Chapter 356: A New Journey
Now that the good news has been confirmed, Shi Lei sent Laura to the island, and after a thousand instructions, he quickly called his parents and the four elders of Colin and Emily one by one, and then very wisely, took the mobile phone away from his ears.
After the voices of the elders finally calmed down, Shi Lei described everything that happened. When Shi Lei walked back to the stone ranch, Colin and Emily drove their car to the main house, which shows how anxious they were.
"Where's Laura?" Emily asked hurriedly.
"Just sent her to her studio. She insisted on doing it, and I couldn't persuade her. Shi Lei spread out his hand and said helplessly.
"Nonsense. I'm going to go and pull her back. After Emily finished speaking, she didn't give Shi Lei a chance to continue explaining. After throwing Colin down, he got into the car and hurried to the other side of the island.
Colin glanced at Shi Lei a little helplessly, and saw that Shi Lei also looked at him with some tears and laughter, the two looked at each other and smiled, and went to the house to wait together. Shi Lei's parents must also be on the way here, and Laura wants to do this job well.
"How does it feel?" Colin asked softly as he walked in with Shi Lei.
"Very nervous, very nervous, and very happy and happy." Shi Lei said with certainty, the happy look on his face, Colin saw it clearly. After nodding secretly, Colin patted Shi Lei on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement.
"When Emily had Laura, I felt very similar to you now." Colin chuckled with some reminiscence.
After a while, Laura was also pulled back by Emily, and was chatting with Emily in the living room at this time. Emily couldn't rest assured, and was carefully asking Laura how she felt, if there was anything uncomfortable, and as a passerby, she carefully told Laura.
Shi Lei and Colin are two big men. There was no chance to interject at all.,Just a bunch of two people.,Talking about the self-cultivation of the husband who is a pregnant woman.。 In fact, the content also revolves around Laura, the expectant mother.
And without Shi Lei's expectations, his father and mother also rushed over. After arriving, it was the same as Colin and Emily. Dad came together to teach Shi Lei a lesson, and Mom went to tell Emily all the things she said again, which shows that the mothers all over the world are actually the same mentality and practices.
Naturally, the four elders did not go back on this day, and all stayed on the ranch side, and they also stayed on the ranch side at night. Later, I didn't keep talking about Laura's pregnancy, and I picked up some light topics to talk about as much as possible. I don't know if it's relieving Laura. The tension of this party is still soothed by their own.
The four elders have lived here for several days in a row, Shi Lei can't be said to be in dire straits these days, anyway, the situation is not very good.
Although Shi Lei doesn't have to do the cooking, because the two mothers dislike him for not having enough level, and they are afraid that he doesn't know what to add to the pregnant woman, and it is not suitable to make it.
The two mothers are in charge of the spoon themselves, and Shi Lei's task is basically one left, that is, to be trained. And it's in turns. Changing tricks of training.
The two mothers here have just finished counting Shi Lei, and the two fathers over there dislike Shi Lei for not being diligent enough. I don't know how to take good care of Laura, and I'm a little at a loss for Shi Lei.
In the end, with Laura, who was also overcared for, hid in the master bedroom to hide quietly. Although several elders did not threaten Shi Lei with their eyes. But for Laura's face, I can't say anything about Shi Lei's scoundrel approach.
After a few days, each of the four elders had their own things to do. The situation has also stabilized. also understood that he was making a big fuss, so after a thousand instructions, they returned to their own lives. Shi Lei and Laura both have a feeling of the aftermath of the catastrophe.
After sending off the four elders, Shi Lei and Laura's lives returned to their original rhythm. It's just that Shi Lei has to pay more attention to Laura's situation in life, and he has to pay more attention to reasonable matching in cooking and other aspects to meet Laura's nutritional needs at this stage.
At Laura's insistence, Shi Lei and Laura set off for Los Angeles on this day. To be precise, the goal is to bring a lot of glory to the Stone Ranch and now the Mars Horse Farm, and it can be regarded as the two thoroughbred horses under Shi Lei, and the place where the road to glory was opened, that is, the Santa Janita Racecourse.
This is the annual race of St. Janitard, a horse-drawn carriage. For the standard Quarter Horse Race, it is a big race on par with the Quarter Horse World Cup.
And compared to the Quartma World Cup, this Santa Janita derby is not only a top-level event, but also a relatively higher-level North American light carriage race. The winner of the Derby is eligible to enter the highest race in North America, along with other champion horses.
Mars Racecourse's Mars Quarter horse Huang Zhong and jockey Lusimon were all involved in the race. I don't know if it was because of the great reputation of Mars Racecourse, they were invited to participate in a quarter-mile race, which was of course a qualifier for the Derby race.
The combination of Lusimon and Huang Zhong easily qualified as the first in the group and entered the main match of the German competition, which is also the final stage.
Regarding the fact that Laura also came to watch the battle, Shi Lei was opposed. However, when Laura insisted, Shi Lei had nothing to do. And with his own presence, he should be able to ensure that Laura's condition is normal.
However, in order to ensure that this trip was indeed possible, Shi Lei directly called a private doctor he had just found. This is an authoritative expert in pregnancy and obstetrics, and when Laura gave birth, she asked this aunt to do it herself. After receiving a positive answer from the private doctor, Shi Lei had no reason to continue to object to Laura's attendance.
The competition site is already a little full, fortunately, Shi Lei and Laura's seats have been booked a long time ago, don't forget that Shi Lei has long been a member of the Santa Janita Racecourse, and you can choose your seat directly online.
Of course, Shi Lei chose a VIP seat that was relatively clean and had a wider field of vision. Squeezed together with others, Shi Lei was worried that it would cause some insecurity to Laura's side. Simply with them, of course. As a horse owner who is famous in the world of horse racing, it is no problem to get a VIP seat.
The number of fans of the light driving carriage race on the side of Midi has shown a downward trend. Because this competition is relatively speaking, the mass base is poorer, and the conditions for participation are slightly more. Unlike horse racing or horseback riding, a horse can be left in an open space.
A horse-drawn carriage requires a relatively large and flat open space to be able to drive, and of course you need to have a carriage. However, this race is actually more fun than just horse racing. So as long as you like this sport, you are basically a die-hard fan of it.
For this race, the racecourse came up with the widest track. Of course, this competition is actually divided into two parts: grass race and clay court race. And there's also an eighth-mile and quarter-mile format. Naturally, the prize money is also different, because the effort put in by the horse and the jockey is also different.
Shi Lei's horses are naturally racing for the highest prize money in the quarter-mile dirt. The quarter mile, as the name suggests, is all there is to it. That's about 400 meters away.
This is also where the name Quartma comes from, which means quarter mile. This is because the Quarter horse is the most explosive at this distance, outpacing other horses and capable of running at ultra-high speeds of up to 55 miles per hour. Hence the name.
The participants in this race are all powerful quarthorses, which are in the range of their fastest speeds, and it is conceivable that this race will be very intense.
And the schedule is relatively short. It is bound to further narrow the gap between them. It's not like the tail race of the Triple Crown, with a long schedule and a gap between the horses. Sometimes it can be pulled very open.
In this case, there are a lot of highlights, and it may be that the horse race was leading a moment ago. The next moment, I was pulled down. Such a fiery competitive atmosphere. That's why this event captured so much. A big reason for loyal fans too. It's like it's most prevalent on the side of Midi. Quarter-mile straight-line acceleration racing, like this, wants this hot scene.
More than a dozen horse-drawn carriages participating in the race lined up at the starting line. After the start of the race, each of them flicked his whip vigorously, and many of the horses began to work in unison, gradually bringing up the speed of the carriage.
Shi Lei and Laura also watched the situation in the field nervously. This sprint is a test of the jockey's immediate judgment, as even the strongest horses can be left behind if you hesitate.
Because of the storage of carriages, it is more difficult to overtake than ordinary racehorses. Even a certain amount of contact is possible. This requires the jockey to make timely judgments and cooperate well with his own racehorse.
Huang Zhong, under the control of Lu Simon, had already begun to accelerate bravely at the beginning of the game, trying to break out of the encirclement as much as possible. However, the Martian Racecourse is now famous, and the surrounding opponents do not have any contempt for this newcomer who has not participated in any events before.
The jockeys on both sides began to get close to Lusimon, intentionally or unintentionally, to the point where they could see the pores on each other's faces.
Lu Simon could only carefully steer Huang Zhong and correct his direction. Because in this race, although there will be occasional carriages touching each other, if you take the initiative to touch someone else, it is a different matter.
In the worst case, it is possible to be directly punished from the race, or even banned for life, because there are people with bad intentions, after the horse race speeds up, maliciously hit others, resulting in the tragedy of car crash and death.
Because this kind of contact is definitely going to hinder the speed of others, so those who actively contact others will be punished with a penalty of seconds. Depending on the danger you cause, increase your completion time.
That's why, Lusimon has to be careful. Because the jockeys on both sides were working together to compress his space, setting up a pocket formation that forced Lusimon to make a mistake and crash into their carriage. (To be continued......) R1292
