Chapter 2 Breakfast
"Good morning, Uncle David, this is the newspaper you ordered, and when I came in, the postman was leaning out of the car window, trying to stuff the newspaper into the inbox."
"Really? He's only sending it now? He's late today. Thank you, Roland. ”
"Good morning, Aunt Garnetty, you have such a beautiful dress today."
"Oh, Roland, you have such a good eye. This is what your Uncle David bought for me, a New Year's gift. ”
"Good morning, Ashley, Mary, why are you two yawning? Sleepy? ”
"Hmmm......"
When Roland followed James into the other party's house, in the huge dining room, except for Elizabeth, who was not yet full of age and was sleeping upstairs, the other members were already seated: David, who had a beard and wore a gray sweatshirt, sat in the main seat, and while taking over the "Los Angeles Times", he also smiled and nodded at Roland; To his right, there are two child chairs, and Ashley and Mary, dressed identically, are lying at the table, yawning sleepily; And the middle-aged white woman who sat in the middle of them, in charge of the care, was their mother, Garneti.
The two sides have known each other for many years, and all the polite words have been saved.
With Roland and James seated, all the members arrived.
Without hesitation, he went straight to the prayer session, and when Ganetti spread the napkin to his leg, breakfast began.
Paul, the author of "Style", once cruelly revealed the fact that a hundred years ago, obesity was a sign of success, but now, obesity is a sign of the poor, fast food products, beer, and potatoes are their favorites, while the rich put more emphasis on organic, eat spirulina, and invest more money in fitness...... It's easy to get fat, but it's expensive to get thin.
As he said, a high-calorie mass meal with heavy oil and sugar will not be on the table of the Olson family at all.
What blood sausage, bacon baked beans, cheese toast scones, these are all not.
Muesli and Green Smoothie are standard on the table, while Boiled Egg, Omelette, Scramble Egg and Poached Egg are optional meals.
Of course, the omelets in Olson's house don't have the same cheese added to them as they do in restaurants.
Scrambled eggs are really just scrambled eggs in the literal sense of the word, without salt, oil or seasoning.
It seems that I have been used to eating these things since I was a child, but it is more like a difficult inability to think.
Even if there were waffles, blueberry muffins and other bread on the table, the listless Olsen sisters did not shout to eat, they had straws in their mouths, and they did not take a bite of the green milkshake, but James, who had a sweet tooth, took advantage of his parents' inattention and quietly stuffed a bagel into his mouth.
Looking at the food on the table, Roland felt a little emotional.
Although the taste of these things tends to be light, the price is enough to crush more than eighty percent of the food.
Just the green leafy vegetables and various fruits used to make a green milkshake for six people are enough for an ordinary couple to eat for a day.
Even though I'm five years younger than the guy in Chicago, the living conditions are very different. ’
He said something to himself, and then Roland sped up: swallowed a hard-boiled egg, drained a plate of scrambled eggs, poured a bowl of yogurt-soaked muss, and then in James's astonished eyes, he also picked up a bottle of green milkshake.
"Roland, how do I feel that your appetite has improved?"
"You've never eaten so much before."
Roland's movements can't be hidden from others at all.
After witnessing Roland's combat effectiveness, James, who was extremely distressed, suddenly came to his senses.
In fact, since half a month ago, he felt that the other party seemed to be a different person.
Not only has his personality become cheerful, but even his appetite has increased.
You know, the two of them go to the same school.
In the past, when I had lunch, the potato chunks and mashed potatoes on Roland's plate were all eaten with his help!
Whale swallowed like now?
Not at all!
Got a better appetite?
Roland raised an eyebrow, he also noticed the problem.
Regardless of his previous life or this life, he is not the big stomach king Randy who can devour everything by reversing the brim of his hat.
In his previous life, he ate at most one bowl of shou in the morning, and the original owner of the body, that is, the amount of an egg added to a bowl of musli.
But now, after so many things in his stomach, he still feels that there is still room in his stomach.
"Could it be that after crossing over, I have the talent of Uncle Swallow? ’
Of course, this kind of nonsensical speculation, he is just thinking about it.
The real Roland, who was nowhere to be found, left him with a room full of comic books.
Marvel, DC, these are all covered, in addition, the dark horse comics that were only founded in 86 years are also collected.
With these things here, he still doesn't want to think about it on the Meiman high martial plane.
But, it doesn't matter if you don't want to, things have to be explained.
Feeling the concerned gazes cast by Aunt Garnetty and Uncle David, Roland opened his mouth and came.
"Probably ......"
"It's because Aunt Garneti is a very good cook, right?"
"Although they are all scrambled eggs, they are different from those sold in restaurants outside (no oil, no salt, no seasoning)."
"And this green milkshake, sweet and sour, feels good to drink......"
Hearing this, James's face froze.
It's a pity that he didn't go to a mother.
Otherwise, he would definitely find that Roland at this moment was like a second-generation big flower who tasted Jiang Feng's cooking skills.
Oh! My good brother, I'm afraid you didn't get kicked in the head by a donkey, right?
My mom made it so much grass! How can you still eat the smell of meat?
However, Roland's words made the Olsons at the table laugh.
Same with James.
Since last month, they have noticed that Roland has changed.
It's become more lively, more cheerful, and more talkative.
It's a pity that the current charity world peace is only a few months greater than Roland's.
Otherwise, they would definitely think that Roland was opened up by the other party's elbow to the second pulse of Ren Du, and unlike the bearded man who comprehended the writing wheel, what he had was the strongest mouth.
"James, look at Roland, he's as tall as you, but definitely not as heavy as you."
"Do you know why?"
"Because Roland doesn't eat those high-calorie foods."
"Look at how healthy he is now, he doesn't have all the fat on your body at all."
"I've told you many times that green milkshakes are delicious, but you don't want to try them."
The act of lecturing children is common in every country.
It's a pity that Garneti is a white man, and he doesn't have the talent of a black person for chanting, so he doesn't rhyme at all.
But even so, the large passage of words made James pout.
looked at Roland, and then retracted his gaze.
With one hand on his cheek, he glanced at the plate, and the food without oil and water made him uninterested.
Why is Roland not as heavy as me?
Isn't it because he doesn't eat much of the school's lunch?
You let him nibble on two burgers a day to try!
It's strange not to be horizontal!
It seems that he thinks that it is not good to preach in the morning, but it is more like he is maintaining his son's self-esteem, and after seeing that his wife is chattering, David, who was sitting in the main seat, wiped his mouth with a napkin, coughed, and interrupted the other party's words.
"James, it's okay to like meat, just exercise more."
"Ganetti, you put oranges and cashews in your milkshake today? It has a sweet taste of tropical fruits. ”
"Very good, it seems that my taste and Roland are the same."
In just three sentences, he directly pressed down the family preaching.
David knows his wife, knows that she is a dancer, pays attention to eating healthy and maintaining her figure, and he also knows that his son is still young and underage, and in terms of diet, self-control is relatively poor.
The problem of the former cannot be solved, and the problem of the latter takes time.
In this way, it is the best choice to change the topic with a thin mud.
After seeing his wife silent and his son speechless, he turned his eyes to the cause of the incident, Roland.
"Roland, what I told you at the beginning of last month, how did you think about it?"
"If you want to try it, I'll come with you later?"
"Don't be nervous, it doesn't matter if you fail, it's just to have fun."
Roland's changes these days have been seen by David and remembered in his heart.
From the sluggishness when he learned that his parents were killed, to the taciturn in the back, to the sudden cheerfulness half a month ago, Roland's transformation is very similar to that of Sarah Connor, who firmly believes that Judgment Day will come.
At the beginning of the adoption, Roland, who had become silent because of the death of his parents, made David's heart worry.
To help him get out of the shadow of grief, David consulted a psychiatrist.
And the advice given by the other party is: either try to let Roland change the environment and temporarily break away from the two-point and one-line life of school and family; Either develop his hobbies and don't stay at home all day.
These two suggestions made David suddenly enlightened.
For their family, it is too simple to achieve both at the same time.
After returning home, he discussed with his wife, asked her to go out of the relationship, and gave Roland a chance to film.
The crew belongs to the life outside the two points and one line, and filming is also a way to develop people's interests and hobbies.
However, just as the couple had planned everything, at the beginning of last month, when they heard about an audition opportunity and told Roland that they would take him over to play at the beginning of next month, Roland, who had autistic tendencies, suddenly disappeared.
The taciturn Roland became cheerful, and this sudden change also made the husband and wife a little puzzled.
Now that the person is good, is it necessary to take him to the set to play?
Both David and Garnetty were a little undecided.
So this matter has been delayed again and again.
Until today.
Finalize the day of the audition.
