The evening menu was hearty, with tender and delicious mushroom soup, delicious mushroom gratin, creamy mushrooms, and mushroom lamb chops.
On the TV, the award ceremony for this year's MTV Video Music Awards in the United States began to be played, and due to the time difference, it was played in a delay. But a few people didn't care much about the awards, just enjoyed the audio-visual feast.
As the vane of global music, the United States has produced many high-quality songs, with Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, Magic Red, Katie Peri, Avril Lavigne and others all giving wonderful performances.
Pete, who admired this popular style, stood up and walked outside the door to light a cigarette. He leaned against the doorpost, looking at the darkness in the distance, slowly swallowing the clouds and spitting out the fog.
At this time, the night sky is very dark, the moon is obscured by dark clouds, the stars in the sky are not visible, a few frogs chirping, a little dog barking, and the night of the pasture is quiet and serene.
"What are you thinking about so contemplatively?" Wang Hao saw that he was a little lonely, and couldn't help asking.
Pete flicked the cigarette ash and said with emotion, "I was married once and have a beautiful daughter. But she moved to Miami with her mom, and I haven't seen her in a long time, and today is her eighth birthday. β
"You should see her on video, she is definitely looking forward to her father's blessing." Wang Hao frowned, he never thought that the prodigal Pete would have a daughter.
"You see, this is what she was like when she was a child, when she rode with me every day, pulled my beard, and died of naughtyness!" There was a nostalgic happiness in his eyes, and on top of his old mobile phone screen was a little girl laughing with missing front teeth, brown hair and smart eyes, and a little freckles that looked a little naughty and cheerful.
Pete is a storyteller, he looks at the screensaver kindly and lovingly, a little lonely and longing. I haven't seen each other for several years, and I don't know if the toothless little girl who loves to laugh has a bright face, and I don't know if she still remembers her father who was a cowboy. He took a deep breath of his cigarette and threw it on the ground to crush it with his foot.
"Pete, what time is it in Miami?" Wang Hao decided to help him, no matter what, if he can't go to Miami, he can at least send blessings from the video, as a father, he can't disappear from her upbringing.
Without hesitation, he replied, "It's seven o'clock in the evening on our side, and it's just five o'clock in the morning on the Miami side." β
Pete doesn't need to calculate at all to know what the jet lag is, and he must have been silently paying attention to it all the time. He shrugged his shoulders, picked up the cigarette butt on the ground and threw it into the trash can not far away: "Boss, do you want to drink in Thortown?" β
"I checked it on my phone just now, and Miami is a little later than here, which means that your daughter's birthday has just begun! You should send a birthday greeting when they wake up! Let's go, do you have her social accounts? Anything on Facebook or Skype, or record a video for your daughter! β
"What video are you going to record?" Neil suddenly looked up from the sofa with a puzzled expression: "Do you want to shoot a promotional video for our ranch to promote beef cattle or something?" β
Wang Hao glared at him, and said angrily: "Your game character is dead, let's start the next game!" β
Neil looked down at his PSP and let out a wail, just after a distraction, he was knocked out. He simply put the PSP down, glanced at Pete's silent appearance with concern, and asked Wang Hao, "What is the matter?" Speak up and help out! β
Luna and Leonard also shifted their attention to Wang Hao, which made him a little embarrassed. Since they have worked together for so long and haven't heard Pete talk about his marriage or his daughter, it proves that he doesn't want to be known, this is his **. Wang Hao felt that he should help protect his **, so he hesitated.
Pete exhaled and said in a nonchalant tone, "Today is my daughter Catherine's eighth birthday, and the boss wants me to record a birthday video." He didn't think it was a secret, and it was easier to say it.
"Oh my God, you actually have a daughter?" Luna looked incredulous, and she let out a direct exclamation.
Speaking of his daughter, Pete's whole body melted, and he recalled with a smile: "She was my angel, and every time I came home and saw her smile, I would be happy for a long time." I often took her to the ranch to help, and as a result, she rode around on an emu, which frightened me. I'm going to look for the photos on your phone, all of them were taken at the beginning. It's a pity that this kind of phone can't export photos, otherwise it can be placed in the computer. β
A group of people leaned together, sticking their heads to look at Pete's rather old mobile phone, and on the polished screen, you could still feel the joy of the girl swinging, the happiness of hugging the alpaca's neck tightly, and the joy of chasing butterflies on the grassland with her bare feet in a dress.
It was as if Catherine was the elf of the ranch, feeding kangaroos, carrying koalas in her arms, riding emus, chasing sheepdogs, and several people were crazy. In several of the photos, Pete is holding Catherine or riding a horse with her, and the two of them look very loving.
Luna's eyes moistened slightly, and she began to choke. The photos are almost the same as when she was a child, she also had a cowboy father, she also grew up on a ranch and grew up with animals.
"I didn't expect you to be quite handsome when you shaved your beard! Why do you have such a deep beard now, when others think you are forty or fifty years old, so sloppy. Neil's focus was really different, and the words he came out of the picture left everyone speechless.
In Chinese, there are too many idioms to describe beautiful women, such as sinking fish and falling geese, falling into the country, closing the moon and embarrassing flowers, and so on. There is a lack of words to describe girls in English, and knowing how to praise girls at the right time is really a must for every man.
Geous and pretty, beautiful both mean beautiful, but Cheng dΓΉ may be a little higher than pretty and beautiful, the beautiful girl is called hottie, and the cute girl is called cutie. These are the words that are repeated over and over again, and they are used quite frequently.
"You must send a blessing to Catherine, you are her father, she can't live without you." Luna's eyes were red, and her tone was a little agitated. She seems to have put herself in the role of Catherine, longing for fatherly love and care.
Pete seemed to have made a difficult decision, he nodded heavily, then ran upstairs and said, "Let me go and hang up my beard and change my clothes first!" β
After a while, a new version of Pete appeared in front of everyone, and without that eye-catching beard, Pete was also a mature and charming uncle, full of manliness. He sat in front of the computer with some trepidation, skillfully clicked into the space, pointed to the above video and said: "Actually, I often pay attention to her, this is a video of her when she was in school, and her mother put it in her own space, I really hope I can always accompany her!" β
When I opened the video, a little foreign girl appeared on the computer, she was draped with brown and yellow hair, blue eyes, long eyelashes, a small face like an apple, wearing a light blue dress, and a pair of red leather shoes. She winked mischievously and smiled kindly at the camera, and she smiled with two small dimples on her face, and the corners of her mouth turned upward, like a doll. A pair of watery blue eyes blinked, and she was wearing a light blue dress, she carried a small black schoolbag behind her, threw a flying kiss at the camera, and ran into the school gate one by one.
