received in front of her.

George, who was quiet again, took out a cigarette case and took out a cigarette inside, lit it casually, took a puff, turned his head to look at the pavilions shrouded in misty drizzle, and let out a long breath of turbid air in his heart, allowing himself to really relax, not thinking about the next work arrangements and the things he was going to do.
