102 Christmas is coming (three more begging for subscription!)
It's time to start preparing for Christmas, so you need to get ready. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Christmas is a very important holiday in the United States, unlike Zhang Hao's Christmas Day in China, when he gave an apple or saw a Christmas tree in the mall, it was Christmas.
Who makes the country have no Christmas atmosphere at all, at most, some young people like to join in the fun.
But it's different in the United States, especially now that Christina is also on the ranch, so naturally you need to prepare a little more.
Lying on the bed, Zhang Hao asked, "Honey, shall we buy a Christmas tree or cut down a tree to dress up ourselves?"
Christina flipped through the books, and spent the whole day going crazy with the tides, or she was teasing the dog and slipping through the waves, that is, she only remembered to read before going to bed.
But before I picked up the book for ten minutes, I heard Zhang Hao's words and immediately came to my senses, "Of course, we will make a Christmas tree by ourselves! Make no mistake, our ranch is on the edge of the forest! If you go to the mall and buy everything, you will lose a lot of fun." Trust me, it doesn't matter if the Christmas tree we make ourselves isn't beautiful enough. ”
He knew that there was no need to worry about the Christmas tree, but Zhang Hao had other questions, so he asked, "Are you going to have midnight mass? We are not believers, but if you want to do midnight mass, I will accompany you to church." ”
Christina thought for a moment, then said, "I'm not going to go to Midnight Mass, but I'm glad to hear your answer." My dear, I'm happy. ”
Zhang Hao grinned, he remembered another thing, something very important, so he continued to ask, "Then how should our Christmas stockings be prepared, should they be placed in the Christmas tree or hung at the head of the bed?"
This is indeed a very important, critical question, quite important.
Because Christmas stockings are meant to be used for gifts, they are children's favorite items, and they will hang their socks next to their beds at night and wait for them to be collected the next morning.
But there are also many families who don't do this, and they will put Christmas stockings under the Christmas tree.
Christina thought for a moment, then made a decision, "I don't think it's better not to put it next to the bed, Xixi is still young now, she definitely won't know where the Christmas stockings are." And I want to enjoy the fun of unpacking gifts together as a family, which will be sweet and happy. ”
Christina's proposal was very good, and Zhang Hao also thought it would be interesting for the whole family to get together to open the gift box. And because Xixi is too small now, this little girl will definitely not understand why she put a Christmas stocking next to the bed.
Zhang Hao gently put Christina on his shoulder, and asked a little curiously, "Honey, what gift did you prepare for me?"
Christina said arrogantly, "It's a secret!"
Zhang Hao didn't give up, and directly held Christina down, with a wicked smile, and asked, "If you don't tell me a satisfactory answer, you will be tortured by me." ”
Christina puffed up her chest proudly and said defiantly, "Haha, I'm not afraid of you, I won't say it!"
The two of them giggled and laughed, and it soon evolved into a large-scale, inappropriate plot for children, but such a thing, that is, the two of them knew about it and enjoyed it.
Christina is still tight-lipped, no matter how provocative Zhang Hao is, she just doesn't speak. As for Zhang Hao, although his physical strength is very good, his self-confidence is bursting, and his physical fitness is getting better and better, it's just that it's really difficult to completely gain the upper hand in such a thing.
What are you talking about, only tired cows!
In the middle of the night, the two of them hugged each other and slept for a sweet night, but there was a little bit of a problem, Christina didn't read the book well, and Zhang Hao didn't figure out some arrangements for Christmas.
But you don't need to worry about these small details, there is still a lot of time.
I'm still planning to sleep lazy, how to do it if I don't sleep lazily in winter, but I can't sleep lazily, the door is knocking early in the morning, and there is a very anxious voice from Xixi outside the door, "Dad, Mommy, the baby can't get in, open the door." ”
"Xiao Hao, open the door! I'm a baby!"
Zhang Hao woke up and hurriedly put on his clothes, Christina was also in a hurry to put on her clothes, and then Zhang Hao jumped out of bed and ran to open the door.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Xixi, and the little girl hugged her father's thigh at once, "Dad, the door won't open." ”
With such a living daughter, don't think about being quiet in the morning, but it's okay, at least the little girl has learned to sleep by herself now, and she doesn't have to stick to her father now.
There was no mess, although it was a bit time-consuming, but the family of three still stepped on the meal and came out.
During the meal, Zhang Hao spoke, "Dad, Mom, it's Christmas soon, just say what Christmas gifts you want." My son's vision of choosing gifts is not very good, if you don't say it, don't blame me if the gift doesn't suit your heart. ”
Zhang Jianye didn't think about it and said, "What kind of gift do I want, I don't want Christmas." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Xiu poked his waist and gave him a look, "Are you stupid or what's wrong! You don't want gifts for others, and you don't want to be ignorant on the first Christmas." ”
It's all in Chinese, so Christina is a little dazed; but Zhang Jianye knows that it was indeed Christmas before, but now it must be celebrated. Not only because it's America and Shio-shio loves festivals, but also because Christina!
Christina basically didn't understand it, because it was all Chinese, and she felt that she had to strengthen her learning Chinese, and she was confident that she would be able to learn better in an environment where she could learn Chinese.
Of course, she also has some expectations, looking forward to Zhang Hao's father being able to learn English well, otherwise it will be more difficult for the family to communicate.
Christina doesn't know much Chinese, but the little girl put down the little spoon, looked at her grandfather and said, "Grandpa is stupid, grandpa is stupid!"
Zhang Jianye wiped his mouth with a smile, and then stood up and went to feed Xixi, although the little girl was doing it herself, but basically she didn't feed it into her mouth.
"Grandpa is a big fool, and we are the smartest in Xixi. Now Grandpa Stupid comes to feed you, you eat obediently, and then we'll go out to play. ”
Xixi opened her mouth wide, and 'Ah-woo' ate a spoonful of rice, and the triumphant little girl took a bite of rice and remembered things again, "Grandpa doesn't go to play, grandpa herds cows." ”
Zhang Jianye laughed all of a sudden, not to mention Zhang Jianye, Zhang Hao and Yu Xiu also laughed, except for Christina, who was a little dazed, she still didn't understand much.
Yu Xiu said with some amusement, "Hear it, your little granddaughter said that you are going to herd cattle." You just have to work hard, go herd the cows, and save more money for your little granddaughter to buy toys. ”
Zhang Hao smiled and explained to Christina, and Christina laughed too, she thought such a morning was funny.
Xixi doesn't know what the adults are laughing at, but she doesn't need to know so much, she just sees everyone laughing, and Xixi laughs too, she is the one who laughs the most.
After eating happily in the morning, Zhang Hao began to get busy.
Carrying the axe and Christina into the mountain, anyway, the house is behind the mountain, and there are trees everywhere, Xixi, the little heel, did not come, she was caught by her grandmother, and she had to stay at home.
But Luo Bo and the white lion and white tiger followed, and these three guys would definitely not be left behind, as for Huahua, he originally wanted to come with him, but he was caught by Xixi, and he had to stay at home to practice flying.
Luo Bo and the others were running happily, Zhang Hao and Christina were holding hands and choosing trees.
Zhang Hao kicked a North American spruce tree with his foot and asked, "How is this tree?" I think it's good, it looks great, it's a bit of a triangular shape." ”
Christina shook her head in denial, "It's too big, we're going to choose a tree that's less than two meters tall and prune it." We need to keep looking, and I'm sure we'll find the tree. ”
A trip to the mall can cost a few dozen dollars to get a Christmas tree quickly, but it takes a lot of time to find it in the mountains, and you may not even be able to find a beautiful cedar tree. But it doesn't matter, because Zhang Hao and Christina care about the process, not necessarily the result.
Although spruce trees can grow up to 60 meters tall and nearly two meters in diameter, all Zhang Hao and Christina need is a small tree. The two of them walked around the mountains all morning, and after careful selection, they finally found a satisfactory tree and cut it down.
With his girlfriend next to him, Zhang Hao of course wanted to show off his strength and ability, and he was indeed praised by Christina. Then the two of them carried the tree home, and after pruning, it was only about one and a half meters high, at most it was a trunk with a thicker bowl mouth, which was completely enough.
The tree was carried back, but the Christmas tree was not finished at all, and it was necessary to buy lanterns and some colorful decorations.
It's not just about decorating the tree, it's about preparing Christmas presents, it's a big project, and it's definitely not an instant decision.
Zhang Hao and Christina ran to Klamath Falls with Xixi again, and they needed to make another big purchase.
Xixi pointed to the pink piggy on the shelf and said, "Daddy, Peppa." ”
Zhang Hao smiled, put on the hat of Xixi's coat, and teased the little girl and said, "Xixi is also a little pig, cute little pig." Let's go look in the mirror, and as soon as Shio puts on his hat, he looks like Paige, and he has a piggy nose. ”
Xixi immediately laughed milkily, the little girl shook her head, held her head with two little hands and said, "I'm also Peppa, I like Peppa the most." ”
Xixi really likes Peppa, that's Xixi's favorite cartoon, no wonder the little girl likes pink pigs, because those pigs are cute Peppa in Xixi's eyes.
Choose Christmas gifts for Xixi, choose Christmas gifts for parents, and naturally Christina's Christmas gifts are indispensable.
So Zhang Hao is still very busy, but he is very happy to be so busy, he likes to prepare Liverpool for his family, and of course he hopes that these gifts can be liked by his family.
