Chapter 159: Qiao Li Gets Serious
Returning to the manor and getting off at the door of the villa, George grabbed Gigi's hand, and the two walked hand in hand towards the villa.
Entering the villa, George saw his mother sitting alone on the sofa in the living room, reading a book in her hand.
"Mom, we're back. β
βantiγ β
George and Gigi walked towards the living room without any pause, and without deliberately weakening footsteps, Jory woke up from reading, and looked up at the two who were already standing in front of them.
"Come, come and sit here. β
Qiao Li looked at the two people who were standing in front of her hand in hand, who were not matched in her eyes, and the smile in her eyes could not be hidden, and she stretched out her hand and patted the empty seat next to her and said to Gigi.
George let go of Gigi's hand and told her to go over to chat with his mother, while he turned and walked towards the kitchen, which was still lit up.
"Aunt Zhang, it's okay for them to do these things, why are you still here in person, what about Cleya, why don't you stop it?"
After entering the kitchen, George saw a figure serving the soup in the pot into a bowl, and then put the bowl full of soup into the tray, quickly walked two steps, came to the figure and took the soup bowl in his hand, and looked around.
"The young master is back, you can't drink this bowl, this is the cordyceps stewed for Madame, to nourish the body, your ginseng soup is here. β
There were a few white hairs in the black hair, but there were not many wrinkles on her face, because in the manor, she was only in charge of Qiao Li's food and was not very tired, but a little rich, Aunt Zhang looked at George with a smile on her face, stretched out her hand and grabbed the soup bowl that George was about to put up, took it back and put it on the tray, turned around and walked to another steaming small pot, took out a bowl of soup, and handed it to George's hand.
"Thank you, Aunt Zhang. β
George took the soup bowl and carefully placed it on the tray, watching Aunt Zhang put the other bowl with the soup in the tray, and then picked up the tray and was about to go outside.
After taking two steps, George pushed back again, looked at Aunt Zhang's face, and confirmed that he was not mistaken, Aunt Zhang's expression of wanting to speak again let George know that she must have something to say to herself, but she just didn't know how to speak.
"Aunt Zhang, you have been at home for many years, and my mother and Alice treat you as a family, what can you say. β
βοΌοΌοΌοΌοΌοΌοΌβ
"Aunt Zhang, we are a family, there is nothing that cannot be said between the family, what difficulties do you encounter, is it a lack of money or something else, tell me, if I can help you, I will definitely help you, I can't do it with my mother and Smith!"
Seeing that Aunt Zhang opened her mouth and closed it again, not talking, George put down the tray in his hand and said.
"It's my brother's child, I want to come to the United States to study, my visa was denied, he called me and asked me if there is anything I can do, I'm an old woman who works as a cook, how can I do anything if I don't go out of the door all day long, except for being able to give him some help in life, I don't have anything to do about the visa." β
Seeing that George looked at herself with a somewhat serious face, Aunt Zhang thought about it and said the matter, after listening to it, George breathed a long sigh of relief, and with a slightly serious face, he resurfaced with a smile and said:
"I thought it was something difficult, this matter is simple, go back and tell me his name and passport number, I will find someone to do it, there will be results soon, the soup is going to be cold, I will send them over first, it is not early, you go back and rest early." β
With that, George picked up the tray again and walked out of the kitchen.
When he came to the living room, he handed two bowls of cordyceps soup to his mother and Gigi, and he took the ginseng soup and drank it in small sips.
"Mom, Aunt Zhang's nephew is coming to the United States to go to school, according to Chinese customs, do we give him a red envelope. β
After drinking the ginseng soup in the bowl, George said to his mother about Aunt Zhang, the big and small things in the manor have always been done by his mother, and George is not sure if he needs to express this kind of thing.
"Did you encounter any difficulties, if Sister-in-law Zhang hadn't encountered difficulties, she wouldn't have asked one of your juniors for help. β
As soon as George's words came out, Qiao Li knew that there must be something else in this, otherwise according to Aunt Zhang's character, she would not say her own things, especially in the face of George, a junior.
"It's not a big deal, I was rejected by those visa officers whose eyes were up to their nostrils and who looked like spies, so I just found someone to move around. β
"Well, since Sister-in-law Zhang has found you, then you will do a good job of this matter, as for the red envelope, this is indispensable, Sister-in-law Zhang's man died early, and the two have no children, this nephew is equivalent to her son, if she hadn't been sending money back all these years, so that he could go to the best school and receive the best education, he would not have been able to come out of that remote place.
Now that this child has a future, he has been recognized by his own ability, and it is a big deal for Sister-in-law Zhang to come to the United States to study, if it weren't for the mood of his younger brother's family, as early as more than ten years ago, she thought about taking him over.
It's okay now, after the child comes, I want to see him at any time, and if I miss him, Sister-in-law Zhang can live a little easier. β
After listening to George's explanation, Qiao Li thought about it and said to George seriously, for Sister-in-law Zhang, who has been in the manor all these years, Qiao Li is very clear about everything about her.
Because the two of them are Chinese, they can chat with each other to relieve boredom when they are bored, and some things are repeatedly taken out, so Qiao Li still knows some of her actions and psychology better.
"Don't worry, when have I ever let you down. β
"I'm very disappointed in you today, you used to go in and out of those places a lot, and you had your own ideas at that time, and I didn't care much about you.
Today you even went to this gigi together, don't you know that she can't adapt to those places, don't take gigi to the places you used to go to in the future, those places are not suitable for her, and you have to try to avoid appearing in those places in the future, since you have found a girlfriend at the age of twenty-four, it means that you want to live a normal life.
If you want to live a normal life, try to stay away from those places, and since you have made your choice, don't bother with things that don't exist.
I heard Gigi say you're going to buy a ranch and live there for a while, and that's fine.
I bought a new ranch in Texas, it was some time ago when you were in Xiangjiang, a fellow in Texas because of business turnover difficulties, need to sell the ranch in exchange for funds, I got the news and bought it, the ranch is not big, mainly for cattle raising, is a hilly terrain, the environment is not bad, where can you go to live for a while.
Self-cultivation, Taoguang's vague idea is good, but it is not suitable for you now, after the New Year, go back to Harvard to continue to finish the courses you have not finished, this is what you should do now.
Money and power can't represent everything, knowledge is the most important thing, if you succeed now, it doesn't mean that you can continue to succeed in the future, I see the changes in Los Angeles in my eyes, the changes are too fast now, and it is no longer possible to see through with the previous vision. β
