Chapter Seventy-Six: Returning Home After the Meeting

Just after 10 a.m., two pickup trucks drove into the estate.

As soon as the car in front of them came to a stop, two little girls ran out of the car, and Lily and Lucy ran happily to their daughter and niece, who had been waiting there, laughing and laughing with each other, and gesturing with their hands from time to time. After a while, they ran together to a small house in the villa area that was dedicated to breeding ponies.

Ji Kai and Orrick stepped forward to greet the Tom family, and Laura also brought her small snacks, Ji Kai thanked them after taking it, and invited them to the villa to sit down and rest.

Tom and the others did not enter the villa, but came to the grass next to the garden, Oric had already arranged for people to place a lot of seats and small square tables there, and they would eat there at noon, all buffet-style, and prepared a lot of food and drinks, so that everyone could eat whatever they wanted, which was the American style.

It's not that the villa is bad, but it will make the guests feel constrained, and Ji Kai also agrees with him, follow the customs!

Next, a lot of cars came one after another, basically all of them were pickup trucks. Tom was very enthusiastic, helped Ji Kai introduce the visitors, and beckoned everyone to sit down for him.

Fortunately, there are employees at the ranch and farm who come to help, otherwise Ji Kai and Oric really wouldn't be able to greet them.

Among these people, there are also people with children, Ji Kai called his daughter and niece to come over, and asked them to invite these children to play together, of course, accompanied by a maid who takes care of them.

My daughter and niece were very happy to see so many children coming again. Lily and Lucy also helped introduce the children, and everyone ran away to play elsewhere.

My father and mother, who couldn't speak English, came out to meet with her, accompanied by Yoko Kitagawa and Keiko Tanki, who were still talking slowly with the older neighbors.

Ji Kai, accompanied by Orik, said a few words to every guest, at least he was familiar. Each guest brings a small gift, either a home-made snack or a bottle of self-made wine. They were all put in a small basket and made into a small package.

Ji Kai instructed Oric that when the guests left, they must give some gifts with Chinese characteristics, but fortunately, there are still many gifts bought before the Spring Festival, so there is no need to worry about not enough to distribute.

At noon, Ji Kai asked Oric to inform that all the prepared ingredients would be served and put on the table on the side, not only the common vegetable and fruit salad in the United States, but also some Chinese dishes, such as mapo tofu, boiled beef, kung pao chicken, etc., which are not very expensive, but very representative.

Everyone walked to the table with a plate and chose their favorite food, which was very lively. Especially the daughter and little niece, with a group of new friends, introduced them to Chinese cuisine, saying that this is delicious, that is not bad, just with fingers, not in English, full of anxiety.

Everyone laughed good-naturedly when they saw it, and the friends were also very happy to try the dishes introduced by their daughters.

Chinese food is really powerful, both adults and children are very happy to eat, and they all say that the taste is different from that of the Chinese restaurant in Irvine City, but it is delicious.

Ji Kai raised his glass of wine to everyone and said:

"Welcome to my estate, it's the first time I've met you after coming to the U.S. for so long. I'm sorry for this belated realization. However, thanks to our enthusiastic Tom family, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to meet so many friends if they hadn't been in touch with them. I hope that when you have any gatherings in the future, please let me know, I like to communicate more with you, and I believe that as long as we have known each other for a long time, we will definitely have a common language. Thank you again for coming. ”

After speaking, he raised his glass and drank all the wine in the glass, he didn't drink well, and when he drank it in one sip, his face immediately became rosy. Everyone was very face-saving, and they raised their glasses to thank them and drank the wine or drink in the glass.

Next, Ji Kai talked and laughed with those neighbors again, and recommended some famous dishes in China for everyone to taste.

After lunch, of course, a maid came to clean up the scraps, and the women among the guests also came to help. After everyone sat down to drink tea and had dessert after dinner, they began to say goodbye one by one. At this time, Oric will step forward and give a packaged Chinese gift, and the guests will be happy to accept it, but they will not open it on the spot, and it is good to leave some surprises to go back.

The daughter and niece have only been playing with their friends they have just met for a day, and they are a little reluctant to separate, and the children still like to play with their peers. But I had no choice, so I had to meet next time I had a chance to play together.

The time spent together passed too quickly, and if I didn't go back, I guess my ex-wife would be mad. Ji Kai asked the crew to arrive in place and arrange the flight mission in advance, and after completing the relevant procedures, he took a lot of bought gifts and took his parents, daughter, little niece and others on the journey back to China.

After stopping at the Beijing Airport again, Ji Kai did not fly back to Rongcheng directly this time. Instead, he took his family to visit the Great Wall, visited Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City, and watched the national flag-raising ceremony, and finally ate roast duck in Quanjude, and then took a private jet back to Chengdu after a night's rest.

first sent his parents and little niece back to the villa, then put down most of the gifts he bought, rested for the night, and took his daughter on the plane back to Steel City again.

On the plane, Mariana found Ji Kai. This time, she escorted Ji Kai's family back to China with several security personnel.

"Boss, I don't know if it's my delusion, after returning to China this time, I found that there are some people dressed as tourists in the capital and Shuzhou who are following us, but their tracking technology is very good, and personnel changes are more frequent. If I hadn't noticed a person who was following him with a pistol hidden in his clothes, I don't think I would have found it. You see, do we go back to the U.S. early, or do we have more people from the company side come over? ”

Ji Kai heard Mariana's words, pondered for a moment, and asked:

"Based on your experience, do you think that the people who are following and monitoring us are the military's, police, or otherwise, and are they hostile to us?"

Mariana thought back for a moment and said:

"From my point of view, those people must be agents or something, and I met similar people when I was abroad. We didn't find any hostility, so what should we do?"

"It seems that it should be the official people of Huaxia, we have such a large group of people, all of them are from foreign troops, and it is normal for them to monitor it, so don't pay attention to it. ”
