Chapter 245: Father-to-be's Preparation

The Spring Festival has passed, and this is the United States after all, so there is no way to feel more of the atmosphere of the Spring Festival at this time; Maybe there may be some atmosphere in some Chinatowns, but in Abilene Town, the Chinese here are Wei Da and Wang Ye, and they do go to each other to pay New Year's greetings, and that's it.

But soon Wei Da and they will start to get busy, because the baby's gift party is about to start, and Wei Da and they are now busy with this matter. It's a big deal, and Angela cares a lot; Although she knew that the family had money and didn't care about the price of those gifts, it was a blessing, and of course she cared about it. It was also at this time that they began to make more preparations for the arrival of the little ones.

As for prenatal training, Wei Da and Wang Ye are actually conscientious, don't look at them complaining, but this matter is still very serious. Because they are first-time fathers and have no experience in taking care of children, they will be more serious about preparing for these things, and they will take good care of the baby.

Learn how to hold a child, learn the skills of coaxing a child, and also include some small knowledge to observe the child's growth; Diaper change or something is already very proficient for two people. They stood in front of the operating table again and again, and under the guidance of those nursery teachers, they skillfully changed diapers with baby models.

"I suddenly felt like I still had a little bit of a sense of accomplishment now." Wang Ye and Wei Da walked down proudly, there are many expectant fathers and mothers-to-be here, and they are starting classes collectively. So a lot of pot-bellied mothers-in-law are sitting together, and there are also a lot of fathers-to-be who are also learning.

"I also have a great sense of accomplishment, not to mention those fathers-to-be. Even those expectant mothers are not necessarily more hands-on than us. We're all smart people, and we're doing very, very good! Angela has told me several times that she still doesn't have much experience with changing diapers now, and she's clumsy. "Wei Da is triumphant, he is full of pride, and his intelligence and hands-on ability are now his new labels.

"In the past, I thought there might still be some pressure, for example, if the baby pulled. That's disgusting. But now that I think about it, that's actually the case, after all, it's still my own baby, so I don't think it's disgusting at all. I'm in a good state of mind right now. The two people who thought they had graduated from the school started chatting, Wang Ye was very proud, he felt that he had now completely entered the position.

"I also have this worry, I really have a pimple in my heart. But now I don't care anymore. The baby is just born and does not understand. You can't expect him to go to the bathroom, or what would you want us fathers to do?! We're here to teach our babies, we're here to watch them grow. I don't think I care, even if my baby poops like a little artilleryman, it doesn't matter, it's just a diaper change anyway! After slapping his hands with Wang Ye, Wei Da can be said to be in high spirits, because the baby's due date is getting closer and closer, and he is about to upgrade. It's no longer an expectant father, but a real father!

I can almost graduate from the prenatal training course. Wei Da, who had learned a practical skill, was very happy; When I got home, I started to get busy again, although this guy is a lazy person in his bones, but he also has to divide things. He was happy to do these things now, and he didn't find it troublesome at all; With a small tent and tables and chairs on the lawn, Wei Da, who is humming a song, even makes people feel a little abnormal, because he usually hums and chirps when doing things, and he is definitely lazy if he can be lazy.

Generally speaking, the arrangement of the gift show in the United States is also exquisite, if the physical examination checks the gender of the baby, then the boy is blue, and the girl is pink; As for those who did not check the gender of the baby in advance, it was yellow, which would also make the guests know what to say and not make a small mistake that made people laugh bitterly.

"Boss Wei, this is wrong. You're paying tens or hundreds of dollars a minute, and you're doing odd jobs at home. It's better to lie on the sofa and be comfortable, if you can't do it, just move a stool out and bask in the sun, or tease the two silly birds in your house. This is in line with your identity, the rich man flying eagle. Wang Ye was idle and bored and began to make fun of Wei Da again, he now likes to talk about the two uncompetitive golden eagles in Wei Da's house, just like Wei Da likes to attack his family's stupid Wangcai.

"Go, go, go!" glanced at Wang Ye angrily, this guy should come over to help when he saw a little eyesight, instead of sitting on the lawn and teasing the stupid bulldog, "I don't know how expensive the labor costs of Americans are, do you understand the thrifty housekeeper!" Dude, I'm going to have a child soon, this has to do a lot of things, otherwise how to set an example for my children in the future! ”

Wang Ye laughed and didn't speak, let alone come up to help; Wei Da's guy is in good health, so he can't be tired of doing these things at all, Wei Da's guy is a lazy bone, let him do more things now, such things are rare, it's better to let Wei Da stretch his muscles and bones by himself.

As for the labor cost in the United States, this is indeed relatively expensive, and in fact, there is no need to invite too many people at home, and if you can do it yourself, you can do it yourself. In fact, the family also hired two part-time workers, otherwise it would be difficult for Wei Da's mother to clean such a large room, so it would be good to hire an hourly worker twice a week. As for mowing the lawn or some small things, Wei Da or his father will do it, anyway, it's not that it won't.

Wei Da and Wang Ye felt that many beautiful men were actually forced to do it because the labor cost was too expensive, so it was really depressing if they didn't know how to do it, otherwise the cost was really not small. In fact, it is not a simple thing to make some money, it is better to save a little if you can save a little, and spend the money in a useful place, so that it is the best.

Wei Da, who was humming a song, clapped his hands with satisfaction, he was still very satisfied with his arrangement, he felt that this was actually very good, and he didn't need to worry about any shortcomings at all. A baby's shower is just a party for friends and family. So it doesn't need to be so formal, a little arrangement is almost enough. The decoration is lively, and the drink is lively. It's just a fun time, and as for more things, then you need to see what the actual situation is like at the time of the party.

In fact, there are still some things to prepare for such a party, although Lao Mei doesn't like to make too much food during the party; But some drinks and drinks definitely need to be prepared, and there must be some snacks for children, after all, it is a baby shower, so some people will bring their children over to join in the fun.

Americans often have cake at a party. Wei Da and his family can be regarded as following the local customs, and it is not very convenient to get a braised pork and chopped pepper fish head; Wei Da is not afraid to invite people to dinner, but the main thing about parties is convenience. A few cakes and pastries, plus some simple buffets, are almost enough, and there is no need to put many dishes.

"My brewery also brewed a little bit of wine, so I asked them to bring me a little bit. All the best beers selected. It's much better than the average beer on the market. It should be there in the afternoon, and we'll try it first. Let me tell you, my wine should be very good, and I have picked the seeds now, and the quality of the beer will definitely be able to improve this year. Laughing and putting down Wang Ye's dog Wangcai, Wei Da felt very interesting to see this silly and bitterly smiling guy getting up.

"Your winery estimates that this year's wine is also average, and it will take a year to select the seeds. The trial is this year, right? Then next year, or the year after, the quality of the beer will come up thoroughly. That is, your kid's family has a big business. It's all about having a brewery, it's such an exaggeration. I think our winery is similar, it takes at least three or four years to produce a stable and high-quality wine production. Wang Ye also knows these things, although it takes three or four years to achieve complete results, but the long-term investment is also worth it.

"I can't say that, although it takes three or four years to produce the best wine. But you may need a little investment in the first year, and then you can slowly start to make some money; I think I'll be able to earn a little bit next year, but the more I earn in the future. Wei Da felt that Wang Ye was wrong, although it is now a trial or something, but the payback cycle is definitely not so long.

Of course, Wang Ye also knows this, but he thinks that the ranch seems to have a longer cycle to recover costs; Because the grapes are the same crop in a year, it takes more time to get high-quality grapes. And the grass and the like are very good, and if the climate is slightly suitable, then the grass will grow up.

The two of them talked and laughed, although the winery may have a long cycle to recover costs, but they are very optimistic about this investment, so a little longer is a little longer, anyway, everyone is not particularly short of money now. Besides, this investment still has a lot of potential, and the land will definitely be able to maintain its value there, and there is no need to care about how much money you make now.

Two people with long-term goals now have to do a good job in the present, such as running a baby's gift party, such as studying hard to become a good father, and also including quickly decorating their baby's room. These are the main tasks of the two people now, although they have indeed done a lot of things now, but there are still more things that will follow, which is not sloppy, and it is difficult for them to completely straighten out for a while.

Although it is very inconvenient to have a big belly now, Angela and Emma are making cakes and other small snacks with great interest; They think it's not just about registering guests and receiving gifts, they can do more at the shower. In fact, they are the protagonists in such a gift shower, and many games will revolve around these pregnant women, and they are still looking forward to it, and they are more or less aware of these gift showers, so now they also have more expectations.

As for Weida, he is too lazy to talk to Angela now, so it's better to go to the horse farm; The new year has begun, anyway, Wei Da thinks that it is a new year after the Spring Festival, and New Year's Day is the New Year for Europeans and Americans. Now that the new year has begun, Chiji's new journey will also start soon, so at this time, Wei Da will also go to chat with Chiji.

The Prince of Dark Horses is even smarter and more spiritual than Chiji, but when it comes to absolute speed, it is still hard to enjoy Chiji's galloping speed on the track, Wei Da actually likes to go to the racecourse from time to time to enjoy those galloping feelings, which is still quite exciting, and Chiji likes it very much.
