Chapter Seventy-Eight: Beautifying the Environment (Happy Festival)

Today's dinner was very hearty again, this time it was for my brother-in-law Zhang Wei's practice, so the family drank a little wine together, and of course Guoguo drank juice.

The next day, Shi Lei drove his sister's family to Los Angeles International Airport. The brother-in-law needs to leave by plane, and the sister and Guoguo are of course going to see off the brother-in-law.

However, Shi Lei didn't let go of his brother-in-law and left, because he still had to check in many of his brother-in-law's luggage, all kinds of things that his sister asked his brother-in-law to bring back first, bags, cosmetics, and clothes, all of which were bought from Midi's major stores.

There are a lot of things for my sister's family, of course, there are also all kinds of things for my sister's colleagues, and my sister even made up for some deficiencies in the duty-free shop at the airport, and then watched with peace of mind that my brother-in-law was almost buried by a lot of luggage.

After Shi Lei silently sent his blessings to his brother-in-law in his heart, he hurriedly pulled Guoguo and ran to the car to wait first, saving his sister a lot of things for Shi Lei to take.

However, Shi Lei's worries did not come true, because the duty-free shop at the airport can only give duty-free to those who get on the plane, and my sister has not returned to China yet, so there is no duty-free discount.

On the way back to the ranch, Guoguo's rare feelings were a little lower, and it seemed that he was still a little sad about his father's departure, but this sadness did not last long.

As soon as he returned to the ranch and received the call of the bears and children in the ranch, Guoguo immediately became happy, and soon played with them crazy, and from time to time you could hear their laughter and laughter, and even screams of joy (it was indeed happy, I don't understand that the children always screamed for Mao when they were happy).

Seeing that Shi Lei was back, Shi Yi planned to continue to catch Shi Lei's strong man and let Shi Lei take him to the nearest flower and herb market to have a look.

Shi Yi plans to start his own great cause of transforming the ranch environment now, at least to transform the area around the main house into a beautiful garden, and then the goal is the artificial lake on the top of the mountain.

It has now completely become the territory of the sea eagles Xiao Jin and Xiao Yin, and without Zhang Wei being accompanied by people who also like fishing, Shi Yi is a little bored to go fishing alone.

As for playing with guns, Shi Yi is not particularly interested, and generally only when Shi Lei goes to practice guns, he will think about playing with him.

Of course, my father would occasionally go horseback riding, and he planned to spend most of the rest of his time planting flowers and grass.

And my mother also specially instructed Shi Lei, let him go out this time to buy some poultry, chickens, ducks and geese, my mother plans to cultivate some real free-range grass chickens in Shi Lei's yard, ducks and geese in the water or something, these things are delicious and good things for my mother.

Well, anyway, Shi Lei feels that his foodie talent must be inherited from his mother, and no one in his family seems to object to this, including his mother herself.

My sister will stay with Laura now when she is free, usually to ask Laura how to match clothes, because simple clothes will become different after Laura's matching.

Laura randomly selected a few pieces of her sister's clothes for her sister to match, which made her sister's temperament change, and there was a feeling of transformation and sublimation.

It is said that her sister is now waiting for Laura to design her a dress that will make her blind, although the sister herself claims to be helping Laura revise her work.

Thinking about it, Laura should not design a dress for the old lady that looks like it is pasted with gold sheets to flash the blind, and Shi Lei will let her go.

Of course, Shi Lei didn't dare to care, because they still had the support of their mother behind them, the reason, it was obvious that her mother also wanted to get a work specially designed for her from Laura.

After all, my mother is still not confident enough in her figure, although after coming to Midi, I have seen many more heavyweight Cun Zài than her.

In fact, Shi Lei is still a little happy to see it, this should also be regarded as Laura's overture to her future mother-in-law and sister-in-law, and it seems that she is obviously very successful in quickly narrowing the distance between her and these two women.

Who makes a woman not love beauty, starting from this aspect, not only gives full play to Laura's own advantages, but also maximizes her preferences.

Filling up the pickup with gas, Shi Lei set off again with his father. Shi Lei went to see the flower market here in Santa Barbara last time, so this time he is familiar with the road.

I accompanied my dad to carefully shop and select suitable plants, and finally under my father's careful selection, I finally selected three potted plants and some bamboo seedlings.

These were to be planted around the main house, and in my father's words, "I would rather eat without meat than without bamboo." No meat makes people thin, and no bamboo makes people vulgar (of course, this is actually what Comrade Su Dongpo said). ”

Shi Lei's main room is well designed, quite Zen, especially the Zen room, facing a delicate Japanese courtyard, it is really a good place to drink tea, but unfortunately Shi Lei wasted it and turned it into a training ground.

And that yard also has a fly in the ointment, that is, there are plums, orchids, chrysanthemums and pines, and there are rockeries and flowing water, but there is a lack of some tall bamboo, which seems to be lacking in some unearthly temperament, and now my father plans to make up for such shortcomings.

As for the chickens, ducks and geese that I promised to bring to my mother, because it took some time to go around with my father, I had to ask Hanks, who was more familiar with these things, to help him purchase a batch of good quality pups.

Although Shi Lei is not very optimistic about the future stocking life of these poultry, I don't know how many wild animals will be cheap pastures, and I don't know how many can be left after they can fall into their mouths, but at least we have to ensure that they can grow up normally and not die before they are released.

I believe that with Hanks's meticulousness and familiarity with the surrounding relevant markets, he will definitely be able to bring back the best quality pups.

Shi Lei's trust in Hanks is not unfounded, but has been accumulated after many big and small things.

But what the result is, Shi Lei can't see it now, when it is arranged for Hanks, the time is not early, and Hanks also said that he will bring back suitable seedlings at least tomorrow, and he will personally select the suitable ones to bring back to the pasture.

After returning to the ranch, Shi Lei and his father Shi Yi did not rest, and after telling her mother that Hanks would bring her back the poultry seedlings she wanted, Shi Lei quickly brought tools to help her father plant these things.

Of course, Shi Lei is mainly responsible for the heavy work of digging pits and digging soil. According to his father's words, Shi Lei in the past was a typical lazy person who was not diligent and did not distinguish between grains and grains, and he was not good at any other work except eating.

Therefore, the details of the specific planting are grasped by the father, Shi Lei only needs to be responsible for working hard, who makes him a standard strong guy now, or a first-class domineering pure man who can stand on his fists and run a horse on his arm.

With Shi Lei's help, Dad's planting business is going very fast, but Shi Lei is digging pits or something too fast, and Dad's habits of various plants are very familiar, so things are progressing very quickly.

After finishing the work, Shi Lei and his father washed well before sitting at the table, Shi Lei routinely emptied the leftovers on the table, poured the vegetable soup into the dogs' food bowls, and then cleaned up the dining table and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

Shi Lei has been doing this since his family came, and in this way, it has liberated Laura.

Laura said several times that she should be in charge of washing the dishes and chopsticks, but she was vetoed by her mother, who was distressed about her future daughter-in-law, and then strongly arranged for Shi Lei to hurry up and get the job done.

Back in the bedroom at night, Shi Lei first made out with Laura, and then went to take a careful mandarin duck bath, Shi Lei hugged Laura and lay on the bed together.

Shi Lei feels that he has not taken enough care of Laura recently, after all, after the family came, more energy was put into taking care of the family, which was definitely not as sweet as when the two of them lived their own small lives.

"Honey, I feel like I've been snubbing you a little lately, and it's my fault. But as you can see, the family is coming, and I will definitely spend more time with them, I hope you can understand. Shi Lei said to Laura sincerely.

"Well, stone, I understand. After all, you have been separated from your family for a long time, and you should spend time with them. Besides, they haven't been here for a long time, so you should cherish this opportunity.

We're going to be living together for a long time, and they're my family, aren't they? You don't have to worry about that. Laura was very understanding and persuaded Shi Lei.

"If only you could understand. You know that Chinese people attach great importance to family affection, and they will return to China in about 3 weeks, and I don't know when they will come next time.

But you don't need to be with us all the time during this time, you can implement it now if you have any plans.

Of course, I'm certainly not trying to get rid of you, but I don't think there's any need to delay your work. After all, you've been with us for so long, and I'm afraid you'll get bored because you don't have anything to do on your own. ”

Shi Lei remembered that Laura asked her about her plans when she graduated, and she still had some ideas about work.

"It's okay, in fact, I've been doing something very important lately, which is to design and make a piece of clothing for your mother and sister.

I had already prepared the materials, so I used the same batch of silks and dyed fabrics that I brought back from the capital of China last time. It's just that the current style is still being modified, but I already have a clear idea.

When I first met them, I had the idea of designing a set of clothes for them, but I had been traveling a lot, and now I have just started to settle down, so the design work is not yet complete.

The remaining three weeks are just enough time for me to make these two tailor-made clothes for them, and I can modify them at any time according to their own opinions.

So, this time will be more fulfilling for me, and you don't have to worry about me at all. I'm looking forward to the effect of these two works. Especially when the people closest to me are wearing clothes that I design, I feel a sense of accomplishment. Laura happily explained.

"Since you have something to do and your own plans, then follow your ideas. When you want to go out to work or start your own business, just tell me, and I will definitely support you. Shi Lei said affirmatively.

"Well, I know you're definitely going to be my strongest back. Well, I love you, good night. Laura said and gave Shi Lei a goodnight kiss.

"I love you too, good night." Shi Lei also gave Laura a goodnight kiss.

Ever since Shi Lei read an article that said that an elderly couple would do this every day to ensure that the last words they heard in their lives must be "I love you", then Shi Lei has had such a habit.
