Chapter 155: Meeting
Ju An drove the car to Dinah's house when it was already more than ten o'clock in the morning, and the car had just stopped in the courtyard, Dinah heard the sound and went out of the house, followed by two young ladies who walked out of the house, Ju An had never seen it, judging from the face shape, it should be Dinah's two sisters.
Closing the car door, Ju An walked towards the house, went up the steps, Dinah put her arm around Ju An and introduced Ju An: "Ann, this is my eldest sister Carol, second sister Karen, this is my boyfriend An." After hearing this, Ju An shook hands with the two sisters, and then followed the two into the house.
When I got to the house, I saw that the good guy and two handsome white men I didn't know, one was about thirty years old, holding a small baby in his arms, and the other was a little younger, both of them were sitting on the sofa, Marcos was sitting on the sofa where he often sat and chatting with the two, and when they saw Ju An coming in, everyone stood up, and Marcos followed and said: "Ann, this is Dinah's two brothers-in-law, the eldest brother-in-law Billy, the second brother-in-law James, this is Dinah's boyfriend, Ann." This was followed by another handshake and greetings.
After the greetings, Marcos motioned for Juan to get on the couch, and Carol picked up the baby from Billy's arms on the couch, and the three sisters teased the baby on the side.
Ju An did to observe Dinah's two brothers-in-law on the sofa, from the heart, the two young men are still a little more handsome than Ju An, Billy's black hair and blue eyes, face plate is a bit like a young version of George Clooney, especially Dinah's second brother-in-law James has blonde hair on his head and a small braid on the back of his head, and his lips are full of mustache, full of artistry, perhaps it is the long hours of indoor work that make the two white young men look a little pale, and they look like the lord who often stays up late. Compared with these two guys, Ju'an's characteristics are out, that is, he is strong, mixed up in the ranch for a few months, and with a few daily exercises, his body is getting more and more fit, and now when he lifts his shirt, he can see a piece of neat abdominal muscles.
Sitting on the couch and chatting with Marcos and his two future brothers-in-law, Juan proposed: "It's not too early, let's go to my ranch together."
"Hmmm! I'll grab my stuff and we'll go," Marcos said, patting the armrest of the couch and standing up. Billy and James also stood up, Marcos went to the closet, picked up a small long bag, then walked to the door, put on his coat and stuck the cowboy hat on his head, called Melina, and the two old men went out of the house and walked outside, opened the door of an old green pickup truck outside, threw the long bag, and then got into the car.
Ju An saw that Dinah's brother-in-law and sisters were standing at the door, so he said to Dinah, "Why don't you two sisters and brothers-in-law go, let's go together."
Dinah shook her head and said, "My sister's children are still young, and the farm needs to be taken care of" Hearing this, Ju An said goodbye to the four people under the eaves, took Dinah to his GMC, and started the car to lead the way in front.
When the car drove out of Dinah's farm, Juan said to Dinah, "Billy and James are cool, they are both handsome guys."
Dinah smiled and said, "Young people look cool, but my dad looks a little hippie, so my dad doesn't say it, but in my heart I think it's still your appearance and his aesthetics."
As soon as he slapped the steering wheel, Ju An praised: "In the end, I have life experience, and I know at a glance that I am a good young man."
Dinah, who listened to it, laughed out loud for a moment, and finally almost had a pain in her stomach, and said while laughing: "Aren't Chinese all very modest, why are you so thick-skinned."
"Of course, the Chinese are modest in China, and when they go to the United States to adapt to American life, their skin becomes thicker, in the past, in China, when others praised me, I would be embarrassed to say where and where, when people praised me here, I immediately puffed up my chest and said thank you!" Thank you! After saying that, he first twisted his seat, then straightened his chest, raised his head, and made a proud gesture. Dinah was amused again when she saw Ju An's tricks.
After seeing Dinah laugh, Ju'an asked Dinah: "How do I think Marcos's car is so old, it is estimated that it is twenty or thirty years old, and the whole front of the car is like the old Chinese liberation truck I saw when I was a child, with a round engine hood."
Dinah thought for a moment and replied, "It's been more than 30 years, I bought it when I was my grandfather, and I always drove it, and I wanted my father to get a new car, but my father would be proud to say that he relied on this car to pay for the college tuition of his three daughters."
"Then this is also an antique car, look at the potholes and green paint, what if the fire stops on half of the road," Ju An asked, and then asked: "How did I hear in China that the children here in the United States all work to pay for their tuition, why does Marcos pay for your tuition?" ”。
Dinah said: "Don't look at his appearance is very old, many things in it have been replaced, my father thinks it is commemorative, my grandfather drove this car to teach my father to drive, after my grandfather died, my father drove it has not been changed, in fact, the cost of repairing it can be replaced by two new cars" After speaking, he looked at Ju An and explained: "As long as you have the ability, parents will pay their children's tuition, and the situation you said is that parents will not be able to pay the tuition fees before letting their children take out loans, and then let the children work and slowly repay, Some parents will even sell their houses to send their children to college, and the good high schools here are generally close to the rich areas, and some less wealthy parents will work several jobs in order to let their children enjoy a good education, and then go to the rich area to buy the smallest house to live in, just so that their children can enjoy that kind of education."
Ju An shook his head and said: "In this way, American parents are similar to Chinese parents, and they all hope that their sons will be the same.
"When I was in elementary school, I really had a lot of fun and no pressure, but in high school, it was very hard, I had a big stack of books in my hands every day at school, and I had to do a lot of exercises every day, and it was normal to stay up late if I wanted to go to a better university," Dinah said, shaking her head.
Nima, a lot of newspapers in this country are really, the American school students introduced are herding sheep all day long, and Ju'an always envied the American devils when he was in high school, and he played all day in college, and his buddies were mixed in the sea of questions all day long, and he had to take the college entrance examination, it turned out that they were similar to buddies, and now his heart is balanced.
While listening happily to Dinah telling her about the hardships of high school, while driving the car, Ju An soon took Marcos's car into the gate of his ranch, and when he stopped in front of the house, his father and mother had already left the house and walked towards the side of the car, Ju An hurriedly got out of the car.
As soon as the four old people met, Ju An introduced the four people to each other, and when the two pairs of parents shook hands, everyone entered the house together, Marcos and his wife have seen most of the naughty bags in the house, but they have not seen the two brothers Da Jin and Xiao Jin, and when everyone sat down on the sofa, Ju An went to the kitchen to make tea and coffee for a few people, Dinah also followed in and started to fight, Ju An saw Dinah come in and said: "What are you doing when you come in, do a translation for a few old people outside."
Dinah said with a smile: "My mother can speak Chinese, not only can speak but also write, unlike my Chinese can only speak a little, I can't write, my grandfather taught me when I was a child."
Ju An listened to this before he relaxed, made tea, brewed coffee, Dina walked into the living room with a tray, and when she arrived in the living room, sure enough, Melina spoke Chinese, but the accent was a little strange, not difficult to understand, much more fluent than Dinah, was chatting with Ju'an's parents while translating to Marcos, and then translating Marcos's words to Juan's parents, although the four old people spoke a little slowly, but the atmosphere was still full of harmony.
Ju An secretly thanked God Buddha or something Mantian God Buddha, this guy fortunately found a Chinese descent who can speak Chinese, how much trouble this guy saved.
A few people chatted for a while, Mom got up to make lunch, Melina also stood up, and went to the kitchen together, Dinah and Juan accompanied Ju'an's father and Marcos as translators, Dad and Marcos chatted about the topic, is around these animals at home, focusing on his favorite big gold and small gold two ruffian brothers, obviously Marcos is also more interested in the golden eagle, it seems that loving birds of prey is a common problem of men, Ju An translated Marcos's words to Dad, Dinah translated her father's words to Marcos and became a microphone for the two old men.
When it was time to call for lunch to start, when I arrived at the table, I saw that the good guy had a whole table of Chinese food.
Ju An asked worriedly, "Do you want to make a steak or something?" Some are afraid that Marcos will not be accustomed to authentic Chinese food.
Melina said with a smile: "Marcos has no problem eating Chinese food, when I used to be in college, I used to eat Chinese food seven or eight times a week, but after we got married, we ate more, and our family basically ate Chinese food for one-third of the time every month, so don't worry."
After hearing this, Ju An was relieved. The two families chatted quietly around the table while eating, which is a bit of a Chinese habit, listening to Melina's introduction, Ju An knew that Dinah's mother was surnamed Mei, and her name was Lina, but after getting married, Marcos's surname was hung directly behind the name.
After eating happily, the two families had eaten on the sofa, Ju An took out his rifle from the gun cabinet, and took Marcos, his father, and Dinah to go out to hunt deer.
